The one thing about Arcane season 2 that I'm still a little bit mad about is that Vi and Jinx never really talked. They had a total of 2 conversations in season 1, one where they got interrupted and Jinx was never able to tell Vi what happened in the 7 years Vi was in prison, and the second where Vi still had no clue what was going on. But that's fine, miscommunication that befalls tragedy, it's intentional, and character-wise Jinx wasn't in that kind of headspace for that to happen. But then season 2 rolls around and at no point in season 2 did they sit down and talk about what went wrong, why they made the decisions they did, and try to understand each other. We never even got a loud fight where they unloaded all the negative feelings they had towards each other, or a quiet painful confession that they felt like failures towards each other. They had so much down time that we should've seen all that, the fight in the mines and the talk in the commune should've been that, but they only barely skimmed the surface. Did Vi even find out about Jinx being injected with shimmer? Did Jinx ever find out why Vi left her that night? No, they didn't, and that's just such a shame.

I must admit I do still not recognize long-haired Essek automatically on the dash. I love him, I'm glad he's thriving with his pretty hair inspired by his boyfriend, I think he looks great, but I am so often like "whomst the fuck is this elf" before I realize he is, in fact, my elf.

fucked up that dropping gillion off for his training was done as unceremoniously as it was btw. it wasn't some grand goodbye, they didn't do anything special that day for their little boy -- it was just gillion and his father. his sister, his mother, his grandfather, they weren't there. it was just gillion, his father, and a quiet, possibly several day long trip to the capital. it was just gillion and his father at the steps of the palace, just his father that saw the big smile on his face, heard the little boy's promises of telling them everything when he got home. no one had even bothered explaining what was going on to him. he had to figure it out on his own, when papa never came back.

Gyjo in the fandom
cw: light discussion of ableism
Gyjo… what am I thinking about gyjo…
I like them. I like them a lot, actually. They have paralleled narrative arcs, they complement each other nicely, the romantic subtext is incredibly obvious to the point that even the most homophobic fan you know will admit they understand why people ship it… so why do I also have a problem with it?
There’s a lot of good fanart. Hell, I’ve reblogged plenty. Maybe it’s just something that’s more pronounced in fic.
I’m trying to word this correctly. My issue with gyjo has nothing to do with the text itself. I think my problem is just how people portray it in the fandom.
Maybe it’s because it’s so popular, or maybe it’s the sheer prominence of applying ‘Character A’ and ‘Character B’ dynamics without considerable regard for the characters involved, but I feel gyjo is very prone to flanderization. I believe the intersection with how ableist people are toward Johnny (intentionally or not, subtly or not) and the old tropes these two get shoved into makes it so I have trouble enjoying fics in the fandom.
I’m not saying it’s bad to enjoy certain tropes. I’m not saying headcanons are bad either. What I am saying is that writing is hard, but if you’re going to write fanfiction please have consideration for the characters you’re writing. The arcs of these two are complex and multilayered, which is why I think they have such staying power, but I also think they also provide a good opportunity for us as writers and artists to examine our biases when it comes to the portrayal of certain groups, personality types, mental illnesses, queerness, disability, etc. and maybe come out better people for it.

i’ve been thinking about her for a while so this is the kid mario and peach would have IF peach ruled openly as a toad 🙏🏽
her name is apricot! when she gets older she also goes by the nickname albie :]
due to the circumstances regarding her existence she has quite the magical reserves and has the potential to eclipse her mom as a mage
but for now, she’s just a kid

imo the neutral state of humanity should be a person with body hair. it skeeves me out so bad that up to 50% of americans (not accounting for other countries) remove their body hair on purpose, some of them going so far as to surgically or permanently remove it.
especially growing up as a girl seeing shaving presented as a norm just the same as your first period or your first bra. seeing shaving presented the same as having a healthy diet and being active. seeing body hair as the same as infections and illnesses.
every time i see a woman in a tank top and she raises her arms and it's bare it always takes me aback. i wish we hadn't been raised like this i think people would feel a lot more free in their bodies if we hadn't been forced into gender and sex norms from birth

"I'll be going through my recent pledgers list once I'm home".
Just saving this for future reference... always remember to be careful who you pledge to people, in case you get caught in the crossfire of an awful creator on the warpath. They do love their doxxing... and canceling the recent pledges of innocent people with no possibility of a refund. Classy.

One of these days I am really going to snap. I am going to see yet another instance of nonbinary identities being erased or ignored or changed and I am going to snap

I’m just realizing how frustrated I am by how super open-ended Stiles and Scott’s mental health still feels by the end of the series. Stiles never really learns to manage his anxiety. In fact, I feel like the writers continuously justify his anxious paranoia, no matter how unhealthy it is to live that way. And a lot of people have talked about how Scott’s self-sacrificial issues and tendencies to avoid his own problems are frequently encouraged by the narrative if not ignored entirely. Idk I get it was a show about werewolves they weren’t exactly looking to solve mental health. And I understand how stigmatized mental health was in 2011-2015 and still is today. But like. They brought it up? It feels so unfinished It’s just weird that this show ends and so many of the main characters feel like they are still struggling. The only character who gets any resolution to their internal battle is Derek (and maybe like 2% Isaac if you count the tiny side quest of battling through his claustrophobia in season 3A but completely ignore his continued inability to process his mountain of grief)

"Why did they make Michael into Michaela? They took away one of the hottest men in Bridgeton now!" Okay, now it's one of the hottest women in the show. What's the issue now? Still got Francesca and Michael, in a way.
"Francesca's infertility plotline is ruined now! It was so important in the books!" Why can't she still have this particular plot, while still being with Michaela? Why is that suddenly erased now that Michael is a woman? Do you not believe that sapphic woman can't also struggle with infertility? There are multiple ways that the show can still incorporate this.
"Why are they making everyone gay now? It was fine when it was just Benedict but now-" I'm going to stop you right there. What's wrong with having more than one queer character? There are multiple straight people in the show, and in most forms of media, but you draw the line at having more than one gay/queer person? Imagine what it's like for other queer people to not be represented or to only have that one person be a vessel for the entire community. Doesn't sound very fair right? Another thing, because I see a lot of people who say this call themselves "allies", it doesn't sound very supportive when you say things like this. It doesn't instill confidence in your support for the queer community when you can't even fathom the possibility of more than one queer person on your screen without complaint. It's okay to be a little bummed out about the change, but to use rhetoric like above feels very...it leaves a sour taste in the mouth personally.

umm shit fuck shit i miss genshin impact so badly but i could never actually redownload it and start playing again because that would erase the idealized version of it that sleeps in my head where there were only three regions including dragonspine, the character designs were actually goated, and the lore wasn't exhausting to get through

actually i prefer mexican dubs to american english dubs because they're more faithful to the Japanese script (usually)
My friend you have missed the point doesn't matter if you are watching sub or dub or reading the manga unless its in the og Japanese your getting a translation English Spanish Portuguese Irish they're all very different from Japanese they all change things to make it make sense its also good to point out that it's not one translator for one language there are multiple people whose job it is to translate and they also deserve to be rated on their own merits anyway if you enjoy the Mexican dub over the American English good for you you don't have to try and justify it just enjoy the show how you enjoy it
