It's Time to Put Hitler to Bed
Over the last 20 years it's become increasingly common when talking about western politics to try and tie the political opposition to Hitler. It goes beyond Godwin's Law at this point, because it's no longer just in internet phenomenon. It happens in real life. In real conversations and real debates. All sides do it. No issue is safe. And it's beyond ridiculous at this point. It needs to stop.
So let's just stop talking about Hitler altogether when it comes to western politics.
He's dead. He's gone. His ideology died with him. Yes, you read that right. National Socialism is dead. It was a very specific ideology with goals and aims beyond being racist and hating Jews. Nowhere on Earth is there a serious National Socialist party with any political power or any chance at gaining any. Modern day neo-nazis are nothing more than edgelord racists desperately trying to grab some of the "shine" Hitler has with other idiots for themselves. They're awful. They're racist. They should grow the fuck up. But they aren't nazis. They aren't storming government buildings and they aren't winning political office. Most of them aren't even committing crimes. They're just sitting online or in a basement somewhere snort-laughing like Bevis and Butthead while they whisper "k*ke" and "n*gger" to each other and post pictures of ovens with captions like "where the Jews go". How basic and boring. They are beyond lame, and it's long past time we stop bigging these people up like they're some huge existential threat to humanity itself. They're not. They're just pathetic losers who have no power over anyone, not even themselves.
Does this mean we should forget the Holocaust? No. Of course not. We should always remember what Hitler did. But if we don't take the right lessons from that dark era in human history, then we might as well forget it because misremembering, on purpose or by accident, is just as bad as forgetting.
Hitler was an evil man who did evil things. He is a cautionary tale to never let rhetoric overwhelm your better nature. He is a warning of what happens when you give into hate out of fear or anger. But that's it. He does not influence anyone with power. Not in the west. No one in the west is actually trying to be like Hitler. And as evil as Hitler was, not everything he did was automatically evil just because he did it. And that right there is the main problem with the modern trend of accusing everyone you don't like of being Hitler. Hitler did a lot of things. He woke up. He ate breakfast. He fell in love. He breathed air. He got dressed. He gave speeches. He liked art. He was a human being. I don't say this to downplay the evil things he did or to try and create sympathy for him. But surely you can easily see how literally every single person on Earth has something in common with Hitler just by virtue of also being a human being, yes?
Hitler was also a politician. Which means that, yeah, every politician is going to have a position that's at least similar to something Hitler proposed or enacted in his political career. His views and platforms ranged far and contain things that are both left and right wing. Things which, in the hands of someone other than Hitler, most likely would not have led to the Holocaust. Because the Holocaust is an evil that was unique to Hitler. He baked genocide into his ideology, then codified and streamlined it after gaining power. His was a cold and inhumane calculation that only the Aryan race as he defined it was worthy of life. That every other race, everyone who didn't fit his idea of purity, must be killed to preserve his Master Race. There have been other genocides before and since, but none quite as industrialized and far reaching. And, in the west at least, there is no one with any power who wants to reenact anything that even comes close to the Holocaust. Not even that politician you really hate. Not even that activist group that promotes that awful ideology.
All accusations of being Hitler, or like Hitler, do is muddy the already opaque waters of modern western political discourse. And people are so bored with Hitler comparisons. He doesn't evoke the same emotional reaction he did even 20 years ago because, by this point, everyone even remotely active in western politics or political commentary knows someone who has been accused of being Hitler or a nazi, if they aren't that person themselves. It's become little more than the (supposedly) adult version of "I know you are but what am I?" It's meaningless, it's dumb, and everyone needs to stop doing it.
Stop making posts about how so and so is just like Hitler. Stop re-tweeting/blogging/posting them. Stop bringing Hitler's name into discourse at all. Stop arguing about whether or not National Socialism is right or left wing. Stop pretending that superficial similarities to Hitler or one of Hitler's policies is absolute proof that an ideological opponent is evil.

>For example, you say that they are bad and mean, but then you say that the survivors are lying. So what is it? What makes them mean and mean if every accusation is obviously false?
What makes you think that all the accusations are obviously false and beyond credibility? Not all of them, but some of them. Some are not false. At least it's strange that most of them are simply deleted after some time. This suggests doubts about everything that is happening. Who needs to delete something that could go against the accused?
>You have no right to anything. You should not be given any additional details. This is not a late-night TV show that you watch for entertainment. These are real people who have been harmed, and you are hurting them even more.
Oh, isn't it? You're right. We are nobody, and no one is responsible to us. Just like you are not responsible to those who disagree with what is happening. This is a valid position. But doesn't it look like this is a simple throw in the face of the fans as a consequence of the fact of spitting in the face of their fans? We'll report a problem person, but we won't show anything because we don't have to, and fuck you, you know. Ambiguous words with a bad context.
>Do you keep saying that the creators have been treated abominably by fans over the years?
Isn't that right? Haven't fans literally ruined and ruined the lives of many of your close friends, the creators of the series, with false accusations and incitement, stalking, etc.? It's been advertised more than once, and you know perfectly well who you're talking about, but I don't want to point fingers.
>So here's an important tip to take home with you: neither Jeff nor Adam gives a damn about you.
God, fuck, and thank they don't care. No one would not like to enter into discussions with those who have ignited the fire of everything that is happening in the fandom.
>How dare you fucking say that heather's situation is questionable. How the fuck dare you.
Because not every opinion should be censured by you? Because her story, which is already several years old, but it was advertised not as long ago as it could have been, which would have led to many times fewer victims of Adam, which are available? I don't think Heather was the last last link. And you're ready for this conversation.
>This whole popular article just calls everyone a liar. You have mountains of evidence, and you're still sitting here picking at things that contradict your own opinion.
You have a lot of evidence, and it's your right not to share it with your fans in order to avoid problems. That's right. But the question is: why didn't you go above your own head and neglect the idea of isolating Adam not only from the fandom and the Internet, but also from society as a whole? He's a maniac. Criminal. A terrible man, according to you. People like Adam should be criminally punished and held accountable before the law. Why is he still at large with a lot of evidence? Maybe it's just... not enough? And maybe we really don't know what we really need to know?
>Prove that she knows Adam,â and then literally flip in the next paragraph to devalue another survivor because âphotos can't be considered proof of a sexual relationship.â It wasn't about sexual relations, but that Heather was intimately acquainted with Adam. Two selfies â anyone can have at that time, will this be the reason to accuse my friend of rape? I don't think that will be enough. But this is a more sensitive issue, not for public discussion.
It wasn't about sexual relations, but that Heather was intimately acquainted with Adam. Two selfies â anyone can have at that time, will this be the reason to accuse my friend of rape? I don't think that will be enough. But this is a more sensitive issue, not for public discussion.
>There was abuse. It's simplified to âWell, what was she wearing?â which is literally just victim blaming rhetoric that shifts the blame onto the victim.
To turn the whole post inside out and present a desire to find out what the fuck is going on â that's a solid appeal. That's not the fucking order of things. Yes, these are even fucking different situations, exaggerated from extreme to extreme.
Without proof, you can accuse any person of all the offenses that he has never committed in his life. If a person had really been abused, if there was any indirect evidence of his wrongdoing, then proceedings would have begun and he would have been punished. If at least the young fans who were sexually abused by Adam can't do anything about it, where are their guardians? Why didn't they take care of their children's safety, letting everything take its course after so much time? If there really was evidence of sexual abuse, he would not have worked at the clinic, since when applying for a job they have to check all the people they hire. They make requests for medical examinations every year and also carry out other checks.
Naturally, without proof, this is just a pure lie, since in words you can accuse a person of anything, including what he did not do. You can say anything, but until there is no statement to the police, evidence, investigation or verification, this cannot be considered an objective accusation. And besides, if you were afraid of retribution from Adam or Jeff, it would be much more logical to go to the police with the existing punishments than to write about it on the Internet.
I do not exclude the fact that Adam Rosner's parents (according to Heather) they may be rich people, but why didn't any of the victims even try to go with the same zeal to the bitter end in order to truly punish Adam? Even if Adam's parents could pay to get him off, he doesn't have endless money, and if there are so many victims, then their collective cooperation with going to the police would give results. Yes, money will not pay off the whole world. It would have been much safer, because in that case Jeff and Adam would have been subject to certain restrictions, even if not criminal liability. As long as you protect your victims with support, no matter what, they will ALWAYS be in danger as long as these two assholes are free. You canceled them in the fandom, but reality did not touch them, judging by the fact that Jeff participated in one of the interviews, and Adam simply renounced the Internet, continuing his medical activities, and possibly "breeding" more victims that you may not even know about, because he is already on another border. the reality. So why do your actions seem to be ineffective? Why are potential criminals still at large, and all the evidence that you hold is still with you? So you condemn their actions, and are you prepared for the fact that there may be many more victims? If attempts to contact the authorities were ignored, isn't that a reason to inform and ask people for help to support you and spread all the evidence so that people can be heard on the current basis? If this is true, then it turns out that one is an abuser and a manipulator, the other is a pedophile and a rapist, but at the same time, for the sake of the safety of other potential victims, you do not do anything, you do not want to show evidence so that no one else has doubts. Isn't that inhumane? If all the accusations are true, then you are. as a victim who wants to protect and protect others, on the contrary, you will do everything to ensure that this person is seriously punished, and not a simple cancellation on the Internet. And yes, before you say it, I have the right to say it, because I'm not on anyone's side. Neither on the side of the victims, nor on the side of these moral freaks who simply ran away from responsibility. Because canceling on the internet and the fandom IS THE LEAST you can reward a potentially terrible person with. Yes, according to you, we don't have the right to do that, but before posting a statement on the Internet, I think we need to be prepared for the fact that someone may disagree with this. And not because of the fact of sick fanaticism, no. And because of the fact that it's like throwing dust in the eyes, and if it really wasn't our damn business, this discussion simply wouldn't have taken place.
I want to make an appeal to the entire Slenderverse fandom. The fandom is sick and you are ready for this conversation. The fandom is sick not only because of the actors, but also because of the fans. Important note: I do NOT condone any violent actions on anyone's part, I just want to know the TRUTH and do not support either the madness of the fans or the inadequacy on the part of some actors. Also in this post, I will cover not only the situations with the actors of EMH and the Marble Hornets, but also the specific situations with Jeff Koval and Adam Rosner. We all remember how Brian was sexualized and threatened, how Tim was bullied, and how Evan was harassed and threatened. And this is just the tip of the iceberg, because in fact, many actors have been subjected to varying degrees of disgusting treatment from fans. Threats against the actors, death wishes not only for the actors, but also for their loved ones, insane harassment. And even if the fan frenzy has subsided at the moment, it's still there.
If we talk about the actors themselves, then when it comes to Jeff Koval, one logical question arises in my head: "why did they hush up what happened?"Jeff was an abuser and a manipulator and, of course, he is a vile person. The way Jeff treated his girlfriend and Evan is truly disgusting. And indeed, it seems to me very hypocritical and twofold how Adam was canceled, but Jeff was considered "not the same thing," and here's why: I conducted my own little investigation into Adam's situation and also looked at all the evidence here and I haven't found any convincing evidence that that he's a rapist, even though he's a really NASTY person. And before you start writing about how I justify him, let me explain my position: for me, Adam Rosner is an unpleasant, vile person with whom I would never want to have any personal contact, he certainly did and said a lot of disgusting things, but there is no evidence specifically that he's a rapist, and I'll explain why.
Now let's talk about my own little investigation into all the accusations that have been leveled against Adam Rosner. Personally, I consider him to be a vile person, but my goal is to find out the truth, not pin all mortal sins on him. So, let's see what I found out.:
Let's start with zoophilia. From what I saw, the "screenshots" come from only one person, there is no one else who could confirm them and say: "Yes, it really happened, I saw these messages from Adam not in screenshots.", or: "Yes, Adam personally told me about it." (with the real evidence base behind these statements). Usually, in such shocking situations, screenshots are taken not by one person, but by several. Also, the "screenshots" themselves don't look reliable, they look very strange. Regarding this, I share the same opinion as Ford Muybridge. If there is a real evidence base behind these screenshots and Adam Rosner mentioned somewhere else about his predilections for animals, then notify me about it, I will study the information and if it is reliable, I will edit and include it in the post.
The situation with Heather also looks extremely dubious. At least because based on how specifically the situations are described, the identity of this person will be quite understandable to those present at that party, as well as to Adam himself. And considering that literally the entire Internet is now on the side of Adam's victims, if this girl were a real victim, she would have no reason to maintain her own anonymity in wider circles either. There's nothing to be afraid of when you have so many people behind you, when you WILL DEFINITELY be supported, considering that other actors have turned their backs on Adam. I don't want to say that I don't believe the victims, I want to say that I consider it unwise to accuse without presenting evidence, at least because anyone who has at least some material or psychological benefit from this can say: "This man abused me." Please, kindly, if you are accusing someone of something, then show proof. Heather didn't attach anything to the post, even something trivial that would make it clear that she really knew Adam. And it's not necessary to reveal your identity to the readers of this post, it would be enough just to show some photos with Adam that are not publicly available. I can't believe that over the years of friendship, there can't be some personal photos or at least something that could confirm her personal acquaintance with Rosner. According to one of the commentators, under the full list of charges the actors from EMH have officially refuted Heather's words, but I personally have not yet verified this information and cannot say that this is true, however, I felt it necessary to indicate this here, as the commentators, who will also be like me, are not lazy to understand this, they may try to find more accurate information on this subject, and I will include it in the post if it is reliable.
About the situation with some screenshots and Adam's statements. His vile fetish for "little sisters" turned out to be really true, he confirmed this in his apology post, posted either in 2016 or in 2017 (I saw both dates and I do not know which one is correct). As well as some disgusting statements about some people. Well, to add to that, what's disgusting is disgusting, and I won't deny it. The only thing I would like to point out is that his apologies really look vague, without any evidence or specifics.
Regarding the situation with Ress. A shared selfie cannot be considered proof of a sexual relationship. But as for the screenshots, there are really big questions for Adam, however, there is still no direct mention of sexual contact, so I would like to see and know more, it's hard for me to draw unambiguous conclusions from hints and fragments, but I do not deny the possibility that Ress may be telling the truth, her words still sound more believable than Heather's words.
About Eve. Her story is more believable than other stories, given that the number of screenshots and photos is much greater than other people's. If the screenshots are not fake, then it turns out that Rosner was really in love with an underage teenager as an adult, which is certainly disgusting. But one thing is bothering me - why was Eva unhappy about being ignored with Adam Rosner's disregard? After all, if you think about it that way, then realizing his feelings, he tried to distance himself from her quite reasonably.
The situation regarding his phone call is ambiguous. In my opinion, two people are responsible for sexual intercourse. If a girl took birth control pills and knew exactly when to take them, as well as how much they work, then I have questions for her, because the pills she takes are her area of responsibility. Adam's area of responsibility is to inquire about the duration of the pills and read the instructions for them. In my opinion, they both behaved irresponsibly. In addition, she claimed that everything was fine when he was interested in both her condition and her financial situation (the situation in which she gave him the money). Agree, when a person constantly assures that everything is fine, but in fact it is not, then this is already his area of responsibility, since people around him cannot read minds. I am shocked that I have to explain such elementary things, given that the girl, as I understood from the phone call, had also inadvertently become pregnant before (starting at 08:20 in the recording of the phone call, the girl says that she had already become pregnant unplanned before not from Adam, correct me, if I was mistaken, English is not my native language). Given her previous unplanned pregnancy, wasn't it her area of responsibility not to have sex, realizing that her morning pill wasn't effective for the entire day? As for Adam's excuses, I don't like the way he tries to shift his part of the responsibility to the fact that he was young, as well as his phrase that he always regrets being in debt more than anything else in life, is really strange. My opinion is that they both behave like irresponsible and very impulsive people. I don't like Adam himself or the girl. My personal conclusion about the situation with Adam Rosner in general: of course, he is a disgusting and vile person and there is a high probability that he could REALLY be in love with an underage teenager, as well as have consensual sexual contact with a minor. However, it is just as likely that he is NOT a rapist or a zoophile. I think it is extremely wrong to pin all the sins of humanity on a person, let him be responsible for what he really did. And yes, this does NOT negate the fact that I find it disgusting that he fell in love with an underage girl, being an adult, it makes me sick, BUT he is not a monster, not a rapist, not a murderer.
Returning to Jeff Koval, I want to talk about the fact that the main claim against his manipulativeness and abuse is very similar to the claim against Adam, given that there is no real evidence that Adam Rosner committed violence (which does not negate his other vile actions, but we are now talking specifically about violence). And Jeff didn't do any better than Adam, not at all.
I am not calling for any cancellation or harassment of any of the actors or fans. I consider the "cancellation culture" to be a very ambiguous and in many ways destructive phenomenon, it's like how people stone a person, making him a scapegoat. The "cancellation culture" is disastrous due to the fact that it is lynching, and lynching is not always correct, it can spread a lot of false information. I don't want to say that the victims are "guilty" of anything, but seriously, do I have to explain why lynching is a bad thing? If we talk about people who turn out to be victims, then proving your words is important. Of course, one should not immediately blame someone who claims to be a victim, but I believe that the presumption of innocence SHOULD also be taken into account. Without proof, the world just turns into chaos. Indirect evidence may also not always be something that would really prove a person's guilt. The world is not black and white, please do not forget this and check the information PERSONALLY, use your critical thinking.
I would also like to discuss separately the topic of T12 cancellation in general. It seems very unwise to deny the importance of this project to the entire Slenderverse fandom. Of the main complaints about the plot from people who devalue T12's contribution to the fandom, only a couple of complaints turned out to be significant. Most people talk about things that are described and explained in Milo's journal. Correct me in the comments if this is not the case, but Milo's journal was written personally by Adam Rosner, therefore, this is canonical information. And I'm pretty sure that if this whole situation with Adam hadn't happened, the information from Milo's journal would have been included directly in the videos themselves. Read the journal and you will find that many plot holes are closed just by describing the events from there. Adam Rosner is a good screenwriter and creator, but a bad person. I also don't want to devalue his contribution to the Slenderverse fandom, although as a person and person he disgusts me.
I think I'll draw a general conclusion from all this and summarize it. I think that people in the Slenderverse fandom should reconsider their attitude to everything that is happening. Many actors no longer want to have anything to do with Slenderverse and Creepypasta, because fans have an extremely inappropriate tendency to treat actors as radically as possible, and there is definitely a problem with sexualization, bullying from series in the fandom, etc. It is inappropriate to wish someone dead, to find out where a stranger lives and threaten him. And yes, understand that lynching is not a good thing, and I'm surprised that I need to explain exactly why this is a bad thing. Check the information, ask for evidence, and stop trying to find scapegoats. Adam Rosner and Jeff Koval are really nasty and unpleasant personalities, but before accusing someone of all mortal sins, it's worth figuring out what's true and what's not. I would like the Slenderverse fandom to become better and less radical, as well as for people to engage in critical thinking before throwing serious accusations at anyone.

If only the original Saint Seiya anime was a 2014-2018 anime series instead of being aired in the 80s-90s, I can only imagine the sheer amount of animation memes that could have been done. Some of the characters are just so perfect for those, like, if this was a more animation-oriented fandom this would totally be a thing.
#wren text tag#saint seiya#imagine all the character doing the infamous head bop#Saga would be the KING of the edgy memes. 100% the copycat meme or the trauma one idk#he has the right vibe to have a thousand of that kind#Deathmask can have the pork soda meme BUT! For HIM I clearly see the âhe broke my heartâ with Dite#oh and the entire Jack Stauber discography itâs abt ships. A good 60% at least#Shaka or Mu could be the bloom meme. Or anyone with really long hair that could be a pain in the ass to animate#bye lena problems uhm maybe Camus and Milo#the forget meme. ohMY. This was prob the animation meme that started all. The head bop origin. Aiolos goes here#like heâs dead but he still need to haunt the narrative (affectionate)#Ikki deserves the dream meme#the one where the character does a walk circle and it is interrupted every now and then by some edgy still frames#Shun uhm maybe those cute silly animated loops. Otter pop or marble soda meme idk#in short you get the idea#oh yes. For the people who read/watch LC. Good in me is so Alone core#btw I checked YT and there are a few StS animated memes. They exist. They are a thing.#there are also gacha life video??? Somehow??? Disappointed but not surprised#they should add a new internet rule that says. If it exist thereâs a gacha life video of it.

This post is not about malicious misgendering. It's about people who don't want to misgender you doing it anyway, because it's "too hard for them." It's about allies whose heart is in the right place â or at the very least on its way to the right place, and could use some poking to try harder.
It's inspired by my friend. She knows me from childhood. She loves me dearly. She keeps saying that no matter what happens, I can always run to her and she will help me. She offered me her place in case I got kicked out by my mother.
She also keeps reiterating that she "sees me as a boy." That she knows I am a man. That she wouldn't never want to misgender me on purpose.
It's been about 8 months since I came out to her as a trans man. (And way longer than that since I came out to her as trans in general â it was just that I used to identify as a nonbinary person who was using any pronouns, and I did allow her to stick with she/her for me.)
And yet. She keeps slipping. Not once-per-day slips, either. Several times per conversation. Granted, she is getting much better. She slips less than she used to. I believe she's trying.
And I know it's not just because of how long we have known each other for, but also because of me not passing enough. I came out to her before I started transitioning. When I made some first steps in my social transition and started presenting as masculine as I could, she told me herself that "it made it easier for her to call me a he." She didn't mean it viciously â she believes trans people are who they say they are even pre-transition and even if they don't pass. But it still betrays a degree of passive, deeply ingrained transphobia, her perhaps unrealized belief in universal visual gender markers created and reinforced by the cispatriarchy. She wants to say "he," but I keep giving her "she" vibes, so to say. Which is not my fault â I deserve to be gendered correctly. Everyone does, cis or trans. Transitioning or non-transitioning. Pre-HRT or on it. She needs to work on that.
And it's not like it's hard. In my social circle, only very few people are cis or post-transition. Most of the people I talk to daily are either pre-transition, in the early stages of transition, or non-transitioning. In the eyes of society around us, none of us passes. We also mostly speak Czech â a language that is heavily gendered. I have never caught myself using the incorrect grammatical forms for anybody.
Granted, I might be speaking out of privilege. I am trans myself (which is not a privilege by any means, but it is probably a favorable position with regards to your ability to be normal about people's pronouns), and I've always been language-oriented. But I don't think I'm a saint or exceptionally talented, so the catch must be somewhere else.
I reiterate, I literally think it's a skill. If it happens to you, practice, practice, practice â and not just speaking, practice thinking about the person you keep misgendering in the correct gendered terms, and then speaking will be easier. Go on the internet and visit trans spaces to learn more about diverse gender experiences and see photos to recalibrate your brain to familiarize yourself with how people of any given gender express themselves. You can do it. You can be the ally you want to be.
Okay. Maybe tonight is my turn to be a bully. Prepare yourselves. Here goes my bully take!
Struggling to gender people correctly because
a) you've known them for a long time pre-transition
b) they don't pass
is a skill issue in either case. Even if you love them and want to be an ally, even if you wouldn't misgender them on purpose â in that case it's not a failing of your morals, it's a failing of your literal skills and habit-forming patterns.
Hone those skills. Break whatever it is in your brain that ties them to their post-birth name/pronouns so strongly. Unlearn the rigid image of what "men" and "women" can and cannot look like. Carve the existence of people who don't fall into either (or fall to both) into your worldview.
Your trans loved ones will appreciate it so much.

I think youâre talking about these posts [here & here], I donât know if there have been others.
I'm not gonna say what I did was right, you are correct I should probably just not respond to asks getting me to talk about other people. I will say for these two posts those people had already blocked me Iâm pretty sure, so itâs kinda hard to talk directly to them in that case. And I was not doing so anonymously and had not blocked them so I wasnât hiding what I was saying. I did not follow them, I am not part of the innitor community, and not that that makes it right but I do think it is kinda different. Though you make a good point, perhaps we should stop this pattern of responding to asks about other blogs and such.
Still, the biggest thing to me I realized, back in elementary school when I first dealt with this, was that honestly all the time we talk about people behind their back. Talking about people when they arenât always in the room is kinda just inevitable and part of socializing, however I think the important part is how you are talking about other people. Itâs when you are insulting them, talking negatively about them to people they know, spreading false information and so on that it becomes not okay. Hopefully that makes sense.
In these cases I merely focused on the lore. I didnât insult them or talk shit about them, as a person, as a blog or say their takes were stupid or they are stupid or speculate about their trauma or mental history. I just talked about reasons why I disagreed, or saw things differently and why we might see things differently. They were also not the only ones I saw to say similar things so I think in my mind I was making more of a general discussion, not trying to target them specifically. I didnât post beyond that about them. But you are right, regardless it was probably not the right way to go about things.
But just to be clear, if I am a hypocrite it is not my intention. I havenât vague blogged anyone or meant to vague reblog anyone. I think this week is pretty much the first time Iâve ever been not naming, passive aggressively talking about blogs, and even then Iâm not trying to insult them, trying to cancel them. Iâm just expressing that before you go off about how Iâm stupid and unable to have a discussion about it, the very least you couldâve done was give me an opportunity to try.
#Iâm not going to say Iâve handled everything like I should. I feel like usually I try to tag people and include context and pictures so Iâm#not trying to be passive aggressive or talk about people behind their back.#Iâm not hiding. I havenât even used the Tommy neg tag and I feel like I always leave things open and - here is my opinion it is not the onl#one or maybe even the right one or - here are my thoughts at the moment of 1am or here is the loreâŠ#I made my alt name and image very clearly still me. Iâm not trying to be sneaky or backhanded or insult You for an opinion or call You dumb#and if I have insulted or hurt someone Iâm genuinely sorry and didnât mean to. Something I try to reiterate#as my tone can come across as aggressive#crumbs#hello there#but see how we can have a discussion of -hey flora maybe you shouldnât be talking about other people without tagging them or going directly#to them and I can be like - yea you have a good point. your right thatâs not being respectful to them.#clarifications#thats what I'm really asking for. the respect to see if I am going to be as bad as you assume. give me the benefit of the doubt#I don't know what I'm doing. I don't know all the internet etiquette or slang. this is my first time participating in a fandom#my first time on tumblr. on ao3. the first time I've gotten actual like interactions on things beside like graduation pics#not to plead ignorance as innocence#but I know I don't know everything & am not claiming to thats why I try to leave safe space for people to come respectfully to me#after feeling aggressive backlash and seeing it happen I have since tried to make sure I try to respect other people's opinions#now that doesnt mean that if you just leave an anon in my inbox Im going to respond to it if I have already talked about it.#- okay you disagree. I stated my opinion you've stated yours and if there is no further point to discuss then I might not respond#though I did make this blog to perhaps respond more to things like that since you did take the time to say it the least I can do it respond#(and I cant just send you a direct message if you go anon <3)#uh... anyways didn't mean to leave an essay here oops... hope im making sense to someone :)

potional hot take(?) I've wanted to make a post or video about how people doomposting about the downfall of the Vocaloid fandom is not productive and also very annoying or how "Sekai killed vocaloid" is a false statement and literally just "old thing good new thing bad" posting
but honestly nothing gets my point across better than the VocaDB chart of miku songs released over the years
note: Project Sekai released in 2020 also reminder this is JUST Miku
Vocaloid is not dying you just literally are not looking for new songs
#vocaloid#project sekai#i have a lot more to say but having opinions on the internet is scary#ohh i can already see the hate comments coming in#i think personally its way more productive to use your energy promoting things you like than shitting on things you hate#but you do you#statistically speaking you will like at least some new songs that are releasing#don't like the popular songs? you are aware its ok to listen to a song with a couple thousand veiws right?

What if I just fucking died.
#I hate the internet#I hate insta#i hate so much when all I want to do is fucking love#I have just seen about 70 men saying itâs a girls fault for being attracted when she didnât acknowledge a man.#and/or saying that choosing a bear is dumb and âitâs not all menâ no! no itâs not! your so right! because it can be fuckin women too.#but guess what? I can at least defend myself against a women#I have a chance to live if she decides to take that right away. I donât fucking have that if a man attacks me!#Iâm dead.#their bigger stronger and fucking better for doing so.#I would trust being in the woods with my abuser more then a man.#because I have a fucking more likely chance to win and not die in those woods.

Get to know your mutuals! Thank you @panfroggy for mentioning me!!!! <3
What's the origin of your blog title? Well, back in the day (a little over a yearish ago) my usual moniker was "stargirl," but obviously that's pretty generic, so I was trying to think of something to do with star. I think I wanted "star_light" but that's also kinda generic, so for some reason I thought of the saying "lights up," like someone's face lighting up in a smile, and since I'm a friendlyish kinda person I was like! Oh! Perfect! And did star-light....s-up! So it can be read as star light as the main part or lights up as the main part!

The âvote blue no matter who!â crowd is starting to get on my nerves. Like, Iâm trying not to give away the game, but do they even know that weâre playing?
The point of loudly denouncing Biden and the Democrats NOW is to threaten them into stopping a fucking genocide thatâs happening NOW. It is the only (legal) way we can threaten them as their constituents. Itâs a game of fucking chicken! If the Dems were legitimately concerned about ceding office to Trump, they would take action NOW to try and recapture voters. But they donât because they think they can get away with literal genocide and still win the Oval Office because voters like you are too chicken or too paralyzed to make a simple threat.
I donât give a fuck what you do in the ballot box come November but jfc this is about collective bargaining and you cowards canât even pretend to give enough of a fuck about a genocide to threaten your reps like??? Grow a fucking spine and do the bare fucking minimum of voicing your solidarity.
#ra speaks#personal#us politics#vote blue no matter who#genocide joe#YOU đ CAN đ LIE đ! you can say out loud in public âIâm not going to vote for Bidenâ and vote for genocide Joe in November anyway#I canât say i (random internet user) will think highly of that future decision but at least you MADE A THREAT even if you couldnât stomach#carrying it through. god. you claim to care and know so much about how broken the system is#but you canât even play one of the few games we have left as voters to get leverage against people who do not care abt us.#âtrump will be worse!â WHO IN PALESTINE WILL LIVE TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE IF YOU CANT MAKE A THORNLESS THREAT TO A MAN WHO IS âBETTERâ#âwe know youâre not firebombing Walmart opâ IM NOT. IM MAKING A POLITICAL THREAT OF WITHDRAWING MY SUPPORT.#IT IS LITERALLY THE FUCKING LEAST I CAN DO.#my followers know Iâm very much a âeverybody wants a glorious Revolution but no body wants to do the dishesâ kinda anarchist#I believe in the little incremental victories of mutual aid and community gardens.#but incremental victories will not save lives in Palestine right now. this is the time to BLUFF and THREATEN the âlesser evilâ#into being you know. LESS FUCKING EVIL.#if you reblog this be real niceys to me or at the very least be fucking normal.

How it feels to tag the official account in my fanart post on insta and then they don't share it in their stories
#i mean it's finejust kind of. very embarrassing.#i guess i just figured that since they share lots of stuff i might as well tag them every once in a while since other ppl do it#when i'm happy enough with the drawing to feel like doing that you know#anyway i'm not truly bothered just embarrassed lol. you know how it is with me and overthinking stuff anyway#but yeah i'm much more preoccupied with a different thing right now at least so. that's pretty important#like how my flight is literally tomorrow and my journey has already started technically so uhhhh. pretty crazy!#i'm probably going to be talking about the incredible event of boarding the plane tomorrow in that case.#since i'm sure that's very important to share#i just hope it all goes well and i can still use the internet while we're in the uk bcs i guess it's not like 100% certain yet#because my old ass lame phone doesn't support e sims which we so thoughtfully purchased earlier. just for it to not work#but yeah ok it's gonna be a very eventful rest of the week to say the least#so i hope i'll be able to leave some updates here on all that in the meantime!#goosepost

#i honestly feel more anticipation over finding out if that one blog with a cousin is real or not#cause if tommy doesnt one scene or isnt in tmr's episode ill know for sure not to listen to them at all#like some of the stuff theyve said has been proven right but its also i think important to remember that sometimes people can just#make educated guesses it could just be there will be content or interviews and its like well there were but were you just guessing based#on what other people said ? or do you actually have a cousin ?#im not putting a lot of stock into it at all yknow im old enough to know not to trust randoms on the internet#its just been nagging at me for a while bc on the one hand i dont think b/ddie has absolutely been taken off the table#at least in terms of everyone on set knows it wont. i think tim is just going with the flow so their insistence#that they KNOW it wont happen feels fake-ish but does that also mean the rest of what they're saying is fake too?#like tommy wont be in the premiere and there isnt talks of them continuing this relationship#girl i have trust issues with this show and fandom im always like âwell youre probably lying... but then again...â lol
