I think people keep describing Inzoi as “soulless” when they mean it lacks a cohesive identity…which makes sense because it’s a completely new game from a completely different culture.

alright bitches, screaming into the void again, act two of the second season just dropped and I am sobbing and inconsolable, as always, spoilers for arcane season two under the cut

-CAIT AND MADDIE?????? YOURE FUCKING KIDDING ME?????? HOW DARE THEY. the scream i scrumpt. but okay genuinely, I'm very curious how that dynamic works and started, I really am praying that it's just a casual thing and cait sort of rebounding, because to me caitvi is always gonna be endgame (side note, get it I guess, at least one of the girlies is getting laid)

-also I loved the paint the town blue music intro and how it can be interpreted and the way both sides can be seen with so much nuance but also how both sides can feel black and white about each other

-Mel being a bastard child is genuinely so funny to me with the notion that Mel didn't believe that her mother could fall in love, and now she's stuck with these freaky magic people. it's actually so interesting as it reminds me of the sorcerer class in dnd and how magic is inherent in the blood, but also, if you're a wizard, it's something you learn. as seen with Mel and the people that learn the arcane (the guy that saved baby jayce) (also the artificer which is everyone who utilises modern hextech, but specifically the inventors)

-the reuniting of Vi and Jinx!!! omg the tension, the grudge being held, but also the very clear longing for the sisterhood to be rekindled. and how this time, when Vi hits Isha (even though by accident) there's someone there to smile and ask if she's okay and to keep going. something something breaking the cycle of trauma.

-then to add onto that the fam reunion of Vi Jinx and Vander! and of course the fact that Vi chose to trust, again. despite how many times her trust has been broken and betrayed, she trusted again, and it payed off, because even if only for a couple days, she had a father back. she had a family, this time with a new younger sister addition

-and to add onto that even further!! the reunion of all of them with cait!! all of them are chosing trust and chosing forgiveness to try fight for a greater good and a future they wanted to fund!!

-the small family dynamic in the first episode that is sevika, Jinx and isha is so perfect to me. and I find it so curious that with isha, Jinx wants to leave behind revolution and violence to try and have something bordering on domestic. idk, I just love the three of them and how they would go to any end to save each other

-meeting young vander, silco, and the girls mum! it all started out so pure with so much hope. they wanted to leave a legacy and a world where you could raise children. and though they have failed initially, those children are now picking up the mantle. brimstone and blisters is an amazing phrase and goal

-small side note, I love seeing sevika try to step into a leadership role

-y'all what happened to ekko???? please, why is he on the mural?? I swear he better be in the final act. but I love to see that the fireflys are still thriving

-viktor and jayce truly are doomed yaoi and it's going to doom the whole rest of the narrative... and I kinda love that for them. all jokes aside though, it's amazing to see both of their developments and how viktor grew and created this amazing (if very uncanny valley) society (cult), and jayce, tormented by the touch of the arcane, driven close to madness, is so destructive. and despite one promoting growth, the other destruction, I'm actually not sure which one of them is in the right! like is the hexcore inherently evil and thus viktor and his community, or is Jayce delusional and going to self destruct in the worst possible way? or both! or neither! we'll see

-haha omg Jinx not being recognised and then also being laughed at for her pants

-the warden of stillwater is dead and all I can say is thank fuck 😌

-the scene in the prison! holy fuck. Jinx and sevika releasing everyone and Jinx making the sarcastic proclamation, only to be met with genuine connection from her fellow Zaunites. all of them touching her shoulder as they pass. "we see you, we know that you have done bad, we choose you, you are our hope" is what it says to me. and you can see that it really gets to Jinx, that she's having this holy shit people cherish me moment

-ambessa is amazing and awful. I don't love her but what a character she is. she's driven and corrupt and full of so much love and hate (fuck that other guy tho, the one that always stands near her who I can't be bothered to remember the name of, glad he dies, acab)

-so much diverse animation in these three episodes you absolutely love to see it! vander with his almost abstract view of the world when he's in a rage, only seeing in colours of blood red. the way that isha sees the world in her childlike sketch while reliving moments. the soft and peaceful almost watercolour sketch of vanders mind behind Warwick's animal brain. how much peace and love goes into every detail of this show will never cease to amaze me

-that one guy will never catch a break from Vi and it's the funniest running joke in the series

-Caitlyns face when Vi calls her cupcake

-the way Jinx draws her name under her eye with Vi's pitfighter paint in the same fashion as Vi's tattoo. it really says to me that Jinx still idolises her and wants to be like her sister still, no matter how much they've changed. while also accepting that there are parts of each other that neither want

-Caits character... ooh boy this one's a doozy. so yes, fascist dictator style, but we still see remorse from her. a want for things to be better for everyone. the deep desire to be able to change things for the better without mass acts of violence. but again clinging to the need for revenge. at least at the start. she still very much betrays ambessa when she sees how much pain she's willing to cause to fuel her own purpose though. I think she's come to terms with the fact that what she wants is something she has to try to achieve without becoming a monster. she's deeply flawed. she's amazingly complex. I'm in love with her. she's a cop. she's a heartbroken daughter. she wants to fix the world. she may have broken it a little under the deeply misguided tutelage of Noxus. I really can't wait to see her in the final act. especially since I believe she is going to be part of the revolution now

-Jinx calling the gauntlets bitch mittens 😂😂

-he's your father too (ouch)

-yknow, genuinely thought the pitfighter arc was gonna be longer than that but I'm not too bothered by it. I'm also really glad to see that Vi is allowed to be wrong! she is amazing but also makes a lot of mistakes, and she has people in her life that aren't afraid to call her out for her shit. I feel like a lot of people think she can do no wrong because she feels like the main protagonist, but the show continues to remind you that she's just a person, and one who is deeply fucked up by her trauma, but she is trying her best

-also just noticed the detail of the black rose having the red galaxy as their sort of ethereal plane, while viktors is a deep blue. I wonder if that's to do with the combating magics that they posses and if they are in opposition, whether thematically, morally, or any other kind of way. just thought it was cool

-also is it just me or does the dog on Vi's jacket look like a domesticated version of the wolf that Singed used to revive Vander??

-the way that both Vi and Jinx sound like their mother

-the hug? I actually cried

-and finally. omg isha why??!?!?!?!? holy fuck I know that it was desperate, but child just pulled a season one act one powder move. what is the fallout of this explosion gonna look like? are we going to lose vander for a second time? is isha gonna die? how will our main crew fare? I can't wait for the final act. it's gonna be amazing!!!

-I lied, final final thought, Cait disarming Vi was so funny (and also hot)

sorry is none of this is very articulate or if some of it is a bit repetitive, but I needed to get it out of my system. please feel free to add thoughts or even tell me if you think I've got some things wrong!

//talks about pregnancy

It's a late night thought and I probably won't remember this by morning. Thinking about the Lamb is the first god that bore a family in divinity with a former god. And since then their followers called the lamb not only the god of death, but god of birth too. Followers uttering prayers and ballads on how Lambert has shown true beauty of life and death at the same time. There's beauty in the fresh bloom of life and its aging acceptance. Hence there's a phrasing "death will be kind to you" because that's what the lamb was known for, peace in death and bring joyous livelihood.

It's a shame that their daughter was born by both of her parents' curbed agony and anger from their pasts, she would've been kinder.

Spoilers for philzs latest qsmp . Vod/stream

This is just a 3:13 thought that I had after finishing his video. I followed her. As for any misspelling, is there maybe? I'm using the microphone off my phone. And it is incredibly late, and I should be in bed. But it said I'm writing this,

This is a reminder for all the lovely crows. Most avians tend to go incredibly mad when left without their children turning more aggressive. The longer they are part and being the left with what is basically a threat, their children are dead. As well as most bird Species not doing well and confinement, with no one socializing with causing them to have depression and all source of other birdie and illnesses.

With that being said, I think philza is doing well, don't you?

It’s exhausting figuring yourself out at 36. I really thought I was done with this shit by now but alas, I’m apparently not.

It’s not like I haven’t got other shit on my mind right now - like figuring out how to get my business to survive, how to make enough money to live and other fun adult stuff like that.

I don’t have time for an internal crisis at this point, thank you very much.

Changing perspective in Good Omens

Sometimes, when I watch Good Omens, I look at a scene and wonder what that would look like from a different point of view. Let me elaborate...

Maggie: Aziraphale comes over to ask her about a song, she bursts into tears, pours out her heart about how she's in love with Nina, and her weird, generous landlord says "I'm sorry, I'm a bit out of miracles at the moment". Now, if Maggie is anything like me, she'll probably lie in bed at night, crying her eyes out, because even her kind and generous landlord thinks that it requires a mircale for anyone to fall in love with her, because onviously, she's not enough as she is.

Sitis: She's just trying to process the loss of her livelihood and children, when this entirely useless bunch of angels shows up, demanding that she praises God for giving her sheep and for promising her 7 new (?!) children. I mean, WTF! So as she's processing that, Bildad the Shuite comes in, suddenly claiming to be experienced in the realms of obstetrics, and telling her "to get started". Just imagine what's going through that woman's head in that very moment, as Bildad rubs his hands together and looks at her like he's got a plan... I mean, I certainly wouldn't turn down Bildaddy, but even I would object to the on-looking angels in that situation :-D And I'm not married or grief-stricken which might be a turn-off, let's be honest...

Ok, if I'm gonna take a cold shower to not overheat, I gotta have at least like 2mins of hot water in the middle. It soothes the soul. It calms the beast within. That's my emotional support hot water and you can pry it from my sweaty dead hands.

my god

why is working so hard? I hate my job but it's compulsory and I have to do it due to societal pressure and mild interest but it's so hard to stay simulated. Like I have played temple run for longer than ov worked why is it so hard

[uselesscookies]

I really like Kiryu as a person and a character because he is the ideal portrayal of the samurai archetype, albeit self-sacrificial and blames himself too much for things out of his control. Meanwhile, Yagami is horribly selfish and is just really difficult to like, despite his hero role.

In this essay, I will

Bruce Wayne wears stylish but old-fashioned suit jackets, specifically longer, bulkier ones to hide his physique but ALSO because the longer ones remind him of the feeling + weight of Batman's cape, in this essay I will--

AO3 tags

Here me out, I love how AO3 tags work. But, as someone with like 15 different hyperfixations I wish there was an option to include fics that have any of the things you tagged, not just all of them. It's a pain in the ass to navigate all my tabs. I want to see fics for every fandom I'm in at once!
