I could talk for hours about the assassination of miss piggy’s character after jim henson’s death that’s been carried out by corporate writers hell bent on making her ‘shallow’

#miss piggy if you see this I will defend you till the day I die #bad misogynistic writers took the characteristic of a TRUE diva and reduced the trope down to nothing #they have no idea what it means to be a diva #she was glamour she was EVERYTHINGGGG before henson passed #grubby men who think they know better spent years shaving her down #I understand her though #miss piggy #the muppets

Random new year thought that I might make into a fanfic at some point:

Ichigo is meant to be this perfect culmination-slash-combination of everything but imagine an AU where Ichigo's contradicting origins (Shinigami/Hollow/Human/Quincy gag) actively handicapped him. Not the lazy 'Yhawch parasite holding him back' explanation. Simply by his very nature, its impossible for any of his powers to manifest to advanced levels without threatening to implode.

Try to advance his Hollow powers? His Quincy powers deteriorate.

Try to advance his Quincy powers? His Hollow powers deteriorate.

Try to advance his Shinigami powers? His Hollow powers love every second but his Quincy side weakens dramatically.

Try to advance Shinigami and Quincy together? Hollow wants a slice of the pie.

Try to advance Hollow and Quincy? Gets no where slowly because they're anathema - very nearly killing himself in the process.

No amount of 'achieving inner balance' would help him with it because by the nature of his existence, he lacks capacity to do these things. The only reason Ichigo managed to gain a high tier shinigami technique like Bankai in the first place? Yoruichi used a doll to force out a twisted malformed parody out of him.

Which would place a whole new spin on the asauchi trial when he fails: O'etsu reveals Ichigo's bankai shattered so easily because he was never supposed to have one in the first place.

Ichigo can never obtain a true Bankai or Vollstandig or Resurrección because the other aspects of his powers violently reject that from happening. At best he can mix-max his base stats to levels far beyond anything others could achieve but he would never obtain the advanced techniques of a pure Shinigami, Hollow or Quincy.

Ichigo could be like Luke Skywalker from Star Wars. Compared to the powerhouses of Kyle Katarn or Starkiller aka. Galen Marek, Luke is actually quite weak. But he brought balance to the force, he brought down an empire and his very name has the ability to shakes worlds (before Disney ruined him).

In my mind, that is the ultimate power Ichigo should've had. Not copious amounts of actual power piled upon him by being a cosmic paradox and freak of nature. His power comes from his symbolism, his feats of will, his ability to inspire change and unshakeable loyalty through sheer force of personality.

Especially since one themes of Bleach is how power shackles and isolates a person. The complete opposite of that theme would be not necessarily the most powerful character, but one with the greatest ability to forge bonds despite that?

It'd be interesting to see how Bleach's narrative would change from that perspective.

#bleach #anti tybw #ichigo kurosaki #fic idea?#Because Ichigo being overpowered amounted to nothing #I personally think it would've been interesting if he swung in completely the opposite direction #all these contradiction origins made him weaker by diluting his power pool #Make Aizen and Yhwach both have a point #Aizen wanted to create something stronger than base shinigami and did succeed #but at the cost of them losing he capacity to use higher techniques #giving the Quincy's whole pureblood stance something of a point too #Pureblood quincy can use the ultimate techniques of their race easily that their mixed blood counterparts can't #So Ichigo proves both their points:#As a mixed blood: his raw stats will outstrip anyone he comes across with time and training #at the same time he'll never be able to pull out the move glamourous techniques

I love that, on Tumblr, no new follower is so immediately suspicious as one whose username is an actual name and whose icon is a photograph of an actual person.

#not the actual person behind the blog i'm sure. but still. i love how authenticity here is antithetical to 'realistic' self-promotion #nothing so suspicious here as a glamour shot icon attached to a name lol #anghraine babbles #deep blogging #tumblr

Day 24

Winter

The realm of eternal ice

Snowfall and darkness

Descends upon the vales of time

#i am a little late and i have nothing to say except heehoo edgy blackmage shenanigans #glamour shots are also valid i guess #also dusk vigil is such a great gpose location i need to try around some more #i say that and chose the screens where you can't even see much background #gpose #junelezen #junelezen 2023 #eclaire yes like the dessert #ps: i don't know either why there's so many lyric posts lately? it just happens?

was just overtaken by a desire to see a queer staged performance of much ado featuring masc Beatrice and femme Benedict bi4bi mayhem

#imagined her smoking in a suit as she tells ‘a lovely lady’ about how Benedict sucks at the party #then taking the cigarette and placing it in his awe struck mouth with a parting ‘farewell my lady’ as she leaves #he’s sitting in full glamour drag wig ballgown jewellery makeup and all #he drops it out of his mouth when he begins to lovingly complain about her behaviour and nearly sets his own skirts on fire #they’d be so hot!!!!!!!! and bi4bi #after her ‘can’t have a man with a beard can’t have a man without one’ I’d want hero to lean in with a ‘and what about a woman fair cousin?’#in return Beatrice seems to start ‘the perfect woman would look and act like’ speech before being cut off #she’s explicitly and unknowingly describing how Benedict looks and acts when he’s all dolled up #Benedict’s bisexual contribution is dialling up the implicit flirting between him and all his mates. also everything about him #much ado #much ado about nothing

On Grizabella’s day, I’m going to force you all to listen to Laurie Beechman’s performance of “Memory”; specifically:

youtube

Her guest appearance on The Phil Donahue Show, soon after her cancer returned for the final time in 1995.

youtube

And then her performance in the record breaking performance of CATS in June of 1997, while she was still undergoing treatment. Beechman passed away in March of the following year at the age of 44.

#CATS Musical #CATS Broadway #Grizabella the Glamour Cat #videos #oldiesweek #i want you to listen to this - i want you to listen to this in context #like i want you to...understand when i talk about these things #i'm not just flapping my gums and shaking my stick at the kids on my lawn #i'm saying like...the performers that hold the most weight as grizabella know this feeling #understand the concept of fading themselves in the background #coming to the end of their careers - literally or figuratively #nothing tops that - nothing will ever top that

Five Jokers walk into a room together, or try to. They somehow all manage to try and enter at the same time and form a chain.

Curious on whether or not they would figure it out, or if they would first break through the wall before seperating.

How does the tumblr FYP always pick up on posts/tags that are so close yet so far from what I actually want to see

#like i don’t want to see alex turner i don’t want to see damon albarn #nothing against those 2 they are both very very pretty but i don’t have any particularly strong attachment to either #i DO want to see blur tho. I just don’t particularly care for damon glamour shots which is about half of their tag #im a graham girlie anyway for some weird reason #& I’d love more 2000s indie content obviously but there is already too much AM content on my dash I don’t need more from my FYP #why can’t tumblr read my mind lmao

I have grown ✨ cynical ✨ towards any kind of social media that isn't to do things like ask for answers to questions
