#just rambling on

I typically avoid conflict on the internet, mostly because it never ends well, but god if there’s anyone I’m willing to fight, it’s fuckers who deny science and modern medicine.
I’m not bothered by them having a different opinion, but when their views are outright causing damage to both people and the world, I have a major issue.
This list includes:
Flat earthers and literally anybody who calls NASA a liar. I will fight you on this and I will win.
Vegans who put their OBLIGATE CARNIVORE pets on vegan diets.
The Karens of the world who think essential oils and crystals cure pandemics
Straight up anyone who thinks traditional medicine is better than modern medicine. I’ll concede that teas and herbs are in fact very good for your body; but in no universe are things like shark fin soup and bear bile okay.
And yes I am opening up this post to anyone wanting to argue with me. I have facts and scientific backing and I’m not afraid to use them.

Everything in the Barbie movie broke me. It was amazing. Everything it had to say was so powerful. About gender roles. About the minority. About discovering who you are and your worth. About growing to love yourself, despite your flaws. About being human.
But why did “What’s Barbie’s ending?” “Barbie’s in love with Ken.” “I don’t love Ken.” break me the most.
#this isn’t to take away from the main message of the movie that was so incredible to watch I nearly cried#but#I never walked away from a movie so happy that the couple didn’t happen#that Barbie was never questioned for not loving Ken#barbie spoilers#barbie movie spoilers#the barbie movie spoilers#barbie#barbie movie#the barbie movie#aromantic#aromantism#just rambling on

She wrote willow during cup o Jo’s era and we all rolled our eyes at the ridiculous “that’s my man” repetition. So the fact that she decided to sing that’s my man while pointing at the tight end she just started dating is funny.
It’s wild to see the juxtaposition of these relationships with the Matty nonsense just chilling in the middle of all of this is just wild. 7 years so in love until it was over then a fling with matty and now she’s replacing fan established cup of Jo references with this football guy. How do fans who think Taylor is straight reconcile her willingness to just give any guy songs that they believed wholeheartedly showed how in love she was with cup of Jo?
If I believed Taylor was straight and was actually in a relationship with the boyish beau I’d think their relationship and breakup was a lot messier than they led on. Like she is intentionally throwing digs at him and erasing a 7 year relationship from existence with every public display with this new guy. But the fans secretly hated the boyish beau so they love that she’s making up for lost time with this new fella.
I’d be wondering why this isn’t this the narrative being pushed in the press? And if I was the boyish beau’s pr people (if he still has a team) I’d be using this as an opportunity to field questions (if he ever has a speaking engagement again) about what it’s like seeing Taylor in the news and moving on so publicly. Perfect opportunity to show how mature and unbothered he is by all of this.
Things move so quickly in celebrity world. Truly a whirlwind romance for the books.

I am intrigued by 'Red as red as red'
Red as Red as Red is my take on reverse robins.
it is so much about Jason and how brave he is and his experiences as the third robin with a dead predecessor and his attempts to save him through following the edgelord creepazoid to his supervillain hideouts and heckling him. and it's also a little about reverse Tim and Damian's relationship which is so acutely painful and filled with regret.
the beginning takes place in that universes titans tower attack.
Red Hood breaks in and fights jason clinically, coldly correcting his stance and moves, barely reacting to insults, before telling him stiffly that he "isn't ready" and snapping his arm in half .
Just as Red Hood prepares to leave, identity unrevealed, Nightwing swoops in and rushes to Robin's side rather than pursuing the attacker.
Red Hood, who hadn't shown a lick of emotion since his arrival, lets out a scream of fury, draws a gun, and empties a full clip into the bulletproof center of Damian's chest armor
The responding batarang cracks Hood's faceplate, and Damian and Jason discover that, against all odds, the second Robin is alive. Tim Drake is alive.

one of the most infuriating things about becoming an adult is when you realize that it actually is 10x easier to solve problems by making a phone call vs literally any other communication method
#I was forced to get over my hatred of making phone calls bc of this#one 15 minute phone call is the equivalent of 5 back and forth emails#also if you don't know exactly what you need help with you can just ask and you can get real help#instead of just desperately clawing at faqs on websites#it's infuriating that it works so well#ramblings

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).
Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.
#rambles#if you are a person who is into delicate skills#like lacemaking or printing or sewing#you will know fair well just how non expansive the knowledge online is in comparison to written guides from like the 50s#there was a time where at least one person in the household had to know a constructive skill#but in the modern day there is just less ans less demands for comprehensive guides#library propaganda#im stuck doing an essay rn but bc i have covid i cant go to the library and its totally fucked me#i want to source a lot of the stuff i read irl but i just cant go and get it and theres no online ver

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024
#ramble#if you say unalive in front of me i will personally kill you with my hands#you just can't muffle and censor and hold someone's hand through some things#some things are horrible. and they should be spoken aloud and they should upset you. because they are horrible#the second we started kidzbopifying the world was the end of taking anything seriously i think#i'm not even joking i've spoken to people older than me who won't even say the world sex#this isn't the playground you're not going to get in trouble just let us say the word!!!!!!#how am i supposed to listen to you when you won't even say the thing you're supposed to be talking about#yes this is the fault of the platforms with their censorship rules but the fact that we all just go along with it like it's not dystopian#you do know it doesn't stop with cursing right. people are already having to censor queer terms because they get flagged as inappropriate

advice i think we should tell children is that when adults say stuff like ‘now that i’m an adult i get really excited about stuff like coffee tables and bathrooms and rugs etc’ they don’t mean ‘and now i don’t care about blorbo and squimbus from my childhood tv shows anymore’ bc your average adult still loves all the same pop culture stuff they always did; they just have a greater appreciation for the mundane as well. growing up just means you can enjoy life twice as much now. you can get really excited about a new stuffed animal AND about a new kitchen sponge. peace and love
#peach rambles#you don’t have to get rid of blorbo and squimbus!! they would look great on top of your beautiful new nightstand you’ve been excited about#hall of fame i guess#i get. the sneaking suspicion this post has inspired at least two other posts#to the effect of ‘uhmmm i was ALWAYS excited about these things??’#yes i did have to do my own chores as a kid prommy. i just didn’t have feelings about stuff yet ok

More reasons why Zuko being the Firelord is objectively the funniest thing on earth:
HES SEVENTEEN
He hasn’t been civilised in 4 years, his entire teenage experience consists of living on a boat and sleeping rough. The most stable bed he has was probably in Ba Sing Se he probably will just nap anywhere.
He has customer service experience which means he probably uses his customer service voice on his minsters.
Additionally he probably just wanders into to kitchen to get his own snacks and tea because he forgets what servants do.
He probably has no idea why he can’t just chase after an assassin he used to hunt the avatar for Agnis sake why is the captain of the guard demanding he stay in his room he’ll find the guy first (he’s probably right)
Katara probably has a free pass on Eco terrorism because what’s he going to do challenge her, she’ll beat his ass.
If he saw a minster doing something shady he will either invite lady Beifong to detect their BS or commit B&E and look for evidence himself.
He somehow found a baby dragon and raises it.
He will be far to willing to give Kyoshi island anything they want cause he feels bad and Suki scares him.
He randomly insisted on giving some earth kingdom village 100 ostrich horses.
The Avatar will just show up call him Hotman and demand the go on adventures and the Firelord will just dip because he’s been confined to long and has the Zoomies.
He takes far to much advice from Sokka and will genuinely believe if someone doesn’t get Sokkas plans they must be an idiot because Sokka is 16.
Sokka and Zuko also get into a lot of teenage rebellion phases by accident.
Toph just walks in breaks a wall of his palace and demands a field trip that always involves the Firelord having to explain himself to the cops.
He somehow knows every dangerous teen in the world and they all come for tea uninvited.
He has broken into both the NWT and Ba Sing Se.
He has a really well documented facial scar and official portraits but still disappears to be Lee the tea guy like no one knows.
HES SEVENTEEN.

local ladies man’s signature move totally useless against autistic monster enthusiast. more on Kabru’s fumble era at 6
#i’ve seen so many interpretations of that 1 hr freeze frame of Kabru’s smile in ep 16#he’s meeting his long time crush of course he’s trying to charm him#Kabru so obviously has a big fat giant crush on Laios#like atp in the story he’s tried to talk to him and get his attention so many times agjdjajdj#Laios is the human rubix cube he’s been searching for his entire life#everyone else is almost too easy for Kabru to pin down#Laios on the other hand … a treasure trove of autistic mystery#Kabru is so locked in#Kabru used signature move: charming smile#Laios: no effect!#there’s something so beautiful about the popular pretty boy entering his fumble era when his one true love turns out to be autistic#labru#laios touden#kabru of utaya#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#wasabi rambles#seen so many clock that smile as nefarious and machiavellian#baby no Kabru is just dialing the charm up to 100 and what we’re all feeling is second hand embarrassment LMAO

On of the less intuitive things about love, I've found, of any kind, is the importance of needing things.
I didn't realize it until recently, but I've always seen love as something requiring sacrifice, selflessness, patience, and generosity- to ask for nothing is to be the best person I can be, small and quiet and never in the way, always happy and helpful, self-sufficient and present when desired.
It's only as an adult, now, that I'm beginning to see the selfishness of wanting nothing.
I cut my friend's hair in my kitchen the other day. They wanted a trim and I had the skills, so I offered, and was genuinely excited when they stopped hesitating over "bothering me" and took me up on it. It was a peaceful afternoon, and we had tea and chatted for an hour or more.
My brother and I shared popcorn at the movies a while ago. When I came time to pay, I pulled my card out like a wild western sheriff and slapped it on the machine before he could fight me for it first. The satisfaction was delightful.
Someone called me crying on the phone the other day. Kept apologizing for disturbing me at work, talking about how they were bothering me on my lunch break. I was telling the truth when I told them that really, I was flattered and honored and relieved, knowing that if they were hurting I would know, that I didn't have to worry in silence. It felt good to hear them slowly come down, and to know that they knew it would be better soon, and to hear them laugh wetly on the other end. We're getting together for a visit next week.
It's hard to need things, if you've trained yourself not to. It's hard to want things, when you don't know how to want anymore. Trusting people is difficult, and so is relying on them, but I don't know where I'd be without the people who rely on me.
I've heard a lot of people say, "Nobody will love you unless you love yourself". I've had a lot of thoughts about it. It's not right, but it's not wrong, either, I think.
"Nobody will love you unless you love yourself"... I've always taken that to mean, "You will not be lovable until you develop a positive view of yourself as a person".
Now, I think it's sort of inside-out.
"Nobody will love you unless you love yourself"... because nobody can show their love to you in a way that you can accept until you treat yourself kindly, and learn what you need, and what you want, and how to ask for it, and then give that vulnerability away.
Love, for me, is someone I ask for a ride to the airport. Whether they end up doing this or not is irrelevant.
It's not needy, or selfish, or taking up energy. It's giving the gift of being wanted, and needed, and thought of. It's giving someone the security of being part of someone's life.

No single line has ever wrecked me as hard as this one from the Good Place and I think about it constantly
#the good place#i'm binge watching it again and it just takes me out so hard#i get lost in the sauce thinking about this quote#the idea that those who hurt you are capable of being better people and then seeing them change and grow just hits me right between the rib#who am i kidding it stabs me like the senators stabbed Caesar#anyway#icy does a tag ramble
