The tonal shift of the chimera ant arc really is something incredible. First I thought there was no possible way Kite could be captured and disabled by a fucking infant, then I thought that surely Gon and Killua would defeat Knuckle and Shoot, surviving on training montages and plot armor alone. My hopeful expectations are continuously being denied. It’s like the anime shifted to a slightly different universe, one that I’m wholly enthralled by the grimness of. It lays in stark contrast to Gon’s can-do attitude, and in sordid agreement to Killua’s instincts.

Actually that’s a perfect comparison. You start the narrative through Gon’s eyes, and your vision gradually shift’s to Killua’s. Everything had a perfect solution in the hunter exam arc, tied off with a pretty little bow. You’re gradually weaned off the hopes and dreams of the early days until you can stomach the idea of an undefeatable villain with a taste for hunters’ flesh. And to top it off, it’s an actual danger to the two kiddos that you’ve been made to deeply know and love not only individually, but on the basis of the serendipitous friendship woven between them.

this headline should be “police kill innocent child in reckless firebombing”

The innocent boy’s name is Brett Rosenau. He was 15 years old, not 14 like some news outlets have reported. Here is a link to donate to his funeral expenses. His father, whom Brett is named after, was shot by police on December 31st, 2006. He was 24 years old and his son was months away from being born.

His mother Amanda Lopez has lost both her partner and son at the hands of police.

It takes me the longest of all people to understand a difficult concept, and the process to is incredibly painful and tiresome. However, once it (the concept) clicks I see it with such powerful clarity that I can immediately begin to teach others around me to have a better understanding than myself, and teach whoever taught me X concept on new perspectives of it that they hadn't considered before, including how to better teach an autistic person whatever they were trying to teach me, because when I'm learning I always have to be simultaneously teaching the person who is currently trying to teach me on how to in fact teach me. I experienced this a lot in highschool!! Anyways it's EXHAUSTING but I do kind of miss the excitement on the faces of actually nice teachers who were very enthused that I was so enthused to be teaching them, because all the other teachers were just pricks with superiority complex over fucking children let alone disabled ones. I absolutely do not miss being demanded that I learn shit the "right" way and just repeating that shit in my head and on my keyboard makes me want to peel the skin off satan's feet with my fucking teeth (which would be SO much more enjoyable of an experience than whatever the fuck being autistic in america's public education system was)

somebody somehow found and liked this and I still agree even though I'm far out of that shit by now
