People are always saying things like “you shouldn’t do this because it removes a characters agency” and other variations of.

And i just want people to understand that removing a character’s agency is not inherently bad. Sometimes that’s what the story is about!! People in real life often lack agency and control of their own life and even actions in cases of extreme manipulation. It is a thing that happens to people and sometimes it is a thing depicted in fiction on purpose.

“Don’t write him like that, it removes his agency” - that’s the point. That IS the point. Some of us enjoy exploring what it does to a person to be manipulated or controlled in whatever form that takes and also how you might heal from it.

saw someone who said subspace needs to get buffed bcause "he doesnt do enough damage even as support" and "his moves are too easy to dodge"

How on gods green earth are you playing subspace? What maps are you using? Can you Aim your Mouse at the Opponent and Left Click? HE HAS INFINITE AMMO BEYOND THE TRIPMINES THEMSELVES

"the only thing useful in his kit is his ult" SUBSPACE IS LITERALLY ONE OF THE BEST BANHAM/KATANA COUNTERS BECAUSE HE SLOWS THEM DOWN AND MAKES THEM TAKE POISON DAMAGE? HE.... POISONS HIS ENEMIES?

Hes not going to Do as much damage because he is not Supposed to Kill his enemies. He is supposed to help do enough damage for his teammates to finish them off BECAUSE HES A SUPPORT

AND HIS ULT IS SO EASY TO AVOID IN COMPARISON TO HIS Q OR M2? YOU NEED TO STOP PLAYING SUBSPACE HE DOESNT NEED A DAMN BUFF GO HOME

I gave it all of 24 hours.

And you know what? No one is gonna see it, and that’s fine. It is! I am a nobody here, *crickets* just like all of my other art pages, anywhere else. Posting this as if it will shame me in the slightest is like saying my first f word at a live concert. Aint no one paying attention.

Therefore- out of clear cathartic nonsense in the disguise of attention seeking (HELLOOOO hahaha j/k nobody look) or perhaps both- here it is.

Child of the Crystal World, everyone. the very large image that was the main page of my website all of 20 years ago. If you were on the internet back then, all of that nonsense makes a bit of sense. (If not, i really cant help you, sorry, i’m not gonna explain it) I had Photoshop 6 and a mouse. I was amazing.

I might just see how many of these I can post before I start apologizing.

I truly fucking despise the new season of Doctor Who being promoted as one that will be unique for showing the Doctor's queerness or whatever the fuck. There's this attitude under all this promo like the 15th Doctor is the first queer Doctor as if a) the 9th Doctor didn't kiss a man b) the Doctor didn't canonically change genders and c) when they were a woman was CANONICALLY in love with another woman. like HELLO??? I don't even like 13 and yaz that much and think they should've been written better, but there's something so misogynistic and revisionist about people acting like David Tennant saying Isaac Newton was hot in the anniversary special is "confirming the Doctor is queer" or that Ncuti's doctor will be the first queer Doctor. like...i hate it. This whole line of marketing reeks of Disney's "first Gay™" style marketing and I fucking hate it.

Also, I'm aware there's a slight layering issue with the text in the first panel - unfortunately my tablet broke this week so short of delaying the page there's nothing I can do right now! I hope it's not too distracting and I'll replace the image when I have it sorted! 💕

my one (1) take on like trigger lists or whatever the fuck the kids call them these days is that the more specific it is and the more it sends you into a breakdown the less you shoukd fucking tell people about it. if you have a bug phobia and want people not to send you bug photos thats fine but if the mention of an obscure swedish black and white 1917 film that your mom used to watch pushes you to the brink of a week long panic attack then dont fucking put it on ur fuckin rentry or tell a discord server full of strangers about it

something about the discourse on if fanfiction is Good or not has bugged me for years and i think i finally put my finger on why: even if reading and writing fanfiction is bad for women-- because let’s not pretend all these judgements don’t hinge on whether or not women are having fun in the wrong way--it’s a voluntary activity that people enjoy doing, and that should be that.

fanfic degrades your morals-- cool so does football. look at the way football players and football fans behave. when’s the last time supernatural fans set pittsburgh on fire, or tore up a strip club, or assaulted flight attendants? fuck, it would be cool if fanfic was on the level of literally any national sport.

fanfic lures you into sexual activity you might not otherwise have engaged in-- so does dancing and drinking and especially drinking and dancing, activities women are also warned against but have enjoyed anyway for thousands of fucking years.

fanfic is a waste of time when you could be reading or writing Literature-- almost no one does that anyway! like, if this is your beef you’re not allowed to turn on the TV until you finish Wuthering Heights. meanwhile the rest of us are going to do things that are easy and fun, because humans like doing things that are easy and fun.

fanfic is masturbatory-- masturbation is actually healthy and good for you if you care to partake in it. it reduces stress, improves your mood, and acquaints you with your body’s likes and dislikes. isn’t it suspicious that this is something women are also not supposed to be doing?

IN CONCLUSION i don’t care if fanfiction is good for you and neither should you. i don’t care about the latest thinkpiece that argues that fanfiction is intelligent, sophisticated, analytical, healing, creative, revolutionary.

i care that hundreds of thousands of women like it.

because that’s enough.

i think every game that makes flying the focus (and theres veeery few of those) should have a map with a lot of verticality to it. Yes we all wanna fly a dragon over a vast landscape but when youre high up everything is indistinguishable, the sky is empty, and that gets boring real quick. A flying game should have verticality in a way that lets you explore heights that are really high and places on the map that are overlaid with each other would feel more alive and give you so much more space to work with. In a way, itd be like the inverse of the subnautica map. The original map was amazing because it made the ocean feel so huge. "What do you mean theres five biomes underneath the earth?? what do you mean theres just vast caves under here?" and everything felt super interconnected too. There should be more things in the sky than just you too. Enemies, prey, companions.... etc.

my fave flying game is called 'aer memories of old' and it doesnt really have that verticality but its a good flying game imo because its got a map thats so rewarding to explore, there is a PURPOSE to flying around just beyond what the game wants you to do. The lore of the world is out there for you to find and piece together, and the map is filled with life and details. And recently theres been an uptick in developers trying to make flying dragon games but none feel like flying has any purpose at all other than be really showy and yeah it looks awesome but without a purpose for flying its gonna get boring for the player!!

"This is the dragon game you've always wanted" and its another purposeless multiplayer mmorpg with an insanely huge completely empty map and they focus so much on the five fucking billion dragon cosmetics (and god forbid theyre all free btw) instead of making a game that is fun to play and just put the responsibility of having fun on the shoulders of the player. "omg u can make any dragon in this game the models look so cool!!" ok but what about the game. can you tell me if you game is fun? is there anything to do? oh, just material gathering shit and crafting? and an mmo where you have to play with others for there to be any semblance of life in the world? ok

idk im just sick of seeing games advertised as a dragon survival game where the only survival aspect is like. 'find food' 'find water' 'find a mate to have an egg' repeat. repeat. repeat. surely theres other things?? what about migration? territorial disputes? becoming the apex predator? being a local tyrant or a benevolent protector? there is so much that could be done with dragons but all every dev wants to dip their ass in is multiplayer nonsesne with the most basic hunger and thirst and a basic as fuck combat mechanic and call it survival so that people can choose to kill each other. its so lazy

Slade: You kids are making it too complicated. Back in my day, we didn't even talk about that sort of thing. Dick, half asleep: Yeah, because 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' was soooo much better. Slade: All I'm saying is, a warm body is a warm body, and a nice ass is a nice ass. But kids these days have to go and call it something ridiculous. Dick: Well, based on what you said, 'kids these days' would probably call you pansexual. Slade: Pan--what? Dick: It means you're equally attracted to all genders. Slade, laying naked in bed with him after they just spent two hours having sex: What kind of faggot shit is that?

Always the same story with him, if he doesn’t win, it was rigged against him, as opposed to Republicans rigging everything for him! No neutral playing field in his mind.

If this purple monkey fuck came out as a phone app tomorrow no one would bat an eye. People would install it without a second thought and let their kids play with it.
