Iām sorry, but the Netflix showrunner referring to Kataang as an āissue to tackleā in the future is some of the funniest shit Iāve ever read/heard.
#the way I choked#he was directly referencing k@taang in his answer too.#the age gap was already a problem in the original show#now you just see it the way Zutara has the entire time because you see it in real life actors their age#the maturity difference between a 12 and 14 year old is insane#he literally said he was relieved he didnāt have to deal with it this season#and he just kept going too š#Iām not a fan of the ship but DAMN he did them so dirty#avatar the last airbender#zutara#atla live action#anti k@taang

people actually genuinely shipping eric bogosian and assad zaman is so revolutionary to me I think all rpf should be between a 71 year old man and some theatre twink. quit it with the 20 year olds from youtube and boybands. only this from now on
#i dont know why it surprises me so much i want tv!devils minion as bad as anyone#and i know the internets general lack of ability to differentiate between acting and real life#but something about these compilations of assad giving eric heart eyes at panels is so uniquely interesting to me#i guess the thing to me is that normally if a celebrity relationship looks like that there is OUTRAGE.#ive seen thinkpieces being written about celebrity relationships with a 7-year age gap#yet now it's not only endorsed but actively encouraged and imagined by some fans#and it's all because of eric bogosians raw sex appeal. honestly impressive#personal#iwtv

random throwback to fabio's response to casey saying he should've been black flagged for the whole open leathers situation
#'he is at home and he likes to fish' is truly superb#//#brr brr#heretic tag#current tag#i was reminded of this in a very roundabout way... seeing a social media graphic celebrating fabio making q2#which is like. yes that's nice. but that's also inherently extremely depressing lbr#and i was kinda thinking how... look obviously people don't ignore it and yes the novelty has worn off after last year#but it feels like what's happened to fabio should STILL be getting more attention than it is. like it is a major injustice#that also no past stars of the sport are regularly having hot takes about! they mostly just ignore him!#i do sometimes link casey and fabio in my head. roughly the same age gap to the all-time-great hazing them during their rookie seasons#the only riders within their manufacturers able to wring performance out of their bikes over the course of several seasons#who suffered a competitive decline as their manufacturers went the wrong way#now obviously casey's 2010 is nowhere close to as abysmal as fabio's 2024 but. y'know. and at least casey got to leave for pastures greener#anyway given all that. it is funny that like their one significant interaction is fabio dismissing casey as a fisher#which ironically is of course a deeply casey line. casey had a whole thing about how retired riders should maybe know to stfu#āi have seen the real face of some with whom i had a good relationshipā EXTREMELY casey line#and thus the cycle of life continues#(though casey was obviously right here lol)#ofc the main difference between the pair of them is that fabio at heart is a lover and casey is. not that

sydney is too young for carmy. its grooming tbh very weird of carm to look at syd that way when she's his mentee and looks up to him. disgusting that creeps like u ship it
We don't have a canon age for Sydney or Carmy so I'm going off their actors' ages.
A four year difference is too much for you?? Lol. This isn't grooming and realistically most relationships can have this dynamic. Anon I invite you to the real world where rarely you will find people who date are on the exact same level (please don't come at me with this "power imbalance" shit too lol)
Also if you think I'm a creep I don't really care. Being an adult means I can do what I want without caring about randoms on the internet think of me.
A lot of you also use purity culture/false virtuosity to bully people, too; don't think I don't notice how you're subtly trying to equate this to actual pedophilia. Genuinely, you do a disservice to actual issues when you pull this shit.
#this also isnt even my worst ship in terms of age gap#you do you#but just let me do me lol#the bear fx#ask#anon#the bear#sydcarmy#sydney x carmy#sydney adamu#carmy berzatto#ngl something very catholic about the way anons come in here harping about this#like why can you not just let people do what they want#the internet has made some of you so relentlessly nosy#its not enough to ship and let ship#now it's 'youre morally a bad person and you should feel bad!!'#what if i like the fact that sydney is his mentee?? oh noo what then??#fuck yall lol everything has to be so boring and sanitized and not real#like i think most of these askers are young and never experienced real life romance#so they think everything must be a perfect fairytale or its problematic#no babe the oddities are what keep it interesting#this is almost as bad as those people who say sydney x richie is a father daughter ship

people love an "i'll take care of you" "it's rotten work" "not to me, not if it's you" character dynamic until the character who needs to be taken care of is disabled. then it's supposedly fucked up and toxic for a person to have to take care of someone else.
#eliot posts#this is continuing off that last post i reblogged#that time i was like ''aw tumblr is out of new posts for this character i like. reddit is empty too. lemme check twitter''#BIG MISTAKE#i had to see the hot take of#''it's fucked up to ship this because character A had to be character B's caretaker. that's basically slavery.''#LIKE BRUH???#have you. ever met a couple where one of them is disabled and needs a caretaker? bc that's a very real thing that happens and it's not toxi#honestly usually the risk in those situations is the power the caretaker nay have over their disabled partner#but that imbalance can be properly navigated#and is not a concern in these two characters' case bc there is a very clear mutual respect there#caregiver fatigue is a real problem too of course but that's ALSO something that can be successfully navigated#and in these particular characters' case doesn't seem like it would be an issue because like#character b also has professional caretakers who will likely continue to be part of his life if needed#(and the money to hire more if not)#like it's okay to not like the ship#maybe the age gap of someone in their 20s w someone in the equivalent of their 30s squicks you out#maybe you monogamously ship one or both of them w someone else#maybe you think their dynamic is way more interesting from a platonic angle than from a romantic one#maybe you just aren't interested in their dynamic#those are all fair points! i'm not even ride or die for that ship myself#but jesus fucking christ you don't gotta be ableist about it#oh or the equally bad take i saw on there of#''character a could never be attracted to character b. he just sees char b as a sick dying old dog that he needs to take care of''#like no! character a clearly respects and values character b! they are friends! the issue is just that YOU see character b as a dying dog.

New people entering fandoms these days think immortal x mortal is "immoral and wrong" because of the age gap
#remember everyone it's FICTION#also age gaps in real life are a concern both because of minors#and because of different maturity levels and stages of life#neither of which apply to an immortal and a mortal dating unless the mortal is a minor or MUCH younger than a full adult ig#billford#billdip#i don't ship it but y'all would like this post

I'm so tired of age gap fics please if i can suspend my disbelief about mushroom zombies I can suspend my disbelief about the reader's age not being equivalent to my own, please just give me two 50(+) year old bastards falling in love no more of this 15+ year age gap I swear to god someone is gonna make me start writing last of us fanfiction at this rate.
Anyways, I would like to request some aid from the last of us fandom in terms of fic recs if anyone knows any good reader insert or x reader fics wherein they and joel are around the same age? Pre or post outbreak, au, I don't care I'm starving please if anyone has any let me know.
EDIT: I did not think this was going to get any traction which in hindsight was kinda stupid of me but I really want to clarify something since I originally left it in the tags which I probably shouldn't have. THIS ISNT A HIT PEICE. I've been a fanfic writer for years now even if this blog isn't exactly a great example of my supposed stellar writing consistency. I mean no hate towards the people who like age gap or write it it just isn't my thing personally and I would like to read fics that explore other topics besides that when it comes to this fandom. Yes I understand the easy solution is to write my own and i would be a liar to say I wasn't but I'm new to this fandom and still consuming the actual content and I know my drafts aren't exactly great right now in part because of that. What I wanted to accomplish here wasn't just to complain a little but to reach out and ask if anyone could point me in the direction of non age gap fics in the mean time and they did so thank you very much!! I genuinely appreciate it. Write what you like but understand that I also reserve the right to read what I like and to ask for help in finding it because let's be honest tumblrs search and filter system is non existent and asking for help was my next best bet so uh yeah I'm gonna stop rambling now and refine this maybe when I'm more awake and can word things better probably.
#THIS ISNT HATE#THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION#I'm just really tired of looking for fanfic for certain characters usually played by Pedro pascal let's be real here#and then 99% of them are age gap#like cool people like that good for them all the respect#it just ain't for me#but it's literally all there is#like non age gap fics are the acception not the rule#when I say age gap I mean like reader is at least ten years younger then the character#yeah I know as long as everyone is consenting adults legally it's fine or whatever#it's the difference in life experience for me#I just want more fics where the reader was an adult before the world ended#I swear to god someone is gonna make me write that last of us x resident evil fic#the plot just combines the the two#Leon was in Spain when it happened#racoon city was once a thing#ironically umbrella didn't end the world#weird how mold and fungi are kinda similar I wonder if that's relatedā [gunshots]#joel miller x reader

i just realized part of my absolute discomfort w the five being given a relationship in s4 is that the fans of it remind me of every person who spoke out against adult men sexualizing emma watson as a child but defended or participated in doing the same thing to daniel radcliffe.
like it doesnt matter if you are saying the relstionship is good writing, it was still the writers waiting for aidan to be old enough to kiss a woman in her 30s. Beyond that, they used Ritu, they did not actually care about the idea of there being a compelling relationship between the two. They just desperately needed an older woman five would actually go for because they recognized that five wouldnt just date around.
and every person I have seen defending it are women who are currently the same age as the people defending the sexualization of young daniel radcliffe were. everyone ive seen has been old enough to be in Ritu's shoes in the relationship, and that worries me. You shouldnt be able to write off someone your age in a relationship w someone that young. Like kissing a 19 yr old in your 30s is predatory (in their case the writers were the predatory aspect). even if you have good suspensions of disbelief, thats still someone in his mid 20s with a 40 year old. as someone in their mid 20s, it would be super gross if a 40 year old approached me for a relationship. and as the older and more mature party, it is on the 40 year old to turn down that relationship if approached by someone so much younger.
anyone who argues that fives mind is much older, theyve proven that he did not actually spend that time growing up and learning proper socialization at all. Also i would like to point to how gross it is when its written that its fine that someone is dating a 12 year old cause theyre an immortal and have been around thousands of years.
physical age matters more than mental age and saying shit like 'theyre so much more mature then their age implies' is literally a tactic groomers use so by normalizing it for media, you are showing children that its a fine defense against such relationship gaps.
also ive seen people say that the cheating is the main issue with it and ??? thats the one issue that is addressed. like that is the one thing that they didnt play for laughs, they actually had contention about it.
#the umbrella academy#tua s4#tua#the umbrella academy s4#spoilers#ish#anti post#potato posts#i could say more but honestly that was yhe big thing bothering me#i was groomed as a child and thought it was normal because of the treatment of characters maturity and mental age being more important#i can genuinely say that children do see this shit and then think its normal and fine in real life and yall are contributing to that#by acting like there is no issue in the age gap or using the mental age /maturity defense you are indirectly helping groomers#because groomers will use media and ppls defense of it to say the real life equivalent is fine

If yall wanna criticize the fandom surrounding the Fallout show for shipping Ghoulcy over VaultKnight and call out racism that's VALID.
If your distate for the ship comes from the fact that there is a canon main character of color and people would rather ship Lucy with the corpse cowboy, that's FINE.
But if ur really out here going "he's 200 years old" "he was too old for her BEFORE the bombs dropped" "he kept her as a prisoner" "he tried to drown her" "he cut her finger off"
I literally do not care.
#its FICTION#a literal impossible in real life age gap/power dynamic is not going to hurt anyone#its also gross to see ppl infantalize a grown woman#lucy is naive about the surface#shes not a child#she has sex#she ASKS for sex from max outright#the power dynamic between them is bc of coop's abillity to survive on the surface not the age gap between them#as for the other shit#idgaf ppl are going to ship problematic things and you need to get over it bc the fact that it IS problematic is what ppl are attracted to#attacking ppl and anon messaging ppl bc erm he tried to kill her#is fucking lame#LIKE DAMN WE KNOW WHAT HE DID#i still want him to wreck my shit#thanks#fallout#fallout show#fallout amazon#ghoulcy#vaultknight#dd:dne

Sometimes I just randomly stop and remember that the age gap between Luca and Marc is only like 3 years and it hurts my brain a little cause because of the success he had I though heād be a lot older than the grid but heās really not.
makes me laugh that vale and marcās little brothers are born within like a year of each other. MEANWHILE
#rosquez age gap an interesting conceptual playground#shout out to valeās real life partner who was in fact also born in 1993. which could mean. nothing.#callie speaks#motogp#asks

Okay so while I'm thinking about it let me tell yall about a real interaction I was a part of last night.
My d&d group is made up of people ages 18-30. The 18 year old is just entering college and we are all very proud and supportive and last night after our session we stayed online to chat and learn about skippidy Ohio Rizz. At one point 18 end up saying that they had recently slept with someone 36 bc they like making questionable choices and I was like 'Mood. I remember when my back didn't hurt'
But another player, 24, was HORRIFIED. Like out loud said "No you cant" which made 18 go "Why not?"
"Because you aren't old enough to understand that kind of age gap yet"
They said this to their face. You aren't old enough to understand that.
So I said "Uh no 18 is an adult and can fuck who they want" and then me and the other 30 agreed that by the time 18 was 30 they would DEFINITELY look back on some of these choices like omg but that's part of the journey.
I know it's so hard to look at an 18 year old and not see the child they are still growing out of but they are growing into adults. They can do adult things and make adult mistakes. They'll also still make some kid mistakes! And choices that turn out to not be mistakes but could have been better, and so many other wonderful and something dangerous things.
And allllll of that aside I'd much rather have a friend who knows they won't be shamed for their sexual partners bc if something does turn out to be a mistake then maybe they'll feel okay telling me and I can actually provide the support I would have loved when I was young and stupid.
#age gap discourse is stupid real life doesnt work like that#in real life people have sex with strangers and we just have to be chill about that#in real life an 18 year old is young and has so so much to learn and they need support along the way#but they need to be able to make their own choices. yes even the 'bad' ones

If there's one thing to thank anti hankcon discourse it's for the folks around their thirties gathering to tell the teens that they are, in fact, adult enough to decide for themselves who to fuck with and that they do, in fact, find older people attractive.
(And also collectively asking folks in their teens-to-early 20s to stop using the word p*dophilia when talking about literal 30+ years olds.)
Like really, throwing this words in relation to adults downplays its actual weight in its actual fucking meaning, and this is really scary. Age gap might be a controversial topic but not anywhere near it is a matter of comparable scale to what the word ped*philia stands for. Don't turn this word into a buzzword, I'm begging you.
#I think it's like when you're 5 years old#all the 8 years old feel like they're just infinitely older#then in your twenties 3 year old difference is absolutely nothing#The further you're away from being a kid#the less of a difference it makes#10 years difference between 10 and 20 years old is abso-fucking-lutely not the same as between 30 and 40 years old#even though it's the same amount of years#and the same way it's hard for a 5 yo to comprehend that for adults three year old gap is barely a difference#(as it is literally 60% of their life)#here it's perhaps something similar.#I'm in my relatively early twenties and I too feel like I wouldn't date a person who's X years older than me#but in ten more years I don't expect myself to think the same way anymore#as it wouldn't make that much of a difference when it's not 50% of my lifespan anymore#I still don't think I'll find myself in a relationships with someone significantly older#but it would be wild to think that people in their 30-ies aren't old enough to make their own decisions. Let's be real#in this day and age#after you've been an adult for some time#there isn't this much of a power imbalance anymore between you and people who are X years older#or#the same kind of imbalance can be found within the same age category but not due to the age anymore#but things like social class.#Hell#in this sense 30yo can be the one overpowering 50yo.

will never understand how anyone could seriously hate vince. like if u do not find him fine as hell even tho he is. how can u not at least find it a lil bit Funny that this man fumbled his bitch so bad that he was resorting to pulling up outside her school in the middle of the afternoon in his purple 1971 dodge charger. parking within her line of sight. then just leaning on the whip and serving face for a few mins before dipping. nary a word spoken just there for the love of the game and to remind liv that he exists n still wants her sooooo bad š
#like the amount of serious beef ive seen w him bc#oh hes a stalker hes so gross n creepy yadda yadda#first of all. put me in livās situation n there would not be cheating allegations#only bc thered be no need id climb him like a tree in front of everybo- i mean what!#second off. this is how ur gonna treat one of the last few Real Loverboys left on this earth??#him doing ts is like. his equivalent of pulling up outside her window w a boombox or smth#like god forbid a man be down so bad#he pulls up on a hs campus at like 2pm jus to be like#heyyy babygirl im still sexy af n i have a sick ass car in case u forgot n i still want u. btw. in case you dont know that#n i mean. if u are a Deleted Livince Scene Knower yk it counted for SMTH!#maybe im biased tho i love when the age gap ship is of the āteenage gf makes 20s bf fight for his damn LIFEā variety#anyways jus thought abt that. had a giggle#vince schneider#ceci speaks
