"Because, Grogu, a short time for you is a lifetime for someone else"

Anyone else just want to cry every time they think about this quote?

[Tuvok & Janeway: Control, Distance, Duty & Connection.] Sources: St Voyager Transcripts / Mitski 'First Love Late Spring' / Disco Elysium

#web weaving #star trek web weaving #st voyager #Kathryn Janeway #Tuvok #be the change you want to see in the world - make a long post about Tuvok & Janeway's similarities <- angel on my shoulder #I feel like a lot of people see them as 'opposites attract' sort of friends where Janeway is unhinged & Tuvok reigns her in #but in reality I think that while there is that element in there (exacerbated HEAVILY by their delta quad circumstances)#what I see most in their relationship is how they both value loyalty and duty above all and are extremely rigid with themselves #and the people around them. How they both have to maintain distance from others bc of their positions as captain & vulcan #I hate when people dismiss Tuvok as not being remotely interested in Maryana or Noss - it erases an interesting struggle that he and Janewa #both share - their desire to stay loyal to their spouses vs the 70 years of loneliness that that loyalty demands of them #But they BOTH triumph and they BOTH remain loyal (Tuvok until he returns to T'Pel and Janeway until Mark informs her that it's over)#and for both of them it's a little bit insane for them to do that.#Isn't it more interesting that Janeway and Tuvok both have feelings for people other than their spouses but don't give in #to that temptation?#They're both people who live very fastidiously by codes. Either written codes or moral codes - they very rarely if ever do things because #it's what THEY want to do. I'd say they're the least emotion-driven members of the crew and yes I'm including Seven because Seven #has a very...how to describe? It's a blunt and insular selfishness. She does what SHE wants to do and doesn't really care about others.#To me that's emotion-driven. Or...personal desire-driven? Not a bad thing at all but very different from Janeway & Tuvok who #are always more 'this is logical' or 'this is for the crew' rarely do they think 'this is what I want' bc they can't afford to #for different reasons (captain & vulcan)#they both also are in the most 'caretaking' positions on the ship from my POV. Security and Captain - both are directly in charge of #ship and crew safety.#Janeway & Tuvok #star trek voyager #st voy #when I say caretaking I'm NOT saying they're everyone's mom and dad or whatever - I'm saying they're in positions where they always #have to think about the greater good and the crew as a whole and how much danger is acceptable etc etc.#Janeway is always killing herself for the crew but Tuvok is right there beside her

[pericky; a look into ricky's head during their meeting.]

---

"I'm glad you came, I wasn't sure you would." The wine pours, the sound of it drowning out the missing word in that sentence: back.

Of course, is the response, and the part of Ricky that's spent twenty years tearing itself apart to understand why vibrates with relief. It doesn't matter anymore. Of course, of course, he thinks giddily along with the words. He never needed to wonder why Pericles wasn't coming back in the first place; he was always going to.

I'm happy you invited me, and of course he thinks again. A lifetime of pretending he wasn't always going to either falls away. However harsh and lonely the world has been, all's right with it again; and the shy voice of the boy inside him that he's tried so hard to kill says, so quietly, I missed you.

#sdmi #scooby doo: mystery incorporated #pericky #ricky owens #professor pericles #anyway fucking end me actually. lay me down to die #i said i was gonna write more pericky and by fucking god i did #the 'why did you do this to me' to 'oh thank god you didn't actually do this to me' pipeline of abuse folks 🥲#which like. their last conversation is yet another devastating example of ricky finally standing up to pericles' bullshit Too Late #ricky denounces him in the strongest terms he knows; based on his own feelings and opinions and the way he sees the world #(which: even then he can't bring himself to say 'i don't love you anymore')#(the closest he can get is 'i chose you and i can't take it back; the only way i can imagine not loving you is if i never had at all')#and pericles tries to go 'nyeh nyeh whatever i don't care' (and does a real bad job of pretending he is not obviously hurt lmao)#and ricky doesn't try to understand his logic; he doesn't try to reconcile a world where pericles didn't *really* mean to do anything wrong #his response is MAYBE YOU *SHOULD* CARE.#pericles' view of the world and what's right and acceptable are warped and *wrong* and he's the one who needs to get his shit together #'you shouldn't have abused me you shouldn't have killed cassidy you shouldn't have murdered a child in cold blood'#that is MASSIVE and i think it is really telling that pericles' response is to shut him down with force instead of trying to argue any more #and that in the end is the real true fucking tragedy of it all #ricky is making huge strides one after the other to take back his freedom from pericles emotionally #....and materially it makes no difference to improve his situation in the moment; because pericles doesn't have any less power to abuse him #he never has a triumphant moment where he Overcomes His Abuser and Breaks Out of His Control #there's nothing he can do to fight back until pericles is too Literally Dead to control him anymore #it is one of the rawest depictions of the reality of abuse i've ever seen and just. God. i love it so much #(at the same time i REALLY want to explore a version of events where he got the chance to expand further on that growth)#(the 'all witches are selfish; make all things yours; i have a duty' speech from the wee free men comes to mind)#whosebaby makes things #whosebaby writes #SDMItag #dyn: when i die i want you to die too

Choose violence game: common fandom complaint youre sick of hearing? RvB or any other fandom you're in

ohhh boy we ARE choosing violence!

anyway I don't like zero or torrian but literally imagine if you were an animator who never wrote anything other than the occasional quip and they gave you a whole ass show foundation show with a budget and constantly told you no about everything you wanted to do and also didn't help you at all and also you had to do it in 5 months and also the pandemic is happening. I think I'd contain so much fury in my body i'd explode. everyone knows zero was bad but it wasn't personally his fault. he should have never been given that hefty of a task that he was unqualified for WITH THE COMPANY'S FOUNDING SHOW and RT is so much more to blame for Zero than Torrian. the people who can find joy in that corporate shitshow are stronger than anyone who harassed Torrian over it. this isn't like something i've been festering about I just happened to talk about it earlier and it was the first thing that came to mind.

I'm a little hater so I don't really get annoyed that much at any complaints other than maybe grimmons queerbaiting but that's like, a legitimate problem that's been going on for 20 years and is like. an intentional thing they do. just because i'm over it doesn't mean it's not something worth complaining about yknow? also did you notice they made a canon queer couple in their most popular show just a few weeks after they had a controversy about their treatment of queer employees? I did :)

#zero was entirely the company's fault.#yeah torrian can't take criticism but like. come on man.#the amount of people that could have - should have - thought about who was doing what for their founding show. that just. didnt!#anyway gr/immons is like. they can't even get together to me. this is a personal take so i don't fault anyone for wanting them to but #it is 100% a logical failing to blame torrian for everything with zero. that's RT's fault. there was so much that should have-#-had someone say hey wait a minute. and they just didnt do that.#and it's a moral failing for anyone to have harassed him about it!#anyway rt sucks and i'm glad this show is finally gonna be fucking over for good so I don't have to care about them anymore #nonsense thoughts #asks #rvb critical #hey it's your job to make a new season of this foundational show we've had for (At the time 18) years. yeah you're not allowed to do it.#yeah we aren't going to protect you from the backlash at all also.#christ.

OC-tober day 6 - symbol

These two freaks.. caduceus ft some assorted article clippings! Transcripts of said article clippings under the cut :]

1- top left

"Caduceus as a symbol of medicine

The caduceus is the traditional symbol of Hermes and features two snakes winding around an often winged staff. It is often used as a symbol of medicine, especially in the United States, despite its ancient and consistent associations with trade, liars, thieves, eloquence, negotiation, alchemy, and wisdom."

2- top right

"The author of the study suggests that professional associations are more likely to have a historical understanding of the two symbols, whereas commercial organizations are more likely to be concerned with the visual impact a symbol will have on sales."

3- bottom right

"Wing clipping is the process of trimming a bird's primary wing feathers or remiges so that it is not fully flight-capable, until it moults, sheds the cut feathers and grows new ones."

4 & 5- behind everything, the long ones

the one on the left is a snippet from the Declaration of Helsinki, while the right is a snippet from the Hippocratic Oath, as written by Louis Lasagna. I don't believe said snippets have been chosen with any particular care but who knows really.

#notwordswordstag #OC-tober #bweirdOCtober #harry woudl be proud. That's not even his name but i don't care to remember it #mr heavy handed symbolism #caduceus ♡ hippocratic oath & that one declaration i forgot which i used ♡ clipped wings ♡ snakes (one more constricting 2) ♡ roulette tabl #ummmmm think that's it #[5 days after drawing me] so like i drew this in like. One night. One sitting etc #and as with most things that are drawn in like. One sitting. I don't like it very much anymore.#like after a day or 2 its always either the best thing i've drawn EVER frame it in a museum or hot shit. Today it's the latter #but what EVER!!!!!!! yolo and stuff....#oug i guess i need to write this in the caption Huh.#whatever i'll do that later #Something came up [said thing has been on the calendar for weeks now] and I didn't get a chance to finish day 5....#quite unfortunate really.....! I don't actually have any plans for the pallette week were just gonna sit down and hope 4 the best #[really agressive pointing] this is THAT GUUUUY #the one i really need 2 axe but my heart says no. Because i like her.#we will have a lapse in story logic just this once (once...) 4 da guy.#umm what else [post caption writing me] i was going to trace the articles but it got a bit tedious #i probably could've it would have looked nice #also the colors here are a bit awkward because i was dead set on having a limited pallette with like. 3 colors.#i was going to make [lady on the left]'s wings black just 4 contrast then i didn't.#think I shouldve but some evil voice in my brain said it was cringe.....#quite a shame really.#i am so SLEEPY!!!!!!!!!!!! All the time foreger #had a pretty good burger today [thumbs up emoji]#ok we r !! getting of subject #i thi nk i had like 40 different things 4 today. Same with day 5. But alas I can only do so much #ok i need to go draw an arizona iced tea. please await my return anxiously

no but it kills me how ritsu is such a people pleaser like... this boy got so scared of making his brother upset that it kind of manifested into his other relationships as well, so he's just constantly wearing that fake smile and asking people what they want, what he can do for them, doing what he thinks others want... this boy spends so much time pleasing other people that he made himself so miserable and bitter and he doesn't even realize he's miserable and bitter ough

#he says 'you desire nothing bro' but ritsu... what do You desire? do you even know?#and just thinking about how it would take awhile for him to even realize that he's always pleasing other people #'oh we can eat wherever you want' 'i don't care what we have for dinner' 'whatever you want nii-san' 'i don't mind either way shou' 'uh you #can choose teru' just. AHHHHHHHHH idk maybe someone points it out to him #like reigen would prolly notice tbh and i feel like shige would start to after the ???% arc and tbh dimple too #like ritsu just genuinely has no idea he does this he can make logical decisions like for student council or school but ask him to make a #personal decision or to say what he wants and he freezes for a split second and defaults to 'whatever you want/like'#idk i just. have feelings.#ritsu breakdown tehe #such a character i: love he #mp100 #ritsu kageyama

Stop paying animal abusers to abuse animals.

That's the post.

#i'm not even going to say you have to go vegan specifically (even though that's the only logical conclusion i see to this idea)#if you think you care about animals but buy factory meat when you have any other option you have absolutely no regard for the animals #you know what happens to them and if you don't then you know how to find out and i am so sick of being asked to tolerate that ~☆choice☆~#pork #chicken #(could tag other meats but those are the industries where i can 99% guarantee you are subjecting the animals to pure hell)

#will probably delete this later but I needed to get it out somewhere #like I am so goddamn lonely. and it is making me feel LITERALLY as if I'm about to descend into genuine madness #but the PROBLEM is that. in order to not be lonely. you need to find other people. and you need to have reason to believe that those #people will keep wanting and making an effort to communicate with you #and the thing is THE THING. IS. that you cannot control what people do or feel. I have no say in what people think of me.#I have to rely on other people to build new relationships. and that is just not. something that I can do.#it's not something that makes SENSE for me to do anymore. so I try to figure out how to just not want human connection at all #you know maybe if I intentionally isolate myself or grow my cynicism on a regular basis I'll get desensitized to the point #where that's just genuinely not something I want anymore. so then I'm not lonely but I also didn't have to rely on anyone else being #trustworthy and accepting and willing to care about me to get to that point #but. I mean maybe some people can do the denial thing but I can't. I've been trying for years. and that carved-out-hole in my chest #hasn't gotten any better. it hasn't filled up or healed over or gone away. it's just gotten bigger.#but if you're genuinely convinced that you're just built in a way where no one is ever going to really love you...what the fuck do you do?#if connecting with other people is something I want but it's (in my probably-biased estimation) completely inaccessible because I am #an inherently shameful and unpleasant person just by virtue of existing...then I'm just stuck at an impasse. and I'll always be crying #over something I can't logically ever have. why bother pursuing it if I am just going to be rejected or hurt or disparaged or tossed out or #neglected or sidelined or any number of bad outcomes? if that's how pursuing any kind of new interpersonal relationships is going to end #then why bother? the only thing to do would be to learn how to be completely unreliant on other people in any way forever right?#but THAT'S not logistically feasible EITHER and I've already proven that I can't fucking do that so what's left? just always be miserable?#I DON'T WANT TO RESIGN MYSELF TO THAT!!!!#sorry. it's. getting to be late december & around the new year is when it always gets Bad™ so we're just. gonna be like this for a few week #In the Vents #ugh all of this would be better if I still lived near Best Friend™#anyone who gets to live near/with their Person™ PLEASE know how lucky you are and don't take that for granted

i need weed. i need a medical card so bad or im gonna go out of my fuckign GOURD

#speak friend and enter #let me preface this by saying that im doing everything in my power to not let mental illness wipe its greasy hands on me #however. im insane in the membrane and i can feel myself slipping back into lunatic mode #i have to go for an mri next week and i genuinely don't know if i can do it. i am so fucking terrified you have no idea #i'll spare y'all the grisly details but i was chronically ill as a kid (and not just like sick a lot it was touch and go there for a bit)#and as a result of certain procedures i had to undergo to abate the aforementioned chronic illness #i developed ptsd that manifests as an irrational but obscenely debilitating fear of hospitals #like i can't go in a hospital without having a psychotic episode. like clinically i just can't do it #but as part of my yearly post-whatever care i have to get imaging done and this year that entails an mri and. im just scared #i spent a significant portion of my time immediately post ptsd symptom presentation believing that my doctors were trying to kill me #like for sport. like i thought there was some larger deep state esque plan in place to enact further medical barbarism upon me for giggles #and obviously you and i both know that's a delusion with no basis in reality but that doesn't mean i can stop myself from believing it.#it's like a word-of-god thing. i know logically that it's not true but there's a voice in my head screaming 'they want to flay you alive'#and i am currently between therapists and also unmedicated bc my last therapist was too focused on inner child work #to give me the prozac and weed card i really need #like that's great that you think healing my inner child will solve this but my inner child is covered in her own viscera. can we pivot mayb #but anyway for the moment im just wallowing in my own fear and im doubly scared bc im finding myself falling into rabbit holes again #like empirically the worst thing that's gonna happen as a result of this mri is that they're gonna say i have to have another surgery #and the technology has advanced to a point where its way less invasive than what ive had previously #but the constant dull roar of my thoughts about the whole deal is just. increasingly delusional nonsense #and not to be overly morbid or anything but i decided a long time ago that if i ever had to be admitted to the hospital again i would rathe #well you know. and i don't wanna die. honestly i don't. but the idea of wading through that particular brand of hell again is torture #and im not gonna kill myself. im not. ive been working on that impulse for a long time and i don't want to undo all of that work #but im scared and i dont wanna spend the rest of my life in n out of the hospital or as a substance-abusing recluse. is that so much to ask #i want to fix this. i do. i don't wanna live in a hole anymore as fantastic mr fox would say. but the horrors persist #and i often find myself increasingly unable to cope. hence why i need the weed #anyway i'll be fine. eventually. i hope. but in the meantime i do want to say i appreciate you all. i mean it #i tend to regard myself (fairly or otherwise) as difficult to get along with in real life so despite the fact that i don't talk w y'all muc #i do appreciate y'all being there and making me feel like more of a person than i feel like i am lately <3

that post got so long my computer was starting to lag

#DCB Comments #but I powered through bc I don't know if that anon is just like... legit misguided in realizing that stuff abt Claude?#or if it's like... an Edelgard fan who just wants Claude to be on her side and doesn't care if it makes sense #funny enough it's always those kind of people who WANT him siding with her who say shit like #''he's his own self and doing what he wants!'' but they don't say that abt him when he does exactly that #but sides with anyone but Edelgard. if it made sense that he sided with her I'd deal with that #but it doesn't make sense and people are trying to explain that and other people refuse to see our points #you can't say we're mad that Claude didn't side with Dimitri then go and say we're just mad that #he's not Dimitri's side piece when that's explicitly what he turned into with Hopes :/#in Houses he at least had a personality and character. he made decisions around logic #in Hopes he just makes decisions to fit the narrative of Edelgard even when he admits it's not smart to do #the point is that Claude's story is not HIS story in Hopes. he's just there to prop someone else up #he makes decisions to follow the narrative. the narrative does not follow him/his story as it should #I've said it before but AG follows Dimitri - not Dimitri following AG #but Claude didn't get that for his route. he's just running around at Edelgard's whims #he didn't just run around at Dimitri's whims in any route. that's not something he would do #so why should he do it now for her instead? that on top of... well... that entire post is why we don't like the #writing for GW Claude/SB Claude. even AG tried to shoehorn in that he's not trustworthy #by having literally everyone doubt Claude's intentions except Dimitri. poor Dimi had his friends like #bombarding him in his decision to ally with Claude which is also a huge poor Claude #bc he did literally nothing in AG to be distrusted but we got that conv anyway

You guys need to stop apologizing for having alternative feelings about something, I'm serious.

#you also need to stop being so quick snap or vague defensive #i can *assure* you that no one who is using their logical brain takes offense #if you like or dislike changes or choices made #if you like or dislike a direction something is going in #remember that tastes in aesthetics is purely superficial - in the end it doesn't matter #the only time you need to be careful is when you're delving into sensitive topics and then you *do* need to understand #what you're saying and who you're saying it to #because 'opinion' no longer flies there #other than that? love or hate the new looks all you want - i can assure you no one's mind is changing #from what they think unless they make the conscious effort to do so #prefer whatever you want - understand that people will also prefer the opposite and that's okay #you don't have to be defensive unless you're debating or discussing or writing an argumentative paper #be firm be respectful be mindful that's all #extemporize back chat #idk man it makes me a little sad to see when people say 'sorry but-' sorry but nothing #i will tell you what i tell my uni kids: your voice matters so long as you use it to add #like i am rarely serious but i am being serious now #you will find people who agree with you - if you prefer that stay with them #if you prefer critical debate spaces open it up! discuss with others engage in their alternate povs #you have choices and options #i care about your mental well being #and i get it! i used to be like that! apologizing for my existence - bro they're cats it's facepaint and fabric - hate it or love it #all you want #and of course this isn't an excuse either to 'but actually' anyone nor is it an excuse for harm #people have the right to tell you you're wrong if you are causing active harm or hold viewpoints that *can*#i'm not talking about that - i'm talking about stop apologizing for not liking andy's choreography or liking the new makeup #stupid things like that

✨︎ I feel like I wasted a lot of time this year just... avoiding reaching out to people or doing memes or starting spontaneous interactions, because I keep telling myself that it wouldn’t fit with the “plot”-ish stuff happening in the threads I’m already doing and I should just wait until some nebulous point in the future where I feel like Beat has progressed “enough” to be open to lower-stakes interactions.

✨︎ So New Year’s resolution is to stop worrying about if my blog’s “plot” makes any kind of linear sense and just reach out more for the heck of it. I’d rather have 400 simultaneous threads that don’t quite work chronologically but give me as many opportunities as I want to write my character in new situations, than arbitrarily restrict myself to a handful of heavy plotted threads steering his character development.

#ooc #♠︎ ♥︎ ♦︎ ♣︎ wish #this all goes for Mrs Bito too #which isn't to say I want to stop having big plot threads affecting their character development #but I've always been a 400-threads-at-once-and-who-cares-if-it's-impossible-to-slot-them-into-a-logical-timeline kinda girl #this year's the first time I think that I actually tried making an effort to progress character development in a linear way #to the exclusion of starting interactions that don't tonally / chronologically fit with what's going on in ''the present''#and I've realized that's been making me unhappy and I'd rather just pretend that there is no ''present'' and I can just write whatever

#saw someone say that alternate options for reproduction r unethical and that adoption is like the solution #and like while im still need to do more research on surrogacy to form a concrete opinion (tho i suspect it gets iffy real often)#im pretty sure shit like in vitro fertilization is WAY more ethical than adoption #also like i kinda hate it whenever ppl r like 'having kids is unethical because there r so many orphans'#like honey the vast majority of kids in the foster care system r there because of racism and/or poverty #like most 'orphans' have living relatives that would love to take care of them but don't have the $ to do so #also like i feel like whenever ppl say that having kids is unethical inherently unethical ima need u to expand ur logic #cause if ur going with over population thats just straight eugenics #and if u say something abt how the state of the world is so cruel that bringing new ppl into this world is cruel #then ima need u to think abt what ur saying and what its implications r #cause if we say that having kids is only ethical if u can secure a life for them thats not like super hard or some shit #then realisticly the only ppl that u belive can ethically have kids r rich white ppl

i find it absolutely (potentially) hilarious that half of the sumeru polycule is absolutely smitten by aether while the other half couldn't possibly care less about him.

#i wish i could say c.ynon.ari tried to make it a 5-people subunit but they did not. they know better.#maybe it's a lie that k.aveh couldn't care less because he's pretty pissed that his neat little closed p.olycule is ruined by a tiny bimbo #they had a SYSTEM and now t.ighnari has like 10 other boyfriends and a.lhaitham is not seeing the urgency of the situation #besides the bimbo is a dick (entirely ignoring the fact that the bimbo just sat there while p.aimon was being a dick)#anyway there is comedy material here #ales of alex #meanwhile a.ether is clueless because he has more important things to worry about #and c.ynon.ari definitely don't see the sense in informing him like what's the point #they are too logical and pragmatic to do or care for that #and when i say a.lhaitham doesn't care about a.ether he literally does not give a fuck #so it's just k.aveh seething by himself

work rant of the week just because: i literally just mentioned to my coworker that i don't wanna teach the boy in the striped pyjamas and so i've ordered the hunger games instead and he (who is not only an english teacher...... but also a history teacher) was like 'well the hunger games isn't more historically accurate?!' and i'm like ........... bro........... the hunger games isn't explicitly detailing a historical event that happened in real life...... it is a dystopian novel ?????????????

#like. dear god what the fuck #his whole reasoning was also that he wants to like 'scare' the prejudice out of them and i'm like #that book is literally uwu-ifying the nazi boy #so how does that make logical sense?#my book choice makes more sense for his purposes #if you wanna talk about power and oppression and not doing the right thing #anywho #i'm on break #i've just been thinking about this since monday #no one cares if i do my own thing but like asdfghsdfg #one english teacher says 'we don't need books bc the kids have laptops' and the other one says this ???#i need coworkers of colour before i implode
