Mathematicians(derogatory)

i don’t know if i’ve said this before but Phoenix is so insanely strong. He could fully carry Maya, Pearls, and Trucy all at once.

How is he so strong, you ask? Maya would just. Jump on him for no reason and he learned to catch her. Same with Pearls. Maya and Pearls have fallen asleep on the bus and he had to carry both of them into the apartment on his own. Maya on his back, Pearls in his arms. And he was able to not wake both of them up in the process

Miles doesn’t believe him when he mentions it. Or maybe he makes some off-handed comment about his strength because he isn’t outwardly buff. Phoenix just.. picks him up and Miles does not know how to feel

WHAT THE FUCK

Yes, the Tumblr Sexyman Dating Sim is real.

Sexyversity: Chapter 1 coming very soon.

YES SO TRUE THIS IS THE HC OF ALL TIME

I headcanon Cale as Aro/Ace because he calls everyone beautiful/handsome without hesitation but his thoughts never go beyond aesthetic attraction.

In WoS, Kim Namwoon is a character created for and based indirectly off of Kim Dokja. All characters of WoS are, of course part of this category in some shape or form, but Kim Namwoon most of all. He is, to the child Dokja, a source of inspiration, and what KidJa considers to be cool.

knw is chuuni because kidja is chuuni (a middle schooler through and through). knw doesn't care about adults or social status. he's not bullied. he has dyed hair and piercings and doesn't give a shit about anything. he's brash, unafraid to speak his mind, and confident. self-assured. he looks out for himself. he doesn't need to depend on anyone.

To a young Dokja, Yoo Joonghyuk was a father and older brother figure. He's strong and charismatic and the protagonist. Kim Dokja knew, better than anyone, that yjh was a character, that he could never truly be like yjh. Saying, "I'm Yoo Joonghyuk," is escapism. It's a refusal of reality. But Kim Namwoon? Kim Namwoon was someone that he could be; the sidekick in the shadows of the protagonist's light.

Of course, as Kim Dokja grew older, he began to feel ashamed of what was, essentially, an idealistic self-insert of what his younger self thought to be cool. In the fight against the Delusional Demon, kdj reveals that he resents Kim Namwoon for being a reflection of his past self.

Now, who else does KDJ resent? Who does he refuse to acknowledge?

Jang Hayoung.

Jang Hayoung is the second protagonist of WoS. She's cool and strong and enthusiastic and good at talking to people and better looking than yjh and and and—

And. She's a character that kdj actively asked tls123 to create. Possibly, the only character that he asked hsy to create. kdj says it himself—he's not comfortable being anything other than a reader. He has Opinions, sure, but he very rarely says how he wanted WoS to go (aside from, in the midst of yjh's suffering, asking whether yjh could have a happy ending). JHY is another ideal, the person the older Kim Dokja wishes he could be. Except for one thing. She's a girl.

JHY is, I would argue, a reflection of KDJ's own Internalised transphobia. He refused to perceive JHY as female because to do so would open up a can of worms that he's too repressed to deal with. If he accepts that JHY is female, then what does that mean for his own perception of what an ideal is? This is also mirrored by his own refusal to acknowledge that the Punisher is YJH right up until YJH transforms in front of him, despite everyone else pointing out that....it was kind of obvious.

Despite knowing that JHY would be a strong addition to KDC, she isn't part of KDJ's inner circle. JHY is sidelined for much of the novel, and she mentions that she's often excluded. Why? BC kdj tries his best to avoid her. Because he doesn't want to acknowledge her. Becauseeeeee she's a reflection of his past self's ideals.

qed.

You can, of course, choose to read kdj's transphobia as purely surface level, but you know. It's cooler my way 😎

Do they go to those furry conventions 

You know Shinzo Abe, the former prime minister of Japan who was shot dead on Friday??

Turns out the shooter did it because Abe had ties to a religious movement that bankrupted and ruined his family, because his mother was a follower who donated copious amounts of cash to the church

AND THE CHURCH?? IT WAS THE UNIFICATION CHURCH!! the church I was raised in, forced to attend until the day I moved out. I spent my whole youth despising the church and just longing for the day I was independent enough to cut ties with them forever. It was dreadful.

I’m so shocked, Jesus fucking Christ. Media outlets are still being somewhat quiet on the issue, and aren’t naming the Moonie movement quite yet - but if you read all the testimony it all points to being them
