you don't understand how much i *NEED* her

Blue cut Adam to bring him back because she loves him! Parallel/anti-parallel to her giving Noah her energy again and again, bringing them back to themselves through creepy means she has to inflict some type of pain for (and then her soothing Gansey but also kiss him to death… not super well articulated but something there)

i wish we’d gotten actual flashbacks of this relationship from Y5 because you know it was sooooooo Fucked, like joker and harley quinn-type toxic…

just going off how Mirei described her past to Haruka and what one can assume about Majima’s mental state at the time… vivid image of two abused people disastrously desperate for any kind of human affection, one of them being an acutely insecure teenaged idol and the other one an adult man who spent most of his 20’s in the torment nexus. Woof. the fact the game doesn’t talk about it after the car scene is imo a huge waste of juicy character stuff

Your F/O adores you. You are their priority and they love being with you. They are so happy whenever you talk to them. They want to call you a friend or partner, no matter what happens you matter to them.

Dean would NOT listen to Rammstein. Are we all insane. Oh my god. What’s next, Marilyn Manson?

Can I just say that I love the way the music indicated it was time for Helen to stop?

There's so many markers here that she's basically won. She got the Disruptors to turn on Miles (partially, at least). She's completely trashed his showroom, almost all of the glass displays shattered on the floor. Miles is too busy looking unimpressed to try to stop her.

The Disruptors themselves have slowed down their destruction, turning to congratulate each other.

And my favorite? The music hits its crescendo and ends on a triumphant note.

The language of the score itself is telling us we're done.

But Helen isn't done. Helen isn't satisfied with this little victory. Helen is willing to "break the thing that nobody wants her to break."

Happy 413 everybody!! :D I'm so excited to finally be able to share this project I've been working on and planning since almost a year ago. Catharsis, the conclusion to both Damaras' stories.

Hope you enjoy ^u^ <3

‘elp, Old Tumblr users. Rebloging question!

Uh, Howdy! I am quite the new user compared to some of y’all, and I want to see if I can compile a little help here. For my own sake and I suppose whomever may ever run across this.

Why is rebloging so important? Why doesn’t liking suffice? The overarching questions of this! I almost completely understand Tumblrs other functions, but this one evades me. Is it due to the lack of algorithm? Some side questions are below.

Is liking and not rebloging viewed as rude? From what I have gathered, I’ve seen this is fat yes, but I understand things better when there’s an explanation and I haven’t actually found a blog compiling the dos nd donts on this particular issue! I’ve seen that it’s because users, especially artists, won’t get as much traction without a reblog, which is fair, but then what does the like function do? I thought I was being nice by liking, but I’ve seen a couple of blogs that they find it relentlessly annoying and I went “awh shit oh no”

Is there a way to keep your reblogs in a separate space? I seriously don’t want this to come off as rude, I’m just genuinely curious. I post art, myself! I’d love to show off other artists work, but I also don’t want my own stuff to get drowned out in my tirade of showering someone in the plethora of reblog hell (I can and will death scroll way too deep into artwork or fandoms; the large compiling of just everything is the reason I came here! Inspiration galore!). I’ve seen some blogs with no reblogs of others, but who say they want to be rebloged themselves and seemingly take part in the practice somewhere! Which just has me curious. Would it be rude (to standard… standards?) to use a side blog to repost instead? I understand the point is to push the posts to people who follow you, and this would technically go against that. I just want thoughts!

No clue if anyone will see this. Not actually sure what methods you’ll use to respond. But rest assured, if anyone does, you’ll be doing me a favor so I can leach off of your responding habits also because I’m a little fool who wishes to learn and interact.

Hidden Figures #1 (Wake by Richard Serra) || III.

As I continued acting out what I was feeling, slinking my way between, in and out of Wake's walls, more and more I felt the sculpture reflecting to me the experience of being an outsider in this city, in some groups I found myself among: Beautiful individuals that had come together in some kind - a lifestyle, a shared lived experience, a history - who'd stood with each other for years. Their curves and waves reflected each other; their identities tied to each other. There's room for others to pass through, to admire them, visit - but the pattern for fully entering and remaining in the group's fold is clear.

.

They, of course, don't say that to prospective joiners explicitly - just as, of course, the structures of Wake didn't expect me to become a metal structure like they were. And, of course, each individual, each wall, is unique in its own way. But as I flowed between various groups, there would always come a moment where I stepped outside of the conversation, looked around, and saw all the same figures in sync....and then myself: Present among them, but still not flush with their surfaces. I saw the shapes they made, the same shapes they may have expected me to have. And then I saw myself, sticking out from between them.

.

But later, as I looked through the photos that came from my interactions with Wake, I saw how - even as my curves and angles contrasted the figures around me - despite the feelings I felt at the time they were taken, my presence was still a meaningful element in the landscape, even when I was balled up within it. I saw how the movements and stories my body told read even clearer when projected against the mirrored figures behind me. I saw what I brought to the scenery. My physical presence may had been small but it was strong, despite its expression of vulnerability - perhaps even because of it. And from capture to capture, I saw my own worth in the photos and it reminded me of the worth I possess in real life.

.

In retrospect, I have to be grateful for those moments where I felt like, even in company, I was all alone. Because moments of solitude can also bring about moments of clarity. And as I pondered my feelings in my moments of smallness and lonesomeness amongst Wake's walls, I realized that just because I felt small, I was not insignificant. Just because I felt like I wasn't fitting in, it didn't mean I didn't know how to or that I never would because something about me wasn't right.

.

Maybe I felt like I wasn't fitting in because I wasn't supposed to. And I started to think that maybe standing out wasn't such a bad thing...

Okay so. The difference in language in how people who are personally invested in clowns and people who are studying clowns theoretically. is often. quite stark. And it often falls along these lines: people who don't love clowns focus on the violence and brutality of their acts (and the pessimism of their repeated failures). People who do love clowns tend to focus on the immortality of clowns, even when they're in violent acts, and the get-up-and-try-again spirit that they bring to their repeated failures.

I am not saying that this first researcher is wrong, but they certainly don't have the whole picture.
