shoutout to the CCOD finale for perfectly capturing the feeling of being a kid and playing a game that you sort of know? but really you just want to play pretend with your friends and do bits after school
Also love that whenever someone does a Nixon impression now it's always just Billy West's version of Nixon he does on Futurama, which stems from West as a kid watching a Nixon debate and thinking he always looked like he was seconds away from turning into a werewolf

My personal headcanon for Ash Ketchum has always been that regardless of if his dream ever came true he'd never truly stop traveling and learning. Because despite "becoming a pokemon master" being his goal if you actually sit down and watch like Any episode of Pokemon the thing that always holds true is his curiosity and desire to learn everything he possibly can related to pokemon. And he'll try anything to! He did contests and the battle frontier. He'd do those silly little shows with Serena if they'd let him.
So I like to imagine him continuing on in life as this nomad who people don't automatically recognize as anyone important ya know? Just this goofy guy going from place to place always lending a helping hand and hes got a cute lil pikachu on him. And hes often lost somewhere with a friend just exploring the woods to see if he'll find anything cool. Ya know, as hes always been, but older now. And its only once hes drifted once more do you maybe stumble into an article on the pokeweb about him and are like... that guy??
thereβs a dedicated ashandpikachuspotter account somewhere on some social media. You tag a photo or search for a term and boom, thereβs pics of this guy. this dude. this man. with his pikachu. and itβs thousands of strangers from across the globe coming on line to talk about some stranger that they met briefly and then never saw again. theyβve compiled their stories and their approximate locations and mapped his journey from continent to continent, a long snaking pathway that spans decades and thousands of miles. Heβs apparently one of those Kanto kids that the government let just drop out of school. Its working out very well for him.Β
Thats so funny, to imagine him as a pokeweb criptid type character a la the florida man
the one thing about him is he's also not gonna think he's famous or ever mention it himself

Imagine being Tyler.
Your bosses are super toxic. They pay for your grandpa to leave his terrible housing. They tell you to work 17 hours a day. They immediately give you a promotion. You've never seen them in the daytime and they think lunch happens at 8pm.
Their one friend who's always wearing a denim vest with no shirt and suddenly has a horse following him around at all times has a weird vendetta against you for seemingly no reason
They've given you two antique Rolexes.
you are not allowed to cry. their hot, french friend points out that you need to wear a tie. at one point, they ask you to spend several hours driving multiple buses to an empty lot. you will never not be wearing a tie ever again.
you drink blood straight from one of their hands and it gets you so high you punch through a brick wall. immediately after this, they have you escort patty babcock (21 year old college student they have been obsessed with for months and ordered two food trucks for) to them for a meeting. when they dismiss you, youβre still so high that you jump thirty feet straight on the air and sprint out a window.
wait so vesper died in 2003, 23 years ago, and nancy is 51. she was 28 when she wrote that obituary. how long do you think sheβd been working for the omaha sunday scoop at that point? no wonder it hit hard, a girl just a few years younger than she is, passionate and driven like she is, who never had the chance to be more. how much of nancyβs career do you think was driven by the determination that someone needs to tell the story of people who think theyβll disappear without anyone noticing, how many nights did she spend doggedly pursing a story, exhausted and upset, and pulling out that old obituary for the strength to keep pushing forwards?
my dad is very intensely involved a battle with his cityβs public administration over a playground they have tried to forcibly remove like five times in the past 20 years and DID remove once in like 2005 but then had to rebuild because my dad was such a pain in their asses and came through with undeniable receipts of the zoning plan from the 60s/the historic/cultural value of the urban planningβ¦. like thereβs a woman in the city office who is his arch nemesis. he is literally the daredevil of urban planning
everyone in the tags needs to stop saying they want to fuck my dad.

Iβm glad that in Season 6 miraculous stopped leaving queer ships as just implied. because itβs so easy for people to discard queer ships since βtheyβre not canonβ, even if thereβs a vast quantity of evidence that suggests otherwise (but people shouldnβt have to be detectives when it comes to queer ships).
it makes me happy that our queer ships are finally being more than just implied. Juleka and Rose are shown together, doing couple-things. They talk about being together, and they kiss. In previous seasons they were just βclose friendsβ. This also goes for Nathaniel and Marc. I donβt remember exactly which episode, I think it was Sleeping Syren, but theyβre shown kissing in the end collage thing. Like, theyβre literally canon, and Iβve been saying that since they started making that comic together π€·ββοΈ
Its like watching your parents go through a divorce
"I didn't mean to out you!"
"OUT ME???!!??" --LaVonte Worthy, the totally-not-gay man in a suit from San Fran who bought a home with his multi-decade partner

Wick's occasional outbursts of anger are such an underrated aspect of his characterization. Beyond just being something refreshingly different from his usual sweet/sad/scared trinity, I think it shows A LOT about the environment he was raised in.
Wick is a patient man, he only actually breaks down into anger when he's already been pushed to his limit with stress. His grandmother refusing his pleas to spare Thjazi and Tyranny continually ignoring him, his first time on death's door, being insulted (and even punched) constantly by his allies, etc. And when he snaps it only directed at the cause of his frustration (Tyranny disobeying him, Thaisha killing one of the luxes in a spur of the moment, Julien punching him). And when he doesn't have someone in particular to snap at, he just simmers in self-resentment.
When he does lose his temper, it reflects on Yanessa in a couple interesting ways. For one, it honestly makes him resemble Yanessa's aggression a lot. It's quick, it's loud, and it's mean.
But moreso it reflects the effect growing up around her anger had on him and his ability to stand up for himself. He may have been his family's favorite child, but his reaction to Yanessa's outburst in episode 3 reads to me as someone who is used to seeing it and being cowed into submission by it, or seeing others be cowed by it.
It explains a lot about Wick, despite sometimes having misplaced confidence, being so hesitant to actually stand up for himself until his stress boils over into rage and he can't stop himself. Then he usually feels the need to apologize immediately afterword. Being in that environment trained him to be obedient and passive, even in the face of anger and insults.
He never learned to stand up for himself normally, so now he just lets his stress build up continuously until it boils over into aggression.
Angry Wick you'll always be famous I love you.
HJ and LaVonte is what happens when you never have a "what are we?" conversation btw. They just are.
I really like how the scientology speedrunning trend is developing, in this clip we see that the participants are
Not deterred by the closed door
Working as a group
Protecting their identities
Inflicting material costs to the institution via property destruction
Getting away at the end
These ideas were not all here from the beginning. They are genuinely gaining experience that can be applied elsewhere
i think completely pre transition trans people should be able to wear one tiny little pronoun pin and get gendered correctly every time. i think cis people should be transitioning just for the fun of it if they want to. i think you should be able to walk into any pharmacy and just buy hrt. i think that little boys should be able to sit in circles and play with dolls and paint each other's nails and make friendship bracelets. i think that little girls should be able to play with flaming monster trucks and play football and get competitive over video games. i think that arson (he/it/paw) should have paw's identity respected and treated as completely normal. i think that we should normalize neopronouns and weird genders and being weird or unusual in general. you should be able to explain your weird one of a kind xenogender to the least queer person on the planet and they should say "oh that's cool!! haven't heard of that gender before". you should be able to wear a tail in public you should be able to make out with your computer if you want i don't fucking care. i love transgenders i love neurodivergent people i love furries i love everyone outside the norm i love freaks i love nerds i love everyone.

when an artist draws fem versions of male characters but makes them skinnier smaller and less muscular................im not saying this is illegal but when their heart will be put on a scale it ain't gonna be lighter than a feather
Any time someone starts some bullshit about how humans are hyperindividualistic and inherently selfish and exclusively motivated by self-intetest, I'll just tell them to go ahead and go do it then. Go live alone. Fuck off into the woods to make sure that no society ever benefits from your presence. See if you can teach yourself how to make a spear out of a rock or a shelter for one from nothing but your own wits and the nature around you. Go see how natural that feels, how happy it makes you to know that you don't need nobody and that nobody's life is improved by your presence.
So how come you don't have that skillset? Solitary animals that don't meet other members of their species outside of mating seasons tend to just fuck off from the nest and be completely fine on their own. Rattlesnakes don't need instructions for how to rattlesnake. Needing to be taught human survival skills implies you would need other people.
Hot take!
The desire to escape society and the need for human interaction are not mutually exclusive.
I'm not any kind of expert on this, I just want to share my thoughts so please don't come at me--
Humans are social animals, through and through. We literally evolved to interact. The primary reason we have language and the ability to think abstractively is because early humans somehow had to learn to communicate their needs to others, otherwise they died. They needed help to survive. Hence, our brains are biologically hardwired for seeking interaction and it is something a brain needs to developed healthily.
If someone is 100% sure they would be completely fine with zero human interaction then that person should get help from a specialist. Preferably fast.
However, modern society does not always provide healthy interaction simply because modern society tends to be too big.
The need to escape into the woods far away from humanity is usually felt by people being born in big cities and as someone who was born in a big city I totally get it. Too much interaction is owerhwelming and when you are surrounded by people from all sides your mind starts to wonder - would it be easier if I just disappeared. We go from one absolute to another and it is very fucking sad that very few people are told that there is a middle way.
We aren't meant to live in groups of thousands, surrounded by infrastructure from all sides. Such intensive urbanisation leads to zoochosis - and yes, humans can experience it too - procrastination, compulsive behaviours, doing things on autopilot, the need to be better, etc. You name it!
So, yeah, the desire be alone is there because of too much stimuli from all sides. It is not healthy or reasonable or practical and if followed would almost certainly lead to death. Biologically, it doesn't make sense. Abstractively, it's perfectly sound.
But, well, this is just my uneducated opinion and I'd love to talk about it.
You're not wrong, but we are talking about two completely different subjects here.
