I got a comment that was like ... people are only mad about film Faramir because he doesn't act exactly the way they personally imagined him, and tbh I'm torn between being annoyed at how deeply disingenuous that argument is and slightly impressed at the sheer audacity of pinning the Faramir Controversy on difference from random people's headcanons rather than the book itself.
...then I got to thinking about how the whole time-consuming and wildly out of character handling of the temptation of the Ring is one thing, and justifiably gets a lot of attention, but Faramir allowing his soldiers to beat Gollum for information is quite comparable in my mind. They're his men! Gollum is an unarmed prisoner! I guess it's meant to show the exigencies of war or something and I'm just like ... hahaha no.
In a way it reminds me of film Aragorn just straight up killing the Mouth of Sauron in a way that seems meant to show their desperation in a badass cathartic way, and meanwhile, I'm thinking ... oh, our heroes murder ambassadors now. I feel like it's the same underlying kind of rationale, and quite far from not matching people's headcanons.
#faramir ordering his men to handle gollum gently and aragorn not actually killing sauron's (human) envoy are not people's headcanons#they're things that objectively happened (or didn't happen) in the source material being adapted#like the argument about how significant the divergences are is one you can have (obviously i find them very significant)#the argument about whether the comparisons should be made at all is one you can have (obviously i think comparisons are fine)#but 'people are just mad about not seeing their headcanons on screen'? nah. points for effort though.#anghraine rants#legendarium fanwank#legendarium blogging#pj critical#jewel of the seashore#húrinionath#vagueblogging intensifies

Look I love and respect the yuri nation and also think it Sucks when fandoms ignore perfectly good f/f relationships in media for mediocre yaoiz but like we cannot understate just how strong of a presence farcille has in the dungeon meshi community as of writing. Newcomers making the guys suck and fuck is such a non-issue can we chill
#dungeon meshi#ive seen a couple of posts over the past weeks (here and on twit) of people like. genuinely being mad about the spike in m/m#and its like... sorry what are u guys on about#farcille is cute dont get me wrong but like with all ships theres only so many dynamics they can believably have. IMO anyways#and theres other f/f potential too but those are like.. relegated to side characters with a minimal presence in the source material#so its not unsurprising that they dont get much attention (kikimari save me..)#loathe as i am to admit it there are more men in the primary cast/later characters that get a ton of screentime compared to women.#so we get more tuoys to smack around. like. its not unsurprising.#if the dungeon meshi tag on ao3 ends up having m/m overtaking gen AND f/f then we can talk about preservation of endangered species#but right now.. let them cook#theres some lesbian yaoi on the menu so show some respect

My friend has given me a very passionate recommendation of epic: the musical and it sounds so interesting but since that recommendation i've encountered the online fandom for it and they've all been the most insufferable people alive 😔 I try not to let fandom influence my enjoyment of a work but that's usually AFTER i've already consumed and enjoyed it, not before. You fuckers are gonna make me get a bad grade in friendship media resonance.
#rant#complaining and whining about fandom#mostly i just see them complain about women all day#saw one describe margaret atwood as some horrible man-hating misandrist#lots and lots of madeline miller hate too which... i know some people have their gripes with her#but if YOUR gripe is she's too mean to men...#well#listen you can woobify your blorbo from your myths. i wholeheartedly support this.#but if you get THIS mad at anyone who dares to have a different interpretation... even ones that are directly sourced *from the epic cycle*#(yes i also understand why some have beef with the telegony. it's weird. this does not make anyone who uses it as a source inherently evil)#then i think you need to stop#also the shit some of them will say about the hanged maids... that's not even a seperate work you can denounce that's IN the odyssey itself#listen man if you think any encounter with circe or calypso was assault because of the power gap#you have to admit the same is true of *slaves* stuck in a house with a bunch of entitled powerful men for decades#i *know* this thing doesn't have rape apolagia in it. my friend wouldn't rec that to me. so how did you people get so rancid?#i have to believe i just happened to encounter a bad corner of the fandom and the rest are normal

sorry this sentence on the dbz abridged tvtropes page is making me feel absolutely feral i could bite through concrete. hello???? can anyone hear me????
#oh vegeta’s fatal and intoxicating mix of pride and self loathing#we’re really in it now#dbz#once again two men who live in texas and one in canada understand vegeta more than akira toriyama#i know they get mad when people say dbza is better than the source material…#but like….this is better writing than toriyama has given us since like 1992

watch me tumbling into the fandom that brought into writing in the first place like im rolling down a fucking hill at mach 20.
#caiffee spills#its been nearly a decade since i wrote for it/since it came out#and nearly as long since ive been in it#some posts from a friend of mine (hi not mad at you dont worry) were from it and made me think of it#and now im wanting to rewrite the source material#(it was a very messy source material)#so like if you see minecraft block men on your dash called laurance and garroth from me and dont want it sorry#maybe ill make a tag for when i blurt out my thoughts about them thats different from my caiffee spills one#because juggling multiple blogs aint for me

Just saw a man saying that there wasn’t enough gay men/mlm relationships in media compared to lesbian relationships,,, I’m going to need us to be very real and honest with ourselves right now
#and it makes me so mad BUT I CANNOT ENGAGE IN IT I CANNOT#WHAT DO YOU MEAN#there’s not enough queer dynamics in general but holy shit is most of it white gay men#and then he specifically cited ducking grey’s anatomy as a source for this#this is why I’m deleting TikTok 😭 t

trying to gently explain to someone that you do not make an oc for a decades-old thing that has one of the most autistic and lore-entrenched fanbases without being willing to do either 1) a cursory wiki skim beforehand about the extensively well-established canon you're supposedly building your character off of, or 2) prepare for people to Not Like Or Understand What You're Going For, Here
tl;dr if you wanna do an alternate interpretation of a d&d god (and llolth??? being a sad misunderstood and distant power who didn't want any murdering done in her name????? and Personally treats a *male* cleric well???? is Definitely an alternate interpretation) then...make your own setting and write or DM for it?? instead of being mad that other people would share lore with you bc what you've come up with directly contradicts the canon that everyone else is going by???
#stirring up trouble#that aita made me spit blood. and while i am inclined to say theyre not an asshole bc i think its just a Rookie Mistake on that OP's part...#You Are The One Kicking Down The Sandcastles In The Sandbox Actually. ive done the same thing as a newbie to fandoms yknow#speculative headcanons for shit i simply didnt know existed. but when i got corrected i simply adapted and reworked my headcanons#instead of getting mad that someone else was willing to share knowledge and cite sources. *shrugs* long as they arent mean abt it.#anyway for those of you who are not aware: llolth is so fucked up even other evil gods avoid her. she's beefing with tons of them#llolth-worshipping drow society is also INTENSELY matriarchal. men are breeders or cannon fodder. llolth also LOVES infighting#and maintains her stranglehold on underdark drow by choking out rival faiths and 'culling the weak' via Lots Of Assassinations And Murders#so that only her bestest and most specialest followers get to live. basically turning them all into zealots. this is literally the canon.#and ***that*** is the goddess this person chose to 'save' their cleric dude???? comparing her to catholic god in that post even. like. what.#but hey. homebrew or with a dm that's cool with it?? fine. just. not in a freeform rp discord running off of forgotten realms canon. wtf

dude i'm sobbing. this essay is like "we're being very scientific here! no emotions here!" but girl. u can't just say that + then present a bunch of unverified shit in academic language lol.
#stop telling me you're very scientific + do some research u know? i didn't show up 2 speculate lol.#but i guess if you're the only one who writes an essay on the topic u can randomly throw in Mad Men as a way 2 think about#something that actually happened in academia. who tf cares i guess#dragged my fav novel into this dumpster fire as a source. great job everyone! 👍 fuck you!#literally!!!! that book was NOT ABOUT THIS TOPIC!!!!!! you can't just ignore that it's about imperialism 2 make some weirdo point#about how u speculate this industry works!!! that was NOT the point of this part of the book!!!!!!! oh my god i can't do this anymore
