“Goth girlfriend,” rant

I’m so fucking tired of these basic ass dudebros claiming “I want a goth gf,” but throw a hissy fit as soon as they figure out that they have to listen to actual goth music and not some basic rock music like Deftones, which don’t get me wrong I love Deftones too but I do think it’s quite hilarious whenever I see men claim that love goth girls but get mad when they find out that that they have to actually commit like most men.

When I say commit I mean accept the fact that we don’t look like fucking e girls you see on TikTok.

You don’t want a Goth girl Greg, you want a e girl.

Goth music is goth culture!

Goth is a music based subculture!

Not an aesthetic.

I’m a Mall Goth and Vampire Goth but at least I know that Goth comes from a music background and not some fucking fashion statement.

Rant over.

Unpopular opinion:

Horror movies that relay on gore are lowkey pretty lame.

There’s nothing scary about gore. It’s just gross.

If you’re watching a slasher or body horror that makes a little more sense to have blood and gore, but horror movies nowadays are always gory and I have a lot of friends who don’t like gore and don’t wanna see it.

And of course you got the horror bros defending it like “omg horror means gory and bloody!”

Like no.

Horror is so much more than just blood and gore.

If someone doesn’t like to see gore, that doesn’t make them less of a horror movie fan.

People just don’t wanna see it and they are valid.

That is all.

What is with anime and incest?!

I have been a anime fan and manga reader for as long as I can remember and I have noticed a common issue: the Normalization of incest.

For example: VAMPIRE KNIGHT, BLACK CLOVER, SPY X FAMILY, JUJUTSU KAISEN, OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB

Like what is it with anime’s obsession with incest?!

Like these animes had soo much potential to be amazing and yet they just had to ruin it with Incest!

Ugh

And I have seen alot of anime bros defend it to claiming it is “Japanese culture,” SINCE WHEN DID DUDEBROS ALL OF THE SUDDEN BECOME EXPERTS IN JAPANESE CULTURE?!

I don’t know anything about Japanese culture, but sitting here and claim that Incest is a part of “Japanese culture,” is the most insulting and racist thing ever!

Ugh.

My point is, this is, if there is any incest in Anime or manga, they will immediately be dropped.

Fuck you.

I was talking to my dad about working wages, right. I was bitching about how if I'm at work at Jersey Mike's I'm not going about and beyond for customer service. I'll do the job I'm getting paid to do and that's it. cause the thing is, I'm not making my life and my mental health so much harder for a non living wage. a wage that can't sustain me. and then my mom chirps in and she says "but you have to earn your living wage" and my dad starts saying things like "you have to be worth your living wage" and I'm like. so you're saying my inherent worth is tied to how much I can make. my worth is tied solely to my productivity. my worth is tied to how good of a cog I can be in an absurd pointless arbitrary STUPID machine. THAT IS FUCKED UP

I should get a living wage no matter what, we all should. we shouldnt have to fear being out of a job and therefore not being able to live. our quality of life shouldn't rest on the shoulders of our finances like what the fuck I hate capitalism so much

My Tumblr likes? I think you mean scrolling through in a panic because I KNOW I saw a post about that thing a few days ago but I didn't reblog it because I didn't think I'd need to find it again but NOW I REALLY DO and wHY DO I LIKE SO MUCH STUFF-

[fishyupmywishy]

I’ve been seeing some fics/ideas both on AO3 and on here where Chloe is in an abusive/toxic relationship and Red saves her from it. No hate to those bloggers/writers (I’ve read one on AO3 and bookmarked it immediately cuz it was so good) but it seems extremely out of character for Chloe to ever be with someone who would mistreat her.

From what we’ve seen in the movie, Chloe doesn’t hesitate to fight against someone she believes has done her wrong, and she’s clearly strong enough to fight back so there’s no way she’d let someone overpower her. Plus, her parents literally have the most perfect love story ever, she knows what pure romantic love is supposed to look like, and she would back away as soon as she realizes that it wasn’t the perfect picture her parents are.

So, I suggest, instead of making Chloe the helpless maiden, let Red be.

Red has been sheltered since the day she was born, and she has absolutely no idea what love is or how it’s given or received. Any idea of love she has is from her mother, who, evidently, manipulated her and emotionally abused her. She’s seen to want love, so it makes sense that if it came in the form of pain, she wouldn’t know how to react to that because she’s finally loved, even if it’s not ideal.

Chloe, being the charming knight she is, would swoop in and save Red from whatever misery she put herself in to just be happy for once.

And then they live happily ever after.

The end.

Wait, wait, Andre Bourgeois, the corrupt major of Paris, gets a redemption? And that redemption involves shipping his only daughter to live with her abusive mother and replacing her with his wife's bastard daughter?

Seriously why do the creators of Ladybug hate Chloe?

I heard mogan say this in an interview and I thought it was interesting to think about so here's a quick rant about Ella. So like Morgan was being asked about tge characters she plays (Ella if you some how didn’t get that from the beginning) and she mentions how Ella feels very much more like a teenager in the film, and I have to agree with that. She's very much more grounded, and blunt in the way you'd expect from someone who's realized just how shitty life can be. A trait that she shares with Red, who is another character who grew up poorly and tended to see things through a more jaded lens.

She also goes on to say that she thinks that because Ella didn’t have the best life growing up she channels all that energy into a protectiveness, and like I just don't feel like that's talked about enough because it's my favorite part of her character. Like throughout the story you hear Ella talk about her disdain for royalty and how Bridget is different, and how she's the strongest person she knows, and I just find that so interesting, because that protectiveness stems from a kind of selfishness in a way. She wants to keep Bridget safe because she doesn't want to have to believe that all of the world is this cruel. She wants to believe that if someone like Bridget can exist then there has to be good somewhere.

Bridget reminds her that there's good in the world, that maybe if you shine your light on the world, the world could shine back. And even if she doesn't completely believe that she's willing to protect Bridget’s light with her life because right now it's the only one she has. The only proof she has of good people existing, so yeah in Ella’s eyes she is different, and for not letting her light go out for all this time she is really strong, and Ella wants to protect her from the world's cruelty for as long as possible, and she does the same thing with Chloe decades later. She has this pattern of shielding the people she loves from all that's bad in the world (to the best of her ability) that she doesn't exactly know how to teach them to protect themselves. I.e Chloe’s naivety when she apologized to Lady Tremaine and Bridget falling for the prank. I don't know, I just feel like the people around Ella tend to become too reliant on her and it's really interesting because there's this fierce loyalty in Ella’s character that seems despite everything to never be enough.

The fetishization of Goth people/women

I saw a post about this and I have to speak up.

I am so fucking over the fetishization of goth people especially goth women.

Like don’t get me wrong, I’m all for sexual liberation and for looking sexy and yes I tend to be a simp when it comes to goth men and goth women, but this whole “I want a goth girl to crush me,” is getting ridiculous. I get it’s a joke but still, it’s old and annoying. It’s one thing to have a crush on a goth person, but the whole sexualizing thing is old and annoying.

Goth is more than just “looking hot,”

That’s why miss the early 2000s.

I miss when goth people were considered the “weirdos,”

I miss when goths were feared in a way.

I feel like back then people didn’t try so hard back then too.

Say what you want about mall goths/emo/scene people but I feel like back then they didn’t try so hard. They just did what they wanted and I freaking miss that.

Nowadays everything is a competition.

Everything is sexualized and fetishized and I am so sick of it.

Again, nothing wrong with wanting to look sexy, but the sexualizing and fetishizing of goth people especially goth women is so tiring and old and it needs to die especially the whole “big tiddie goth gf,” thing.

Just stop.

Let’s got back to the gritty weird grimy side of goth because that’s what I wanna see.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.🖤🥀🦇

Why I don’t like Borrasca

TW: sexual assault and trafficking⚠️

⚠️SPOILERS⚠️

I knew as soon as meatcanyon and wendigoon covered this story there was gonna be some dudebros coming at people who rightfully hate this story.

The amount of plotholes in this story really stick out to me so much and the fact that it’s disturbing just for the sake of being disturbing pisses me off.

Like I really don’t understand.

Like don’t get me wrong, it drew me in the beginning because I liked the scene where Sam, Kyle and Kimber are on their bikes and riding to a treehouse because it felt very Stephen King in my opinion.

I especially liked how in part 1 and 2 when they were kids and the dialogue felt very kid like which I appreciated for some reason.

But then we get to part 3 and 4 and this is where everything starts to lose its touch.

It was extremely rushed and the big reveal that this town is basically selling the women into sex slavery and trafficking makes me sick.

Like what?!

“And then they raped all the women! Concentration camp! Ohhh!” Like come on.

When we get to the big shocker, it’s not even scary it’s just gross.,

Ugh like adoption exists! Why was any of this shit happening? They did all this because of some people are infertile and you need workers or something? What the fuck!

Also if Sam kept Borrasca in the back of his mind and he was pretty much obsessing over it, why didn’t he keep on investigating? Like seriously it was so easy to get up there! But it takes Kimber to do further investigation when he easily could’ve done it even without her getting kidnapped.

And don’t get me started on the incest.

Like I know they don’t know this, but Kyle and Kimber are literally half siblings and you decide to me them DATE?!

Yuck!

Ugh.

And don’t me started on that edgelord ending that terrible sequel.

Such a cheap edgelord mess.

This had the potential to be great, but it flopped so hard and I’ve seen people crown this story as some golden classic. Ugh.

Oh and reveal of his dad being a part of it did absolutely nothing to me and him being a perverted creep to this daughter disgusts me.

Not to mention selling her.

I’ve seen a lot of sexual assault survivors speak their minds on this and I have to agree with them.

Boo to Borassca🖕

This is what dudebros look like when they complain about women liking anime and manga:

[whatsjulietslastname]

expending on the mlm pricefield thing (and i’m not talking about double exposure anymore), i think if pricefield had been one of the first mlm pairing to be openly queer in video games history, it would’ve been way more of a big deal back when the game was released and years later. i also think little to no people would be debating whether their relationship is platonic or not, and people would’ve been way faster at jumping to the conclusion that you were homophobic if you thought they were.

historically, the most popular mlm pairings (i’m thinking johnlock, kirk and spock from star trek, merlin and arthur, all the h*rry p*tter and marvel gay ships) have a way bigger fanbase and are way less denied than the wlw ones (i’m thinking supercop, emma swan and regina mills, betty and veronica from riverdale etc). (for the record, i looked up “queerbaiting” to make this post and have examples, and found like a dozens of mlm pairings and always the same few wlw ones…) AND it is way more socially acceptable to say “those two women have a platonic relationship” whereas, if you do the same with johnlock, for instance, you WILL get an angry twenty paragraphs long reply about how there was nothing platonic about it (even though John Watson married a woman).

my point is not “he married a woman so he wasn’t queer” my point is, whenever one part of a wlw pairing has a boyfriend, or a man who she shows a glimpse of interest in (*cough cough* Warren Graham *cough cough*), it is IMMEDIATELY used as ‘evidence’ that this character cannot be queer since she can be in a heterosexual relationship — which is an argument that, again, you will practically never find directed at a gay ship. and, again, the few people who do use this argument against mlm pairings are called ‘homophobic’.

AGAIN, i am not saying that you cannot ship Warren and Max or are homophobic if you do, i’m saying that if Chloe and Max had been two guys, people would’ve been so focused on them, on Max’s diary’s entries, and the two possible kisses they can share onscreen, and the flirting and implications in their relationship, and Chloe’s obvious attraction to Max, that grahamfield would’ve had a way smaller fanbase — or no fanbase at all. and people would’ve absolutely disregarded the fact that you can make Max romance Warren (who is a girl in this scenario). they would’ve seen Warren’s nearly one-sided flirting, and would’ve immediately gone “she (Warren) is in love with him (Max) and he doesn’t give a fuck” (and the kiss in the Two Whales would’ve been collectively ignored by the entire fandom, as is Mary Watson, or Pepper Potts, or Tonks, or Ginny Weasley).

but BECAUSE Max and Chloe are girls, people are still debating whether she is even queer or not by saying “if i make her romance Warren she experiences no attraction towards Chloe and therefore is straight” which is false, because the attraction is HERE. all you, as a player, get to decide is whether or not Max acts on it. and no matter how much evidence there is that Max is indeed romantically interested in Chloe, you will NEVER convince those people, because to them, the moment a woman and a guy interact in a non-platonic way, this woman has to end up with said guy, no matter how queer-coded her relationship with another woman is.

and now that pricefield is broken up, people who would’ve been rioting if it had been guys are calling people who are rightfully upset ‘dramatic’. just try and imagine the reaction of the Sherlock fandom if Sherlock was returning without Watson because “they argued off-screen and decided to stop seeing each other”. those guys aren’t childhood best friends, are never romantically involved, their fandom hasn’t been begging to have a glimpse of them together for ten years, and yet i can’t even imagine how angry people would be. all this fandom was asking was to at least not destroy Max and Chloe’s friendship, and look where we are now.

[sorrywh]

Discussions about Max and Chloe's breakup, along with sentiments like "this is disrespectful to fans" and "my Pricefield can't be like this," are bound to persist. It's clear that many fans are frustrated, and while I understand and share the love for Chloe, the overwhelming focus on her is excessive. I am concerned that it will overshadow the actual discussions about Double Exposure itself (the game's characters, their relationships, possible discussions about the development of events). From the outside (to those who could potentially become a part of the fandom), it could seem that in Life Is Strange, only sapphic relationships matter. As sad as it may be, this is further confirmed by the absence of any accompanying materials (books, comics) for LIS2, while True Colors has two (mutually exclusive!!!) sequels that focus solely on the female love interest—one in the form of a book, the other in the form of a comic.

Besides that, Life Is Strange as a franchise has never been limited to a single timeline. The comic Forget-Me-Not took as its basis the timeline with Rachel alive and living together with Chloe. The book Steph's Story directly stated that it's based on the events of bae over bay ending. There is even a whole six-volume comic series concluding its story with Max and Chloe's happily ever after and the restoration of Arcadia Bay, while in Life Is Strange 2, the town destroyed by the tornado remains a mere ghost town.

I don't see that supporters of the sapphic love line have a lack of content—there's space for Pricefield, Amberprice and Chenrich, and I don't see a problem with Deck Nine taking a completely different direction in the development of the characters' relationships.

We just have to wait for this discourse to quiet down, and for discussions about the game itself to become much more prominent. I want to see Life Is Strange as it was 9 years ago - full of discussions, theories, whodunnit guesses, symbolism explanations, and longreads connecting the dots. I've been a fan since the release of the first episode of the first season, and I'm grateful that the franchise is still alive and that new content is still being released.

The celestial object of the day is Phobos!

It's Mars's largest moon with 21 km (13 mi), it orbits Mars at only 6,000 km (3,700 mi) and it gets closer by 1.8 meters every year, at that rate is expected to collide with Mars or form a planetary ring in about 30-50 million years!
