guys i’m banking on the fact that 431 isn’t canon PLEASE. i think both izuku and ochakos character development throughout the series would be so much better spent on not having them get together. Not even from a bkdk standpoint, but from an uraraka fanatic.. let the girl develop PLEASE.. anyway that’s my rant 🤗🤗
Polyamory vs. Cheating
I want to preface this by saying that I’ve never been in a polyamorous relationship, nor am I polyamorous myself, and I’m fully open to constructive criticism, feedback, and discussion underneath this post with others who agree or disagree with what my opinion on this matter is. I’m always willing to listen and learn from people who may be more educated than me in regards to the topic at hand, and I’d love to hear an inside perspective on polyamory itself. Cheating, however, I will not tolerate. It’s also not something I’ve personally experienced, but I don’t have to have endured it in the past in order to know that it’s a horrible thing to do to someone.
I was recently watching an analysis on Loren and Faith’s relationship from 90 Day Fiance, and I got reminded of something that’s been a point of contention in the polyamorous community for as long as it’s been around, and even more so now that it’s a less stigmatized practice. (Of course, I’m not saying there’s no stigma at all, because that’s what I’m here to talk about, I’m just saying it’s a more open topic than it would have been, say, fifty years ago.) In their relationship, Loren was consistently cheating on Faith the entire time without explicitly telling her so or discussing it with her beforehand, then attempted to claim that he did tell her, she just didn’t understand him. Him “telling her” consisted of him messaging her that he was “staying” at someone else’s place by the way, his words not mine. In no way did he allude to a sexual relationship beyond implying that sleeping over is always indicative of sex. So, very obviously, this is cheating, yet Loren treats it as if it’s not a big deal because he, quote, “doesn’t believe in monogamy”. First of all, that’s a wild thing to say lacking context - second off, even if you don’t believe in it, you have to acknowledge that it’s something a lot of people do adhere to regardless of what you think of it. He should have discussed this with Faith on a deeper level, yet he didn’t even mention it to her in the duration of their six month relationship, in which he was literally sleeping with and talking to other people with the intention of sleeping with them. And the ENTIRE time he stays with her in the Philippines, he acts like she’s blowing it out of proportion, going so far as to mentioning in the talking head interview that she was probably gonna tell her family about it - which is a completely reasonable thing to do - and he has the absolute audacity to say it doesn’t paint him in a good light. He was worrying about his image and her family’s approval of him being in a relationship with her instead of the fact that he legitimately cheated on her and hurt her.
This brings me to my main point, which is that there is a subgroup of people who identify as polyamorous, yet don’t tell the person they’re dating that fact, or that they’re seeing other people at the same time. Their partner is completely oblivious to this, which, on principle, is cheating, whether or not they know that person is polyamorous to begin with. Because even if that person is polyamorous, a conversation needs to be had where boundaries and expectations in the relationship are discussed before becoming romantically involved. Maybe the partner, in this situation, is aware of the person’s interest or connection with polyamory, but doesn’t know that they’re already in other ongoing relationships before and during the length of time in which they’re dating. Not letting them know that is not being honest and clear with them from the start, which is something they have the right to be upset about. Even in polyamorous relationships, boundaries and communication are important, as cheating can still happen within that space. Imagine, for instance, three people are all dating, and the third person starts dating someone outside of their throuple. They tell the second person about this, but not the first; that is cheating if it’s been discussed beforehand that they must tell each other before seeking out and/or establishing a new relationship. Even if it’s not discussed, it can still lead to harm and a loss of trust between those three people. There are so many nuances to polyamory, seeing as how much attention it’s getting nowadays beyond culture and religion - yet, common decency is still the same across the board. Some, not all, seem to like victim blaming when it comes to cheating in polyamorous relationships because they believe that it should be predicted and less of a big deal than it is in monogamy. I understand some people are uncomfortable of the idea of being in that kind of relationship themselves and how it may seem hard to them considering things like jealousy and possessiveness, but what I don’t see is why that should make those people so hostile and judgmental for those who can make it work in a healthy manner. I’m aware that a portion of people who are outright cheaters try to use polyamory as a scapegoat or an excuse for their actions, but those individuals shouldn’t come to represent the community as a whole, since it’s like every other community in which there are differences all around. Monogamists have divides within their community as well, and there are just as many toxic monogamist relationships as there are polyamorous, so the only reason polyamorists catch more flak is because it’s been historically treated as a terrible practice as a whole. I’m not saying that there weren’t unfair polygamous relationships forced onto people instead of chosen willingly - hell, they still exist today and they need to be recognized as such - but we’ve also been gradually learning and growing as a society. Good things can come out of the bad, and that doesn’t make the bad any less bad, it just makes the good more impressive when it does happen.
I just felt like ranting today, I don’t know. I also don’t know how to end this… like and subscribe ig.. I say as NO ONE’S gonna see this
Had a cool idea and I need thoughts:
So like I was thinking about writing fanfics but then I’m like what do I write about? So I’m brainstorming and hear me out- a Shadow/Amy legally blonde AU!!
Crazy right? But then I’m like it could kinda make sense on a base level. I mean you got Amy as Elle, Shadow as Emmett, Sonic as Warner- it could work!
Still not entirely sure who to put for other characters since I literally just came up with this but we could go like Rouge as Paulette (and then knuckles could be the mailman wait that’s actually so funny). Maybe put Blaze as Vivian or maybe Sally (although I have very little knowledge of her character).
No clue what to do about professor Callahan, maybe robotnik? But that feels weird considering the plot so maybe just make him an oc?? Or of course we could switch up the plot but idk yet…
Then I also thought about putting silver or the chaotix in there somewhere? And of course tails idk where to put him. And where would omega fit if he does at all? And is there going to be a dynamic between shadow and rouge? And what about age ups/gaps?? And as far as legally blonde goes im gonna need someone to be Brooke Wyndham and the delta nu girls.
Also to be clear I’m basing this off the musical version of legally blonde bc it is better- and I mean who doesn’t love Laura Bell Bundy and Christian Borle like cmon…
See this is why I’m making a post I need help bc I really want to make this an au but like idk where to even start so please give me ur thoughts!
Like is this a good idea or am I just tripping?
Edit: GUYS SHES LITERALLY PINK LIKE COME ON GUYS PLEASE HEAR ME OUT BRO-
AI rant ???
Obviously the age we are alive and able to live in now is amazing, we have so much access to information and connection to others, but anything concerning or connected to the humanities (social, language, etc.) is something that as a society is slowly being removed from the hands of people and being replaced by AI.
As someone who does art (in school and out) it’s annoying to always have to prove that the art you made is yours and not AI. Or the fact that my art teacher last semester used AI to give the class feedback on some of our projects, like what the freak, as a traditional artist is this not something you should be against????
My social studies teacher was more concerned about us using it than the art teacher, and my ELA teacher (who also teaches social studies) brings up how some AI sites are censoring a lot more than others, in connection to certain events in countries like China (Tiananem Square) were when you ask about the event nothing about it comes up, whatsoever.
And the amount of AI being used to post news articles, or using the generative AI on google to get references and information, just put in some work and find the information yourself it will be worth it in the end because you’ll have a deeper understanding of the topic.
What’s worse (it’s not it’s just annoying) is it being used for art and books like wtf bro, those are something used as a creative outlet if you can’t do it yourself have someone do it with you, learn to do it, or don’t do it at all.
This is what started the rant ?? I guess
unpopular opinion

If Zoro ever defeats Mihawk…
Ps - Mihawk is depicted as Zoro’s father figure in this text
(Not proofread)
Non-canon but…
I think when Zoro kills Mihawk in their final duel, it would be a state where he finally achieves his dream that he worked on so hard for him to be happy, yet to feel a little empty at the same time. I’d have to agree that if Zoro does kill Mihawk, he’d achieve his dream, fulfill his promise to Kuina, and put Mihawk at rest, which gives a happy ending for him, honor for his late best friend, and rest for Mihawk since he’s grown tired of life.
Though, in the lens of how I view Zoro and Mihawk’s relationship, I truly believe, from my heart of hearts, that Mihawk was somehow a parental figure to Zoro. Other viewers of One Piece might not see the vision or see the vision. In some people’s eyes, Mihawk was only Zoro’s mentor and rival, which is of course true, I am not against it, but how I view them might be a different story.
Zoro was already orphaned, he had no parental figures since both of his biological parents died when he was still very young, meaning he probably does not have much memory of them and wasn’t guided in life as much because of that. He had no parental guidance in life.
Now, during the timeskip, Mihawk played a crucial role in developing Zoro’s swordsmanship. He has provided and taken Zoro under his care to train him to defeat him all because he saw that Zoro’s actions were no longer for himself, but for his captain, that “he found a greater cause rather than his own ambition”. Surely, he isn’t the type of father figure that would coddle up Zoro and be soft around him since he plays mentor, he is supposed to make him reach a better version of himself. Though, I see the potential and why some may think he is a father figure to Zoro.
A parental figure is someone who gives guidance, care, support, etc. that resembles an absent parent’s role. Mihawk gives these to Zoro for the two years in the timeskip, he is a role model to Zoro and he teaches and guides Zoro to defeat him. Zoro, an orphan, being taken care of and taught by the world’s greatest swordsman himself. Living in his castle. Eating his food. Under his care. For two years. For once, other than the strawhats, Zoro has been taken care of, under none other than Mihawk. The castle is a training ground yet a house to him. Where he eats, showers(? Considering Mihawk’s toilet…), and sleeps, he is doing it in the same grounds where Mihawk is.
Do you think that maybe, if Zoro had killed his mentor, the one who saved his own seat of the worlds greatest swordsman for Zoro to sit on next, the one who cooked, gave him a house to live on for the next two years when he was separated from his crew, that he wouldn’t be a little sad and empty? Mihawk wouldn’t exactly be the best father figure unlike some others, but he would definitely be a memorable one to Zoro, all because the worlds greatest decided to be his mentor and care for him slightly like a father would.
So when Zoro finally sees Mihawk’s head roll before him, I would like to think that he would feel free and happy he achieved his goal, and a little empty, where he finally acknowledges that in a way, he did see him as a mentor-father type of person in his life.
This is overall subjective and what if statements which isn’t well supported, but I just wanted to share what I thought:,,)
Credits to its only blood by MissingN000 on ao3 (heartbreaking fic), it helped me write this.
"Sleeping like that is bad for you! Stop it!"
I hate these kinds of articles, we know Captain obvious. Unless you have a magical cure for my insomnia, that is not happening. I'd much rather have a fucked up back and neck rather than having a sad fucked up brain from getting no sleep.
Chuds on twitter getting mad about Joe Biden stepping down because it "betrays the democratic voters" is a prime example of how reactionary the right is.
Republicans have been degrading, and systematically trying to prevent democrats from voting for YEARS, and now they suddenly care about the rights of democrat voters? I call BS
This is a prime example of moving the goal post. They always have to be mad about something. They can't just let him step down peacefully (as they and everyone else have been pleading him to), it has to be twisted into some moral failing on him and the democrats.
Capitalism has ruined our basic humanity
The fact that the large majority of people in America look at a homeless person and think "ew, get this trash out of my sight" rather than empathizing, wanting to help that person, and reflecting on the systematic flaws that allow this to happen is a sign that your civilization has fundamentally failed at being civil, and is more comparable to savagery.
Always remember that anyone who owns little to no capital is your ally, not your enemy, and thinking so means you've bought into capitalist propaganda like a sheep.
A small rant
I hate how right-wingers try to excuse spreading hateful or ignorant ideas as "just a joke" or "I'm just asking questions". Like they somehow think that jokes or questions cannot be rhetorical.
It's like some people think that ideas just don't affect the real world in any tangible form. Like they are just having a purely theoretical conversation that effects nobody at all.
People on the right need to realize that rhetoric is very capable of inspiring violence. Saying shit like "trans people are groomers" is the kind of shit that gets trans people killed.
And public figures who advocate hateful rhetoric will always try to distance themselves from the consequences of their words, saying shit like "I never said I condone violence", even when violence is the natural logical conclusion of their words. Yall cannot act like implying that Jews run the world is not a call to action to commit violence against them, that is pure bullshit.
Conspiracy theory mfs can be some of the most annoying people on planet earth.
The second you point out any flaw in their logic, it's always "your giving into the propaganda man". Or, if you ever call them a insane dumbass, they will always say "wow, my ideas are making you mad, it must be because you know I'm right" thinking they are witty.
I'm not afraid of conspiracies because I don't want to hear the truth, I am afraid of conspiracy theories because they are very much capable of spreading dangerous misinformation as fact and harming people in the process.
I am willing to listen to any ideas, but you can't just present your far-out speculation based on cherrypicked evidence and get mad when people have the nerve to question your ideas.
Anyways, that's my rant. Just decided to blow off some steam because I got into an argument with some right-wingers on reddit who were going off about the "Jewish elite".
A common argument that I hear from conservatives is that "people of the past were not so sensitive like people of today"
Mf people in 1950's America threw a tantrum because someone of a different skin color wanted to drink at the same fountain as them. Don't give me this bs about how people back then "weren't sensitive".
"we need more ptsd representation in media!!!" and then they complain about atsushi's flashbacks
everytime i see someone compare chuuya and dazai's relationship to odasaku and dazai's relationship i wanna commit hate crimes
I love Rick Riordan but there’s just a few issues with how Rick writes that can makes his books get repetitive
Pretty much all of the gods are unserious which can be funny at first but it gets tiring and repetitive when that’s all that happens there’s a few exceptions but still.
Like for example Odin in MCGA I personally feel like the books would have been better if he was a more serious character, and that vibe fits the god better than the unserious character who loves to make PowerPoints that Rick wrote him as.
Another thing that gets repetitive is that all the ships have the same dynamic as PercaBeths one that makes fun of the other and one that makes jokes that dynamic worked great for them but less so for other characters.
Like Leo for example, he always makes jokes to hide his trauma his coping mechanism is being funny and while Calypso is great she’s not the kind of person he needs. Leo needs someone who’s kinder to him and can see past his facade and help him when he needs it, not someone who makes fun of him.
There’s a few other details but I’ll stop here. And again I love Ricks books but after reading so many it is starting to feel repetitive especially since I’m now on the third book of MCGA and the way Magnus acts and a few of the others too so closely resembles Percy’s book feels unoriginal and that can make it harder for me to read since it’s kinda like grabbing mostly the same characters but shoving them into a new story with new names and faces.
Anyways what do you think?
If you're someone who sells something with essential/herbal oils in it, and the only thing that is letting onto the fact that you're selling something with essential/herbal oils in it is a little lable of "includes other essential/herbal oils" WITHOUT SAYING WHICH ONES
I hate you <3
And by that, i mean like, on the front of the box, where everyone looks. Like, i assume you have to put all the oils you use in the ingredient list of course, but like, who really reads those? (I say this disregarding the people who to check due to medical issues or preferences and the people who go to the restroom without their phone and decide to read the nearest object's labels because those are the only two times/circumstances i can see people actually reading ingredient lists)
Because i assume that i am NOT the only person who just goes "oh, this looks cool. Loving the art on it. Ill get it and see how badly it fucks up my skin/body!"
Why is almost all of the bnha transgender content on AO3 just smut? I’m on my period and I just want to curl up in bed and read cute fanfiction I can relate to so I can distract myself from the dysphoria :(
I wish I could draw/write more :( I know you’re meant to balance everything out but I love creating things so much and see people with full coloured comics and animations and I know I could do that if I had the time
Mostly I’m grateful for anyone who enjoys my stuff :) I’ve decided I want to be a creative director, an author or a disability worker. Current dream is to make a fictional book series covering characters with different disabilities to spread awareness and love
I just… I wanna make!!!! I wanna make more
sometimes i wonder if people think about me in the same ways that i think about them. Like.. do people ever think about what im doing? Or how im doing?? Do they ever wonder if im awake or not? Am I ever on anyone’s mind? Platonic or not.
I feel like i think about people way more than i should. And sometimes i think about everyone all at once (however that works . . .)
:(
I hate that they have to deal with all of this crap. I don’t understand why people can’t seem to, or rather, don’t WANT to understand the concept of privacy and respect. It’s not that hard to understand, at all.
People need to widen their perspective and open their eyes. They need to stop living in their own world and stop thinking that’s it’s okay to do these sorts of thing to idols. They need to think rationally and logically about their actions for these instances to stop occurring.
It’s sad that along with BTS’ growing popularity, these instances won’t lessen unless us as a fandom and BigHit really do something about it. Even though it is hard to regulate these kinds of things.
At least they take care of it to the best of their ability as idols.
Anyways, I’m happy that Jungkook is happy! He seemed to have enjoyed the VLive a lot~ 💜
Suffering from burnout while working on an essay about burnout is the type of dramatic irony I want in my life.
The jealousy of other people's skills, the weight of insurmountable expectations, the fear of not achieving and the limitless procrastination keeps me from doing anything.
The fact there's someone out there working hours after midnight and into the lazy afternoons. The fact there's people who run in the rain to reach a destination. The fact there's people who have someone they think of when they sleep or someone that makes them feel alive. The fact there's someone who works harder than you ever could. The fact there's someone who is way better at what you do without any extra effort. The fact.....you will never be what you want to be in life.
I wish I didn't care about anything. To live a life with no destinations, a path where I don't know to what it is leading to. I want to be a no thoughts; head empty kind of person. I want to have no interests in life or so many interests that the failure of a particular thing doesn't bother me, that I can move on freely from one thing to other without regrets. A life of no assumptions, regrets, resolutions, promises, expectations. A life that's full of colour and light, where I walk as if no one else is watching, talk as if none of my words matter, eat as if there's no effect of the food on my body, sleep as if I can be in an endless slumber.
If you don't have to think or care about anything, you can live a life of a nobody. Your actions won't matter and that's okay, actions make past or future but you would always live in the present.
Does anyone else gave a bunch of stuff animals and some of those stuff animals are your emotional support stuff animals?
I have 4 emotional support stuff animals here some pictures and their stories
This one doesn't have a name, the reason this is one of my emotional support stuff animals is because it helped me through my parents divorce and I can bear to part with it.
This one I think is named lamb or fluffy I can't remember which, I got this one from my mom's ex bfs daughter she was really nice to me.
These are Rodrigo(the dragon) and j(the plaque doctor.) I got then both for Christmas. Rodrigo reminds me of an old stuff animal I use to have it was a cat that I got from pet smart and it squeaked. Rodrigo also squeaks and is really Huggable when I squeeze him I feel really better. J reminds me of one of my comfort characters:).
I have one more thing to talk about. Yesterday while I was at school the fire alarm went off and we all thought it was just a drill. Well until we got told that it wasn't a drill, me and my friends were hoping it was just some kids who decided to be stupid and pull the alarm. Then TWO fire trucks and some police or sheriff cars pulled up and we all were freaking out, one girl had a break down and two of my friends were NOT doing okay. Then we found out it was just the alarm malfunctioning. We were outside in the heat for our 40-50 minutes almost an hour.
Thank you for listening to my rant and sorry for ranting to you all if you don't want me to do it again I'll stop.
AIGHT WHO TF PITCHED THE IDEA OF MOON RISING (wings of fire) BUT ITS CATS???

sorry for rant im just anrg
honestly, if im going to say anything i should say it now
id never want to be an elk if i had the choice, i wouldnt take it
im glad to have these human abilities, smarts, and privileges. even though i want horns or a muzzle at times that would also mean i would have a horrible life. prey have alot of downsides with their life, prob not even making it to adulthood. its filled with anxiety, your friends and family just dying around you and running since theres only a small chance of successfully fighting back. predators have evolved right next to us so they know our plans, our moves, and our abilities while humans have quite a life of bliss. we even trap animals that can easily kill us like tigers and bears then look at them within zoos.
i cant really think of any other animal id want to be then the human, perhaps a domestic dog or parrot but thats honestly it
sorry for the rant uhhh doodle was drawn on phone this time cuz i was at schol :P
i think a harry potter dni person followed me what do i do i love hp-
I dont support the trans = bad stuff cuz my gender is a mess rn and like bro lemmie just enjoy my silly lil game- also the community itself is very enjoyable and comforting as ive met plenty of gay ppl in there who just dont care about the transphobia stuff cuz harry potter is what they like. tbh for me its what the community is about not the creator, a large example is warrior cats and prob other communities too
uhhh idk what else to say after that small rant whats yalls fave quest in hogwarts legacy? mines where u save buckbeak or tame the lord of the shore idk which one i just love the creatures in that game sm
Yeah, because that's EXACTLY how the ed community works 🤡
Nah, we don't make those "cute aesthetic" diets (this article talks about the sanrio-themed ones) posts and recipes to help each other in our journeys and recovery, we want to INFLUENCE LITTLE KIDS AND INFECT THEM WITH OUR EDS 🤡🤡🤡
