I feel like if you're using a lot of disposable plastic bags in your day to day life, you've gotta do something sustainable to make up for it. Like using bamboo toilet paper or eco friendly cat litter or something, yknow

Honestly I exaggerate for comedic effect, while I DO routinely use ziplock bags to hold spaghetti I cook maybe once a month and the bag itself is usually for freezer storage. I actually throw out maybe one bag a week? I DO hate washing plates and tupperware and junk but that usually just means I eat sandwiches without a plate.

I agree though that needless waste should be avoided, and I do avoid it- biodegradable bags and recyclables, empty butter tubs used to store leftovers, etc.

This said, though, not applicable necessarily for myself but for a lot of others- I feel that it's importat to remember that there are many people who legitimately NEED things like plastic straws, or catheters, or pre-packaged foods

And the idea that that's a moral failing that individuals need to personally make up for when a single billionaire blows out more CO2 in a long weekend than I will in my whole life on a superjet meet-cute in the Bolivian rainforest between humvee drag races funded by the river-polluting textiles plants they planted in a third world country to avoid EPA laws and give an entire village stillbirths and stomach cancer is an idea that those very same bigwigs have spent a LOT of time and money investing in planting in the public psyche.

Like- Glass bottles are infinitely recyclable, so why are so many drinks in plastic now? Loads of drinks manufacturers used to buy them back and clean them for re-use, so why did they stop? If they chose to make something out of a limited and environmentally irresponsible material, why is it my failing to track down a correct process of disposal for them? What if there are none in my area? Do I lobby for more recycling plants in my area? Do I set aside some of my limited time outside the pain factory of my job- which I have more than one of, thanks to rising costs of things just like that drink I just emptied- to properly dispose of this company's waste FOR them?

Say coca-cola just rolled up to your town and started dumping millions of empty plastic bottles in the street, going, "wow, you should really think about building and staffing a recycling depot, it would be really shameful of you to just put these in the trash." When companies purposefully use materials with limited lifespans- because yes, even plastic can only be reused so many times- and tell you it's your own fault if it harms the environment- that's essentially what they're doing, just with more steps.

Yes, its important to be as environmentally concious as we can in our day to day life, but responsible sustainability is not catholicism. We don't get good boy points from our lord and savior Captain Planet every time the average low-income household gathers together to hold hands and repent for a single-use plastic that allows them to access something they need.

Entire families could eat trees and shit dead lithium batteries for years and still not do as much damage to the planet as an average dye plant or braindead celebrity does in a week just for fun, and I'm mad about it

...this went on longer than intended.

TL/DR: DO recycle and minimize waste, but don't beat yourself up over the little waste you can't avoid, and follow the money.

EDIT: Part 2

​Tried out a slightly different coloring style with this one! I’ve had this in my WIPs for a while now and I was like fuck it

Also fun fact, I used to self ship a little with Nimh when I first started playing the game but I realized at some point that I’d probably be too much for him aksjsk I still like him obviously tho

I love this last snippet of all of them together with their groups. If this chapter did anything it was make me want a slice-of-life spin-off where we see these three idiots solving the stupidest low-level curse cases and somehow still fucking it up.

That truly would be my jujutsu kaisen

Oh the urge to write a Jeffrey Mason x reader oneshot where the reader is Jeff’s only “friend” cause their Dad’s work the same job and they help him dye his hair black before the whole shitshow of case 2

Man, I love Natsuya! I may not have screenshots on hand on what other lines she says, but here’s a list of some of my favs :p

-”Fuyu may be wise, but he sure is forgetful. He seems to have forgotten that we kitsune’s main power is illusion. When my clan was under attack, we combined our illusion magic together to make him think he successfully destroyed us, when really we just relocated elsewhere.”

-”I do feel sort of bad for tricking Aki, Fuyu and Haru into believing I was dead… maybe I can convince them it was just a silly prank I pulled to teach them a lesson from fighting so much. Think that’ll convince them?”

-”You know, my second choice to protect my clan was to disguise myself as a lower class worker and made up some sort of rebellion within my clan that would lead to me faking my own death. But that’s too much work for me to handle, thus why I just allowed Fuyu to raid my clan instead.”

-“To be honest, I don't really remember why a war broke out in the first place. That might be on me though for leaving the clan meeting early to go get a cup of noodles down the street.”

-”Of course I miss my fellow clan leaders. But should I really come out to reveal to them that I was alive this whole time, especially after they all have a redemption arch now? I’d say it’s better left unknown if i’m alive or not to them.”

“Hey! No time for questions! I accidentally bumped into Haru and I wasn’t able to play off the ‘the accident wasn't your fault, you have to let me go’ card long enough and now he’s chasing me. HIDE ME!”

From what I remember, Ayaka says this about Natsuya 🤔:

-“Wow, so not only did she faked her death, but also became the catalyst for a huge war to break out. Sounds like to me someone who doesn’t seem to care if she gets sent to prison for that kind of crime or not.”

-“Safe to say, you can tell who someone is just from how they treat their co-workers especially. If Natsuya was that willing to scar her friends into believing she actually died, then I’d say that says a lot about her already”

Here’s some fanart I made of her btw :3

the fact that this is still a wip and I'm posting it really says a lot on how much I like how it looks...

[woman-respecter]

realizing some people on here have maybe never seen a panda in real life bc so few western zoos have them.

Episodes 1-500 Mouri Ran's Wardrobe!

+ Films 1-11 & OVAs 1-8

(better quality images under the cut)

Wow what an update! This took a while because uh she does not rewear her outfits very often in this segment of the show, still it was fascinating to see how the style of clothes changes over this time period. Also new to this update I went through and added the smol Ran's that have appeared that I skipped over before :)

This project has been a lot of fun and I intend to continue so they'll be more to come in the future too. In the meantime I want to know people's favourites! (Or least favourites are fun too) let me know in the comments/tags!

As a final P.S I've learnt that some of her merch/promo looks are unique and I was wondering if anyone knows if there's any archive or something of references of those cause some of those are really cute and I'd like to include them.

this is Gregory and Tony on the missing poster for sure

"Feyd was already dressed for the ceremony. He lounged on their bed, chin resting in his palm, clad in his ceremonial robes of black velvet and a dark leather surcoat, smartly polished.

"I want to see you," Feyd said.

...

Paul stepped out from behind the screen, now dressed. Feyd stood, his heart thudding against his ribs with such force that he thought they might break.

The sight of him! 

He'd wanted Paul swathed in gold, or perhaps a dark, vivid purple—something opulent and befitting Paul's combined titles as husband of the na-baron of Giedi Prime, heir to House Atreides, future ruler of Caladan, cousin to the Imperial family of House Corrino, and an omega. But Paul had chosen blue—the dark blue of his first courtship gift, the whalefur coat.

The exact same shade of blue in a masterpiece of silk: a set of high-collared, floor-length robes that emphasized Paul's height and slender frame. The sleeves were long and flowing and lent him an ethereal air. Paul stood tall, with his shoulders back. Atop his head was a simple circlet of silver. Paul's dark curls framed his face, adding a hint of softness to his regal bearing."

I wanted to draw Feyd and Paul's wedding robes from my friend @saltwaterpanda's excellent fic.
