in the original take, mike was supposed to hurl a chair at freddy in an act of self defense
Oh shit I'm 2 years old thats woah what thats so swag
something that distubrs me a lot is how the Author of Lolita
(Vladimir Nabokov)
Has stated that he never wanted the front cover of his book to feature a girl/little girl
Although there are so many versions with girls on the covers
Something about that makes me really uncomfortable tbh :(
This one in particular, im not sure why but just thef act its clearly a little girls legs, it disturbs me :/
Ive watched so many videos on Lolita and i really wanna read it :3
I dont care if i have to wait months to retrive this book, i dont think i'll ever want a book cover that disrespects the authors wishes :(
(ALSO on this book cover, the Vanity Fair describes it as a 'convincing love story'.....If you think Lolita is a LOVE story, maybe go re-read it a couple times. Go watch an analysis video, read an analysis, I don't understand how this book has gotten romanticized and so badly mistaken)
Guess who got punched in the nose today?! ( I hate my school sm)
In the early 2000s, a college student named Hajime Isayama was working in a café when suddenly someone grabbed him by the collar violently. It was this, “the fear of meeting a person I can't communicate with,” that inspired a brilliant idea of writing what now would be the best anime of the decade. Attack on Titan is a dark fantasy manga (Japanese comic) that got turned into an anime. The anime gained a lot of popularity very rapidly and for a good reason. The show hurt me, it broke me in the most beautiful way, every episode left me with so many unanswered questions, every episode left a big impact on me as a person, it changed my sense of morality, the way I view life, it truly took me the whole new perspective.
Now theirs a lot of reason A.O.T is good but some of the main ones are:
The main storyline:
The anime/manga is set in a world where humanity lives peacefully inside cities surrounded by three enormous worshiped walls that have been built for a century, these walls protect them from a gigantic man eating creatures called titans, one day unexpectedly a titan larger than the 3rd outer wall (wall Maria) breaks it causing chaos destruction and fear leaving other titans to enter, titans start devouring humans at high rates as the main character Eren Jagear and his friends try to find his mother so they can enter the second wall and seek coverage but it’s too late, he watches as his own mother gets eaten alive, her shoe drooping symbolizing her leaving her son behind, in that very moment Eren swears that he’ll take revenge and slaughter all titans and give humanity hope for freedom since he’s always looked at the walls as if they are cages blocking him from the outer world ( it’s pretty ironic since the walls are what used to protect them ) then the real story begins following him entering the scouts regiment building relationships with other characters, and very unexpected plots that will change the whole course of the story.
The well written characters:
Attack on titan by far has the best written characters. each character has their own unique personality, different interest, different point of views, a motive and a dream, weaknesses and strengths, yet they all are relatable and have one thing in common; they all are trying to survive or save their loved ones at least. We always see them learning and improving from each other, even balancing each other. For example Armin lacks physical strength yet he has a good head on his shoulder while Eren is the opposite, he tends to let his emotions and humanity take over him. And in one scene Eren was refusing to kill Annie even if it was self defense thinking it was inhumane as he heard those words “To surpass monsters, you must be willing to abandon your humanity.” – Armin Alert. The story is also shown from every character point of view and that left us wondering if maybe Eren is in the wrong, maybe he’s the bad guy . Yet in the same time he’s the hero? The story is the same yet the point of views are changed and the audience are left to think for themselves, and the change of him from being the oppressed to being the oppressor was brilliant. The whole story was a big example of ‘’I can’t blame you nor you can blame me’’.
As Armin once said “A good person? Well… I don’t really like that term. Because to me, it just seems to mean someone who’s good for you. And I don’t think there’s any one person who’s good for everyone.”
Diversity and awareness:
growing up it was hard for me to relate to characters, there wasn’t any diversity whatsoever. Male characters were superior while female characters were never taken seriously, not mention they always had to live up to the white beauty standards that were limiting to so many children. In attack on titan they empowered all genders, personalities, bodies, races , and they did it in a proper way to show awareness for example every female character wasn’t sexualized nor objectified like most shows do and were written as proper humans with feeling and motives they were also respected an seen as equals with the male characters sometimes even stronger , as for appearance we see both woman and men with different unique features , a lot of the characters have a hooked/roman noses, the strongest character is also the shortest, Onyankopon is a dark-skinned man with black hair styled in a short crew cut and when someone asked him why his skin was dark showing ignores he simply answered by saying: because our creator thought it would be interesting if there was a mix of people, we got created cause we were wanted. The anime also explores other issues like parental abuse, in one seen a character was screaming calling out to her father apologizing while getting eaten by a titan and screaming this was a sign of trauma caused by her father’s abuse in the past. In other scenes we see parents manipulating their children or guilt tripping them into doing what they want for example historia and annie, Another thing the show raised awareness towards governmental corruption the show showed people abusing their authority multiple times and in one seen a we see a soldier with access to governmental equipment selling them illegally. The government also had a history of lying to the citizens and hurting those who were brave enough speak the truth (Erwin’s father was killed) In season 2 the government falsely accused the 104 cadets by committing crimes against the crown and they sent people to kill them illegally just because they were discovering the truth. The list goes on and on of the governments greediness.
The dark themes and mixed emotions:
“The world is merciless, and it's also very beautiful.”- Mikasa. as I said before the show showed some serious problems and the dark realistic sides the world in general and with these situations we are bound to get a lot of emotions like regret , feeling used, hopelessness, feeling stuck, losing touch with humanity, losing sight of you goals , betrayal, and more yet in the same time the show showed that in darkness there’s always some light , you see people stuck in a conflict find that they’re actually very similar to each other and becoming lovers, we see Armin achieving his long dream of wanting to see the ocean in with his own eyes , we see characters improving to the best version of themselves . The anime ended with our lovable main character dying and getting buried under the same tree he would sit under with the person he loved the most before the war, which was truly a bittersweet ending.
Attack on titian was very bittersweet and an emotional roller-coaster and it hurt me in the most beautiful way possible, it changed my morals, my views on life, it helped me learn valuable lessons. The anime is a masterpiece and I recommend it for everyone Possible.
When the hyperfixations hits and you wake up 17 hours later to a half finished drawing
the year was Two Thousand and twenty-four. I took a puff of my Electronic-Cigarette, inhaling the vapours. my mobile terminal buzzed in my pocket, a flat slab of microchips and glossy touchscreen. I ignored it....... probably another Electronic-Mail

yk ive seen lots of jokes abt how kit would describe ty as beautiful, (mentally) write flippin poetry about how he looks, assist in necromancy for him, and yet still think theyre just good friends. which i love, its hilarious, BUT.
im p sure he Knows™. like, he vaguely refers to his feelings not being fully platonic throughout qoaad. most notably, when he thinks abt the reasons why he no longer thinks abt being parabatai w ty, and at the end hes like, "maybe it was something else, but he pushed away from the thought"
which, yk. what else, kit? 👀 what else? 👀👀 kinda sus yk 👀👀 i mean whats the primary reason ppl cant b parabatai 👀👀 one u dont want to think abt 👀👀 what the smth else, kit? 👀👀👀
PLZ GO LISTEN 2 THEM THEIR SO GOOD, THEIR LIKE MIDWEST EMO PUNK PLZ YALL
I personally think it’d taste like chocolate-chip cookie dough with the salt in the mixture being from tears
Basically, it’d taste like whatever food you’d eat straight out of the container while crying and watching you favorite show after a breakup or smth
P: now get in the water.

not the kinda guy to stay inside the guidelines
Quick question what are Flux abilities? I keep thinking it’s atomic manipulation or matter manipulation but I could be wrong.
Also your writing is immaculate and stupendous. The angst brings me physical pain everytime I read something of yours but then I get happy but I still feel petty about the hurt he’s caused along the way😤
I'm including you both in this answer so I don't post this twice on accident.
SO 👏 the reason so many seemed to be confused about Flux's powers is simple. I don't fucking know what they are either. As I stated many times when I first started making my Logan stuff, I'm not good at superheroes.
When I started making the X-Man persona I thought, I want someone who is really powerful, but not to the point that it's shoving it down your throat. I wanted cool powers but not "oh, she can beat Jean and Charles and Magneto and she's basically a goddess". Fanfic like that is icky to me.
That's why she has "power" meltdowns, where she loses control because that keeps her humble. Her powers are essentially matter/atom manipulation. I'm not a scientist and I felt like putting exactly one google search into this so- essentially, she can manipulate anything that contains atoms/matter which is everything.
None of this is going to make sense ohmygod
In my mind, she mainly focuses her powers on shifting things between the three states, liquid, gaseous, and solid forms. Her powers are just manipulating the world around her, (I recommend googling matter manipulation superheroes bc it's not as uncommon as I thought)
She has power meltdowns because she has to constantly be in control of her powers. She has to make sure in a fit of anger she doesn't accidentally kill herself or those around her. She's constantly in a state of keeping herself in check and making sure she's not - without realizing it - hurting those around her. That's why she has those cuffs in some fics that dampen her powers because it's so volatile and she can't control them.
HOPE THIS MADE SENSE
as i've said before, i've got not fucking clue what I'm doing
I-I JUST MET DEE BRADLEY BAKER AND
AND I
IM IN MY SITH PUREBLOOD COSTUME HE SAID IT WAS COOL AND
AND WAHHHH😭😭😭😭
