Alrighty, Doug Davis rant my friends but most for @webbyghost

This is mostly a little dip into why he said what he said about wanting to bang a prostitute 😭

Well we all know Doug observes and tries to pick up on what everyone else says and thinks to fit in, this includes saying things he may or may not believe himself.

We’re all familiar with his “I blame rap music” line, which I really don’t think he believes this I think he’s parroting things he’s seen others say, and rap and hiphop is a POC built genre which he why he specified a not white prostitute, and on theme of rap is sex so in his head he’s trying to piece together something he thinks someone else to say. Yes, its very stereotyped but people he’s around, like Wade who I think he would attempt to mimic because he’s popular in Dougs eyes, also stereotype. They stereotype Doug himself, students stereotype, he’s only putting out what he’s picking up

Everything he does circles back to the need to fit in, which is a theme his peers ignore. He’s genuinely doing his best to be like those around him even if it means saying things he doesn’t really mean or believe in

If someone noticed he was eating a snack in the workroom and made comment about it being weird he would stop eating that snack. If someone told him there was a popular song he would listen to it and analyze why it may be popular then try and make conversation about it even if its music he doesn’t even like. If Wade told him a pornstar was cool in passing or something Doug would check for himself just to try and talk to Wade about it.

He’s parroting and mirroring what he sees around him. He’s determined and everyone ignore his efforts

New Series/Discussion!

Now that Kinnporsche is over I have decided I want to start a new series/topic discussion. My friends and I are going to be collaborating on what I have labeled "Chaotic Overanalzing" where we will overanalyze everything in a show including the characters. We're starting with Kinnporsche and then will more than likely go back and do shows like Cutie Pie, SOTUS, and others.

These two lovely people are @femitalian and @findthebluesky

I am not 100% positive when the first post will be posted, but I do know who we are starting with. Look out for the first one!

hi there! loving your sebmey rp sooo much! i just wanna kno like is sebby drawn to meys soul and how she expresses herself like her rightious anger and stuff from the last part?? is it like how he enjoys ciels emotions and how it shapes his soul like that or is his attraction to her totally not the same? i mean he is still a demon and shes a human soo

Welp, me and @grelleswife discussed this, to set things straight! And the final answer is.... Yes, the demon known as Sebastian is attracted to Mey Rin’s soul, and though we understand what your getting at with the comparison, there are major differences. The best way to explain is that:

A demon sees a human soul as 1. A meal. 2. A profile/biography of that person. 3. A piece of art in some way (like the comparisons to art medias can vary probably since there is many different forms of “art).

It all depends on the demon’s relationship with said human. The very first option is usually applied to a human that has summoned said demon, and the demon and human struck a deal, thus forming a contract that’ll end with the demon eating the human’s soul.

The second option I believe can be applied to by-standards around the demon that are not the meal, nor interesting enough to be the 3rd option, art. In the manga, this applies to many many characters Sebastian has interacted with so far, likely starting with the uniquely gifted but still not completely up-to-snuff servants.

The third is clearly, in this RP specifically for humans like Mey Rin, that the demon clearly does not see as food, and even if she is still a human being, her soul feels like a piece of art that the demon wishes to keep safe and keep it the way it is. OBVIOUSLY in Mey’s case, there’s MORE since she is more than ART, but that is like the core of her demon’s interest. If they were totally not in a relationship at all, he would just view her soul as a lovely piece of art, likely. ALSO.. I believe he thinks the same of a unique human like Agni, even if they aren’t in love in this like in other RPs!

ALSO, one more thing... sometimes these options can be combined. Specifically a demon like Sebastian who is very old a has seen millions of souls and he comes across one like specifically his young master’s... So o!ciel’s soul is not only his MEAL, BUT also a piece of art to him... in a sense, Sebastian is likely taking credit for this piece of art too, as if it started off as a nice piece, Sebastian bought it, and now he is shaping the piece of art to be even BETTER, in a way that HE likes it, and ONLY him....

... And then he’s gonna eat it. 🤷

WELP I hope that ... does your question justice...? I feel like I trailed off, but hopefully not 😂😂😂 Thanks for the question!!

Analyzing Toy Story 4...

I just got back from typing this....lol ESSAY in a Youtube comment of all places...but I’m proud of it so I decided to post it here. xD

I enjoyed this movie a lot and think it's more clever and insightful than what others are giving it credit for. But it shouldn't be called "Toy Story 4", it should have been called "Toy Character Study" because that is EXACTLY what it is... I enjoy tf out of character studies and analyzing them to hell and back, so if you're curious, do read on. YES, THERE ARE HEAVY SPOILERS.

Basically, this movie succeeded at what Ralph Breaks the Internet failed to do. This is my understanding of the feelings Woody experiences and the reasons for every single one of his actions.

................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Teaching how "to let go" to a child audience by separating two main characters and doing it WELL. In this case, Woody and Buzz instead of Ralph and Vanellope. While the latter insisted on a big no-no (CHARACTER REGRESSION), something you do NOT do unless you want to make your character into a villain, TS4 handles it subtly and intelligently because Pixar is more like that....um most of the time lol)

So, firstly we are shown that Woody and Bo were very heart-broken when they parted. "Why doesn't Woody show this attachment in the third movie?" you might be asking. While, yes, he was shown to be a little sad and then it's never spoken of again. But Woody was still very focused on "being Andy's best friend" and the leader of the others. So his life still had purpose. Bonnie found him and he did let go of Andy, PHYSICALLY, but it's hinted all throughout this entire film (4) that his emotional attachment to Andy is as strong as ever and he is subconsciously trying to replace Andy with Bonnie.

But Bonnie does not have the same attachment to Woody as Andy had to Woody; she is much younger and children are really fickle. This may sound sexist but I honestly feel it's true: "Girls bond tighter with toys of girls". I am speaking out of personal experience as a woman. Bonnie is revealed to be more attached to Jessie "because she's a girl like her". This isn't retconning Bonnie's fondness of Woody in the third movie, as you remember, he was the FIRST of Andy's toys to be introduced to her. Then Andy gives her Jessie later and she grew to prefer her over Woody. Woody is losing one of his purposes: "make Bonnie happy because that's what Andy trusted him to do" but he is also losing his position as "Leader" as well. Bonnie's room already had a flock of toys before he got there. Everyone seems to be fitting in great but he's an outsider. He longs for the past where he had everyone's trust and respect and Andy's affection. Along with this trip down memory lane, his feelings for Bo are resurfacing.

Then he sees that Bonnie is feeling sad and frightened at the idea of school and leaving her room. A toy's purpose, along with making a child happy is "to give them security" so he takes this to heart and comes along to make sure she's okay. Bonnie then creates Forkie, whom she grows obsessed with because "your first childhood creation is extremely dear to you" (artist perspective). In a way, it's your own child, something you've made with your own hands. Woody is delighted to be Forkie's baby-sitter, because as long as Bonnie has Forkie, she will be happy; thus Woody IS capable of making Bonnie happy, indirectly through Forkie. And he becomes completely OBSESSED with this new "purpose" because it is his only mission he has and he is clinging to it as tightly as he can. But it still feels hollow because he's still not getting the affection he longs for; so he's thinking about his old first love again.

After reuniting with her, even though she has changed, Bo Peep is still the one he loves (well it seems even more so now) He meets new toys and has adventures with them, (during which we are taught that he's taking his obsession of making Bonnie happy to a very bad level and he still feels "lost") yet he helps a toy (Gabby) connect with a child again; this reflects the situation from the first movie where he got Buzz to accept he was a toy to make Andy happy. Gabby was previously rejected by the child she longed for. This reflects Bonnie's absence of affection for Woody and Woody's eyes are opened to "Wow...I can be wrong sometimes?"

But Woody is loyal so he thinks he needs to return to Bonnie, even though that's not what he TRULY wants anymore; what he now wants to stay with the only woman he has ever loved and rescue lost toys and help them bond with children like he did with Gabby. We see that he and Bo are experiencing the exact same heartbreak from the beginning of the movie. Buzz however has known Woody so well that he can see right through him and convinces Woody to finally go after his OWN happiness in a tear-jerking farewell.

Character Analysis: Ellie Williams– Rage, Resilience, and the Cost of Survival

Ellie Williams, the deuteragonist of The Last of Us and primary protagonist of The Last of Us Part II, is a landmark character in the world of narrative gaming. From the moment she is introduced, Ellie subverts the traditional expectations of a post-apocalyptic teenage girl. She is witty, foul-mouthed, independent, and surprisingly mature. But more than that, she is layered—a mosaic of trauma,…

fundy

/roleplay

oh boy

Fundy.

We all know Fundy has daddy issues and trust issues, we all would have if we had Wilbur as a father, tbh.

I absolutely loved Fundy in the election arc! He wanted to show his father that he could exist without him because before all of this, Wilbur was Fundy’s everything.

And Fundy wanted to show his own independence from Wilbur

Fundy burning down the flag was one of the most awesome moments in the entire smp and is still used in nearly every animatic for good reasons!

He said “fuck you dad!” Something which no one has really ever told Wilbur.

Fast forward and we look at the spy’s diary.

The absolute mockery he has received from his father in Pogtopia made me want to cry! He has worked so hard, not only to emancipate himself from Wilbur but then realising that Schlatt wasn’t any better and joining his father again. This was something not everyone is capable of! Realising that you are in the wrong.

Hell, even Quackity, the vice president, has had a warmer welcome from Wilbur than Fundy. Fundy felt left alone and after Techno destroyed L’Manberg, everything he has ever cared for, Fundy became empty.

When becoming part of the parliament of New L’Manberg, I don’t know if you have noticed but Fundy became the “yes man”. He kept nodding to everything, no matter who said what, Fundy kept agreeing.

He always has been such a smart and cunning guy but I feel like he is only a shell of who he once was.

Fundy needs a father figure and I think Eret is a good choice. Eret knows what he went through because Eret has done the same. Betrayed his loved ones. Eret can teach Fundy to love himself again because, damn someone show this Fox some love.

/roleplay For me, one of the most fascinating things about Dream is how level-headed he is. He knows what he wants. He always see the big picture. That is why he doesn't understand other people in their own personal selfish wants. Because Dream could easily sacrifice that, just like Spirit. Spirit is dead but Sapnap and George is still alive so that is more important. That is how he seems so inhuman at times. Because in the end, he knows the value of things and people around him for him.

/roleplay

That's a general problem for everyone on this server!

No one really wanted anyone to die or to hurt.

I believe everyone wants peace and love and friendship but people make mistakes and instead of forgetting they want revenge because they have been hurt.

It's okay not to forgive everyone but violence will lead to more violence and war.

For peace someone or a group of people have to give up. They need to let go of their feelings for revenge. The one party has to apologize or something like that and the other party has to accept the apology.

Without that there will always be the feeling of superiority and inferiority.

Technoblade has to let go of the fact that he was used and thrown away, then blamed for betraying them.

Tommy has to let go of his discs.

Dream has to let go of his need to control everything and of trying to think he can decide what's best for everyone.

And so on and so on

They have to talk and try to understand each other. Everyone is in the right and in the wrong the same time, depending from the perspective you are look at it.
