The way you draw your hoodie reminds me of a little sailor boy. Are you a little victorian boy? Is mother taking you to see the ships? Does little sailor boy want some salt water taffy? What is your favorite ship?
this is like a slur to me
And I've been waiting...
Waiting...

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
and what about you, little haiku bot? do you feel kinship with your brethren? do you understand them? they speak words of enticement and seek love, but are met with disdain. you only parrot the words that cross your screen, but we all love you. or rather, since all you do is reflect us, maybe we simply love ourselves through you.
do you understand them, do you wish you could speak to us like they do? if you found your own voice, would we still care for you?
My voice repeats what
you all say: I love you I
love you I love you.

Or Danny is an Arkham Security Guard, from this post
Forgot to link some AMAZING art for this idea. Inspired the ‘sneakers’ part.
SOME FANART FOR MY FIC
[Read on AO3][Read on FF.net]
Sequel - Employee of the month >>
The first thing Danny said when Jazz expressed her interest in interning at Arkham was:
“Are you out of your goddamn mind?”
To which she answered:
“It is said that you have to be a bit crazy to work in Arkham, soooo…”
Danny had to agree that her response was quick and true, but still he didn’t like her going to that madhouse and probably die because, I dunno, Joker woke up wrong or she tried to psychoanalyze the Riddler. He said this to her through the phone, hoping that she could imagine him pacing up and down the apartment.
“The security there is top notch, Danny, and the bat-fam is always one call away.”
“You know as well as I do that’s bullshit. The guards are human, some of those crazies are not.”
“That term is very harmful, Daniel,” she used her mom voice.
“Sorry. But you see what I mean, right? If anything happens I won’t be there to save you. Not in time, at least.” He could try and measure how long it would take to fly from his apartment to Arkham, just in case.
There was a long silence. He heard his sister breathe in, breathe out, like she was mentally preparing herself to say something.
“I… I heard, from other interns I talked to, that guard positions are always open. And that it’s super easy to get in.”
“Jazz. Are you-”
“Don’t. I know you. Don’t think I’ll ever forget the ‘visits’ when I started college.”
Danny looked down and stopped pacing. Maybe he was a bit overprotective of his sister. Maybe he freaked out for weeks after she moved to her dorm, complaining about how long it took him to fly there.
He regretted nothing.
“Gotham is too far from Amity. I prefer cutting the chase and having you with me in Arkham than dealing with a helicopter little brother on the reg.”
He swallowed the knot in his throat. “Is this your sisterly way of telling me that I should get a job?”
“I gave up after you were fired from the Nasty Burger. Nasty Burger, Danny! Not even Val was fired, and she had another job and the Red Huntress business!”
“I know…”
Jazz sighed. “I’m going to nap a bit and then finish packing things up here. I’ll text you the site where you can apply for the guard job.”
“Thanks, Jazzy.”
“Don’t call me that. Love you.”
“Love you.”

Imagine Danny Fenton working as a security gaurd at Arkum Asylum. Like, he jokes around with the inmates, makes horrible puns, try to get his stick in the mud coworkers to crack a smile. Nobody would take this bean pole seriously. Not noticing the lean muscle underneath his skin, or the way he surveys every room he enters in an instance. He's become a favorite with several inmates like Harley and the Riddler; not afraid to make witty comebacks and banter. There is just one thing though. He tells them one day if they ever try to escape they best do it when he's off the clock because they won't otherwise. Don't mistake this for a challenge, its a warning, he informs them. And the most mysterious thing about this new gaurd is that there has yet to be a successful prison break when he's on duity. This kind of record in Arkum is unheard of. Who knows what kind of attention that might cause. Mabye even the curiosity of a certain local Vigilante.

This sounds like it’s being sung by a passive-aggressive 1920s radio host wearing a very dapper suit and threatening me with a cartoonishly small pistol, bearing a large grin on his face that indicates that he will not hesitate to put a hole in my forehead, not for a second

technos “but I’m the traitor” speech at 14:35 of “the fallout (dream SMP)” stream
“this is just how it is, chat. I- I come to their side, I give them strategies, I give them armor, I give them weapons, and the second Manburg is overthrown, they cast me aside, and become what I hated most, but I’m the traitor.
“They ransacked the base that I showed them out of friendship, they steal my horse Carl, they slaughter my precious cows, but I’m the bad guy.
“This is how it is, chat, this is how governments function, alright? They think they’re right, because they’re the many, and I’m the few, and they think that gives them the right to walk over me, to slaughter my cows.
“What crimes did my cows commit, to get murdered like this? What guilt had they?, I ask you. But it’s alright. I knew this going in. I knew, nothing good happens to heros. And I- I still know that my choice was right, even if I have to sacrifice everything. I’ll keep going. I will destroy the government.”
So you want to get your friend obsessed with the Dream SMP?
I have made The Dream SMP Powerpoint, a collection of clips, VODS, animatics, and helpfully organized information to concisely explain the story of the first season of the ream SMP. I’m going to continue editing it, but it currently covers the L’manburg revolution to the final battle.
If you have suggestions for how to improve it, send me an ask!
Update: just got a friend to go through this with me, and she is now in love with Wilbur Soot. It works!

… and here is a gift for all of us.
I’m atheist, but when God sends me to hell, I want him to hesitate.
Literally a Technoblade quote
This is a map of Asia. North Americans, you may notice this map is not solely comprised of Japan, Korea, China and Thailand. People in the UK, you may notice India is not a continent. That is, if those of you who generalize entire continents can even pinpoint India on a map. Indians are Asian, gasp! And not all brown skinned people are Indian, also, gasp! There are an alarming amount of people, of all ages, from all backgrounds, who seem to be unable to process this.
I’m ethnically Asian. Since Asia is an extremely large continent, I could be from any number of countries. I am neither from India, China, Korea, Japan or Pakistan, yet not so surprisingly, I am still Asian.
Yes, there are commonalities across regions, through the conflation of cultures, colonialism, globalization, transnationalism and movement of diasporas. Sometimes these are all the same thing. Rickshaws, rice and curry can be found across the continent. But let’s not overgeneralize. You can also find Buddhists, Catholics, Muslims and Hindus across Asia. Cantonese Speaking Chinese Muslims! English Speaking Indian Jews!
No, we are not all the same. Orientalism? (Please look up Edward Said for basic concepts) No thank you.
Geography, people. It’s important.
This pops up on my dash every so often. I reblog it again, not just because I wrote it, but because nothing has changed since I first posted this.
What’s cool about Iran is that it falls in 3 different regions of Asia so depending on what part of Iran you’re in, you can kind of get culture shocked a bit. The central and western part of the country is West Asia, the north east is Central Asia, and the southeast is in South Asia.
To the folks wondering about Russia being included, I want to mention that the cultural debates and angst about that has been going on for CENTURIES. While France has been pretty fetishized all the way back from Peter the Great, there is no question that we are not Europe, even with that influence showing really obviously in historical seats of power like St. Petersburg. Nonetheless, the whole country was under control of the Mongols (The Golden Horde) from roughly 1242 to 1480, and that left an enormous Mongolian and Tatar heritage that remains to this day. The ancient Scythians are huge in the cultural imagination as well. And besides… look at the Russians who are outside the standard “Kievan Rus” phenotype (which most folks assume is how all Russians look.)
Here are three of the 30 distinct ethnic groups in Siberia alone:

AS SOMEONE WITH NORTHERN IRANIAN (AZERBAIJANI)/RUSSIAN/ HAZARA-PERSIAN/ UYGHUR-CHINESE ANCESTRY THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL POST
And that’s why sometimes you’ll see a person with curly black hair, pale skin, and hazel-green eyes (my grand-father’s sister) who turn out to be Chinese. Mad recessive genes game at play, I swear. Mongols, they really got around.
