AUGH.

Bro the askers treat spamton so much better on that askblog.

While over here we send him drawings of his joints and tell him "go puppet boy go!"

Honestly I love seeing the difference.

LOLLL they do… and maybe a little bit of that is my fault based on the ones i choose because im really picky with the ones i do answer (being nice to him, in this case) because there are SO many people who are trying to make him feel better, but ultimately they always bring up something or other to remind him of the shit he’s gone or is going through..

..Like,, “so you know how youre always failing and you’re uh… maybe alone with the (physical) things you’re going through? Yeah? Well ive failed too. Sometimes. Hope you feel better after i just reminded you!” Kind of stuff. Obviously im very much exaggerating what people say but YIPPPEESS its like they’re trying to get him to cry or something. I appreciate their efforts and how much the care but damn i dont think that they’re thinking about how that’d sound to him, especially since his immediate thought towards things like that is that its ingenuine.

I think less of Loki’s audience wants to see him suffer. A lot of mine do. LMAO. The difference /is/ funny.

I wanted to draw misakis funny shirt so so so badly but i couldnt draw her hat for the life of me :,,,,(

Post-vacation clarity in the form of... word vomit? Sure!

First: so very lucky. So very fortunate. Grateful. That I FINALLY got to cross off a bucket-list vacation and see some massive trees and beautiful mountains. Everything I could have imagined! And it's definitely worthy of a re-visit, once time has passed and I've recovered financially.

Second: I'm so amused that my slight trepidation regarding the potential for "culture shock" was unwarranted. See, if you're a rather unsocial midwesterner schooled in the ways of "Minnesota Nice" aka Advanced Passive Aggression, you might be worried about venturing into more direct/easygoing/outgoing cultures. I was delighted to take a vacation from blatant pettiness and passive aggression during my time out west. And honestly? I miss it. San Francisco was pretty agreeable, all things considered, and I will make a point to revisit.

Third: I loved taking the train! And at the same time, I'm heartbroken for the way passenger trains have to operate in this shithole country. Please. I just want so many trains. At all hours, in every direction. And, if it's NOT TOO MUCH TROUBLE, for assholes to not drag enormous tractor tires onto the tracks. (Fuck you, Utah.)

In conclusion: I'm so happy I went, and now I have to go through my photos while I reluctantly pick up where I left off here. And yes, California, if I can, I absolutely will be back. Thanks for having us.

I CANNOTTTTTT stop thinking about the if lestat had come to New Orleans 13 years earlier post. I cannotttttt get it out of my brain. the ways in which. lestat would be like well seemply allow me mon ami a favor for a good friend :) you musnt worry that beautiful head over finances when I am so readily available! after Louis fathers death which Louis would refuse but inevitably have a breakdown and give into (lestat would somehow engineer that breakdown btw) and inevitably he and lelstat would become involved and then EVEN MORE INEVITABLY.. FLORENCE AND LEVI AND GRACE AND PAUL WOULD BE LIVING OFF OF. LESTATS. MONEY oh and they would hate it so much they would hate it oosoooso much it would be ssosososo evil and obviously lestat hates Louis being focused on anyone but him so Sunday dinner is absolutely an unlivable experience that florence and lestat both insist on because lestat has convinced himself theyre in a battle for Louis affection and florence has her pride btw the way the family would be so. furious. bc according to them Louis is NOT BEATING THE WHITE MANS WHORE ALLEGATIONS but what else was he meant to do??? genuinely? like lestat is keeping them from losing their house and their lifestyle and all of it ...... LESTAT PAYING FOR GRACE'S WEDDING BARKBARKBARK SNARL it would be the messiest possible version of this story it would be vile and evil and everyone would hate each other so much and I would like. to. see it

The monkey chatters sharply. Marisa glares. Hateful creatures, both of them, she thinks, like broken mirrors only capable of showing the worst parts. Their worst parts have grown wild in isolation, clashing all the time. Following an impulse, she holds his gaze, then sinks to her knees, leans forward – then, after a moment of consideration, growls. Her upper lip curls to show teeth. Vocal cords strain dangerously. A menacing grumble is rolling somewhere so deep in her throat she didn't know a sound like that could be produced. Her daemon drops to all fours and mirrors the note, prowling toward her. Golden fur on his neck bristles, he even paws at the ground a couple of times as if aiming for a blow. He wouldn't dare, and neither would she, but both feel rabid for wanting to. Snarling, they inch the distance between them and stare at each other, face to face – repulsive, repulsed, and ugly.

Marisa x daemon + exiled together, in wait of a trial after Edward's death.

i love the sinking old sanctuary so damn much. especially the original bloodlines rendition, which is my favorite. something about the way it works with the genesis soundchip just sounds so... ethereal to me.

can't overlook the two other renditions of the song either.

Thinking about how Schaffrillas Productions' videos are in essence a guy choosing to make videos rambling about whatever game or movie he loves, and people are here for it.

He reviewed the Pikmin games. He ranked all the Mario Kart tracks from each of the main entries in the series. He did a 6 part super-retrospective of Bojack Horseman. He does rankings of animation studios' outputs. He does analyses of Wario as a character, and uncovered a conspiracy about why Toad Factory from Mario Kart Wii never returned in later games. And unless the topic is something I wanna watch later, I'm always ready to pull up a new video of his to watch. You can just feel the passion he has for those properties, how he can acknowledge their flaws but also sing the praises of their quality. It's so clear that these are videos he wants to make, because they inspire him.

(Also I just love how his style of humor involves him splicing quotes from random shows into his scripts, like some sort of video echolalia. It's shocking how close his style of humor is to mine, it makes me feel seen)

Whenever I think of his channel it makes me want to make my own video essays, to talk about all the things that *I* love, even if they're the most niche things ever. I want to talk about my favorite game franchise that 20 people in the world are aware of. I want to make videos ranking songs that *I* listened to in like 2016. I want to make a video about how level editors in games are one of the most important features in games to me. I want to ramble endlessly about things that matter to me, try (mayhaps in vain) to communicate why I love the things I do, and have even just a handful of people love it and be here for it all.

tl;dr: I love how Schaf can just talk about things he loves in his videos, and it inspires me to want to make my own videos about things I love

i only end up leaving fandoms and never return because i forgot. like i deadass forgot the source material. and i dont remember being in the fandom either.

my ridiculously self-indulgent geraskier climbing au is now almost at 10k words and I have absolutely no idea how it happened

moving onto day 5 post op and it barely hurts except for when I accidentally tug on a drain but the most miserable part is the itching and the fact that I cannot shower so I just smell like old blood and plasma 😃👍

I was watching the closing ceremony again and I finally remembered why the way Zeppelin does a heart seemed familiar.... and he has the audacity to act surprised [X] [X]

I'm so horny it's insane

I already complained about this on twt but i am ever so slightly annoyed that I've been doing genshin edits for like maybe a lil longer than year and it is always met with hate and aggression and antiblackness which like I know is gonna happen and I don't really care at this point because it's just what I expect but this heizou edit its 'oh he looks so much better with a tan' or 'I prefer him darker' or 'I like him w dark skin' or even people saying it makes sense for him to be tan because he's out doing detective work (people usually fight against any reasoning i have for a character being brown and people are actually making their own reasons wow also people are actually acknowledging how pale he is canonically which like you been playing this game for at most 2 years don't lie and say you only notice the lack of diversity now ) and it's like I hardly changed his skin tone it's so very slight in comparison to what I usually do. He's probably the lightest I have ever edited a character while still giving him browner skin and it's just so much praise. Which I'm glad I'm getting I prefer positive attention over the usual slurs and ignorance but it's weird that the one time I darken a characters skin and actually am getting positive comments about that specifically is a character that I hardly even darkened.

oh my GOSH i love dahlia hawthorne like. i have such a fear of being poisoned but she is sooooo interesting to me. like GIRl what iiissss your deal…??? she killed like 3 people and didn’t get away with it and she still looked sick as hell doing it. she scares me but whenever i think about iris and her and phoenix i start FREAKING because its jus sooooo cool and interesting to ponder. im a little bit crazy i think ace attorney has returned into my interests with a vengeance.

did i mention i’ve never played a minute of aa in my life
