#IT GOES BOTH WAYS YALL

[itsmyturntobeme]

People wanna talk about how loving Taylor Swift clouds your judgement into thinking she's always great but don't wanna talk about how hating her clouds your judgement to acknowledge how talented she is...

Mean König this, loser König that blah blah blah

How about instead König being the introvert he is with weirdly specific hobbies to match. I'm thoroughly convinced this guy has an army of miniatures (which he all HAND PAINTED, thank you very much).

How about König being frugal and reusing a lot of things or DIY'ing them himself. Things are always too expensive these days and why on earth would he buy a new one when he has one he picked up years ago that works just fine?? C'mon, he made a mask out of a t-shirt, can't convince me that's the only thing he's reused or repurposed.

He's not a gross, disgusting pervert who snorkels with the sludges of humanity in the bottom of the degenerate barrel. [Going to go on the record to say write what you want, that's your choice. But at the same time, it's my choice to say: Genuinely, what the fuck to a LOT of what I've seen in the König tag]

He's also not an UWU shy guy who cries because you took his mask off. Please, his voice lines are so cocky, he's not going to sob and cower because some jackass tried harassing him these days. He's a damn good solider, he's proud of it, he knows it and knows how to use it

Still going to call him baby girl, doesn't make him any less of one, he's just not a wimp with no backbone who crumples into a heap because someone mildly made fun of him. He breaks backs, I'm sure he's kept at least a spine of his own (at least as a souvenir)

Social anxiety doesn't always mean being ridiculously sensitive and the lack of research put into it when it comes to writing König realllllly shows. Proper representation matters and when it's reduced to being a stuttering, co-dependent mess who can barely function on their own and is just overly clinging, it's not cute - it's hurting the narrative around it and further perpetuating untrue and negative stereotypes.

Social anxiety means many different things to many different people and shows itself in so so many ways. No two people experience it or feel it the exact same way, but it's helping NO ONE when you're ignoring blatant characterization of it and how it presents for someone to change it so you can meld them into a stereotypical box

Rant over, I just love König so much (he was my initial draw to this whole fandom) and hate seeing what's done to him in some really, REALLY deplorable extremes

Going to probably write a König reader insert at some point out of spite alone at this rate

yall are about to piss me off by not having any PASSING basic knowledge of the way the u.s. military manipulates its recruits into joining by typing up one of your uninformed, unresearched, unempathetic, individualistic, unbelievably annoying posts about how 100% of the people in the military ended up there because they just Love America So Damn Much! they're extremely mature and informed at time of recruitment, they can totally leave anytime they want, they totally had tons of other avenues in life they could've taken, there was no rush at all to get income as fast as possible, and everyone in the military also totally is part of the combat divisions and personally enjoys being IN the military very much, big believers of violence. everyone in the military is shooting guns all day, that's how that works. they LOVE BLOODSHED. also I love the "amewicans haha" twang to this type of shit because you're actually TOTALLY stealing our Thing, which is turning systemic issues into Individual Issues. Instead of talking about the powers that be, it's so Personal Choice up in here. It's, "well you shouldn't have done it then. I totally wouldn't because I know better." you don't wanna talk about the military industrial complex as a whole, and you don't want to talk about recruiters, you just want to pin the blame on Specific Individual People one-by-one, as if they're responsible for the system that they're being ground up in. someone was in the military? bad person, no matter what. it's easier to believe that, I guess, than to acknowledge that Normal People (with high school educations) are manipulated and incentivized into joining a system that is Bad. at like age 18. but yeah no that 18 year old should have just been smarter lol haha anyway here are some screenshots for no particular reason

side note this reply of someone going "umm just get loans and go into a high paying field it's easy XD" as a direct response to someone trying to explain how most americans joining the military are being funneled in that direction out of a need for money.

and another person who Decided that americans join the military just CLENCHING their teeth thinking of other people, and not thinking completely selfishly about their own selves and their own income/housing/healthcare.

A thing that I find really funny is that the gf fandom portrays fiddleford as this sweet man who has never done anything wrong and that ford mistreated so badly. And like, to some degree that's true, Ford was kind of an asshole at times (though a lot of it was because of Bill, but that's a conversation for another time), but let's not forget that it goes BOTH WAYS. Fiddleford literally used the memory gun MULTIPLE TIMES on Ford when he said that he (reasonably so) didn't like the concept of the memory gun. And he terrorized his ex-wife with a monster robot he build. Also he was a cult leader. Let's not forget that.

I hope your Creator feels better soon, even if this is a difficult time right now.

I myself have been through a lot, so I understand the importance of having to rely on sonas/OCs for comfort.

You must be very special, for your Creator to love and trust you this much, when it comes to her emotions.

even though i find satoru to be most at balance with yin and yang if i had to choose i do find satoru to be yin leaning - he's always allowing when it comes to himself; he allows for the higher ups to use him as a weapon; he chooses to stay and allow himself to be used to protect his students and he then allowed those students to use his body after his death — passiveness is a large part of yin and is incorporated into every other fragement of yin

tldr: he's mothering our next nations

When Sebek finally opened the letter, it did not end in congratulations, cheers, and overjoyed shouts.

Instead, it ended in pity, small whimpers, and absolute silence.

Which was saying something, considerinf the fact that he was the only one present for the moment. Malleus and Lilia were already busy preparing for the new school year as housewarden and vice, while Silver was sparring against a used dummy in the training grounds.

They were not there when Sebek let the piece of paper slip from his hands, dancing in the air before it settled on the floor. They were not there when Sebek bit his tongue, small tears escaping from the corners of his eyes.

They were not there when Sebek Zigvolt cried his heart out, wailing for all to hear.

But "all" was only him, himself and the one typing out all these words.

Malleus, Lilia, and Silver would enter the new school year in Night Raven College, hopeful for the days to come, as soon their last member would finally join their side.

...just not in the way they hoped.

Sebek Zigvolt did not go to Night Raven College.

very much dislike ppl saying zoros ep was better than sanjis bc they're only saying that bc zoros ep was primarily focused, both in the animation and the theme, around fighting and being strong. it encompassed zoros character, goals, growth, development, and physical strength, and that all revolves around being a super strong and skilled swordsman. the theme matched what happened on screen. sanjis fight and theme was focused on his growth as a person. I will say this until I'm blue in the face but Sanji's physical strength is ultimately unimportant to his overall character. his episode didn't revolve around displaying his physical strength. it focused on displaying his growth as a person. Zoro gained power through physical strength, Sanji gained his power through mental and emotional strength. y'all think sanjis ep wasn't as good as zoros bc you're focusing on his physical fight and physical strength instead of the mental fight he won and emotional strength he achieved. the theme didn't match the animation (I mean it did but if you're only focused on fights and physical strength I guess you wouldnt notice that either). these two episodes were somewhat of an overall climax for both of their characters. THIS is what they have both been working and fighting to achieve. both of their episodes were huge moments of growth and validation for their characters. both were beautifully animated and both were very cool and amazing moments for the both of them. as individuals who have different weaknesses they're trying to overcome.

Some of yall deeply underestimate how much some cis men are threatened by trans men and our masculinity. How theres so many cis dudes out there that want to rape us, thinking that will make us detransition. How many incels out there are mad at us for betraying womanhood and not sucking their dick. How much they want to force us to detransition, how much they want to kill us and force us into hiding which, to me, minus well be killing us since theyre smothering who we are for the sake of a status quo. We shake their fundamental understanding of the world. Its one thing for a GIRL to be a tomboy to them. They think its cute, like a baby pretending to be an adult. Its a whole other thing for someone percieved as a woman to try to actually be a man to them. They think thw fact we have the gal to assume we can escape their grasp, to escape the kitchen or whatever tf, means we're disrespecting them and trying to "destroy" them, rather than what it really is, us trying to be independent. We're the exact thing these types of cis men hate. Sometimes they tolerate (emphasis here bc im not saying they accept yall. Dont twist my words)trans women bc they fetishize them but they want to completely eradicate us becayse we threaten the patriarchy by virtue of deciding we dont need a man to take care of us, we want to be the man that takes care of ourselves.
