Being a Kamen Rider is: you live with your choices, and maybe you suffer for them. Usually you find some friends along the way.

It’s: you save the World, or the Worlds, at a cost, be it to yourself or to loved ones. You fight because people need you.

You die for it. You live for it. You change for it.

Being a Kamen Rider is: you believe in your heart that humanity is good. You believe with everything in you that the future is bright.

Being a Kamen Rider is about hope, and it’s about despair, and most of all, it is about undying love.

Why do you put on the belt? Why does she? Why does he? Why do they, plural and singular, because anyone can choose, and sometimes being a Rider is no solo endeavor, and does it matter?

Being a Kamen Rider is like the line between a fall and a rise, the best and the worst of the World, the Worlds.

Being a Kamen Rider is about smiles, and laughter. Protecting it and taking it back for yourself in the knowledge that you are making a difference. Bring it out in others, learn to smile again.

Learn to grow.

Being a Kamen Rider is about growing. About bringing out what’s already in one’s heart. Because there is good in there, hopefully.

Sometimes, being a Kamen Rider is staining the legacy, blending the line between monsters and heroes even further, when villains, some even with the best of intentions, use that same name.

Kamen Rider.

It’s about denying destiny. Because destiny will cast you as the villain, or the tragic hero, or perhaps both. But in turn, as always, it is about choice. Choosing for yourself, to fight, and why.

Maybe you chose whether to fight or to cower. Maybe you had no choice. Maybe you chose to change or to stay as you are.

…And again, maybe you had no choice.

There’s always that possibility.

(Maybe you chose evil, chose to become the blurred line… maybe you had no choice.)

But there’s always a choice in it, somewhere.

What will you choose?

There’s no thanks, in this. You will suffer. You will blur the line yourself, no matter what pinnacle you create or reach. And if you do?

Being a Kamen Rider means realizing power only leaves you lonely…

Loneliness is a part of it, the inevitability of otherhood, and that is the center of it, isn’t it? The Cross of Fire is yours to bear. And it will leave you lonely. It will make you resent your fate, perhaps. It will remind you of your sins.

Being a Kamen Rider is lonely… but.

But it also can bring you to friends, perhaps to family.

Being a Kamen Rider is about friendship, too. It’s about the ones who are there, when it’s too much. The ones who celebrate your greatest victories and carry you through your most crushing defeats. The ones who fight with you.

The ones who betray you. The ones who kill you and the ones you kill.

The ones you lose.

There’s always another side, isn’t there, but isn’t that the beauty?

Because for every darkness, there is another candle, holding the light.

It’s hard, it’s ugly and brutal, so cry, so rage, so scream, Kamen Rider. Feel it, because this is a part of you.

But… get up. Hold onto your heart. Pull your smile and your love and your hope back together and turn that into your passion…

And now, listen.

Kamen Rider!

Do you hear it, Kamen Rider? Do you hear them calling your name?

Being a Kamen Rider is this, this culmination of legacy. It is the cross of fire, the evil in your blood. It’s fifty lights, no more, and more every time you blink, against the flame. It is a million double sided coins.

It is you, Kamen Rider.

Kamen Rider!

…remember what was said about choice?

How To Get A Job Fast As Hell

 @owenabbott​ 

  • Apply to a  job, wait (1) day, then call.  Give them your first and last name. Tell them you submitted an application and that you’re very motivated to find [Enter field name] work. Let the conversation lead you wherever it takes. Be very polite. Say” thank you for your time, I’ll be looking forward to hearing back from you.” Rinse, repeat. This is to force them to be looking out for your application. 
  •  When you get to the interview, shake their hand firmly,  tell them your first and last name.  
  • Describe your experiences  as “ two years transcription and data entry” if you have a desk job interview and “ [however many years]  costumer service, retail and stock” for your retail jobs.  
  • Don’t use job “ buzz words” I stg they hear them all day. Say  things like, “ I’m detail oriented and am very good at taking instruction.”  “ I would like to work for a company with integrity and I feel that [ company name] would be a good fit”
  • When they ask you if you have “reliable transportation” say  YES. don’t tell them what kind of transportation, just say yes. (if you don’t do this, you wont get the job , I’m telling you right now). 
  • Research the company. Know what they do, why they do it, how OLD the company is. WHERE it was founded, and what kind of position you’re intending to apply for.
  • When they ask you “ give us a situation where you had to blah blah blah” Make one the fuck up. Make yourself sound good as hell, and like you put your company’s needs slightly above the customer’s needs, but make the customer happy. 
  • If they ask you about being outgoing, Say you “like to focus on your work so you can concentrate on doing things right” (which buys you out of having to act friendly all the time)

Questions for after the interview:

1.  Does this position offer upward mobility?

2. Do you enjoy working for the company? (if you’re not interviewing for a temp agency who will send you anywhere)

  •  Then, shake their hand,  Ask them to repeat their name (REMEMBER THIS) say thank you for your time, wish them a nice day and leave. write their name down outside if you have to, just remember the fuck out of it. 
  • AFTER your interview, send a card directed to the name of the person who interviewed you (I’ll give you them) that says “Thank you for the interview, I appreciate the opportunity. have a great day” This shows  that you have an understanding of professionalism, and will have them thinking of you kindly (or at least remembering you) when they’re shuffling through the choices. 
  • DO NOT tell them you just moved to the city over the phone.  In person, tell them you just moved to the city. Make it sound like the only reason you need a job is because you moved. Not because you’re desperate.

tell me a quirk you have while playing pokémon. for example i literally never use a full team of 6

Avatar

I refuse to use a type twice on the same team. And if possible, I try to not use Pokémons (pokemen?) that I’ve used in recent memory on other play throughs before

I have to have my starter on the team. If not, I feel gross.

I never sell status clearing items No matter how unlikely I’m going to use them. I always think I’ll need them later.

Probably more an ocd thing then just a quirk but the starter has to be the top left spot, regional flyer middle right and the pseudo legendary (or just straight up strongest) has to fill the bottom right in the line up. I have had so many knock outs bc I refused to switch them if they weren't fainted.

Spy x Family Fics Recommendations

A while ago I asked for Spy x Family fics recommendations (thank you to all who answered!). Now, here are my recommendations, all of them in ao3:

Person of interest, by suchmadness: In which Twilight and Yor get to discover they are soulmates. A beautiful and exciting story!

Peace, consuming, by foxphantom: A little piece of fluff, kinda sexy too. In which Loid and Yor discuss baby names. 

Wonderland by Puolain: Everything by this author is beautiful, but this particular work is chef’s kiss! It has a little bit of everything and my favorites are her AU shots @puolain

Loid Forger is NOT a cuddler by AssassinNumber9: A super cute, fluffy, funny piece. Come on, the name says it all!

Things about you, by Tare: A super sweet story about identity reveal. Daily shenanigans is another highly recommended story by the same author @tare-anime

Until we run out of mornings by bloomdove: This one is a super exciting identity reveal, very intense too.

Saccharin, by Lacrow: Anything written by this author is simply fantastic! My personal favorite is Saccharin, in which Twilight is at home recovering from a kidnapping. It has plenty of fluff, humor, and that last chapter is incredibly hot!

All the Things We Cannot Say by nightofnyx8: This story has one of the sexiest kisses I have ever read. The plot is oh so good too. Do yourself a favor and read this! @nightofnyx8

Roses Bloom red in my Heart by deonideatta: In which Twilight develops a super cute (but deadly) disease from unrequited love and only Yor can save him. I loved this one @deonideatta

A map of every blade by nire: This one is hands down my absolute favorite. In this story, Twilight tries to seduce his wife under Wise’s orders, after they discover she’s Thorn Princess. Incredibly soft and moving, but also very, very sexy. It’s also very well-written, characters are on point, and the pace is exciting and flawless. A f*cking masterpiece if you ask me @nire-the-mithridatist

And last, but not least…

The Last Days of Operation Strix by whateversawesome (yeah, yeah, it’s me): Here, Twilight and Yor finally realize how they feel about each other. This is the story of how they get together. There’s plenty of fluff, angst, romance, and spice too. I’m having tons of fun writing it!

That’s it! If you have any recommendations, let me know. I’ll be happy to read them and add them to the list. 

With Spy x Family anime started to air, the fandom gain more people!! I’m so happy!!

For those want to read fics, we do have lots of awesome fanfics that you can find at AO3.

As for my own works, if you adore TwiYor (LoiYor or Loid x Yor) as much as I do, and want to read them you can go to my AO3 profile. 

Please beware of Manga spoilers if you’re only watching the Anime.

Here are some of my own favorites: 

EDIT: whoah, never expected this post to gain this much attention. Anyway, I put several links to my all time sxf TwiYor favorite fics from my favorite authors (so I will not sound like someone who boast her own writing and have no shame, though I am 😛)

Everything written by Lacrow are amazing. These are my favorites though:

The Wicked Tale of the Thorn Princess (a Fairy Tale AU) by JaMills

Your Sweet lips on My lips (8 kisses to fall in love) by Peachygirlie

Mission Complete (what happen at the end of Operation Strix) by Arthurthegatekeeper

Words, Scars, and Choices (Soulmate AU) by Arthurthegatekeeper

A Little Less Than Superhuman (Loid was sick, and Yor took care of him) by Cellwright

Chance Encounter (Eden AU) by smallestsenpai

May I (Loid and Yor dancing) by smallestsenpai

If Your heart was a House You’d be home (LoiYor hurt comfort) by calmthestorm

Mending what’s Broken (Identity reveal) by LittlestFallenAngel

Of Glass and Smoke (LoiYor hurt comfort/nightmare) by Pokegeek151

Keeping secrets just to keep you (Identity reveal AU) by dancingpineaples

I want to lean on you in drunkness (drunk Yor, Loid took care of her) by coloredice

Dude: *starts laughing* “Thanks-”

DVC: “COME.”

Dude: *laughs harder*

DVC: “COME. COME.”

Dude: *laughs even harder* “Only one of you had to do it for it, for it-!”

DVC: “COME.”

Dude: *squeak-laughs* “Thanks, ‘preciate it.” *chuckles a bit more*

Tama is boss

THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM

Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]

For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.

Beautiful.

Now I’m crying thanks

and a new cat was hired right?

yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy

she works very hard

Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.

I’m crying at 11pm over train cats

Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016).  There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.

^Nitama majestic, and below with Yontama

Yontama.

a legacy

okay but actually what happened to santama (or sun-tama-tama, which is her name because it’s a pun on santama) was that she was basically sent to train for the position in okayama and they liked her so much they refused to send her back

“Sun-tama-tama” (a pun off of “Santama”, lit. “third Tama”) was a calico cat sent for training in Okayama. Sun-tama-tama was considered as a candidate for Tama’s successor, but the Okayama Public Relations representative who had been caring for Sun-tama-tama refused to give the cat up writing, “I will not let go of this child, she will stay in Okayama.” [25]
As of September 2018, Sun-tama-tama is working as the stationmaster in Naka-ku, Okayama and appears occasionally on Tama’s Twitter account.

Every time I see this post there’s new info and it gets better

You are only allowed to scroll pass this after you pay tribute to the great Tama Station masters.

The shrine of Tama Daimyōjin (Great gracious deity Tama), next to the Kishi station where she worked.

Nitama presenting her yearly offerings to Tama Daimyōjin on the anniversary of Tama’s Death, June 23 (The offerings are presented by the company president, as Nitama is a cat and thus can’t hold the offerings herself) (Not pictured, but also present, Yontama)

you cannot pass without reblogging guys. i’m sorry, i don’t make the rules.

You can’t not reblog a goddess. It’s just what’s so. :)

So, fun fact- the manga Noragami has an arc where the main character, Yato (a minor kami/God that is down on his luck but trying to make it big time) goes to a council/conference for all the Gods in Japan.

And they are announcing the winner of the “up and coming god” award, and of course, Yato thinks it’s him.

But no-

ITS TAMA!

The Outbursts of Everett True was a comic strip that ran in papers from 1905 to 1927, wherein the aforementioned Everett True regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude. Men have not only been taking up too much room on public transport for about as long as public transport has existed, but the people around them have been irritated about it for at least a hundred years. The next time someone tries to claim that manspreading is a false phenomenon, please direct them to this strip so that Everett True can correct their misconceptions with an umbrella upside the head.

I have never before heard of Everett True, but if he “regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude,” I have a strong spiritual connection with him.

I fucking love him

i can imagine this guy’s voice very clearly in my head but i couldn’t put a name to it 

He also jabs racists in the eye!

I love the justice grandpa of fists

I’m very lucky to own a book that’s a collection of most of these comics (sadly not all of them) and would highly recommend hunting these down if you can. Sorry for the lack of a scanner but phone photos will just have to do.

He was a enjoyable cuss who didn’t care for war mongering.

Especially profitable war mongering and excuses for it!

He certainly didn’t like selfish husbands and fathers!

Politicians who turned on their words once they got theirs weren’t safe.

He said fuck the police!

He absolutely didn’t like people ruining little things for kids.

He stood up for foreigners. Especially those doing their best to communicate with limited second language knowledge.

He was not having any tomfoolery when it came to gun safety and laws. Especially with youth involved.

You had better not abuse a animal with him nearby. He’d right that wrong real quick!

And best of all him and his wife were both prickly cusses together. Relationship goals.

I have a new role model

😍

“justice grandpa of fists”

It’s nice to see a fat dude in a political cartoon that’s NOT being used as shorthand for greed and corruption.

Hes like the personification of motherfucker unlimited

Reblogging this newer version of this thread with so many more strips I haven’t seen…why did this character ever disappear. Where did you go, Everett.

we need him more than ever…

Asks I’ll Probably Need to Refer People to Later

Adult Cheat Sheet:

Once you’ve looked over all those cool links, I have some general advice for you on how you can have some sort of support system going for you:

Reasons to move out of home

You may decide to leave home for many different reasons, including:

  • wishing to live independently
  • location difficulties – for example, the need to move closer to university
  • conflict with your parents
  • being asked to leave by your parents.

Issues to consider when moving out of home

It’s common to be a little unsure when you make a decision like leaving home. You may choose to move, but find that you face problems you didn’t anticipate, such as:

  • Unreadiness – you may find you are not quite ready to handle all the responsibilities.
  • Money worries – bills including rent, utilities like gas and electricity and the cost of groceries may catch you by surprise, especially if you are used to your parents providing for everything. Debt may become an issue.
  • Flatmate problems – issues such as paying bills on time, sharing housework equally, friends who never pay board, but stay anyway, and lifestyle incompatibilities (such as a non-drug-user flatting with a drug user) may result in hostilities and arguments.

Your parents may be worried

Think about how your parents may be feeling and talk with them if they are worried about you. Most parents want their children to be happy and independent, but they might be concerned about a lot of different things. For example:

  • They may worry that you are not ready.
  • They may be sad because they will miss you.
  • They may think you shouldn’t leave home until you are married or have bought a house.
  • They may be concerned about the people you have chosen to live with.

Reassure your parents that you will keep in touch and visit regularly. Try to leave on a positive note. Hopefully, they are happy about your plans and support your decision.

Tips for a successful move

Tips include:

  • Don’t make a rash decision – consider the situation carefully. Are you ready to live independently? Do you make enough money to support yourself? Are you moving out for the right reasons?
  • Draw up a realistic budget – don’t forget to include ‘hidden’ expenses such as the property’s security deposit or bond (usually four weeks’ rent), connection fees for utilities, and home and contents insurance.
  • Communicate – avoid misunderstandings, hostilities and arguments by talking openly and respectfully about your concerns with flatmates and parents. Make sure you’re open to their point of view too – getting along is a two-way street.
  • Keep in touch – talk to your parents about regular home visits: for example, having Sunday night dinner together every week.
  • Work out acceptable behaviour – if your parents don’t like your flatmate(s), find out why. It is usually the behaviour rather than the person that causes offence (for example, swearing or smoking). Out of respect for your parents, ask your flatmate(s) to be on their best behaviour when your parents visit and do the same for them.
  • Ask for help – if things are becoming difficult, don’t be too proud to ask your parents for help. They have a lot of life experience.

If your family home does not provide support

Not everyone who leaves home can return home or ask their parents for help in times of trouble. If you have been thrown out of home or left home to escape abuse or conflict, you may be too young or unprepared to cope.

If you are a fostered child, you will have to leave the state-care system when you turn 18, but you may not be ready to make the sudden transition to independence.

If you need support, help is available from a range of community and government organisations. Assistance includes emergency accommodation and food vouchers. If you can’t call your parents or foster parents, call one of the associations below for information, advice and assistance.

Where to get help

  • Your doctor
  • Kids Helpline Tel. 1800 55 1800
  • Lifeline Tel. 13 11 44
  • Home Ground Services Tel. 1800 048 325
  • Relationships Australia Tel. 1300 364 277
  • Centrelink Crisis or Special Help Tel. 13 28 50
  • Tenants Union of Victoria Tel. (03) 9416 2577

Things to remember

  • Try to solve any problems before you leave home. Don’t leave because of a fight or other family difficulty if you can possibly avoid it.
  • Draw up a realistic budget that includes ‘hidden’ expenses, such as bond, connection fees for utilities, and home and contents insurance.
  • Remember that you can get help from a range of community and government organizations.

and as you stand on the gravelly shore and cry to the sea, what you don't know is that we all love you.

and as you stand on the gravelly shore and cry to the sea, what you don't know is that we always loved you.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the sea is watching.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the sea is listening.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the sea is crying.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the sea is tired of crying.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the sea is drained of salt. the water becomes fresh, to the detriment of the world. the water becomes palatable, but the life within suffocates for but a second.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the salt has concentrated.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the salt is now a spear.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the salt is strong.

and as they stand on the gravelly shore, renouncing you, what they don't know is that the salt is sharp.

and as they kneel on the gravelly shore, renouncing themselves, what they don't know is that the sea is not giving mercy.

and as they cry on the gravelly shore, renouncing thenselves, what they don't know is that the sea is tired of crying.

and as they lay on the gravelly shore, renouncing themselves, what they don't know is that the sea is watching.

and as they lay on the gravelly shore, renouncing themselves, what they don't know is that the sea is reviving. salt decrystallizes and exits them, once more becoming liquid within the brine.

and as they, what they don't know is that the sea is eternal.

and as they, what they don't know is that they aren't anymore.

and as they die on the gravelly shore, what they realize is that the sea will outlive us all. but this time the sea chose that they would not outlive anyone ever again.

and as you stand on the gravelly shore and gaze into the sea renouncing a lost love, what you don't know is that the sea loves you.

what you don't know is that the sea loves you.

what you know is that the sea loves you.

what the sea knows is you love it, too.

what the sea knows

the sea knows you.

Photographer Captures the Pastel Pink and Blue Hues of a Snowy Landscape

Photographer Alex Ugalnikov captures the soft hazy blue and pink hues of the snowy Belarus landscape. The morning fog, the gentle reflections of the snow and sun create an ethereal and pastel fog in the cold. The lavender sky, the snow-covered trees create a scene from a fairytale novel. The frozen twigs, icicles, and frozen chunks of water create the natural beauty of the shivering snow mornings.

The transparent shards of ice seem to glitter making the passage airy and celestial. The fairy-like view captures the beauty of the glistening countryside.

When people assume Celtic = Irish I get a strong urge to stab myself in the eye.

No no no no no no. 

Sit down we must have a conversation.

There were 6 Celtic nations.

Éire, Cymru, Alba, Kernow, Breizh, and Ellan Vannin.

Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Cornwall, Brittany, and the Isle of Mann respectively.

They’re all related, but not the same. They all have different languages descended from a similar group, Irish (Gaeilge), Scottish (Gàidhlig), Manx (Gaelg), Welsh (Cymraeg), Cornish (Kernowek), and Breton (Brezhoneg). Some are more widely spoken than others, for example Welsh is still commonly spoken in Wales, whereas hearing Cornish in Cornwall instead of English is rare.  All Celtic nations have varied mythology and culture. Irish Mythology is different from Breton Mythology, and even Welsh and Cornish mythology (arguably the most related Celtic Nations) have subtle differences to each other. I wish I could add more about the cultures at this time but my knowledge of Celtic nations is primarily made up of the history and languages of those regions, particularly Cornwall. 

You might have notice that England and English are missing from this, because the English descended from Anglo-Saxons, who were German invaders that came to the isles right around the Fall of the Roman empire in the 5th Century, erasing the Celtic influence in what is now England. 

So what this all really means is that Celtic is an umbrella term, and just because it’s Celtic doesn’t mean it has anything to do with Ireland at all. So don’t assume that just because someone’s talking about something Celtic that they’re talking about something Irish.

Furthermore there are currently six modern Celtic languages divided into two families. The Goidelic or Gaelic languages: Irish, Scots Gaelic and Manx, which are all descended from Middle Irish; and the Brythonic languages: Welsh, Cornish and Breton all descended from Common Brythonic. It should be noted that both Manx and Cornish are revived languages, that is they effectively died (There were no living native speakers) for a time, but revitalisation efforts amongst the communities to learn the languages as second languages resulted in children picking up the languages as their first language, thus returning the languages to living languages with communities of native speakers. Although all of the languages are growing in number of speakers at each count, only Welsh is not counted as being endangered. This revitalisation is part of why the written form of Manx is so different to that of its sisters, despite the close similarity of the spoken form; its spelling is designed to make sense to a native English speaker, whereas Irish and Gaelic use a more traditional phonetic spelling system which only makes sense if you are used to the concept of a séimhiú being represented by the letter h. The Manx for “Isle of Man”, for example, is “Ellan Vannin” whereas the Irish name is “Oileán Mhanann” while the spelling is very different the actual pronunciation is almost identical. Both refer to Manannán mac Lir of the Tuath dé Danann, an ancient race of supernatural creatures, often interpreted as a christian retelling of the ancient Gaelic gods.

Also, depending on who you ask, there’s a seventh Celtic nation! It’s Galicia, a region in northwestern Spain. Opinions are divided as to whether it’s Celtic enough to “count”, but here are some sources for further reading:

…and I can’t help but link to my own post of the beautiful song “Va unan,” sung in Breton and Spanish by the chorus “L’Ensemble choral du bout du monde” with the Spanish guest vocalist Jesús Cifuentes from the band Celtas Cortos.

I think I’m honor bound to always repost this.
