Severance is actually insane for making calling out of work a major point of tension/plot. because it's true, when we call out of work i know so many people--myself included--feel subconsciously compelled to craft the perfect excuse to avoid being perceived as lazy or ungrateful by their employer. but we watched in real time how his lie unintentionally permitted Milchick to push personal boundaries even further by asking for his exact location, which is insanely creepy for an employer to do, but he was taking the ground mark was giving. and then!!!! mark pivots and gives no excuse. "I just want a day off, and no you don't need to know why" and suddenly milchick's power is gone. the dynamic shifts right back to mark, and milchick is reminded "this is just a job." it's just a job! everything he's doing is just a job, and they can pretend they have power outside of lumon all the want, but they don't have power if their employees don't give it to them
Sometimes it does feel weird talking about NSFW bans because you either see it discussed in the sense of "NSFW bans are bad because the systems just randomly shoot innocent queer people!" or "The NSFW was bad (supposedly) but all the weirdos who jacked off to porn went away so things are nicer now" and its like
man that's great meanwhile I don't think Mastercard should decide if I pay someone to draw Cynthia from Pokemon being brainwashed or not.
There's just this unspoken rule that kink art is inherently disposable or cheap or not worth defending and man kink art rocks. I love people who create it. People who write about kink and draw it and live it are the coolest fucking people ever and they shouldn't be targeted period.
Me when a member of my Cougar Squad returns to my lair with more salacious dirt on one of my many enemies

I see how you could get confused but that's actually me when a member of my Cougar Squad returns to my lair with more salacious dirt on one of my many enemies
women who use tiktok i am talking to you directly. yall gotta stop engaging in this girl math women shouldn’t vote shit. it’s not a silly ironic joke men mean that and they are making fun of you. listen to me. call them out when you see it happen. show the kids who use that bastard app that it’s not okay to make jokes like that. stop being part of the problem and stand up for yourselves
betraying someone who trusts them deeply is one of the sexiest things a character can do its unparalleled. cause either the relationship is irrevocably changed and said character is completely at fault (guilt complex, hot) or it isnt and then both sides have to deal with the fact that they care about each other enough to overlook the betrayal (unceasing devotion, also hot)
for people who haven't been exposed to trader joes lentils for my wife guy, you're welcome
i forget that when most people talk about porn they mean boring real life hetslop instead of awesome drawings of girls in cute and unusual situations
How did Treasure Planet manage to come up with the greatest aesthetic in all human history? Victorian elegance plus space-age flair, with just enough dirt and grime and wear and tear to make it feel real? A combination of traditional and computer animation that perfectly embodies the movie's blend of old and futuristic? How does it get any better than that?
Mutuals agreeing with your headcanons is how you gain immortality btw. ascending to godhood as we speak
It's happened over 10 times and at no point have they thought to stop letting him roam so this doesn't happen. The cat is lucky that it's something so benign as a haircut as there's a lot worse that can happen to outdoor cats.
Also I love how this is just a thing that commonly happens to outdoor cats in the UK. I like to think it's people protesting outdoor cats lmao
Don't want your cat shaved? Keep it indoors.
I will never get over this joke Futurama was so important
Luo Binghe in maid dresses (and one butler outfit), drawn for someone on Bluesky. I used two different versions of his design for novelty.
hello tumblr user. in front of you stands a confident and outspoken character. your challenge today & forever is to consider the possibility they may simply have self-confidence and are not just faking to secretly cover up massive insecurities. good luck
"the average fandom person cannot imagine a truly confident person" is a working theory I came up with years ago and every single day on this website my conclusion has proved more & more correct
coming out swinging a year later to say that everyone saying that they do this because "insecure characters have more inherent depth than confident ones" is experiencing what is known as a Skill Issue. get a grip and figure out that there's approximately one million forms of depth and conflict you can write a character experiencing other than generalized fanfictionized Insecurity
Currently fucked up considering that the central point around which 79's agonies are built—yq's promise to come back when he was stronger and save sj—is a child's fantasy. Because even if he had come back? What could he do? Sj was considered qjl's property, it was legally within his rights to do whatever he wanted with him. He had money, now, but qjl would never have given up sj. Being a cultivator wouldn't have put yqy above the law, and exerting his newly-acquired strength to save sj by force would have only earned him a warrant.
Yue Qi becoming a cultivator wasnt some magical cure to everything. There would still be work and planning necessary in order to get him out of there without huge consequnces. And the thing is, I think sqq understands this. I think he understood this when he burnt down the qiu estate, perhaps even long before that. He probably considered plans for it—what to do once Yue Qi came back. But even when he understood, he waited, because the important partof their promise wasnt who precisely did the saving, it was that Yue Qi would come back for him, that Yue Qi cared about him, even if he found a better life for himself
Yue Qingyuan, i think, doesnt understand this at all. I think he really believes if he was just a little faster, if hed just gotten there sooner, if he hadnt been trapped in the caves, if he hadnt messed everything up, then he would have been able to show up in time to whisk sj away. The sentiment of the promise isnt so important to him—of course he loves sj, he always has put him first in all things, it goes without saying bc every single thing he does and says is an "i love you"—to him, the part of the promise that sat most heavily was the responsibilty. Its not enough to come back without strength, its not enough just to care—he had to save sj, and he failed.
Had sqq known he'd tried, he'd surely have viewed his failure as an inevitability, and it wouldnt have bothered him at all. To yqy, his failure is crushing. It is the basis around which every pathetic facet of his personality will be built for the rest of his life.
