robin breaks into steve’s room to ask for advice on nancy, bc steve wasn’t answering his phone and she’s freaking out. she opens the door paying no mind to steve’s tired grumbling as he sits up and rubs his eyes. robin sits down on the bed immediately talking a mile a minute her hands moving wildly. steve responds when she asks for his advice, prompting eddie to pop up from his comfy position under the covers just so he can argue with steve about how that is terrible advice, stevie. robin nearly has a heart attack from the shock of eddie suddenly appearing in steve’s bed seemingly out of no where, and that’s also how she learns the two of them are dating

druid leader: we noticed you never call your servant by his true name

arthur, slowly like he's speaking to a toddler: you mean merlin? pretty sure merlin only has one true name and that name is merlin

merlin, sweating profusely: maybe we should just go?

druid leader: no, i meant his true name

druid leader: emrys

arthur: look, i know what you meant, i've heard it more than enough from you people. you don't get to say it and neither do i and honestly how dare you

merlin, looking like he's about to faint: what

arthur: so no, i won't call merlin by his deadname–

i think it’s difficult to understand the complexities of misa and light’s relationship unless you yourself have been through a toxic relationship.

my ex-girlfriend cornered me into a one-sided relationship and forced me to stay with her despite me telling her several times that i could not love her (i am aroace). but she put me into a position where i had to agree and never let me leave her, she would keep coming back and threatened me with the fact that she could destroy my social life at any moment and turn my circle of friends against me, due to her being at the top of our school’s social ladder and me being at the bottom. it took nearly a year for me to get out due to her constant gaslighting, and i managed to piss her off enough to make HER break it off.

the point of this is NOT to say that these experiences are equal to what happened between misa and light. i am not defending either of them. the point is that light did not “corrupt” misa. misa is not your cute little girlboss who can do no wrong. misa and rem still FORCED light into a relationship with misa despite him repeatedly saying “no,” or “i can’t be your boyfriend,” and so many people ignore that.

misa still did bad things. so did light. the situations they were BOTH under were likely extremely traumatizing. i don’t hate misa at all, nor do i hate light. i just think many people in this fandom are overlooking the fact that rem and misa still forced light’s hand.

how does it feel knowing that your thought process is the exact same as a cursed Mickey Mouse meme

"love is just a chemical reaction" hate to break it to you bud but you are just one messy gooey sack of chemicals and chemical processes, that is how physical reality works

classic vines but they’ve been reshot hollywood style. a man stands over a cliff on a stormy night, his coat billowing in the heavy wind. rain-drenched, hair whipping about his chiseled features, he turns to the camera and–in a voice hoarse with betrayal–gasps: i can’t believe you’ve done this

Jedi neutrality in TPM comes not at all from not taking sides. They get there and pick a side in under five minutes. They are 100% team Naboo. No, their neutrality, and their cultural moral authority, comes from not having a stake in this fight. They're not mixed up in the trade federation. They don't have personal ties with the Naboo. They don't stand to benefit or to lose from the success of either party. They can just show up and say, hey, just decided you guys suck. And no one can accuse them of being secretly married to the Naboo queen or having offshore investments in the Lake country, or whatever completely hypothetical thing a person might have going on that would hypothetically compromise that neutrality

So I came up with this new sims legacy challenge, i call it Wild apple tree. It consists of 10 generation and each gen has specifics to complete before moving forward. I haven't come up with the storyline between each generation just yet but other then that I think it's done. I feel i might have gotten a bit carried away and if i add more to each generation it might be a little to much but at the same time I feel it has room for improvement and new ideas so if anyone have any input please feel free to comment and let me know what you think.

(I'm hoping all the ideas I came up with are feasible and can be done I am still playing thru it)

Really annoying how many ppl's framework for religion is (white) Christianity = bad // other religions = good.

Like, we have historical examples of ~The Big Five~ all being used to put together genocidal ideologies let's not push for a framework that suggests that's impossible.
