Apparently people think that making art for arts sake is different from fulfilling a self-centered want, as if all humans don’t a) have inherently self centered wants because clearly anything done to continue living is not at all self centered on a base level (despite the fact that this usually means suffering to other organisms and that includes other humans), and b) that any form of creativity is done for the sole good of giving to others (which, by the way, depending on how you parse it isn’t self-sacrificial by any means either and is usually still just as self-serving) and if you have any urge to want to make art for yourself and have fun you’re apparently bad on an intrinsic level, and if you enjoy the art others make about the same subject you’re even worse, somehow.

I’m sorry, have any of these people taking a class on rhetoric or philosophy, or anything that makes them USE THEIR FUCKING BRAINS?!? Away from the online space?!???

Babes it’s time to divorce yourself from the phone and live in the world around for a moment, because these were some very nonsensical inside thoughts you’ve had just now.

just so you know, you have some followers who enjoy/write fanfiction. not saying their urls rn bc i don’t wanna air out dirty laundry in public but if you want them so you can block and report, just say the word and i’ll dm you a list

You’re forgetting the part where they lived on land for a while, and then some of em said “naw fuck this I’m going back”

And then RE-EVOLVED AQUATIC ADAPTATIONS.

I’d personally like to think Trucy knew what Phoenix was asking and was like “sic ‘em pops” because if I’m honest I’d want to get back at the dude who threw my life into shambles in the most poetic way possible too. Especially if the person they threw into shambles with me took me in without a second thought and stepped up for me because I was vulnerable, even if they were also hurt in the process too. Especially in trucy’s case where she comes to see Phoenix as her real father, and Phoenix adores Trucy as his daughter.

“You forged evidence and used me? Well, oopsies! Looks like the evidence you wanted to use against us was forged as well! Silly me, silly papa, how in the world did that happen? Oh? I delivered it? Well how was I supposed to know that it wasn’t real, that’s not my job, I’m just a silly teenager!”

I also believe she is far too perceptive to have not figured it out.

Like yeah, it’s not the merciful, righteous, “truth is unveiled in court” reveal that Phoenix would have pulled off pre disbarment, and it’s certainly not moral or legal the way he outs Kristoph, which definitely shows how he’s lost a lot of faith in the law because at the end of the day it failed both himself and his daughter tremendously, and it also shows how he’s willing to Bend and break rules if he deems it necessary- which he kind of didn’t before- but those are like, the bitter, scorned reactions I expect from someone who was failed so terribly. Phoenix and Trucy were both hurt by Phoenix’s disbarment. They bonded together through that hurt. Lived with it. Suffered through and persevered. But that anger would still be there, bubbling under the surface. And an opportunity to get revenge on someone who hurt you in a terribly satisfying way? Ooo boy. I’d take it. I’d take it and run.

a pawn twice over

Okay not ragging on wearing seatbelts at all, DEFINITELY DO THAT, but I will say that I kinda do think seat belts are sexist. Mostly because cars were designed with male drivers in mind and to this day the majority of crash tests are conducted WITH male-only dummies- this has skewed the survivorship of male and female drivers, because women aren’t the the ones with the design in mind, they end up dying on a much more regular basis. (You cannot convince me no woman has ever been boob slapped at an ungodly force because an airbag wasn’t aimed correctly at her chest), I think that the seat belt’s design is just a vestigial remnant of that fact. Women are more likely to die in a crash as the driver, and it’s because cars aren’t usually being tested with female-designed dummies. (There’s a few around now, but this is still pretty new.)

I sincerely think that while unimportant (technically), the design of seat belts could definitely be modified for the comfort of all people while also being safe, if not even safer. Just cause it works doesn’t mean it can’t be better!

Also??? Breast amputation????? Girl- if car crashes resulted in male castrations the design would’ve been changed immediately. Don’t even play with me right now. Even if it’s survivorship bias that’s still a permanent and disfiguring injury that is by all means preventable by an improved design. No one gender or sex should suffer severe bodily disfigurement because they weren’t accounted for. That just isn’t ok.

And it’s not even just women this applies to. Would it kill us to actually cover the rough fabric in soft sleeves? I remember seat belts rubbing and even sometimes burning my skin as a child- because they don’t account for the kaleidoscope of people who will enter, exit, and use a seatbelt while in the car. Children are sensitive to that stimulus too. I don’t think parents of special needs children (or any children, for that matter) should have to go about replacing their car’s seatbelts because some Rich ass company decided to not improve a preexisting design because they want to hold on to their money with greedy grubby fingers. Kinda defeats the purpose of innovation if not a soul tries to improve at something.

What I’m saying is- safety devices like seatbelts are important, and they should absolutely be used and worn, but they can stand to be improved and updated to be better for everyone. Just because they work doesn’t mean their design was inclusive from the jump nor is it currently. Seatbelts working and seat belts having a rather unfriendly design for certain groups are both true statements that can coexist without either being wrong. But that’s something that is fixable. And it shouldn’t be ignored just because it works.

He still faked his death and ran away for a year but yeah he did in the end

"I can fix him"

Literally the only person, who ever managed that, was Phoenix Wright.

We really all just be living and vibing.

Quick reminder that you don't need a solid sexuality! You can just be in love! Or not be in love! Or have a gender! Labels are a choice, not a requirement. All you need to do is be someone you like being! If labels help with that, great! But they are not required. You don't owe it to anyone, so don't feel pressured to choose labels if they aren't your thing!
