#closer: obvious reasons
Text
I was tagged by @liminalhymnal and @clown-titties to post 6 albums I've been listening to. They are in no particular order:
Brainless God | Direct Hit!
Tallahassee | The Mountain Goats
My Shame is True | The Alkaline Trio
Can't Buy a Thrill | Steely Dan
The Downward Spiral | Nine Inch Nails
Goombacore: greatest hits (volumes 1-4) | marshall4
In the least binding way possible I tag: @thefeistiestworm @cheekedupwhiteboy & @youmight-know
#im adding my favorite song off each album in tags because I like talking#home to you: I think about this one whenever I have a quarter tank of gas#game shows touch our lives: gets stuck in my head#one last dance: this album added 9 months to the singers marriage and I think the last 3 songs are mostly responsible#only a fool would say that: groovy#closer: obvious reasons#the tyrannical reign of lord foog the 2st: recessioncore samples

"Do the Evolution" - Pearl Jam
#ranna word dumping#this specific lyric of the song reminded me soooo much of dutch/john and hosea/arthur#obviously john is very different from dutch but i think there is a reason why he was considered to be dutch's favourite son#john seems closer to dutch in a similar way arthur is with hosea but in a different manner i think. there is obviously a tension present#dutch is observant but only when he wants to be (otherwise i think he would have kicked micah out of the gang a long time ago)#john is just observant. he saw first-hand what happened in blackwater and is sus of dutch throughout the rest of the game#he isnt as dumb or slow as he calls himself#i read a meta about it and it explains it 1000x better than i can#as for hosea/arthur the parallels are already obvious enough#also i am quite a fan of pearl jam so teehee i had to make the selfish parallel#might make more like this idk#rdr#rdr2#red dead redemption#red dead redemption 2#arthur morgan#rdr2 arthur morgan#dutch van der linde#rdr2 dutch van der linde#john marston#rdr2 john marston#hosea matthews#rdr2 hosea matthews#outlaws for life#pearl jam

The siblings ever ‼️
#persona 5#goro akechi#futaba sakura#ame draws#the siblings theory is SO good#it’s like one of thos hc that are so good that I just made it into my own canon#like it just makes sense to me#tbf the implications of them being siblings are pretty sad#but at the same time I’d love to see them getting closer and… unpacking all of that#and generally speaking like#their canon relationship is bad for obvious reasons so this all makes this theory the most appealing to me??#like everything surrounding it is so good

I've talked before about how the way people treat suicide can be unintentionally devastating to the suicidal person, but I don't think I really ever said how to avoid that.
Speaking about suicide in how selfish it "is" ("think about how you'll transfer your pain to your loved ones!") might seem like a way to put logical sense into the suicidal person, but, honestly? It runs the risk of massively increasing their shame and guilt about being suicidal. Suicide is not inherently a revenge fantasy or a way to "get back" at someone's loved ones, so when the suicidal person is treated like a criminal of a "crime" they haven't even committed yet, you can imagine how unhelpful that can become.
Instead, if you want to point out how cherished your person is, frame their relationships as something they can keep fostering.
"Your cat will miss you :(!!!!" becomes "you and your cat seem close, right? I'm sure it's beautiful having a close friend like that!" and maybe include ways that they and their cat are close and meaningful to each other, tailored to that relationship.
That's only one example, but when you shift the focus away from why that person should repent and feel guilty for being suicidal, you can instead focus on why they would live for that reason. See how you can frame that as a positive? Whatever is keeping that person tethered should never be used as a bludgeon, I think, because then you're taking away why they're living, the positivity of why they are here. Whatever they are here for should be remembered often and honoured.
#mental health#mental health advocacy#mental health support#suicide#suicide tw#(after this i'm going to rant about being told the unhelpful narrative i included above)#when i was younger the thing i was told the most was that suicide would only transfer my pain to others...#...and is that true? maybe. was it helpful? no.#why was that unhelpful?#because i started using that as yet ANOTHER reason to feel guilty and to lash out against myself...#...because that didn't magic away my suicidality like it 'should have'...#...and that was ~obvious~ proof i didn't care enough about my loved ones to keep them out of harms way...#...and it can be really hard not to do that (give advice like that) because if you're not the suocidal person...#...you have the luxury of thinking without the burden they are labouring under...#...you can see 'logically' and make assumptions about what the other person 'needs'#it's just frustrating because i know that people like this want to help but i worry about *how* they are helping...#...in the sense that i want their efforts to actually help their person and bring them closer

Deacon loves two things: Ymber and digging himself a grave.
Fulj hates one thing: Deacon.
#my characters#waiting on some info on the next commission so i indulged in ocs today bc i doubt i will have as much time for lil comics for a bit#deacon is so devoted hes like yeah i would kill for a deity that could easily kill anything himself but yknow teehee#and fulj just did you tell him you needed therapy also does he even know youd murder in his name#deacon caught red handed haha no of course i havent told him it should be obvious enough haha.... and its in his defense not his name :c#man really does have some issues but i love him so much and hes so devoted but like. unhealthily after a while#he does in fact need a chill pill and therapy but to be fair#ymber has needed therapy for centuries and yet he just bottles it all up and suffers so#its pretty unhealthy until they yell at each other one (1) time bc they are so insecure about things and get mad over very valid reasons#but then theyre like you know what that was necessary and i still want to stay by your side if you let me#and then fulj is like dude hey sorry you seem really happy did you fu- and ymber is like no please stop there we have not#fulj just squinting cause have not is very different than will not but whatever she doesnt wanna think about that with deacon involved ew#and eventually fulj is like hey ymber im sorry to say but i really do hate deacon and i dont even know why but he makes me uncomfortable#while deacon is just. in the room. hearing this and thinking how he knows she thinks hes weird but wow that wording hurts#and ymber doesnt wanna fill in memories better forgotten by fulj which she had forcefully removed#so he just says oh well his hair and clothing are black and you had someone in the past that you might see in him and its not a pleasant en#so you know maybe its that idk#and fulj is then WHATST i was rude to him for someone i cant even remember? lame im gonna try SO HARD to be nice to him now#and deacon just still sitting there with some food like this is v awkward and i wish i could not be here for it#and later he asks ymber about who he resembled and as ymber is descibing her it clicks in deacons head and he gets really sad#that he might somehow remind fulj of the woman she loved before she was punished for loving a mortal#and he feels kinda bad pestering her so much with his curiosities about deities and he kinda gets it#the fact hes close to ymber might remind her at the core that she was once that close with a mortal if not closer#anyway story time in the tags again#im so obsessed with these peeps and i have made them suffer so much but they do all end on a happy note#its still funny and nice to me that while fulj is creeped out by deacon and doesnt like talking to him#he still expresses the most emotions to her - he tries hard to remain serious around ymber and collected and obedient at all times#and when out and about with ymber he has to be intimidating and refuses smiling but fulj?? all sunshine and smiles and emotions easy to rea#and she is just that is so weird go away i hate you

After vague blogging about fanfic and YA I will say that the issue of media for teens mixing poorly with all ages and adult media is not a problem exclusive to fanfic writers. 90% of the conflict in the star wars fandom stems from the fact that star wars’ YA and children’s media is to some degree canonically and philosophically incompatible with the mainline movies. In the movies the Jedi are unequivocally the heroes and we’re supposed to respect them even as they get backed into a terrible corner. They’re wise heroes doing their best.
In the media made for kids by necessity the adults of the Jedi order have to make absolutely wild and absurd decisions in order for the kid protagonists to get chances to do heroic stuff actual kids would find fun and exciting. This naturally puts their behavior at odds with the goals of the movies.
Add in that the movies don’t hold up to close reads because they’re intended to be fun summer blockbusters, and the fact that the Jedi are based on a fairly shallow understanding of a non-western collectivist lifestyle without nuclear families which is extremely foreign to western audiences and what do you get? Decades worth of discourse over whether the Jedi are actually good guys which can never be resolved because they're based on completely different ways of analyzing media. Worse, nobody can agree on what parts of star wars should be counted in the first place so even if you're analyzing things in the same style you might still be doomed.
#i go through phases where i'm kind of obsessed with star wars meta and discourse#so many people coming from pretty incompatible places all convinced that they're correct#and so mad at people on the other side#it's like a train wreck#on the one hand between the media aimed at kids#and the fact that george frequently chooses flow over characterization#(see: the movies do not hold up to a close read)#it's uh EXTREMELY EASY to make the argument that the jedi kind of suck if you're reading things from a watsonian perspective#and at a certain point even if you know that there are doyalist reasons for why some things are the way they are#there's so much that would have to be hand waved that you can't just use the doyalist excuse for everything#if you're trying to write fanfic#ON THE OTHER HAND#it's extremely obvious that some people are very uncomfortable#with the lack of nuclear families in the jedi order#and prefer other cultures *cough*mandalorians*cough* exclusively because they have something closer to a western family system#but the most fascinating are people who are extremely pro jedi#but like#also pull a shit ton of stuff out of the jedi apprentice books#for example#like... if you're considering those books canon in your fic then the jedi order is almost unsalvagable in a non YA context

"the study ceases to be a locked room mystery if you go crazy go stupid with it"
#umineko liveblog#battler pointedly Not considering the most obvious solution will never not be funny#like. i can't blame him too much because while weekend at kinzo's is a very well-worn whodunnit trope#from battler's perspective he can't be expecting the people around him to all Literally act like they're in a mystery novel#(the part where it gets silly is that they Are in a mystery novel and there also Are people acting under mystery novel logic)#ironically if battler bought into the witch narrative just a touch he might actually get closer with his reasoning

kawareeeeeeeeeee~~~~~~~~~
#(aka me when my acid burns randomly start throbbin’ when i bend over :( it’s very inconvenient)#in other news this week absolutely s u c k s can i trade it in for a better one—#first there was that acid spill. which. like. ouch???? but the mark is still there and is apparently very obvious. which sucks#then the day after the acid attack™️ meself and one other guy were called out under the assumption that we were doing unnecessary overtime#with the ‘unnecessary’ part running off the basis that there’s a low sample volume bc one single monday had fewer samples than usual#and we were singled out j u s t because our taxi claims for last month were through the roof due to the fact that we live across the country#like??? hellooo????? why are you treating it like it’s my fault that i have to pay upwards of $24 (at least) to get home???#and??? excuse????? why are you extrapolating the previous day’s sample volume to the previous month’s workload as a whole????#but. m a n. the way the mildly higher up lady abruptly shouted at me for asking a question just. pissed me off. for some reason.#she was talking in circles regarding the future of our taxi claims#so i asked if we (now) had to submit a second claims form for the transport company dudes to compensate us#and she yelled at me to stop talking before i could finish :( sadded and annoyed tbh#though i get the feeling that she hasn’t liked me ever since i left some results she asked for between her desk and some other guy’s desk#and someone else had placed their notebook or sth atop it so she couldn’t find it. and she blamed me for it. ha.#that was a few weeks ago though. so. hm. i wonder if she’s still mad about that…#either way. i applied for a couple of jobs that are closer to my place bc screw travelling across the country for an hour every day#s c r e w hour-long train rides i’d rather sleep#i prolly won’t even get the other jobs but. oh well. that’s life ig

currently reporting deliriously with pain meds and coffee (and procrastination)
but i had this image in my mind that si just annoying the fuck out of all slytherin cos he just keeps fucking with them and they * can't — not really* do anything to him, cause disgraced or not he's still the black heir and they have 4-5 blacks petty enough in their house that will fuck them up in ways that can't even tell how it happened.
sirus and mucilber ( or whatever that dude's name was just remember that's he's always the stupid one for any reason tho) get into a fight and mucilber does some stupid stuff and run his mouth
mucus foolishly - curses sirius with something dark and lethal
Sirius (obviously) - gets out of it and fucks up mucus with 15 creative curses.
james *sirius black 24/7 defence attorney* potter and bella *only i can try to murder sirius* black are now suddenly in cohoots like two kindergarten kids forced to be friends
cos muciber/mucus was stupid enough to whine in common room and James just has this 6th sense whenever sirus gets into a fight.
reg and cissa are researching poison for no reason at all
and Andy is just quietly looking at muggle ways to kill someone without trace cause she's progressive (and because it doesn't show on wand).
and just black family kiddies and James potter becoming unlikely friends cause of (1) sirius Orion black and that's just djfjbf
like this is obviously so crackish but imo, thai shows such a clear picture of world peace that it's just too funny to not use.
like use their power to full and all that yknow—
also snape in end just gives muciber a ticket to spain and be like - here's how you survive black family (not guaranteed)
i’m not saying i like that you’ve had to use pain meds and rely on coffee to get thru things but—
can i request these vibes in the inbox again? like, multiple times? because i am so into this.
for one, mucus is an absolutely fkn hysterical name. i just. Cannot take him seriously
and second. james & the blacks forming an unintentional alliance bc they’ve all started their own sirius black defence squad is so???? why can i literally picture it in my head 😭😭
(like i once talked about how james’ ability to inspire loyalty & devotion is so impressive he could probably be an accidental dark lord but this is just—another way to get to the same place and i love it)
#sirius black#james potter#the black family#i’m thinking like—shady back room meetings where james dresses like a terrible muggle spy#bc he thinks he’s cool when he’s rly just a dork#and passing information about various threats si is/might be facing#the blacks will take care of the darker ones and j is in charge of the closer to home/internal ones#can’t decide how sirius would react if/when he finds out tho#like all his life he thinks his best friend & family hate each other (for obvious reasons£#and then one day he walks into the house and sees all of them chatting together???#bella knows how james likes his chai???? j is passing biscuits to reg???? andy and cissa r giggling together? wtf#he kinda just about turns and walks right back out bc he just. Cannkt#Cannot*#pen’s asks#pen’s notes

have u seen the ladies?
Sure have! *drops gifs in your bucket* It's uh, it sure is a movie where two women have barely any chemistry despite presumably fucking the night before. Hopefully having more space in the full length movie they're making helps with that, but. I think it's the agegap, lol. So I dunno if it will.
