Lessons to learn from the SLBP Lords:

Nobunaga: Never give up, no matter the odds or what others think, they don't know you.

Mitsuhide: Stop trying to do everything for everyone, worry about yourself and your own needs too, they will understand.

Inuchiyo: Stop blaming and punishing yourself for things you can't change. It wasn't even your fault in the first place.

Hideyoshi: No matter how low you are to the ground, you can always rise to greatness.

Mitsunari: You deserve love, you are more than worthy of being loved.

Ieyasu: Don't be afraid to trust others, not everyone is out to get you.

Kenshin: Don't let the scars of the past stop you from living in the now.

Shingen: Letting someone help take care of you doesn't make you weak.

Yukimura: Life is precious, don't be so willing to sacrifice your own.

Saizo: it's okay to forgive yourself, move on, and find your own happiness.

Masamune: Always try to find it in your heart to forgive those who have hurt you.

Kojuro: Don't focus so much on the future that you can't see what's going on in the now.

Shigezane: Don't feel like you are less than someone else, you are the only person like you that this world will ever have.

Nobunaga: (¬_¬)

Mitsuhide: ( • ̀ω•́ )

Nobunaga: (-_-#)

Mitsuhide: (^_^)

“Totalitarianism begins in contempt for what you have. The second step is the notion: ‘Things must change—no matter how, Anything is better than what we have.’”

— Hannah Arendt, “Interview with Roger Errera”, The New York Review of Books (26 October 1978)

I spent millions of credits on these.

Brings back memories :)

Slight Canon Divergence. Behind the scenes that occur in Hideyoshi MS, but in Maeda Toshiie’s POV.

What were Toshiie’s thoughts after he was exiled by Lord Nobunaga?

Chapter 1: Into the Rain

Toshiie hated waiting.

And thus, he sparred with a lone training dummy in the middle of the courtyard in an effort to improve his martial skills, despite knowing that most of his peers cannot best him. Dusk was falling, and the next day, the army would set off towards the battlefield. None of his former mentor’s retainers went out to train along with him in order to get ready for the upcoming war.

For months the young man had prepared himself for the big event; one that would determine his fate as a samurai. He had trained with his former colleagues, participated in mock battles together with the regiment of Lord Shibata Katsuie, one of the senior retainers of Oda clan and Toshiie’s former teacher. And even though the young man was “officially” a ronin for incurring the wrath of his former liege lord, he is still well-respected; enough to warrant a warm welcome within the estate of the lord commander, who treats the youth like his own son.

When evening falls, there will sometimes be sudden torrential rains. The skies were overcast and  Toshiie could see dark heavy clouds shrouded the dignified Kiyosu castle from afar like a cage. His rain-soaked purple kimono swayed languidly everytime he moves that the top hem of his robes started to become undone. He adjusted it afterwards.  He could hear the trees rustling due to the strong winds that passed them by.

Despite the downpour, however, Toshiie didn’t stop his exercises. He could hear the loud clack whenever his weapon hit the dummy, and whooshing sounds as he maneuvered his practice spear. For a moment, his focus was on his target. The next, however, his mind began to wander as he recalled some of his memories. He gripped his weapon hard that his knuckles went white as his past flashed before his eyes like an old painting.

Bloggers who are struggling with hate asks

I know there are so many bloggers out there who are dealing with haters, especially the more popular ones. But I personally see this as a good sign, because it means you are gaining popularity? Plus, hate messages are usually funny to me bcs they make no sense whatsoever. It's usually like "your blog sucks" or "no one likes you". Like uhhh okay?? 😂 Yet you took time to look at my blog, how ironic🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️.

To haters: Pls feel free to send those bcs I love sarcasm ♡♡♡♡ or if you have nerve to dm me, please do that too ♡

Difference between Hate and Criticism

In my definition, hate is more like random msg with no proof or reason. It's totally emotional thing, whether you are feeling jealous, angry or whatever. Hates doesn't mean they ACTUALLY hate your content. They might be just having a bad day, and want to vent their stress online. Hate messages are STILL VERY wrong. The words you mindlessly throw, can hurt others (unless you are weird like me who laugh at those hate messages). If you are just having a stressful day, find another way to vent your stress- not by hurting others. Go do something productive or go have a talk with someone close. Stay AWAY from social media if you are just online to send random hate messages.

Criticism on the other hand, has reason. It's just not simple "your blog sucks". It might NOT always be logical or reasonable. Opinions/reasons can be totally biased, but it does have reason of some sort lol. So instead of just saying "your blog sucks", it will have something like "your blog sucks because......" Criticism can be seen as one form of feedback, but it's up to you whether you will take that piece of opinion or not.

So please, dont just send "I hate your blog" and say it was a valid criticism lol. No that's not criticism, that's straight out hate.

I know there has been a few of complaints in the past about things I post. I personally get really irritated when those get sent through ask. It's nothing personal towards you. If you have constructional criticism about my blog (not just "your blog sucks" but with reason and points), which bother majority of the people in this fandom, please dm me, not through ask. If you send through ask, more chances are I will get annoyed and give you only a reply that you don't wanna hear lol. If you dm though, there is a way to communicate- so more chance for compromising (I said chance for a reason). However, if it annoys you personally, pls just unfollow or block.

My point is that, bloggers shouldn't feel discouraged because of haters. Because 1) its saying that you gained that much fame. 2) They might actually like your blog because they are checking on your blog frequently just to trashtalk LOL (pls go find a better hobby).

Never be depressed by hate messages. Haters want to see you sad. Don't give what they want.

Stay strong bloggers♡

If anyone is struggling with hate ask, and dont know how to answer- feel free to dm me.
