STOP SPEEDRUNNING MY TOWER YOU INGRATES

I love him so much but sometimes he can be so fucking dumb

Huai Sang: Who is the both of us? Never heard of it.

Still one of my favorite posts on tumblr honestly

honestly tho that scene in the incredibles where mr. incredible sees the names of all the old super heroes that used to be his friends / that he knew from Back in the Day and how every one of them has been killed by syndrome is such a chilling scene for so many reasons 

like for one, everyone he knew is dead at this point and has been killed on the same island he’s at now and two, its heartbreaking bc that means that almost every hero wanted to try out being a hero again despite the laws against it and wanted to try and help someone out and relive their glory days, only to be straight up murdered like fuck that scene is just so fuckin intense

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

Weird how people say Nie MingJue bullied Jin GuangYao when their late-game interactions were basically just Jin GuangYao being all, “I know Koi Tower said we would execute the mass murderer Xue Yang so that he can’t kill more innocent people, but keeping him alive in jail so my dad and I can continue to use his specialized skill sets in murder and demonic cultivation is totally the same thing as executing him, Da-Ge.”

And Nie MingJue’s response to that was a passionate, “NO, no it is NOT.”

Like Jin GuangYao wasn’t some hapless victim during these exchanges?? (And actually the victim between them has always been Nie MingJue so jot that down.) He willingly swore brotherhood with Nie MingJue too, knowing what Nie MingJue was like with Nie HuaiSang, knowing Nie MingJue was going to bear down on him with all that same Big-Brother-might to make Jin GuangYao get his act together.

“Where is your saber, HuaiSang?”

“Where are your braincells, Jin GuangYao??”

Calling it bullying just underlines the fact that Jin GuangYao only intended to use his new found family for personal gain and it was never out of any emotional care or support. His Sworn Brothers truly become nothing more than stepping stones. If Jin GuangYao was ever actually honest about what was happening to and around him at Koi Tower, it might have looked less like a one-sided argument with Nie MingJue and more like actual conversation. Even Lan XiChen’s support of Jin GuangYao was based on one-sided sympathetic presumptions rather than Jin GuangYao actually talking to him. Nie MingJue was demanding answers for all the BS and Jin GuangYao hemmed and hawed and acted spineless, which only made Nie MingJue angry because Nie MingJue knew Jin GuangYao was a capable and intelligent person who can get shit done.

If it was bullying, Nie MingJue wouldn’t have had to tell Jin GuangYao never to approach him again. If it was bullying, Jin GuangYao wouldn’t have needed to go to the Unclean Realm with a peace offering. If it was bullying, Nie MingJue wouldn’t have had to give Jin GuangYao a third chance at forgiveness when Jin GuangYao promised to have Xue Yang’s head in two months.

Because in the end, Jin GuangYao stopped trying to pretend to be pitiful and spineless in front of Nie MingJue because Nie MingJue knew him better than that. So Jin GuangYao had to own up to being capable and intelligent and admit, “I do, in fact, have braincells. You are absolutely right, Da-Ge, and I brought them this time.”

Except Jin GuangYao lied, he left his braincells at home, because once again he only brought the Collection of Turmoil which he used to kill Nie MingJue because Nie MingJue was always the victim of Jin GuangYao’s abuse and it was never the other way around!

Ah yes mingjue and the boys™

It’s the squad!

the BEAUTIFUL nie mingjue

puppy want a treat?

puppy want a fucking break from it all

some of y'all need to learn how to accept hospitality. stop assuming people are only offering to look after you out of twisted obligation that they don't actually want to do. when you assume that, you are often denying someone the opportunity to genuinely show a friend or stranger love. even if you don't really care about what they're offering, it's respectful of their desire to be kind to accept it anyways.

i had a bunch of girls i've never met over for a women's group. every single one of them denied my offer to make them tea (despite already making myself a mug anyways), get them water, a scone, etc.

i can tell when people refuse to let me be a good host because they "don't want to be a bother". like no!! please be a bother!!! i want to serve you and make you comfortable in my home!

not to be like "we live in a society" but really do live in a modern culture than emphasizes individualism to the point where people will reflexively deny any help or kindness from others for fear of treading on their independence. newsflash: dependence on each other is what makes a community. next time someone offers you kindness, accept it instead of making excuses for why you don't need it. otherwise you've robbed both yourself of being loved and someone else from showing love.

I CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT PLACE LASLOW GOT IN LOL

FUCKIN NICE JOB, BRO

Couldn’t you just pause it
