the sun

and MARS

Congrats on winning, Martyn!

i'm so insane about this series, omg

(The MARS theory by @b1odeuwed)

Oh they're the bad boys?

What are they bad at?

Surviving?

In honour of what will probably be the limited life finale tomorrow.

Here’s the mean gills made out of perler beads in the style of stardew valley characters

(I also made the bad boys a weekish ago)

im listening to tma for the first time with a friend! 

The thrilling sequel

What do you think they’re looking at?

Some B-Plot that I feel was missing from the movie. XD

Finally saw the movie!! I LOVE IT!!!! 

curses still intact:

jimmy dies first

tango dies in a silly, anticlimactic and pointless way

grian is responsible for his loved ones dying (<- DEBATABLE actually we’ll get back to it)

curses broken:

scott always is the last survivor of his loved ones

tnt minecart traps never work right

grian is responsible for his loved ones dying (<- the jimmy thing is SO INDIRECT compared to prior seasons okay)

proposed new curse:

if impulse makes it to the end, he’s betrayed before he can make it any further.

Not gonna lie, I think the lack of fandom consensus over the symbol of Martyn’s victory makes a lot of sense in-universe.

Martyn won by being independent. He lied, betrayed, killed, and prioritised himself. He knows this is a death game, is fed up of it, and goes for it.

This isn’t some sappy poetic end in which love and friendship win. We don’t get a coherent continued narrative of the sun, the moon, the stars because Martyn took that narrative thread and chopped it. He wanted to win. He just wanted it to end.

Martyn is the sea, everchanging and salty. He’s also the woods, fresh and green and lively. He’s Mars, a warrior for his red planet. He’s a meteor, crashing and burning. He’s everything all at once, like how he goes everywhere and meets up with everyone. He’s everything, but at the same time, he’s the void. Space. He’s nothing.

But then again, he doesn’t fit in. There’s no poetic end that everyone can instantly agree on. It’s divisive. Martyn caused that.

Who wants a Bowuigi standee? 👀

EDIT:

You can buy it here!

😳

Jimmy went ham and went crazy on trying to kill Scott, wanting that extra couple of minutes to live, he went to kill Scott before tango

Yeah yeah but wait THERE IS MORE

When the rest of the server was hunting tango cause he’s the last green, Jimmy didn’t even say a word and just spectated from above, not caring for the time anymore (Martyn got Scott’s time btw)

He was fixated in killing Scott for time screaming that he didn’t get it, and yet didn’t bother to hunt down tango with the others

I don’t even think Jimmy put up the pufferish of peace on the frame that Scott gave him in limited life

Every time Scott has dismissed ignored or teased jimmy is playing in my head and every time tango praised him and showed kindness to jimmy is also running through my head

this is my last night going on and on about why simply Team Rancher

It's so funny and so them that the first time Mumbo, Grian and Scar tried to do the cinematic scene Scar came super late, died, then in process of laughing about Scar Mumbo also died. They are so dumb (affectionate)

I've just realized Jimmy has had the most funerals out of anyone of the life series I think. Scott gave him a grave in 3rd life, in Double life there was a ceremony held (even if it was to make fun of him) and he was buried next to Tango + the warden. And now in Limited Life he's been given a grave right next to Judge Judy and executioner.

The only time he was never given a grave was in last life when the southlands were mostly broken up and grian went off chasing after mumbo right afterwards. Rarely does anyone in the life series get a gravestone, get to be buried. I guess it's at least one nice thing about being first out, everything is still on the verge of friendliness and there's time to bury the dead.

The Owl House said:

Fuck redeeming a terrible human being for the sake of redeeming them/"it's a kids show of course everyone gets redeemed" trope

Fuck redeeming an abusive parent

Fuck "all magic's gone" trope

These characters worked so hard and went through so much of course they're going to get rewarded

Found family and birth family

Gay rights

I'm going to miss this show so much

New Crow Time [I'm the artist. Not a repost.]

Not beating the playground scuffle accusations. These are literally children on a dirt hill yelling at each other.

The LGBTQ community has seen controversy regarding acceptance of different groups (bisexual and transgender individuals have sometimes been marginalized by the larger community), but the term LGBT has been a positive symbol of inclusion and reflects the embrace of different identities and that we’re stronger together and need each other. While there are differences, we all face many of the same challenges from broader society.

In the 1960′s, in wider society the meaning of the word gay transitioned from ‘happy’ or ‘carefree’ to predominantly mean ‘homosexual’ as they adopted the word as was used by homosexual men, except that society also used it as an umbrella term that meant anyone who wasn’t cisgender or heterosexual. The wider queer community embraced the word ‘gay’ as a mark of pride.

The modern fight for queer rights is considered to have begun with The Stonewall Riots in 1969 and was called the Gay Liberation Movement and the Gay Rights Movement.

The acronym GLB surfaced around this time to also include Lesbian and Bisexual people who felt “gay” wasn’t inclusive of their identities. 

Early in the gay rights movement, gay men were largely the ones running the show and there was a focus on men’s issues. Lesbians were unhappy that gay men dominated the leadership and ignored their needs and the feminist fight. As a result, lesbians tended to focus their attention on the Women’s Rights Movement which was happening at the same time. This dominance by gay men was seen as yet one more example of patriarchy and sexism. 

In the 1970′s, sexism and homophobia existed in more virulent forms and those biases against lesbians also made it hard for them to find their voices within women’s liberation movements. Betty Friedan, the founder of the National Organization for Women (NOW), commented that lesbians were a “lavender menace” that threatened the political efficacy of the organization and of feminism and many women felt including lesbians was a detriment.

In the 80s and 90s, a huge portion of gay men were suffering from AIDS while the lesbian community was largely unaffected. Lesbians helped gay men with medical care and were a massive part of the activism surrounding the gay community and AIDS. This willingness to support gay men in their time of need sparked a closer, more supportive relationship between both groups, and the gay community became more receptive to feminist ideals and goals. 

Approaching the 1990′s it was clear that GLB referred to sexual identity and wasn’t inclusive of gender identity and T should be added, especially since trans activist have long been at the forefront of the community’s fight for rights and acceptance, from Stonewall onward. Some argued that T should not be added, but many gay, lesbian and bisexual people pointed out that they also transgress established gender norms and therefore the GLB acronym should include gender identities and they pushed to include T in the acronym. 

GLBT became LGBT as a way to honor the tremendous work the lesbian community did during the AIDS crisis. 

Towards the end of the 1990s and into the 2000s, movements took place to add additional letters to the acronym to recognize Intersex, Asexual, Aromantic, Agender, and others. As the acronym grew to LGBTIQ, LGBTQIA, LGBTQIAA, many complained this was becoming unwieldy and started using a ‘+’ to show LGBT aren’t the only identities in the community and this became more common, whether as LGBT+ or LGBTQ+. 

In the 2010′s, the process of reclaiming the word “queer” that began in the 1980′s was largely accomplished. In the 2020′s the LGBTQ+ acronym is used less often as Queer is becoming the more common term to represent the community. 

Do you think dad titan cried when he saw king announce he wanted eda to adopt him? Do you think he was happy that his son found a family he was unable to provide? When king said the famous "I'm so glad to have had you as my sister" do you think dad Bawled his eyes out and continued to watch both king in the isles and luz in the human realm? I bet he shipped lumity before it became official and I bet he also watched hunter since his golden guard days and watched him develop into the sweet nerdy guy we know. I bet he watched the owl house just as closely as we did and was rooting for our favorites the whole time and that makes me happy

The Owl House was cancelled

That is something you guys need to remember. This show was cancelled. There was so much content that we were supposed to get but didn't because a few Disney execs decided that their best show since Gravity Falls wasn’t good enough to keep on their platform.

You have to understand, Dana didn't want this. We were supposed to have more. We were supposed to see how Hooty and Eda met, Caleb when he was alive, Darius's mentor, the Hagside kids, Manny, more Gus centered episodes, the Bat Queen's holder, more of Raine and Eda's relationship, etc.

But because only a few Disney execs decided that this show was too gay… oh, sorry “wasn't their brand'' they cancelled it.

You absolutely have the right to be mad. But do not direct that hatred to Dana or The Owl House. Disney is your enemy.

Help finding a favorite artist?

the question of free will is a common one. i think everyone has contemplated it at oen point or another. when once put on the spot to explain my own view of it, i came up with the answer: "everyhting you do is a true, genuine choice. it's just that, because of the circumstances of the universe, you'd never pick anything else than what you ended up with". which might seem like a load of paradoxical nonsense, but to simplify it, let's go with a metaphor. you get to choose between two meals, one of which contains an ingredient you really don't like. you pick the other one - not because you had no choice, but because the circumstances are that you don't like the other and would never eat it. at least that's the closest i can get to explaining it

i think that, if i were an avatar, the web might be the most likely. i think it's the only one i'd ever give myself up to voluntarily, at least. the web is interestring, because it's presented as a lot more aware than all other entities, but, i mean, is it? does it really do any more than provide power to its avatars? it's tricky, but i honestly don't think the web has any more consciousness than any other entity. maybe the ability to make it apear like it does, but no true, actual thinking

annabelle is really interesting in that case, because she's sort of a driving force in this all. hell, even her own free will can be put into question, because i don't think there's anything that really implies she's exempt from the manipulations of the web. it's hard to know whether she's a proper instigator, or just the middle man between the web and the rest of the world. she's so well spoken and eloquent that you don't get that impression, but i think that very much could be the case

I will forever be upset that we were deprived of so much owl house content

Love the idea that in universe fanon changes the way the Minecraft people look. Doc wakes up in crocs one day, nods, smiles, and carries on. He's a little less reserved when he wakes up a quadruped, but it's kind of cool.

Jimmy, meanwhile, wakes up with fledgling wings after Last life. They take a while to fledge, and he thinks the colour might change. The whims of the universe are odd, after all. No. He wakes after Double life with the bright yellow feathers that had grown in throughout the sessions, and sobs for the soulmate he lost. No longer does he hear whispers across worlds. No, now he can tell before someone dies. Never enough to prevent it, only enough for it to hurt. He sees Tango again and tastes death on his soul fire hair.

Some people change by their dream. Gem, for instance, is equally comfortable with horns and hooves or with butterfly wings.

Grian sobs as his wings, once a relief, brightly coloured and so, so different to the monochrome of the downside up, give way once more to purples. Tears fall from a thousand eyes forced open, watching.

Joe is delighted when, for a brief month, he sees through rainbow eyes. They fade, but turn up on Tuesdays and Rain days.

Cleo sighs the first time her arm falls off, and searches for Grian for sewing advice, remembering a disconcerting era of plastic eyes and floppy bodies.

Some folk barely notice. What's the difference between being something that looks like a normal guy but isn't, and being a normal guy? Aesthetically, not much. Sometimes, they can't tell until they smile and people flinch, until they take their helmet off and choke, until the disguise they painted for themself refuses to come off.

Zedaph, comfortably a sheep, wakes up in bed disoriented after a particularly surprising shrieker stack. The potential consequence of a shock to prey animals hadn't occured to him before... It would make a great Zedvancement.

annabelle cane nd martin bff agenda yes or yes?

Absolutely. However Annabelle and Mike do compete for the bff status.
