'I'm so delusional, I think this character would like me!'

Say it with me:

It is not a delusion, it is a daydream.

You'll know what a delusion feels like when you can't go a day without terror because there are cameras on you at all times / God personally hates you specifically and wants you dead / there's worms inside of you eating you alive and rotting you / you're alien Messiah and there are lizard people taking over the world

Watching people liveblog the Dream stream(I'm not watching that, no way) and the only thing of value from this situation is that I learned Dream joked about beating Badboyhalo's dog in the past

Gonna say it again, "Just stop consuming the genre" is THE WORST POSSIBLE RESPONSE to someone complaining about the lack of representation in their preferred genre!! And "Consume other stuff too" is not much better!!! I don't care how much you think varying media consumption is a Good and Holy lifestyle, not everyone wants to do that! There is no obligation to do that and there should not be! Because it's fucking entertainment. It's not a college major.

And! And and and. I would be remiss to not point out that when you tell someone, "If you want well written (minority) just get out of (genre fandom)" you are, regardless of your motivations, rhetorically aligning yourself with the exact same bigots who just want the pro-representation crowd to shut up and go away.

going down the ereader rabbithole has been kind of wild like I don't think I ever considered how challenging it would be to find alternatives that tick all the boxes when amazon has the ereader market cornered...so many of my usual buying habits and strategies are just non-applicable bc there's next to no secondhand market for anything that's not a kindle

it's such a shame because I learned that there's all this cool stuff out there, but they're next to impossible to get here because they're still so niche that they end up being incredibly expensive and difficult to find....it sucks so much though bc kindle really needs the competition their products are so limited compared to what's out there internationally

"it wasn't the right decision to send me away"

??? really??? did she really just fucking say that???

what. the. fuck.

SHE WAS SENT AWAY BECAUSE SHE WAS TRYING TO FUCKING KILL US ALL

but NOOOOOOOO

it wasn't a "good decision"

yes, my dearest sister, we should have let you stay with us while we were actively in danger of you harming any one of us (including yourself) at any time and where we all feared for our lives.

LIKE IM SORRY I WANT TO LIVE?!?!?

i- i just can't fucking do this right now oml

AND WE'RE THE BAD GUYS?? WE'RE THE BAD GUYS. REALLY?! REALLY?

Sorry if this is controversial but trying to talk about music on TikTok is so exhausting why is there a new argument over what band is what genre every few months!!! Or when a song gets popular and now it's a 'TikTok song' reduced to fifteen seconds out of the whole thing!!!

having eczema and being afraid of the dark sucks bc you're just super itchy with the blanket on but you feel like the blanket is your only barrier between the eldritch horrors everywhere and you

[kkatastrophic]

THAT'S IT I'M PLAYING THE LAST TRIAL ONCE AND FOR ALL

"but there just AREN'T any well-written women in aNyTHiNg I interact with"

DO TEN MINUTES OF RESEARCH.

WATCH BETTER SHOWS. READ BETTER BOOKS.

THERE IS A VERY SIMPLE SOLUTION HERE.

[reanimatedgh0ul]

see the real reason why dash hates sm danny is bc danny once told him that the mcu is garbage and dash being a mcu stan then proceeded to beat the shit out of danny for saying that lol

[snoweylily]

does anyone else ever see the words “TikTok made me read it” and just immediately put the book back down again?

[solaaresque]

day 874392857 of ??? where i am so fucking tired of this house and the people inside it that killing myself is looking better and better each day :/

The Snyderverse version of Superman making him a symbol of post-9/11 trauma and nationalistic xenophobia probably did the most harm to the character since The Dark Knight Returns' characterisation of him as a cynical lapdog for an oppressive government.

"Superman is just One Bad Day away from being a Nazi! Mary Sue Superman is boring, Injustice/Man of Steel/TDKR Superman is a more nuanced take on the character" actually Superman is kind and strong and believes in humanity, even if he stumbles and makes mistakes sometimes, and I don't buy that he'd become a global dictator or a living tungsten rod for some stupid dudebro angst reason. Die mad about it.
