Fellow dragon aces (and aros who like dragons) what's your favorite dragon?

Mine's probably between Xeno'jiiva or Namielle from Monster Hunter: World Iceborne. Durneviir Skyrim is up there also

I can proudly say that I have an old truck parked near my home with "russian warship, go fuck yourself" graffiti on it

Literally no English-speaking people know this so I wanna share because I think it's the funniest shit ever

Y'know the quote "russian warship, go fuck yourself" that a Ukrainian guy said on the Snake Island? It became very popular among Ukrainians and was referenced in many other countries.

Ukrainians designed lots of merchandise with it, like stamps and patches, a lot of which was directed at charity early on. Then somebody made this:

The design aims to make the word "go" resemble the Ukrainian trident (coat of arms)

However, at some point people started using it without the russian warship part a lot more often. So I present to you this "patriotic mug", "patriotic pendant", and a "patriotic pillow" all of which say "go fuck yourself"

the full phrase was also very commonly displayed on billboards uncensored... there were a lot more important things to worry about other than keeping street ads appropriate lol

I feel like saying "idi nahui" lost all its offensiveness idk when I hear it I think of the meme 💀💀

I know a lot of people in the fandom have been disappointed that the recent chapters haven't been TwiYor-centric or even Forger family centric lately but...

... but the reality is (in the Spy x Family universe) is that the war didn't just affect Twilight and Yor, it affected a whole lot of other people. The war stole a lot from them; livelihood, wealth, families, and the possibility for a future happiness.

And because Twilight and Yor hated so much what happened to them, they don't want another person to go through what they did. Preserving the peaceful lives of other people is what motivates them to be the best person in their respective jobs.

To all protesters in Sakartvelo I hope you are well and I hope you will succeed

🇬🇪 Happy Independence Day to Georgia, where people continue to protest against foreign agents bill

Thank youuuu

As I'm approaching my finals, I have to summon the strength of my favorite stem girls

my take on talia is that she is as unhinged as mischa. look, all we know about her is that:

• she and mischa were, quote, mad passionate online lovers. on facebook and twitter. in ukrainian. was it like а-ах мішенька не зупиняйся🥵 or more of a *ніжно цілує твої губи під пісні вокарчука*??

• she found him through his youtube channel called bad egg and wrote mostly positive feedback on his video. the girl spends her free time watching badly autotuned music videos about booze and bitches. she probably makes them too

• she styles her hair like julia fucking tymoshenko. not just that this hairstyle is super hard to make, but also what sane person would chose to resemble tymoshenko??

• she agreed to marry mischa (or mb even proposed herself) at the ripe age of 18, upon never seeing him irl and probably knowing him for less than a year if not a few months

• she consciously shortened her name from natalia to talia. this was, for all i know, never done before. also talia means waist in ukrainian so there’s that

• and her middle name (?) is legit made up. were her parents pranksters by any chance? cause the fuck is moruska

• did i mention that she choose MISCHA BACHINSKI?? i mean who wouldn’t but still

verdict: she and mischa had to be separated because keeping them on one continent could’ve resulted in irreparable consequences such as everyone starting to use bro as a pronoun and dying of prolonged exposure to swagness

He might have had some flashbacks

Also Martha - Becky - Henderson are kinda my second favorite trio

confused arospec & fed up arospec

I have so many thoughts about each of them, but I can't put them into words. I just love them so much. I just love characters that defend importance of platonic love, especially in romance genre. I just love characters calling out bullshit of "you can't be close friends with opposite sex". I just love them so much

I wanted this post to be funny haha meme, but I'm not normal about them

If I had a nickel for every media that I liked that has

- an emotionaly constipated orphaned man who works undercover to save the world and insists on doing everything on his own;

- the man adopts a child for plot reasons and that child kinda forces themselves onto them, and they are a fan of their secret job, and the man kinda uses the child for their job;

- and the man meets a woman that is a badass but also very sweet and more emotionally intelligent than the man, and becomes part of their found family;

- and the man has a parental figure who helps him save the world;

- oh and it's a perfect action-found family-comedy combination...

I would have two nickels, which isn't much but it's weird that it happened twice

Where are you sitting?

I was scrolling my gallery and found this piece of art. I'm laughing crying

This is how it went in manga, right?

SxF playlist pt. 1

So I've been collecting songs for my spy x family playlist for a month now. And since today we don't have new chapter I will rant about some of this songs here

1. Foo Fighters - Waiting on a war

This song right here describes all spy x family setting and Twilights story. Because peace between Ostania and Westalis is shaky and nobody can actually guarantee that it will last. And while civilians may live more or less peacefully, Twilight is always waiting on the war. But he knows that there's something more than that in life and with Forgers he has chance to have it

2. Hozier - Like real people do

I just needed Hozier song, because TwiYor have very Hozier romance. "I will not ask you where you came from" - is pretty much current state of Twilight's relationships with Yor and Anya. He knows they are odd but he will not ask them in fear of finding out. And both Twilight and Yor feel more like tools than actual people, but since they started Forger family they learn more about what "real people do"

3. Tember Blanche & Moisei - Ти лиш людина

This one's in my mother tongue (Ukrainian). For me it perfectly captures the feeling of the 86 chapter.

Chorus translation:

Show me your weakness, I don't ask you anything more.

If you are only human, then how can you live without fear?

Let's just say I can't wait fo Wheeler arc to be animated, because I have a vision for a really cool amv

4. Rainbow Kitten Surprise - Cold love

This one hard to describe. It has post reveal and opening up to each other vibes. It also has first joined mission gone wrong vibes. But most of all it has we are the same and we understand each other vibes. (Maybe I'll write songfic based on this. When I learn how to write hehe)

5. Rina Sawayama - Chosen family

Just a sweet song about opening up and found/chosen family. Very Forgers)

PS: I really need good songs for Anya and Yor. Especially Yor, since most of her playlists have femme fatale vibes, that don't suite her character.

If you have any recommendations PLEASE leave them in comments

They are so dramatic, I can't

Also Martha and Hendrerson actually danced!!! Now I can live happily!!

Kinda wish there would be more Twilight and Anya in this chapter but it's okay, I believe we will get it soon

I feel like they would be friends

Yeah, first graders flirting game is fun. But I'm much more interested in those two having enough relationship history to be like "Oh, I forgot to thank you for your help. Mind helping again?"

Also "Isn't it just like you"... They are my brotp, I can't

If I had to choose my favorite character from spy x family it would be this guy

1. He has funny and chill uncle energy

2. He's so underrated it's painful. He doesn't even have a name or codename(

3. He clearly worked in WISE for a long time, but still is impulsive as hell

4. He asked Twilight for a fuckin drink after Wheeler ark (the most dangerous mission they all had since the beginning of Operation Strix)

(Also am I the only one who sees the uncle teasing his angsty nephew about his first crush? No one else? Alright)

His comment about marital problems makes me think he had a family at some point and understands Twilight's inner conflict

Like here he clearly was both serious and teasing about tearful reunion. He suggested it seriously, because he understands that Twilight wants it deep down (He even calls Anya his girl). But he also teases the hell outta Loid for being in denial

5. He's the only agent that isn't afraid of Handler. He's even confident enough to argue with her and scold her in front of other agents. And honestly I feel like Silvia holds a lot of respect for him despite those arguments. It would be very interesting to know their history (not like we gonna have it in canon, they are too minor characters)

6. He seems to have this relaxed kind of wisdom that balances with his impulsive reactions

Thanks for listening to my TED talk

Hi. Not to be depressing on this tag especially just after New Year. But I was reminded of something that bothered me in 35 ch. Spy x Family

WHY THE HELL would you sleep under windows if there's a big possibility of air raid or bombing?

Here's piece of information I hope yall will never have to use:

Taping your windows isn't 100% guarantee!!

It does help with some light shards or not really strong shok wave. But if it's something more serious the glass will break. The tape helps to make less pieces of glass and make them bigger, but you also have to tape frame of the window for the effect, otherwise it's no use.

If you know for sure that will be bombing DON'T sleep under window. There's no guarantee that window or even wall will survive. You want to have at least 2 walls between you and the street, so if outer wall breaks, inner wall would protect you. If you can't go to shelter you need to go to some hallway or bathroom (any inner room really).

Sorry for rant. Have a nice day guys

Anya: I want a younger sibling!

Loid: If we see one on sale.
