why is it that someone gently saying "hey hey whoa" while another person is crying like the most intimate and comforting thing

me after i post my opinion to tumblr.com and omegaverse-obsessed-otaku with a picrew icon responds with "no. you know what? no. fuck you"
So...did u get deja vu?
modern empath crisis of faith
johnny refusing valentine's deal of bringing back gyro was his ultimate act of selflessness and in another world if johnny was as selfish as he was at the beginning he would've accepted immediately. but a world like that could never exist in the first place because johnnys undying love and devotion for gyro is what made him selfless in the first place
The Chinese dad with a theory that sounds genuinely spot on.
Personally? I refuse to get over the fact that Monkey D. Luffy, one of the most fearless, reckless, tough, impulsive, fight-happy, determined, rough, hopeful characters I have ever seen in fiction, does not have a fight reflex when he is legitimately afraid.
He has a freeze reflex.
You know how few protagonists have a freeze reflex?
You know how many One Piece characters have a fight reflex? It's probably most of them (Ace, Zoro, and Kid are pretty notable examples). And after that, flight is probably next (Usopp, Nami, etc).
But Luffy has a freeze reflex. Consistently. Sure, he's learned to push through it, to snap out of it, but when he's really truly scared? It's like he's seven and helpless all over again, and he can't move. Just for a second.
Oda's commitment to making One Piece accessible and affordable for his readers is admirable
theres a phenomenon that happens on here i have been calling "normalize loving parents posting" which is when you spend a lot of time on tumblr and are exposed to a lot of one specific counter-cultural narrative day in and day out until you start to forget what the dominant ideas are for most of the human population and thus feel the need to "defend" things that are widely accepted and popular. it's called this because of the time a bunch of text posts about shitty dads were circulating and then people with good relationships with their dad didn't feel included enough and started making "uhmmm can we normalize loving parents? not everyone has a deadbeat dad, MY dad is great" type posts, seemingly forgetting that good relationship with dad is a cultural norm that is expected and encouraged. i think its good practice, especially when im annoyed, to stop before i hit the post button and ask myself if this is a real issue or if im normalize loving parents posting. because often im about to try to normalize loving parents
nothing sadder than a piece of media making a girl who clearly more than anything else should be a dyke and then going out of their way to make sure the audience knows how interested in men she is. many such cases
Oh boy I can't wait to see what kind of posts are in my favorite character's tag! :D

You missunderstand me, I think of them all like exotic birds I must care for and observe.
the way rats flock to him is a sign of the kindness at the core of sanji's being!!!!!!!!! + i love that sanji thinks of the memory fondly
You might be frustrated by the library never having a complete manga collection on its shelves at any given time, but the 12 year old checking out 14 volumes of One Piece at once is vital to the library ecosystem. He's like the sea otter keeping the kelp forest from being devastated by an excess of sea urchins.
Whenever I talk about whatever media I’m into at the moment imagine I am presenting the characters to you like this
quick linguistic history lesson. the term “woke” originates from african american communities to describe being “awake and aware” of the current sociopolitical climate. this term has been used since at least the 1930s. it wasnt until 2014 during the ferguson protests that the term entered the wider vernacular. mainly as a result of black twitter. and as is common with many things coined by the black community. it was repeated and commercialized to death to the point where now most people only using it mockingly. including people on the left. the point is. “woke” is not a bad word. the alt right wants it to be one.
hey when you make posts, i just want you to know, thou/thee/thy/thine/ye are like he/you(object)/your/yours/you(subject) okay? "thou art wearing shoes," "i will wear shoes for thee," okay?
you say thine if the next word starts with a vowel and thy if the next word starts with a consonant and they both mean "your" so "thine own shoes," "thy shoes," okay?
and ye means you and refers to the subject of a sentence, "ye members of the brotherhood of shoes," okay? you need this information to create better knight yaoi. i'm personally more interested in nun yuri but we are a community
Luffy blatantly eavesdropping in the Baratie kitchen is so fucking funny to me. Dude was breaking plates left and right and trying to learn about his new cook.
