do you ever end up accidentally getting super attached to a trope so specific and rare you don't even know how to look for it? 'space aliens failing to understand that a human showing teeth usually isn't a threat display' isn't even an ao3 tag. finding that shit in published fiction or tv shows is next to impossible

my favourite thing about the always sunny podcast is listening to rcg all say something extremely neurodivergent and then agree amongst themselves and convince themselves its completely normal
#and to be clear im not diagnosing them charlie said he wasn't neurotypical#like deadass i think. the reason some of their writers just completely botch the gang's motivations/dialogue sometimes is bc at their core#these characters are all. SO autistic. which inevitably leads to them being misunderstood by others outside their group#whether rcg realizes it or not they inject this very specific vibe of neurodivergence into the gang#and its why they will just. argue over inconsequential details bc they Need to be understood completely#they can't just drop it unless they are crystal fucking clear#imo the biggest mistake other writers make is thinking that the gang is completely desensitized when its more like#they just don't react the way you would expect#which is often... adjacent to that but still distinct. and its trauma that influences this as well#the gang does not believe they themselves are 'bad people'. theyre most often oblivious to the fact that the things they do are insane#rob saying he doesnt pick up on social cues and then going on to argue in circles with glenn#i dont think last week was anything crazy but i think. rob doesn't know when to let up. which is a problem that *i* have#and while it comes across as being confrontational in an 'im right youre wrong' way i dont think its driven by ego here#just like with how as they said mac and dennis are making up while chucking bread rolls at each other#on both sides its frustration at being misunderstood#but they are all similar enough that even if they disagree over small details theyre usually on the same page. and this can be beneficial!!#thats the conclusion of the ep!!!! whether its suggesting smoking to cancel out the toxic apple skin or suggesting words u cant think of#glenn said he was upset about feeling misrepresented and picked on#dennis gets angry for those exact reasons in.... ALL of his big rage scenes#its frustration that leads to anger because youre speaking to (another) brick wall and you can't adequately explain yourself#which. glenn is clearly more competent than dennis & i think a lot of the time in sunny the gang is WAY more obtuse for the sake of comedy#but its interesting to watch the dynamic because as charlie said last week#they are mac and dennis (especially when theyre fighting)#i just think.. they are in a semi-unique position to understand this because this is how they are. while several other writers do not get i#ada speaks#untagged

KAMUT, toa Mangai of ice (5/11)
Standing in the inscribed halls of the great temple, Kamut considers the histories of the world to best serve the matoran they have sworn to protect. Quiet and contemplative, they work almost exclusively in a group, serving as a confidant for many of their siblings.
Kamut wears the great Calix, and channels their elemental powers through their Gelid Censer. Unlike other toa heroes, they use the Calix's foreknowing powers to try and predict little, infinite, possible futures instead of pushing their instincts to unnatural limits.

Pointless crossovers spark a certain kinda joy you don't really get from anything else. Especially if they're your favorite childhood shows/games.
my personal two favorite crossovers are fnaf/LN and fnaf/ATLA.
As you can see the media I consume always has dead/traumatized children. Surely this says nothing about me, personally, and is just a coincidence 😌

sometimes i think about when i was a teen and my dad asked me if i had any social media and i told him "i have a tumblr but i don't post much and it's anonymous" thinking i was going to get the typical internet safety lecture and instead he just nods and goes "i go on tumblr sometimes" and neither of us ever brought it up again and... i'm never gonna get closure on that one am i?

ningling ge (ic): if you're going to pull a knife, in the future can you give me a heads up first
queen yeli (ic): this queen has gotten old, i forgot...
ningling ge (break char): 🤨 (looks at director)
(offscreen): maybe we shouldn't mention the age thing? because you really don't look old... (collective offscreen laughter)
queen yeli (break char): i'm playing his mom, how am i not old?
ningling ge, over her: it's because of your beauty... [the sweet-talking prince]
(offscreen): then that would mean probably you were 15-16 when...
queen yeli: so i'm 35-40, (motherly patting nlg) i mean how old is he? 17? 18?
ningling ge, played by fully late 30s actor yan su: ... i think that's a little ... let's say 24-25. (straight-faced -> starts cracking up, hiding face in scriptbook)
queen yeli, ignoring his crisis: 🤔 so if you're 25, and i was 15, so right now i'm 35?
[25+15=?]
ningling ge: hey aren't you supposed to be playing a youth general?
[pan over to s2 mqmb, also played by late-30s actor, bald with facial hair]
s2 miqin mubei: the youth got old, right

Every day is a culture shock
Bro ive been on the internet for how long and I'm still in a perpetual state of culture shock?
I feel insane when I hear that people don't take family roles or family duty as seriously as I do.
My best friend loves to send me posts of People complaining about family and we both look like
Oh that's crazy! They're not even defending the family honor and reputation from outsiders????? Literally insane!! Even if you hate your family, you still have to defend them from outsiders. What's even going on?
To us it's like instinct. Even if your parents are straight up evil, you still have access to connections and favors by virtue of your last name. You have to defend the last name so you can keep using that. It's not a common idea? CRAZY! And what about your younger generations? You want to ruin it for them too?
Despite being females, we are both the firstborn son of our households. And then we go online and nobody knows wtf we're talking about
Wtf you mean you're the oldest and you're not at least the firstborn daughter? It comes with birth. You don't have any of those duties? Then what do you do?
Like obv were not robots. I have a lot of friends that didn't do some of their duties. Whether they disagreed or were lazy or just didn't want to, the word "duty" is always there. "That duty was stupid so I didn't do it". Fair. Your choice.
dude ok I know I'm aware other cultures exist and they're different. I didn't realize in practice its SO different. people look at me like I'm fucking insane bro!!!
I had a conversation with a girl and she's like "you're so lucky you have a great relationship with your dad!" And I was like "not all my siblings have this close relationship. I earned my right to stand as his equal by completing all my family duties (almost) perfectly"
Like I earned my right that when we argue I can say he's "being cringe". I earned my right to argue actually. I earned this by repeatedly demonstrating responsibility, maturity, and correct priorities.
Dude that girl said this sounds like child abuse and I was like dawg wtf are you talking about 💀 your parents don't let you earn standing? Do they even love you? (That was mainly ego. She insulted my family so I tried to as well).
I'm guilty of growing up in a mixed asian society. My best friend grew up also In a mixed Asian society but a different one. In mine, the largest groups were Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai and Korean followed by every other kind of Asian.
Her area's largest groups were japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Indian followed by every other kind of Asian.
So it's kinda different but close enough. She knows how to eat with her hands and I know how to eat with chopsticks. We all celebrate 2 kinds of lunar new year. One by the south asian lunar calendar and one by the east Asian lunar calendar (don't ask, I don't know why we have 2 lunar calendars. You would think there's only 1?)
Both our areas, aunties will scold you if they hear you talk disrespectfully to your parents. Both our areas people will look down on you for not knowing your home language. Both our areas, the elders expect proper acknowledgement.
There are differences too. In my area, those who disrespect you must be disrespected In return. It's an offense to your family that they think they are allowed to disrespect you. In her area, the disrespect will happen but not to the face. You have to show you're from a better family. Here you have to show you are aware of the bullshit and you won't let it slide. I think its a difference between acting on behalf of your family vs acting with permission from your family. That's my speculation.
When teachers at my school said "grades don't matter" we said "then don't grade us? Liar". When teachers at her school said that they said "we understand, thank you for telling us" and then told their parents and the parents filed a report against the teachers for intentional misleading and sabotage.
The levels or respect and politeness and what kinds of actions imply what about your family were a culture shock to me. When I visit her, I have to adjust to be a lot more mellow and polite than I have to show here. Here, the elders accept any proper acknowledgement like "hi grandma" is fine. Even "hello" or a wave is fine. There, elders expect you to acknowledge them according to their culture. I personally fuck this up so bad because I don't even know who they are so i just copy what my friend is doing. And then I get the relation wrong and then they stare at me. Sometimes I'm lucky.
Over here, we don't really know too many people. It's not as social. Where she lives, everyone knows everyone.
I don't know how to describe this melding aside from just generally "asian" .
I log on to the internet and there's no shared culture except for speaking English 🤣 HAH.
It's like the difference between going to a swimming pool vs a jacuzzi
Vs jumping into a pile of leaves
Previously the common factor was water. Now the common factor is that it's matter.
I'm being so deadass I feel like me and some fictional characters from cultivation novels have more in common
#the craziest part is when we meet asians who didnt grow up around asians and we also dont connect like at all#we were talking to one and that guy was like oh yeah family honor duties blah blah my parents told about that ancient shit. i#and were like ..... ANCIENT???????#it certainly helps when your neighbors are drilling in the exact same fillial code into their kids in laos while yours are in hindi or cant#korean aunties scolding me for having a temper tantrum in broken english is a vibe#some words#on a smaller scale you know what else is a culture shock#how much east asians value fruit as a gift#south asia we have coconuts and fruits in abundance so our culture sees fruit as love but its not THAT expensive#idk about chinese but apparently korea fruits are FUCKING EXPENSIVE#one time my mom cut fruit and brought it to the park where we were all playing and the moms were like you are a saint#and my mom was like its only natural. the kids are playing so i should feed them. and theyre like but its fruit#and i was like yeah. its good for us. my mom wouldnt try to poison us. i didnt realize why it was such a big deal#because fruit prices here are kinda rough now but not THAT expensive.#apparently the gesture means everything#i dont even know what the point of this was. i just wanted to say it#also if you recognize which locations im talking about by description..... hehehehe#for us the luxury good is nuts and all the chinese friends whose house ive been to their mom always offers roasted nuts#and im like gawdDAMN you guys rich or something? im that much of an honored guest?

OR maybe he wouldve said if youre not going to make this very specific one im looking forward to then dont bother i dont want you#wasting the time and effort and then she wouldnt have been mad. or maybe she wouldve. ppl do get weird about that kind of thing#maybe saying that wouldve been a crime too. guess that dumb asshole shouldve shut up and eaten his stupid cake and enjoyed it and said#nothing. a recipe for happiness#anyway. hot take ig stop putting nuts in desserts. alllergy havers will prolly thank you but you know who else will thank you?#every day i see takes about food that make me think i really should be more of a picky bitch eater on maim to knock yall pretentious#food fuckers down a peg tbh. every day i resist the urge but god how yall test me. let me be the judge on a cooking show.#weird assholes who are rude abt ppl having allergies or sensory issues: come here. im going to break you#anyway more of us picky bitches who are picky just for like. casual reasons. we should he loud picky bitches on main. if a cook or baker or#whatever can accommodate my picky bitch ass thats difficult to feed for no reason we can be sure they can accommodate allergy havers#and ppl w medical restricted diets. if they can be gracious about me just not vibing w the food then they can def be gracious about more#sensitive reasons. yea i could choke down the food i dont like probably. it wouldnt make me throw up or send me to the hospital. but why#should i? if youre an asshole to me about simply not liking your shit then why the hell would i feel safe disclosing medical info to your#bitch ass? why would i trust you to follow it? and not try to sneak some shit in bc you think you know better about food?#anyway#picky eater rights. let ppl be picky for no apparent reason. cos the ppl who have uwu Good Valid Reasons(tm) dont fucking owe you that#explanation

This was supposed to stay a doodle. It was only supposed to have scribbly line art but then I made it nice. Then it was only supposed to have scratch color, but- well, anyway I drew a meme again! I had to. Emotionally damaged man is handed kids and quickly becomes dad is one of my favorite character arc tropes ever! So of course this was my favorite part of the book!
Characters are from @scribbly-blue-hearts' book Stormbite. If you enjoy sci-fi bird people, consider checking it out!
