#I hate black and white thinking

Honestly, I was kind of done with the online left when people claimed you're a real life bad person if you
*checks notes*
Play the video game The Tenants (and similar)
Because you play as a landlord, and landlords are evil, and because you play as one, you basically are one, and you're therefor evil
No really. That's a discussion I had.
I tried to teach them the difference between real life and video games, between fantasy and reality, but no dice
I got blocked the moment I said that I'm anti-gun irl but still play shooter games every so often
Anyway. Many of the "progressive moral online left" would totally blame video games for real life violence
#Online discourse has warped your perception of what an actual problem is#And here's another fun bit:#I do not think that all landlords and renting in general is evil in general#I hate black and white thinking#Whatever happened to nuance#You know that a lot of things you hate about landlords/renting are bad people exploiting fuzzy laws?#Personally I'd actually rather rent than own#Takes a shit ton of responsibility off me#If the heating breaks down I don't need to pay anything or go into debt to fix it#What you hate is bad laws 95% of the time#I can't afford to buy either#But anyway#Try to learn some nuance is my point#Try to talk to people and learn different viewpoints#I'm happy to explain to you my reasoning btw

I’m glad they gave the actor another hairstyle because every black person is absolutely tired of the Killmonger mohawk/comb over 😭!!! One day, we will be free- but anyway, it looks like the name of the anime is “Kawagoe Boys Sing!”
#never heard of it before but aww#this doesn’t even seem real what the hell#I won’t read any comments for obvious reasons#I’m sure they’re awful#white and nb geeks hate to see black ppl simply existing in the spaces that they think belongs to them its 👎🏾#rambling

In my mind they are worsties
#my red black and white NA spammers#i know wrio would hate her so bad#but man they have alot in common on how they run things#i think they would be weird friends that can kill each other#the only thing stopping them is a shared passion for tea#and murder#lyss' sketch#genshin impact#genshin fanart#genshin#wriothesley#arlecchino

I think depictions of Anya being cruel to Curly or drawing out his suffering are artful and chilling but completely miss the point of the story and her character.
I'm not saying she doesn't deserve to have that "I told you so" moment with him but not in something callous or cold. Even if that is how it happened, she'd immediately feel guilty cause at that point she's not tormenting her tormenter or even the person truly at fault. She's doing something cathartic, similar to how Jimmy likely hits Curly to release rage he can't against the rest of the crew. She'd see herself as no different when she'd come back from the moment and see Curly cowering at her. She wants someone to take responsibility but how does being cruel to the defenseless help? Why would she want the power Jimmy has over her over Curly?
The idea of her extending someone else's pain is just so against the struggles she already faces and how she can't even bring herself to cause someone pain even to help them. Her very desire is to release herself from her own suffering and I doubt she'd even fine some sort of guilty release in being cruel to another.
#anya is not a character i see taking agency or indulging in cathartic behaviors#not knowingly like i see her as a character trapped in her head and maybe in the scenario she's cruel to Curly she is envisioning Jimmy#in his place but its not a story about justice or those deserving of punishment and those not like its the opposite of people projecting#their issues on the wrong people and saying things to the wrong people and doing things they shouldn't but anya uniquely falls out of it as#she is subjected to a lot of it but it is also not something she wants to subject another person to like you are doing what Jimmy does and#placing ur rage into another persons and viewing their actions through your eyes like she'd more likely yell at him than do harm or#cause him more pain like at least make it in character#but also she clearly doesn't want to see jimmy or curly in the same light and doesnt because she still repeatedly goes to Curly for comfort#and protection and god there's like concepts that need to be applied to characters individually and then the story as a whole#we can not view the game through only one themed lens less we forget to inspect the compounding factor of Anya is so much more than girl#that needs to be allowed to go off but a woman that simply wants right to be done by her and no more harm like she doesn't want to be aroun#the suffering like idk but some of yall would just benefit from like understanding that people are inherently grey with the capabilities of#black n white thinking or actions#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#anya mouthwashing#i like her the most but then again i am defensive of all women in media and hate when people change the way the character would take agency#for themselves like yes I want her to tweak out but she just wouldn't and I like seeing realistic depictions of a woman suffering the way#she is like shes not the type at the end of the movie to have a one liner but feel a shallow freedom cause she needs to realistically heal#idk but its just like there is an obbsession forming with making her character her pain and not how she handles and navigates the issue

To be honest I think both, "Victor was a mentally ill teenager who had just lost his mother and was absolutely not in a good state of mind at the time of the creature's creation and is absolutely worthy of sympathy, especially for how ultimately a single moment ends up in his entire family being murdered." and, "Victor still created and (however unintentionally) abandoned a sapient being who he had the responsibility to care for and desecrated corpses in the process of making said creature, almost certainly without the consent of the original bodies nor their families," Can both be true at the same time.
Similarly, "Creature deserved to have someone care for and love him and he never would've done any of the morally abhorrent things he did had he simply been treated with the basic respect a living creature deserves," and, "Creature murdering innocent people, including a literal child, is inexcusable and how he was treated does not justify him taking it out on innocent people," are also both true.
#frankenstein#mary shelley#frankenstein's creature#victor frankenstein#to be honest i'm just a bit tired of the lack of nuance with victor or creature takes#i don't believe in being overly harsh abt them tho.#i'm guilty of having a black and white mindset when i was a teen#and victor hate does often have a relationship with outright ableism#but i don't think all criticism of victor's character should be considered ableism

I AM FEMME AS IN GRASS AS IN DIRT AS IN TREE BARK AS IN WEEDS SPROUTING THROUGH THE SIDEWALK CEMENT. FEMME AS IN GENDER NONCONFORMITY AS IN FUCK YOU MY FEMININITY IS WHAT *I* SAY IT IS.

FUCK IS IT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND?!???
#personal#i am emotional yes#over the years ive had this blog I've made a few posts abt being femme#nd whether they're serious or jokey..... inevitably someone in the tags goes “ohhh yeah bc pink”#or in the case of what inspired this post: someone going “what about the pink ones” on my praying mantis post#and im just.#sick of it. im sick of femme being equated to pink and frilly girlie behaviors.#im sick of femme being equated to skirts and heels. to makeup. to skincare. to pristine nails exactly almond shaped.#im sick of ppl acting like All femmes aspire to this shit. im sick of femms being reduced to this shit.#and i love pink! i love pink! my phone theme is quite literally just black and pink all over.#im just. so tired of any expression of Femme identity being shoehorned into being a Specific type of femininity#especially as someone who DOES get dysphoric wearing skirts. wearing dresses. embodying the femme aesthetic yall are so set on making#if u guys wanna rb this i truly dont care#i just needed to scream#and this is one small thing#but the 2nd largest category of anon hate i have gotten since making this blog is str8 up homophobia from other “queer” folks#saying i cant be femme bc of how i present. calling me slurs (and using them as such) bc they cant understand femme as anything but that#my wife and i have our users in our personal discord server set as 2 different things of anon hate ive gotten#i have had OTHER FEMMES tell me i am not femme. femmes who Know im femme who still call me butch. femmes who ive corrected and been blocked#-by bc of it. the number 1 largest demographic of queerfolk who have me blocked rn is TME femmes who embody pink also#and i dont think its a coincidence at all. (and i know this bc i go to try and follow these ppl bc they get rbed on my dash & i cant)#and ik their blogs arent deleted bc some of them don't block my wife (tall. white. butch) and it cant be politics cause her and i rb#a lot of the same political shit (fuck. i think she rbs More than i do even. this is genuinely mainly a nsft blog)#and usually i don't say anything but im having a bad day so i get to be angry about this and if anyone fucking tries me i will block u#idc if we've been mutuals 4ever. im judt so tired of feeling like i am not Enough as a femme bc i dont embody this shit#im sick of this lameass lip service to he/him gnc femmes etc when the thin white 50s housewife femme is still what is preferred and loved#im sick of this lamesss lip service when y'all feel entitled to theorizing on other femmes genders bc u cant conceptualize a femme who does#wanna be hypetfeminine. im sick of it. im sick of it. im sick of it.#celebrity bun

peppino and noise character studies
in this essay i will explain why i am the only one to understand these characters
#pizza tower#peppino spaghetti#peppino#the noise#noise pizza tower#sklart#ive been meaning to make a character study on these two for a bit#unfortunately something absurdley petty on my end motivated me to do so#genuinely it is a huge pet peeve when people give noise the twirly stache out of costume#not only does it hinder the fact that pep and noise are so visually opposite and have like 2 things in common that way#that being their skin is white and they have black hair#but it also removes another visual indicator of making The Noise and Theodore different people#noise is a character he plays#sure some aspects of said character show in theo#like his shit eating tendencies and his pettiness#but theyre Different#if an au has it then thats fine i think#and the last thing i want is people using this as a way to harass artists#but oouughhh KEEP THE FAKE STACHE ITS A PART OF THE BRILLIANT CHARACTET DESIGN#MAKING IT REAL WEAKENS THE CONTRAST#AAHHHH!!!#THE THINGS THEYRE SUPPOSED TO HAVE IN COMMON IS PERSONALITY!!!#THEYRE BOTH PETTY LOSERS!!!#THEY BOTH PROVOKE EACH OTHER CONSTANTLY#AAAHHH!!!#thank you for coming to my ted talk#as an undertale fandom vet its my biggest pet peeve when people misunderstand characters i like#no hate to anyone ever. do what you want forever#but also Only I Get These Guys#one day i will make an analysis of the similarities they DO share

jayvik shippers PLEASE be normal about Mel & Sky challenge, part 2, difficulty rating: (impossible)
#why do so many of you seem to not understand the concept of loving more than one person at a time#I like jayvik but I hate to see so many people dismiss & deride two black female characters for the sake of their beloved white boys more#the whole 'mel is just manipulating jace!!1!' shtick was already outdated by the end of season 1 let alone now.#if you STILL think that mel is just cynically using him then it's obvious that you haven't been paying any actual attention to the show.#& when it comes to Sky it's true that Viktor's primary feeling towards her atm is guilt. & reasonably so.#but I think claiming that he had zero actual affection for her outside that guilt is a bit much & really doesn't do any favors for viktor#personally I think season 1 made it abundantly clear that the only real obstacle to jayvik was JAYCE HIMSELF.#season 2 episode 2 is basically the first time that hasn't been true so far#arcane#jayvik#mel medarda#sky young#fandom bs#shipping bs

'thats not his role in the story!' hm i wonder what the point of it is then. hm i wonder what the dead pixel scene means. hm i wonder what wrong organ are trying to say with the context of 'awesome male friendship' and 'corporate hell where the only woman onboard is constantly under ridicule, abused or forcibly forgotten yet is the catalyst' if not this. hm i wonder how curly's physical agony being a direct parallel to anya's mental agony, stripped of voice, agency, just like her, and being forced to watch what happens while not doing jack shit, just like he used to, plays a part in this. i wonder what the moral of him being the final girl says about living with the consequences of your inaction, because of sentimentality, because of status, career and social. hm i wonder whatever the fuck this game was trying to say. hm i wonder what else is on this person's blog Oh Lord there's yaoi penice.
#mouthwashing#mouthwashing spoilers#sa mention#dont go after this person but i hooooope they rethink. their view of the story.#but god im gonna squeeze lemons in my eyes soon#taking this game away from yall until you unlearn misogyny#ooooh curlys just sooo sweet poor thaaang oh my oh my youre looking sooo far into thissss haaahaaa#its all just a misunderstanding!!!! anya didnt speak clearly enough!!!! noooo its not on my beautiful blue eyed rascal hahaaa#ok look curlys an insane character i love analyzing him and i VERY MUCH dont want people to think im like villanizing the guy#the entire point is that otherwise pretty chill people can fuck up OF THEIR OWN FAULT AND BIAS and then learn. painfully. what not to do.#and by chill i also dont mean holy water pure ok. distinctions.#and id really hate people taking either side of the argument on curlys morality. esp considering his appearance (for both.)#just don't. fucking make baby ass black and white arguments#this game should be behind a childproof lock in the shape of a reading comprehension test abt crime and punishment#im super supportive of people trying to think outside the norm about art like mouthwashing and explaining their own musings#and talking with others and trying to understand how to argument their thoughts which is what the op of the post this was left on was doing#being genuinely curious and open#but brother i draw the line at so merrily denying the main fucking point of the character in the catalyst event#GOOD GOD make this game only accessible to 35+ yo's with no internet access#the contents of their blog were just the cherry on top#unblocking them in hopes they see this ig

Hi,
I saw promo for the new Gmmtv merch calendar for EarthMix and I immediately thought of your theory. Do you think this means anything for Ossan's Love Thailand?
(For context most other pairs both wear (mostly) black. Only a few have one in black one in white (aside from EarthMix also JoongDunk, FirstKhaotung, WinnySatang, GreatInn, OhmLeng, and MarkOhm).
Of those EarthMix are the only ones where the colors don't match up with the order of their names in the ship name.)
Anon, regarding my Wild Ass Theory about the blacks and whites and EarthMix, the calendar and the colors are on brand for the couple.
I've featured them before because they have consistently stated that Mix is black (dark) and Earth is white (light).

There have been times when they "switch" but even then Mix isn't full white.

So I think they have been telling us exactly what they wanted to say, but people aren't listening.

And it always has been.

[172] Fanart for my stupid game (affectionate)
#172#xisuma#xisumavoid#daily xisuma#hermitcraft#I don't call it stupid because I hate it. it is a descriptor and a compliment#I have put maybe 5-6 hours into it. all but 1 of its graphics are stolen from doom and hexen. the one that is NOT stolen is a pixel art of#xisuma's face with the background just white. none of the aspect ratios for my sprites are fine#the background is a static image of DOOM REVENANT (with poor ratioing)#the gameplay is hilariously simple (dodge the torso guys coming from either side and collect the glowing blue balls that took me 3 hours#to figure out how to animate)#the menus are 15 point Ariel font on black background with little to no attention to to how it looks#my sound design is looping sigil 2 intermission music. comically evil taunts I stole from hexen. hexen flask pickup noise.#and of course when you die there is a scream of someone falling to their death (that I stole from hexen)#regardless I am going to go spend another 20 minutes playing. I think I've succeeded at game design
