It's Very Surreal To See Posts About Palestine Dwindling Down After The Ceasefire. Israel Is Still Blocking

hey by the way for the record, there is functionally no difference between most gendered products. womans shampoo just has more floral scent options than mens. womens razor blades are just colored pink. a purse is a bag

this is inspired by an actual post i saw on the r/ftm subreddit genuinely asking if it was SAFE to use men’s shampoo before being on t for fears of it BURNING HIS SKIN??

I forgot to post that doodle!!! Also a preview of a thing i was doing on monday but i’ll probably never finish it unless i have a lot of free time.

Flower explanation under read more

Stargazer lily: Made in 1978 by cross-pollinating Asiatic and Oriental lilies, it was named "stargazer" as a nod to how the flowers are pointed toward the sky, like they're looking at the stars. Flower meaning: hope, persistence, success

Green hellebore: The scientific name is Helleborus viridis. The flower's meanings are good fortune, prosperity, health, and rebirth. I went with red stargazer lily for Hiroto's birthday, so I gave Midorikawa a green flower

Baby's breath: Flower meanings are sincerity, purity, and love. Though the only reason I chose the flower for Tachimukai was just because it has the word "baby" in the name

Christmas rose: A type of hellebore often used to symbolize Jesus and Mary. It also symbolizes purity and is carved on churches' confessional booths (though I chose this flower for Fubuki just because it's white and Christmas related)

my ass forgot to post a version with Kidou's glasses off

Shin Teikoku Sakuma piece from 2024 when I was trying to analyze Sakuma's feelings in the arc (I keep forgetting to repost it outside twitter, oops)

Explanation under read more

The idea for the piece is to convey what Sakuma actually felt in the arc. What the aliea meteorite did was amplifying his negative emotions and converting them to hunger for power. Like how Kazemaru originally only started seeking power in a bout of deteorirating mental health; Sakuma (and Genda) only seeked the meteorite because he felt that Kidou abandoned him / them because they weren't good enough. So the idea here is to convey sorrow.

Unfortunately I'm very bad at writing analysis post in Tumblr's blogpost format as I'm very used to Twitter and Bluesky's thread style of writing; so I perhaps will revisit and rewrite this explanation.

Sakuma with covered eyepatch

Based on this frame from the end of episode 38, after he came to his senses:

The windows

Sakuma is wearing the same patient outfit as he did in episode 37's flashback

The sequence of closing the curtains is to express "closing one's heart off" (accepting the meteorite, going back to Kageyama, cutting ties with Kidou; etc etc anything works LOL). Also a reference to how Fudou entered their hospital room from the window lmao.

The eye

Should be self explanatory. It's also a reference to eye as a common symbolism used in Sakuma's character, which... he has... because Kidou himself has eye motif. gay ass.

me @ my mutuals

i just got to the FFI arc and i wanna believe sakuma absolutely rants about how much fudou pisses him off to genda during breaks

Sometimes I love the internet, actually. Incomprehensibly huge place but also so small. Saw a video on Instagram where Crayola was announcing they’re coming out with a box with some limited edition previously retired colors, including Dandelion. This video had hundreds of comments and almost all of them where “omg where’s the dandelion crayon girl she’s going to be so happy” and it was such an unimportant thing, but it was just cute
