I Defeated the Demon Lord but it Turns Out the Demon Army was Largely Unaffected and I Fell Victim to a Flawed Belief in Great Man Theory

I Executed The Demon Lord With One Flawless Strike And After A Brief Power Struggle The New Demon Government Is Substantially More Committed To The War Because Of Some Reason I Don't Know

I Successfully Overthrew The Demon Lord And Instituted Demon Democracy But They Voted For A Commie So The CIA Not Some Fantasy Equivalent The Actual CIA Who Have Known About Magic And Alternate Realms The Whole Damn Time But Won't Just Unisekai Me Launched A Counter Coup And That's When Things Really Went To Shit

the best death note joke format will forever be L asking light a simple question in which logical answer A might increase the likelihood of light being kira and logical answer B similarly might increase the likelihood of light being kira and after a short internal struggle light comes up with answer Y, which no human being has ever thought of as being a normal response in all of living history

the "what are your pronouns" comic is my fave example.

im sorry but what other anime can like replicate the absolute cinema of death note. the omnious latin chanting. the blatant mental health disorders of every single character. the saucy trombone as ppl drop dead. the swoosh of the pen, hand jerking around, arm fully extended. the fucking helicopter shootouts over literally a notebook. the dark catholic imagery. the typeface. the significance of a single letter. the sexy lesbian goth model with a bubbly personality and undiagnosed bpd. ok. the autistic honor student who has to be god or else he really is a criminal. the autistic detective who immediately solves the mystery and nobody believes him. the dramatic irony of every aspect. the bury ur gays trope. the bury most of the cast. the diabolical laughter of a shinigami with a gay earring and snatched waist with a crippling apple addiction who set up the whole show. random bondage. ok. doomed yuri. doomed yaoi. everyone who uses this book is doomed.

You really just had to be there 😭

Me @ me: it's okay to have multiple conflicting ideas about Hollanov dynamics and to enjoy things that feel ooc, normal even, no one is going to kill you for letting multiple head cannons exist at the same time and it's fine that you reblogged two very opposing posts back to back, and find some kinks simultaneously hot and super icky.

”getting thicker skin” is great in theory but I think for some people “get better at handling your thin skin” is gonna be way more helpful advice. I have strong emotional reactions to criticism and they might never go away, but i can continue to try and handle each situation maturely and that’s the important part. Sometimes irrational feelings are chronic and living with them is better than trying to beat yourself up into not having them.

This is great advice because it still recognizes that "handle the situation maturely" still needs to be the endgame.

admire folks who reblog posts which contradict eachother. exactly! keep em guessing

fuck people who reblog posts which contradict each other. no! be explicitly clear

WAIT HOLD ON I cannot fucking believe when I was like four years old my parents were cajoling me to walk with the family and trying to get me to keep up even though I kept insisting that I was "tired" until they took me to a doctor and found out my LUNGS DIDN'T WORK. how insane that we live in a world where reasonably loving parents think their FOUR YEAR OLD is trying to be LAZY. like they were mortified to be clear. adults are just so trained to ignore children's complaints as untrustworthy, kids just need discipline, they can't possibly speak for themselves. what the fuuuuck.

YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE BTW you should always be trying to take children seriously, especially very little ones but definitely all of them. the most disempowered class basically legally defined as property and most people are like "yeah that's good actually I hate when they Loiter lol they're stupid and loud and i actually think children should stop existing. restrict their personhood more actually"

gothic horror is when there's a location. cosmic horror is when there's an unauthorized fucking Thing. folk horror is when you're outside.
