i’ve been loving watching critical role recently if for no other reason than because i get to watch a decent portion of viewers actively falling for cult tactics lmao

a forbes article describes cult tactics as when cult leaders “censor dissenting viewpoints, promote a distorted narrative and use relentless repetition and peer pressure”

ludinus needing to monologue at everyone he meets. cherry picking what information to let people know (ie the orb). showing popular world leaders (gods?) at their absolute worst as a means to win over the vulnerable. creating dissent between cult prospects and the people who they’re close to outside the cult. doesn’t take no for an answer. repeating his points over and over, in whatever context he thinks will be most persuasive. targeting people who’ve lost everything. convincing people that they’re special

matt is a genius.

[ID: A digital illustration of Caduceus Clay and Beauregard Lionett from Critical Role. They're stood next to each other, Beau pointing at Caduceus with her thumb while they both look at someone out of frame. Beauregard says "Dude, he said 'shit' earlier" and Caduceus smiles and says "Yeah". End description.]

No, actually. It is not “shaming Katara’s femininity” or her “maternal traits” to critique the ways in which her character was relegated to a the passive role of the Avatar’s grieving widow and largely ignored by the narrative post-ATLA. Oh my god, we are not “degrading” Katara by pointing out the sexist implications of how her character was handled and to suggest such a thing is just so…infuriating and very revealing of the underlying sexism in the fandom.

No thoughts, just people endlessly glorifying Katara’s maternal tendencies without bothering to question or investigate the adverse effects of her parentification. Apparently anyone who criticizes the writing of Katara’s character is just denigrating “traditional femininity” and THEY are the true misogynists! Not the male writers or viewers who consistently minimize Katara’s significance to the narrative and mock fans who ship her with anyone other than Aang.

Not at all, really we should just accept the conditions of the narrative uncritically and never question the biases of the creators. How dare we criticize them and point out the underlying sexism in their writing?

Modern AU Shen Yuan blushing bright red and avoiding eye contact while trying to hide half of his face with one hand. His other hand is holding a leash that's connected to a dainty collar being worn by an insufferably smug Luo Binghe.

testing is like the premium exclusive version of friday practice: long hours of vroom vrooming, minimal, practically non-existent stress levels and the not-so-gentle humming of f1 engines providing the most soothing of background noises; occasionally a commentator will say something completely out-of-pocket, a gearbox might fail but it’s ‘still testing’ so of course there’s nothing to worry about meanwhile that triple-purple glory lap your fav just did is a perfect indication of the car’s potential

I love that, in Callowmoore moments, Taliesin doesn't rush things, nor does Ashley, so we hold the table hostage in their intimacy and I'm here, butterflies in my stomach, watching how he holds their interaction so well despite them being chairs apart.

Never have I watched such palpable rpg sexual tension, and it's ravishing
