Attack On Titan - Final Episode

GUYS... :(((

I'M NOT EVEN THAT EMOTIONAL AND THE FINAL EP HAD ME CRYING WTFFF

bro she'll never get to have this </3

imayoshi: i’m here to offer moral support

aomine: with what morals

not to post about animorphs but tobias is very much a link situation where its like. you can think of him as a trans man and you can think of her as a trans woman and you can think of them as nb and all of them are true. but if ur thinking of him as a cis guy you are incorrect <3

Lgbt+ supporting shippers the second an aroace person says anything not 100% positive about shipping culture

Sokka: This is getting out of hand, now there are two of them

Kiyi is the only addition from the comics that I'm willing to acknowledge, however, I will happily ignore everything else abt her story. Instead she is Ozai's daughter and protecting her was what kept Ursa in hiding, at least until a year after the war when Zuko and Katara show up for The Southern Raiders pt 2: Electric Boogaloo.

You know how Ms Ji's cooking is horrendous but Yohan and Elijah (and I assume Isaac?) ate it all without complaining for what seems to be years. If she was the one to raise Yohan, that means she's been cooking in that house since he was a baby. I'm wondering then, why would Kang Jisang keep a housekeeper that can barely cook ? And apparently not say anything because to the day Gaon tries her cooking, she's not sure why the kangs stopped eating it ?

Either 1) Jisang liked her food 2) had some form of ageusia/didnt care for the taste of food, maybe as a self flagellation method idk. 3) Ms Ji's cooking wasn't always like that !

I'm thinking that maybe it was normal, nothing amazing about it but decent enough, until a bit before jisang's death or after the church fire. Elijah mentions that she's obsessed with adding healthy ingredients everywhere even if it does not match the dishes she's making. I wonder if Ms Ji does it with the intention to promote healing or something like it, especially once Elijah loses the ability to walk and Yohan has second to third degree burns on his back. Would also sort of explain why they don't dare tell her anything about it, because she was trying so hard and they didnt want to hurt her feelings by telling her upfront that the food wasnt edible..

hitting a little too close to home,

whenever i read fics i always end up thinkin of a song for the fic or like, th chapter and then i canr stop associating the fic w/ those songs

If leander "good" end is him dying (breaking free from his fucked up cycle), then imagining MC having to mourn and live on without him

life after seeing people start waking up and stop idolizing elitism and celebrity culture, feeding their pockets while the working class and third world countries suffer..is the human revolution near?

inspired by that post, anyway some characters i think are trans

ID: a line graph titled 'transsexual headcanons spectrum'. on the far left is "oh well it would be fun for them to be trans ^___^ (closed eye smile emoticon) ( / a world where cis is the minority and Trans is the majority)". the middle is "I know them". the right is "Their lore is literally impacted by their transsexualism & I'm (edited to say not) the only one who sees it". characters on the left are ragman, karma and elektra. characters in the middle are mara sov, kiryu kazuma and moon knight. characters on the right are majima goro, baru cormorant and the martian manhunter. end ID.]

Sméagol and the Gift

'Now!' said Sam. 'At last I can deal with you!' He leaped forward with drawn blade ready for battle. But Gollum did not spring. He fell flat upon the ground and whimpered.

'Don't kill us,' he wept. 'Don't hurt us with nassty cruel steel! Let us live, yes, live just a little longer. Lost lost! We're lost. And when Precious goes we'll die, yes, die into the dust.'

Devastated by this. Just a little longer, he begs. Even though his existence is a torment. Even though the will that holds him to life is barely his own anymore. He has long outlived his time but it's such a cruelty that now the only freedom for him is in death. I'm glad Sam didn't kill him but the whole scenario is awful.

When a mortal keeps a ring of power he does not gain more life, he continues, denied natural mortality as the fear of death is amplified and twisted into fear of separation, nothing matters anymore but the keeping, the continuing. In that miserable existence there is no peace, and at its end there is no graceful goodbye to life, there is only dust. Sudden, empty, and final.

It would take murder to spare him that. Or falling with the ring into the fire.

Bilbo let it go in time (did he feel anything when it was destroyed?) Frodo is freed of it now, though the toll it extracted for the separation was at very least a finger. It was too late for Gollum for the price to be anything other than it was, and that's brutal.

If you live long enough, death is no longer the enemy. What Sauron did to Gollum ensured that it would always be the enemy, to be feared and avoided for ever, once time and the ring had fashioned it into the only escape left. Evil.

1. it’s my 24th birthday today, so my goal of being published by the time i’m 25 is now a one year looming monster, but i never specified what kind of published and am currently looking in various literary magazines that are recommended for writers who have yet to be published, so i’m surprisingly confident that i can make it work? and tbh even if whatever i write isn’t officially published before my 25th birthday, if i have someone in the process of being published then i’ll be happy!! no matter what though, i’m gonna try to be proud of myself for at least giving it my best shot!!

2. i honestly love that my birthday is on the ides of march because the ides of march meme shitposting is only a thing on tumblr but it also being my birthday makes it easier to like. be excited about the ides of march outside of tumblr. like even in person i can be like “it’s my birthday! i’m an ides of march babe (:” and if someone is like oh what’s that? or if they say something along the lines of oh like julius caesar? i can be like yep!! and even if it’s a small thing outside of tumblr it brings me immense enjoyment and amusement being able to bring it up off of tumblr

3. transportation situation has been very rough since june 2023 when i totalled my car, my gap insurance are being assholes and i ended up putting my foot down on the phone with them yesterday which i’m pretty proud of because i am NOT a confrontational person (something i’ve been working on this past year, so seeing some improvement with my ability to hold my ground and not be a pushover yesterday was very cool!!) i was told i’d get a response from them by friday next week no matter what, and if i don’t then friday of next week i will continue to wreak havoc upon them. but my moms car which i’ve been using since my accident broke down yesterday, hopefully it’s fixable but my parents were saying it might be done for, so trying to think of how i’m gonna get to work next week is kind of stressing me out lmao, but for now i’m just gonna focus on enjoying my birthday the best i can because i don’t want to start off being 24 with an overwhelming anxiety for something that won’t be a potential issue until monday. plus i already messaged my boss today to let her know that i’m going to do everything i can to make it work out but just so she’s in the loop and knows of the potential of me not being able to make my morning shifts (one of my coworkers said she’s more than happy to give me a ride for our afternoon shifts which does help relieve some of the stress!) and i told her i’d let her know for sure sunday so that if necessary she can have time to figure out someone to fill in for me in the mornings!

overall: life is weird and i ended being 23 yesterday with a shitty situation but a positive outlook and i am going to enjoy my first day of being 24 no matter what because honestly i fucking earned it. happy friday everyone, i hope it’s a good day for you and me both!

dragon age thoughts HGJHDGJHJDHG (copium until summer game fest)

i think a lot abt vivienne (and io) because vivienne to me is so interesting like i know a lot of fandom thinks that the game hates her and i think there is some truth to that but i also think a lot of fandom was mad when varric didn't side with the mages even tho he's never been pro mage so i think there is something in her character tht a lot of people miss and it's that

i think her and io's negative rship stems from the fact that io cannot stop herself from asking why vivienne is so afraid of magic and why she seems to care more about "the common folk" than she does about her fellow mages (esp as someone who, in canon it seems? has never been on the wrong side of templar treatment and even enjoyed the freedoms that mages in other parts of the world have never been able to even dream of)

like i love that part of her character i like how their upbringing/past/cultures/etc dictate their opinions. vivienne likes the circle bc she holds a position of power (and almost always has) and so she likes the status quo and wants to keep it in place u know ?

idk i like her character. i dont like that u dont rlly get a choice on whether or not her vision for the circles gets put in place or not esp if u choose the right divine for no circles but ehhh..... idk.

like i just rlly like that she's from an oppressed group of people, a marginalised and battered group of people but she doesn't agree to be part of that and even enforces that idea by thinking of "the common people" and i wonder how much she actually cares abt them bc there are two possible interpretations of ehr character (to me)

and it's that she's afraid of herself and other mages and thinks like a templar

or that she simply is using the "common folk" as a way to preserve the status quo in which she has a good amount of power and can keep that power (to keep herself safe and comfortable, mind u, i dont think she has evil plans for the subjugation of all magic? lol)

but anyways. i think fandom is so quick to jump at the throat of writers who write potentially "problematic" characters but in a world where there are so many characters with diverse cultures/backgrounds/histories/and opinions i think it's important to have those who are also less palatable and that's actually what i like abt vivienne

Is Kagerou Project discontinued, or will Mekakucity Reload ever see the light of day?

ermmm. answer is maybe to both questions.

jin doesnt WANT to stop kagerou project. its more like he was forced to. i dont know all that much about it, but he's basically in copyright jail -> cant do anything abt kagepro until he clears out legal stuff with it. i think rn kagepro belongs to a mobile game company or something LOLLLL i knew of this back in 2019 or something but i really had thought it had cleared out... it didnt. apparently it's been a problem ever since the anime released and rly sealed off in 2018 with the release of the last album. that's all i know

so for mekakucity reload, same answer. this anime and the no9 novel he announced (and he also mentioned a manga actually) wont see light of day til that whole thing blows over and jin gets the copyright sorted out.

personally im split. i kinda just want him to leave it alone... like its fine as is just stop adding stuff stop touching the characters just Stop. remember all the insane stuff he was saying... how he thinks kano would be a cop, takane would be a mom, shintaro would be a teacher and his students would become the new main characters... girl just STOP TALKING FOREVER

But also huh..no9 novel protag haruka... takane birthday reveal tease...?!?!?! GIMME. but also then i come to my senses and i still think its for the best it doesnt see light of day lol. The idea of jin ruining haruka and takane for me of all characters terrifies me. do not touch them (i KNOW theyre his characters but eugh theyre so sidelined and shit all the time and my brain is plagued with them 24/7 i know its kinda obnoxious to be possessive of someone elses characters and i dont wanna be like Theyre mine cuz theyre not but also i understand them better than anyone else in the world thank u. like no one even has the tiniest grasp over how insane i am about them. i hold my insanity back. what i show here is me with a filter. just imagine.

and like takane as a mom+novel would be set 3 years in the future.... ARE U MAKING HER A MOM AT 22/23😭😭😭LEAVE HER ALONEEEE!!!!!! i like mom takane thats cute but AT 23??? GIRL GO TO THERAPY FIRST. COP KANO? ILL KILL YOU. TEACHER SHINTARO IS FINE BUT I DONT WANT NEW CHARACTERS AT ALL EUGH STOP IT. JUST... LET IT GO JIN♥️ THANK U FOR EVERYTHING BUT♥️ NO♥️

man it must suck to be superman bc everyone he hangs out with are constantly projecting their religious trauma and/or their feelings about government overreach onto him even though he is, at heart, Just Some Guy
