#but i also do understand the criticism ig i just don’t care that much

[frostluvrs]

i genuinely think the idea that kang changed too fast is about to be shot down by him act just like his old self but in a completely different way when he finds out sailom is escorting again 🥴🥴

[azriaann]

sorry guys i’ve been thrown into a fairy tail obsession recently after not touching the series since i was like 15 so bear with me💀

but after catching up with the series, there is genuinely no way that natsu wouldn’t feel guilty about burning lucy after his loss of control in 100yq chapter 20ish (idk the exact chapter my bad😕). like you’re telling me this mf who blames himself constantly for other people’s injuries and shit wouldn’t lose his mind over accidentally hurting his best friend?!?!? it doesn’t really make sense to me. like i get that this series isn’t really marked by tangible character development or critical conversations between characters but come ON!!!! you’re telling me he just jokes about it?!?! i KNOW that he can be written in a way that allows him to reflect on his actions, we’ve seen it before (most notably during the gmg+eclipse arc) so i just don’t understand why there wouldn’t be an internal conflict, even if it’s just about his demonic origin and its way of making him lose himself. like maybe i missed something because i didn’t fully reread the entire thing since i just don’t care about any of the new characters (i am only here to see what happens with nalu🫡gods strongest soldier of the slow burn war).

i am glad tho that the series is FINALLY expanding upon his “struggle” (putting it in apostrophes because it’s not exactly a full-blown struggle yet LMAO) because i always felt that there is so much more to natsu as END than was originally written ig. they’ve got this strong main character who has always been fighting for the good side who now has this massive connection to the strongest “evil” wizard in the series, obviously they can do sooooo much more with it… so im glad that it’s finally coming to light😋😋😋 and surely it comes back, it feels like lucy saying that “that was the first time [his] flames scared her” will surely come back into play when they eventually fight ignia again (which made me lose my mind btw😭 LIKE UR KIDDING THATS CRAZY). i’m hoping that lucy’s hesitance to join the fight in the most recent chapter (which.. yes is because it’s athena and lucy always forms super deep bonds with people lol love her) could also be a partial fear of seeing nat’s lose control again…. sorry yall I LOVE ANGST IN STORIES AND THERES SO KUCH POTENTIAL HERE… really hoping that the writers don’t drop the ball (this time…).

Hey. Idk if this is me growing up or just being disillusioned with inter celebs etc. Im a 23 yr old trans man so I grew up and was inspired by chella on the YouTube community. But now I just…don’t like chella man anymore. I feel like…he became an industry plant? Over the pandemic asking fans for money to send to him directly to help others and not showing where the money was going exactly incident as well as just becoming older I noticed he seemed to almost want to become the next Keith haring or basquiat? He almost…now seems very fake? He takes deals with brands to be representation but doesn’t do much to call out certain brands for their faults etc.

Idk anymore

I give Chella credit in that he was one of the few transmen that I looked up while I was young, especially with him being BIPOC. Showing him to my family helped them understand me. But that's where the inspiration kinda stops, because it was painful to be surrounded by years-in-transition trans men online when I was absolutely nowhere I wanted to be. That was a me problem tho. But I also didn't know much about his whole donation incident.

Ig heres what I have to say. It's not great to view other people as your justification of your morals. We don't know how people have had to live or how they live now, we don't know what decisions they have to make, and we dont know what kind of fears or goals they have. Chella is allowed to do whatever he wants with his art or his modelling career, just like how I genuinely believe anyone else in the world is capable of making the right decisions for themselves (even if we dont like those decisions!). Im not really concerned with figuring out if hes an industry plant or a "class traitor" (lol) or even if he's "fake". To be honest, I'm all for BIPOC folks getting their $. Does that mean I enjoy seeing wealthy BIPOC folk perpetuate classism and racism? No. Just cuz someone is succeeding for themselves doesn't mean people cant critique them. I guess what Im saying is I see waaay too many people online take the things they enjoy and the people they follow as projections of their morals: "no! stop [Insert celebrity name] you're being problematic and its makes us fans look bad!" Like....Okay lmfao. People are grown adults and are going to make decisions for themselves. Just because you might enjoy a celebrity does not mean your morals are based on how good of a person they are.

and youre allowed to not like the same things anymore just like how people are allowed to change, for better or for worse. I think within online communities there is way too much pressure on "looking" like a good person versus actually being one...because sometimes BEING a good person makes you look absolutely vile in terms of online spaces/communities love of isolating, removing, and deleting "problematic" (and vulnerable) people from their spaces with no trial, discussion, or attempt at conflict mediation. Yea yea I do think people have every right to be criticized just as they have every right to make whatever decision they want, but what Im trying to get at is to really stop viewing anyone with a platform as someone you can other once they dont meet your standards. This is not the same as denouncing or critiquing someone for really egregious behavior (white supremacy, harrassment, bullying, interpersonal violence). Once you kinda start living by your own morals without needing other people's actions/behaviors to justify/define them, you learn to focus on building connections rather than destroying them.

again, this is a much nuanced topic and you prolly werent expecting me to go into this. but ive grown over the years and have engaged in some nasty and vile mob mentality behavior that i just dont vibe with anymore. im not really the kind of person now to speculate online or publicly what other people are doing or should be doing or whether theyre problematic or not. I don't really care about Chella man or most celebrities rn. People r just gonna be people, and I will always have empathy for those of marginalized identities. Free will, autonomy, and self determination goes both ways, but so does accountability, transformative justice, and reconciliation.

but also like kill ur idols lol

[chevelleneech]

Oooh, BuckTommy shippers have really lost it. Saying Oliver is likely to have Buck’s bisexuality retconned now that Lou is gone. LOU!? Of all the love interests he’s had, got y’all crashing out to the point of insinuating an actor who has been nothing but kind, welcoming, and enthusiastic about portraying his character as any form of queer since season two or three, when Buddie first became a thing, is secretly biphobic? Okay.

I said it before and I’ll say it now, all of you who are reacting this way did not watch to see Buck discover his sexuality (which the show failed to do anyway). Y’all watched purely to see him make out with another man, and were hoping BT never broke up because you’re terrified Buck will date a woman again, thus “taking away” your fantasy of him only liking men, and this temper tantrum proves it, but newsflash! He don’t just like men!

Buck, as Oliver Stark has said multiple times, is bisexual. He likes men and women, and it was even shown in 8x06 that he checked out the woman who asked him to take the photo of her and her friends, which Tommy had no issue with. So this whole fake outrage to try and get Lou back on a show where he clearly was a GUEST STAR who didn’t bind well with too much of the cast to begin with, seeing as y’all also mad they didn’t give him a farewell party. Which is an insane thing to demand when y’all don’t know him nor the rest of the cast, nor the relationship between them.

Point is, you guys are losing your minds over a FICTIONAL relationship, for no reason. I understand it can be hard to part with something you enjoy, but reacting like this is insane, and trying to pad your decisions to be delusional by claiming Buddies harassed Lou so it’s equal, is equally as insane. Buddies are not exempt from criticism, but Lou wasn’t “harassed” for simply existing on screen. Nobody even cared about him for real until he also started charging people to talk to him online. The tide turned fully when his IG was found and his bigoted “sense of humor” was brought to light. Add that to the character of Tommy having a shit past, and he was bound to be disliked.

Does that mean people should tell him to kill himself? Absolutely not, but y’all, please understand the person you’re going up in flames over is an asshole at worst, and a halfway decent guy at best. You’re making up complete and total lies to defend his actions and y’all’s, which has been abysmal from day one. Most of y’all never watch the series from the jump and hate Buddie on principle, or you watched from the start and switched to BT because you thought it’d be Buck’s forever relationship, and started hating Buddie to save yourself from getting your hopes up again.

Now? Now you’re all up in arms because you talked so much shit about Buddie, Buddies, and Ryan Gúzman, that you can’t walk it back. You can’t say, “Damn, I fucked up.” and move on. Y’all are trying to stand on business, which is admirable, but you’re doing it wrong. Just say you don’t like where the show is headed and go. Stop watching, stop interacting. What you don’t need to do is make up lies and pretend things are happening that aren’t.

Oliver has wanted Buck to be queer for years. Upon Buck coming out, Oliver went to bat for him and has steadily stated it makes perfect sense that he is bisexual, given how many scenes over the years help play into the fact even during its FOX run where the execs refused to allow it to happen. So y’all don’t got to like it, but the truth is the truth. Y’all just mad.

Hi! I'm getting married (soonish, we haven't set a date yet) to a transfemme who is early in their transition. I met them when they were 18 and j a depressed anxious socially awkward nerd and over the past like ~year I've watched them blossom into themself (it's magical). But as a tme person sometimes i feel like I'm not fit to be the main person supporting them during this journey, bc they don't have any irl tgirl/transfem friends.

Do you have any suggestions? I'm always trying to learn more about transmisogyny. I took them to get an affirming haircut by a woman I met on Lex, I help with makeup. I've been trying to help them make friends bc they still do have like, a diagnosed social phobia lol. I think it'd be good if I WASNT the main support for this stuff in many ways. And they are like 10x as confident now that they present more authentically, but it's a process. And idk. I know them rly well and love them a lot but I worry sometimes that I'm somehow hurting them or doing the wrong thing.

I know I can't do everything for them (codependency lol) but I want to be the best partner I can be. I'm always asking what they want but sometimes it's like, j figuring out as we go bc it's all new. So what would YOU want from a tme partner ig? How do you assume I could be helpful, better, etc?

Feel free not to respond if this is too much. I don't mean to be putting too much on you. I'm just trying to treat my fiance better and better each day (failing sometimes).

hello and congrats!!! first off this is so touching and aaaa. my god. anyway.

it sounds like you’re really on the right track for sure :) friends are extremely important especially for ppl in minority groups that make socializing harder, so trying to help to her get out of her shell and get to know other people is certainly a great idea; both because she deserves having something of a social group, and because like you say, trans friends can be really critical. i can’t speak with authority since I don’t know you & your situation, but it could definitely help with supporting her and whatnot; i value my transfem friends irl a lot and they’re wonderful with buoying my transition. im not sure id say you’re ‘not fit’ for it unless you dont want to be, since there’s a lot of ways to support and be there for someone’s transition. my femme is tme and she has been wonderful with my transition and helping me explore different gender stuff by helping me with womens clothes, sometimes a little makeup, and her support when im mixing things up with my presentation. she’s happy to change and play with her vocab too; when i realized i like being called pretty from time to time now she works it into when she’s teasing me or being sweet, things like that.

as far as other things id want to see in a tme partner, the willingness to look at transmisogyny and learn about it and work it over is pretty important to me; but it sounds like you’re already working on this, so just keep your mind open with a clear heart. if you make a mistake, trust that you can learn from it and move on. id also say to let her be the one to define and speak about her transition and her past as well, and not to get tripped up on gender too much; i had an ex who was a lesbian and hated hearing me talk about my past as a boy. was very unfortunate. so keep an open mind and if you don’t understand something or you’d like to understand more, try not to be too afraid to ask; I can’t speak for her exactly, but I can say i really don’t mind getting asked about gender stuff or transmisogyny since it shows that someone cares and also gives me a chance to make sure we’re on the same page. and also, while this may be a little risqué, so long as she’s not ace or something id think about making sure you touch and love on her body holistically. a lot of trans women don’t get touched like how cis and other women do, so don’t be afraid to get a little handsy if she doesn’t mind it. having our bodies be actively wanted (touching sides, thighs, etc) can be really very wonderful when we’re taught that we’re repulsive in every way that matters.

so tl;dr: getting her more friends is a great idea for a milieu of reasons! don’t walk on eggshells with transmisogyny too much, just keep an open mind and maybe think about biases sometimes but don’t let it get to your beat and beat you up over it. but I think your concern sounds like it might be a sign that you care and are gonna try, and if that’s the case then approach any issues that come up from an angle of love and i think it should buff out. anyone wanna chime in in the replies?

[tea-with-evan-and-me]

I don't think they aren't famous enough, at least not evan. Deuxmoi, twitter, IG and TikTok have been reporting about it for weeks. So the haley story has reached many people. So a few people might get the idea to make up something as well (see tumblr girl). It's also not like there are 100 sightings, only 4-5.

I don't think it's good that the „deniers“ are sometimes attacked on other networks like IG. I think it's sometimes understandable to question something critically. Not everything was clearly a proof. I think that some people push the story too much. We‘ll see…

honestly, i don’t think anyone cares whether or not some fans believe blind items or rumors. the reason these people garner responses is because they don’t just scroll past, due to the fact they don’t believe unsubstantiated rumors in general.. they purposely seek out the conversation and want to cast doubt on anything pertaining to evan dating haley, simply because they are jealous and upset. i don't want to make it seem like people never lie for internet clout; they absolutely do. but in this scenario, it doesn't really add up. for instance, one of girls who reported the zebulon sighting didn’t even mention that she thought the woman evan was with was “portia from white lotus” until she was asked about who he was with. not the behavior of someone trying to grab attention by spilling she saw the two together.

[viscountessevie]

Tbh this fandom is annoying me soo much and sometimes i feel like you need to share all those strange takes if you don’t want to be called names. I’m all about criticize what need to be criticize but sometimes i ask myself if we aren’t going too far. Sometimes it feels like we are so full of ourselves to think that we know everything. For example I don’t like the fact that Simone can’t like or leave a comment under a post where they are defending POC because people immediately make it about Bridgerton or how some people act as if she is stupid.Since s2 came out, more precisely since the beginning of the year, every single days people talk about the same thing. Now they are starting again with the bts stuffs especially with a photo with the cast except Simone and Claudia. This fandom need to take a position because it’s embarrassing to see the same people say that Simone was happy in B, even posting stuffs where she is all excited and happy about her experience or about her return in s3,and then at the same time stating she was treated badly/ she was isolated by her castmates etc…if a person is victim of all the stuffs this fandom is talking about she can’t be happy or excited and I honestly believe Simone because you can see on her face how really happy she is. So maybe there are indeed some strange stuffs but it’s not completely how some people are imagining 🤷🏻‍♀️…ah people need to remember one thing: CC is a WOC like Simone. You can’t fight for Simone while at the same time be awful to CC even about her stuffs outside Bridgerton because then you only show that it’s not about fighting for WOC rights and all but it’s only a fandom who is obsessed with an actress so they need to shade everything and everyone for her and this is so wrong

[Posting this first because I'm still working on the Regé post 😭😭 - it's longer than I expected and took a toll on me cos looking up receipts of his mistreatment is not fun oop so currently taking a break from that so I can go back to it with a fresh set of eyes! Also will be reblogging gifs and stuff in the meantime just to off load how stressful everything has been not just in terms of the post but life]

Anyways holy smokes anon you went off - hope this helped getting it all off your chest. I do agree with most of these though with this line: "I feel like you need to share all these strange takes if you don't want to be called strange names"

I do hope you're referring to when people overanalyse the IG activities rather than about calling out bigorty and showing solitary especially to the fans and cast of colour. Because we need more of the latter. We cannot stop calling out production and other racist/racially ignorant fans that let them off the hook. Otherwise they'll get even more complacent than they are now.

I agree there have been a lot of repetition but mostly because the Bton team keeps pulling the same shit. Though now I'd argue there's new shit happening every other day sigh.

As for Simone on set, my take is she was fine/okay on set, also the cast isn't buddy buddy like others and that's okay, it is work and a job after all. I think like Jonny mentioned she was probably surprised by their stories and arc in the final script, especially when the audition flashback scripts she got never saw the light of day in the final versions. Maybe a little confused by the way promo rolled out but she doesn't seem like the type to want to centre everything on her so she wasn't going to make a fuss and did her own things instead. That being said still doesn't excuse or make it okay for the way she was sidelined in her own season.

HARD agree on your last point. I've already talked abt this before and yeah I'm indifferent to her as a person and understand why others may not be fans of her (and there are other Indian actresses they prefer anyways which valid) but some anons around just keep spreading hate and I feel like most of us are tired honestly - both fans of CC and those who don't care much for her. Like she's gone guys, let her go.

Anyways thanks for sending this in and hope you feel better anon also it might help to take a step back from the fandom too at times. Breaks are good!

That being said yall I think I'll close asks for a bit, my numbers are giving me a bit of anxiety. But anything urgent at all, my DMs are still open ❤ Thanks for understanding!

Looking for Gabi fans to follow and MC/Gabi fanfics to read. Some of my favorite lgbt litg blogs have either deactivated or are no longer playing litg Suresh fans are trying to hijack Gabi's tag with biphobia and hate posts. I'm scared to open her tag. Suresh fans are hating on lgbt players because FB made Gabi a LI and they can no longer use her to justify Suresh's action. We get enough bigotry from the writers. =( I have met some lgbt fans on reddit and IG, but they don't have blogs

Hello anon, and welcome to ✨Gabi Fan Club✨

From the second I saw her design, I completely swooned (and maybe drooled a little too, but we don’t talk about it🤫) and kept imagining the Frida Kahlo scenario between Gabi and MC, passing down the clown red nose of shame to Suresh lol!

In all seriousness though, I am so sorry you encountered hateful posts and biphobia, and I am not surprised - the Suresh debates can get heated. I think fusebox did us dirty for only giving us Dana as an li (who, let’s be real, wasn’t written great, especially with the kissing Eddie part) and Gabi aka the girl Suresh cheated on MC with. Idk what reaction they were expecting from fans because there’s something problematic with every single character this season, and I’m so sick of fusebox perpetuating these racist and biphobic stereotypes time and time again. So naturally, it sparks further hate and -isms from the players, trying to defend or offend some pixels. I am personally not on a Suresh route, so I don’t really care about that side of drama. I like Gabi and I think she is an interesting character, she has a cool back story, she’s interested in MC, and jee is she hot (sorry for being shallow). I also think it’s weird to shame people for liking a game character. Like, I guess I can understand it if someone’s into Dylan, who is just beyond problematic, and good friends wouldn’t and shouldn’t let you date someone like that. But other than that, my philosophy is that LITG is a game - that’s literally all it is, just a story with some 2d pixel art, and we shouldn’t be taking it so close to heart. If people like Suresh - you do you, if people like Gabi - please, by all means, suit yourself. They’re not real, so we shouldn’t let the hate and bigotry and racism get so out of hand that it hurts real people.

Anyways, this got very long, and idk if any of it is coherent, but in short: we shouldn’t bully people on which characters they like and we shouldn’t let the hate hurt others. What we should do, is criticize fusebox for continuingly villainizing and stereotyping LGBT characters and characters of color, and we should be able to have some fun playing:)

P. S. To people spreading hate and biphobia: check your privilege please. Before posting hateful comments about LGBT characters, ask yourself, why does this reaction come up to me in the first place? Why am I so angry about a wlw route? Who do I see in Gabi? Maybe it’s someone who hurt you before or maybe it’s internalized homophobia speaking? Food for thought. And honesty, if you do have so much hate on your mind, maybe just put your phone down, take a breather, and just.. close out of the post/comment/reply? Your bigoted opinion is not worth the pain it can cause someone.

P. P. S. Also, just wanted to mention as well, there’s definitely a lot of wonderful people on here, who I know would not judge you or anyone for liking Gabi or what have you, and I really hope you stay safe out here because cyberbullying is real, so please, take a step back if hateful posts get too much - always always always put yourself first, lovely!

P. P. P. S. Also also, I haven’t written any Gabi x mc fics and I don’t know if there are any, but you can definitely check out @litgwritersroom - they’re a bunch of wonderful, talented, creative lovelies that are very open and accepting of every player. I’m not sure if their asks are open currently, but they do take fanfic requests!;)

Rating ATLA Characters literally only from what I’ve seen in fandom

or: posts that probably shouldn’t be on my writeblr except I don’t have a sideblog

the context here is it’s half midnight and I have never seen ATLA except I have opinions now apparently so here we go whoop de do- 

I’m also not actually rating them like numerically that’s too much work i’m just stating opinions I know I’m a fraud

AANG

- A child?  - A son?  - he is Baby. but also. he has had It Rough  - would make the updog joke - has unspeakable power or smth and everyone says he’s better than the Korra girl who comes after him but honestly tastes like sexism to me - doesn’t kill people because he’s like twelve, right? he’s like twelve so he refuses to kill people - I stan honestly - less twelve year olds should kill people - Some people say his name WRONG and they are BAD but i don’t actually know what the right way or the wrong way is so. have fun w that yall - lived in peace unTIL THE FIRE NATION ATTACKED 

KATARA

- She is also like twelve???  - Is everyone here twelve - Cortana?? Katana?? Catbug??  - She has good hair, - Her mother is dead??? her mother is dead n she has a brother but she cares about her mother being dead WAY more than him (or apparently the entire fandom??) - Badass - She seems soft. good. sweet - she’s a water breather or whatever??? her brother is NOT but he is a meme - I love her 

SOKKA

- NGL looks like a fuckboy  - The meme brother! does not do the water things, but he has an aXe???  - dates BAMF lady - ngl until I talked to my ATLA watching friend I thought he canonically dated Zuko  - kinda mad he doesn’t - I haven’t actually seen anything about him except like. in zuko ship posts and also Suki appreciation posts - joined the white lotus not-a-cult by accident???  - dark ATLA tumblr show me more Sokka posts - is his name prounounced the same way as Soccer or isn’t it I need to know - HIS FIRST GIRLFRIEND TURNED INTO THE MOON - (AND THAT’S ROUGH, BUDDY) - He and Suki are a good ship, but also, Sokka Has Two Hands

SUKI

- the BAMF herself - she says STOP in that photo but also to sexism - Rlly all I see of her in fanon is abt her teaching Sokka to drink his respect women juice and I appreciate her doing that but also it’s sad she never gets talked about outside of what she did for a man - I hope she has other badass moments w/o him it would suck if she didn’t - she is NOT the girlfriend who turned into the moon, she is the one who didn’t - I don’t know much else about her ATLA Fandom y’all should appreciate her more

ZUKO

- Look at him... my son... - He has a good redemption arc - he and his sister are evil lesbian and redeemed gay guy??? - has a straight canon ship but should’ve been with Sokka this boy is gay - I Want To Protect Him - That’s literally it - he has a cool uncle and his dad sucks  - people ship him with Katara and I Do Not Get It that’s his sister in law except not really - “We don’t trust Zuko’s change of heart” [the next day] “so Zuko is my closest friend now,”  - His dad was like “fuck up the avatar to prove your worth to me” and Aang was like “counter argument you already have worth and we should fuck up your dad” and I think that’s beautiful - he becomes the fire man and he’s very good at it - Zuko for President 2020 - in the words of myself, half an hour ago: “ I was like "that kid with the burn on his face seems like a sad but then happy mlm who needs found family" and I was RIGHT” - took too long to find a happy picture of him :( Zuko rights NOW please - His mother’s story got compared to an OC of mine and all I can say is oh no and they deserve better based on that alone - I have had Zuko for five minutes but if anything else happens to him I will kill everyone in this throne room and then myself

TOPH

- She is badass but like also will murder you while laughing maniacally? - for some reason reminds me of Nott from Critical Role, another show I Have Not Seen - Is blind but gets more out of making jokes abt being blind than she would from being able to see - “Sight is just a cheap tactic to make weak benders stronger!!!” - Literally the opposite of Aang and has killed many people?? - She Can Tell When You’re Lying. But I do not know how and Am simply mildly threatened by this - Therapist: Toph’s ability to know if you’re lying isn’t real and can’t hurt you. Toph’s ability to know if I’m lying:  - She and Zuko.... buddies???  - if not they should be - tiny sad boy needs friends like toph

AZULA

- Evil Lesbian Culture - [BDG Voice] You committed a war crime! Oopsie! - took be gay do crime too literally - her and Zuko have accurate sibling writin except instead of “you ever want to murder your sibling for breathing in the same space as you,” being a Joke Azula took it seriously - okay but with a name like azula she should be the blue bender this ANNOYS me she should NOT be red bender - AZULa  - AZUL - IT MEANS BLUE - She was half of y’alls gay awakenings and it SHOWS - Should have maybe been redeemed too??? Jury is out no one knows - Was she gay for Ty Lee or wasn’t she I can’t tell how much of that Audio is a joke - IS SHE ALSO TWELVE??? IS EVERYONE HERE TWELVE?? IS THIS TWELVE YEAR OLD COMITTING ATROCITIES? 

UNCLE IROH

- A Good Man - Finally, Some Good Fucking [Adult Figures]  - he has the tea. literally and figuratively - Ozai is like “and I will permanently disfigure my son and throw him out” and Iroh is like “What The Fuck, Ozai,” thus voicing the entire audience’s thoughts - Literally the only adult in this that I trust - I? I love him. this is all I have to say. my love for him is unending. Some1 protect this man from all harm   - he’s Zuko’s uncle (and also Azula ig) but he does not seem related to Ozai. is it just a theme in this family that one sibling is chill and one sibling commits horrendous atrocities against your fellow human beings or  - something happened to his son???? :((((( I Don’t Want Him To Have Suffered Like This

OZAI

- A BAD MAN - Uh Oh (stinky)  - THE WORST OF THE MEN  - I do not like him - Bastard man. nasty. committed war crimes and then went “but what if - get this - i also abused my son,”  - I would like him to Not Be Like This - by Like This I mean present and alive  - :/ 

TY LEE

- She’s NOT the There Is No War In Ba Sing Se lady and I don’t know why i thought she WAS but until I looked up her photo I thought that was her  - She looks like a sweetheart tho - I hope nothing bad happens to her????  - talks about auras??? or smth??? let her vibe - She would talk animatedly to me about warrior cats if she was in my year seven class and I was sat alone and I would understand none of it but appreciate her anyway - if azula bullies her I’ll be :( at Azula and Azula will not care because she has Mommy Issues and therefore is slightly unhinged - She seems like that one kid with no trauma vibing at the edge of [every other kid having trauma] and not really getting it but trying her best - Is she also twelve?????? She maybe looks twelve

CABBAGE MAN 

- HIS CABBAGES - fulfills my favourite trope: ordinary person repeatedly has life disrupted by the inconveniences of relying on actual children to save the world - probably has a campaign post canon for letting trained adults fix the worlds’ problems in the future - or sets up the Very First Cabbage Insurance Company - look at him. he loves his cabbages so much. you go you funky lil cabbage man

ALSO THE MOST IMPORTANT ONES MOMO

- LOOK AT HIM HE’S SO GOOD - small. fluffy. big ears - Lord Momo of the Momo Dynasty: his Momoness - a Good Boy...

APPA

- he looks so soft... - he can fly but he just does it by??? vibing through the air?? motionless??? iconic - I saw that one post about mishearing it as Abba and thinking he was Aang’s dad and he looks like he would be a good stand in dad ngl - he’s so LORGE - a chonky boy - love him

that is everyone I have heard of it and if I left someone out it’s a sign that y’all should talk about em more bc I have no clue they exist put more ATLA On my Dash ig I’ll do Legend of Korra ig maybe apparently that one has canon wlw and i love me some canon wlw

[saintobio]

man thank you so much for the new chapter! I was shaking throughout it the whole time seriously and I need to vent about this topic a little.

the thought of gojohime feels so wrong. the fact that that is your best friend's ex with whom she has a child with? going after that? the fact that that is your ex whom you got a son with's best friend? going after her? it's so fucking wrong. I really can't stomach the thought because I got experience with it (yup 😒) and because I think the best way for Satoru and YN to heal is to never have anything to do with each other at all except their son. if Utahime was a character that was completely separated from all the others, as in no connection to anyone, then I would have been fine with it. but since she's so intertwined with YN I find it so wrong for her to be with Gojo. it really leaves me with such a terrible taste in my mouth. reminds me of too many bad things :( but I respect your decision of course, I just wanted to get this off my chest a little ♥️ thank you for the chapter !

I get why people are more critical of utahime and gojo then toji and yn.

Utahime and yn are friends and business partners.

Gojo and toji are business rivals.

Gojohime feels like a double betrayal because of the friendship and and it being a gojo x yn fic and you know what i fucking hate gojo and yn together but yn went through so much shit because of gojo that it would be a loss if gojo and yn aren't together.

What's better or worse? To take back the ex that insulted and cheated on you or have that ex move on making you feel like stepping stone for them to be a better person.

Utahime should maybe thank yn if gojohime is endgame that gojo used yn as a training dummy to be a better partner for her.🤣

maybe it’s petty, but i hope gojohime isn’t endgame. like, after watching euphoria w the whole maddy cassie nate situation, i just can’t stomach the idea of dating a friend’s ex, especially one who didn’t treat them right. i’m glad that utahime can be there for him as a friend which he totally needs, but like… she’s y/n’s friend? it’s so heartbreaking to see how y/n basically has nobody (except Ian and Sachi) on her side and supporting her through her decisions. i’m contrast to gojo, she has so many people telling her that her feelings and actions are ridiculous and invalid. i normally like gen, but her talking to y/n like that this chapter was so unnecessary. ig she’s more of the confrontational than understanding type. as far as endgame for y/n i really don’t care who she ends up with, as long as she and sachi can finally find some sort of peace and happiness. that’s all i want for them. anyway this was a great chapter, and please don’t ever feel rushed to make new chapters, we’ll be here either way. take care saint!!

hi saint! i hope you’re doing well, sy6 was amazing, and as much as i thought i would be super jealous about utahime’s friendship (or whatever it will become😟) with satoru (which i am a tiny bit cause wtf hime) i just feel like not being jealous about it will soothe the pain as the rest of the chapters come out :,) it’s kind of giving cassie calming herself down in the bathroom after crying and faking a smile in the mirror in s2… lol

hopefully utahime won’t be in her cassie era tho. i just can’t trust her after seeing u say that sy7 will break hearts ahhh. also i’m not ashamed to admit i also believe in gojoxyn endgame supremacy (even tho it’s not looking so good rn) but if we’re being realistic relationships love and marriage take time and as much as yn and satoru keep hurting each other; they just can’t seem to truly leave each other alone, even if it’s just coincidence that they are just always in each other’s vicinity, or at least that’s what i think and i could also be completely wrong, and the reason for that is simply just sachiro. but i also do love the angst i just have no idea if i will be ready for it

it also hurts seeing that document that satoru wrote… i feel like when he remembered that scene, he completely forgot about everything else and didn’t really think about the reasoning for why yn would hide sachi. and i’ll admit when you look at the situation especially after the way satoru worded it “she made me think my child was dead” it is a little wrong but i love my girl yn and i’m standing with her 😩

one last thing, i also can see that yn truly doesn’t want to be alone, everyone is making her out to seem the bad person bc of her mistakes but nobody wants to listen to her and i was rly hoping toji would this time around but i like that toji and gen are the two people who keep it totally real with her, it just hurts cause i love toji sm sigh

don’t think it’s necessary for me to speak more bc you guys are already good at writing down ur thoughts about certain situations/dynamics in the fic!! based on the sentiments abt gjhm, i’m just happy that i’m getting the reaction i wanted sdjsjs i guess people wouldn’t feel strongly about it if she wasn’t yn’s best friend, but she is, and that’s why it’s a heart wrenching sight for readers to see :)))

Can I request a taeyang comfort scenario? I’ve been having a real tough week, my anxiety has been quite bad huhu

1.2k Words

Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

" Really Y/N this isn't that difficult. You should know this. It's fine. Just do better next time. "

Do better. Next time. How many next times. Closing their eyes, Y/N took in a shaky breath, absorbing the words that were said to them. Blinking the tears away, Y/N slowly began to pack their stuff to go home. To say that this was probably one of the worst weeks of their life, would be right. Work hadn't been going really well. Neither was their mental health.

Every single minor thing that happened only seemed to make their anxious state worse. They weren't able to eat or sleep properly, barely having energy most days to get up in the morning. And to do work in such a state of mind is so tiring. Feeling overwhelmed, not up to the mark, doing things they're supposed to be good at really badly, didn't help either.

Getting on the bus, Y/N started to make their way home. After days of waiting, finally, hopefully, Y/N can find peace in their boyfriend's embrace. He was busy with Kingdom, Y/N knows it's important so they didn't disturb Taeyang with their problems. But how long can they hide their problems from the one they love.

Even when he was stressed, Taeyang always provided comfort and hope to others. That happens when you are in touch with your emotions I guess. He's always been their rock. Keeping them grounded, in touch with reality, not letting them slip away into the prison in their mind. The physical distance that just happened due to packed schedules and improper planning made the lovers miss each other even when they lived in the same home.

It's around 8:10pm. He won't be home yet. Sniffing Y/N enters their shared home. Taeyang froze. Sniffing? Crying? His baby? His light? Turning the stove off, he slowly walked out to the front door, where Y/N was crouched down on the ground, crying from feeling so many emotions at once. Looking at his curled lover on the floor, Taeyang's heart ached. Were they really going through so much pain alone? Why didn't they tell him what was going on?

Kneeling down, Tae gently touched their hair, patting it softly, kissing their hair once. Lifting their head, Y/N looked at Tae, with tear filled glossy eyes. He was here. He's here. Staring at him, Y/N couldn't help but let all their defences down, letting all their tears fall, allowing themselves to be so vulnerable to him. Tae hugged Y/N's shaky figure, trying his best not to cry too. Petting their head, Taeyang slowly helped them get on their feet, romoving their coat and bag.

Fully embracing their body in his arms, Taeyang nuzzled his face into them, silently telling them, " It's okay. I got you. I'm here now. You can let all your emotions out to me. On me. I'll take care of you. "

Hugging him tighter, Y/N cried and cried till there were no tears in their eyes, body visibly shaking from the pain they had felt and endured alone for the past week. Softly playing his chin on their head, Tae started to hum a faint tune. An action that always calmed Y/N. Rubbing her shoulders, Taeyang pulls away, just enough to look Y/N in the eyes, puffy, red, pain filled eyes. Placing a delicate kiss on their head, Taeyang cradled his lover's face in his palms.

" What happened? Do you want to talk about it? " Shaking their head no, Y/N looked down, feeling tears approaching the brim of their eyes again. Moving their face to his chest, Tae pecked their head again.

" Did you eat something today? Did you drink water? " Y/N hesitated to answer. The truth is, they didn't really know of what they ate would be classified as a meal. But Taeyang knew. He wasn't disappointed. He understood. He always does. Lifting their head from his chest, he kissed the tip of their nose and brought them to the kitchen.

Making them sit on the counter, Taeyang went to the fridge to get a water bottle and some cut apple slices. Opening the bottle, he made them drink water, like a parent does to their child. " Do you want to eat? " He questions, not wanting to make things worse by forcing them to eat right now.

" Not really. " They replied with a small voice. Nodding his head, Taeyang hugs Y/N again.

" I know I haven't been around much this week. Especially for you. And I know that you understand. But next time, please tell me when it gets too much. I love you. I can always make time for you in my schedule. You are the most important thing to me. You never have to go through this alone. Not when I'm here. I love you too much to see you in pain baby. "

Gripping his shirt, Y/N breathes into his neck, calming down listening to his soft voice and reassuring words.

" You are so brave. I'm proud of you. I don't know how you manage to endure so much for so long. But please. You don't ever have to go through this alone again. Tell me what's going on. Talk to me. About everything. I am here for you at any time or any and every day. "

Moving their head up and down they pull away looking at their beautiful boyfriend. His pretty face, perfect nose, soft parted lips, his freshly washed hair, his love filled concerned eyes. He's here. He will always be here. He is your rock. He grounds you. Noticing their breathing has come back to normal, Taeyang lifts them off the kitchen counter. Grabbing their hand, he leads them to their bedroom, making them sit on the bed as he goes to the closet to find them comfortable clothes to wear.

Getting them a pair of shorts and one of his shirts, he helps them out of their outside clothing and into the ones he picked out. Taking them slowly to the washroom, he undoes their hair and wipes their face with a wet towel. All while smiling at them. Once he's done, he pinches the Apple of their cheeks lovingly before taking them to bed, tucking them in.

" Sleep for some time. I'll finish making dinner and wake you up. Okay? " He says, not expecting an answer. Leaning down towards their face, Tae places small kisses all over. Kissing their forehead, eyebrows, fluttering eyelids, the sides of their face, their nose, cheeks and finally a sweet kiss on their lips. Stroking their temple with his thumb he stay in that position for a while, till his lover is asleep.

Life can get hard sometimes. Hard enough to not be able to wake up or do the minimal necessary things. But that's okay. It doesn't make you any less worthy of anything. But pain is temporary. Fear is temporary. And feeling overwhelmed is normal. It's human. You are human. But you also have the strength to get through difficult times. You've done it before, you can do it again, no matter how hard it gets. That's what it is to be human right?

Deconstructing baseless Harry Potter arguments #1: Harmony Edition

There’s a very helpful account on instagram (this instagram page merely gathers toxic harmony shippers, they don’t ship Harmione or hate all Harmione shippers, please don’t send them hate, show them love and support) where you can essentially find stupid fucking bashers who make baseless arguments. I’m all for Harmione shippers, as long as they don’t denounce Romione, bash Ron and just peacefully co-exist. To my pleasure, such people are out there: they just dont seem to be seen as often as the ones that are not nice. Maybe all I see is the mean people and the majority is nice, but in this post, I am attacking those who make baseless claims and bash Ron/Romione/Hinny/Ginny. I don’t myself hate all Harmione shippers. On top of that, as a Romione/Ron fan, i do acknowledge Ron’s character flaws along with Hermione’s and I hold them on the same pedestal.

This is copied directly from my own instagram page, granger.weasley_ on ig.

Anyways let's get deconstructing

1)

rebuttal:

Yeah okay mf; maybe don’t compare real-life relationships with fucking fictional ones. Your relationship going wrong has nothing to do with Ron/Hermione. It has everything to do with you and your ex: the *real life* people involved in it.

2)

rebuttal:

The weird subreddits and discord servers also seem to have a lot of die-hard Harmione “non-canon” shippers. They bash Ron and Romione (along with Ginny and Hinny) with a burning passion without any objective sense of remorse. They ignore all the merits of Ron’s character and bash him to push their agenda. They can’t even do so much as fucking acknowledge any of Hermione’s character flaws but still somehow manage to fixate on that one time when 11 year old Ron just shit-talked one line while Hermione had just publicly humiliated him in front of the Charms class and practically shouted at him for doing the spell wrong just before. I personally don’t because Hermione was 11 too and wasn’t that good at social cues that early on, which is more than okay. Neither am I.

Only a few people in the Romione fandom bash Hermione. And it’s not like Harmione shippers (most, not all!) don’t bash Ron and Ginny remorselessly, right? The fucking hypocrisy.

If someone considers Ron as the best member of the trio, it is their own opinion and not a fact. I do that. If you consider Harry and Hermione as the best member of the trio or in the whole wizarding world, most people don’t give a flying fuck and probably won’t argue with you because it is simply an opinion. That will only happen when you pass that off as a fact.

Statistically speaking, most (not FUCKING all) Harmione moments are in the movies. The weird dance scene especially. The passionate kiss that happens in Ron’s vision, shit like that. Ron is pushed to the sidelines in the last set of movies while Harry and Hermione show each other endless love and support. “I’ll go with you”. The books on the other hand, describe Harry and Hermione as siblings multiple times, with very little Harmione references.

3)

rebuttal:

So you don't want us to fixate on the large majority of Harmione shippers who do the exact same thing, just kissing Hermione's and Harry's ass and hating on Ron. However you will fixate on people who are most likely not EVEN bashing or hating but pointing out a few character flaws in Hermione in a fair and unbiased way. I would know, I'm a huge fan of Hermione as an individual character (in the books). The only criticism I've seen of Hermione to this day has not been bashing. In the comment section of my own fics (shameless plug) I've seen some Hermione bashing. On an ao3 comment section. And I've seen so damn fucking many people bashing Ron, Ginny, the Weasleys etc. and garner tens and thousands of upvotes on quora.

What does Ron even need excusing for? The running away incident and Krum. What does Hermione need excusing for? Canaries, contributing to Ron's insecurities by making him jealous through Cormac and Krum even though she didn't even like them (especially not Cormac, she fucking hated him). Ron wore a locket that literally highlighted his fatal flaw (insecurity) in an echo chamber. Harry kept getting annoyed when Ron wanted to check in on his family. Harry asked Ron to leave; Ron didn't say that shit in the books about Harry's parents being dead: that was plain shock value.

And sorry for repeating myself but I have seen quite a few Harmione shippers bash Ron and Ginny and excuse every single thing Harry and Hermione have done.

4)

37 upvotes on this weird comment that makes no sense? Echo chamber alert! You know what us Romione/Ron fans all have in common? We have never experienced such an echo chamber. I made a pro Ron/Romione post on reddit and got a considerable amount of people who bashed Ron and Romione in the comments.

The amount of Hermione haters is very few compared to Ron bashers. Nobody hates Hermione for being independent, determined, etc. We dislike perfect movie Hermione who’s an unrealistic image of females and seems like some sort of agenda than a real woman. Most Romione shippers/Ron fans and book fans in general (except for you apparently) dislike movie Hermione and still are fans of realistic book Hermione. Most, not all. In general, we do not claim anyone who does the exact same thing to Harry and Hermione that these sorts of Harmione shippers do to Ron, Romione, Hinny and Ginny. I say this on the behalf of all Romione shippers and Ron fans.

Ron's not a bitchy lay-about drama causing loser. That's Steve Kloves's movie Ron. In the books Ron is realistic and simplistic and apologizes whenever he causes problems. He acts up substantially twice in a span of 7 years where he is also a hormone-fuelled teenager.

This is so contradictory and juxtaposed to the point of near delusion. First you talk about how Romione shippers bash Hermione and then you bash Ron as a Harmione shipper. Mate, fighting fire with fire will get you called a hypocrite. Fix yourself.

5)

So the movies are fine when they work according to your agenda? And yes how dare he add such a (fake) chemistry fuelled moment between Harry and Hermione while defeating the entire purpose and groundwork for Romione, the sadness caused by Ron leaving and so many more things? Those Harmione moments you mention seem friendship -esque more than anything else.

Steve Kloves's moments ruined many things while just paying fan service to the Harmione fans he'd birthed through years in the course of 6 movies where he showed Ron as a, how you so eloquently describe it, lay - about drama causing bitchy loser, Harry as one dimensional and Hermione as a zero - dimensional Mary Sue who might as well be the main titular character. Obviously Harmione fans such as yourself don't see the problem with it as it fits your narrative

6)

We do care about Harry and Hermione at large. Most Romione shippers rightfully bash Draco, Pansy, etc. not particularly Harry and Hermione, that's quite rare. Harry and Hermione can get along without Ron as friends. Ron and Harry can also get along without. Hermione as friend. So can Hermione and Ron without Harry as friends or more. I don't understand your point and how what you said is any different than Romione or Ronarry’s friendship.

7)

Constant arguing is not what they do. They bicker, they apologize, and sometimes they just do it for the heck of it. They are argumentative teenager. Opposites attract doesn't work in the sense of fire and ice, it works in the case of Brownie and ice-cream. Ron is passionate, laid back and insecure. Hermione's passionate, a workaholic and not as insecure. Ron can help her get calm and composed and get her to give herself a break. Hermione can motivate Ron and re - enforce his confidence.

It wouldn't be step incest. Harry and Ginny do not regard each other as siblings. They do not look similar whatsoever. And a Harmione shipper also bashes Hinny and Ginny along with Ron and Romione? Checks out

" that fucked up Harmony" hahaha. What?

8)

Are you literally going to date someone on the basis of what Harry Potter ships they prefer? That is so shallow end depraved. Your Harry Potter ship preferences should not be the groundwork for your dating life. Please understand that. Harry Potter is a fictional world which is not real. Hogwarts doesn't exist. Magic doesn't exist. I sound like a Dursley but that's what it is: a fictional realm with fictional character. I would personally not give a fuck if my best friend or significant other was a Harmione shipper. In the case of them being a Ron basher, I would ignore it as if it was just a minor inconvenience and something we wouldn't be discussing and that's how it should be with you. Fuck BuzzFeed, your opinion on what Harry Potter ship / character is your favorite says squat about your personality and relationship with others in a romantic or platonic context. But who cares? Live your life however you want. I'll be stoic.

9)

It's not opposites attract rubbish or high school opposites attract. Ron and Hermione aren't polar opposites like I said, they are a bit different but similar too in many ways. They have a lot more in common than Harry and Hermione. Ron and Harry have the most in common. Both Ron and Hermione are passionate, loving, argumentative, caring, etc. Your argument lacks substance. It's biased trash. And what does “obhwf " mean?

---------------------------------

at the end of the day, i’m just an annoyed teenager. I try my best to be open-minded to people but only as long as they are too. I tried to use my brain more than my feelings for this post.

so planned parenthood put out a statement about roe v wade being overturned and dozens upon dozens of celebrities who are supporting were listed including kendall jenner, phoebe bridgers, paul mescal, selena gomez, madison beer, olivia rodrigo, joey king, dylan obrien, mistki, ariana grande, billie eilish, demi lovato, hailey bieber, miley cyrus, madelyn cline, shawn mendes, wallows… LITERALLY ANYONE YOU CAN IMAGINE. name them and they’re on there. not just a-list celebs but d-list and c-list as well. of course not everyone is on there which is understandable. gotta remember there are people actually work. lol.

but since olivia cockburn is so girlboss, feminist��� why isn’t her name on there? if anything, i expected her name to be on there… has she even made an effort besides her little ig stories? she made max. 10 ig stories about it like the women’s activist she believes she is but why not engage in these organizations like these other celebrities (who are far busier with ACTUAL work? juggling multiple projects at a time i mean billie??? ariana??? olivia fucking rodrigo??? madelyn cline who is literally filming a whole tv show right now??? are on there lol ????)

it’s just so odd to see her skipping around europe with (pr stunt or not) boyfriend and seeing her blatantly ignoring this situation that most definitely affects her lol. unless she thinks her skin color protects her from old white men wanting to control a woman’s body… and that boyfriend who we all know and love - also does the bare fucking minimum. and yeah im calling him out too. harries ate up that single post he made and think he’s doing more than what actual activists are doing.

and no he’s not “working on the promo of his new album.” he’s galloping around rome and italy with another incompetent human being who is equally ignoring this situation bc again i believe it’s their white [celebrity] privilege that lets them parade around carelessly.

if he was working then we wouldn’t be seeing him at all, huh? if she was working, maybe we’d actually know who she was before this stunt.

and no i’m not asking him to drop everything and give a national speech but consider this 1. olivia, ur harry styles’ “girlfriend”, right? that’s a thing on it’s own babe lol remember camille rowe? yeah. 2. harry, ur fucking harry styles. open ur mouth. i know u said u left school at a young age but critical thinking skills?? do better with the voice you have. your fan base are 95% women who will suffer from this issue and 100% listen to what you have to say.

harry styles [and olivia wilde] is not the type of person we should be supporting imo. i don’t support him as i did before but ofc still care about him and love him (although i’ve unfollowed him, pleasing and anyone related + disconnected from him completely besides tumblr bc im on here 24/7, and pretty hard to scrub him clean lol)

but to each their own! i hope to know yalls thoughts lol if you wanna share ofc.

I got this last night. sorry I'm just getting around to posting it now :) also thanks for the disclaimer!

I hate to say it but I agree, specifically about Harry. I suppose it's an interesting issue though since this is mainly a US thing with Roe v Wade possibly getting overturned and Harry isn't a citizen. I already criticized him for sponsoring Biden. But this is slightly different. All he posted was the same thing Pauli did (I also did as well). I appreciated that. But I agree there's room for more.

Not to compare, but take 5SOS for example. They posted today about pro-choice rallies across the US. One was happening right up the road from me and because of them I was able to stop by for a little bit. Now imagine if someone who has 43 million instagram followers posted that info.

Harry doesn't have to say anything. But he'd have a lot of power if he did. I think his fans give him too much credit in places where it's not applicable.

Olivia's a different story. I don't care much to talk about her. She's a lost cause imo and not worth my breath

Olivia is a fake feminist who is more concerned with fame, money, and attention than she is with anything else. She also was raised with wealth and privilege so she knows nothing of the problems that people outside of her socioeconomic background face. Moreover, I don’t think she cares.

Harry has never really taken a major stance on anything and will just do an obligatory post or statement. I don’t think he doesn’t care but he’s just not putting himself out there for any particular cause. That’s pretty much his approach to everything…be ambiguous enough that there’s something for everyone.

Personally, I don’t care, though. I’ve never been particularly interested about what celebrities think about politics or current events. Even if I like them. They are celebrities so they really have no idea what life is like for regular people and how certain issues affect our lives. So, in my opinion, their opinions are pretty much meaningless.

Anyone else have thoughts they’d like to share?

hi !

i’m a relatively new f1 fan and was wondering if you could give a quick run down on problematic/stupid things the drivers have done or could direct me to somewhere i could find out? (i only rlly know about mazepin) it would be really useful :) thank u have a lovely day mwah <3

First off, hi! Welcome to the sport <3

Please note that I have a memory of a goldfish and I don't remember everything that happened. So feel free to add more, correct me, etc.

The rest is under the cut because it's quite long.

Starting with Lewis, there was a lot of controversy after he said to his nephew that boys shouldn't wear dresses, which many people saw as transphobic or at least inappropriate. He apologized for it and later he wore a skirt for GQ. There were also smaller controversies, such as him being investigated by New Zealand police after recording himself while driving a Harley (which, from what I understand, is a criminal offence), or was called out by PETA for playing with tamed tigers. He wasn't a saint, but he went though an amazing personal growth and now he's the biggest human and animal rights activist in F1.

The only fuss related to Checo I can remember is him being accused of severe sexism. When Susie Wolff was driving for Williams, he was asked if he'd like to have a female teammate, and his answer was that women should stay in the kitchen. After a wave of criticism, Sergio apologized and said the whole situation was just an unfortunate joke, and Susie herself laughed it off.

Lando Norris. sigh He's a streamer on Twitch, and during his streams he made many misogynistic comments objectifying women. As far as I'm aware, he didn't address accusations of his sexism. He also never missed an opportunity to belittle Hamilton's achievements and undermine his skills (generally he's known for speaking first and thinking later :/)

The biggest Leclerc controversy I can think of his his film from a zoo in Dubai. He was accused of approving animal cruelty and a reckless approach towards the pandemic (he wasn't wearing a mask in public and tested positive for covid later).

Daniel Ricciardo? He was running around LA without a mask during one of the biggest covid outbreaks. I don't know if there's more.

Valtteri Bottas shared an ig story containing a picture of a sign with a swastika on it and made a racist bat joke about Wuhan, after which Mercedes needed to release a formal apology.

A company owned by Sainz's father released a commercial containing blackface (unclear if his son himself has anything to do with it), and Carlos himself made a racist joke about Chinese restaurants.

The list of this year's non-kneelers: Leclerc, Raikkonen, Verstappen, Giovinazzi, Perez, Mazepin, Tsunoda, Ocon, Bottas, Sainz, Alonso.

Kimi Raikkonen is a really nice fella who put an iron cross on his custom merch, which was a neo-nazi Jesse James. Iron Cross is considered a hate symbol and adding my personal opinion, I think it was very insensitive (lightly worded) to show up in the paddock with a symbol used by Luftwaffe, knowing that one of your co-workers (Lance Stroll) is Jewish.

The last but not least, Max Verstappen said slurs on the radio. He refused to apologize for it, even after a formal complaint from the Mongolian government.

Also remember that the bigger the name, the bigger the controversy. So I'd be very careful with painting drivers who didn't have much as saints.

Have a lovely day as well, mwah right back at you! <3 And sorry for the quite late response :3

I have an opinion - I think the only two things mason ever did wrong were the Miami incident and the “being blind”/not caring about being with a blackfisher. And to be completely honest, those were pretty awful in my eyes. However, all of the rest seems so overreacted to me. It doesn’t cancel out the fact that those two ever happened, but I dont like that he’s constantly being attacked over the most minimal stuff either lol for instance, he could start following a girl on insta or drop a like on some random girl’s post and tumblr would attack him in SECONDS and say he’s cringe or even batter him for even leaving his house or something like that. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for calling him out if he’s ever in the wrong, but most of the time his fanbase is all over him for things he’s not wrong for. At all.

About the comment he left on girlie’s post the other day, most people said they didn’t understand what he meant by it (I don’t think I did either), so how would it ever make sense to criticize him for it? And call him cringe over it? It could be something only they understand. We know damn well that if he ever left a comment like that on a lowkey serious girl’s ig post then they wouldn’t call him that. Why are we jumping to conclusions so quickly and why is it ok to criticize him for every single breath he dares to take ☠️ I’m not trying to attack you at all, specially since you’re my favourite blog and you haven’t acted like that to my knowledge. I also agree with all your posts and opinions - it’s just I think it’s a bit unfair towards him that people jump on him and attack him WHEN it actually isn’t something wrong he did. This doesn’t mean I condone every single thing he’s done before, but a loooot of it just doesn’t have anything wrong to it and he still gets battered for it. Make it make sense, what a toxic fandom he unfortunately has

oh my god you are literally speaking my mind, that’s to be honest exactly what i thought. i mean yeah, if we count her as a “doing wrong” then i definitely have to mention j*yden too because that guy is just— a big no. but overall i really couldn’t agree more, personally, and i’m certainly not talking about everybody but i feel like some are jealous (which i’m too not gonna lie so there’s no wrong about that imo) and make drama out of everything because of that. i mean i bullied him too bc of the comment but true, we don’t know what he meant or if he was even attempting to flirt so why judge about it so much. like i said i made fun of it too, but i think doing it to that point where it gets disrespectful is just too much, like some of the comments under his comment. and i fully understand why he’d delete the comment bc of it and stuff. but yeah i fear this is how every hot man’s fanbase looks like and it’s pissing me off 🧍🏻‍♀️
