I carried this thing for MONTHS with the EXPRESS PURPOSE of putting Raphael in it (knowing full well Larian wouldn't let me do that, mechanically) and I had one major miscalculation.

"I think this is the most inhuman; and human, that I've ever felt.." MUCH CAN HAPPEN IN A YEAR. IN FIVE YEARS. A DECADE. imagine how much can happen in a century. just ONE (1). How will you grow? what phases do you find? even in 5 years, you will find patterns.

I feel like debating who Loki was talking to when he said "For You" in the last episode, is missing the point of the scene. And people referring to it as "cowardly" and a "no-homo" moment is just?? Baffling to me tbh because like;

First of all, it is obviously intended to be to both of them? If they only wanted to make it about Sylvie, Mobius wouldn't be there. If they only wanted to make it about Mobius, Sylvie wouldn't be there. If they wanted to make it about everyone they would've just framed it more equally, he does do it for all his friends ("for all of us"), but they have that scene to highlight these two specific relationships. The framing is quite clear, they have him take a last look at all of his friends before going down the stairs, but Mobius and Sylvie runs after him to have a final significant moment.

Which absolutely makes sense and is consistent with the show we have seen so far, s1 and s2 combined, which is what I love about it. And it was to be honest a surprise! Going into this season, I had little hope for Loki/Mobius interactions, just didn't want to expect too much since S1 had a lot of their connection, but that could've been it. I was shocked when s2ep1 was full to the brim with Loki and Mobius scenes? And then they kept reinforcing every week that they care about each other, is a funny duo to watch, and are important to one another.

And despite this, I expected the rug to at some point be pulled, especially compared to Loki's relationship to Sylvie. No matter people's personal viewing on the show, she is still cited as a love interest by showrunners and is just portrayed as that by the narrative a lot of the time. Sidelining that, even in s2 when the romantic hints are more vague, she's still a very important person in Loki's life. She played a central part of the plot and Loki's own character development of understanding himself.

So to me, I was surprised seeing Mobius and Sylvie side by side in the end. Both being framed as The important people in Loki's life. Then, however you wanna see in what ways they are important is up to you, but they are the people he keeps coming back to for advice and self-reflection. You can frame it as "oh it should've been only been Mobius and they added Sylvie to downplay it", which, I just disagree with (If they wanted to go for explicitly canon Lokius they needed to set that up even more earlier in the season but that's a post for another day). Sylvie is still like, a constant in the narrative and driving force of s1, even if s2 changes things around a bit, and imo it would be inconsistent if she just vanished here. I guess I am used to media that downplays a meaningful dynamic between two dudes in more aggressive ways, which they absolutely could've done, and would've taken me out of the story to be honest... but they didn't, Mobius and Sylvie got to be side by side in the end and that imo validated the Loki/Mobius dynamic way more than downplays it.

TLDR; The "For you" was for both Mobius and Sylvie because why would you frame it that way otherwise, and having them side by side like that validates Lokius way more than downplays it in a "no-homo" way considering the full context of the show.

also i've been reading a lot lately this month i read

apparitions by adam pottle 5/5

hijab butch blues by lamya h (audio & physical) 5/5

lighthousekeeping by jeanette winterson 5/5

the devil thinks i'm pretty by charlene elsby 4/5

i shudder at your touch edited by michele slung 2/5

what feasts at night by t. kingfisher 4/5

the salt grows heavy by cassandra khaw 4/5

dehiscent by ashley deng 3/5

the corpse exhibition and other stories of iraq by hassan blasim 3/5

kitchen confidential by anthony bourdain (audiobook) 4/5

whipping girl by julia serano 3/5

freshwater by akwaeke emezi 5/5

blood orange by yaffa as 4/5

things have gotten worse since we last spoke and other misfortunes by eric larocca 2/5

a lot of good reads only a few bad ones.... i'm officially giving up on eric larocca i just cannot get into his work it is so overhyped which i think is part of the problem, both books i've read from them have been hugely disappointing.... i shudder at your touch was also really disappointing and really fucking dull, with a title like that i was really expecting a lot.... but it was just really boring. also i had some conflicting feelings about whipping girl i just fundamentally disagreed with some of her ideas and found the book to be really shallow (which does make sense considering it's over 15 years old and one of the First) but overall i really enjoyed the essays where she talked about her personal experiences as well as some of the history around the pathologizing of gender and transsexuality, and i can appreciate her work and the book itself and what it meant at the time it was originally published. i'm hoping to read a short history of trans misogyny by jules gill-peterson and who's afraid of gender? by judith butler soonish as well not necessarily to compare but just to absorb More.

apparitions was probably my favorite and hijab butch blues, too... i'm also really looking forward to reading more stuff by akwaeke emezi they have a new book coming out called little rot and i'm 👀

currently i'm reading:

into the drowning deep by mira grant - not sure what i'm feeling about this one yet, it's been very repetitive through the first part so i'm hoping things pick up going into part 2.

mrs. s by k. patrick - loving this i'm obsessed with it i'm nearly 50% through. definitely not going to be for everyone, they write in a very clipped style and kind of stream of consciousness as well as no dialogue markers (which i know some people get really pissy about lol)

written in bone by sue black - i'm listening on audiobook and almost done i'm hoping to finish it today while playing stardew. i love an audiobook narrated by the author and she has such a lovely voice. she fucking loves her job and has so much passion for bones and people and their stories sometimes i almost get weepy just listening to her talk about it

also i think i'm going to start crying in h mart next after written in bone... i have the physical as well so i'll probably jump between listening and reading like i did with hijab butch blues. anyways thanks for reading this post and you should tell me if you've read any good books recently 🥺👉👈

I love your art and everytime I see it I get all smily and stuff and my mood instantly increases

Also, I love your sibling headcanons and now I can't stop thinking of what sort of friendship dynamic that Mark, Grace, and Damon would have

I'm glad to hear they make you happy! found family / family stuff have always been something i rlly enjoy doing, so it (:

if u want to hear me ramble about it, i could!

personally i think mark, grace, and damon are close friends. the three of them have this sort of, hate love dynamic going on between them. grace obviously looks like she would talk shit behind your back, so does damon, and mark too, even though he acts like the way he is, its been heavily implied he's also have (?) more sass than he lets on (implied in the trial where he agrees w grace on the trial where the argument feels like it's burning down).

i'm so soft for platonic mark/damon, they have this thinking of evil thoughts n "no evil thoughts allowed" dynamic. they started out rough but they began to start developing fondness for one another. i headcanon grace / wolfgang / n mark to be close childhood friends, wolfgang is close friends w grace so he drags his closest sibling at the time (mark) to hang out with grace and him, n boom theyre the skrunklies evr

i made art of them once but I don't think i posted them here, but here u go!

i also do think grace n damon r those "really troubled siblings where they have this unresolved conflict between them but they keep in touch because they're the only family members they have left", if you can't picture it, it's basicaly like miles edegeworth an franziska von karma (they mean the world to me) (yes i also do headcanon grace n damon to be siblings)

that was so long i did NOT mean to ramble that much, but i do hope you understand where im coming from HELP

Anyways here's a sneak peek of my next com @lu-kario is working on. Free Tori titties for today<3 Look at that boob window wow lu knows me so well she always gives Tori that himbo physique 🤤

[lesbiandonnanoble]

i do think it’s crazy the way real diehard moffat fans defend moffat. he’ll literally say in an interview that his female characters were fetish material for him & admit that the way he wrote them was to fulfill his fetishes (writing for a tv show that has been targeted towards a young audience since 1963) and whenever you say his writing is sexist the hardcore moffat fans flood your replies trying to say he wrote strong empowering female characters. he literally said himself that wasn’t what he was doing

[shopcat]

You’re probably one of if not the funniest people currently active in the st fandom, and I personally share a lot of your opinions, but I don’t think I can keep following you because you tell people to kill themselves way too casually and way too often to the point where it’s legitimately upsetting (at least for me), and I don’t even consider myself to be all that sensitive to death threats, especially ones that aren’t even directed at me. Like half the time I see an original post or comment of yours I end up rolling on the floor laughing, and the other half of the I just end up feeling disturbed.

Normally I’d just unfollow and leave it at that, but other than the whole death-threats-over-fandom-bullshit thing I think you’re pretty cool, and if it was me I’d want someone to let me know.

this is kind of interesting LOL bc i understand that it's a confronting thing and i do appreciate the sentiment i guess bc i know first hand obviously i can get very caught up in being casual about saying kys in particular and i think without speaking on occasion and get caught up in anger sure. and i can apologise for that as well it's not really my intention and i'm not meaning to upset anyone to any degree. but it's also plastered like very plain to see in multiple parts of my bio and carrd and obviously posts..? that i am not seeking to be a Kind Person to people who don't deserve kindness

like yes i can definitely cut back on saying a lot of the things i do bc i don't actually like being wrapped up in anger or whatever it's not good for my brain or fostering a nice environment which is why i tend to delete a lot of those posts, but i also literally refuse to be NICE if the situation calls for it. which it .. literally almost always does in my opinion. but if you're the type of person to call "not liking racists and abuse apologists" something like "FANDOM bullshit" i don't think i want you following me either man... like yes a tag like this is meant to be confronting it's because i fucking hate them. i'm not messing around 😭

also actually the last time i even remember "suibaiting" or making "death threats" (making comments on my own private blog ...) was about a ship that included a probable minor which is something i will also never stand for and that fact is also plastered EVERYWHERE on my blog. or like when i joked about elon musk being eaten by jaguars lol..? but thanks for the resignation notice or whatever

firmly believe that if we had both stopped batman death of the maidens and grant morrison that talias character would have been like... so much fucking better by now

[gibbearish]

so like i want to talk more abt what suicidal means but the problem is "suicidal ideation presents in two general forms, active and passive. the thing most people think of as suicidal is the active version, where the person *actively* desires to be dead and/or is making a plan to get there. the passive form however gets almost no attention in media so many people experiencing it are unaware they are even depressed, much less passively suicidal. some examples: not wanting to experience death but feeling like you wouldn't mind if you didn't wake up tomorrow or just stopped existing; feeling deeply exhausted with just the entire concept of being alive; even feeling like you want to run away, change your name, and start a whole new life; none of these look like suicidal ideation to most people because they don't involve actively doing anything to get from point a to point b, especially the more abstract ones like the start a new life thing - but remember that in order to truly start a whole new life, you have to destroy your current one. it's not suicidal as in wanting to actually DIE die, it's just. wanting something close enough to scratch the itch. but just because you haven't booked the ticket doesn't mean you don't still revisit the 'vacation activities at point b' tab occasionally to daydream, yknow?" is i think very informative and specific, but its also quite long and run on-y so people are v likely to tap out like a third of the way through it, whereas "suicidal doesnt necessarily mean wanting to die" is way shorter and therefore catchier, but is also the kind of nonspecific phrasing that gets you a thousand angry anons about how you said all suicidal people are just pretending they actually want to die or some dumb shit. so it's a fun line to toe

[variousqueerthings]

the fun of having put out the "bj's moustache is gay culture" post while also headcanoning first and foremost that whatever bj is, it's not actually gay but something way funnier and more fucked up
