Having an especially icky day today so I figured I might share something that helps me sometimes.
When I'm supre upset and crying like rn I like to pretend I'm better and look through pinterest images that are like daily affirmations but litterally aren't true about me and pretend they are true for a few minutes.
Does it get me to stop crying? Not really, but it makes me feel not as bad for crying.
Which is prolly stupid but I don't care rn.
hey-i found another thing that's really interesting.
so like, june is wrong, 8ut more right than ever. and jade is right 8ut more wrong than ever. it is recommended listening that you put on free8ird while reading this, as it is what was listened to on loop while writing this. here i'll even give you a youtu8e link. https://youtu.be/0LwcvjNJTuM ok so like, even though i picked (YOU ARE COMING) first time around, (YOU ARE NOT) is so f8cking interesting. i've read and reread it multiple times solely for the fun of it. i'm a sucker for drama.
let's narrow down this medit8tion to the two characters in question. jade and june. they're the most interesting in this exchange o8viously. jade is staunchly against going to the meat timeline to let the kids go to sgrur8, anti-meat. while june is jazzed a8out the idea of a fun adventure. pro-meat.
8ut there's a hidden feature of this convers8tion. can this adventure 8e good at all. no and yes. reflected 8y jade and june respectively.
jade thinks this adventure's gonna suck. at 8est it'll 8e a fun lil' romp that'll just dump them out 8ack where they started with no real change made. at worst it's gonna 8e damaging, traumatizing, and still spit them 8ack out with the pro8lems they had when they went into it.
and june thinks the adventure is where they all thrive. that domestic life is the worst possi8le thing and it sucks and they kill people if are left to their own devices. "too much freedom is a 8ad thing."
let's start with where jade is right. jade is easily right 8ecause yeah no, june is kind of a directionless dimwit who doesn't really know what she wants. she does not have the tools or language to even define what she wants, much less achieve it. anything she sets her mind to falls apart rapidly. a light flowing 8reeze of a person.
a stark contrast to the rest of the candy cast, who i would say know exactly what they want. jane; genocide. karkat; not genocide. rose; suicide. roxy; keep the peace no matter the cost which includes the cost of a genocide. goals they may not 8e a8le to perfectly vocalize 8ut are a8le to follow and achieve on earth c.
this gets into why june is kind of wrong, 8ut mostly right without realizing it. cuz she's a dummy who can't vocalize what she's thinking properly and will carry these pro8lems with her no matter where she goes. 8UT!
june NEEDS this adventure. she needs it 8ad. she has had 20 f8cking years in domestic life, no change has 8een made. the metaphorical second she chose domestic life, she was shackled into the role of father and hus8and. then divorced hus8and. if she was going to transition in a domestic life, she would've done it already.
domestic life shackles june eg8ert. the home itself is what makes her stuck. it traps her. this LIFE traps her woefully. the circumstances and everyone's expect8tions on her, literally the sh8t jade's talking a8out where she has to "suck it up for the sake of others" is choking the life out of her soul.
do you remem8er the closest june's ever gotten to cracking her egg? cuz i remem8er it clearly.
IT WAS WHEN SHE WAS ON A FUNNY LITTLE GUIDED ADVENTURE WITH VRISKA! where like 80% of our understanding and reading of june comes from. where her NAME comes from!
june is a 8reath player for corns sake! adventure is where she 8elongs. changes and danger are her nature. as an heir she is the literal em8odiment, the inheritor of freedom itself. domestic life is choking her out. f8cking off with vriska on another adventure is enrichment. it's the only hope she has of 8ecoming something 8etter. like she tells jade, she is literally TRYING to change. leaving is her attempt to change. the environment of sgrur8 and the meat timeline incites change.
and we reach why jade is so, so f8cking wrong. with one of the most f8cked lines in the entire upd8, like a knife to my gut and heart it's 8een stuck there.
june's own happiness is not really a factor for her. june's own 8etterment is not a factor to her. and she couches it in language implying it's for the sake of the children. 8ut it's-it's not for the children. the children were never made for their own sake.
vrissy is the poster child of this fact. she was taken in the hopes of 8asically doing vriska 8ut right so she doesn't turn out like vriska (failure, vrissy literally helped vriska realize she can still 8e vriska without all the trauma and catholic guilt hanging over her. it's very o8vious vrissy is a serket like all the rest. you can't take the vriska out of the serket.)
yiffy as karkat seems eager to imply, is the result of jade 8asically making a f8cking ship kid with rose as the ena8ler to this fantasy 8ecause dave didn't actually want a kid.
and she never actually deny's this was a factor for her. and then she is the most a8solute desper8 one to avoid sgrur8 for the sake of her child 8eing "normal" while yiffy as an individual, o8viously doesn't like her mom. was kept a f8cking secret from the world, pro8a8ly never socialize well, and has dog features. i don't think yiffy is the real factor here. i think jade is projecting her desires onto yiffy. i think jade desper8tly wants to vicariously live her life through her daughter. i think
"she'll never 8e normal" stung further than just insulting her daughter. that's just opinion and specul8tion on my part though, 8ased on how she f8cking named her daughter yiffy so she could fantasize/roleplay having a kid with dave.
8UT HEY! let's talk a8out something i can say with 888% certainty!
she's a massive hypocrite. calling out june for not knowing what she wants, when what, jade's plan to unf8ck the timeline is to just stay and never change? cuz it's not a8out changing for the 8etter? it's a8out the children? when these f8ckers haven't even 8een here a century and already have ruined the lives of so many people, including their own!
jade alone has f8cked her daughter up immensely, ena8led the destruction of kanaya and rose's marriage, dave and karkat were misera8le 8eing with her. dave even so much to the point he yeeted himself out of the universe the old fashioned way. and jade herself isn't even happy. to say changing herself, everyone's self, is unimportant, an adult move or not, is just plain dum8.
cuz without changing yourself, it doesn't matter if you go on an adventure or stay in your house all day. you'll end up with the same person who made those mistakes in the first place. and candy is not a land of change.
roxy never transitioned. karkat is still trying to 8e a warhero instead of just living a calm life and going home LIKE HE WANTED TO!. rose is the same self destructive self h8ing girl she was on the meteor. june is the same man she entered the world as. jane ended up the same 8atterwitch she was groomed into 8eing at a young age. why do you think all the ghosts ended up in there?! the 8IGGEST creatures of unchanging nature. NOTHING CAN GET 8ETTER IN A WORLD WHERE NOTHING CAN CHANGE! IT'S JUST A MATTER OF SPINNING OUR WHEELS UNTIL WE DIE! AND IS THAT THE RIGHT OPTION!? IS THAT THE RESPONSI8LE, CORRECT THING TO DO!?
well, like a certain someone once said. i know my lim8s. people who wish to wallow in unchanging misery will do so regardless of what anyone else says or does. the real question is. are they going to drag down the ones who want to change with them?
june may 8e immature, and ungrown up. 8ut that makes her more a8le to change than anyone.
thank you for coming to another one of my vristalks, heed my words or know woes for the rest of your days. let's see if i can pop out another 8anger for the masses!
yoooo!!! its working noww :]
hi! so i made an account and started adding my characters onto there, but when i got to one, i accidentally messed up and didn't mark that it was mine and when i went to fix that, it suddenly just wouldn't let me even pull up art fight online at all??? I'm not sure what todo about that.
the page for art fight is the only thing that wont load at all soo idk if its just my computer messing up, or if I just screwed myself over
my thing is niftyUranium
ME FR
Yoo could I get a parasite of stagnancy :>?(the theif+primce and void+light?)
here ya go!!!
My theory for how Rose and Dirk's game is going to go is that they'll each have 4 kids of their respective species, but then somehow the candy kids will connect to their session, but before Dirk can intervene and wipe them out, Terezi stops him and says that she's joining the game, with the candy kids as her champions, thus putting them under her protection - and she'd be able to tell if he tries to control them, too, meaning he'd have to truly leave them alone.
okay i know this is by all accounts a short/reel but i spent so long on it so im also posting it here :)
forgor to say but void ppl are also usually seen as independant and easy to understand and then people COMPLETELY MISUNDERSTAND THEMLIKEDUDE
Im bored so I am once again talking about stuff I barely understand\d and Im too scared to talk to the hs discord cause it feels like others make me uncomfy cause their fixed morals and actual ability to understand and explain things better than me lmao.
woah okay sooo im gonna start with aspect cause that's easier for me to understand and explain why i think it's litterally me.
so the only ways Ive seen void explained is "confusion, unaware, subjectivity" and vague stuff like that whish uh, yeah it's right ig, both light and void are based around their own understanding of things. but it feels like others focus too much on that. void players tend to be confident in what they do understand(or at least I am), even if it may not be a lot or very useful.
cannon examples being: equius with robots, roxy with actually quite a bit(others relationships, the window things, ect.) uhh cant remember any void players lmfao,
also another thing people tend to ignore is that they are hard to understand/ make sense of. once again with equius just overall being veiwed as "oh no, its THAT guy" and roxy just cannonically being imposible to explain/read by dirk. also he never even asked??? so that's part of the issue people dont just ask, most void players would just answer if people asked. like dude??? we dont fucking hide how we feel, its just that others dont even like, put in effort to know. alsowhile im kinda on a tangent about how people dont ask, void players are kinda like "dont ask, dont tell." (haha refference to homophobia) unless they see it as important or relavant. I alos just dont have a lot of oppinions on things that do actually affect me, but that is prolly jsut more of a me thing than void as a whole.
(btw, I am going to take a quick break to go pee before I get into my class, and I will not reread this till after I post it, so I may think of things I wanna change or add, which means i will prolly just be reblogging it everytime i think of somethign knew lmfao)
(my laptop is overheating slightly, i only have three tabs open)
okay quick thing on why Im not a witch and why I think online quizes keep forcing that apon me with some random ass aspect (THE ASPECT CHANGES ALMOST EVERY TIME :SOB: )
witches tend to not understand that they're doing something wrong/ they just see that what they're doing MIGHT help them, so they do it. they over all do their best to do what they think makes sense without like trying to explain why it makes sense ig(?) witches also dont seem to have many strong oppinions on others outside of every one of their friends is the best, or every one else is either unimportant and does not matter enough to even CONSIDER taking into account when coming up with a possibly confusing plan. while thief's tend to get ahead of themselves they do understand that a complicated plan can go wrong WAY more than a simple one, arvhams razor or whatever.
as explained in the silly brochure thingy that i have spent too much time rereading (lnked on the masterlist thing for classpecting posts in pinned thingy) thief's are also working on higher stakes. focused on an end goal instead of the specifics of what leads us there. which unfortunately leads us to completely ignoring why and who we might've hurt to get us to the end goal. also in the brochure thing it mentioned how thief's work against what they think is how society works (?) (meenah wanting to live on a moon cause of reasons I cant remember, and vriska just in general viewing people as just boring or unimportant) for a thief, theirs them and then theirs everyone else with zero overlap. when a thief get's to close to being like their perception of everyone else they force themselves out of it so it becomes a weird cycle of "woah these people are great" and "these people are making me soft, uhoh gotta fix that"
when in relation to my lunar sway, I'm a prospitian. (woagh) which yikes black and white thinking, and I think i fucking need a good reason for doing things. or at least a reason I think is good. lmao
all together I tend to get uncomfy with people actually understanding and being set on things ESSPECIALLY MORALS. i overall view most people as more mature than me. as in they understand what they view as bad. I like philosophy and the open ended questions that come with it. I'm not really attached to any specific religion or ideas. I do like absurdism on solipsism though. subjectivity is a huge thing for me, it's just that others usually are super strict on what they see as real or true. honestly my only rules/morals for myself are dont hurt others unless it's necessary, and anything is okay as long as you feel good about it and arent ACTUALLY hurting others (as in fuck around and find out, BUT DO NOT ACTUALLY TOUCH OR INTERACT WITH PEOPLE WHO TOUCH REAL KIDS OR ANIMALS YOU SICKF UCK)
anyways uh yeah im a theif of void, i am making all of thisup based on a game thing that didnt even explain it properly in the og webcomic.
I love you (/??) bye
happy ptide
@crosswired you owe me 50 bucks
Im redoing the post thingy about MY classpect so heres prince of stagnancy and also a bit about my normal classpect (you can skip this if you want cause this is me specific and ill be speaking about my experience as a prince.)
--- princes destroy an aspect through an aspect or by destroying an aspect---
okay so sorry it's been a hot second since ive really posted on here. im exhausted so we're doing a personal post!!! even though I doubt yall are too interested in it.
so if were going by the combined classpecting, Id say i destroy light through destroying void. (basically its like confusing people via giving them too much info ig???)
I often catch myself kinda ruining my future. or like I cant really imagine myself having a real future. (Light sometimes has to do with destiny.)
uhm I cant really stand being focused on, but I also cant really imagine not having any form of attention on me.
funny thing, in the classpect brochure thing, they use Bojack Horseman as an example of the prospit prince of light (thats what I am) which I find a bit funny, but yeah. It's kinda accurate. I basically do anything for some kinda attention ,just to do a bunch of things that only get people to not really like me, or make fun of me. I dont usually think things through, and when I do what may be better for me, it doesnt take very long for me to give that up to make myself feel better.
I often wear things that draw attention towards me, like my fox ears, and my tail, mini skirts, thigh highs, all that stuff. but i feel trapped when I do get the attention it makes me uncomfortable. I'll cut myself for attention, but get stressed out when my friends or family point it out.
As for my prospitian stuff, I have an idea of when I view as good. I dont know exactly if I fit that critearia, and what I view as good may not even be what's really good. I think im doing something right.
powers uh. honestly just the obvious, stealing someones luck, litteral use of light or maybe temporarilly blinding someone, and
my land would be somehting like LOMAI (land of mirrors and ink) i think. for other princes of light, id think something that makes you come face to face with youre aspect, or something where you think it's not there, but it constantly comes back and haunts you.
Strife specibus might be something that requires close combat. i think something sharp, like maybe a exacto knife or a box cutter lmao. maybe something stolen or "borrowed"
Classpecting ask: what do you conceptualize as the core of Light? It's information/truth, AND narrative importantance, AND luck. That seems like too many unrelated things.
That's a good question! I used to struggle with this one as well actually.
Light, in a word, is meaning. It is the idea of a greater importance, something that is perceived as desirable - or "fortunate".
Void, naturally, is the opposite, meaninglessness. The idea that nothing is inherently more important than anything else, and there is no "greater meaning" to everything.
If Void is nothingness, Light is everythingness. Information, essentially, is a way to grow your understanding of, and better perceive, everything around you.
Lightbound in particular are often drawn to classpecting and other theories of personality, because having a grand theory to categorize all people is very satisfying to them.
There is some confusion between the idea of "truth" in regards to Light and Rage, but there is a difference. Light cares about truth in the sense of what information is important, essential and relevant, while Rage cares about truth in the sense of cold, hard, sober reality.
I hope that makes sense ^^;
