i know it's just bc your character doesn't talk in the og mw trilogy but the way mactavish is completely silent in mw2's final mission with price after being so talkative the entire game is just haunting

he's lost his entire team and not even price being back can cut through his grief

the whole game, he gives orders and comments on things but after losing everyone, after trying to get any kind of reassurance from price just to get a sanctimonious monologue back at him, he doesn't say a word

just shuts down, only caring about the mission, only following orders

all of his growth throughout mw2, the five years he spent becoming a captain and building his own team and the second price calls him “soap” it’s all gone; he regresses back to the sergeant

voiceless. faceless

soap

#guess who read mactavish’s journal again 🤪✌🏻#a bitch is SAD!!#also thinking about price shutting mactavish down after roach and ghost are killed #mactavish is /screaming/ /begging/ for them to respond #for any sign that theyre still alive #and price just cuts him down ‘theyre dead soap’#then the way he says he never trusted shepherd as if mactavish made a mistake trusting his superior when he had no reason to suspect him #like hes blaming him for their deaths #bc you know thats how mactavish took it #he didnt think to suspect shepherd #he overlooked his potentially for betrayal #and bc of that he lost his two closest men and the rest of his team #he already stepped aside and let price lead all bc of his horrific self doubt #and this just cements it as the right choice #when all it really does is cement his fate #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #talk to me ghost #we’re a team. ghost team #talk meta to me #captain mactavish #captain price #john soap mactavish #john price #cod mw2 #09 soap #09 price #cod 09

genuinely don't understand people who gripe about someone getting into dunmesh for m/m pairings as opposed to f/f when none of them are even close to being the main point of the series

#dungeon meshi #fandom wank #cringe! cringe! none of us are free of cringe!#yall i ... i dont know how to say this but #falin and marcille aren't a canonically romantic pairing #like there's good shit there and i happily invite you to spam my inbox on why it fucks so great as a ship #but it's not canon #and it's not even the focus of the series as a whole #gosh i feel like im saying santa isn't real #the absolute psychic damage ive been taking from these takes i stg #calling laios an “irrelevant male character”#the main character ...#insisting that every single interaction between the men in the series is underbaked and boring #do they think the concept of narrative foils was made up by fujoshis to peddle yaoi propaganda #do they think ryoko kui can't write #allow us a moment to appreciate the irony of accusing m/m shippers of tunnel visioning on one pairing and discarding the rest #that's how you know dunmesh is progressive media because the yuri shippers get to be just as obnoxious as the yaoi shippers lmao #if there's any One Relationship i would consider The Relationship it's laios and marcille since they experience the most growth #and it could not be a more obviously platonic one #yall had better not be saying you ship farcille just for clout!!#you ship it because you want to see marcille choke on falin's monster cock like a normal person

MARSHALS MORNING ROUTINE!!!! :DDD I really liked the drawing i made of him tying his hair so i colored it!! >:]

#im really proud of this you have no idea #especially the final illustartion where hes all dressed up!!#like my linework is SMOOTH and YUMMY and GLIDINGGG #Augh had to look up so much references for this HHHH BUT ITS WORTH IT #but yes i think my story is gonna be around the early 1900s? like specifcally in 1920s but i dont want to limit myself to only that period #But its been really fun researching for this!!#i know. too much about 1920s men garments now #another favorite sketch of mine is where hes laying on the couch just having woken up surrounded by wine bottles and shit #hes so loserfail <3 my wife #but yeah even if his house is a fucking mess he puts more effort into appearing proffessional to hide how much of a miserable mess #he is inside <3 #i love doing this i love it so much #i may do this for other characters? lets see!!#but for now. i shall rest. it is 3 am. as i had lost track of time😁

Substance, Shadow, and Spirit [remixed, abridged] by Tao Yuanming

#liv in the replies #patrice bergeron #boston bruins #brad marchand #do you ever think about how brad marchand said that when bergy retired he would retire or are you capable of normal thought i'm not at all #please say a gratitude for both my sanity& y'all that this poem (which has been saved in my camera roll with the vague idea of using it for #??? long) & not one of the poems i had saved for carey for a really long time & remixed & everything with another poem until i found a poem #that absolutely murdered me in cold blood but there is an alternate universe where i did& then had to explain my unhinged thoughts to you.#anyway how are we feeling about bergy retirement. pspspspsp sara & luna are y'all doing okay like. the doc title for this one was #patrice the hockey player means a lot to me but patrice the person means so much more #which is why the end line of the other poem was so *%"@^)! (you love / what you are) because patrice does. like he is a whole ass good huma #& now since no one asked i need to tell you all the details about everything also y'all please clap i made an edit with NO baby pictures #although i did find one & save it & minimal genres of photo i always use in edits because they're my taste & aesthetic but anyway.#when i saved the first photo and marked it as one i wanted i accidentally wrote “how will he know they love him” which is not the line but #makes me feel feral about patrice & the rest of them all had hurtful names too but also. the third picture is literally a CELLY like brad #just scored a goal & he is clinging to bergy for dear life with that shit i saved that as “oh the agony on his face for unendurable”#& yes it is one of my cliches to have a draft day picture but in my defense the lifelong bond that patrice has/d with boston deserved to be #there even if i put in the love story & YES that picture is from the 2011 playoff right below it shared joy & pain & i couldn't tell you #when the brad marchy photo for together forever is except for the fact that i saw it & just the gut punch of oh my god the way he looks at #things men will praise you for is the stanley cup. duh. but i love the contrast of “some deed” being the stanley cup but then #bergy's choice to do noble deeds (ends up still earning praise &that's my note to his efforts outside of hockey we love a supportive captai #should also mention the first two i came up with & had the photos i knew i wanted for were the first and last one alskaldk but i KNEW i #wanted chara somewhere in the paragraph about leaving & then while i was looking found the one of bergy playing tuukka on accident & yes #i do have to make goalie jokes every time. no reprieve . no dice/no deal/no goal goalies have no rest/reprieve etc etc the one that killed #me though was looking for a patrice award pic & i wanted basically the one that i got for “how will you know any will praise you” & instead #also got the picture of patrice winning the some community hero award for charity work that he does & i love him mama & of COURSE that puck #is from bergy's 1000 game who do you think I am (if you guessed sleepy and emotional about patrice you'd be right) and ALSO please be ready #for all the patrice posts/bruins posts that have been sitting in my drafts to be released on this occasion of patrice retirement #I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT TUUKKA ALSO RETIRED THAT’S WHY HE WAS ON WISE OR SIMPLE NO REPRIEVE AND THAT LATE OR SOON WAS ALWAYS GOING TO BE #CHARA BECAUSE CHARA LEFT FIRST TO GO TO THE CAPS AND THEN LEFT IN RETIRMENT HE LEFT SOON BUT NOT FOR REAL THEN LATER LEFT FOR REAL (RETIRED)

sometimes you read something for a fandom you were crazy over years ago and you encounter one of the ships you loved back then and you just think “yeahhhh…. this is still great :) way to go younger me you were so based about this actually :)”

#anyway I still care a lot about Obitine apparently #their respective commitment to their respective ideals and moral codes… the way they love each other more than life #(literally. they’re so willing to die for each other.)#and yet that never leads them to violate who they /are/ or who the other person is #Satine is willing to never see him again rather than ask him to leave the Order. he is willing to leave the Order all she has to do is ask #they are able to rest in their love for one another bc they know the other loves them in such a way that they would never ask #for their compromise #idk this makes very little sense it’s 2 a.m. I’m delirious I have church in the morning but I wanna rewatch some Clone Wars now #hfhfhfhhdhdhdhehdhdhdhfbbdsjsjfhfj #gurt says stuff #edit: wait actually this is so funny—bc I just realized that Din Djarin and Obi-Wan are quite similar in a lot of ways #so the parallels here are incredibly funny to me for some reason. the Kryze women just have a Thing for reserved men who are #completely devoted to their religious values and would do practically anything for their adopted family huh #(ftr I don’t know if I ship DinBo or not but I do understand the appeal and I am open to the possibility of the writers play it right #still bitter about losing Cara tho. bc I was SO curious to see how Misters Filoni and Favreau were going to develop that #n I had a vague suspicion based on my knowledge of how Filonis brain and stories work that ~something~ may have been meant to happen there)

[through gritted teeth] i am so normal about this

#no no no it's just like....#the difference between just these two instances from s1 to s3 is FASCINATING to me #he's not asking in the first he's just stating a fact and he's having his belief confirmed #(by a man who's now almost definitely going to be in jail for the rest of his life -#the less extreme of the worst case options jane's had in his head but still nothing to scoff at) he's told with passion and conviction that #the revenge was worth the cost; that he doesn't regret it in the slightest; that it was 'redemptive')#and that's exactly what jane thinks that's what he's built his life around for the past - at least 5? - years #but he IS asking in the second; it's years after the first and he's not the same man he was then #he does still believe in vengeful justice i think but it's not just him that he has in mind now #there's other people to consider - people that found their way into his head and his heart (despite any of his efforts to the contrary)#and he's asking this question to a man who's just been cleared of all charges (were they murder charges? idk i need to watch that ep again)#it's not just him he's thinking of now and it's not just the most concrete costs either #it's....idk it's a shift from the objective costs to the emotional costs; it's the shift from being told to asking i'm just obsessed #(also interesting that these are both men when the only time i can think of off the top of my head where he has this kind of interaction #with a woman is the s1 country club episode? the one with liz forbes? where she breaks down and says it doesn't change a thing #that's a completely new tilt to it too that's something to consider all of this actually has no point but where else am i gonna say it)#tm

Cup of China 2023 - Adam Siao Him Fa and Shoma Uno during the men’s victory ceremony

#this photo is everything to me I want to frame it put it on my wall stare at it forever #i’ve been lowkey hoping for something like this the whole off season watching adam’s ig and following him posting about his training #I love this boy and I love that he’s the kind of person who keeps quiet and works hard to get what he wants (like shoma)#and I do love his skating - his two programs were my favorite last season after shoma’s #but he really clicked for me at worlds on that first monday of practice (ik I will never shut up about this sorry)#was it the last group of men? it was pretty late and adam went in the group after shoma #and I was already shaky after seeing shoma practice with my very eyes #the way shoma practices is really like a machine - relentless and single-minded and unstoppable #and that night he was really hitting it (and popping a lot of jumps but he was still not holding back)#I think it was the night shoma did more jumping passes than the rest of the other men put together #and then adam’s group came out #and I ended up being unable to look away from adam because I saw much of the same qualities in him #and it went through my mind that of all the guys I’d seen there he was the one that reminded me the most of shoma #(lol it’s always shoma in the end isn’t it)#(and I love that shoma had already recognized his qualities too)#(I was so devastated when worlds went the way they did for adam sdghjkk)#but last season he still didn’t have what it took to fight at the same level with the guys at the top - or the consistency #that’s why this win feels so precious and meaningful #adam kept it together and delivered once more - it wasn’t just another one-time win in france #and to do it like that! tired from back to back assignments jetlagged and with boot issues!! On bad ice!!!#he knew that if shoma went clean it would have been hard or impossible for him to win #but he went for it with all he had and fought hard - i teared up towards the end because I was so worried he’d let his sp mistake get to hi #can’t wait for gpf but no matter how adam does there I’m so proud of him 😭#this was hard for me to watch because I also wanted shoma to win but I think Adam needed it more and it ended up being a deserved win #and I think it will motivate shoma for nhk and I’m so here for it! or literally: will be so there for it afsghjjfghgdh aaaaaaaaahhh #adam siao him fa #shoma uno

Accidentally unlocked one of my dad's hyperfixations earlier. Neurodivergency sweep /j

#ive been reading the book 'it's not a continent' and i mentioned how wild it was that say sudan used to be an empire #that at one point ruled egypt and i had just never heard about it #which prompted to go on a very long tangent about how he noticed the way newspapers depicted ireland in the 80s #was similar to how africa was depicted #(e.g. savage impoverished constantly war-torn)#and how the stereotypes applied to irish men of being apish and stupid and violent were later applied to black men #and about how the colonial tricks used on irish people were then applied far more brutally across the rest of the empire #and by the end i just asked him 'is this what you think about most of the time'#and he said 'yeah pretty much. i realised early on that most other people weren't interested in my weird obssessions #and just wanted to talk about footaball so i usually just think about this by myself'#my brother in christ i know where i got the neurodiversity from

i am so much happier watching shows about women actually and following more ppl who post about those shows

#txt #i keep hearing about dead b0y detectives and im like. yeah sorry not doing it i am putting a ban on shows about guys for myself #not that i was going to watch it anyway bc i have always been like this #im just tired #and kinda realized there is an...#i can't call it the earth 2 phenomenon bc they got canceled before this happened #but i'll like a show predominantly with women in power or girls but then for #future seasons they have to shake things up and focus on a guy now or shift the focus to be about boys for some reason and ughhhhh #i dont care about men sorry i have like 3.5 fiction dudes i can stand the rest can go away forever #and i would be less bitchy about it if it weren't the assumption in all fandoms forever #that if u like a show you Must care about this guy or this m/m ship or what fucking ever #from people who cant even name the female characters also in that show #but unfortunately i keep coming across those attitudes and i am sooooo tired #particularly in fandoms ive been in a While where ive had more people around who werent so male character brained #but now everyone's obsessed with whatever old man it is this time and making stuff about women apply to their silly guys etc #ur watching shows known for strong female characters. come the fuck on it's not like you can use the #excuse about them being badly written this time

I was reading a transmasc!Rex fic the other night and I just had a thought-

What if blond hair is linked to a mutation where a clone gets two copies of the X chromosome instead of an X and a Y?

Like, if hair color is sex-linked and blond is the recessive gene, and Jango just happened to have the blonde gene on his X chromosome and the dominant dark hair gene on his Y?

Then it would track that Omega is female and blond. And it would mean all the blond troopers are trans. So Rex, Crys, Thorn, any others I can't think of...

#i'm using trans as shorthand for 'what we would call biologically female but perceived by others as a man' here #personally i don't think the kaminoans would've treated XX clones any differently so they would have been 'assigned male' like all the rest #altho my preferred headcanon is actually that omega is XY but thinks of herself as female because she grew up imitating nala se #and the troopers are less assigned/raised as male than just- raised as disposable soldiers #the kaminoans call them male/men because that's what their genetic template was #but the clones never had any idea what girls were #star wars #clone troopers #trans clones #a blackat-t7t original

some talking points because I am so tired of existing in the world:

• nobody chooses to be trans • not speaking up does not automatically make you complicit • real estate investment is a scourge on society • having the option to not care is a luxury and should be treated as such

end ted talk

#I’ve just returned home from a long and drawn out work event where I had to - as usual -#navigate being the only sane person in a crowd of straight old white men (slur)#it got me thinking though. at work I am different from everybody else. in my friend groups I am different from everybody else #I have literally never been able to find ‘my people’ and I’m not sure if it’s a byproduct of me evolving into a gross social chameleon #(as a way of coping with adult life but becoming inauthentic as a result) or if I am innately alien to the rest of the human race lol #to give a simple example: nobody uses my pronouns. not even my friends. my response to that is not to ask people to respect my pronouns #but to change my pronouns so it doesn’t become a problem lol. problem solved but I am not living authentically so what’s the point really #I don’t even think it’s possible for me to be authentic - like idk who that is anymore. and nobody really cares - least of all myself lol #anyway basically everything makes me deeply unhappy and I don’t know how to fix it #I can’t remember the last time I experienced a healthy positive emotion (toxic relationship and drug induced thrills excluded lol)#life #ok to reblog

i go fairly long periods of time not actually looking @ the z°wens tag on here and every time i take a peek in i'm just like

#shut up kell #like. hello .? i'm not here to start shit i'm just baffled by the behaviours truly #they're best friends. they don't hate each other they weren't miserable together. they told a fantastic story and they deserved that moment #even though the rest of the run left a /lot/ to be desired.#but ALSO. not everything they do revolves around one another? they're separate people? they're not going to die while apart?#sz's promo from the other night had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with ko. the match he wrestled had nothing to do with ko.#he is not an accessory that comes with the ko toy. sz is an incredible performer in his own right and he deserves a singles title run #and i'm not gonna lie i was legit devastated when ko turned up on sd. they've been my main fixation this year and emotionally i wasn't ready #but it's okay. they will be okay. they're still best friends in real life. they're still gonna have each others' backs.#but their characters can and should do separate things and do so successfully. like it's okay.#everyone around here needs to get just a little bit normaller about these two. we don't know them. YOU DON'T KNOW THEM.#z°wens is rpf. please remember how rpf is meant to work. remind yourself it isn't real. it shouldn't be causing legit beef between people.#doesn't matter what you think the real “truth” is. you don't. the only people who do are the real men who portray sz and ko. and that's fine #everyone chill i'm literally begging lmfao

It's easy to see how prolific the Jostars men are. Kars and Esidisi are definitely angry. To live for thousands of years and be a warrior without love or affection. That a month after awakening from a 2,000 year nap, to become pregnant after one session of sex with a human

them damn joestars (specfically joseph)

but like

one, kars and esisidi are happily married i wouldnt say they are without love. Kars is just a crazy bitch and esisidi is the only one who can handle them

also, one session is being very modest and reserved, but also also how funny would it be if they only fucked once and he got pregnant. wham and joseph decided to give in and being like, eh its probably fine right? whams like a crazy pillar man thing its probably fine? and it was NOT

ALSO JESUS i didnt mean for the tags to get this long on this post before it was too late and i relized i was typing SO MUCH

#kinder #i feel like i waited thousands of years just to meet you #been thinkin about #joseph in my rewrite being like #OUGH #REALLY holding onto that like #initial impulse he had when he met santana to like!#beleive their not monsters and were good ppl #meeting the rest of the pillar men and being like..#oK their not good ppl but they vary in personality and goals #and wham seems much on a lot of different accounts #just loyal to kars #and his goals even if he doesnt fully share these wants #and through out my p2 rewrite #joseph and caesar being like #foils to one another #where caeser is so loyal to his family to a fault where he cannot beleive the pillar man to be good #he cannot find a shred in his heart to see them as living sentient beings and only monsters #while joseph claims to not care about his dead family who he never knew #but truely being so much like jonathan #forgiving monsters and still seeing them as ppl #just like jonathan did with his brother dio who he forgave at the end #joseph care and wants to beleive good can come out of unexpected and bad places if they try #like yes he would put his foot down and fight when he see's something he feels is wrong #but he wants to try and find the good #so joseph sneaking out to meet wham one on one a few times #first just to try and talk to him and try and get him to call off their fight #but wham set in his way only attempts to fight joseph #but once joseph clearly shows no sign of wanting to fight he back off #but joseph keeps coming back
