"How am I supposed to learn from my mistakes?"

.... by facing consequences.

You can also avoid the consequences by learning from other people's mistakes.

i find it so interesting how people act like "critically examining a piece of media" is the opposite of "enjoying that piece of media." rip to you but i actually find it really enjoyable and compelling to dissect and think through the art i engage with

Considering wwx's canonical breeding kink and his general fondness for dubiously safe scientific experiments it is technically within the realm of possibility that a few years post-canon he just invents cultivation hrt and transition surgery by accident.

He just rocks up to a cultivation conference one day 5 months pregnant like "I turned my body into that of a woman! Yeah the boobs too we travel a lot and don't want a wetnurse. I'll reverse it in two years or so." And every single trans person and egg in the culivation world simultaneously sits up and goes "wait what?"

Imperical to understand that wwx still fully identifies as a cis man and does not know trans people exist. He did not know he was gay while actively being in gay love, this man is very smart but he doesn't know shit. Just a few weeks after the conference people start coming over like "hey... that thing you did... can you do that to me?" and he's like damn sure are a lot of dudes who wanna get pregnant. One day a "female" cultivator comes and is like "so you said you're going to reverse it... you think you can do that on a body that's already female? Turn my body into a man's body?" And he just goes well probably, let's find out!! It's so great all these people wanna help him perfect his techniques, isn't it lan zhan?

Years later they run into one of the trans women he first helped and doesn't even recognise her as she's thanking him and after the clarification just goes "wow! haha damn you're even wearing women's clothes! Should I start calling you guniang?" sort of as a joke but she's like yes please and he just says alright nice to see you again ma'am (still doesn't get it)

I saw tv glow is like YES the realization you are trans might implode your life and make the world you live in uninhabitable but that will happen anyway if you don’t do anything about it. if you retreat from your own needs and refuse to let yourself resurrect you’re still gonna run out of air and even the tv show that kept you alive at one point won’t be able to bring you back

After ending

woman who has read 100 manga: Berserk is truly a testament to what manga can achieve as an artform. Drawing influence from an eclectic array of sources spanning from the works of Riyoko Ikeda, to various mythologies, to the world of contemporary western film, to countless other works of art and fiction, the world Miura has created cannot be described as anything short of sublime.

im aware this is an insane thing to say but i fucking. love characters that are just cockroaches. and i dont mean like. gross i mean they just do not fucking die. they can survive anything. they will outlive EVERYONE because they just will not die no matter what be it because they have a reason or because they literally cannot stop surviving the odds i love it i love it

yesss bitch use your inability to stay dead against your enemiessss... make people afraid of the fact that you somehow keep getting up despite the entire onslaught of horrors i am leaning forward in my seat clapping my hands whooping and cheering

i'm crazy but im not even free so what's the point

Old Laughing Jack Sketch from a few months ago, I drew it on a very bumpy bus ride as are most of my traditional works, I hope it is enjoyable.

NATIVE CARBON DIOXIDE FOUND ON JUPITER’S MOON EUROPA

HOLY SHIT, IT'S HAPPENING! EVERYBODY STAY CALM!

For those confused, this combined with liquid water being there makes this the strongest evidence of alien life to date.

These are conditions shockingly similar to earth.

For anyone wondering, the reason Europa (as well as Saturn's Enceladus) is warm enough to have oceans is because of the tidal friction from the large gas giant right next to it. (Also why Io is constantly erupting, it's so close to Jupiter it can't stop) Any life on these moons could resemble the life we have in geothermal vents and sunless depths of our own ocean.

YOOOOOOOOO

IT LAUNCHED MONDAY

I am by no means an expert but it seems to me “your body does not belong to you” is a major theme of right wing authoritarianism and, interestingly, modern USAmerican thinking. This underpins so much from abortion to forcing kids to hug their relatives. Your body belongs to the state, or God, or your husband, or your boss, or your doctor. Everything from trans and gay liberation to forcing autistic people to look in your eyes to making cashiers stand for no reason. Your body does not belong to you, but taking care of your body is your responsibility and your responsibility alone, and if you fail in some way, you deserve the consequences.

hey if you call ICE on anyone for any reason whatsoever you should fuckin kill yourself.
