I, for one, am pretty stoked for what that show has to offer and I would be even without the misogynistic and homophobic shitstormthat gatekeeping dudebros created around it. It promises to be a good-looking, female-dominated action fantasy cartoon with interesting conflict. And it reboots an old show that had very little to offer other than being an almost identical He-Man spinoff with a bit more girly stuff.
In the era of never-ending uninspired reboots, Princesses of Power looks like it’s going to be one of those that takes imaginative spin on an old property and introduces new generation of watchers to an updated concept of a fantasy warrior women.
cats don’t know what words mean and i love that about them. i can say “you are a beautiful little angel child and i love you more than anything else in the entire world” but also “you wretched little clown bastard. you’ve created such a big mess and now i have to clean it because i have hands and you don’t. this is god’s cruelest joke.” and they don’t care they just say :3 and put their little paws on me
Hey wanna hear the most telling thing about me as a 17 year old dnd nerd
I made up a villian for a campaign that was a black dragon and his name was Oblivion of Roses.
Ok so our man Oblivion of Roses lived in a bog and pickled dead bodies in swamp water as black dragons do, but he was like… fancy about it.
His lair was this big network of caves that were half submerged under the swamp, and the entrance was hidden by like throng vines and liechens that had bright red flowers all over them, hence the moniker “of roses.” He had red flowers all over the place because he liked fancy things.
He had levels of Bard and would polymorph himself into an elf or human A LOT and had a whole band of goblins and lizard folk he’d like force to play like cabaret music for him all the time and they were like… basically his slaves because if they fucked up he’d like kill them and they were terrified of him.
Here is a simple rendition of a common scene inside Chateu Oblivion of Roses
So this was a really personal project for me, after listening to TAZ i wanted to do something to show my love and appreciation for it, as well as get the chance to say goodbye to all the characters again. Hopefully that comes across (wow this is truly the dorkiest thing I’ve ever done)
Anyway feel free to ask why i picked which character for each Tarot card (trust me i thought way to far into it) and please listen to taz if you haven’t already!
see, you see all your nasty thoughts as they pass by. you feel all those mean impulses; you catch every terrible thing you think about a friend, you have to watch yourself procrastinate on important stuff and be lazy when you feel like you should be working. you get front-row seats to all the awfulness that comes with being a person. and you only get that view of yourself, not of anyone else. so naturally, since you can’t see all the internal flaws in everyone else, it seems like they don’t have them–but you do.
the secret is that everyone has those flaws.
if being a good person is something you strive for–if you keep those nasty thoughts inside your head instead of directing them at other people, if you support your friends instead of pushing them down, if you try your best at what you do–then i promise you, you’re a good person. and even if you fail at that stuff sometimes, all it takes to be a good person is to keep trying.
there’s nothing any more bad about you than there is about loads of other people.
ask your friends if you’re a good person–when it comes to things like this, they probably see you more clearly than you do yourself. trust them. if they say ‘yes, of course’ then you’ll know you don’t have to worry. if they say no, you can ask them why, and then strive to change those things about yourself.
just remember that if it seems like everyone else is a better person than you, it’s only because you can’t see what’s happening inside them. trust me–everyone struggles to do the right thing sometimes. even steve.
you’re a good person. even if you don’t feel like it.
this is the most realistic sibling dynamic i’ve seen from tmnt yet. given the option, siblings will all absolutely sit at completely different tables from each other.
also: i have a hunch that they’ve broken into the mall to pirate wifi. which is very relatable.
