Opened TikTok, saw the message, closed TikTok, opened TikTok again so I could react with people about, crumbled in realization that we are unable to group together anymore

One thing that’s annoying about pit madness as a trope in fic is when people act like Jason killing people is the result of magic induced compulsion and not a fundamental philosophical difference between him and the other bats. Jason was already saying “well maybe she had a point” about a woman who killed a serial killer rapist when he was ROBIN

one thing worth noting in the conversation about whether or not college students have "become stupid" is that the attitude of the general public toward academic study has largely shifted in the past few decades away from education as a moral betterment (and also, implicitly, a status symbol), toward totally embracing the idea that education is the Thing that gets you Jobs. which of course is pushed by policymakers and academic institutions, because how else do you sell academic funding in a capitalistic society? but has created an ethos about education as something you have to drag your feet through in order to get your degree, which makes students feel more inclined to use LLM like chatgpt to complete their work because they fundamentally aren't connecting with the material.

I just cannot believe that people still go on about the blatant lie that the reason why they don't like Jily is because Lily is reduced only to be Harry's mum, so they prefer Lily in Jegulus fics because she has a personality?! What Jily fics do you read in which one of the two main characters doesn't have a personality?!

As you can see, Petey made it through the fireworks and is doing very well!!! She's happy and relaxed and she went outside to go to the bathroom on her own. The Thundercoat and the melatonin with the CBD worked wonderfully!! It was a very pleasant evening for Petey and me!! She sat by my side and never flinched even once. I watched the fireworks outside my bedroom window, and now it's all back to normal!! It was the easiest 4th of July that Petey had ever had. I'm very grateful for that!! I hope that you all had a great day and that you had a great time!! 😁 😍

Ummm is it bad if I gave a stranger all the cash I was carrying which is more than they initially asked for before elaborating and asking for more but I was getting confused and couldn't follow their story and I don't often use cash but had some still in my wallet from my birthday last year and I told them my name and that I'm a student and that I'm autistic because they touched my shoulder and I flinched and then they saw exactly where I stopped and went in the uni halls building is that bad because I want to think I just helped someone who needed it with money I forgot about and everything is fine but I feel like I may have just shown those signs of vulnerability people warn me about and I'm not sure how much money I gave them and I hate thinking like this but I feel really confused and I was already overstimulated and they said something about meeting me outside another day to pay me back and I said it's okay so I hope they accept that I don't need paying back I'm just worried about a random stranger knowing where I live and stuff?

You know, I feel like other trans people might get this, but it's honestly kind of refreshing when a cis person has, like, undeniable tboy/tgirl/whatever swag. It's like when you come across somebody who speaks the same language as you and you only find out when they start speaking it, too.

I have not been in this fandom long enough to reasonably judge others' takes however. "EPIC fans are so silly to characterize odysseus as feeling guilty for his actions don't you know he's a war criminal" is definitely a wild one. like first of all to each their own so settle down and let people enjoy things ok. and secondly making choices with a bad outcome, even knowingly and deliberately, does not exclude the possibility of feeling bad about it later. in fact it makes for a much more in depth character because then you get to explore what he does or doesn't feel guilt over, and why, and if that guilt ever edges into regret or not.

Big fan of the trope you've made of an Ani-mom adopting Every Host On Earth. First Eva, now Naomi.

Love what you're doing with the Yeerks Drop Dead AU!

Thank you! I've always loved the AniPTA (the parents, Chapman, Nora, Mr. Tidwell) because they all feel like fleshed-out characters despite having such minor roles.

But yes, Naomi and Eva are two of my favorites for both being a) good moms who are b) smart as hell and c) ice-cold ruthless as needed. That's not a combination you see much in fiction, even these days. I don't think either of those two would offer you a sticker if you were feeling down, but either one would carry you up a mountain every day for the rest of your life if that's what it took to get you water.

So The Bear ends season 2 with Carmy fucking up his pretty serious relationship with Claire. They spent an entire season developing this relationship between Carmy and Claire, and now it's over, and not just over, but abruptly and painfully over. Throughout this same season, they continue to develop Carmy and Syd's relationship, incorporating undeniable nods toward an eventual romance.

Then in season 3, they have Carmy dealing with the fallout of his painful fuckup, that ended a relationship that was, as I said, pretty serious, and was developed over the course of an entire season. They do this while continuing to develop Carmy and Syd's relationship, and while their interactions are mostly tense this season, they continue to incorporate blatant nods toward an eventual romance.

This is happening at the same time they have opened a restaurant, and Carmy is under enormous pressure, pressure that has been made worse by his breakup. Pressure to make the place a success, to live up to his potential, but also to make sure that Tina has an income, that he gives Marcus's mom what she wanted for Marcus, that Ebra, elderly and at the point where he really needs to be retiring, continues to have a job, that he doesn't endlessly waste his uncle's money, and crucially, so that the restaurant can earn that star Sydney is dreaming of, and that Carmy didn't even want.

And yet there are people genuinely criticizing The Bear for not canonizing SydCarmy this season, when...?

The man just went through a devastating breakup -

At the same time he opened a goddamn restaurant -

And is clearly going through the crisis of a lifetime -

And on top of that, he's just quit smoking.

Do you think, in real life, that it's realistic someone in that situation would immediately turn around and start seeing someone else? Do you think the writers would have spent a whole season developing Carmy's relationship with Claire, just for Carmy to shrug it off like it was nothing when it ends?

I'm even more baffled by the idea that SydCarmy not becoming canon this season is because the writers this whole time, have just been, what? Fucking with you? Straight-baiting you? Or do you think that just because they didn't canonize SydCarmy this season that this is indicative that they didn't intentionally allude to a future romance between Syd and Carmy?

I will tell you right now that The Bear is one of the most purposefully written shows I've ever seen. And while I will say that this season might be the weakest so far and wasn't what I was hoping for either - Nothing on that show is an accident. Nothing means nothing.

The writers of The Bear are too good to have accidentally implied SydCarmy was a thing. They are also far too dedicated to their vision for The Bear for them to be throwing things in just to fuck with you.

Have some patience maybe? When was the last time you watched a show that didn't hand you something the moment it was hinted at? Aren't you tired of watching shows that skip to the good part? Which is, as a result, not as good as it would have been?

a somewhat under-acknowledged premise in the whole USAmerican Evangelical Ethos™ is the fact that a good number of these people genuinely believe that being constantly oppressed is an inalienable part of their existence as a religious group.

like legitimately this is why so many of them throw hissy fits whenever there's legislation that separates church and state or extends rights to religious or social minorities that don't line up with them. they believe that they are ontologically oppressed in every situation and therefore start grasping at straws to explain how, even in a society built by and upon their own values and acolytes, they are still the victims. all of a sudden it's "oppression" to have to call someone their chosen name and pronouns or walk past somebody else's house that has a pride flag or not force their students to engage in prayer in a public facility.

"this is just as the bible prophesied! we are being persecuted!" they cry when they are told to please follow science-based health regulations during a pandemic.

"you are trying to silence us, you followers of satan!" they say when they are forbidden from harassing random women outside planned parenthood.

"this is a conspiracy to destroy christian values in the usa!" they proclaim when they are required to accept the presence of visible religious minorities in communal spaces.

if evangelicals cease to be oppressed for their faith, then the entire house of cards that their denomination is built on will collapse. therefore, they must condition themselves to twist any inconvenience to them into oppression, even if they are the ones with the clear advantage in the situation.

I love the shape language in your art. like your Loop is still canon loop without much changes and yet they look incredible with the more spindly/angled body and the vague impression of a face
