Nimona (the movie) | opinion

hi future me here. i cant BELIEVE i never made a post about it?? I JUST HAD IT SITTING WRITTEN DOWN

\/ thoughts from right after watching it below

i just watched nimona

i genuinely dont like ambrosius, and its just one of those things like 'yeah, okay, the ship is fine. but i dont approve of it'

he just. you dont trust your crush/partner, okay. it was blatantly obvious it wasnt intentional but okay, whatever, blame him. and then it happens a second time, believing the obvious bad guy WHO we KNOW and theres PROOF did the bad thing and blaming the other person. well, jeez buddy really dont like you. and then they get together in the end and i just. okay. thats fine, gay representation. but also fuck you id prefer an ending where the guy appreciates it, but breaks it off, because you just cant heal from that lack of trust, yknow? their relationship isnt the same, and i wish it wasnt just all made better with a kiss and stuff ughhhh

work skins

using work skins for the first time

my god guides are a godsend

i was so confused for the longest time but NOW i get it? you have to do the things ON the skin

and thus whats on the skin will reflect on the fic. aghhh.

fucking godsend oh my god

work skins are hard. and complicated. but also not that bad? but oh my god. id send a flopping on bed gif but i have no clue how to do that

it was fun to read though? you do kind of have to do your own research if you want to do something more specific or want to understand why something is a certain way, etc etc-- honestly it was a little interesting to read about how font families worked? cause i didnt know how it was formatted and was afraid of breaking it, but its like. it looks for the font on your pc, and if it isnt there, then itll look for the next font, and then the next and etc etc.

very fun. but i also cant tell if its worth it. well, ill see when i do something painstakingly long like, say, formatting out a text conversation and suffering when i do something wrong like a dumbass lmfao.

i talk

im just noticing it now but its not just me??? other people confuse grimmauld place with grimmauld palace which i have no idea why, genuinely, but i stumble on it too like a dumbass. and people who watched the movies probably wont feel the same (looking at the pic on the wiki, really not a palace)

although i guess. if you were reading a book and your brain for some reason messed up a word. you maybe wouldnt ever know unless someone said it, you had pictures, or you looked really closely at it.

admittedly, i dont know why, i always imagined it as like some sort of big manor, and as im not a movie watcher (honestly if i can get away with it i hate watching movie adaptations of books. as in, if its a book i care about, fuck the movie adaptation ill probably hate it. i mean i know the adaptation has to have differences or whats the point of doing both, like watching the movie and reading the book, because id imagine a movie would be to promote it in a way and make you interested in reading the books yourself to fully immerse yourself into the world. to probably provide a different take? im just not the biggest fan of that. perfectly fine with it though if its a book ive never read because i am a lazy shit) i never. had any actual proper visuals? i mean i tried watching like the first movie but i. honestly have a hard time watching really old stuff, as in like. stuff thats not the greatest quality as it is compared to now? and i just kind of gave up and never saw the point (fanfiction tells me everything that happens in the movies that are not. i mean i dont think theyre books, but i know like the grindelwald thing and obscurials) so.

man i just feel so validated knowing that other people make the same mistakes i make.

The Importance of Trees in Myths (like.. potential 'whys' of the existence of world trees. but uneducated and just guesses)

Trees are basically everywhere, and even otherwise it's been thought of as like a special thing in many places. There are some trees who've been I think, something something planted in space? And then moved back here, probably fact check me on that because I can't remember it exactly. Or I remember in my old school there was this big tree in the playground (back in elementary) and everyone loved to hang out underneath and around it by the shade that people were devastated when they were gonna cut it down to free up space for more classrooms. it doesn't have to actually have an important history or anything, and could literally just be a place that a lot of people like to hang around.

Continuing on, trees are so small at first. And then they grow, and they grow big (you could say its similar to infants and adults), not to mention that they can last a really long time. They can live to hundreds and even thousands of years, and the thing is is that people associate old age with being wise (there's the whole thing about respecting elders. Not that I'm saying you shouldn't, although I know you could probably assume that me mentioning it means that it isn't a good thing).

There's probably a god out there that's a tree, and related reasons might be because of the age difference, or maybe the way a tree grows, because trees can grow into different shapes as well, and I don't know, there might be an instance where it grows to point in a direction, and someone follows it and it saves their life, who knows. Trees can also be seen as rebirth in a way. Or well, to be more accurate, it's like about with fall and winter, 'shedding your leaves'. Actually I don't think anyone says that. Uh. Think about it another way. Phoenixes will turn to ashes, and then later rise up from them whole again. There's a MLP (My Little Pony) variation of where they shed their feathers and look horribly ill until they 'die', burning to ash, before coming back from those ashes whole in their feathery glory.

And then turn it into tree. Where it sheds its leaves and almost kinda look like they're dead, and then later on when those leaves (I almost said feathers, imagine a tree with feathers haha) come back with spring and summer, in its whole basically 'rebirth' cycle. I don't know about trees enough to tell you how it actually works but also maybe, connections? Like with how big they are, and how their roots underneath expand vastly beneath them it could be seen as a whole, like, channel. Words are failing me right now but well, branches of worlds, y'know. Many branches above, and then many roots below and could technically be thought of as heaven and hell in its contrast, y'know?
