[guy who put a lot of thought into fantasy cuisines based on regional ingredients + cooking methods + class voice] i'm SO normal about food you guys have no idea
#this is peasant food but not impoverished food#so they get a little bit of variety but admittedly some of this is Special Occasions Food#they're in a primarily grassland biome w harsh winters dry summers and high winds and would have limited access to any kind of baking#so most food is steamed boiled or stewed!#there's also a large focus on keeping sheep so the peasant class would consume primarily sheep products#the kingdom specializes in textiles#food#king drew this#worldbuilding#*small correction the south has dry summers the interior and northern region do not#dnd

the fact that they made it illegal to make ads louder than programs on tv in 2010 but haven't updated it to apply the same regulation to streaming. who do i have to call.
#jack facts#like do they think we don't notice#i truly do hate it here#i really do think that we should get to a ''you ruined it for everyone'' threshhold with ads at this point tbh#circulating ads should be a need based allowance#below a certain nw you can circulate as many ads as you want provided they follow guidelines#then above a certain nw you get a quota. you can have x number of ads circulating at a time.#and i don't mean distinct different ads that can be put wherever. no. if you have an ad on youtube that counts as one#and if you put the SAME AD on a different platform or tv channel or at the fucking gas station pumps or on a billboard or ANYWHERE#each different instance of the ad counts as another ad in your quota!#& if you have like a 1min skippable + a 30sec unskippable v of the same ad on the same platform. that counts as two. FUCK you.#and then above another nw line. you cannot have ads at all. bye you don't need them they serve no purpose they are just annoyances.#also paying influencers to hawk your shit counts as ads! fuck you!! paid word of mouth is not actual wom that is also an ad! fuck you!!!#oh u want ppl to rec ur product & u don't have any ad spots left?? well sugar you better have a fucking good product then lol :) fuck you#also if a co breaks an ad reg that co and any co it owns/parents can never make another fucking ad ever again in its existence#AND if a ceo breaks an ad reg w one co then disbands it and makes a new co and breaks ad reg w that one#then the CEO or any co they have ANY % ownership or investment in can never make an ad ever again. FUCK you.#charities/nonprofits and sole proprietorships get one (1) appeal to a total ad ban#that's IT!! ENOUGH!!!!! ENOUGH!!!!!!!! FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#AND ONE MORE THING. ''pay us not to see ads on our platform/app/other thing'' should also be illegal.#''pay us for basic ass functions'' illegal. pay to win. illegal. sale/product announcements in things that are not press. illegal.#creating an ad or listing for something that doesn't exist and only manufacturing it after it is purchased. illegal.#ads that are full screen when a user has not already selected full screen on a video player. illegal.#pop up ads. illegal.#ads with audio on a platform that doesn't. illegal. video ads on a platform that doesn't have video. illegal.#ads w epilepsy triggers. illegal everywhere forever always w out needing to be reported by consumers. cannot be circulated in the 1st place#ads w graphic violence or soundscapes that mimic it. see epilepsy triggers.#ads for things that are not actually consumer products. illegal.#anything else u want to circulate like an ad must go thru other regs to qualify as psa or edu. if it doesn't qualify tough shit get fucked.#[insert gif collage of people talking extensively while wildly gesturing for emphasis here]

Cannot believe that 'access to quality art and writing made by other people is a luxury not a right, and artists and writers deserve to be compensated for their labour, because as much as I believe in the ethos of UBI, we live in a post-capitalist hellscape, and creators need to eat' is a controversial opinion in Leftist spaces.
#'if you are consuming the product of someone's labour you should compensate them fairly for it for as long as we live in this shitty#capitalist world' should not be a polarising stance#but apparently the leftist praxis leaves people's brains when you remind them that artists and creatives also need money and food#and that idealism does not pay the bills#anyway. I am anti-pirating from indie creators (which. authors are.) AND anti-AI. until we have good UBI. Then you can go nuts#but until that day saying 'it's okay to steal wages from creatives' is really not a great leftie look lmao#We Live In A Shitty Capitalist Society and the way to combat that is. surprisingly. not to take other people's livelihoods.#work towards UBI. We should all be doing this. But in the meantime don't shit on fellow poor people scraping a survival#it's really that simple

I say this in the best way, but your characters feel like they're from an obscure but really good piece of media, and you feel like the artist who always draws the two main characters as ghay lovers
.
#that's actually a really flattering thing to hear!#and I get what you mean#every now and then someone mistakes my art as fanart of some piece of media#that they don't recognize but like the art anyway#I wish I had the product to give to you#a graphic novel or a webtoon or a written narrative#I fear there's a hole the shape of the main story in my work#and even though I allude to it and talk about it in the safety of the tags#it's kind of frustrating that you have to piece it together from the scattered bits of lore#instead of reading ~the thing~ digesting it and knowing you have consumed the story in it's intended form#this got a little off track#I think it's so motivating and rewarding that you're interested in my characters to begin with#even in the absence of a proper finalized work of fiction that ties all the art together#answered#anonymous#imagine a reality where they aren't lovers in the canon work but I just ship them really hard#even better if they aren't even the protagonists but some inconsequential side characters#that get two minutes of screen time every other episode and barely ever in the same scene

“All Blitzøs relationships are transactions” counterpoints.
Uh, no. You guys are seriously making no sense. He is used to having his familial and friend relationships partially take place in a work environment. But he still loves people unconditionally outside of work. The ‘endgame’ is stolas becoming a receptionist so this headcanon that he’s the exception is plain false.
Stolas has always been the one who asks for a ‘special requests’, protection, favours, rescue, finding Via, performing on stage, some type of an ‘exchange’. Not Blitzø. He stole from him which is not a transaction, then stolas turned it into one. Sex.
Even in this crystal confession, he is giving Blitzø a gift in exchange for staying with him and providing for Stolas’ romantic fantasies, wants, and desires, for free. And if Blitzø isn’t willing to give him what he wants, he quickly replaces him with a new better qualified man who can.
Blitzø doesn’t believe stolas truly loves him, he believes he just satisfies Stolas’ romcom fantasies. And he’s completely right. Stolas just wants “someone” in his rebuttal he didn’t mention transaction a single time.
That crystal was him trying to buy his love.
This is still his dad outside of work. Nothing changes that.
This is still his best friend, past and present, with nothing to do with work. They do not have a give and take between them. As kids Blitzø really wasn’t good at his job, but Fizz didn’t care. As adults Fizz didn’t ask Blitzø to be his bodyguard, he chose to be.
His two most cherished people, his mother and sister, he was not in a transaction with either of them. As they are working class, they had to be employed to support their family. If you guys think that’s a non genuine transactional relationship, then you have a very skewed privileged worldview.
His sister even now, is not in a transaction with him. She’s his sister no matter what and he wants to make sure she’s okay and to help her. Do you think he breaks into her rehab facility to get money?
Moxxie and Millie, he may feel like they wouldn’t want to be around him if not for being paid. But the opposite clearly isn’t true. He continuously approaches them outside of work, in Harvest Moon the first people he thinks of when he’s presented with a day off work for fun, is the two of them. Millie also allows him and Moxxie to stay at her parents home on the night off. That’s not transaction. If it was she’d ask him to pay for it. Both sides willingly spend time with each other outside work.
And the BIGGEST counterpoint of them all: Loona.
He gains practically nothing by keeping her around. Adopting her was his choice. She is hostile to him but he loves her anyway.
She is bad at her job, but despite that, despite not earning him anything, despite not gaining anything via transaction, he refuses to leave her or ever replace her. The thought sickens him and enrages him.
All of his romantic/sexual exes were also not ‘transactional’. He dated Verosika in his own words, he wasn’t her sex worker and she wasn’t his.
He simply doesn’t want to be in a relationship with a rich guy where he does all the taking as a pampered sugar baby and none of the giving. That’s because he’s independent, not that he can’t conceptualise relationships unless it’s for work. That’s evidently not the case.
TLDR;
For others, transaction of money occurred, but there was still a bond of personal intimacy there. For stolas, the intimacy was the currency. He is the only one who has ever requested intimacy itself as a service. He never stopped asking for it, he just provided a large gift then asked for more intimacy for free from now on, in exchange. That’s why it simply cannot be compared to the others.
He’s the only one who was buying his affection and that has left him feeling very violated and very confused.
#helluva boss#helluva boss critical#also. Viv probably likes that post because ‘stolitz’ is under a lot of heat right now. so any post that makes it sound nice. she’ll consume.#stolitz is a product she wants to sell you. not a story.

To reach The unreachable star
#gpose#gposers#ffxiv gpose#ffxiv#ffxiv screenshots#miqo'te#wol oc#ffxiv wol#lillian post#A while back I mentioned Lillian doing a pretty terrible thing in Ktisis that formed the nucleus of Meteion's anguish so we're hinting here#imagine being the driving force for the final days because your experience with Yotsuyu/Tsuyu and being a product of Gridania and#knowing your world and friends are being consumed while you're whiling away days in a relative paradise and how everything COULD be fixed#by the death of one child. Forget what the ascian said about being unable to change the past. You can never trust them.#This is the right course of action - for everyone. Go through Hermes to get to her right before her eyes too. That'll help certainly.#There is no courage or heroism in killing a hurt little girl.#She gets to spend the rest of endwalker fixing what she did. Confronting the Endsinger isn't about the fight. It can't be won with strength#only atoning and seeking forgiveness from Meteion will save everyone#and uh apologies for light nightmare fuel. I had something a bit more heroic in mind for the ninth photo that didn't work out.

Some of the posts I see here y'all gotta stop seeing fanfics as "bad dc takes". Like, it's perfectly fine to not like a trope that's popular in fanfic, but you gotta stop seeing it as character meta is what I'm saying. Fanfic writers are not canon writers, they do not owe you canon compliant, and you don't get to assume that what they're writing comes from a place of ignorance when there are so many reasons to include/not include something in your fic.
Like, allow me to use my own fics as example since they're the only one I have background info on the knowledge and motivations of the author:
-I wrote a fic with Lazarus Rage in it once. Do I know it's not canon? Absolutely. Do I think it's necessary for the understanding of Jason's character? Not at all, I think canon Jason is more interesting without the pit rage. I just wanted to write it once because it looked cathartic and you know what? It was. It was super cathartic. I wanted to write a story about the progression of a depressive episodes and using pit rage to talk about the feeling of loss of control with intense anger issues and sensation of loss and deep self-hatred afterwards, and i thought writing this is gonna feel good and it felt good, for me and for the readers.
-I'm also currently finishing another fic, in which I've simplified Tim's relationship with Jason's a lot (basically Tim is still haunted by Jason's ghost and Dick is still his favourite Robin but the victim blaming is much less intense and there's an intense, genuine admiration for Jason and happiness to get him back). Is it because I hate canon and its complexity? No, I love it, I love when character relationships are fucked up and they make a mess. I'd love to explore that in a different fic, even have the prompt already. But I'm writing a really intense fic about trauma, taboo and lack of communication around sexual abuse, and there are so many characters pov and things happening and I have to do this right because we're talking about things that happen to real people and not being accidentally insensitive or sending a shit message is more important to me than perfect canon compliance, and it's just not the place for it. This story isn't about tim, and it's not about victim-blaming. It's a fascinating can of worms to open, but I'm not gonna open it if I don't have the space to deal with it because I'm not gonna let worms roam freely all over my fanfic when I can choose not to include the worms in my story, because it might rely on base material but it's still a finite story that exists within its own scope because I'm not a comics writer, I'm a fanfic writer and my story doesn't exist as a pure extension of the comics and I don't owe you canon compliance. And how boring would that be if we could only write canon compliant stuff! No more coffee shop aus, no powers aus, fantasy aus, no more non canon ships between characters that hated eachother until the day they died (but had so much sexual tension)... Fanfic is not one single entity that takes place in a simplified version of the canon universe complete with consistent lukewarm tropes and watered down understanding of characters. Fanfics are rich and diverse and yeah canon compliant is great and i want more of it but the universe is so much wider and that's what makes it rich! Do some people write fanfic and also don't interact with or know canon? Sure, plenty of them. Does that fanfic reflect their opinion of canon? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. You don't know that. In the meantime, people are still creating extra content and enriching the fandom experience and if you don't like it, genuinely, the filter tags button is right there. That's not to say there are no racist or classist or sexist tropes in fanfics, but again that exists within the scope of that story. Bad writing exists in canon, and it exists in fanfics, and sometimes a story is canon compliant with a terrible message and sometimes a story is canon divergent with a terrible message and pushing away everyone who writes things that aren't canon compliant is not going to fix these issues in the dc fandom. Telling people to "not write the character at all if you're going to write them ooc" assumes your understanding of what is essential to the character is perfect and The Right Way to interact with a fandom and it's patronising and not only do you take the risk of looking like a moron the second you make a mistake, it is actual gatekeeping and the reason many people find getting into comics/fandom intimidating in the first place. (And it also shits on the potential of AUs like dark reflections, mafia etc. Of course Mafia Bruce who kills people is deeply ooc. These stories are still fun and it's not wrong to write them!)
"This story really should have addressed that thing that happens in canon" did it happen in the setting of the fic? No? Then shut up and let the fic tell its own story, it doesn't have to "address" anything it doesn't have space for. Again, don't like don't read is a thing. Fanfic enriches the fandom, it doesn't take away from it, but you know what can? Canon writing. I'm way more concerned with what dc is having batman represent nowadays than with fanfic I haven't read because I knew I wouldn't like it.
TLDR: It's understandable to be upset when people who don't interact with canon material at all try to assert their opinion on canon as the truth, especially if they call any attempt at disagreeing with the mischaracterization gatekeeping, but that doesn't make you immune to being a gatekeeper. Assuming you know a writer's knowledge and opinions on a character because of that one fic of them is naive and a misunderstanding of what fanfic is. Fanfic writers are still real people who give you cool stuff for free and you don't have to like it but you still have to be respectful about it, and all that negative energy you spend on rants about "bad character and" you've read in fanfics would be so much better spent on bad canon writing because these people do have the power to fuck your favourite character over and they do owe you canon compliance, and with the amount of effort some fanfic writers put into their fics compared to some of the writers who get payed to write canon, you guys could stand to be more respectful about fanfics.
#dc#dc comics#batfam#rant#batfam fanfiction#ao3 vent#to be clear i am fine#i get very little hate people in my comments are awesome and i rarely take tumblr posts personally#however i do get protective of other batfam writers when I see comments or posts I know are about the kind of things they write#because I know how much work gets into writing and if that was the feedback I felt for putting these stories into the world#i would feel so disgusted and discouraged from interacting with fandom/writing fanfic#anyway be nice with fanfic writers guys#they're doing it for free choosing to share with you you didn't pay for it it's not a product to consume#don't like don't read

Lowkey annoyed and amused by all the people in the Dune tag saying they didn't like Dune 2 because it made adaptational changes but they don't even elaborate on why the changes are bad, or are open to any of them as improvements, just that they don't like that they changed things.
Like this isn't about people who are actually giving it thought and are looking at the film with a critical lens. It's just a baffling number of people expecting a 1 to 1 recreation and saying that the movie was terrible because Denis had the nerve to not make every single Fremen character uncritically suck Paul's dick the whole film
#anyway uncritical media consumers when they realise adaptations are more like a dialogue between artists spanning space and time#and not just assembly line marvel products#yes most of the people complaining are mostly just whining about chani having values#notably i haven't seen these same people complaining about the exclusion of thufir#Why's that huh#justice for thufir#dune#dune part 2

If I ran for office all I would do is read off upton Sinclair quotes from the jungle from 100 years ago side by side with boarshead factory inspection reports 
#I actually do think I could run a killer campaign on food safety id just be like the food that you spend your hard earned money on should#not be making you sick companies are violating their contract with you and your rights as an American and consumer by making lackluster#product. etc
