#i mean in the canon of greats sense
Text
canonize women. make an effort to learn about great women and give them the respect and recognition they should have had all along.
how many times have you heard phrases like “he’s the mozart of coding” “he’s einstein-levels of brilliant” “he’s the new mark zuckerberg/elon musk/steve jobs/bill gates” “he was out of there faster than usain bolt” “focusing with bobby fischer-like intensity” “innovative like shakespeare” and so on and so on and so on?
how many exceptional men have become so easily recognized as brilliant that their names become symbols for greatness itself? how many exceptional women are ever even acknowledged, much less known widely enough to get the same treatment?
canonize women. mention exceptional women and act like it’s a travesty (because it is!) that their contributions aren’t known.
#radical feminism#radfems please touch#radfems please interact#terfs please touch#terfs please interact#terfsafe#radfem#i think that's all the attention-seeking tags i can think of#by canonize i don't mean in the catholic sense#i mean in the canon of greats sense#how many women are seen as giants in their field#how likely are you to come across them on a list that isn't specifically about women#something to think about.#another thing: think about the names of women you DO hear being used in this context#how do they differ from the many exceptional men mentioned in the same way?

Also I'm just gonna say that even if it were true that Rodimus was a """""true Prime"""" and Optimus wasn't, that isn't as much of an L for Optimus as people seemingly want it to be.
Like so you're telling me Optimus was never a chosen hero and the burden of the Matrix/leadership pained him morally, emotionally, and physically, yet he still survived 4 million years of war?
You're telling me he wasn't God's Designated Special Boy but he still tried his best to live up to that impossible ideal to the point of developing serious depression and suicidal ideation as a result of so much goddamn loneliness and self-doubt?
Optimus wasn't a "true Prime" and yet he still believed in ideals of reconciliation and ending the cycle of violence? He wasn't a true Prime but he still stayed on Cybertron trying to fix a broken, broken society while also trying to stop Earth from being invaded for a second time? He didn't even need to do that he could've just stayed in exile which he was originally supposed to do all along, and which he would've personally preferred?? You're telling me that Optimus wasn't Primus' Specialest Boy And Chosen Leader and yet he stepped into leadership anyways bc he perceived that there was injustice to be fixed??
Wow yeah I guess Optimus is just such an inferior leader, clearly his actual actions/moral character as person don't matter and his "worthiness" should be judged solely on whether the Magic Cybertronian 8 Ball liked him or not.
#squiggposting#idw op love#literally the more you deconstruct it the less sense it makes#ppl want rodimus to be Validated By Canon as being better than optimus soooo badly#i get it you cant like rodimus without shitting on optimus#however when you get canon wrong i can and will roast your theories#if optimus went thru everything he went thru but somehow still isnt worthy of the matrix#then what WOULD make him worthy??? like seriously#fighting to protect organic species from colonization didnt make him worthy?#trying to find diplomatic resolutions to a 4 mil year long blood feud isnt worthy enough?#doing all of this at the cost of great personal suffering to himself doesnt make him worthy??#being willing to fight and imprison his own autobots for trying to break the peace wasnt enough?#becoming villified by most of earth/cybertron by forcing them to cooperate wasnt enough???#optimus siding with the ultimate victim of cybertronian oppression and 'defeating him' by acknowledging his pain#isnt enough to make him worthy?? THEN WTF IS ENOUGH TO YOU PPL#nothing bc 'worthy of the matrix' is just code for 'validation of my fave'#and most of the ppl in this fandom dont even know OP did all of those things anywYs#also like MOST PEOPLE arent wielders of the matrix are they unworthy too???#WHAT DO YOU MEAN WORTHINESS?? WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS ALLEGED WORTHINESS#ON THE MORAL AND THEMATIC FABRIC OF THIS STORY????#literally idw optimus embodies the same values that rodimus does#it's all about love and forgiveness and building a better future and choosing kindness over violence#And if you dont get that optimus represents those just as much as rodimus did well#you prolly didnt read very closely lol

Josh and Sam’s Chemistry
I’m of the opinion that, even though they have less screen time together than UD’s established couples and aren’t explicitly romantic, Josh and Sam have better chemistry than most of the other Until Dawn couples. And I’m not playing here. I felt this in my bones, and I am now PREPARED to defend it with paragraphs upon paragraphs analyzing this game’s character writing.
Someone on Reddit tried to make fun of me for this opinion by saying Josh/Sam barely have any interaction. But what was not considered here is that I’m a petty bitch and am COUNTING THE LINES IN THE TRANSCRIPT NOW. Anyway, I’m more than half through the game, and currently Sam and Josh are both in each other’s TOP TWO for dialogue shared. Chris is there fighting for both their attention like mad though 😂. It’s very close so far. Like cooooome on, I’m not arguing that we have any canonical proof Josh and Sam are romantic. We don’t. But to say they don’t have very memorable interaction with each other….? Stuff and NONSENSE.
#ok Josh as the psycho treated her badly which sucks#but I even have some complex thoughts on that#like I’m not out to make entirely outrageous claims#but Josh and Sam have such interesting moments#and I found myself appreciating these more than Mike and Jess talking about hooking up for the Nth time#does this… make sense?#a lot of the established romance is superficial#Sam and Josh don’t have established romance#but they are less superficial in their interactions#I will say Crashley is PRETTY great#the whole scene at the door is ick#it’s a gross elephant in the room#but a good 80% of they time their romance is good#don’t yell at me#I will cry#but I will walk you through this entire script as I sob and show you what I mean#Mike/Jess and Emily/Matt are relationships that CANONICALLY involve a lot of using#not even shading these couples#it’s a part of their arcs and characterization and still form the characters#until dawn#until dawn remake#josh x sam#Sam x Josh#samantha giddings#josh washington

Give me all of the thoughts you have on those three and I will give you cute cat video (threat)
OKAY SO. its been a hot minute since ive done anything outside of writing the already established shorts for Exile, so this might be a lil lacking in what i usually put into these. But i promise its got more of plenty else! my brain has been zoomed ALL the way in on getting every single floof in warframe (i have all but like. 5. and those are all from Venus. please help)
Drifter. Drifter Drifter. He does NOT want to get attached and Shin and laughing at him the whole time. That man knew exactly what he was doing when he dragged Drifter into this and feels no regret. You might even get a rare smile (albeit smug) from him when talking about it.
It may not have been the most moral thing to do; using Drifter's experiences with the Nine to trap him into doing something insanely dangerous--But he's fine now, and he barely even came out with a bruise. Besides, the whole system should be glad Shin did that. At least now, Wolf has some direction.
It's not the most moral thing, yet again, to point Wolf at enemies again--A weapon, again--but it's what they needed. Horrible thing to need, the exact thing you need to get away from. But they have to want to get away from it enough to leave, first, and they can't get to that point without it. Wolf has to be a weapon to know what to do with themself, now. They spiral without it, and Ghost takes far too long to realize it--And refuses to acknowledge it when he does.
But they need an outlet, and the City still needs them. Two birds with one stone (though Wolf might object to that specific phrase). Think of the greater picture, Shin might ask.
That's why now, after a life removed from the bigger picture, I'm risking everything I am on a simple bet—that you are different. That you are better. Than me. Than them
This is what I want—need—you to understand. Your path is not your own. It is shared. It has impact. It carries consequence and creates wake, both obvious and unseen. And the path you're currently walking is… concerning. For yourself, whether you see it or not. More importantly, for others.
Have you considered this?
Shin is much more attached than he sounds (thank you autofill for recommending "attractive"), trying to both guide them and keep at a distance. Not that he ends up doing the greatest job.
Drifter, on the other hand, is more or less his typical self--If much more... put-off by the whole thing, at least for the first while. He gets used to Wolf's tendencies, and how Ghost and Shin try to direct it, so they don't catch themself too far in their own crossfire (not that its effective, but the two try. Thank the Light for Crow coming around).
But Wolf is still unnerving, maybe because they remind him and the states he was stuck in. Maybe because it's-- Well, not willingly. But the things they put themself through that they don't have to? So, maybe there's resentment, or maybe he just doesn't understand and maybe they don't exactly help much of anyone understand. Maybe they're unnerving because of their eyes, because of how they hold themself (a kicked dog.), because of the fighting spirit, the determined heart, reduced to the mere haunting of someone who was before.
Maybe it's pity. Maybe he doesn't want someone else to end up like him, or the people he's known throughout his far too long history.
#i went and read Letters From a Renegade again for this. give me the lore boys and free my sooouuuul#(that is completely incoherent if you dont know the Give Me the Peat Boys post but thats alright)#i want so badly for that lorebook to be canon to Exile. maybe theyre unsent letters. maybe they have a different... tone. more pleading#pleading and warning. half begging half threat. ''I need you to understand. You have to understand. Don't make me do this.''#i also had to get a DEATHGRIP on my memory of Drifter lore but lemme tell you. THAT brainrot never left lmao#he's so. squiiiissssh.#i need to torment him. and while this isnt usually what i would mean by that! it works!#and Ghost and Shin get to poke him so. it works <3#orb rambles#the forsaken exile#on non-destiny note (bc i need help):#the amalgam hasnt really grown any since i finished it but i started making ayatan amalgams by clipping them into each other and other thin#might make a biblically accurate ghost kuaka floof. i have so many of them#also i think itd be funny if my Warframe Drifter was Destiny Drifter. no sense from a lore perspective but think about how great itd be#also#there was great temptation to say 'Drifter Drifter Archon Killer' up there. i have brainrot and it isnt even related to WF's STORY. blease

Wtf did I like to get so much davekat on my for you tab…is all this really just from those goofy karkat jr/rose jr shitposts I was looking at the other day???? Or is it just homestuck in general???
#like nothing against davekat it’s just not a pairing i have much interest in#i mean i like dave. and i like karkat. i just kinda…don’t care abt any ship other than pale gamkar basically#maybe if i could actually find good fics to my taste w/o tripping over gamzee hate i could get more into other ships and characters :/#i mean the dirkjake fic i kinda understand. still dont think mentioning gamzee at ALL was necessary but canon gamkar is…not great.#similar with blood-stained knight of beforus. gamzee WAS necessary in that one and it makes sense for him to be abusive i just wish he wasnt#(of course that whole series was…a lot. good. but a lot. )#but that one spn-esque dirk and dave centric series???? author. author. why tf are you redeeming KURLOZ but villifying gamzee? they did the#EXACT SAME THING you just dont see much of kurloz doing it bc he’s a minor character! if you needed karkat to have trauma use his canonical#mutation and fear of being killed for it instead of showing an absolutely mind-boggling double standard!#*sigh*#i know not everyone is going to interpret my fave the same way as me. but it’d be nice if he didn’t get so much hate#marijn talks#marijn rambles in the tags#rant in the tags#not tagging with main tags i dont need my tag rant sparking discourse

I've been thinking a lot about Mon/Asajj lately and I think I need to edit some TCW screenshots to put them in the same frame or find some comic panels to edit them together to convince people they are real and have interacted
#daily asajj thought of the day#mon/asajj#yeah tales of the republic 7 is one of my favorite canon comic issues#i feel like it really gives you a feel of the daily senatorial life#and it's a great insight to mon and asajj's short lived forced partnership#i mean she did live in coruscant for a while so why wouldn't she be secretly working with a senator#it makes sense and i love jody houser's take on it

Look, I like the idea of Bowser not recognizing Luigi when he's disguised as Peach as much as the next guy, I really do, but I feel like there is a lot of unwholesome potential between Bowser and Luigi if the Koopa King almost immediately found out that he kidnapped the wrong Peach.
#and when I say unwholesome I don't mean it the sense that Bowser finding out that Peach is actually Luigi would break his heart#I mean it in more of a canon scene where he would quickly find out about the fake Peach and would then hold Luigi for ransom#or just kill him if you want Bowser to be really mad about the brothers and Peach pulling the switheroo#Bowser may be an idiot but he's not stupid#especially if you take into account the canon detail that Bowser's in love/may have an enormous obsession with Peach#a true obsessor like Bowser would know that Peach's eyes are dark blue like the color of the ocean#and while Luigi would have blue eyes his would be much lighter than Peach's (i.e. sky or baby blue)#(or he could just straight up have green eyes if you follow the DIC cartoons)#plus Bowser could just also take/rip the mask off of Luigi's face and instantly find out about the princess switcheroo#Bowser has really amazing immunity so I feel like it would not affect him all that much if “Peach” got him sick#at least I feel like he has great immunity considering the number of times he should've died in every Mario game known to man#oh and don't worry about me forgetting about this idea#because I can safely assure you that I will bring up this idea again sometime in the future#granted I don't know when I'll exactly bring it up again but I have every intention to explore this idea in more detail one day#and I can probably promise you that it'll happen at a time when you'll least expect it#consider this a fun and mysterious sneak peek of what's to come#luigi#luigi nintendo#bowser#bowser nintendo#bowuigi#bowser x luigi#super mario#super mario bros#headcanons#mario headcanons#mario fanfic#mario fanfic idea#foreshadowing

Drabbles??? How about mac and jack and birthdays. Idk. You do what you want with this :))
for you? a GA drabble to prepare you for the next GA drabble <3
Mac doesn’t really know why he thought about it, or even how it popped into his head, but it did. Out of everything that’s distinctly Not Human about Jack, birthdays were not something that Mac ever thought he’d have to worry about.
And he still doesn’t, not really. But he’s curious enough about it that he can’t help himself.
So one night, bad leg stretched out on the couch while one of his hands massages his thigh, Mac asks, “Do you have a birthday?” Mac probably should’ve realized something was off sooner, but given his distaste for his own birthday, the whole celebration thing had just slipped his mind for the past half a dozen years.
“No,” Jack easily replies, as if he was expecting the question.
“What would you have said if I asked you this before I figured out… y’know. You.”
“Picked a random day and stuck with it. Jack Dalton—the actual dude—has a birthday. Woulda just used his.”
“Ah.” Mac swallows. Admittedly, he’s still warming up to the fact that Jack has been parading around in some dead guy’s body.
“Don’t really matter now though, does it?”
Mac nods a few times, glancing between his leg and Jack before settling on the latter. “Do you… want a birthday? To like… celebrate?”
“What’s this about?”
“Nothing. Honestly, Jack, nothing,” Mac adds, rolling his eyes at his partner’s face. “I was just- I don’t know. I know you like being human Or at least human-adjacent. I figured a birthday part might be something that you’re into.”
This time, Jack grins. “I didn’t say ‘no’ to it.”
#if canon jack loves birthdays i figured why not this one?? plus I have a great way to make it make sense#i mean kind of. as much as this au ''makes sense'' in the first place lol#asks#bold and nosy#we love bold and nosy very much#in which vi actually writes#drabbles#prompts#macgyver#macgyver 2016#ga au#sorry that this took a hot second. i was overcome with the sudden urge to email my 7th grade science teacher#and tell her how much she meant to me and how I still think about her class even though I'm college now#what can i say i'm an emotional and nostalgic bitch

all fanfiction exists on a scale between "painstakingly engaging with canon" and "the characters are my dollys and the universe my dollhouse and i will put them wherever i want and make them do whatever i want"
#and i don't mean this like a strict AU vs. in-universe. AU's can do a great job engaging with canon and in-universe can be very dollhoused#though my go to example of dolly fanfic is the sugar daddy au where steve rogers was a sugar daddy to young artist loki#i read that description and had so many judgements because it would make more sense for those roles to be reversed#but i had to make peace with the fact some writer wanted to depict captain america sugar daddy loki and that's ok#sometimes people just want to put a character in situations for Reasons even if it makes no sense with canon#santagno

it's obvs not helped by the fact that buffy is my fave character, you notice the details of when they're poorly treated by the narrative and want to rescue them from it (which is where faith comes in......)
#btvs#buffy summers#buffy the vampire slayer#this is why so many people ended up shipping spike x buffy i think (i mean also they have great chemistry once it starts)#despite being canonically a terrible person he's also the one who sees that she's hurt#and puts that first -- up until of course That scene but i'll see how i feel about that when it comes#and of course faith who was right way more of the time than the narrative fully acknowledges because the good guys dont like her#faith is like buffy if buffy didnt have giles i think -- in the sense that he's the only support that counts for anything imo#faith and buffy shouldve run away together and smooched a lot and not given the scooby gang the time of day#urgh i need to read some faith x buffy#that time where you're like *actually your platonic relationships are no good -- this once romance WILL save you i swear*

Oh and in that marvel rant when I said people who have complaints that I don't agree with are still valid. I do not mean people who stopped watching (or attacked other fans) because stucky wasn't canon. That's dumb.
#im not tagging this bc i dont want death threats ❤️#what i mean by that is#everyone is allowed to ship whoever they want#but you have to be realistic bestie#theres nothing wrong with shipping stucky and making/reading fanfic or art or headcanons etc etc#but you have to recognize that You Made That Up ❤️ the movies did Not Tell You That ❤️#which is FINE!!! its GREAT!! its the point of fandom!!!! have fun!!!!!#but when people convinced themselves that stucky was soooo canon#and peggy in endgame made no sense whatsoever and came out of left field and was ridiculous#youre lying to yourself ❤️#you dont have to like it or accept it in your personal canon#but dont make the filmmakers responsible for your headcanons#when writers MAKE THEMSELVES responsible for people's headcanons. bad things happen#thasmin happens#and THAT. WAS BAD!#ok im gonna stop saying things before i get sniped

I gotta hold myself accountable to when I'm making content that's not really based on canon at all, so I remain self aware & whatnot, but I still occasionally think things like "but blurr should be arcee's number one fan 🥺.... bc i said so........"
#🐝 could you repeat the last part? 🟦#i make a good effort to stay self aware bc i dont want to lost in fanon delusion. i cant let that happen to me#also it would be hypocritical of me to go ''i dislike this fanon it has no basis in canon''#when i also like making up shit if it's interesting#so i make it clear that im just picky abt hcs and stuff like that#for me to enjoy them they gotta contribute something interesting to the source material but not come out of left field#and i dont rlly care for edgy stuff if it doesnt rlly serve much purpose#so i dont rlly care for hcs like ''bee is ACTUALLY megatrons great nephew once removed !!!!!!!!!!!!''#they do nothing for me i just go ''man i dont care'' and turn around#like thats just personal taste though and im a notoriously particular & picky person so. who cares what i think u get what i mean#though u should care abt arcee fanboy blurr bc its good and awesome alright /hj#IT THINK ITS FUN AND CONTRIBUTES AN INTERESTING TAKE ON CANON ...#bc blurr admiring arcee 1) makes sense bc arcee is genuinely a badass & literally worked in the same division he does#2) brings more focus to the parallel between them about how they got seriously injured in ways that impact their most notable qualities#(arcee having her memories wiped when her mind is one of her most important qualities as a school teacher & intel agent)#(blurr having his body damaged & handicapped when speed achieved by his physical athletic ability is a defining part of his character)#3) solidarity in that trauma baby. and arcee can be blurr's gramama (applause amazing brilliant we love to see it)#and also who doesnt love to see blurr having girlbosses idols. arcee inspires him to be a girlboss too#see this is how ridiculous i am i have to have these detailed thoughts abt hcs i cant just go stupid#no i cant change this about myself btw#i am pretentious at heart i have to be like this with media i enjoy#but still i always try to indicate that i am aware that my hcs are just fan interpretations of stuff so i dont like#accidentally come off as me forcing my ideas of canon onto other ppl like. this is just my lego city that im building i know of my bullshit#though i still do draw deep lines for things like . blurr being social (shudders)

Ship that is most misunderstood: 💢
Hmm, none in particular I think, but I do think its incredibly funny how people bend and shape characters so that ships work out but won't do a single bit of work for canon ships. LIke they just take everything thats IN canon and judge the ship based on that instead of like.. adding their own parts like they do with other ships. Does that make sense? LIke I'm just saying, you can make them be whatever you want, even if they are canon in the story, but it seems like people are not willing too
#ask things#friends and pals#its always like#they are bad in canon they fight in canon they are not affectionate in canon#and i would say just ....make them lol i mean just do as you wish! its up to you!#WOO how great! iyou can make puppets do however you like!#thats what im saying with#if canon is not real then it has to count for EVERYTHING#and not just for what you pick and chose#like i dont mind people saying i dont like this canon ship#and i dont want to invest time in it#but its always funny to me when it goes#i dont like this canon ship because there is not much with them in canon#neither is for like 99 percent of other ships in this fandom but somehow thats ok?#yk?#i probably dont make sense#making that one non rebloggable
