Obsessed with characters who portray themselves as worse than they are. Who are lying to everyone including themselves about it. People generally assume if someone's lying about themselves they're trying to look better but sometimes they're trying to look worse. They attribute agency to where they had none, add intend to accidents, try to convince everyone that this is something they did instead of something that happened to them.

#this is about tenko bnha #but it is also about dahlia ace attorney #watch the nezumiVA videos on ace attorney trilogy they're great #anyway dahlia saying she (at like. 6 years old) apparently convinced her father to abandon her sister. hmmm #also everyone including herself thinking of her as the manipulator in control with terry when she was 14 dating a 20 y/o #anyway these characters both did do terrible things but feel the need to pile on more and remove nuance from where it exists #to convince themselves that this is what they really want. that they chose this.#it's about the loss of control it's about being a victim feeling worse than being a villain #at least if you were the bad guy you had autonomy #shimura tenko #shigaraki tomura #dahlia hawthorne

The Mario movie thing is so funny to me. Here, look at this:

Sonic movies (1, 2, & w/ 3 on the way) come out, does INCREDIBLE in box office, decimates Marvel films, who previously had a stranglehold

Nintendo sees this, wants a piece of that pie, buckles down to make a Mario movie Incorrect order of events, as pointed out here! Mario movie announced before the public knew about Sonic movie.

(Potentially because the previous Mario movie was so out there, did poorly, & was disliked by fans & then promptly forgotten,) they pair with Illumination, a studio that is largely known for making very sterile films

Btw, is it just me that finds it weird that there is no mention from Nintendo or online of the previous movie, in all this? Maybe I'm the only one who remembers this film idk

They announce casting. Everyone immediately boos because they cast Chris Pratt as Mario.

Immediate outrage, as Charles Martinet, the voice of Mario for DECADES, was not cast in his claim to fame roll

There is a (unsourced) rumor that a test screening for the film was met with disappointment, making Nintendo unhappy

Slightly corroborating this, Nintendo buys Dynamo Pictures, to make Nintendo Pictures, with the intent to make future movies in-house

Anticipation for the movie likens it to other sterile animated movies of the last 10 years, like the Minions movies

Trailer comes out.

People continue to boo Chris Pratt, a bad cast for a beloved character who is putting 0 effort into his voice, in comparison to all other VAs putting in 110%

Chris Pratt goes to bed "depressed," at seeing the response I was incorrect, that is an older article, about when he was thanking his wife for providing a healthy child, to which people drew immediate parallels to his ex-wife's son, who has many health complications & needed many surgeries.

But with your help, we can make him being depressed after media backlash reality!

Lol, &, may I say, lmao.

#gale chatter #mario movie #chris pratt #sonic movie #btw i 100% believe that rumor you cannot tell me that ain't what happened #also it is transparent that nintendo wanted what sonic movie had #damn maybe i don't do that batim video as my first maybe i do mario movie #my hot take is they should have cast both charles martinet & the super mario bros super show va #& used them interchangeably #bc. that would own #i wanted to mention thr jack black ass thing here but i feel it's too out there & irrelevant #at first reading the quote ppl got mad at i was little like 'oh dang is this not as bad as i thought'#but then i remembered 1) it's chris pratt he says rancid shut all the time & 2)#this response of stating he feels depressed while not like apologizing is just to do nothing but evoke pity #& he easily coulda apologized & been like 'i didn't mean it that way' or 'i wasn't thinking abt it & I'm sorry'#but he's not sorry. he doesn't see anything wrong with what he said. it's the internet's reaction that is thr problem in his mind #so he wants to make them pity him & feel bad that shit is TEXTBOOK manipulation i would know lol

hey y’all the relationship between warden and vega fucking fascinates me

cause honestly i have absolutely no idea on how to characterize it

like yes he calls them ‘darling’ yada yada but he almost takes a paternal(?) role when it comes to nurturing them????

he rescues them, he feeds them, he tries to reconnect them with the demonic habits they were shamed out of expressing, he teaches them and tries to subtly influence their behavior towards a possible corruption arc and just

this isn’t me trying to make their relationship weird or smth i’m just saying i have absolutely no idea how vega and wardens relationship actually works between them… not every listener and character are destined to end in a romantic relationship so that’s why i’m thinking that the relationship between warden and vega won’t become romantic and more of that weird friendship you have with your 50 year old coworker who smokes 2 packs a day.

#pls lemme know what y’all think about this cause i’m going crazy.#i mean i wouldn’t hate it if it becomes romantic i think their relationship as is just fascinates me #and i don’t really. want it. to go too much further than it already is #i feel like warden is like a mini project for vega or smth lmao #literally every warden and vega video has a [MANIPULATION] warning so #idk how to really feel about them #so i’m very excited for any future vega update that explores the intricacies of their relationship as a whole #i’ve also been indoctrinated to enjoy old man yaoi in the form of brachium and vega #brachium and vega after accidentally adopting and completely altering the life of an innocent bystander 🫣🫣#anyways #redacted asmr #redacted audio #redactedverse #asmr boyfriend #boyfriend asmr #redacted vega #redacted warden #redacted darling #redacted incohate #redacted carpe deus

Mature for blood and themes:

The horror, satanic, gore filled, incest route having, cannibalism filled, video game: The Coffin of Andy and Leyley. Fun for the whole family! But jokes aside, the dynamic gaslighting of characters, their situations, dialog, and routes are fascinating. Part 1/4

~Please don’t repost or use my art~

✦ I made a pose pack in my store if you are interested ✦

#The Coffin of Andy and Leyley #horror #blood #i didn't wanna share cause i feel ppl will be weird about it when i just like the dynamic and horror aspects of their scenario #But i love how the demon was like yeah no u cant love your brother like that youll die tar soul #so the 3rd bunny is blood #she is so manipulative #an amazing character study #I couldn't watch it if it was a movie but as a sprite video game I can handle the whole chewing on bones n flesh thing #sorry if this is ur wakeup call that i like horror #video game #coffinshipping #coffincest #mature

TW: Abuse and Emotional Manipulation!

This scene makes me feel genuinely ill. The VAs do a fantastic job though.

It is not okay to speculate whether or not someone is suicidal. If they claim to be, you should 100% take that shit seriously and give them the benefit of the doubt.

That said, if someone is using their own suicidality as a weapon to gain sympathy, emotionally manipulate someone, or to push other people down, GENUINELY fuck that person. While it's not okay for us to doubt that statement just because they're weaponizing it, that also doesn't mean we need to ALLOW that manipulation to convince us of something.

If you feel the need to use your terrible mental health as a step-stool in a conversation to make your side more heard than the other, you need to take a step back and re-evaluate yourself. And I am saying this as someone who ALSO has shit mental health and has been in the trenches with it before. I get it. I understand. But also STOP.

It's tempting to want to save your own ass over recognizing where you've gone wrong, but just a word of advise: recognizing where you've gone wrong WILL save your ass and give you better mental health and wisdom down the line.

However, emotionally manipulating people absolutely will not.

#suicide mention #tw sui ment #tw suicide #suicide tw #tw sui #tw sui talk #james somerton #k with all that out of the way i do wanna say that this is a response to james' apology #im honestly glad he deleted the vid and also that he's going to genuinely get into a better place #that is GOOD #i mean this genuinely i hope he gets better #but also the fact that he opened the video with an emotional guilt-trip is something i have just been wanting to talk about for a long time #it's manipulation 101 #if you wanna tell your audience you're struggling with mental health that's one thing but not in a fucking apology video #and if you do need to mention it DONT MAKE IT THE VERY FIRST THING YOU SAY #that's such a shitty thing to do #what you need to do is apologize to everyone FIRST and say everything you need to say #and THEN bring that up #but even then i'd disclaim the shit out of it and make sure everyone knows it's not a guilt trip it's just true #but like. at the end of the day dragging your own mental health into an apology is a double-edged sword #tjhat really just depends on the situation #like i said i genuinely hope he gets better #but it's not just him doing this shit. i've seen like 3 cases of this shit in just the past few months #i guess james is just my excuse to finally say something about it

i think way too much about this movie.

anyways the announcer has more energy while saying the names of royal racers COUGH COUGH KING CANDY FORGOT TO REMOVE VANELLOPE'S

It’s like this video but the opposite .

youtube

#🎬#analysis #also the fact her full name shows up was probably a Big Scare for Candy cuz of her Von Schweetz surname eluding to royalty #oopsies!!!#thats why he waters her down to just vanellope and glitch #more so just ‘Glitch’#I think he only calls her vanellope 2 or 3 times and most of them are when hes manipulating ralph to get through to him #the first one was out of shock #VANELLOPE???#I think just cuz he heard the announcer voice and was repeating it #but yeah he loves dehumanizing her Like That #king candy #vanellope #wreck it ralph #sugar rush #Youtube #video

ok so i just finished reading this gay furry visual novel called Adastra, and i have to say.

it didn’t have the devastating emotional effect that i’ve heard it tends to have on many other readers, but then again i’m pretty sure that’s just because i’m attracted to large buff sword-wielding women and not large buff wolf boys.

and then i realized
