would it be okay if u told me why u like aoki😭/gen😭😭😭😭BEEN TRYNA LIKE HIM FOR SO LONG I JUST CANTT but i love ur art so much so i still consume it otherwise lol
i liked tohru adachi in high school and tbh i think that alone is enough of an explanation for why i ended up liking aoki
#snap chats#haha see i told you last post's tags were relevant#anyway vLKVJEVLKAEJVLKJ IM CRYING ANON youre so funny. this is the funniest ask i coulda got thank you so much#i dont know why i like him either <- yes i do#fine lets get Real Talk about it#well first off all i thought he looked hot rolling out the elevator and i was playing the eng dub and i think his voice sounds hot there#and thats like. not athing that happens to me ever <- literally thought sawashiro was hot two frames into the game but anyway#i like politician characters. or characters that are in a position of power ESPECIALLY if they have to act like they dont suck balls#like i very much love the idea of the power of charisma and that type of thing not to mention the 'strategizing' as aoki puts it#that comes with politics. LIKE HE SUCKS DONT GET IT TWISTED HE SUCKS BUT //shrug emoji//#like its why i love the mine rggo stories i like seeing mine's thought process and how he uses his intelligence#smart's sexy to me idk what to tell you but moving on#its fun watching him lose his cool too ESP IN HIS FIGHT LMAO HE STOMPIN HIS FOOT LIKE A TODDLER SHUT UP#i also really love the arakawa family in general and thinking of aoki's relationship with each of them makes my brain explode#especially him and sawashiro that shit is painful to watch and i love it so much#i also thought him going from goth to republican was the funniest shit in the world like i howled at that AND i was distraught#aokis so interesting to me from the notion that he IS loved by his family but he has so much hatred for himself it eats him up#and as a result he cant be happy no matter what he does- how hes constantly seeking validation even if it's nothing meaningful#his lil. Dog-Eat-Dog world world belief to ichi also appealed to my edgy depressed high schooler brain. sorry.#his speech at the lockers also got to me. unfortunately. sorry everyone i empathized too hard it got too real it wasnt funny anymore#like as much as i complain bout the very end the ending is what solidified me liking aoki if not also cause of ichi's impact in those scene#plus... analyzing him and the environment around him is so much fun too....#idk reasons for why i like aoki also boil down to personal reasons. he still sucks tho so i cant be upset when people hate him LOL#i probably have more reasons or could elaborate more i love rambling but i mean. who really wants to read all that 💀💀#maybe for a character that WASNT the worst but. aoki is so LMAO#thank you for loving my art regardless :) im sorry i have to be attached to the worst guys ever

my reading of lifesteal season 4 is so personal and involved at this point that even if i was going to post more character analysis i would not know where to start. it would require footnotes to documents that don't exist. listen to luddites and lambs by everything everything and you'll get half of it though
#m#lifesteal#there is just such a compelling and clear thematic line between like. okay#first you need to just accept for me the idea that zam as a character is defined by being trapped running both towards and away from#the same object (mapicc)#and then you have to take mapicc as interchangeable with pain in general but specifically an inescapable normalcy of pain#which is caught up in something zam wants and knows he wants which is the “pure/natural” idyllic version of lifesteal#where every fight is fair competition#and what mapicc has done to hurt him more than the actual stalking and murder and all of that is that mapicc refused to fight him on even#ground (by literally invading and destroying his home so that everything becomes battlefield) in a way that offends his most deeply#held values. AND THEN he reads vitalasy's use of the exploits as trying to take that same thing he fundamentally values about lifesteal#away and he gets incredibly angry with vitalasy for hurting the server itself (pvp becomes functionally obsolete for a while there)#so he plays out the eclipse betrayal framing it in his own mind as another situation where he is the victim and vitalasy is the#manipulator/aggressor and falls back into the kind of jumpy paranoid behavior we as the viewer haven't actually seen from him in a very#long time now (late into eclipse when mapicc isn't an active threat anymore he really does stop jumping at shadows the way he used to)#and seems comforted by the familiarity of it if anything. because what vitalasy was asking of him that made him panic and reject it so#badly was to create a new pattern and step out onto unknown ground but he can't do it#and he retreats back to what he knows. so vitalasy isn't WRONG to read what zam does as victimizing himself#and forcing vitalasy into a villain role that is literally what he is doing#but vitalasy on the other end still has his own entire set of things he is not dealing with#and so the relationship created by these two people is doomed by their inability to look themselves in the eye more than any of the actual#facts of the relationship itself#and the thing zam wants lifesteal to be is not and has never been real. the thing vitalasy wants lifesteal to be is also antithetical to#its nature they are both wrong#but zam is wrong in that he wants to return to an idealized imagined past that does not actually exist#(see also vague historical allusions in his castle and his name and him trying after vi's death to cast off violence completely and return#to the land somehow. and the association created incidentally between stone tools and rudimentary technology)#and vitalasy is wrong in that he's trying to create something entirely new that nobody but him actually wants via the exploit#(see the way that once the exploit is 'out of the box' it can't be put back in and the course of the season is set in motion and any attemp#s to fight it and change that course are futile as allegorical to sudden technological advancement being met with violent opposition)

i need to post about palestine on facebook but i'm fucking terrified
#i went to a very jewish college and a very decent percentage of my fb 'friends' are jewish zionists.#i don't use fb often but when i've checked recently‚ i've found a handful of pro-israel posts‚ and they've been well-received.#i have seen one person put a palestine frame on their profile picture. they got a small‚ mostly positive but some negative‚ response.#that's all the reference i have here.#and very importantly: i feel like pretty much anything i say is going to be received as goysplaining.#i think my best bet is to stay away from historical arguments (like‚ yes palestine does actually exist‚ yes it was bad to force them off of#their land in the first place‚ etc)#and also avoid my personal feelings on this re: my relationship with judaism (which is integral to the message i want to send but w/e)#and focus on israel's very obvious current indefensible actions.#however. i feel like i'm doing the movement a disservice if i don't call for a free palestine and explain what that actually means.#but doing that would increase my risk of getting dogpiled from 'high' to 'inevitable'.#and i am not articulate!!! people might try to rebut me‚ and i am very bad at debate!!!!!!! i have multiple anxiety disorders!!!!!!#and people get fired over this kind of thing. i know the chance is small‚ but i don't know if i want to risk my career over this.#my gut is telling me to wait until i'm sure. but i don't know if or when that will happen.#i want to change *someone's* mind‚ but idk if i'll even be able to do that. maybe just my uninformed hometown gentile friends'.#i want to do this before it's 'too late'. but what does 'too late' mean here? my fb friends aren't launching the missiles.#i suppose my goal is to help turn the tide of public opinion‚ in the hopes that that'll affect the politicians/corps at play here.#but maybe i'm more likely to do that by marching. making posters. talking to acquaintances. who knows what else.#just because i don't *see* those minds change doesn't mean they're not changing. maybe those minds are actually more likely to change.#txt

*tries to talk about Amane and the significance of her trauma* Aaaaaand English language is a fuck all of a sudden
#she's so important to me man#kotoko guilty bc how does she also not see that kid as another Lucky#HOW she was so so so used and abused and mistreated#godddd why did she go thru all that it's like an “if you know you know” thing but#I SHOULD BE LETTING PPL KNOW#i've never regretted a vote harder than my first take on Amane but that was before i Knew#tbh i think magic deliberately frames her as someone who willfully hurt someone innocent bc that's how she felt#she felt that it was her fault her friend and her cat got hurt#and when purge march showed us that her “victim” was no victim at all...#bro i think we actually had a breakdown#i feel so much about this project but not in an unhealthy way you know?#well as healthy as possible#it's helping us process a lot of things i just wish we could speak on it more coherently

"ugh connor is so aggressive he's a killing machine all he does is murder people" actually he's my sweet syrup pie and also haytham is right there putting him in the splash zone.
#᛭ out of patience ( ooc. )#|| IT ALL SMACKS OF. WELL YOU KNOW!#|| PROLONG YOUR LIFE DON'T READ YOUTUBE COMMENTS.#|| IT'S A FESTERING HELL IN THERE.#|| for real the framing of connor as unreasonable and aggressive and haytham as suave and high minded is racism at work.#|| it's painting connor as an angry brown man when he constantly seeks a peaceful solution and argues for less bloodshed.#|| and the 'give me lee' thing is overblown like not only did charles assault him and threaten to kill him.#|| but he's always around slinging slurs and showing himself to be the kind of person-#|| -who if given power would ruin connor's entire way of life.#|| he assaults him again in prison he talks shit including slandering connor to his village.#|| he gets people killed at monmouth.#|| and i've read the lee history and have a lot to say but just in connor's case.#|| wanting this dude dead is reasonable and he's not a vengeful freak who only craves blood.#|| YOU KNOW WHO IS THOUGH. HAYTHAM. HAYTHAM. HAYTHAM.#|| EVERY ACCUSATION HURLED AT CONNOR IS TRUE OF HAYTHAM.#|| REMEMBER THAT CONNOR PROMISES TO SPARE PEOPLE HAYTHAM THEN KILLS.#|| HAYTHAM IS THE ONE WHO DOES NOT GIVE A SHIT. AND HE'S THE FIRST TO ACKNOWLEDGE AS MUCH.

i just finished saw v and i don't have high hopes for the rest of the franchise (based on what ive heard) but im in too deep to stop now
#no i haven't enjoyed the last two no i don't expect to get much out of the next five or so movies. but i need to know.#i guess saw v mightve suffered bc i watched it basically immediately after iv#something i didnt do with any of the others#but i was told v was one of the good ones so i was looking forward to it. i dont think it was burnout yknow#but uh. i didn't like it. i think i liked iv more honestly. strahm and hoffman do absolutely nothing for me#i liked the traps. that was it though#it felt so pointless and empty. it was the first one where i genuinely wondered why they made it. why did they decide to keep going with#this. i think ii and iv both function more/better as setup for their following films but like. at least iii was pretty good yknow#like both amanda and hoffman's accomplicing feels kinda retconned in but at least amanda's an interesting character#what does hoffman have. what does strahm have. nothing. and no i don't think they have much in the way of homoeroticism either.#i don't tend to be so negative and im sorry if someone goes in the saw tags and feels bad about me talking shit about something they like#because i know that doesn't feel good. honestly i'd love to hear why people like v. maybe it'll change my opinion of it if i look at it a#different way yknow? but for now im just annoyed by it. iv was engaging in the moment but very forgettable#i liked riggs well enough but we barely learned a thing about him. he wasn't a deep character at all and i think that's a shame#but v was just a paperwork-based cat and mouse chase. 90 minutes and it still felt like they were wasting my time#why did strahm go to the old trap locations? i don't think he found anything out there. likr it was just a framing device for the flashback#but he didn't actually have a reason to go there. waste of my time#not an original critique im sure but saw ii on seems to be more focused on scale and layers of shit (i.e. having two games going at once)#than using the traps to examine the characters. i mean you go from two guys in a bathroom for a couple hours#learning about who they are gradually at a slow pace vs like 8 people in a house plus cop stuff plus 90 second traps of dubious fairness#hoffman has no real relationship with kramer (unlike amanda) and basically everyone who'd been following jigsaw is dead and so are jigsaw#and (presumably) amanda. what am i supposed to be here for? the vague outline of a saw trap? the type of torture happening?#im not even opposed to that per se but frankly the more they focus on the cops surrounding this shit the less fun it is#why are you making all the traps like 15 seconds long and tied to characters who aren't the primary focus. it's saw#ughh i miss adam. i miss amanda. hell i miss kramer and he was pretty present in this one (flashbackwise)#whateverrr. anyway that poll comparing chainshippng shotgunnshippng and coffinshippng where shotgun was last? lesbophobic.#im only half joking about that. im sure ppl have their reasons for coffin but i also think it's the tendency fandom bias for “two white guy#ships. but hey maybe vi and onwards will add more context to that that'll make me reconsider. i mean i wouldn't have liked the amanda#accomplice thing That much if i'd only seen ii. i think iii really makes it mesh better and it leads to fun character stuff#(though i still think i would've liked it more bc like. amanda was always grateful to jigsaw right? again hoffman comes outta nowhere)

Whiz Comics (1940) #2
#it stands out to me that in this first story Billy doesn’t tell Mr. Morris about Captain Marvel#in later issues it becomes that Billy is particularly associated with Captain Marvel#even though he does talk about other things on the radio#because he’s the one breaking all of the stories about Captain Marvel’s exploits#of which there are a lot#and I do remember the narration once saying that Billy carefully words his broadcasts to not reveal his true relationship to Captain Marvel#but that’s not actually maintained in his stories#they aren’t written in a way as to make it easy to remove the transformation as a part of the plot#and Billy’s concluding broadcast often has him referencing something that happened that relates to the true nature of their relationship#for example the last Captain Marvel panels I posted were from a story where Billy temporarily gets Cap’s powers while Cap loses them#and obviously there’s no way Billy could have told that story without acknowledging that they transform into each other#but the final panels are still Billy talking about how it was fun for him to be the one with the powers for that short time#his radio broadcasts are used as the framing device for his stories#and handling the character in this way doesn’t needlessly constrain his stories#and I don’t think it broke the suspension of disbelief for the kids back then#but it's interesting to see how that unique approach wasn't conceived immediately but formed over time#fawcett comics#billy batson#sterling morris#my posts#comic panels

what in the goddamn
#sorry i don’t usually post dumb takes i see but this one left me speechless#if you knew that you could never die you would not appreciate the things in life the same way#‘i’ll never get tired of having only good times 🤪’ and how would you know you’re having good times if you’ve never had bad?#what frame of reference is there? how would you know the meaning of non-suffering if you don’t have suffering to compare it to?#light does not exist without dark and vice versa#infinite good times do not exist you would just be existing neutral. the addition of a ‘good’ signifier implies that you have something -#to compare it to#another scenario: let’s say you’ve suffered before and magically are only able to have ‘good times’ for the rest of ur life#you would go insane.#and is it only you in this scenario? because then you wouldn’t feel grief or sadness when your loved ones die#the hurting of others would not enrage you#you would lose everyone around you because you could sympathize with no one and then not feel anything when you lose them#i genuinely can’t wrap my head around the idea that thinking death gives life meaning is ‘cope’#coping with what exactly.#the fact that everything dies at some point?#op kept arguing in the notes about how immortals would have a different perspective and frame of morals#which is just like. why are you arguing and trying to bring yourself to an immortal person’s state of mind when you know being immortal -#will literally never be achievable? this is not putting yourself in the shoes of the first person to walk on mars someday. this is -#putting yourself in the shoes of idk. a god or something#immortality will never happen why are you trying to reach the hypothetical immortality mindset#sounds like you’re the one coping with the fact that you’ll die someday#beep beep ritchie

have you tried reading john steinbeck’s the acts of king arthur and his noble knights? it’s malory’s stuff but made into more modern english.
not that i do not appreciate a good modern rewriting for ease of reading but I cannot emphasize enough that my problem with malory is not the langauge
#like. okay so the thing about Malory is that I never got past the rape of igraine#and I know why that is—i find it (i think pretty justifiably) difficult to read about rape#especially in the framing that Malory provides it in the first few pages#and that for me doesn’t make a text unreadable#but it DOES demand that I try and read it with a closer more academic eye than I usually do if I’m reading for pleasure#and the time and resources involved in finding sources to help me understand the greater context of the text#that allow me to actually engage critically with it on a decent level#is time and energy I don’t have#not to mention the time and energy involved in actually reading it closely and carefully#I’d like to! that’s the kind of thing I enjoy!#but right now I have other priorities#asks#deadboyhours

once again, dealing with the deep internal struggle of loving the human drama and also having a deep affection for the human characters and wanting them to succeed and be happy and getting all up in my 8am emotions whenever they do anything, vs rather unfortunately still loving whenever dracula swans around and bastards it up
#personal#dracula daily#do i approve of the bloody baptism? no#do i appreciate that the first thing he said was 'i will break jonathan's head like a pumpkin if you do anything? immeasurably#like yeah yeah it's very horrifying that he treats every escalation is 'look what you've made me do'#and explicitly frames anything horrible he does to these people as a punishment they've Earned by going against him#but it's also very very fun to watch because i love characters like that#i like dastardly gentleman characters that go feral when they're fed up#blame my dad he had me watch the lion king too much as a baby and i lowkey imprinted on jeremy irons as scar

rewatched mop ending it still made me cry 👍 some thoughts in the tags
#honestly now that I’ve read the manga I can decidedly say it’s the least faithful adaptation out of all the arcs which does make me a little#bummed bc it’s one you would think they would try and follow to a T bc of the weight every piece of dialogue carries. cut one thing and the#entire tone can change. I don’t like how they framed shigeo as completely violent and ‘malicious’ up until the very end. in the manga you#know from the start that both mob and shigeo have an incredibly skewed but not malicious viewpoint if that makes sense#like yeah the ritsu thing is an earlier ep but that kinda bugs me too!! it just changes the tone. and I get it it’s an anime you can’t have#like. the like despair that reigens chase had ik the manga it’s gotta be uplifting and shonen o guess lol#one more low thing then I’m done I promise. the ending is super cute and sweet but the cat bit and the angle of the cake almost make it read#like mob doesn’t rlly use his powers anymore? not entirely but it teeters on it whereas in the manga like ritsu gets him down from up high#and mob very obviously flings the cake in reigens face. like it’s not like that doesn’t happen in the ep I just don’t get why they made it#more vague bc like. that would go against the very core of the arc whatever#idk it’s a bunch of little things but they really add up imo. bc like obvs when I first watched the arc without being caught up#in the manga I enjoyed it and I still do love it!! it’s beautifully animated and it still pulls at ur emotions very effectively haha#just interesting if not a bit frustrating to think about the gravity of what was left out/changed just bc of the major focus on emotion#in this arc especially#chitchat#mp100 spoilers

hehe i can begin pokémon violet tomorrow >:3
#‘wdym by ‘CAN’’ well you see i decided to wait until the new year to start something new#i like to try to divide new experiences into neat time frames#to say ‘oh yeah i did x thing in y year’#and i wouldn’t have been able to complete it before the new year if i had started it right when i got it last week#<—- person with really normal thoughts about personal schedules#i put more limits on myself than anyone or anything else does#so this will be a 2023 game for me#peach rambles#i played 3 games for the first time in 2020 but only 2 were truly new experiences#(i had watched a playthrough of skyward sword already bc i didn’t think i’d ever get to play it. idiot that i was)#i played 2 games for the first time in 2021 (the twewys)#and i played 2 games for the first time this year without having to pay for either of them let’s goooo#as it stands i have 2 games scheduled for 2023 first being violet and then totk in may#which might consume my entire rest of the year actually#i’m gonna take my time with it because i’m so hyped and i trust nintendo to put a ton of new and amazing content in it#but at the same time i might have to take a long hiatus from tumblr altogether because it is absolutely imperative that i avoid spoilers#i’ve been waiting for the sequel to my fave game for years i have to have the experience untainted#might just have to go totally offline for the entirety of my summer break tbh!!!

My psych says I don’t like my mom or my ex because they make me vulnerable but I think it’s because they are/were both serial boundary violators. Well serial boundary violators sounds serious but I mean they are just good kind people who would not leave me alone when i ask(ed)
#i mean so am i so i dont exactly blame them but like. my mom doesnt knock used to hold me down and epilate my body doesnt take no for an#answer ever on anything unless youre MEAN to her and i dont mean anything serious i mean she asked me to go to the store with her to pick#out paint for her walls i said no she asked again i said no she asked again i said no so she went on her own and facetimed me so id help her#pick. my ex had a similar thing where if i was like hey lets not talk tomorrow im burnt out hed be like okay and then the next day early#morning he’d send a good morning text and then several more throughout the day and then we’d call at the end of the night#people do who not let you fucking breathe. i hate it. if i saw my mom less often id probably like her but her so much as sitting next to me#on the couch will have me tense and pissed. she also takes glee in hating things i like and its not a conscious or serious thing but its#really weird. ive done the same for her since i was little i dont know who did it first. like ok we’re moving our new place had wallpaper in#my room i wanted to keep it she wanted to remove it she agreed to keep it and then made plans to remove it bc she was going to get rid of it#at some point later on anyway for the house’s value or something. they removed it recently and she showed me a vid of the place and when she#gets to my room shes like hehehe its goneee like girl what the fuck is going on with you. she wouldnt let me change the decoration of my#room as a child it had to be the way she liked it. even my body had to be the way she liked it dude the epilation thing shed laugh as i#cried (in a shirt and underwear man) bc i was finally hairless. my ex was nowhere near that bad but again ZERO breathing room and whenever#id try to take some hed be like ‘’i just worry that if you take this space you’ll come back and break up with me’’ uh. yeah with that#attitude the breakup’s coming either way. he’s a good guy though just 24 and a man (both sad afflictions) he’ll shape up. or not. idk im no#t invested#he did listen to a lot of what i said just not the basic things of ‘’leave me the fuck alone sometimes’m#im annoyed that my therapist framed this as a me issue but shes right when it comes to me having trouble w vulnerability and i should just#clarify my pov here so she can change her assessment#my ex leaves me alone now. he does a great job at it i thiiink hes moved on which im happy about#i dont know if id ever want to be friends again though idk if either of us can do that#i cant. rn#i understand why he wanted so much from me though. i get it
