As someone who read the second half of the Drizzt series as it came out (yes I'm that old lol), I just know you have thoughts about him/the books so PLEASE share! So glad there are so many younger DND players getting into it and keeping our lovely boy alive <3
YOU'RE SO RIGHT ANON I DO HAVE THOUGHTS ABOUT HIM
i just!!!! love him!!! so much!!!! he's such a treasure
idk if this is me just overthinking things but the fact that he's THE dnd hero but he's also like. a petite little guy and his defining character trait is being KIND and he loves his friends and he's very physically affectionate (which feels kind of crazy to me that the early books came out so long ago and he was always like that??) and his best friend is his cat and he likes to have FUN and he treats swordfighting like dancing and he STILL sought the approval of his family even after years of abuse aND HE JUST LOVES EVERYONE SO MUCH
he's truly the fantasy protagonist of all time i love him i need to kiss him on the forehead
#ramble#legend of drizzt#i love that people just Know how i feel about him akdfhdfh#i am nothing if not consistent#spoilers ahead for these decades old books lmao#and also it's wild to me that he has VERY obvious ptsd/survivor's guilt but nobody outside of the drow make him feel less than for it???#ngl it was a slog getting through the opening of book 1 but then he started drawing on the floor with his feet and i was in love with him#i am SO excited to take him to mcm in may#i never do cis male characters but i'm also a short king so i feel weirdly comfortable akdhdfh#i'm cooking an essay in my brain about the drow bc i have so many thoughts#disclaimer: i do practice media literacy. i know these books aren't perfect and a lot of dnd lore is. bad#there's a lot of it where i'm like 'hm i don't feel good about the real world connotations this has'#tbh i think all you can do is say 'this was problematic then and it is now so let's acknowledge that it happened and not do it ourselves'

the aftg fandom after completely and thoroughly missing every single point the entire series has ever made
#please practice some media literacy it would do wonders for the average intelligence of this fandom#edgar allan ravens#riko moriyama#aftg#the sunshine court#tsc#all for the game#a popular aftg tiktok user said riko missed kevin too (a basic observation) and has been fighting for her life in the comments since

bruce: do you know anything that could help us organize a more effective resistance?
yoichi: ah... (has never learned to read a map)
kudou: he's been stuck in a vault for who knows how long, what strategic info can he know?
#bnha#shigaraki yoichi#second ofa user#third ofa user#shih's art#i'm just practicing poses tbh#anyways. what schooling do we think yoichi even managed after achieving literacy#do you think he ever drove a car#do you think kudou ever hopped in a car with him and told him to drive while kudou leaned out the window to provide cover fire#and yoichi was too nervous to say he couldn't drive#kudou afterwards: i don't know if these bruises are from the raid or from how many times i crashed into the car interior#yoichi: well the car interior is padded so jot that down#(yoichi did not learn what the brake pedal was until three hard turns at speed)

How are you adjusting to the whole Norse mythology situation?
LEO: I’ve mostly been bugging some of the older einherjar, and Hunding, a little bit, to figure this place out. Do you know how cool it is that some people have been here since the industrial revolution?? There's no way that I'm the first of my dad's kids to make it here. I just don't know who to talk to about it.
((Leo's coping mechanism re: Norse mythology is just hating himself more bc of course he doesn't belong in his own afterlife. but he won't admit that to anyone bc he doesn't know who can be vulnerable with.))
prev ask
#uy samirah appearance! I just finished her and magnus' designs and I'm so excited abt including them!#this post and the following uhh 2+? are setting us up to talk to Magnus; figure out wtf is going on with floor 19; and get answers for Leo#which is so exciting for me bc 1 I love my magnus base sm and 2 I LOVED GINNYLUNA'S HC THAT LEO HAS ELF BLOOD IN HIM??#thats SO COOL and I'm sat for Leo to find out that he does have a place here. that he does belong and that he's not a curse and he is#not a mistake either. but for now we will have him litrly scurrying away from anyone his age and drowning in imposter syndrome bc I said so#I pointyfied his ears a little extra just for that :>#leo valdez#magnus chase#mcga#valgrace#valhalla!valgrace#blood of olympus#hotel valhalla#post-blood of olympus#einherjar!leo valdez#heroes of olympus#samirah al abbas#art#v²au#leo valdez responds#answered asks#guys he's not even using his fire powers rn because 1. he's scared of himself and 2. he doesn't know if he can. T-T#bro is engaging in hand to hand combat and also only talks to einherjar from the 20th century#that said I'm pretty sure he's just scared bc he doesn't know what's going on btw. and I think the annabeth reveal will be fun#he's not about to get kicked out of the afterlife goodplace style#sidenote bc I'm actually so excited for tmw's post#finally being able to draw these characters the way I want to (and getting really any positive response about it) has been so special to me#like .. I haven't read these books in maybe 6 years and I haven't attempted fanart since way before I started arch school and got to#actually develop any tech/digital art program literacy via practice. I'm having sm fun srry for all the rambles on this post LMAO

One thing I will always love about The Winchesters is how petulant it is about its romance parallels. It really is knocking you over the head with parallels to Dean’s feelings in particular.
The show is built around the choosing—the running your own race despite your circumstances.
#it’s like robbie thompson is in the background with a chalkboard writing reading comprehension#in all caps#100% a study in media literacy as a companion to spn’s original run#dean is transparent#you have to go out of your way to look away from his feelings honestly#twc rewatch#spnwin rewatch#you have to misrepresent dean and misread him to erase his feelings for cas#he practically wears them on his sleeve#he doesn’t make sense otherwise

The amount of energy required to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.

I love a good scamming/gold digger love story where the manipulative fraud has her target eventually stumbling & falling, all wrapped around her finger, as she's solely concentrated on her goal which turns to shit when she's the one to catch feelings next. Throw in some family dynamic superhero shit along with that too? I'm fucking in. I'm kinda obsessed with this pairing actually, and I haven't been sucked into a kdrama pair for a while so I'm curious to see how this develops. I think I wish Do Dahae had a much more ruthless/witty side like her fake Mom (ofc I like my FLs morally-grey but leaning just a lil more towards evil ehehe) so the romance and her relationship with that kid would be more of a slowburn. She's a bit too plain for my taste for now but I'll accept it because this is my favourite trope & the acting is not shit, so I'm willing to overlook that for more Dohae x Gwiju scenes and the story unfolding.
#the atypical family#bok gwiju#do dahae#just found out that she's hated?#yeah I keep seeing moral police type of posts and honestly... yall are boring asf#probs got shit taste in films outside of kdramas 💀 cuz the lack of media literacy is embarrassing lmao#pure misogyny too#anyways if anyone's evil... it's Ina's dad tbh#an alcoholic neglectful father who didn't even try with his daughter after her mom's death#that baby girl is LONELY#I hate men#and i support women's wrongs; they're just never as bad as men's. did dahae hurt anyone yet? No.#Do Dahae is practically an angel compared to how I wished her character was like

being in a fandom is occasionally seeing a post like “why is no one talking about how bloingo is motivated by anger??” and going well i thought we weren’t talking about that because it was obvious.
#this is not a vague lol it’s just happens every so often for literally every fandom I’ve ever been in#and every time im like ok thank u for reminding me that media literacy is a skill that must be learned and practiced#op

the most insane thing i've heard a jkr supporter say was "well she's a billionare so if i financially support her it won't change much". second only to "well i'm going to buy harry potter stuff but im gonna do it while thinking trans rights stuff and in a spiteful cool way" you're stupid. is what you're saying
#eden mrraps.#sorry if you still support harry potter in our good year 2025 i think you need to find a new hobby + get better media literacy#books are horribly ableist racist misogynistic ect and the movie's aesthetic is easily replicated by similar movies that came out at that#time. if you like harry potter movies so much PLEASE watch practical magic.#warning for depictions of a woman in an abusive relationship but please. its so much better.#the romance in that movie hit me so hard. gentle masculinity ily

nothing pisses me off more than when something is clearly queer coded and the subtext is as subtle as a brick and bigots will STILL try to gaslight you into thinking it’s unintentional and that you’re reading too much into it. yes I’m talking about spider gwen
#like do people intentionally lose their media literacy skills whenever it comes to interpreting queer subtext that’s practically text#oh wait I forgot media literacy is dead#also people are the worst!#gay people could literally say they’re in love with each other on screen and bigots will tell you it’s platonic#it’s sososo frustrating#especially since some cishet people don’t seem to comprehend that they don’t *have* to relate to or understand queerness in media#to acknowledge that it’s there#but like my god gwen is literally surrounded by trans colours and pins and banners you’d have to be stupid not to pick up on that right ??#eye twitching lips curling nostrils flaring#gwen stacy#across the spider verse#ghost speaks

Genuinely hoping that Arlecchino cannot be redeemed overall. Her backstory could be sad, depressing, even justifiable in some ways, but it better not be used as an excuse for the shit she's done.
#need y'all to practice some critical thinking and media literacy skills if you're to enjoy her character properly#genshin impact#arlecchino#narky thinks

It's very hard to get over Persephone being shown with a perfectly cute dress she brought from home at the very start of the series, and then being peer pressured by Artemis into wearing the most boring, basic bitch short white dress I've ever seen and this being treated like an improvement. By far the worst fashion crime in this comic. I don't think I will get over it actually
#artemis you tasteless buffoon. why did you do that???#lo critical#i know there are worse issues in this comic. this is the funniest issue to bitch about#currently I'm rereading it in Spanish as literacy reinforcement because it is the literary equivalent of unseasoned popcorn for me#not great. not that terrible. meh#I think i'll start reading those reincarnated villainess webcomics for reading practice next. those also seem like unseasoned popcorn media

Is Us Weekly considered a reliable/credible source?
I'm answering this before i go to bed
my answer: Nope
i don't trust any article who doesn't give concrete evidences and references other articles
a little note on a post i saw in the Hugh jackman tag: Silence is Compliance/Silence means a person is guilty does not apply to online presence. Cancel culture needs to fucking get a hold of itself sometimes
#hugh jackman#media literacy#ya'll gotta stop talking about this#it's really stupid#and none of our business#train your critical thinking skills#practice media literacy

Something I’ve been watching people comes to terms with is that a lot of people don’t care about propaganda or truth or information because they don’t want to be inconvenienced or challenged—so they simply don’t make room for it and are shocked when it imposes on them anyway
#off topic#not fiber arts#that’s including me#I thought people would want to know when they’re being misled#the answer is generally ‘no’#unless they already like and trust you#and then they’ll make an exception#part of the reason disinformation campaigns work is because once people have incentive to believe something#(like for instance not admitting they were fooled)#they are much less likely to believe any new evidence and are basically impossible to reach via reason#I actually spent years learning how to apologize and admit when I was wrong#sure I still suck at it but now I have practice confronting my mistakes#anyway no one else did#so my attempts at growth feel pointless (they are not pointless it’s just upsetting knowing I was held to this fantastically high standard#that no one else was)#once the propaganda is used to espouse truth the pendulum will swing back#and people will ask for ��proof’ of the inanest most obvious things#this sounds less bad but it’ll lead to serious breakdowns in communication since they won’t be able to ‘prove’ things for themselves#which is why education is so important and critical thinking skills and various kinds of literacy#shouldn’t be paywalled behind ivory towers
