#can we all kill ourselves

[jinprint]

interacted with star wars content on twt like twice so now i'm getting more posts abt the acolyte on my feed over there and i need to say that it is a CESSPOOL rn like why are white people throwing slurs left and right ????

someone said they felt bad about the acolyte being cancelled and another guy replied "it sucked, fuck you" and someone ELSE said "well you don't need to be hostile about it we can all have different opinions" and they came back to say "EAT SHIT t****y!"

INSANE ??? helloooo ? THESE are the people that the franchise is choosing to pander to ?? just kill me.

ok let me explain something- if you aren't 'naturally skinny'* then you objectively cannot stay underweight and lose more weight without a diet that becomes more and more restrictive. the lower a human's weight, the harder it becomes to lose weight, you have to push your body past its limits. if anyone's ~weight loss journey~ is "underweight and loses more weight every week" that's actually called anorexia and it will either kill you or permanently damage your insides. we have reached mainstream body positivity for anorexia and if you call it out you're considered jealous or told you're body shaming skinny people LOL. it's actually the girls supporting eating disorders who are jealous btw. you are fucking seething because you can't commit to that life (which is a good thing actually) so you project your own insecurities onto others ❤️ have a good day

*imo it's debatable whether or not "naturally skinny" is a thing outside specific medical conditions and/or medication influencing weight. I don't know a single "naturally skinny" person that isn't unintentionally in a calorie deficit--you can do this with large meals btw. there's a guy on tiktok who is super underweight and trying to gain weight and if you calorie count the fast food he binges on HE IS STILL IN A CALORIE DEFICIT because weight loss and gain is about calories and not quantity of or nutrients of food. there are a lot of reasons why someone can be in a calorie deficit unknowingly--it can be as simple as they just don't get the same pleasure reaction to food other people do so eating feels more like a chore. some people literally just enjoy food more than others.

I FORGOT TO THROW OUT AFTER THE EPISODE RELEASED NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[dayurno]

this is somewhat of a vent post & something i said i would not do again but has been plaguing me enough that i think getting it out might feel better. so. has anydoggy else been. Baffled and upset by nora sakavic’s refusal to speak on how terribly aftg has treated its characters of color? with the author of the series coming back with a new book and starting up on her online activity again, and questions of what she’d change about aftg bubbling up, it’s particularly glaring to me that we are all playing this very long game of pretend where we ignore how badly the non-white cast has been treated & her lack of thoughts on it

and i understand not wanting to bring up nicky and thea because people pick on her for it. i’m not trying to discredit nora sakavic’s terrible history of getting harrassed online by aftg fans. but i think it is very cynical, and it is very juvenile, and most of all very cruel, that she gets to ignore the very real ways the books have set up these characters to be hated. i think it’s obvious why the characters who get the most hate are the only canonical characters of color, and i think we do not get to treat this like a deliberate decision on the fandom’s part when the books have put these same characters in degrading and embarrassing and terrible positions in the first place. aftg is not a story about nice characters with clean pasts, but there is a very specific nastiness to the only characters of color being a brown man who sexually harasses and later assaults the main character, a black woman whose only scene is her lashing out at her love interest after being ignored for the first two books, and the japanese villain who gets maybe two lines of complexity before he goes back to being a terrible person. the white cast, in comparison, while not at all free from flaws, are never shown to commit mindless evil; all of their actions are ultimately justified. the book goes out of its way to give them concession after concession. we know exactly who to side with, because aftg tells us who these people are. does nicky’s assault ever get addressed in the books? does riko’s reasoning to be the way that he is ever gets more than briefly aluded to? is thea reserved even a shred of humanity or grace in her one scene?

anyway. it’s been years of talking about this and the fandom has been constantly hostile to criticism in this regard, and more recently any criticism at all, and it’s Grating to be on the other side of this discussion. it’s exhausting to know that in ten years we do not get even an acknowledgment besides the author saying she will not answer questions about nicky and thea anymore. it’s upsetting and it’s ugly and i wish no one had to talk about this again, but we do because what i thought was common sense has been washed away by a sudden influx of no-nuance adoration for the trilogy. basically i hope we all explode

aang having a code against killing makes sense because as the last airbender he carries the weight of his entire peoples and culture on his wee shoulders, and that includes respecting and valuing all life. it is core to his being, and him finding a roundabout way to solve the issue of killing ozai makes sense both as an airbender and for the story. we find out later in the kyoshi series that murder literally inhibits your ability to airbend, hence kyoshi and her mother's use of fans! and dont bring your utilitarian "oh we can save more lives by killing one person" into this, because sure that can work for another show but not this one!! it is literally the core thesis of the show! have some media literacy my god

Merlin getting his magic back has affected my disabled heart so profoundly that I must write another meta on magic being a disability parallel.

Say what you will about Martin's writing style (and I've said plenty) but I do think he's got the White Walkers' mythos worked out for a future book and IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO NICE IF THE SHOWRUNNERS HAD DONE 1/100TH OF THAT WORK SETTING THEM UP

Gus: I am mad all over again that there was absolutely zero explanation given as to why/how the Night King operates or how his powers work or why he chose now to attack or ANYTHING ELSE

Gus: on the plus side it means I get to make up a whole subplot that, not to brag, I'm comfortable saying is at least as good as anything D&D could've made up IF THEY HAD EVER EVEN BOTHERED

Gus: but like - okay so craster's infant sons get sacrificed to the Night King, who them magics them into White Walkers as babies

Mardia: Yep yep

Gus: so does that mean there's a white walker nursery

Mardia: Omg

Gus: do they have to change diapers

Mardia: LOOOOOOOL

Gus: is there a white walker daycare center

Gus: how does the night king TEACH his lil adopted monster babies

Gus: is there like storytime around the - well not fire

Gus: does the Night King remember what it was like to sit around a fire?

Gus: does he miss being a human and all his rage at the spell the Children of the Forest put on him to kill the First Men has curdled his brain?

Gus: what was he DOING for like 8 millennia, just hanging out?

Gus: did he get really good at ice fishing?

Gus: DO THEY EAT?

Gus: where the fuck do they get their snazzy outfits from

Gus: are there white walker tailors

Gus: what's the currency situation

Mardia: Lololololololol

Gus: I'M JUST SAYING

“How did AA girlies not realize ascending him would turn him into an asshole”

Oh come on, like we weren’t ALL enabling Astarion’s shitty behavior on our first playthroughs just to get that intoxicating “Astarion Approves” (which literally DOES lead to him confessing his love to you and going all soft in act 2). Get off your high horse, we’ve all committed atrocities for the evil vampire guy.
