Much Ado About RWBY

@weissroseschnee

This is a blog of all the things I like, RWBY and otherwise. I don't often tag things, but I try and avoid spoilers for RWBY and things that are generally bad (like gore stuff). Header imaged from SAD-ist's Technoblade tribute video. Age 20+

DO NOT ENGAGE WITH BLUE CHECKS

Elon Musk is paying blue checks for ad revenue in the replies of their Tweets now. He is only paying "verified" accounts for this, even if the account in question has hundreds of thousands of followers.

Do not reply, quote-tweet, or retweet any posts made by a user with a blue check.

Spread the word. Quit Twitter.

Haggard and broken, Constantine drags his sorry ass back to the JL one day, fully beat to shit in covered in the weirdest acidic algae Flash has ever had the pleasure of veiwing under a microscope. When the Detective doesn't even fight not being allowed to smoke in the infirmary, the League knows something horrible is up.

It's Captain Marvel that Constantine opens up to first. "Have you ever stared down your ex's grandparent as he chokes you with a tree branch and tries to drown you in mud, but turns out his grandpa is some fuckin' eldritch plant abominatoin, mate?" No. In fact, Billy hasn't even dated anyone in his short short years of living. (Swamp Thing and Constantine are exes, and Undergrowth is not happy about it) Love you hun :>

Mellan I fucking love you.

Billy has no idea what to do with information but he knows what prime gossip material when he sees it.

Undergrowth going to Phantom like, "look. We don't get on, but this scumbag broke my grandkid's heart. I just want to go fuck him up a bit."

Danny just sighs and thinks. "Who is it then?"

Undergrowth growled angrily. "John Constantine"

Danny grinned. "Wait, the same Constantine who keeps fucking with Demons and making me have to deal with them? You know what. Go ahead."

Sam looking at this sighs. "Danny, that's going to bite you in the ass you know that right?"

Danny "You know. If it brings the League to Amity it brings the League to Amity. Not like we haven't called for help am I right."

Sam snorted at that. "Ah, so it's a twofold attack then. Good to know. If Superman gets possessed I am going to say I told you so."

Danny "I am aware that he probably will. Which is why I'm gonna ask Ember to do it first."

Sam started giggling. Oh that was a GOOD plan. "Ok, I see you pulled that plan out of somewhere. Been thinking about what happens if they find us?"

Danny grinned, sharp teeth showing. "Oh yes. I've had this plan in place for a while. And I've made plenty of deflectors as well. Figure Batman would appreciate my forethought."

Meanwhile Billy has told EVERYONE on the watchtower about John getting beat up by his ex's gramps. Which begs the question, which ex. And who was their gramps?

Listen

The Justice League aren’t gonna swoop in and get involved in Constantine’s bullshit

He really really really would not live it down

He only showed up for medical attention, Undergrowth fucked him right up

He INSISTS no one else get involved

Billy Batson is already half way to Amity for the Hot Juicy Gos

Captain Marvel looks… a lot like Superman

Ember’s already waiting and ready for a flying dude

She’s not expecting the Champion of Magic, who is either:

A) resistant to overshadowing, she bounces right out

Or B) is still awake and arguing with her inside his own head. She fully knows this is a kid she can see HIM

this is made more awkward by the fact that Constantine let Swamp Thing possess his body so swamp thing could sleep with his wife. Swamp thing fully possessed him to make a baby with his actual wife

like... just imagine you do all that and the your ex’s grandpa goes out of his way to beat him the fuck up.

Granted, Undergrowth is certainly not the first of his kind that Constantine has dealt with. Forever evil: Blight has Constantine and Justice league Dark dealing with the embodiment of all evil from within the collective human unconscious, so he could theoretically deal with undergrowth with a little help from his friends

Anonymous asked:

Can you tell me why Frodo is so important in lotr? Why can't someone else, anyone else, carry the ring to mordor?

but someone else could.

that’s the whole point of frodo—there is nothing special about him, he’s a hobbit, he’s short and likes stories, smokes pipeweed and makes mischief, he’s a young man like other young men, except for the singularly important fact that he is the one who volunteers. there is this terrible thing that must be done, the magnitude of which no one fully understands and can never understand before it is done, but frodo says me and frodo says I will.

(when boromir is thinking of how he can use the ring to defend gondor, when aragorn is thinking of how it brought down proud isildur, when elrond is holding council and gandalf is thinking of how twisted he would become, if he ever dared—)

but then there’s frodo, who desires nothing except what he has already left behind him, and says, I will take the Ring.

it is an offer made out of absolute innocence, utter sincerity. It is made without knowing what it will make of him—and frodo loses everything to the ring, he loses peace and himself and the shire, he loses the ability to be in the world. It’s cruel, the ring is cruel, it searches out every weakness you have and feeds on it, drinks you dry and fills you with its poison instead, the ring is so cruel.

and frodo picks it up willingly. for no other reason except that it has to be done.

(the ring warps boromir into a hopeless grasping dead thing, the power of the palantir turns denethor into an old man, jealous and suspicious, it bends even saruman, once the proudest of the istari, into a mechanised warlord, sitting in his fortress and bent over his perverse creations—all the best of intentions, laid waste)

but there’s a reason gollum exists in the narrative, which is to show—well, to show what frodo might have been. because even as frodo grows mistrustful and wearied, as the burden of this ring grows heavier and heavier, he is never gollum. he is gentle to gollum. he is afraid—god frodo is so afraid for 2/3 of these books he is so tired and afraid, but he keeps moving, he walks though it would pull him into the ground, because he asked for this, he said he would.

someone else could have carried the ring to mordor, I suppose. the idea of a martyr is not dependent on the particular flesh and blood person dying for some greater purpose. but such a thing has to be chosen, lifted onto your shoulders for the right reason, the truest reasons, and followed into the dark, though it would see you burnt through and bled out.

I will take the Ring, though I do not know the way.

y'know say what you want about tumblr (and I have), but this is still probably the simplest and most powerful distillation of the heart of the Lord of the Rings I’ve ever read. I think back to it all the time

Phineas and Ferb episode idea: After Candace shows her photos of all of her brothers’ creations, Linda thinks that her daughter is a talented graphic artist and signs her up for a competition. Candace is frustrated and about to tell her mom the truth but then Jeremy shows up and he’s like “Wow, Candace, I didn’t know you were a graphic designer. That’s so cool. Btw, my little sister is also gonna be at the graphic design competition.”

Long story short, Candace asks her brothers to help her become a graphic artist for real so she could beat Suzie.

Meanwhile, Doofenshmirtz has gotten tired of designing -Inators so he designed the Comes-Up-With-Inators-Inator to design them for him. The Inator’s creation are a hit among other Evil Scientists who buy them in droves. Doofenshmirtz is then signed by Vanessa to an Evil Contracption Designing competition (held in the same building at the same time as the graphic design competition, of course).

Desperate, he asks Perry the Platypus to help him get his mojo back so he could design -Inators again.

Cue musical montage of Doof and Candace training to learn/relearn their respective art form.

It’s the competition(s). Candace is a nervous wreck, but Jeremy believes in her. Doof is all self-assured and ego-boosted by everyone thinking he’ll win, but then he sees his Comes-Up-With-Inators-Inator (who looks like a robotic him) also signed up for the competition.

While getting ready for the competition, Perry is accidentally almost spotted by Phineas and Ferb. He sneaks behind the curtain to the behind the scenes. That’s when he discovers that the goal of the competition is to design a doomsday weapon. Nervous, he swaps the cards with those of the graphic design competition.

The competition begins. The graphic artists are assigned to design a doomsday weapon while the Evil Scientists are assigned to design a cool band poster.

The scientists are baffled, but they do their best. The Comes-Up-With-Inators-Inator is stuck because it’s physically incapable of drawing anything but Inators.

Meanwhile in the graphic design competition Candace does her best but her brain goes blank. Suzie meanwhile is trying to sabotage her by switching her card back with the card from the other tournament. Unfortunately it’s the card of the Comes-Up-With-Inators-Inator, who now goes to task designing a Doomsday weapon.

The competition is finished. Candace’s work is mediocre, but she wins by technicality for being the only one who drew the correct thing.

Meanwhile at the Evil Scientists competition, the scientists all drew terrible posters except Doof whose poster is beautiful. He’s about to be declared the winner but then the Comes-Up-With-Inators-Inator reveals what it’s been working on, a doomsday machine. Everyone panics, and Perry the Platypus tries to stop the machine, but fails. Then the machine ticks down to 0, and nothing happens.

Turns out the Comes-Up-With-Inators-Inator is terrible at coming up with machines. All of its Inators don’t work. Which unfortunately for Doof results in all of his previously happy customers showing up to complain because their Inators didn’t work either. He asks Perry to help him again, but Perry is already gone.

“There you are, Perry.” “Curse you, Perry the Platypus!”

Despite winning, Candace feels hollow because she only won by technicality and all of the other designers were much better than her. She feels like a fraud. But then Jeremy shows up and asks to buy the rights for her poster, because he thinks it’s really cool. Candace is happy.

The End.

Jeremy: I love the exploding moon in the corner

Candace *frowning*: It’s a flower

Ferb’s Line: Maybe you did design a doomsday weapon after all

I used to be obsessed with Phineas and Ferb.

Also I’m a good writer.

Oh, it was.

I would be ecstatic

The song is a homage to 80s sports montage songs like Eye of the Tiger and You’re The Best Around. The lyrics, to contrast, are about stuff like “use a ruler and compass” and “picking the right color”.

"The Artemis Centre is a platform where informal and non-academic conversations meet scholarly work and ongoing research developments. The Centre allows members who are interested in ancient goddess worship to browse research files, recent conference presentations, photo galleries, lectures presented online, and other information hosted by historical organizations, all in one place. New and on-trend collaborative projects such a podcasts, myth in film, media, and art, will also be available to members who will be invited to join workshops, short courses and interactive lectures that allow everyone, from all walks of life, to engage in learning without boundaries.

While there are many centers for learning that focus on goddess culture, or religious studies, none offer a collective approach to academic and experiential work. In our new and virtual world, it is important to have a space where academic and non-academic interests collaborate in a productive and progressive way.

This project is a work in progress, beginning this summer as a virtual platform for research, community development, symposiums on women’s history and religion, as well as offering courses and other forms of experiential learning. Looking forward, the center will grow into a real-world structure, where we will hold a safe, and open space, for all who are interested in ritual, myth and culture, as well as the intrinsic connection between the ancient world and our modern human experiences."

The Doctor

After years of fighting crime and being a hero, Danny decided that he wanted another profession, something else to do with his life. In the end he decided to be what he always needed: A doctor.

Thanks to Frostbite's teachings and help, Danny managed to become a successful and efficient doctor quickly (although he definitely hated normal medical school), with experience in all kinds of beings (from all kinds of dimensions, he couldn't just be a human doctor, what's the point on that?)

Since his universe didn't need a doctor for heroes and Frostbite was enough for the ghosts he decided to... be a traveler doctor, or something similar, help other dimensions. With the help of the Infinite Map he always traveled where "he was needed", and thanks to Clockwork he always escaped before they could question him.

The Justice League was very confused about who was randomly showing up to heal them. Sometimes by force. But Danny didn't care about the consequences, after all, they need him. And it's kind of funny that he's referred to as "The Doctor" in their files.

Im crying this is so god d* funny.

Is this weird dude; who’s always showing up and saving our lives and giving medical care we otherwise wouldn’t have been able to get, here to help us??? Is he on our side????

No. Maybe. Clearly this medic is dangerous and possibly plotting our downfall.

The level of self centered paranoia is immaculate. Just say thank you. I think after the third save it’s pretty obvious he’s just a mysterious Medic. Thats pretty ally like honestly.

@justwannabecat @memetic-trigger-hazard stop hiding your hot takes in the comments smh

[Video description: Four videos that have been stitched together; the first three are captioned. One: A lawyer in a suit says smugly, "I sued a 9-year-old kid and won!" Two: A bearded person sits outside and says ironically, "I challenged a nine year old kid to a basketball game and won." Three: A person wearing a yellow bandanna as a sweatband says dramatically, "I challenged a nine year old kid to a bench press competition, and won." Four: A (presumably) nine year old kid walks across a lawn, shaking their head slightly and sounding out of breath as they say, "I had the worst day of my life." End description.]

Headcanon that the real reason all the other Justice Leaguer's avoid Gotham is because there is a running joke with the Gotham press that every hero in Gotham is either Batman, or a Robin.

Superman stops an attack drone from burning down a city block?

NOPE! News headlines read "Is Robin's new ability to fly proof he's really a vampire??"

Black Canary busts a smuggling ring?

"Batman's second female Robin. Will she last longer than the first?

Green Arrow catches a bank robber?

"Green Robin's facial hair and exactly what citizens think about it, page 3."

obligatory welcome guide for redditors

A lot of the guides I've seen don't actually seem to understand how reddit works in comparison to tumblr so

  • your blog is basically your own small subreddit. some people curate this heavily to fit a theme, like a sub, most people don't
  • reblogs are culturally equivilant to upvotes but functionally equvilant to crossposting
  • there is an algorithm. it sucks and nobody uses it. turn it off in settings. everything is generally chronological
  • likes are functionally equivilant to saving a post
  • you've probably already seen this but change your icon and put something in your bio or people WILL assume you're a bot. personal info not required
  • generally, anything you would put as a comment on a thread should go in the tags or the replies of a post. only add comments in reblogs if you want it to become part of the base post
  • tags are mostly equivilant to flairs, used for organization and commentary
  • your dashboard is an aggregation of everyone you follow
  • there is an r/all equivilant(trending page) but it sucks and nobody uses it
  • our search also sucks. your best bet is using tumblr.com/tagged/[TAG] and not /search
  • there are no mods
  • by extension, reporting something doesn't put it in front of the mods, it sends it to staff, who may or may not do anything(usually they don't)
  • there is no karma, there are no karma limits. anyone can reblog anything, comment/reply to anything, or post in any tag
  • "reposting"(reblogging) old content doesn't matter. people can and will reblog the same post multiple times, including in a row
  • CAVEAT. reposting someones art(NOT reblogging, making a new post) is a dick move. i know this is commonplace on fandom subs but its not necessary here. everything you post should be [OC] unless you are reblogging. or posting shitty memes
  • we have our own sitelore, you'll pick it up
  • (though im not opposed to bringing some over from reddit)
  • our app also sucks. we do not have third party apps and any that claim to be are scams. sorry
  • for desktop, most people use the XKit Rewritten extension for QoL improvements and to revert shitty aesthetic updates, much like old.reddit
  • we have no idea where the porn rules are at either. add a mature content flag to anything you'd get fired for looking at at work, that's about it

finally, from the bottom of my heart, fuck u/spez

When you make your icon, do not make it be a photo of a sexy woman. Even if its entirely clothed. Even if you are a sexy woman. You will get blocked and reported as a bot instantly if you do.

i like this "bocchi" girl from the rock anime :)

that, or she swings so wildly that she spins, loses her grip, and she falls backwards into the crowd, who move out of the way so she falls flat on her ass, if not fully flat on the floor and passes out, while the guitar just slaps down on stage.
