All My Unfiltered Glory

For the moment, this is my only blog, so my fic updates are interspersed with everything else I find vaguely interesting on the hellsite. Maybe I'll fix it. Or not. Who knows!

Luke Skywalker in The Mandalorian but it’s Toxic by Britney Spears

[gallusrostromegalus]

I’m gonna propose something: if your combat/ass-kicking sequence can’t fit to a top 40 female-vocalist Banger like “Toxic” or “Mama Mia” or “I Need a Hero” you’re not Doing It Right.

At this point its starting to feel like Editors are using 140-150bpm as a standard for action sequences, and I cant say I hate it.

[homestuckphobia]

I agree wholeheartedly with every point above but I watched this first with the sound off because I forgot that was an option and what struck me most is how efficient Luke's lightsaber style is. Almost every flourish he makes and all of what, 2 entire spins?, is defensive to better parry blaster fire while nearly every offensive swing he makes is basically a head or chest level kill shot. If I had to make a guess about his character I'd say this vintage twink has probably Seen Some Shit and maybe comes from a background where resources are scarce and help is far away so if you get in a fight you have to end it before it starts or you're dead meat

[screamting]

deeply want a time travel fic where Luke visits the old republic and the Jedi are like “that’s not a dueling style” and luke is like “yea am not doing much dueling tbh”

Hannah Montana is fucked up because its entire POINT as a show is that children should be protected from fame and exploitation, but it stars a REAL little girl that's being exploited. Nearly every episode carries the looming threat of Miley being outed as Hannah and losing her peaceful teenage life to the ravages of fame. Her father in the show (played by her own father in real life) wisely protected her from the trauma of fame by making her wear a disguise and live a rather quiet, interview-free life. Meanwhile the REAL Billy Ray Cyrus sold his daughter to Disney Channel when she was 11 and forced her to read dialogue about how terrible it would be to face the public eye. Like... Jesus, dude. The fictional Robby Ray is 10x the father, and it's not even close. (It's also IMMENSELY funny that her dad doesn't use his real name in the show, while she does. Almost like he wanted a bit of a disconnect between his identity and his character. Something Miley didn't get.)

there’s a twitter account where this guy thinks every tweet is directed at him and it’s great

[famicom]

this is how everyone on this website acts

[bluwubewwy]

Thats not true i dont think i act like this

[annabelle--cane]

I think eva stratt has detailed files on all petrova taskforce personnel that contain more information about their subjects than the subjects even know about themselves. several people in her employ have mild food allergies that she noted and had cut out of their diets via requests to the catering staff but that the people themselves have never consciously noticed, ilyukhina just thought she stopped getting regular stomach aches when she arrived on the vat because she's god's specialest engineer and not because all the dairy in her diet got swapped out for alternatives. grace does some shopping on the mainland at one point and doesn't realize he bought a different scent of moisturizer than usual so stratt just goes into his room and switches it with a hypoallergenic formula in an identical bottle. this is because she has never been normal about anything in her life.

Sokka was always like "I'm starving!" And "Where's the MEAT??" and "Yay! Free food! Grab as much as you can, guys!" But...

They never starved, you know? Sokka went hunting or fishing whenever they stopped long enough-- and even if the catch wasn't as much as he wanted to, I don't recall them ever going hungry.

When they were low on money and supplies, Sokka got a job on a fishing boat (Storm Episode). Or asked for food and money, as thanks for saving the village (Hei Bei Forest/spirit-kidnapping episode). Or something similar, the make sure that even if supplies were low, the pot was never entirely empty.

That's a skill.

Contrast that with Zuko and Iroh. Their first attempt at fishing caught barely a mouthful. They went hungry often-- even AFTER they began to resort to begging and stealing. They couldn't forage because they didn't know how to tell the edible from the poisonous.

It's easy to view Sokka as just the funny guy: he cultivated that part of his image, even. It's EASY to say that elite fighters with Royal tutors and private schools, etc, are better educated or more skilled than some teen from the Southern Water Tribe.

But when push came to shove? When it came to personally ensuring that nobody goes hungry while they're on this epic cross-country quest?

Sokka had them beat.

[gaylord-zuko]

And I think if Sokka ever couldn’t find or catch enough food for all of them, he would come back with what he had and say he already ate some of it.

“Ugh, you always think just because you’re the oldest you get to eat first,” Katara chides him. She rolls her eyes and grumbles under her breath about how boys are annoying and she wishes she had a sister.

Sokka just stretches casually and pats his stomach, hoping the rumbling will stay quiet enough that his sister can’t hear it.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Sokka’s constant insecurity with food and tendency to eat as much as he can at feasts etc. even though he’s perfectly capable of providing for the group indicates a past of food insecurity.

Remember in episode one, how desperate and invested he seemed out hunting with Katara? How uncertain it seemed that he’d catch anything, even though it’s made clear by the rest of the show he’s a competent provider? How angry he was when he blamed Katara’s “weird magic” for costing him the kill (he didn’t see the fish she’d caught with her bending)? The water tribe seem alright for food now (Katara’s just carrying around a fish to feed penguins later), but it’s likely that they were left hungry for awhile, during or after the Fire Nation attacks.

[crimson-constellations]

this takes place early in zuko’s reign while he’s still trying to figure out what’s the person he needs to be for his people and sokka really goes there and says “they don’t need you do be anything but yourself”

You ever think about many peices of media have zero women and thats just perfectly normal but if a peice of media has an all female cast people get... like that? Women should be allowed to kill over this btw

[loveshoplifter]

[i-enact-postvore]

That's right

old sparkledogs and cat ocs in the files of old computers. wings extended forever in flight, tears frozen on their face from an event in a backstory long forgotten

the drawings made of others characters, in folders on a forgotten friend's computer, forever visiting, immortalized in drawings of silly inside jokes and gift-giving between amateurly-drawn colorful animals

a colorful cast, lined up in a row in a half-finished microsoft paint bitmap–smiling faces filled only most-of-the-way with the fill bucket tool. the comic text says "happy birthday!!!" the drawing was never finished, the gift was never sent. its they've been their birthday for 13 years in their eyes and they've never stopped smiling

colors paint-bucket-filled into downloaded free bases–folders of which still sit unused, waiting to spark new ideas, in a long-forgotten folder. most of them the well-known default colors until their artist realized how to use the custom color button

forever in a looping animation, only a third of the way finished–the artist wanted to animate like they saw online, those four frames probably took them weeks of frustration before the project was dropped–but their character is still running, for the rest of time, at 3 frames per second

[cr4yolapc]

the story behind this drawing, btw

[tpwrtrmnky]

Analyzing the politics of a work that's meant to be apolitical is actually a really interesting exercise because it asks you to critically examine what the creator considers to be "political" in the first place. Which ideas are just How Things Are, and which ones are Political, and how is that influenced by the creator's beliefs?

[takashi0]

Usually this just ends up with you looking like a moron btw

[tpwrtrmnky]

Angrily lashing out at the suggestion that it's possible to do basic media analysis was foundational to the ragebait ecosystem of the 2010s, from which we got basically the entire culture of modern far right politics, btw.

[iteh3xael]

I genuinely believe myself and others are being so sincere and literal when we say TOUCH GRASS

[tpwrtrmnky]

I went outside and got an education, that's where I learned that you can obtain knowledge and insight through analytical methods, then noticed that some people who sit on the internet yelling at strangers get really mad about that constantly.

[pensivegladiola]

Don’t make me point to the Omar Sakar poem

[penumbralwoods]

every time someone realizes they dont have to pick between being a boy or a girl an angel gets its wings btw. and also extremely loud cheering can be heard in the distance from me specifically

[penumbralwoods]

btw if you've ever wondered why i make posts like this and get really obnoxious about nonbinary positivity. this is why

and for all of yall that are still figuring it out or aren't getting the support you deserve:
