*writes I LIKE GIRLS on every other page of my journals so future historians don’t try to insist that I’m straight”
Future straight Historians: “we see several examples of her prioritizing a sisterly bond with the women around her, for example on page 12 she says ‘I like girls’ and throughout the text she references loving women and preferring their company. This is not to say she prioritized above her romantic relationships because on page 78 she mentions talking to a man one time in her life. It’s hard to know just how much she valued her sisterly bond with women due to this one reference of men and the ambiguity of early 21st century slang. For example on page 12 when she said she liked women, the passage continues ’…in a lesbian way. I want to kiss girls, they are so pretty, I’m so gay.’ Now it’s difficult to understand just what that sentence means. We know that in the early 21st century kissing on the cheek in greeting had gone out of vogue but the word gay, a word with an archaic meaning of happiness gives the contextual clues that perhaps she is references that old fashioned practice.
Going back to the nameless man that is mentioned once on page 78 for one sentance…”
“Now, given that she wrote on page 12, ‘Just to be clear: I’m sexually and romantically attracted to women exclusively,’ one may be tempted to read this literally, but we can’t rule out sarcasm.”
It may seem like @vilesbian is joking, but she really isn’t.
ok I’m polish and there is no heterosexual “idiomatic” explanation for this, no way
historical figure writing a personal letter to a “friend” of the same sex: “I want to frick you so bad. baby im so horny for you hhhhhh come here and get a piece of thiiiis”
straight historian: “it is easy to misunderstand the colorful and affectionate language of their time .no homo :)”
imagine - REALLY imagine that there’s someone on the fringes of your friend group who’s kinda glommed onto you because you’re too nice to tell him he’s weird and to fuck off, so you let him follow you around and you invite him to stuff because it seems to make him happy and because no one else really likes him so you feel bad and even though he’s annoying and condescending sometimes you make him feel like he’s your friend, and then he adds you on Facebook and you see this and know it is about you
A lil’ comic I made with dialogue taken from episode 6 of The Adventure Zone.
I’m sorta in this situation where I WANT to make comics, but I never have a good idea for them, so I did this just to flex my comic muscles again. I’m gonna try to do 1-2 page comics like this from each arc, so hopefully I’ll follow through with that. *crosses fingers*
art that you should never mock:
- beginners and children
art that should always be open to mocking:
- fetish art, animation errors in cartoons, those t shirts at hot topic that are like “what if rick and Morty…… but totaro and doctor who!!!”, erica moen, grown men that get paid hundreds for their work but can still only draw sexy skinny women,
You might know that the design on Ed’s portal of truth is the Tree
of Sephiroth. What you might not know is that it’s actually two
trees. The Sephiroth are the ten virtues of God as described by
Jewish mystics, and eight of them appear twice on Ed’s door. What
about the other two, you ask? Well, the first Sephiroth, Cheter, is only shown once, at the top of the door.
The other Sephiroth* are then placed along the “branches” of the tree
and then again at the roots, branching out from the tenth Sephiroth, Malchuth
The first Sephiroth is missing from these roots, but there are still ten branches. Instead of showing the first one again, the fourth Sephiroth, Chesed, is shown twice on our left side of the door. I say our left because we are looking at it face on, but Edward is usually shown standing in front of it with the multiple Chesed on his right.
Now why does it matter which side the Chesed are on? Because Chesed, which means heavenly kindness or mercy, is symbolized by the right hand.
The right hand which Truth takes in exchange for Al’s soul, which Winry replaces at least twice, which Al sacrifices himself for in order to save Ed’s life, is represented three times on Ed’s door of truth. Ed’s right hand symbolizes the loving kindness shown between himself and his family, for whom he sacrifices his gate, which he claims not to need when he has the love and kindness of the people around him.
And that’s what I love about Ed’s final visit to the portal of Truth. It ties up so many of the messages about human bonding in the manga/brotherhood - that we form communities in order to survive, that our hope and trust in one another is our greatest strength - and especially since it’s shown directly after the Dwarf in the Flask’s final conversation with Truth, we see how different Ed and the father homunculus are. Instead of destroying others to build himself up, Ed sacrifices parts of himself to serve the people he loves. Because when you (to paraphrase Jesus) love your neighbor as yourself, their losses are your losses, and their victories yours. And if every human being made that choice, the things we could achieve together would be limitless.
As an entry-level DnD player can someone explain to me in the simplest possible way how to differentiate wizards, warlocks, and sorcerers from each other?
wizards is imbued with magic, you just need to prepare mentally your spells.
sorcerer studied magic, you need to physically prepare your spells and often need materials.
warlock has magic because of demon, you have access to mainly dark magic as well as eldritch blast as a free unlimited cantrip.
to be honest, play-wise wizards & sorcerers are very similar as they tend to have a lot of shared spells. sorcerers get to specialize in a school of magic more than wizards though. and warlock its pretty much just dark magic.
this, except reverse wizards and sorcerers.
sorcerers innately have their magic (usually because someone fucked a magic being. often a dragon)
wizards studied magic and learned accordingly. they also tend to be older, but not always.
warlocks get their magic from pacts with magic beings (which i don’t think necessarily have to be demons).
