"it's all in your head" correct! unfortunately I am also in there
honestly sometimes stories where characters have self awareness and solve their problems maturely can be really refreshing sometimes. and sometimes it feels like therapyspeak slop. intense stories where no one is capable of understanding themselves and act out in incorrect ways can be very fun. and sometimes it feels like contrived bullshit. whatever makes "a good story" is harder to make happen than just using the right kind of characters using the right words
haaate when i actually find advertisements funny. makes me feel dirty . makes me feel impure

nothing scarier than being a fan of a fic and then becoming mutuals with the author. like hi shakespeare. big fan of your fake dating au
“people who have never left their home towns are so small minded and boring” is something I wish we could leave behind because on one hand it’s an incredibly classist statement (what if they don’t have the money to leave? what if they have family obligations? why is the default to call them uninteresting when they didn’t have the funds or privilege to go to school or travel?) and on the other………….have we considered that some ppl are happy? that keeping roots in the soil you were born, staying in a community that nourishes you, isn’t embarrassing or shameful?
99.99% of rap haters have never even listened to rap. or if they have it's like one gangsta rap song & they treat the genre as a monolith and act like it's representative of every rap song ever. and well of course they are also just racist
Contender for funniest manga panel of all time
After the most recent one piece colorspread, where Zoro and Luffy have fun while competing with each other I was thinking of other official drawings where they compete.
Here are the ones I could find:
1. Zoro and Luffy running ahead of their friends and both are looking at each other on the cover of chapter 254:
2. They look like they are about to fight ( or maybe not) while they ride huge chickens on the cover of chapter 352:
3. They are knights and they are jousting on the cover of 387:
Bonus! One of Oda ideas for the cover of chapter 1047 was Luffy and Zoro fighting:
My favorite SBS Oda answer is when somebody bafflingly asked him "why is Nami so mean to Caesar" so he had to be like "...Because he fucking sucks. And he deserves it. Did you actually read Punk Hazard."
He said are you not paying attention? This guy stinks.
Oda's level of animosity towards his own creation is truly inspiring. It's beautiful.
this 4kids comp has me fucking crying. idk what's more funny, zoro's animal noises, "you're toast and I'm the toaster," or sonic giving luffy his straw hat
The new Wallace and Gromit being about the fine line between technology as convenience and technology as a replacement for joy all whilst being stop motion animated, the most labour intensive and loving animation style we have right now… yeah
One of my favorite Sanji headcanon's is that he has the best sea legs of the crew, tied w/ Jimbei after he joins. But he also absolutely has the WORST land legs when they make landfall.
I think this because, prior to Kamabakka, the longest period he spent on actual land seems to be starving on a rock with Zeff.
I totally buy that Germa likely had some sort of stabilizing tech on their snails, definitely in medical and engineering areas. You need a measure of stability in your evil laboratory.
But any ocean-going vessel does need to actually move with the sea. Otherwise, it won't move at all. So, I think other areas were less stabilized.
Thus, Sanji went from weird snails that swim the seas, to cruise ship, to trauma rock, to a restaurant ship before joining the Straw Hats. Moving on a ship likely feels more natural to him than on land.
I think he has trained himself to adjust pretty quickly, as a necessity, and also because the Mosshead definitely would call it out. But even still, his first few steps on any island are not as graceful as his usual stride.
Okay, ramble done.
