#the fact that he in particular was the one guy to get it was a punch to the gut

[wyntercherrii]

whoop si e doo

I should start using this app again,,, I never fell out of love with MCSM I love it sm still and especially Magnus,,,the silly lil guy,,, older drawing but it's like one of the ones I like the most I think

It's him with the cat on the picture frame in his wall in the temple!

I dunno if it's a reference to something (literally like the one thing about Magnus I don't know 💔 I've met Corey Feldman TWICE and I wanted to ask if he knew anything about it, probably not because he's just the VA but the fact he remembers Magnus himself and was happy to talk about him both times I've seen him was good) ANYWAYS!!!! I made it a small HC that it's Magnus' cat that he used to own before going back to Boomtown when the old order separated (he didn't want his poor cat to get blown up, so he released it into the wild so it can be wild, yeahhhh Magnus isn't too bright but we love our dumb king HAHA)

I wish there was an actual explanation to the cat portrait though, I find it silly in a good way that it's just there on his wall, and his in particular (definitely not complaining though)

ah yes, of course I have more to say. This time it's not about a specific comparison/trope, more about how angels are perceived by viewers (but also partly by writers, too, tbh).

anything about angels being ethereal and divine etc: I think sometimes the non-in-universe view warps what's canon when it comes to angels. For instance, the way we the audience commonly perceive angels sort of interferes with the in-universe depiction of said creatures. Like, maybe we see angels as ethereal, celestial, incomprehensible figures but in SPN they're anything but. We can very much understand their motives, their feelings and what their agenda is. It's totally not beyond human comprehension, as amatter of fact, it's very much human but it's also NOT human at the same time because angels don't have the same morality as humans do and their notion of "good" and "evil" is quite peculiar, if they even have one. This is also why the "halo and a harp" joke is thrown around quite a few times as a reminder that SPN angels are not "our" angels.

The same misrepresentation happens when it's about angels and love (and sex). It's pretty clear that in SPN (hashtag not all but many) angels are actually very, very, very much interested in sex and love. I'll concede that they tend to confuse obsession for love and that there's a lot of repression/suppression/sublimation/you name it going on in that department but, frankly, it's not something so inherently alien that humans can't relate to.

Anyhow, I don't think it's only the audience's fault, though, as I see SPN writers implicitly inserting their own personal view into the story as well. For example, the idea that Lucifer is the "primary agent of evil" in s14 after we've spent a whole season dealing with how God has traumatized and abused both his own sister and his own "son" and how said sister has, in return, abused and traumatized Lucifer doesn't exactly hold up. I mean, if there must be one primary agent of evil in SPN everything seemed to point to Chuck well before s14's big "reveal". Moreover, from their first appearance in S4 angels have perhaps wreaked havoc more than demons and other monsters combined. Lucifer is admittedly a big problem (among other things because he is an abuser and a general piece of shit) but he's not the only problem in paradise (lol).

Related to the first point, how Dean's in awe with Cas because he's a celestial being etc: this is something that I read in a lot of fics so it's just both my own personal taste and my fic preferences (I like when fics stick to canon as far as possible because I like to see how different minds might have developed a particular storyline) that differ from others and that's fine, to each their own. The thing is, I don't really see it. Maybe S3-4 Sam was more in awe with the idea of angels but after Lucifer I don't think the guy's particularly moved by them. As far as Dean's concerned, I actually see him hating on angels the most. Vampires can be okay, werewolves maybe, he's surprisingly okay with demons as well, but angels? He doesn't like them at all. And I mean this, this is actually interesting because out of all the creatures in the world he hates (and who have hurt him and his family) he ends up getting a best friend/consort who belongs to that particular flavor he just can't tolerate and who probably hurt him and his family the most ("Angels are just monsters with good PR"). As in: Dean finds Cas amazing because he's Cas, not because he's an angel but he IS an angel nevertheless and that alone causes some problems. It makes for a very interesting moral dilemma and an engaging angle to explore where a good chunk of their issues stems from.

The Sims is love. List 5 facts about a favorite sim couple of yours, and why you love them so much. Then pass this on to 5 others, whose sim couple(s) you also love. 💘💕 :D

eats you (affectionately) wack angles cuz i thought itd be funny (regular ones beelow)

Abel is so emotionally constipated he pays for private sessions with a particular beta camboy just to… chat and decompress, worry-free (because why would he, an alpha, fall for a random beta online?? he thinks)

if they (more like Abel) finally got serious, Abel would eventually want Meri to get a nape mark tatt’d (since betas can’t be marked naturally) but Meri would refuse to mark himself like that even if for love lol

Meri would slowly start moving into Abel’s place by leaving little things to stay undetected, till one day Abel finally realizes— more than half his closet space is gone, there’s extra shoes by the door, his bathroom seems more cluttered, and there’s no way to bring it up without a) looking stupid for taking this long to notice & b) verbally making it official they live together

Betas can’t smell pheromones and are generally immune to them, but Meri’s figured out a way nevertheless to detect when an omegas been in Abel’s flat. The air ‘feels heavier’, he says, wherever the omega’s scent was left, making it harder for Abel to bring someone over undetected

Because Abel is a dom. alpha (an Aetos no less) his sex drive is insane and constantly comes on to Meri, including in public. Meri both enjoys and dismays over this; ‘an omega would better suit him’ he thinks

so why do i love them sm?? idk, i guess i like their mutual possessiveness even with Abel's cheating ass ("but is it cheating if he never verbally confirmed theyre dating??") Like damn, guy who cant commit cuz trauma, is secretly very much in love + guy whose faked the emotions he secretly lacked all his life finally feels smthing genuine and falls hard?? yet neither believes the other genuinely loves them back?? idk i like the mutual hurt lol

F1 Drivers and why I like them (in no particular order)

This is coming from a fan that got into F1 in 2024, primarily through 'Drive To Survive' and dear-ao3's insane F1 2024 masterpost

Sir Lewis Hamilton

Hes the only one I knew from before I became a fan, 7-time world champion, best of the best, an activist, super cultured, smoking hot, seems pretty chill, great fashion sense, did I say smoking hot?

Also one half of the most compelling dynamic in f1 aka brocedes, i heard hes making a movie about this like ??? Im invested

Idc which team hes driving for im literally always cheering for him

Nico Rosberg

World champion, dad, britney, obsessed with Lewis Hamilton, very interesting in commentary box, all around cool guy

Other half of f1s most compelling dynamic

Alex Albon

Cutie patootie, also survived the red bull second seat curse for a whole year and a half so hes the most talented imo (ik checo has also done it - idc)

hes also born in the same year as me so that makes me very very biased (also delusional!!!)

Appendix-less!

Carlos Sainz

Also appendix-less!

Smooth operator

if f1 was a kpop band he would be my bias for just being my type of guy

Seems chill, handsome, funny, love his friendship with lando, his rivalry with oscar and his (faked?) dynamic with charles

Im so sad he got kicked outta ferrari but alas it was because of THE sir lewis hamilton so i cannot complain too much

Kevin Magnussen

I liked him on DTS, i think hes a girl dad?

I liked Haas as a whole, such a shame they crashed and burned for like 6 years straight

This year hes driving petty and im here for it like yes this is the entertainment im want

Im also petty as hell so I feel kinship

You gotta be the force of chaos you want to see in the world

Daniel Riccardo

My poor little meow meow he made such a bad decision leaving redbull but Hes still in an f1 car despite it all and hes always smiling and has a positive outlook so yeah props to him

I hope he gets his red bull seat back one day

Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc, Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, George Russell

I just grouped these 5 because i have the same opinion on all of them, which is that they seem like nice chill dudes, and theyre all great drivers

I do wish ferrari would stop sabotaging their boy tho, isnt charles supposed to be their little prince or something??? Act like it

I really like charles dog leo, what a cutie

Also george russell's got great style, also i like him cuz hes the drivers union president

Fernando Alonso

Force of chaos force of evil what can i say i just like villanous men (we're on tumblr what do you expect)

Lowkey hoping his car is FAST next year so he can cause problems on purpose

Valterri Bottas

Drive fast, show ass, whats not to like

Honorable Mention: Gunther Steiner

Whyd you fire him bring him back he did nothing wrong

(he did in fact do many things wrong)

(I havent mentioned anyone else from this season because I just dont know enough about them to have any opinion or I dislike them)

in terms of how pervasive the fanon perception of tim drake as this neglected/borderline abused child of the horrific drake parents who are the worst human beings to ever live, i think it largely comes from the fact that i would bet money that 90% of the people perpetuating it just didn't have two parents who both worked.

Generally I think that if you call yourself a trans ally but then go and express disappointment at somebody transitioning and altering their body to make them the most comfortable with themself, you should probably go sit on a chair made out of rusty nails.

almost every day after work i boot up PCSX2 to continue my game of Castlevania: Curse of Darkness on Trevor mode. and every time, without fail, i end up simply slow panning the camera around Trevor and sighing wistfully to myself

“Diamonds in the Mud” by Gerry Cinnamon

[algolagniaa]

yknow what else is fucked up is my dad ON PURPOSE perpetuated the cycle of abuse on me bc he was apparently a sensitive crybaby kid and his dad super abused him until he “toughened up” and turned his empathy off and got fucked up and evil. and when I was growing up he often singled me out to take the worst of his abuse and he has since told me it was because out of the three of us I reminded him the most of himself, because I was detached and intelligent but also bc I was really sensitive so he deliberately wanted to toughen me up and make me “prepared for the world” aka more like him. and it worked

[supercantaloupe]

also i swear to gd i Need to get less weird and anxious about the mere concept of talking to maestro. i have known and played with him for seven years and in that time he has been literally nothing but kind and friendly and helpful and supportive. and yet every single time i have to ask him a question (or if he comes to talk to ME or like sends me an email or something) i swear to gd my heart starts racing like i’m about to get banned from every orchestra ever or something

The Pathways Novel is the holy grail of young Tuvok characterization because I can just sense so clearly through the page how insufferable he would be to talk to
