#bc i have had my fair share of arguments bc people don't use the right tags and I'm not getting into that again

https://www.tumblr.com/echobx/746378100483473408/sometimes-i-go-onto-jiara-twitter-just-to-have-a?source=share idk if you saw but they posted your post on jiara twitter🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 i wonder how they found it (@koalacarrera )

okay so, this is what girlie had to say

all she said concerning canon is correct, but there was no reason to be so pissy about it.

I fully agree, they did write the boys like that, it's extremely clear in ep1. HOWEVER if we look solely at JJ, after episode 1 his "romantic" intrest is no longer mentioned or in any shape or form visible on screen or in the script past s2 (i literally read it, please bbg)

my initial issue with the post I saw on twitter, the one who made me even post anything on here, was bc the jiara stan that posted it was literally saying that JJ caring about Kie and wanting her to be okay after she nearly drowned, was only because he has romantic feelings for her. That was my issue. The problem isn't that they can't be friends or can't be romantically involved. The problem is that the writers AND these types of fans (including mademoiselle up there) seem to not understand how fucked up it is that they keep on perpetuating this stereotype. especially when it comes to a woman of color who was the only girl in a male dominated friend group for probably most of her life for all we know.

I've had more friendships with boys than girls in my life, and yes half of them the guys wanted more, but the other half was genuinely only platonically interested in me and I still feel like those friendships went way deeper than the others although none of them were truly as deep to call them my best friends. (apart from one, and he's still my best friend to this day)

finally saying "ofcourse boys and girls can just be friends but i don’t care because this is for entertainment. it’s just not that serious" is yet again proving to me that media literacy is dying. anyone with a brain will know that what we see on screen or written or listen to in music always portrays a specific viewpoint and it is always in our best interest to understand and criticize when something is not the way it should be, saying, it shows us something that needs to be changed for society to evolve.

and I'm not saying that this issue is as big of a problem for society as others, it certainly isn't, but portraying this type of relationship between girls and boys in a way that OBX does it plays into the bigger picture of why we need feminism and why we need to start teaching boys to be better men.

platonic love goes so much deeper than most romantic love, but most of you, including the girl who posted this, probably don't even know that or they can't tell the difference between platonic love and romantic love.

PS I'm never not blaming the writers. they did a bad job. this show has more plot holes than the strainer I use for my pasta. but that wasn't at all was my post was about. yet again. the reading comprehension is piss poor, my dudes.

PPS you watch the show for fun and you turn off your brain. but subconsciously you take it in. all of it. every little bit of discriminatory behavior or prejudice that lies under the surface. because you decide to not look at it. because you believe it doesn't concern you. and I do hope it never will. but I, and so many others, do not have this privilege of being able to look away completely. even if it's just a silly little boat show.

PPPS don't send her any hate or anything. I just left the tag in the screenshot bc it was already mentioned above so it didn't matter anyway.

First things first: I am not deactivating. Just. Taking a break.

Mututals: You can get my discord if I don't ask for yours before I leave in a couple days. You can also give me a snap though I may be worse at responding to that.

This is my reasons for leaving so no one thinks I do anything crazy, or if anyone has their own gripe they can take this as a sign to take a mental health break of your own.

.

The Racism on this site remains unchecked, and the agression against black user who call it out should absolutely NOT be that high. You adore recreating the racist systems that got us here in the first place. You think your lense on how we experience opression, even the theories we wrote, are better and clearly so much superior.

Exorsexism is disgustingly rampant. We are a jokes to people. We are fakes to other. We are a convenient argument about people passing. We are "dangerous" to a preciously protected set of binaries that do nothing to help any of us.

Lesbophobia across the site has no reason to be so high on a site with so many Lesbians and yet!! We treat labels like they're more important than lives. People act like a personal interpretation of the idenity is an attack. We go "Being a Lesbian is so complex. It's intricate and special" And then when a butch takes t, or a femmes uses he and maybe even gets top surgery, or someones attraction isnt the simply wlw Lesbianism they're told they're doing it wrong and that it's not fair to try and over complicate being a lesbian.

Transandrophobia and Transmisogyny against me and other trans people on this site is out of control. People are infighting and people are lashing out laterally and comparing it 1:1 to the opression the system holds against all of us.

Intersexism continues to be like, so easy for you guys to commit no matter how many voices speak up about how best to be aware of intersex issues.

You guys adore ableism just as you have for years and years. You're obsessed with degrading people who do mental illness or disability "wrong." You see someone stuggling with illness and you don't wait to tell them your personal opinion on their experience. Adding ocd triggering guilt tripping to post. Refusing to hear out people about adding image ids/alt images and how screen readers work.

The Antisemitism I was seeing well before 10/7 was gross. It only increased as people scrambled not to be associated with "the bad jew." People had mutuals and friends for years that abandoned them at the first chance. They spread lies or twisted truths in order to chose Jewish bloggers off the site. I DO notice that when people make post on antisemitism there is often more Jewish people than goy in the notes acknowledging it. I don't think I've seen one without horrid Antisemitism in it's own notes in months. Multiple people have told me to leave my heritage out of pride in their attempts to keep out Jewish people.

Voices from Palstine are only used when they support certain ideas. You all turned supporting people into a fucking witch hunt against profiles on the Internet. You reblog a post of Palastine joy and then reblog an unsourced tweet about something Palstinians have said isn't true, that slanders Jewish people unprompted. For a long time some of you weren't even sharing the right sources for helping them bc you couldn't fact check before sharing?

-

And then there's fucking STAFF. They couldn't stop themselves from banning trans blogs if you paid them. They couldn't keep harassment campaigns at bay if it killed someone.

They used us to coax queer people here for years by sharing that they support queer identities and even at one point let our porn exist here! And then it was all fucking wiped off the map. Now one mass reporting of an untrue claim can get an minorties blog permanently removed.

They say "We need money!" but when people gave it to them this site got w o r se. They use distractions and try and make stuff around the fun shit we came up with to keep us from fussing.

They mute and remove users who make a loud enough point to sway people. They mute and removes uses that are so quiet no one would notice.

Minorties inboxes are a headache.

.

So I'm out. I'll probably be back at some point because I have things I DO enjoy here.

But for mental health I just gotta catch my breath.

This will be my pinned until I get back I guess im case anyone wonders where I went.

I'll have a queue going of a few last minute things i want on my blog but when it runs out thats it for a while until I return.

Thats all

Hippie love

Now we all know rimmers views on hippies BUT what happens if his partner so happened to be one...

(I haven't written anything publicly in ages, so please excuse me. I'm a bit rusty, miladdo)

Contains: female reader,Ooc rimmer bc I suck at writing him, there's a word for it, but I canny remember so it's off topic from the actual plot of red dwarf <3

Y/n joined the boys in the cockpit of starbug. Today, the alert system was rattling away like no other. The boys were very occupied with this and she had no choice but to watch. Unfortunately.

"Hey, the radars are picking up a distance space craft," Lister announced, flicking switches, pressing buttons, and other necessities. Y/n walked up to the front to get a load of this herself. She inspected the screen, and it displayed a 100 or so yards space craft lingering in front of starbug.

"Now hey hey, maybe they're in need of help!" She suggested, making light of all things negative. That's what y/n did, with her spiritual view on everything she always had hope that in everyone kindness hid. Except her boyfriend, rimmer, rimmers kindness got lost in the womb.

"Well, wouldn't they have sent a distress call already? I mean, c'mon y/n, the last time you suggested someone was nice, they tried to maul you to death!" Rimmer scoffed, giving her a look that was different from the ones he gave to the boys but still meant the same. His look to her was softer. Y/n rolled her eyes.

"We can always hope, can't we? Everyone knows the saying, 'Make love not war,' " she stated, very clearly expressing her views. The four boys looked at her strangley like the past few times y/n tried to help people out it always backfired.

"I may not be smart, but what you just said sure made me feel like it!" Cat laughed, moving on from her horrible opinion. She tsked and turned to her boyfriend for some support, which he only shrugged at.

"Wow. You lot are gonna regret this later on when I'm right and you're all wrong! Especially you, Arnold Judas Rimmer!" Y/n glared directly at him, which he tried to hide away from by ducking down, but it clearly didn't work as she pointed a finger at him to make it more obvious she didn't appreciate his no support. Lister 'Oooed' at rimmers telling off, soon snickering alongside cat and kryten who surprisingly joined in. Getting his fair share from it.

After what...unfortunately happened with coming to contact with the space craft whose members didn't seem to be what y/n wished, she quickly got her taunting from Lister who did NOT stop bothering her about it for the rest of the day. Rimmer enjoyed watching her get frustrated by all this but soon packed it in when he was pulled from his collar to somewhere quiet. Too quiet.

He looked down at his girlfriend, who didn't seem so pleased with him. He gulped uncontrollably.

"Don't think you're getting away from this, mister. What happened to you 'finally' supporting my opinions?" She huffed in anger. Rimmer licked his lips, letting out a soft chuckle which left y/n more furious then before.

"What's so funny, rimmer?" She growled. She never really used her boyfriends last name unless she was really ticked off, and she was.

"Well, have a think now, will you? Smoking 12 joints a day and saying 'peace and love' won't get the attention from anyone, will it? Well, unless if the beatles were in town," he cheekily replied. Y/n clicked her tongue in disbelief. She stood herself up on her tippy toes, so she was somewhere near his height to begin giving him a piece of her mind. Verbally.

"You've got the cheek, haven't you arnold? Don't start getting used to this power cause im pulling it straight out of you very soon." she whispered. Whenever y/n started to lower her voice in an argument, it somewhat seemed more sincere and rimmer didn't like this.

"Look, I apologise, but -" rimmer started off strong, but his speech was muffled by a soft peck on the lips. He raised a brow, confused by why y/n changed up so quickly, but it soon hit. It hit him very hard. She was gonna use this all against him until...well, whenever she felt was the right time. Y/n was never the one to continue being angry or any of those negative emotions, but her boyfriend, Arnold j. Rimmer filled that all in for her, so she enjoyed using herself against him in a more gentle way. Which he infact did not like.

"Isn't this all silly! Let's move on before we both get riled up. Now let me go make your bed darling" she smiled, stroking his cheek softly. His brows furrowed, confused.

"But I always sleep in your bed?" He said, watching her leave his side and off to his and listers quarters.

"Not tonight! Think I'll be too 'peace and love' for you" she smiled innocently, knowing her cheek over him was working. She skipped away leaving him with many unanswered questions.

"But- wait! Wait y/n I love your hippieness! I love hippies, please don't let me share a room with lister again!" Rimmer yelled after her.

"Hang on, are you going hippie on us rimmer?" Lister smirked, coming into the room just in time. Rimmer turned to look at him, face full of disgust.

"Oh shut up lister"

-------------------‐--------------------------

OMG OMG, I was going through my drafts and I found this. Why did I not post it it's the best one I've done in like a year bc this is the only one😭 I'll try to post more often I've js not been feeling it at all recently.

[atalana]

i know that wasn't the point of that post, but can i just say that i had never stopped to think that if im a bi woman who only wants to date women, calling myself a bi lesbian is an option. and now i feel lile that gif of the cat that gets a flower placed on his head. this very neatly resolves an internal conflict I've had for quite a while, so thank you for that <3

and thank you for sending this! i was a little worried seeing the notification, honestly, bc i have gotten way more than my fair share of hate over this particular opinion, so it was really nice to know this is someone i helped! but yeah, this is an opinion i'm not gonna budge on, because i'm not doing it to start arguments, i'm doing it to remind people that they're in control of their own lives and their own labels, that the queer community is way bigger and more complicated than most of the internet seems to think, and anyone who assumes that people with identities that don't fit neatly into boxes could ever be hurting the queer community by existing are just pandering to the same respectability politics as "well if you would just be a nicer gay, we'd all get rights"

nah. the people oppressing us don't give a shit what our labels are, any form of queer is too queer for them

so you might as well call yourself whatever feels most right to call yourself, and fuck anyone who tells you you can't

[vaicomcas]

I like how Desti3llers use the scenes where Dean feels sad/worried when Cas dies as a proof of how Dean cares so much about Cas and how much he loves him bc yeah it is.... bad that the only real time where Dean is remotely worried/sad about Cas is when Cas literally fucking dies. He sometimes is not even that much of sad about it. In S9 when Castiel tried to go back to Heaven with informing that he might get killed by angels up there, Dean just says 'so ET goes home' no worried remarks, no asking and showing genuine concern and no trying to stop Castiel. When Castiel's grace was dying (thus Cas was dying too slowly) the Winchesters didnt even care. It was Crowley who found and helped Castiel instead of Dean or Sam even though we have previously seen that Cas literally saved Dean and Sam's life in terms of crisis. One of the things that really makes me angry so much is when Cas is dying in S12 and tells the Winchesters that he loves them. None of them say it back and honestly none of them seem to be worried that much. Honestly even Mary looked more concerned... but it was lackluster. Dean constantly bringing up the topic that 'he doesnt leave famiky behind' was just getting tiring at that point. Like. Those have just become empty worse as time went by.

''Dean cares for Cas when he dies and he loves him bc of that'' is just...... a bad argument when the show is just. goes against that. And then I am not even going to talk about 15X18 because we know what happens there and after that. I just hate it. hate it with all my being.

I share your rage and frustration. "Stuck in middle with you" was one of the rare occasions the Winchesters actually did anything for Cas, so people are always holding it up as evidence of how Cas is family for them. But like wouldnt any decent person do the same for a colleague and a friend? What's the alternative, leave him to die (which, btw, they have done plenty of times)? Besides, they had to deal with Ramiel for their own survival. It was Crowley who came to aide Cas when he didn't have to, ultimately Crowley who actually saved Cas.

Dean loving Cas only when he dies is pretty clear. If I am trying to be fair, Dean does love Cas in a sense, but what he loves is what Cas does for him--always in his corner, always fighting for him. He takes it for granted, sure, but he came to need that and when it's gone he grieves. But it's all about him, about his needs, not about Cas or what Cas needs.

If I want to be cynical? I'd say Dean likes to perform grief. Look at these two images. The one on the left when Charlie died. The one on the right when Cas died after season 12. Pretty much mirror images. Sure he could be genuinely in grief in both cases. But don't tell me this performance of grief was any proof that Cas was any more special to him than his countless "my friend dies woe is me why do bad things always happen to me" cases.

[nexyra]

What is your take on rwby chara's mbti types? I think

Weiss - xSTJ, thought that she was ESTJ at first but ISTJ makes a lot of sense too.

Winter - ESTJ

Pyrrha - ESFJ

Emerald - ISFJ (I've seen some ppl type her as INFJ but I don't see how she is a Ni dom?)

Whitley - ENTJ? I'm honestly not sure abt that..

Adam - fucked up xNFJ, probably INFJ (seen him typed as xNTJ but his delusional thinking process imo screams unhealthy Ti and I think his manipulation of Blake and the WF is more Fe than Te

Qrow - was thinking ISTP but with the more recent volumes I'm really not sure..

Penny - ENFP

Ozpin - Uuuuuh INTP maybe?? But I've seen some people type him as INFJ. INFJ 5w6 would make sense as to why he might appear as an INTP but idk..

Bartholomew- ENTP

Jaune - no fucking idea honestly

Ironwood - ENTJ

Sun - Seen ppl type him as ENFP but I don't see any Ne at all..,,ESFP?

Yang - ESxP, maybe ESTP

Cinder - INTJ

Mercury - ISTP

Oscar - ISFJ

Ren - ISTx?

Hello anon ! I see my love for typology hasn't gone unnoticed 😂 Thank you so much for the ask !

I prefer enneagram over MBTI because I find it easier to type; so fair warning that I'm not an authority on MBTI-typing. But I do have have an ongoing RWBY typing that includes MBTI sooo... here goes !

(I'm putting my ennea typings along with it, but not explaining them on this post)

➸ RWBYJNPR

Ruby • xNFP 6w7 9w1 2w3?

I just can't decide between the two fors Ruby because... it kind of goes both way ??? Like Ruby definitely feels as INFP for the first half of the series; she's got a clear Fi > Ne preference... But then when she develops her Tert in V6 it's just... Te ? And she really doesn't show much Si actually she fits more the Si inf vibe in the form of forgetting about bad memories and her mom until people dig it up and she's like "nooo !" ?? So it looks like Te > Si but also Fi > Ne; conclusion idfk

Weiss • ISTJ 1w2 6w5 3w4 sp/so

Clear Fi tert rearing its head along with the 1 so I'm going with ISTJ; I also never really saw any Ne. Her type isn't too disagreed upon so tell me if you want a lenghtier explanation.

Blake • ISFP 6w5 9w8 4w3 (in some order)

Wooh this might get the anger of some (i have experience with the INFJ typers) but Blake goddamn REEKS of Fi. Less so recently but for the first seasons oh my god. She straights up catch you by the shirt and tells you "I'm doing the right thing"; and said right thing is so heavily dependant on her own subjectives values, which is why Blake can't reconcile with the current White Fang; because she doesn't have a strong Je vision of "what objectively works in the end", she only sees actions in terms of immediate right and wrong, and this b&w dichotomy stems from herself. What the WF is doing is wrong and the circumstances don't matter for judging the morality of their actions (of course I'm not talking about murder here bc that's pretty wrong ALL THE TIME but for example the stealing occuring in V1 bc of the WF is a better example)

Yang • ESXP 7w8 8w7 2w3

I'm sorry about that but I can't help you on that aspect anon, I still can't make up my mind about whether Yang has Fi or Ti. I have seen arguments for both, and i'm not the best at picking up on Ti so it's hard for me to tell.

Jaune • ESFJ 6w7 3w2 9w1

No strong opinions on his MBTI, it's kinda just based on vibes

Nora • ENFP 6w7 9w8 3w2

Textbook ENFP, not much to say here x))

Pyrrha • XXFJ 2w1 1w2 6?

In my list Pyrrha is currently written down as ISFJ but that's mostly based on the general consensus and me wanting to get rid of the XX. I don't actually have any convincing arguments to decide on Ni or Si, so I could go either way if someone else makes their case well. I feel like she's Fe aux more than dom, but even about that I could change my mind. Pyrrha didn't have that much screentime in the end :((

Ren • ISTJ? 9w1 5w4 4w5

Ironically I'm not sure about his type, kind of like you. I've mentionned I'm not very good at picking up on Ti right ? And Ren was a background character before V4 really. I had him written down as ISTP for a while but I've seen some convincing arguments for ISTJ so I might lean toward that actually but who knows. The thing I'm very confident about is his 5 fix = )

➸ Faunus bonus

Sun • ESFP 7w6 2w3 9w1 so/sx

I don't see any Ne at all either so I don't understand the ENFP typings...?? Maybe the 7 stereotypes ? Imo Sun is just a very good boy; certified ESFP 7 himbo; triple positive sunshine !

Ilia • Ti-Fe axis ?

Again, not enough screentime for me to make an educated guess. My only certainty is : not high Fi. It's the source of their conflicts. Blake confidence in absolute right & wrong, tracing lines in the sand between acceptable & unacceptable. Whereas Ilia can only shake her head and say "Because it works", or cry out "I don't know what else to do !"

Adam • 3w4 8w7 6w5

I honestly don't really have much of an opinion about Adam's MBTI, i'm sorry anon ;; I don't know enough about how he thinks

➸ Oz-related things and his circle

Ozpin • INFJ 5w4 2w1 1w9

I would personally call him an INFJ. I... never really got INTP vibes from him ? I don't see the Fe inf work out with his interactions : he's always rather at ease, he knows how to navigate around people... His focus inherently lies on doing what's best for the "group", the people, humanity. Fx functions are both concerned with ethics, in different ways, and I think Oz reflects that well. He IS concerned with the moral weight of his actions, but it's a more adaptable and unpersonnal concern than Fi people. He regards Ironwood's soul machines as something wrong, but can still agree to use it if the situations demand it for example. So... if the INFJ + 5 makes sense to you, well that's what I'm typing him personally. I also feel like Ni fits him more than Ne. Ozpin has a very linear way of planning, he does use his fair share of symbolism in every day conversation... Even when taking decisions, he... kind of cares about the meaning of things a lot ? It's hard to explain but like; the way he highlights the difference between an army and a guardian, and the emotionnal response it brings. I don't know it feels like there's some Ni vibes in there x)

Oscar • ISFJ 9w8 6w7 3w2

Oscar's type honestly isn't the one I would have the easiest time explaining in lenght but yea. It's mostly vibes; also just like Ozpin he doesn't seem to have a particularly Fi reasonning. And he feels more grounded, I don't really remember any Ni so... yay ?

Ironwood • ENFJ 6w5 1w2 3w4 (pre-Vol8); ENTJ (post-Vol8)

Might be weird if you think he was a dictator from the start, but I kind of entertained the idea of Ironwood being Fe dom ? From his very first interaction it was very clear that he was a Je dom to me; he's all about objective results; he doesn't give off the "internal framework" or "personnal values" vibe AT ALL; so it was more a matter of picking Te or Fe. He LOOKS super Te don't get me wrong; but he also has an enneagram tritype that is very common amongst XXTJs (and TJs stereotypes thus derive from it). And just like Oz, his focus at all time seemed to be the greater good and doing what's best for the people still. So I was like... Eh, a "harsh" ENFJ I think that's interesting ? Plus Fe ethics actually derive from their environment, kinda like "everyone agrees that Y is wrong", and if you consider that James is from Atlas... Well his way of thinking and ethics align pretty well with the military.

His character took a turn for the worse in V8 (whether too quick or not depends on who you ask) and past that point he's a clear ENTJ; but I feel like it was more debatable before that. Idk though I might be overthinking this in the hope of making more interesting combinations xD

Qrow • ISTP 4w3 6w7? 1w9? sp/sx

I don't really see anything else than ISTP for Qrow... But he's not a character I would want to find Ti arguments for either.

Raven • ENTJ Cp6w5 8w9 3w4

Most villains get called ENTJ at the first occasions tbh zlqfznhqzkf but I think it fits Raven for the most part actually...

➸ Atlas

Winter • ESTJ 1w9 3w4 6w5

The whole Schnee family has the same enneagram tritype in different order/different wings, it's ridiculous I think she has a higher Te than Weiss, and Fi inf fits her more. She struggles more to reconcile with her emotions and the idea of a personal right/wrong than her little sis.

Penny • ENFP 4w3 6w7 9w1 sx/so

Perfect example of a healthy 4, she's a great friend a cutie pie. ... Sorry we were talking about MBTI x) Well again, textbook ENFP. Not much to debate here.

Whitley • 3w4 1w9 6w5?

Not enough material for me to guess a MBTI type correctly either, sorry... I could see some kind of xNTJ yea but it's really just vibes and not enough concrete.

➸ Antagonists and Extras

Cinder • 8w7 3w4 6w5

Never cared to guess her MBTI type. I hereby type her as insufferable qkfqskfq. More seriously, I don't really know sorry Anon :/

Emerald • 2w3 ?w? ?w?

I never got Fe vibes from her tbh, I just think she's a 2. And Fe as a function is very infused with 2 stereotypes. So yea. Like, she isn't even that worried about the morality of her actions or anything more than the other villains. She just cares more about her personal relationships and being loved, so she automatically looks much nicer, especially with 2 mechanisms of trying to make herself useful and needed. Also because she's surrounded by 8-ish people xD

Mercury • 8w9 7w8 ?w?

ISTP doesn't sound too farfeteched, but I never MBTI-typed him either, sorry.

+

Bartholomew Oobleck • xSxJ 5w4

The only vibe he gave me is Si somewhere because of all his talks about learning from the past and everything repeats itself and it's a mine of informations at Mountain Glen... That's really the only time I tried to put down anything for him, and it was Si + 5. He could be some kind of xNTP nerd too for sure, but that's more vibe and I couldn't make an actual argument for it.
