reread witch hat kitchen last night and it is killing me how the main story has All The Horrors meanwhile in witch hat kitchen THIS is qifrey’s biggest problem

there's this annoying tweet going around on twitter dunking on "cringe Tumblr Prose" i.e. overly flowery or trying-too-hard-to-sound-literary posts and whatnot and god it's sparked such a miserable conversation because all im thinking while going through people pointing and laughing at all these posts and pieces of writing is. lord, yall dont know how to have fun or be genuine. i'd rather read a thousand cringe but earnest pieces of writing than read constantly irreverent uber-ironic pieces done out of fear of the social media panopticon of shame. like so what if it's goofy and pretentious-sounding at times. it's fun. do you guys remember when you did things for fun?

i know i kept saying that once the anime was out i wanted everybody to sexualize qifrey to hell and back, just slut him up to the greatest degree but

i had no idea it would start with the STUDIO THEMSELVES AS THEY WERE ANIMATING HIM

they made qifrey look so good they were animating with carnal desire running through their veins

addendum to that previous post i reblogged, but i work in advertising, with a huge chunk of my work being social media content in particular, and this has made me fluent in several digital advertising accents

root sentence: your cute cat deserves high-quality cat food!

IG advertising accent: your boycat needs the perfect boy kibble!

FB advertising accent: your purr-fect fur-iend only deserves the best!

TikTok advertising accent: POV*: youre a spoiled cat

(*key that the term POV is used objectively incorrectly in the video)

tumblr blogger accent**, referential whimsy dialect***: you FEED miette subpar ingredience?? JAIL. JAIL FOR ONE THOUSAND YEARS.

(**key that there is no advertising accent for tumblr, because advertising on tumblr is the most nonsensical gibberish in the world and no big client in their right mind would want to seriously invest in advertising on this platform)

(***key that there are several tumblr dialects honestly. off the top of my head i can identify: referential whimsy, cynical coolness panopticon, swinging at a hornet's nest, substack article media analysis, absolute word salad delivered with the confidence of a tedtalk speaker, etc. it gets even more complex if we go by eras of tumblr, because who could forget the "NO. FUCK THIS. FUCK YOU. SIT YOUR ASS DOWN BECAUSE [explanation of a thing that is done in a wholly aggressive manner influenced by a superficial understanding of karkat vantas' speech patterns whether OP is aware of it or not]" of the early 2010s. i say this all with genuine love in my heart)

im sure people much smarter and more perceptive than me definitely have more substantial observations and opinions about marriagetoxin's first ep but one thing i do wanna say is that i love how every frame of kinosaki has him animated as the Most Beautiful Human Alive meanwhile gero is just like. A Guy. sure hes badass in the action scenes but aside from that hes just animated as. A Guy. A Dude. Regular Looking To The Nth Degree. absolutely nailed it, no notes.
