We weren't mean enough to conservatives (even the so-called "good ones") and the magats after January 6. I say we start with a collective cultural side-eye.

I do agree that there wasn’t enough accountability for January 6th (not by a long shot) but I will admit? I’m not sure what the answer is for us interacting with conservatives in our everyday lives. Sometimes I want to say “fuck them all. Disown. Block. Forget. Restraining order. The works.” Sometimes I want to say “they’re in a cult, we have to make it easier for them to leave.” But I admit I don’t know what the actual answer is, or if there even is one.

I spent a long time just staring at this ask, deciding how to respond. I finally decided on “I don’t know” and I’m sorry that’s anticlimactic.

I hope you don’t get mad at more anticlimactic answers in the next 1,295 days.

Alutegra:

No it’s not healthy. Yes that’s the point. Still healthier than any possible Alucard ship... tho idek why we care about that. Either ship it or don’t, I don’t get the moralizing.

Interpretations that are just like “they are 200% in love and it’s your usual cut and paste romance” are boring. They also overlook both of their characterizations.

Interpretations that are like “nah it’s just professional/platonic. there’s absolutely NOTHING going on there” are also overlooking a lot of characterization and Alucard legit trying to dirty talk to her during the Rio call lmaooo

Vampire!Integra:

It’s def my personal reading of the ending scenes in both canon and Gonzo. That being said I also don’t think it’s a good ending for her. She’s going to have a toooon of philosophical issues to grapple with and I high key do not think she’d be able to just keep on keeping on at Hellsing without some major upheaval. Either she has to run, or she has to essentially seize Hellsing and break all ties with the government and the round table.

Bob’s Burgers, for the ask thingie, maybe?

Oh my god yes amazing

One Piece and LuffyxNami?

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Favorite character: Luffy

Least Favorite character: Akainu

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): LuffyxNami, ZoroxRobin, UsoppxKaya, ChopperxCarrot, and SanjixVivi.

Character I find most attractive: Luffy. He’s both cute and sexy at the same time. XD

Character I would marry: Law (sorry Law fans)

Character I would be best friends with: Nami. She’s sassy and I like that. ^^

A random thought: I hope Wano doesn’t end TOO quickly.

An unpopular opinion: The way Oda draws the girls is really sexist (it could be a popular opinion, though).

My canon OTP: Luffy/Nami

Non-canon OTP: Uhh...I do not know. ^^;

Most badass character: Zoro.

Pairing I am not a fan of: SaNami. I know that a lot of people like the ship, but I just can’t see the appeal.

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): I hate to say it, but...Luffy after the timeskip. I feel like Oda really should have had him talk to his crew about what happened after Ace died and stuff. Instead, he just chooses to just focus on the adventure aspect of the story. I mean...losing a loved one? That’s not something you get over after just 2 years. Not to mention all the mental, emotional, and physical trauma he suffered during the war.

Favourite friendship: Luffy and Zoro. It’s also tied with Luffy and Usopp.

002 | send me a ship and I will tell you:

when or if I started shipping it: After rewatching the show back in 2010, I kinda fell in love with this pairing. It got stronger after watching Strong World, Film Z, and Film Gold.

my thoughts: “...She is his QUEEN.”

What makes me happy about them: Just seeing the trust they have in each other. Besides, Luffy would literally be lost without Nami since she is the navigator.

What makes me sad about them: The fact that there aren’t as many moments between them anymore.

Things done in fanfic that annoys me: Nami still acting like a bitch with Luffy.

Things I look for in fanfic: Them cuddling together and just being all affectionate. I also look for a few lemons here and there, and I might even write one myself, once in a blue moon.

My kinks: Luffy showing his musculature to Nami who thinks it’s absolutely HOT.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: I guess if they’re not the endgame, I can only see Nami being single and she’s okay with that. Luffy is, too, because he wants someone to have that freedom.

My happily ever after for them: Them sailing the seas together as King and Queen, along with their crew. ^^

I had a ten-game White Sox ticket package last year that my mom gave me for Christmas. The pandemic ruined it. AND ONE OF THE GAMES WAS AGAINST THE CUBS! T_T

21, 28, 30, 37

(21 least favorite character to write)

Plain characters like Hojo. No offence to him but it’s just...you know exactly what he’s going to say and do, he’s a polite, nice, kind of ditsy boy but boring to write XD poor guy.

(28 worst review you ever got)

I won’t screenshot it but I can think of two. One was for Terracotta Teeth from a person who was completely disgusted with it despite it being tagged as a Dark Romance. Another was for SiS before it was finished at around chapter 15. They found Kagome unlikable and stagnant who did nothing to affect the plot (not getting that the whole point of SiS was that Kagome had no control over the time jumps, all she could do was adapt to situations) 

(30 hardest part of writing)

Editing. I can rabbit on for hours but the same words crop up a lot and I have to watch my sentence structures or they go on without any punchy pauses for breath (which can bore readers, so I gotta keep on top of that XD)

(37 canon or AU?)

I’d usually say canon but most of the fics I have lined up next are AU so I guess AU for now? XD

As thrilled as I am that Biden likely puts an end to St Bernard of Burlington tonight, it's still upsetting remembering that America is still so sexist it won't vote for a woman president.

Same. But, that’s something WE can change!! WE can vote for a woman and make it happen. My state has become the first state to have a latina governor be succeeded by a latina governor. Great things are possible! 

We just gotta make sure we put Kamala Harris or another good democrat into the Oval Office before the GOP puts Nikki Haley or Susana Martinez into the Oval Office X_X

Your brutally honest opinion on z/utara!

Oh, ouch, you really went for the gut with this one, didn’t ya? Lol.

I do and don’t understand this ship at the same time. I was even one of the first people to mention the possibility of Zu//tara back in book one during the episode where Katara stole the waterbending scroll and was captured by Zuko. (I distinctly remember posting on a forum about how I could foretell members of the fandom were going to ship them based on their brief moments of physical contact/dark enemies type of relationship.)

Anyway, I hate to say it but as much as I’m mostly neutral on the ship itself, the fandom has mostly ruined it for me (and this is coming from someone who was never really that invested in the online ATLA fandom). Fans of this ship either grossly misconstrued the interactions between Katara and her canon romantic interest or else acted willfully ignorant of it, both of which I have no patience for tbh because I’ve seen enough of that in my other fandoms. I mean, at least I have the decency to understand authorial intent even if I choose to invest in something opposing it. 

Very rarely someone will explain why they don’t ship Kataang in a sensible, contextual manner despite understanding the signs and intention behind its progression in the canon (I’ve only personally seen it once). While I at am least given perspective at that point, I still disagree with them about their reasoning.

Anyway, in the end, Zu//tara in and of itself is not a bad ship. Based on how much development took place between Zuko and Katara in the second half of book three, I can grasp the attractiveness it has to a potential shipper but it wasn’t enough to deter me from a still-just-as-good-imo mutual ship with 2.5 seasons worth of ongoing evidence and development like Kataang.
