#I don’t have twitter btw

[aboutcustardcreams]

intrusive thoughts probably nobody asked for. I’m thinking of chopping my hair, which is absolutely insane cuz I always thought I’d never do that in my life. And yet… maybe it’s the heat, literally driving me nuts or maybe it’s the urge to do something crazy only to regret it later on.

*sigh*

WWTDD

i know this will be a controversial statement for some people on this website, but you guys need to understand that being a radical communist with zero awareness of the nuance of living on planet earth is really not very different from being an alt-right extremist.

if you’re past the point of using logical thinking and understanding that societies and politics are complex and can be wildly different from one place to another, you’re just a fanatic, in spite of the place in the spectrum you place yourself on. you’re too swayed and brainwashed by propaganda. you’re just a blind fanatic, and your agenda becomes dangerous for real people living in the real world.

i usually stay quiet because i don’t like to engage in fandoms of any kind anymore, but the things i’ve been shown from iwtv twitter is concerning. idk what assad/armand fans think they’re trying to achieve by disrespecting jacob, delainey, sam, and the rest of the cast by saying armand is the sole reason anyone watches this show and that he’s the best actor on the show etc, but yall are not doing yourselves any favors. this is not tvd. this is not the cw. using assad for agenda shipping purposes because you hate sam/lestat, and reducing louis to an object or a prize to be won, and trying to knock louis/jacob out of his lead position on a show where he is the best/most nuanced written gay BLACK male character in history is disgusting and so extremely disrespectful to jacob who is literally the cutest/kindest human being ever.

this show is a team effort. everyone involved with iwtv are master class actors, writers, set designers, etc and when it comes to acting—to credit one actor for the show’s success is very off putting. (especially when you take into account delainey had only two weeks to prepare for claudia and gave the performance of a lifetime.) there are many who do not engage with this fandom because of takes like this and all this will do is put people off assad/armand which is the last thing anyone needs. cast members of color and characters of color should not be pit against each other on the ONLY show on tv right now that allows them to be great.

HES COMING TO ADELAIDE AND PERTH HOLY SHIT

At this point it’s literally just there for good publicity points, don’t fucking convince me otherwise.

I understand why fit viewers are upset that what fit meant as a joke is being taken seriously, but like Tubbo didn’t know that. This is miscommunication the musical!!!! What the hell is Tubbo supposed to think when fit pulls foolish aside and asks if he really wants to work with tubbo? Like that seems really serious and genuine, especially bc he had to evesdrop to hear it! Like it’s really not that deep but to qtubbo it is.

I genuinely don’t think anyone is wanting fit dead or upset with him as a character (aside from not reaching out but that’s on qtubbo too), we just take things how qtubbo takes them and qtubbo overhearing someone asking if they actually want to be his friend while he’s already insecure is hurtful.

Not everything is negative about another character, we can be angsty and say how much we wish fit would reach out and be upset over what he’s saying while still liking him and understanding that the comment was meant to be jokier then how people took it. People view characters how the characters view characters, qtubbo was hurt so we’re hurt. Fit was joking so the huevos don’t see a problem. We all gotta understand that we come from different understandings and that’s okay!!!

This gave me hope that most people are normal about Noah and Twitter is just the one cesspool:

i’ve always said social media is a bubble, it’s already the way social media is designed. every single platform has a set of algorithms that gives you content tailored just for you so this is all an illusion. everything we see on our timelines is intrinsically biased.

c’mon just look at the recent us election. trump is the most despised man on earth online but guess what? he won in a landslide, first republican in around 20 years to win the popular vote and he took with him every single swing state. to me it’s more than obvious that there’s a big disconnection from reality and social media after witnessing those results because if you go by what’s going on online, you’d think kamala was even going to flip texas and win this election in a reagan style landslide.

let’s be honest here if the keyboard activists on twitter can’t even make trump jobless, somebody who is universally hated online and is actually in a position of power, why are we taking them seriously? they obviously won’t boycott shit even if random tweets saying “boycott stranger things” get 300K likes when we just witnessed that when the time comes to make actual change, they can’t even bother leaving their houses to vote.

furthermore, now that i’m bring up this topic. if we analyse this from another pov, clearly most of americans (netflix’s biggest audience) don’t mind trump being a hardcore israel supporter so i’d assume real people also don’t give a shit if noah is or not one. let’s be for real here, they might not even know what he looks like or which one of the boys he is. that’s the reality, this week we just got the numbers to back it up. this narrative that season 5 is going to flop because of noah or that he’s so hated that he’ll never work again is nonsensical and only exists on twitter.

social media is all performative and they are all bark and no bite. it’s easier and fun to bully somebody online like they do with noah than actually do meaningful work like going to vote. people just say stuff online to get engagement which equals to either social validation or monetary gain. it’s all an echo chamber with algorithms that match you with people who think just like you.

apparently people are mad about me saying “the show never let dany look ugly” lol

i am Once Again Saying it was the popular opinion that emilia can’t act, doesn’t look like dany, and michele’s styling of dany was ugly and bad until people decided d&d’s butchering of dany's arc was a masterpiece except for the last season conveniently. also that last one lmao.

i hate it when people gas up posse and bat’s discography and then throw in bb needs to change up their sound as if posse doesn’t have 3 bubblegum pop songs rebranded and bat doesn’t have 3 spoopy songs of the same vibe 😤

[room215]

crazy to think about the fire emblem fans back in the day who would say something along the lines of “hey it’s kinda weird to have a character whose main trait is that he’s a misogynist, like his backstory is written to excuse him being as awful towards women as he wants and we’re meant to sympathize with him and that’s weird right” only to have about twenty different users named some variation of faerghusfucker69 in their notifs like “oh so you believe that women can do no wrong?? you aren’t taking this fictional man’s tragic backstory seriously?? do you hate abuse victims???”

[confettiinred]

Okay so it turns out the brilliant Tangelene Bolton (creator of Warrior Nun’s stunning soundtrack, including Beatrice and Ava’s beautiful theme) has read Avatrice fanfiction.

Every time I think I can’t love this cast and crew more- 💖
