#cookie run#shadow milk cookie#shadowvanilla#pureshadow#creme university au#ive been sitting on this doodle for like a month now lord have mercy on my soul#god im mentally ill about what my friend and i did with these two#shadow milk used to be blueberry yogurt but he did a fuckin huge amount of forbidden magic in one go and it shattered his mind#so now hes unhinged as shit and insane but being around pure vanilla sometimes calms his mind#and he sometimes feels like his old self again#this is only possible because pure vanilla Did Something after the accident to try and save blueberry yogurt#cause they were pining after each other like the idiots they were#and now they are linked on a magical level#and pure vanilla is still trying to reverse the effects of the forbidden magic on the love of his life#shadow milk had no fuckin' idea but in this scene he ended up piecing some things together#i should try drawing pure vanilla's lab but omfg room drawings are not my strong point#okay ill shut the fuck up now i love them so bad

I don’t know why it just hit me now but what if it had been MIKEY who suggested in helping zog and it was Mikey who told Donnie to make the mask because Mikey is the heart so it makes perfect sense this was a Mikey arc!
Ooh, there's an idea!
Mikey certainly does connect with Zog the most - he's the one who pairs up with Zog, he's the one that screams for Zog when the Triceraton is facing off against Shredder. Mikey's even the one to name an ordinary triceratops after Zog in a later episode.
That said, I don't dislike that it was Don who suggested fixing up the breather for the poor guy. He's also very compassionate, as we see time and time again. I've noticed that Donnie's often the one to grab onto whatever civilian they're fleeing with - April, the Fugitoid, Renet etc.
Tbh, I liked how all the turtles felt kinda bad about Zog's predicament and how they handled it, to varying degrees. Leo's clearly very uncomfortable impersonating the guy's commanding officer, and it's actually Raph that screams out and tries to race after Zog when the Triceraton sacrifices himself so the turtles can escape.
As much as I feel a little bit uncomfortable with the episode - I don't like the idea of our heroes manipulating a delusional enemy into helping them - I can at least say that the Turtles all showed compassion for Zog in some ways.
#tmnt#teenage mutant ninja turtles#tmnt 2003#precious mutuals#nightwatcherraph#It's a little like Legion's loyalty mission in Mass Effect 2#Where you have the choice to reprogram the wayward geth or destroy them#Reprogramming them is presented as the Paragon option#And I kinda hate that#Even if someone is doing a bad thing#I don't believe in essentially brainwashing them to join your cause#If the roles were reversed it would be horrifying#But it's OK if it's our heroes doing it to an enemy?#Doesn't sit right with me#But that's just my feelings#Sorry for the tangent 😅#I have a LOT of feelings about that ME2 mission 😅

also I know I’ve talked about it before but it’s insane how the pokemon world works if you know anything about caves + caving irl. like I know in the pokeverse caves are so big bc lots of them are canonically(?) formed by onix burrowing so there’s big rooms and tunnels you can actually walk through but not all of the little side paths that exist are like that. and yeah you’ve got pokemon to help you but again. little side passages and not everyone’s fuckoff massive mon is gonna fit in every space… also how dangerous it would be to set off earthquake or rock slide underground????? great way to collapse the ceiling on you. no wonder “rock smash” as an HM is specifically taught bc while lots of mons can smash through rocks with ease there’s a difference between careless destruction and selectively breaking only a small portion of something for traversal purposes without bringing down the earth on your head. like in Sinnoh there’s a whole underground - completely separate from the regular caves you dive into on the daily - that you can go down into and mine fossils n shit. also That’s Not How Volcanoes Work. sorry I’ve been watching caving videos on YouTube for the past 24 hours and it’s driving me insane with how many caves you traverse in the games and it’s just Fine. sure send out your monferno in a space where there’s barely room to walk and have it blast through a portion of some random wall and pray to god there’s no methane that needs igniting nearby.
#bc the reason you can find swinub in Fucking Caves Filled With Ice Even In The Summer is that they’re like those elephants that#go into caves to eat the minerminerals inside or whatever#and the side effect from being frequently traversed by ice types is that it just gets cold and they freeze a lot of the existing undergroun#rivers that make those icy passages#and uhh the reason that stark mountain and reversal mountain are Like That is bc heatran’s there and fucking up the natural lava patterns a#and causing magma to come to the surface n near tunnels without flooding the place#but still to a lesser degree than in canon#caves in pokemon

Do you think Catherine and Arthur of Aragon had sexual intercourse?
well, yes!
#anon#ignore my url.#sorry to other anons...this one was easiest to answer lol#long story short: there are more reasons for them to have done it than reasons not to have done it.#if that...makes sense?#i feel like a lot of proponents of the reverse are operating as if the circumstances were very different#like yes; obviously is they had never lived together (or lived together for like#a week; or smth)#i'd be like yeah! probably not#but they were both pressed the importance of doing so; it was what made the marriage indissoluble. and lived together for months#and neither of them knew he was going to die at fifteen#the strongest point against is obviously that she swore otherwise#but really what we have here is the rashomon effect#one person saying X happened and one person saying Y happened#and both of these people being the only ones that know for sure#they had plenty of opportunity is what i am saying ...#anyways. i realize it is not a perfect equivalence#bcus she swore it under oath and he claimed it in a threshold (? to body servants)#but you have to consider timeline asw...she did not swear it under oath until it was to her benefit and for her defense#it is not like she swore such under oath in 1502-09#tl; dr they HAVE to have at least *tried*.#'virgo intacta' as it was (virginity is a heteronormative construct anyways but...yk) is a reach.#also the common refrain of 'well that sounds like a teenage boy boasting' re: midst of spain#for sure it does. however...#a boast and lie about the night in question#does not necessarily as a boast and lie covering the entirety of the marriage#like they may well have not consummated on the actual wedding night#they were probably exhausted and nervy#but in the following months they lived together in their own establishment...?#like. i just don't see it. barring him being gay or some sort of extreme illness causing impotence

◓ // have to know what Gloria thinks, for science!
Trading Pokemon!
Gloria is holding an apple out to N. However there's a small hole at the center of the apple where a set of eyes peer up and out at N. It seems there's an Applin inside the apple. But for one reason or another it's yet to come out of the apple itself.
"Dunt get de wrong idea! Dis In't a confession 'r anyt'ing a de sort! N-no offense. Ah'm really happy wit' Ree." She feels like she's just eating her foot now. In fact she's not sure if N even knows the Galar tradition surrounding Applin. None the less she's VERY quick to try and make sure he knows this has nothing to do with that.
"My friend who runs de Applin sanctuary asked me tuh find a kind trainer fer dis little guy. He's been havin' trouble comin' outta his shell 'round ot'er Pokemon 'nd people so tuh speak 'nd also uhh... Literally actually." She runs her finger down the edge of the apple trying to sooth the anxious Pokemon inside.
"Yew seem really kind 'nd even better wit' Pokemon. So Ah t'ought yew might be able to help him. Plus Knives 'nd Appy vouched fer yew. Would yew mind?" In all honesty if it hadn't been for her Appletun's encouragement she'd have been far more hesitant to offer anyone this Applin. But she trusted her pokemon's perspective and so she was putting that trust into N.
Wanderer N was gifted an Applin from Galar Champ Gloria!
#❃ asks ❃#♙ in character ♙#weisskunig#((I was actually just about to send this as a reverse to you when I got this ask KLFHDJKGHFKJD#I think N deserves an Applin he has Applin vibes I think it's cause he reminds me of a grass type AND dragon type#Also this is actually a big sign of trust from Gloria as she doesn't give out Applins easily or often due to the effects Applin gifting has#had on the Applin population of Galar))

Is really the only time we see Strangeglove's precious little Badillac is at the end of his music video. I mean I know it gets mentioned a little and elaborated on a little in the magazines in a page or two but. He doesn't really have that many apperences in it. Don't know why this is the first thought I think when I get time to think thoughts but okay(yes. You do. You know exactly why, Kane.)
#there is that one comic where he almost has an apperence in it and Squiff took that away from him.#I alllmost want to say there is another comic? but i refuse to believe that there is and i dont have it- or at least a pannel- saved.#I suppose there really arent any paved roads to drive something like that on.#Could not be further reverse from an off-roading vehicle. that thing was built with only show-off in mind and car shows.#unless Monstro City's roads are just. shockingly level and free of too many rocks and potholes.#And no stray nails from that indefinite construction site.#yknow. i went back to look at the music video to see if it was during the day or night.#caude if it's during the night then okay haha sneaky whatever.#and if it's during the day then okay haha i can make a joke about him blocking off the town so he could have a five second shoot.#but it is like. mid sunset. and if i remember the compass in the map correctly. it is definitely a sunset then.#cause sun rises in the east and sets in the west blah blah.#and that is one quadrillion times worse.#freaking. sunset shot in your car.#I think that perhaps the worst part is thst there IS a demographic for this that it is effective on. and that demographic is me.#if he makes me feel nice in my current glungiest of ages then he can do whatever he wants okay.#blah blah this post was supposed to end without me even saying anything in the tags blah blah#strangeglove💙💜

me, transmasc, femme, frustrated: men’s fashion sucks why have you cursed me with this bs
kpop/jpop/etc: *puts its lads into glorious outfits w shiny shit and skin showing and leather and princey-looking nonsense*
me: thank you, I owe u my life <3
#fashion#kpop#trans#transmasc#I find myself in a kpop prince outfit google image rabbit rn for sewing project moodboarding reasons and I could not be happier#yes it is 1:30am this is what dysphoria and a dancer's aversion to gym exercise makes you do ok#I refuse to live in baggy clothing for the rest of my life just cause my waist line has refused to change circumference in my 4 years of T#if it takes making a padded corset to achieve the reverse effect of waist reduction to not have to try and do whatever the heck#other beanpoles do to put on weight in muscle or fat via labourous exercise and diet changes or whatever then so be it

strongest memory of that movie is going to a daytime showing with my dad when I was 10, the only 2 people there, and learning about the history of michael jackson on the way home as he explained his theory on the connection between mj's life and depp's portrayal of willy wonka.
#he also ranted about ''bee movie'' when we went to that 2 years later#and how he disagreed with the moral that humans should be responsible for the state of the earth and work to reverse its damage#because no one should have to do anything.#also iirc he was making the point that he felt barry being punished by the narrative for wanting to stand out as individual#which caused the domino effect of the planet dying because he stepped out of line and encouraged bees to no longer work#was brainwashing the young audience to believe they should conform to how they are told to behave or suffer the consequences.#I know it's tempting to think ''based'' but believe me that was just his opinion on that particular day lol#he's a notorious flip-flopper on his political views.#he could've made it as a youtube video essayist

once i move out of my dorm i will have to recreate. the elijah door. (door where i keep putting fanart of elijah volkov). but i might make it not exclusive. but who else would go on a door...... much to consider......
#radon rambles#the effects of the benadryl are finally starting to wear off why does it last so long#the actual anti allergy part lasts. not that long. cause i have to take more the next day and sometimes my face is itchy.#anyway elijah door. who else would go on my door.#smtn smtn the reversal of the angel and the prophet. aka me when i cannot shut up about elijah (the prophet) and i am an angel of. some sort#the prophet spreads the good word usually inspired by an angel or other holy being. i spread the word of the prophet and he has inspired me#it's complicated you can ask you may not get an answer#I CAN'T EVEN TAG THIS FOR REF THE NORMAL PEOPLE ARE GONNA SEE IT

omg i was so confused trying to find a bit of dialogue on the AJPW wiki that explains the meanings behind lightside and darkside, and i even popped into the game trying to find the pop-up.... and it turns out the dialogue was from AJC.. XX"""""-O
tbh i forgot AJC had its own lightside and darkside event going on, since AJC hasnt had regular substantial updates in so long..
#creature spiritpost#i looked thru a bunch of bootleggreely's posts to see if he posted the dialogue and it helped me remember that#it was actually from AJC lol.#but its fun to scroll thru his blog and see in reverse the various story updates thru the months...#i wanted this cuz i was trying to read about the corruption in AJPW. like what causes it.#and honestly i still dont know lol i dont remember.#i think its from exposure to dark (darkside?) energies deeper into the phantom dungeons.#im guessing that an imbalance of energy in a person can cause corruption and we mainly have seen#the effects of dark corruption? but i assume there is a sort of light corruption too.

why would you joke about being a misogynist on a random post?
I have no deep explanation for you I just did it. Though I'm not sure if I'm even joking, I might have some internalized shit going on but I can't be bothered to address any of it.
#Ask#Anonymous#If people swearing up and down they're not bigoted makes them suspicious then me saying i am bigoted causes the reverse effect right?#that's how it works right

"Well, everything is going to die anyways" is such a bizarre take I'm so intrigued
I've seen "humans deserve to die because of what we've done to the earth"
Ive seen "overpopulation is an inevitability of technological advancement at this stage, and we need to counter that Malthus style"
But never such a dismissive "yeah humans are the primary cause for this current (anthopocene) extinction, we are destroying the global ecosystem. Oh well, that's life!"
Like I'm fascinated
If anyone talks with any amount of approval about the potential mass dying of humanity during climate collapse, you can punch that person in the face.
If that person is white, you can punch them twice.
(Technically, unless you are interrupted, nothing is physically stopping you from punching people who trivialize the mass murder of billions of people of color many more times. The ones or twice are just suggestions of what you could do.)
#my take:#humans are the cause of this extinction.#it is the duty of humans to stop and reverse its effects because we have the intelligence and capability to.#especially the duty of those in power#if you are reading this? you have power.#even an impoverished multiply-marginalised person has power.#some poor black trans lesbian in canada absolutely has more political power than MANY. MANY. other people globally.#the only reason to not care is if youre literally the kind of person who could witness a mass shooting in person and think'well thats life'#and in which case? fuck you. fuck you for not finding life inherently valuable. if you dont care about yourself and your loved ones dying#then what the fuck is wrong with you.#i dont think the person here thinks that way. i think theyre just. hmm..#idk how to phrase this in a polite way. still problematically callous. but like. misinformed and misunderstanding.#also like. theyre.. hmm. 'some people think the extinction event started when homo evolved.' like ok. yeah u can say that.#u can also say the colonisation of the americas happened in 10 0000 bce when agriculture was invented.#ykwim? like. is there a connection there? sure. i guess. was it the CAUSE? uh. no! absolutely not!#“musk got into political power in the states because around 5000 bc people invented money so this was gonna happen anyways” ass view

While hormonal birth control is a modern miracle and I think everyone that wants it should have free access to it (and good support to make sure they are healthy while taking it), I personally do not ever want to take it again.
And like, since I only really ever plan on having sex with committed partners ever again, if I’m in a partnership with someone that could get me pregnant and they aren’t willing to get a vasectomy to keep me from having to deal with the side effects of birth control, I do think that they probably don’t care enough about my health to be in a committed relationship with.
#yes there is nuance to this#but hormonal birth control makes me go off the rails and also causes other health issues#Where as vasectomies are quick easy reversible and without as many side effects
