Kinnikuman rocks because thereās this dude who is a high ranking warrior of Satan from the Bible and is well remembered for his signature move that completely dismembers and disembowels the enemy that is hit by it, an incredibly powerful warrior, and he looks like this
his name is Springman and he is a big spring.
Miraculous funger au part 2 Alya, Nino, And Chloe.
Continuing on from the previous post, we get to the season two kwami bearers. Starting with Alya Cesaire ,the journalist. Keeper of of an enlightened soul, One who seeks knowledge and secrets hidden beneath the surface: That is, one who wishes to know their place in the grander scheme of things. While other keepers of the enlightened soul tend to delve into the occult and the magics of the old gods, Alya is rather thoroughly invested in more mundane affairs as a wannabe journalist. Looking into political entities rather than divine ones. in fact, Were it not for the things going on in their city, Alya would be a fully atheistic character. Her story would largely be that of Marinette's confidante and main source of moral support. she is among the last potential moonscorches, Only showing up if Marinette leaves her in the dark too long. Trixx the enlightened one is her sort of 'Patron' among the new era's new got pantheon. And she is the one to give clear insight on why the newgod pantheon is watching over the characters: In a bout to expand their influence past their fast approaching expiration date on the golden throne, they're essentially looking to create their own successors. The service she offers to alya are fortune telling, and the exchange of 'old information for new' that is to say, If alya brings her new subjects of study, she will give Alya skinbibles. to enact rituals to the old gods.
If she feels abandoned and alone in her quest for the truth, she moonscorches into the gadfly: A horrid creature that skulks about like a scavenging beast, using presumption to justify all manner of evil, in a 'boss fight', The gadfly will ask leading questions, Attempting to dismantle the morality of the people that confront her, Those that point out her fallacies and contradictions cause magical damage to her, Otherwise, she uses primarily debuffiing and damage over time to painfully widdle down her enemies. Nino Lahiffe the DJ, the keeper of a defiant soul, Though we don't have a character in fear and hunger to give a good notion of what this soul represents, It can be inferred to be the soul type of those who reject and resent certain things hoisted upon them: Rules, Responsibility, Authority. Etc.
Nino's role is a little more independant than in canon, Where Alya is looking into things in the open, Nino tends to look into the goings on on his lonesome, playing private investigator as a means to duck suspicion as he holds a lot less trust in the system than his potential other half, his investigation leading him to Fu, who after a misunderstanding, becomes his teacher in the occult so that he can fight more proactively against the things going on.
this prevents him from being moonscorched at all, Or falling to other forms of mutation, However, his distrust for the advice of authority figures does tend to get him killed, A lot, Ala tanaka from termina.,
Chloe bourgeois the bully, Keeper of an antagonistic soul. Now, The antagonistic soul has no reference point for me to draw characterization from, However, Given what its called, I believe the antagonistic soul is one for those that carry a natural ability to create adversaries for themselves. whether the reasons or good or bad. the latter, quite obviously, in chloe's case. That isn't to say she's irredeemably evil, At least not to start, in fact she has the simplest conditions for not going off the deep end. Simply appealing to her ego before the first moonscorching of a classmate, will keep her annoying, but mostly morally sound. However, If you fail to prop her up enough, she winds up realizing the emotional state of her class has something to do with them becoming 'ugly monsters' as she puts it, And begins to get kind of a kick out of it, And will begin personally sabotaging her classmates at every opportunity. until she realizes she's all alone. If at least five classmates have moonscorched while she's not been rescued, She herself will moonscorch into 'sweetie bear' A docile moonscorch reflecting chloe's feelings of abandonment and loneliness. the only enemy that won't outright attack the others, And instead try to be helpful in a bid to be liked.
I have some news for members of the united states armed forces who feel like they are pawns in a political game and their assignments being unnecessary.
Are you in the military or thinking about joining? Are you unsure of where to get reliable answers? Call the GI Rights Hotline at 1-877-447-
Maybe spread this link compassionately in online spaces where these people might see it. This is extremely important.
Maybe it's just because we're living in an era of highly elevated Intellectual Property rights management , but it's insane to me that they were allowed to do this, even in the early 80's.
"Ultraman is on vacation so no one's around to stop the monster except our original character" is one thing, but "Ultraman got his shit kicked by our original character and retired in shame" is nuts.
one way to combat this is to be confidently proactive and no-shame reactive. they're still little enough that they think the world of you as a parent or an adult. the key is being casual instead of shocked and upset.
"oh, i don't think that's just for girls. it's pink, but anybody can like pink."
"oh yeah, purple is a great color! colors are for everybody."
"you're right-- i am a girl. that means i have a strong body just like a boy, and i can [climb/use a drill/take out the trash] with my arms."
"hm i don't think we're letting private parts make a decision about this toy."
"if other kids give you a hard time, you can just say you like this toy (or this color) and that's why. if anyone is rude to you, it might hurt, but they're the ones being wrong."
"i think it's cool that we both have eyes that can cry if we're feeling overwhelmed or sad. it helps us communicate how we feel."
"some kids might tell you this is for girls, but it's really just for people. we can have fun and play with anything safe that's interesting. it's sad that some kids don't have adults that teach them that."
"it's important to play and learn all kinds of skills. what if you find out you like to cook? what if someday you have a friend who needs help?"
"you know who buys the MOST glitter? people who make paint for boats. guys who go fishing spend more time with glitter than anyone else."
"it's divided into girls and boys because some grownups maybe care more than they should about colors. but that's not a real rule."
like. you gotta prepare them to stand up for themselves and you gotta normalize *recognizing* and dismissing those comments, or they WILL start to win out. walk your toddler sons or nephews down all the toy aisles. let them hold a baby doll. take your girls through the hot wheels and nerf sections.
and don't make the mistake of swinging to the other extreme. trying to talk a four year old boy into the pink version, or trying to talk a four year old girl out of wanting a frilly dress are JUST as gendering. you're sending signals that they should ignore their own preferences to appease an adult's preferred worldview, and they're going to equally cave when it's in support of an ideology you don't like. let them gravitate toward what they like and give them the language to recognize it as personal preference-- to identify and disregard comments, or defend others-- even if their preference is 100% mainstream.
the goal isn't to make sure little boys have pink toys and play house, or that little girls get construction tools and wear blue.
the secondary goal is to strip away the gender-signaling in toys and prepare kids to stand up for OTHER HUMANS.
the primary goal is to equip kids to play and wear what they like without shame or fear.
and it's so fucking sad it starts so early, but it can work both ways-- you can have kids going home from the same daycare suddenly equipped by peers to say, NO I DO WANT THE TOOLBOX FOR MY BIRTHDAY, NOAH SAYS HIS MOM FIXES EVERYTHING IN HER HOUSE and I LIKE THE ONE WITH FLOWERS, SOPHIE SAYS HER DAD LOVES FLOWERS.
maybe this means liam in kindergarten spends most of his playtime with baby dolls and glitter stickers. or maybe it means liam plays with monster trucks and wears red shirts with basketballs, but will tell a peer, "oh it's cool that you like pink. is that your favorite color? i like red but pink icing is my favorite on cake." and it's because a beloved uncle or big brother or parent said, "oh strawberry icing is MY favorite, too! i always want pink icing on my cake. the cake doesn't care if i'm a boy or a girl."
or maybe liam had an experience like my five year old, where he was going across a construction store parking lot in his bright pink crocs and a man tumbled out of his SUV fifty feet away to stick a leg in the air and yell, "HEY, WE BOTH HAVE PINK CROCS!" just to be nice. because pink is for humans.
tl;dr -- i get the grief here. i've felt it, too. but the way we change this isn't with shock or dread. it's with intention and grace and being involved. in modeling conversation and comments without spite or criticism.
miraculous ladybug funger au
I have been radicalized by indie horror , this is your problem now.
The basic set up is simple, after the machine god rose to prominence the world of fear and hunger becomes similar to the modern Day, and the characters live their lives in the kingdom of rhondon peacefully until Incidents of 'lunar cancer' begin to crop up around the city the miraculous characters are loving in
For those who never played fear and hunger, lunar cancer, or more commonly known by the fandom as moon scorching is a phenomena caused by the influence of the moon god Rher, a trickster deity that holds a strong distrust for humankind.
Moonscorching usually takes the form of tumorous growths and mild to severe warping of the body, while those with deeper emotional baggage become twisted parodies of their negative self image.as a sort of comparison to akumatization. Now given the context, Obiviously Gabe is the one causing this, But see, The deities of fear and hunger are a lot harder to manage than the Qwami so his lot includes a lot more trouble in staying anonnymous, or sain for that matter, as the influence of the gods degrades the mind and bodies of those that follow them to the degree that they can use the magics associated with the deities in question to start with the basis of this au, i'll go over our two main characters.
Marinette Dupain Cheng, The stylist, and keeper of an endless soul, One that represents infinite potential and imagination. Being an average girl in the kingdom of Rhondon, Her religious affiliation is with the god of Hope and Dominance Alll-mer, Much the same as in canon she is a kind natured, but occasionally selfish and overconscientious young woman, Who as the story would progress find herself drifting into a mixed affinity for the first of the arisen gods, and the old god Sylvian, The mother goddess of love creation and,lets say intimacy. Being the bright and helpful girl she is she takes it upon herself to do some personal investigation of the moonscorch phenomena, Being a young teenager she obviously has no business looking into all of this, But many of her friends have lost loved ones to the disease, its only right she does something, Eventually coming into contact with one of the newer gods., the most recent holder of the endless one's throne: Tikki, Who acts as a vendor for her specifically: Offering lucky coins and rare healing items. Marinette, If she is to reach a state of abject despair, Will moonscorch into Miracle: a strange multi-armed woman constantly buzzing about with spotted wings trying to 'help' those around her, and who has entirely abandoned the worship of alll-mer for sylvian, Seeing that there is no hope, but there can be comfort in love.
Then, there is Adrien, The apprentice. And keeper of a blank soul, The soul of those who don't really have anything to call their own, Limited, Empty, and stagnant. Contrast to canon, Adrien is not a model: The high life that his father wants for him is in the halls of the vatican that he had failed to enter in his youth. And so, Adrian had been sequestered for most of his youth. As with all members of the priesthood, he has a deep connection to Alll-mer, However his secondary studies have led him to contact with the very strangely gregarious god of destruction, Gro goroth. After being allowed to attend public school ad the behest of the daughter of Gabriel's business partners, a temporary situation before he's shipped off to the vatican for theological study. His story is that of a partner to Marinette, latching onto someone that is, in many ways, his opposite as a means to experience vicariously the freedoms of the endless soul .But it holds its own intrigue. As thanks to his cloistered and lost sense of self, He has been targeted by Pocketcat, A servant of the moon god with, Less than reputable habits. Like Tikki to marrinatte, The pocketcat acts as a sort of personal vendor for Adrien, But instead of various odds and ends many other such characters would have to give up, Pocket cat only offers his exchanges for the heads of Adrien's classmates. While this seems like a poor connection to plagg, One there's already a weird cat man in F&H lore thats /Right fucking there/ And two, There is another character from fear and hunger canon to act as more tha friend and mentor role plagg has to adrien. That being a certain mercenary claiming to be among the first followers of the nameless god of fear and hunger. If this mercenary's encouragement and companionship falls through, And the emptiness in Adrien's heart overtakes him He will don the mask and overcoat of the pocketcat.
as an addendum to this due to the circumstances of the characters mari and Adrien each get an alternate bad ending.
If Marinette gives up on her friends and isolated herself, she will join a cult to a lesser known god: sulfur. Sacrificing herself and har family to the god to strain his favor.
The sulfur cult is one based on anarchic freedom and horrific hedonist tendencies, in many ways he is the Satan to alll-mer 's Jesus. Now, sulfur cultists don't just sacrifice themselves to a vegue god of suffering and chaos, they return as something else, unleashing their deepest, unmet wants , further at least two of the three sulfur cultists we meet in fear and hunger termina either are or have created references to well known horror movies. So Mari becomes 'dolly' themed after the annabel movies , with a few strings attached as a pun on the fact her name is one syllable away from Marionette. A perverse, magically inclined creature that keeps the bodies of what used to be her parents on strings using them to attack the party.
The circumstances by which she does this would be rare though , involving the usual set up for miraculous salt fics. Kind of a tongue in cheek nod.
For Adrien, his alternate lose condition (other than dying) is that if Adrien takes to the mercenary's advice and assistance more than pocketcat's , the man will give him a similar offer , though far less pushy , and presented more like a choice than an inevitability. Adrien will embrace the pure darkness of the god of fear and hunger, acting as her servant as a stalker type enemy, who's job is to hunt down the moon scorched, to both punish and relieve the pain of those who gave up on themselves
Modern crossover AU where Frisk makes it their mission to befriend the girl who always kept to herself ever since day one in school
Edit: fixed the pic layout bc WHY TF TUMBLR?!?!??! WTF.??? I hate this hellsite
Some more deets under the cut
One thing Iāve noticed about AI users is that they are completely repulsed by the notion of feeling bad or frustrated for even the slightest moment
Been trying to figure out how to phrase this nicely but tbh. I donāt care. If youāve ever made a consistent effort at anything, you learn to enjoy and even look forward to discomfort.
Exercise. Writing. Drawing. Gardening. Anything that requires your physical effort is going to require discomfort in one way or another and you have to find a way to enjoy that discomfort, otherwise the best thing for you, and Iām gonna hold you hand when I say this, is to just give up.
Any creative can tell you that theyāve thought about quitting more often than not, but when you make it through that discomfort, when you work hard to figure out what youāre doing wrong/what you donāt know how to do, you start to anticipate discomfort because it you KNOW represents an opportunity to level up. Itās exciting to have a hard time with something, because it means youāre going to get really, really good at it as long as you persevere.
And idk, Iāve thought for a while now that AI users think they have some sort of right to avoid all of that. That they have the right to never ever feel bad at anything they try. Itās why I think āmaking something is more rewardingā is never really going to work as an argument against AI use, because AI users canāt make it past the fear of discomfort and difficulty.
This is a skill called "distress tolerance"!!! I learned about it in therapy, working on it for things like social anxiety, PTSD, tasks like unpacking boxes after multiple rapid moves...... it's a skill that CAN be built. Just because you struggle with it now doesn't mean you're that way forever. And yeah, the skill can recede, and it makes sense that generative AI would contribute to this in a whole new way.....
I don't have it in me right now to make a whole addendum about how to get better at it, but hopefully putting this out here can help people, at least!
i think you also see this horror of discomfort in the indignant reactions ai enthusiasts display as soon as real artists give them friction for using ai. not only do they want to skip over the stress, frustration, and discomfort of doing art WORK, they also feel outraged when anyone challenges them for their decision and makes them feel Bad for it. they want freedom from effort AND freedom from criticism. they assumed that by skipping directly to the stage of producing a good-looking image, which is of course the only reason anyone makes art at all, they are now a good artist. and good artists get praised for making good art.
so what the fuck?? why are people trying to make them feel bad? this is supposed to be the part of making art where everyone loves you!
jokes on them, though. there is no part of making art where everyone loves you and no matter how many computers you use you will never find that part. hostile strangers demanding you justify your creative decisions is about 99% of the entire thing, and realizing the guy in the picture has two left hands is the other 1%

Baki Next gen part 5
Later in the day, After the fight had resolved, Baki would walk his daughter home from school.
He had a short meeting with the principle and tomoe was sent home early to think about what she had done.
"Your first ever real fight and you lose, You know Tomoe, i'm kinda disappointed."
"Disappointed? But that fight was unfair! It was three on one, i could have beaten any of them on their own."
Baki chuckled at her words., Making her raise a brow "Tomoe... That's the exact wrong kind of mindset to have: When you challenge someone, OR accept someone else's challenge, Those terms are set, You've agreed to them, and by extension the result."
Tomoe listened to her father intently, He really sounded like he learned that first hand...
"Did you ever have a fight like that, Papa?" She asked, Not even sure why she did, If he really did fight all those crazy strong people, a three on one would be nothing, Right?
Baki would sigh and get to thinking. "Well... The first fight i remember really mattering, is when i took on a gang of a hundred armed thugs."
If Tomoe had a drink, she'd be spitting it out. "You really can't expect me to believe that." She said, choking on air instead.
"It's true, I only managed to beat around thirty of em though, I lost handedly."
"T-thirty ? All by yourself?" Asked Tomoe amazed, "That doesn't sound like a loss at all! IF it was just you."
"Like i said before, Tomoe, When you challenge someone you accept the conditions, and therefor have to accept the results, That was an embarrassing loss on my end, No matter how you slice it." Baki answered in kind.
Tomoe sighed, And listened her pride didn't want her to admit it, But by the end of the fight she was the one who was knoecked on her butt and needed to be saved.
She'd have to give keisuke her thanks later... IT was him who dragged the three boys off her afterall.
Baki would notice how his daughter looked out of it and sighed. "Well, You have a decent bit of athleticism built up kiddo, I think it's time we take this whole training thing to the next stage."
Tomoe perked up and smiled ."Right!"
and so, as baki and Tomoe returned home, He began teaching her the basics of the martial arts, Begginning of course from the most basic of all fighting arts: How to properly form a fist.
