"we're not like other churches, we don't get caught up in earthly things like doctrine or rigid rules, we're focused on our relationship with jesus đĽ°" <- is exactly like other churches
non-denominational churches are the "i'm not like other girls" of churches
#the non denominational branch *sounds* okay in theory#like theoretically they wouldn't get caught up in doctrine or rigid rules#and theoretically the lack of church govt would allow people to be accountable to each other and not a human govt#(i know not all non denom lack govt but a lot do)#in practice though#there's this like... superiority complex#âour understanding of jesus *rises above* earthly things like man-made denominationsâ#and trust me I'm not saying church governments are effective because largely they're not#but lack of any kind of government with âall sins are equalâ bullshit#is ultimately disastrous#if someone seriously harms you but apologizes and you don't forgive them#not only are you both equally bad#since they apologized they are absolved and since *you* didn't accept it *you* are the one living in sin#all of this on top of them still having doctrine and rules#they're just socially enforced#but when they have demonized âoutsidersâ#when people outside the church are evil and wicked and selfish and incapable of love or goodness#you really can't afford other's disapproval. you can't risk being shunned#not to mention the larger punishment of losing your salvation and being tortured for all eternity#the reality is that these churches are often not any better than any other church#hell tw#ex christian#mine

"how do you enjoy *insert fandom here* I hear they're the worst"
Find the ppl who enjoy the thing you like the way you do. Ignore, mute or block the ppl who don't.
Ta-Da~
#literally just unfollowed someone posting petty snark about choices ppl made in game#their good taste in fanart isn't worth their superiority complex that THEY made BETTER CHOICES or whatever#been doing this since I was in Sailor Moon way back when#It helps a ton for Dragon age as well#and a MILLION PERCENT what I do for CR lol#I just thought adding the veil here was funny#b/c you do lose some of the magic#but at least your life isn't MISERABLE#No fandom is better than being among bad fandom TRUST me#and much like me in my own fandom space this probably will give me and 5 other ppl a chuckle XD

none of the me3 endings are clean or easy, which is a good thing because if there was some miracle solution that ended without sacrifice or loss or unpleasantness, it would take away from the weight of the narrative. but the destroy ending is the only one that doesn't feel like a trap or morally repugnant to the point where it's unjustifiable. you're forced to take up the mantle of butcher to achieve victory and peace, but at least you're not acting out of naĂŻvety, you don't turn into the very thing you vowed to destroyâor god forbid, bend the whole galaxy to your will at the atomic level.
#this is still the I hate synthesis blog#control is messed up in many ways -- I can only see it for renegade shepards with superiority complexes#'rip to the illusive man but I'M different'#but it's so funny to me that destroy is presented by the game as the renegade option when it's the only choice I could even live with makin#and synthesis -- the GREEN one -- is like the devil incarnate#I know the devs didn't think it through even a little bit. but im playing the game and IM thinking it through#Shepard's been through too much bullshit not to think it through#milky.txt

#gameofthronesedit#gotjaimelannister#jaimelannisteredit#gotedit#asoiafedit#gameofthronesdaily#lannistersource#asoiafsnet#fantasyblr#jaime lannister#got#sakshi does a thing#ttidfl*#jaime in the lannister armour.....colin farrell voice Breakfast Lunch and Fuckin Dinner#also the detailing on that is crazy like i did the studio tour two months ago and getting to see it in person. wow.#this and the house tully armour <333#ANYWAY#love this scene even though it did irrepairable damage bc people think of tywin as a sigma male even though he's kinda stupid#nevermind the A Lion Doesn't Concern Himself With jokes going around lmao the timing but yeah he's not a strategic boss he's just a bully#tywin and his superiority complex really ended up making his son a people pleaser against his own will.#that being said he was kinda real though jimbles really is a glorified bodyguard in the kingsguard. he could be doing so much more.#i hate the kingsguard as an institution like the concept of it is just. ew. a story for another day i suppose.#back to this scene - the lion does concern himself with the opinion of sheep. tywin stop lying to yourself your son read you to filth bro

Be honest, what are your thoughts on appledash? Do you hate it or its more of not a big deal
Not a big deal to me. I like it, I see all the appeals, I just personally like Rarijack more.
#ask me#anon#if you wanna know why i like rarijack more i just think they're a healthier depiction of a domestic and longterm relationship#appledash gives me the vibes of gfs that'll eventually break up#because from s1 to s8 their relationship and communication with each other on serious things never really matures or grows#they were competitive and petty in s1 and they were competitive and petty in s8#arguably worse cuz in that s8 episode their dynamic becomes so toxic they almost cause a student under their care to drown#both of them have a superiority complex that's constantly conflicting with each other and it never really gets resolved#but with rarijack there's a very clear arc of development you can follow in their character#and multiple episodes show how they'll argue and eventually come back together and apologize and communicate and work to better things#you can watch them grow to like and understand each other. in s1 aj scoffs and makes fun of rarity's work in fashion#but in a later season (after some conflict) aj says that she doesn't understand fashion but she knows it means a lot to rarity so it means#a lot to her too. and that's what love is to me. âit didn't mean anything to me until it meant something to youâ#it's genuinely really sweet and i'd argue rarijack /feels/ the most romantic out of all the main 6 ships. through arguing they grow closer#which is how it's supposed to be in relationships that last! you argue to work out your interpersonal problems and understand each other#(which is why it's genuinely kinda baffling to me that appledash ended up being canonically married because they never gave me those vibes)#but it really doesn't matter. they're cartoon horses! have fun with them

âoooouggh the eldar and the tâau think humanity are stinky and weirdâ shut up i know theyâre hiding their own xenosfuckers out there. thereâs no way in hell they aint out there.
#warhammer 40k#wh40k#i think often about the quote thatâs like#if you actually could get your mind out of the gutter youâd be the first animal to ever do so#you think none of em ever thought about it??#not to mention: you can literally Fuck Eldar in the Rogue Trader#anyway#the thought of âalienâ alienfuckers is like#interesting to me.#we know what appeals as humans. as human alienfuckers#what appeals to an eldar alienfucker. what appeals to a TAU alienfucker#alienfuckery has got to be more prevalent in tau culture surely#or maybe in eldar circles for the whole repression and superiority complexes

I'm watching through the early Phil younows for the first time and boy, we understandably harp on Dan the most for the 2012 era denial/overcompensating but Phil's contributions are fascinating. So far my highlights include:
"Dan and I don't do everything together because then we would get sick of each other...as friends" ok no one was reading into it as if you weren't friends
Him willingly reading out "would you rather marry Dan or lick a hobo" and having an extended moment of silence that lasts way too long to be casual as he fights for his life trying to figure out what to say before saying hobo and quickly trying to move on. Then Dan joins later on and he unprompted tells Dan about this. Also should be noted shortly after he answered he was like "huh weird my chat is suddenly being slow and there's nothing for me to read out" which seems a little too convenient to me
#this is an unnecessarily long post but i needed to share#and like obviously theres a part of this thats deeply sad but its also like guys come on đ#dan and phil#phan#also this isnt relevant to the other moments but he had a little speech about how he was a decent cook#and actually made his own food every day instead of just throwing something in the microwave#and i know that was true then but it feels fucking insane for mr. deliveroo to be saying that#you could tell he had a little bit of a superiority complex about it too which is so funny#oh how the times change lol#dnp watchthrough

"He's started catching fish," said the Senior Wrangler. "That means he'll come over all smug and start asking what plans we've got for making a boat at any minute, you know what he's like."
The Dean looked at some sketches he'd made on a rock.
"How hard can it be to build a boat?" he said. "People with bones in their noses build boats. And we are the end product of thousands of years of enlightenment. Building a boat is not beyond men like us, Senior Wrangler."
"Quite, Dean."
"All we have to do is search this island until we find a book with a title like Practical Boat-Building for Beginners."
"Exactly. It'll be plain sailing after that, Dean. Ahaha."

Top Tier Danny Phantom/Batman crossover things (but from someone who doesn't care about either source material)
â˘Danny being the first hero
-gives a reason for why the justice league doesn't get involved
-his actions/struggles sets a precedence for the future heroes
-theres all of these well established and famous heroes who have been through hell and back; and then they suddenly melt because that's! their! hero! Holy shit it's him!!!!
â˘Danny is summoned and what he says sounds condescending and expected of a eldritch monster, but then it cuts to him just being outrageously casual and the translation just isn't working
-there's this really cool fic of Shazam finding out about that and ends up roasting this eldritch being about it
â˘Danny and Shazam are in a justice league meeting, they're both pretending to be ancient beings instead of literal teenagers, and upon realization they back each other up without any discussion needed
â˘Danny is the son of mad scientists and it shows
-he's not a rouge himself, but he has an intimate understanding of how their tech works at glance cause he grew up with this kind of crazy
-it's just a Tuesday afternoon
â˘Danny becomes an astronaut and his powers make him a very useful resource
-there's not nearly enough of this
-in a world where aliens are a thing and space monsters are am actual threat, having Danny on the ship makes him indispensable
â˘Danny's a retired vigilante and his skills make him seem suspicious
-He's out. He's not getting dragged back in. He accidentally freaks out the local heroes at every turn
â˘Danny becomes ghost king or whatever and realizes he can fuck over grandpa-al-ghul
-so technically I haven't read a fic where that's the main concept but i want it ok
-just batman being his dad? Doesn't matter. Damien being his twin? They were never on good terms or they're secretly communicating, but that's not relevant to the plot. What's important is that he can make his grandfather go cold turkey on the Lazarus Pits and secretly gut his entire league with no one knowing what the fuck happened
-Danny's plotting and slowly executing the plan to obliterate his grandfather's legacy, with dashes of outsiders pov of watching the ancient league of assassin's being dismantled by thin air
-a conversation in which Damian is on good terms with his secret twin and he overhears his family talk about the leagues destruction: "Ah, Daniel did that" "...who?" "My twin" "Your twin!!!" "Yes. He never liked grandfather's methods, so it is hardly a surprise he did this as a ghost" "....as a ghost" "Of course. Once he was made The King of the Infinite Realms he sent a letter stating his intentions towards taking down grandfather. Sentimental fool. He visits occasionally to complain about the council" and then just walks away whole scrolling through his phone, like a normal teenager. And THIS is how they find out about the anti-ecto act.
-bonus: Danny finds out after defeating Pariah Dark that he's the ghost king and has a hysterical fit of laughter. This is how his friends find out he was a child assassin
#dpxdc#im proud of that last one ok#i thought of what little i know of canon and decided that this would be home teenage Damian would talk#like hes overly formal and a bit of superiority complex but hes not as bad as he used to be#and i believe hes thinking of if he wants to continue being a vigilante?#so yeah hes just a teenager being a little shit

oh, of course ford might have been naive for believing bill's manipulations but that doesn't exactly mean he is stupid too. sure, bill's intentions were far more different than what he told but regardless, he chose ford. out of every human he could use, he trusted ford's intelligence to build an inter-dimensional portal. and mind you, he succeeded.
"bill was using you" then what? ford was using him too. they were on a deal, actually. that means both parts get something out of it. plus, he was a little too much focused on his feelings, his admiration. if not he would've definitely realized something is off with bill.
would he though?
when bill told a story about how he cut a disrespectful garbage's head and displayed it on a square, a lesson to all, ford murmured. when bill sectioned human kind in two; people like ford & others and talked about how much of a material waste others are, how they will never understand ford and exploit his intelligence, ford thought about certain someone who looks just like him. he nodded in agreement when bill casually kept going on how it would be better if they erase out of existence.
he had similar thoughts after all. bill was just more open and violent about them. but wasn't bill always like that? ford never saw those ideas as cracks in bill's mask or slip-ups from his manipulation. he was just bill.
even now he doesn't think bill lied to him all the time because he didn't have to. ford felt himself shiver. those weren't cues for him to realize. he knew and admired bill regardless. admired him with them. admired him because of them.
#there wasn't anything off with bill#bill was just bill and ford knew that#I don't think bill was a master manipulator. no#he just hit the jackpot by choosing someone as weird as him. as twisted as him#ford was like that. I bet he didn' even bat an eye when bill was talking about the most extreme ideas and insane shits he had done#freaks#superiority complex ford go#gravity falls#the book of bill#bill chiper#ford pines#billford#but not for ship purposes. this is about billfold yeah

Would you guys burn me at the stake if I say that I think Chrysalis is actually a really important insight into Julian's character and his view on his own life and the people around him at the time it takes place. It's an episode that doesn't hold up today cause of the very ableist writing and kind of shitty moral but I think it's necessary that it's there and also occurs at the time it does in the show
I'll have a more insightful analysis on it one day cause I really want to talk about it (I want to make better researched ds9 analyses with actual clips from the show and whatnot instead of just vaguely referencing events from memory that could be completely wrong but unfortunately I do not have the time to be doing all of that. I would really like to in the future though)
#this is my ds9 hot take#I have more#ds9#ferry yaps#star trek#deep space nine#julian bashir#hiding this deeper in the tags I get why people don't like chrysalis it is definitely an uncomfortable watch#especially if you are neurodivergent or close to people who are#because of how awfully the writers handled it#but I think it does work from a canon perspective as well#even if the writers didn't intend it#it's a pretty good representation of internalised ableism#at least in my opinion#Julian doing to someone else what his parents did to him#and not realising it#is something that needed to happen to his character#in order for him to realise that his perceived moral superiority and saviour complex#is actually an issue that he needs to address#or something sorry this is kind of weak#whatever u get the idea

the peace that i feel knowing that every voice that hates on hmoney doesnât matter, and that the majority of audiences like it and want it back and so do the inventors of the ship- the actors themselvesđââď¸đââď¸ never underestimate the love a gay has for that one token âstraightâ couple.
the way that the hetty and trevor relationship compliments each of their character journeys so well without over taking their main plots and lets them be awful and human, but then also grow is so good. i need to yap more about them honestly.
#lowkey convinced every kid who hates on it just doesnât like older women#idk so many lesbians including myself love it and thatâs how i know itâs superior#but but but theyâre toxic!#âŚ.#sorry some people want their ships to actually be reflective of Adult relationships-have nuance-complexity-and show growth#instead of some self insert white gay fantasy where both characters are unrecognizable#hetty woodstone#trevor lefkowitz#ghosts cbs#also theyâre hot and some of us donât think holding hands is the dirtiest thing you can do#donât get me started on months ago seeing people say it makes trevor oocâŚliterally what show are you watching

How do I explain that I physically can't ship Hinata with other ppl bc he is such a bright cherry person and gets along with others naturally I refuse to see him with anyone other than kags in comparison of kags not getting along with ppl naturally causing complex relationships which are more interesting than any other hinata ship that isn't kghn
#haikyuu#hq#haikyuu tobio#kagehina#haikyuu shoyo#kghn#shobio#brebabbles#dint get me started on atsuhina. i will get violent#lowkey tsukikage and atsukage are so much better than tsukihina and atsuhina simply bc kage's complex relationship he has#like the mutual rivalry & respect him and atsumu have for each other unlike the twisted jealous and dislike he and oikawa had#tsuki (being a dick) teaching kags that not everyone is at 100 like him and Hinata so he learns to be more considerate#every kage ship is superior but only a few hinata ships can say the same (kenhina really)#don't get me started on atsuhina. i will get violent
