and i had to wonder.......was it even possible for fictional characters to be friends and coworkers with each other? or could we only exist in a world where all dynamics are processed through the lens of the nuclear family?

there’s this term i coined in my friendgroup i call “the charizard effect” and it can apply to anything and everything, but it was born from me explaining my feelings about the pokemon charizard. the term is basically about how overexposure to something be it by corporate shilling or fandom prominence drives me away from really enjoying something bc i’m exposed to it so much against my will i become tired of it. it came to me bc i was ranting about how tpci does not, and cannot stop reinventing charizard, and how it is popular and obtusely included in almost every region, merch, etc in every way possible and it’s highly commodified.

i dont dislike the pokemon charizard, in fact i really like its X form, but i am exposed to so much charizard in my pokemon consumption that i cant be bothered to care for it in any more than in passing. this applies to a bunch of other stuff i’d otherwise be ok with, but i always just call this aversion phenomena “the charizard effect”

making this term has done numbers for me being able to concisely express how i feel abt something. like. its not charizard’s fault i feel this way, im sure i’d feel normal abt it if it was stripped of all this over commodification, but i cannot. hence the name

Random question: any thoughts on Pharaoh Man? Mindshift AU, Eco AU, secret third thing, I’m just curious if you have any thoughts on him.

i think mindshift pharaoh is aloof but not hostile, confident but to a fault. tends to get false impressions of his own abilities and this can trip him up for sure and get him to spiral. im not exactly sure what he does as a job? but something considerably more mundane than canon likely industrial work of some sort especially the kind requiring the mass commanding of other robots.

likes to gather interesting things he finds and stashes them away, or keeps them with him to keep his hands busy. given that his underlings do most of the work and his main job is to keep them organized and in check he tends to find himself lost in his own thoughts and sometimes just looks for stuff in order to pass the time. he likes looking through these trinkets just for fun too, maybe to reorganize them or dig out something more interesting to fiddle with, doesnt tend to move them from wherever he hides them usually unless its insecure in there in some way.

i do think he has Weird feelings toward his design and how hes built in general. often feels disconnected from his physical body and whole situation, weird feelings towards his subordinates and whatever might be above him. can go from a sense of grandeur and control to fear and paranoia, and this can vary a lot from flimsy to unshakeable. generally prefers the former than the latter because being scared like that is NOT fun and if that happens he'll not be getting work done properly and that can lead to a domino effect of consequences. that also leads to him getting even more stressed during the onset of such an episode which makes it even worse

his aloofness towards others can be out of a sense of superiority, but really its simply because he wasnt designed to be social and so doesnt tend to be interested in others very much. its far more likely that he'll be interested in what someone is doing than the actual person themself. doesnt get many opportunities to experience interesting going-ons and shenanigans so if hes in a good place chances are he'll want to see what its about

"everyone should get more aromantic" can appeal to tumblr's sensibilities but I genuinely think everyone should also get more asexual. I don't mean everyone stop having sex, what I mean is

Sex is not essential. You can live without it. Full stop.

Not having sex isn't shameful or a sign of failure. It also doesn't make anyone boring.

You are not entitled to having sex with anybody and nobody is entitled to having sex with you.

Sex is not what makes someone an adult.

Nobody's worth is defined by how much sex they have or don't have.

Sex is not equally important to everyone.

You can have fulfilling and happy relationships without sex.

You should only have sex on your own terms, not because you feel like you owe it to someone, or because you feel like you'd be incomplete without it.

Know your boundaries around sex and be firm about them. Know how to respect other people's boundaries.

The previous point also applies when it comes to discussing sex. If someone doesn't wanna talk about it or hear about it you have to back down.

Anything can be sexual but not everything has to be sexual.

Assrou N'Swoul counterweight veil pendants made of brass, iron and copper are received by a girl as a gift from her mother. Their size indicates the wealth of the girl’s family.

The method of laminating used on these pendants is known as the “sandwich” technique, which involves very time consuming and delicate work by the Mauritanian smiths. From: Africa Online Museum; Niger; Tuareg Wedding and Bianou Celebration.
