There’s only a short time before the Monarch Wings are to be revealed.
It's necessary for me to keep the monks occupied. The Eagle Scope cannot fall into their hands.
Your task is to capture the next Shen Gong Wu-- The Golden Finger.
Chase's ability to pre-emptively sense Shen Gong Wu, even slightly before they awaken, would definitely be a problem if he had an interest in going after them half the time.
It explains how he beat the monks to the Wushan Geyser and the Eagle Scope so easily, but I wonder if it just came with the Lao Mang Lone or if it's a separate skill he honed. It's similar to Wuya and Dojo's sensing, but he seems to know even before they do.
I'd say "it doesn't seem to cause him physical agony like it does for Dojo and Wuya," but Chase suppresses any show of pain from the clearly agonizing transformation, so it's hard to say if it hurts him or not. He wouldn't let it show.
I'm very fond of this video

Apparently some people think America Ferrera's speech in the Barbie movie is "corny" or "obvious" or something like that. But here's my personal perspective
First thing out of the way: I am nonbinary. I am not a woman. I am AFAB, though, and was therefore socialized like a girl and young woman, even if I felt like those words never really applied to me. Most of the time, though, other people who don't know me will see me as a woman. It's whatever.
No, this movie is not saying anything new. It is not a groundbreaking statement to say women face all these exhausting contradictions that cause them to bend over backwards to do the slightest thing.
But I don't think it's supposed to be groundbreaking. I don't think most people at the Barbie movie are going to have a huge revelation because America Ferrera said something that never heard or thought before. In the context of the movie, the character is speaking to a literal doll who has only recently learned that the real world is kinda shitty for a lot of people. Because this doll is literally something little girls project on, and little girls very often grow into women who deal with this shit. Yes, this is feminism 101, because it's speaking to a character who, until a day ago, lived in a matriarchal society where she never HAD to learn feminism 101. The oppression she faces is literally new to her!
And let's not forget that this is being said by a Latina woman in a blockbuster film. How often do you see that? She describes herself as a "boring mom with a boring job," and then she gets to rant about the fact that she's expected to always be extraordinary, but at the end of it all, she just wants her daughter to love her back and have a good day. And because of that, she's the hero of Barbieland!
Yes, it's cheesy. No, it's not subtle in the slightest. But sometimes, it's nice to hear someone say the words out loud.
And honestly, if you're going into the Barbie movie expecting subtlety, that's on you.
ah spoilers but i genuinely think the majority of the real feminism actually happens in the final scenes of the movie, not in this part of the movie.
the "feminism 101" part of the movie, as you said - is still groundbreaking when a latina gets to say her piece to an actually-receptive crowd. nobody interrupts her. nobody shouts her down. she says her piece, and it's correct, and it saves the day.
also (like you said!), in the context of the movie: these women never actually needed feminism 101 until then, because the influence of the patriarchy literally hadn't even been known to the world. ken brings an invasive species into the world, one without any natural defenses. these women need basic feminism because they haven't had to battle injustice in the same way. this is also notably not framed as the climax of the movie.
because i think the climax might be barbie - stereotypical barbie - turning away from an idyllic world of basic feminism ... and accepting something else entirely. she has seen the humanity of the real world (that first moment with the old woman) and she knows it is loud and obnoxious and strange and complicated. and then she turns to her creator (a woman!), and she asks her creator: can i be a person?
feminism 101 is "it is hard to be a lady!" and "i am woman, hear me roar!" ...and it is still occasionally exceptionality. it is still assuming we are all powerful and smart and brave and supermom whatever else. but sometimes you are just 30 and bad at math and you're still a fucking person. feminism isn't just "women can be presidents" it's women can be failures. they can be cruel, manipulative, violent. because women are humans.
a woman's personhood shouldn't rely on how palatable she is. you shouldn't have to be white and thin and pretty and pouty with bouncy hair and margot's face in order to be taken seriously. being a woman is also the """"ugly"""" parts that men fucking hate thinking about - being a woman is also hair caught in a zipper and eye gunk and sweat stains and and blood chunks and cellulite and ripped earlobes and yes going to the gynecologist.
the final scene of the movie isn't a woman who accepts her role as president or who is gleefully ready to try to rebuild society: it's a human person having to deal with her human body. it is her Creator giving her the same choice she was given at the start of the movie - perfection, feminism 101, the ideal! ... or mortality, and just having to be a person inside of the patriarchy, every single fucking day.
and this time... barbie chooses the world where it is hard, and ugly, and painful. she chooses the hard way.
and that's a kind of feminism i think... like. might have gone unnoticed. that's all i am trying to say.
Imagine waiting for the coast guard or whatever to show up and instead a replica of 18th century merchant ship pulls up and tows you to the coast.
pov: you’ve been transported to the 17th century
#in the article it says that the sailboat sailors were concerned because they could not be towed quickly because of the kind of boat#so they asked Götheborg what type of ship they were and warned that they would not be able to go above a certain speed#and götheborg went ' we are also a sailboat. 50 meters length. no worries :) '#and the poor sailboat sailors were just like ' That's not possible. they have to be messing with us' and then the ship Rolled Up (via bunjywunjy)
I'm crying. Here's a photo of a sailor from the Götheborg watching over the little sailboat in tow:
From the story:
We repeatedly emphasized that we were aboard a small 8-meter sailboat, but the response was the same each time: "We are a 50-meter three-masted sailboat, and we offer our assistance in towing you to Paimpol." We were perplexed by the size difference between our two boats, as we feared being towed by a boat that was too large and at too fast a speed that could damage our boat. The arrival of the Götheborg on the scene was rapid and surprising, as we did not expect to see a merchant ship from the East India Company of the XVIII century. This moment was very strange, and we wondered if we were dreaming. Where were we? What time period was it? The Götheborg approached very close to us to throw the line and pass a large rope. The mooring went well, and our destinies were linked for very long hours, during which we shared the same radio frequency to communicate with each other. The crew of the Götheborg showed great professionalism and kindness towards us. They adapted their speed to the size of our boat and the weather conditions. We felt accompanied by very professional sailors. Every hour, the officer on duty of the Götheborg called us to ensure everything was going well.[...] This adventure, very real, was an incredible experience for us. We were extremely lucky to cross paths with the Götheborg by chance and especially to meet such a caring crew. Dear commander and crew of the Götheborg, your kindness, and generosity have shown that your ship is much more than just a boat. It embodies the noblest values of the sea, and we are honored to have had the chance to cross your path and benefit from your help.
"Our destinies were linked for very long hours" is just knocking me out.
The way Malleus excitedly seeks you out and is his number one go-to to fanboy about gargoyles actually says a lot about how much he values you???? He's not the type of person to overshare when not prompted by the person or the current situation (like if someone says gargoyles are grotesques lol), so this is actually a really great indication of how much he favors the player.
My best friend (who isn't on Tumblr and couldn't see this embarrassingly cheesy post thankfully) is ND as well and it's a really great honor to be who she messages and calls first to share about something she liked today. Many NDs aren't really comfortable talking with just anyone, so to be blessed with their excited affection is one of the world's treasures to be honest. The positivity immediately makes your day! I'm so glad that Malleus has Yuu who listens to him for hours and makes him happy.
Thank you so much to @yourstardustfairy for sharing me these cute screencaps. 🥹💚 I'm so happy!
I make these comics as much to remind myself what I'm learning as I do to share them with you all. I finally took action to get help with my anxiety when I realized it was preventing me from living my life. I kept cancelling plans or avoiding things because I felt anxious---and avoiding them made the anxiety go away! (At least until the next time.) However, it was clear that I wasn't making choices aligned with my values, and I wanted to change that. Facing your fears a little at a time is often used in exposure therapy. When a therapist first recommended it to me, I balked because I didn't feel brave enough to do something scary. However, the very act of doing something scary has helped me feel braver. It is still very difficult sometimes! But I know it's important work.

Practically purring you skipped into the lov's hideout, ignoring the calls of your name and making your way to your beloved's room. Tapping at the door, you walk in, closing the door behind you.
"What do you want."
"Hi baby!"
"Oh- hey precious." Tomura cooed, voice instantly softened at your presence.
"I'm home from my mission~" you drawl, collasping on your boyfriend's form.
"Goregous- I can't see." Tomura whined, causing you to straddle his waist so he could see his tv screen.
"Thanks precious. And welcome back." Tomura whipsered, kissing your shoulder while he focussed on his game.
"How about cuddles after you're done? And we can probably make Kurogiri or Dabi to get us food."
"Mmm~ sounds perfect sweetness."
Smiling, you burried yourself into Tomura's cooler body, inhaling the scent you've missed for the past three weeks.
