Loyal Boredom

@light-on-eastern-hill

I'm here because I got bored. What else is there to say? Might change with time. Might ramble on about life or things that I like. We'll see.

So, I woke up this morning all ready to read some new fics on Ao3, and I see that it’s acting really slow even tho it was fine like 10 mins ago.

After trying to close to app and go back in, trying different tabs, disconnecting and reconnecting to the Wi-Fi and hitting the reload button about 9 times, I start to wonder if it’s a me problem or a them problem.

So, in light of this, the first thing I do is NOT check their twitter. Oh no no no, the FIRST thing I do is go on this god-forsaken app and search up the ao3 tag because I KNOW that if it’s down then people will inevitably complain about it on here.

AND I WAS FREAKING RIGHT.

I hate that the only way I efficiently know what’s going on in the world is through Tik Tok and Tumblr posts.

Tumblr shouldn’t be so reliable.

i had three fic ideas.  wrote one.  i still have three fic ideas.  this is not how math is supposed to work.

can this post please back up it’s too close to home

I had five ideas, I wrote two, now I have seven

Listen. They’re called “plot bunnies” for a reason, and it’s not just because they hop around all over your brain demanding attention.

this post walked into my house and kicked in my ribs

For anyone who ever asked me where ideas come from. They creep in and breed when you’re making something else.

Funny little thought:

12 Mikey teaching the other Mikey's Japanese and once they all learn it they immediately start to shit talk everyone. I mean everyone. They avoid the Splinter's and the rest of the 12 boys because they know Japanese. They go around for awhile just talking smack and finally they talk smack in front of the 07 group and 07 Mikey says something like:

"My brother Raphael is a dummy and he doesn't know that I call him that because he can't speak Japanese."

And the other Mikey's start to snicker because that's the whole fun of the situation and then deadass 07 Raph looks up at his little brother and calmly in fluent Japanese replies back:

"Maybe it's you who's the dummy little brother."

And there's this deadass silence as they all stare baffled before 07 Raph is going for his little brother for his quip and it's chaotic from there out.

Later it's revealed that 12 Raph had caught onto 12 Mikey's game and had decided to do his own little plan and got 12 Leo and 12 Donnie involved and they'd started to teach their counterparts Japanese so that they can understand what their little brothers are saying and 12 Mikey just looks at his older brothers in dumbfounded amazement. And to make it even funnier 07 Leo then says:

"Better luck next time little ones."

In fluent Spanish and Rise Leo just nods in agreement leaving the Mikey's suddenly out of the loop. Turns out 07 Leo and Rise Leo decided to add onto this plan and teach everyone Spanish and other languages from Central America and they continue to speak in these languages driving their little brothers nuts. Eventually they too learn these languages.

I am furious

For those of you who do not know, HBO Max had just released a massive list of animation shows that it will be removing permanently from its streaming service. This includes Infinity Train, Mao Mao, Summer Camp Island and OK KO. For a lot of these shows, they can be found nowhere else on the internet apart from pirating sites.

I am beyond angry. I am sick and tired of animation as a medium being treated like shit. We are talking YEARS of animator’s lives being ripped away like they are nothing. This is a genocide of creativity. And as someone who has always dreamed of going into Animation, I feel like I have been shot in the chest. To say that this is disheartening is a gross understatement. It makes me want to throw up to see how my talent and the talent of artists like me and much better than me is treated like garbage.

Animators are not replaceable. You can’t just throw out works of art like this. Animation is such a personal and deeply emotional process, that seeing this purge is absolutely disgusting. I am enraged and scared and fucking PISSED OFF

I feel useless. Cartoon Network is probably going to die soon after this. And I feel like I can do nothing to stop it. This is mainly just a rant. But I am hoping that other people see this and get just as pissed off as I am.

We can’t let this happen

When I first found out about this I couldn’t believe it was real. As a fellow aspiring animator this makes me sick.

every writing tip article and their mother: dont ever use adverbs ever!
me, shoveling more adverbs onto the page because i do what i want: just you fucking try and stop me

May I add something, because I will never shut up about this book (Writing Tools by Roy Peter Clark):

So, what I'm getting from the trailer is that we get to see what Sora has been doing in the 1 year timeskip. There is a difference between 1 year and 7 days. Unless time is wonky, or Sora has been lost in space for a year.

And how will Sora be involved with these lost masters? It looks like he has been found by Sterlitzia, but is she connected to MoM?

Will MoM use Sora during the year, waiting for Riku to come to Quadratum and then use their connections to return to their right world?

Will Sora finally realize he doesn't need friends to be powerful? Our boy needs to realize his worth.

I'm too excited for this.

MASTERLIST:

This was meant to be a godamn sideblog and it’s taken over my life. But ok.

Also beware, I don’t tend to write fully, these are like, extremely detailed drafts (they do include detailed dialogue and things). Hope y’all enjoy :D

ALSO I’m fairly certain all of these contain curse words so…. you’ve been warned?

Any Trigger Warnings have been written just before the fic starts (if there’s something anyone wants me to tw: tag, or any I’ve missed out, let me know)

Check out This List of what I’m currently working on! (constantly updated)

I DON’T do reader inserts!

My Other side-blog, entertainment-recs, which is where I post Movie/TV Show/Music/Book recommendations!! Check it out and let me know what y’all think (on that blog of course)!!! :D

shout out to ace and aro kids who are constantly bombarded with the opinion that sex and romantic love are directly connected to living a happy life.

Y’all are just reblogging this at the speed of sound tonight

Since it’s almost valentines day, and this message is about to get hammered in even more, reblogging this again.

And it don’t mean anything wrong if you don’t subscribe to romance or sex, don’t mean your broken or anything like that.

Sex and romance don’t equal happy life, be you, be fabulous you.

Favorite Quotes from Yu-gi-oh GX (first few seasons of dub)

Chumley: If you don’t win, you’ll be on the next bus outta here. Jaden: Chumley, we’re on an island… bus?

Crowler: You try to expel one kid, and the entire world turns against you.

Chumley: Jaden! It’s awful! Chazz has disappeared! Jaden: And that’s awful, how?  

Jaden: And why how do you know that? Atticus Rhodes: Because I know her. And little Sis needs a helping hand with her love life! C'mon, he stole the Spirit Keys, just for *you*! Alexis: It’s times like this, I wish you were back in a coma. Zane: Anyone up for just tackling them?

Jaden: You think so? Thanks Chazz! Chazz: It’s sarcasm, moron. Jaden: Well, okay, but if you’re going to change your name, you could do a lot better than Sarcasm. Chazz: [wraps Jaden in a headlock] You know what I mean! 

Syrus: I can’t believe I got detention again! Mom’s gonna kill me. Jaden: [jerks a thumb at Chazz] Just blame Sarcasm back there. Chazz: [wraps Jaden in a headlock] The joke is old already!

(Burst Return has broken the Maiden in Love’s effect on the other Elemental Heroes) Avian: What was I thinking!? I didn’t want to get married! Sparkman: Oh, boy! SparkWoman’s never going to forgive me! Both: Guy pact! This didn’t happen, okay?! Burstinatrix: How about you 2 guys get over here right now, or I’ll tell the entire deck!?!

Pierre: Look Shepperd, I want to duel Alexis, and I’m not leaving until I do. Alexis: [enters the room] Well, you haven’t grown up too much. Pierre the Gambler: [looks at Alexis] My, *you* have.

Gravekeeper’s Chief: get down! Jaden: TOWARDS the sharp object? 

Dr. Crowler: A Vampire?! What’s next, the Boogie Man? *laughs* Who would believe something so ridiculous? ( The bat flew away and goes to Professor Banner’s room, decorated with garlands of garlic everywhere) Banner: Stay away! I know you’re out there. I have a huge horror movies collection! I know all your weak spots! (The bat has an anime sweatdrop)

Chazz: (removing his earplugs) Hey, morons, see these things in my ears? They’re called earplugs. Now start over. Jaden: Your key! It’s gone! Chazz: (finally noticing the destroyed door to his hiding place) What?! No! But how? Jaden: Those things in your ears? They make it so you can’t hear doors being kicked in!

Jaden: (To robot) Do you have a translation button?

Sartorious: After all, as a new student, I don’t want to attract too much attention… Hasselberry: Then get a new haircut! Sartorious: Touché.

Aster: Uh Syrus, does he realize that he’s reasoning with a psychopathic alien? Syrus: You know Jaden, he loves giving that friendship speech. 

Crowler: (about Jesse) This kid seems familiar… Bonaparte: That’s because he’s Jaden with a southern accent!

Aster: I hope Jaden knows what he’s dealing with. Jaden: (thinking to himself) I have no idea what I’m dealing with.

GX dub is a goldmine for this stuff! I love it! XD

And that’s without even speaking of the Lord and saviour of GX.

Reblogging again because I just realized that if I had this advice in high school I would’ve never made a tumblr account.

Also works for most of those news sites like WSJ or NYT that only let you read a little bit, or block adblockers. Also some disable the scroll bar but if you go to the right side of the console after hitting F12 and look for the CSS element “overflow” and change it from “hidden” to “visible” then you can continue scrolling for free. Might have to click around on different parts of the page to find it, but it should work.
