"Female characters aren't allowed to be feminine anymore! Why aren't girly girls allowed to kick ass while wearing makeup– oh the actresss are all wearing makeup? Well not enough of it! It's so subtle I barely noticed. And they are never allowed to wear skirts or dresses– ok well those scenes don't count there are some scenes where they DON'T wear dresses. Real girly girls never wear pants. And in fact now that I think about it it's sooo misogynistic that so many of these women in fantasy and action franchises fight. Women are worthy even if they don't display masculine traits like combat! Why- oh, I said I wanted girly girls to kick ass earlier? Well obviously I meant that METAPHORICALLY. Why can't they command armies instead and leave the fighting to the men? Actually now that I think about it that would mean they are the ones making the decisions while the men follow them... that's bad! Why do we only value women if they display talent in a masculine field like politics? And they always have to fix everything while the male love interests are useless. Women deserve to be taken care of! A GOOD female character would have a boyfriend or husband who solves all the major plot points for her! That gives her more time to do feminine things like dressing up prettily and doing her makeup and dancing 🥰"

thinking about that post yesterday that said something along the lines of "you ever have those thoughts you can't touch because it gives you psychic damage?"
me today watching a movie about bullying, wondering why I'm feeling so uneasy and sick, as if 8th and 9th grade weren't some of the worst years of my life because of how I was treated at school
#cryptid's thoughts#I always think I'm over it until media actually shows an accurate depiction of bullying and then I'm on the verge of a panic attack#the faux niceness and pretending they like you just to make fun of you#the online harassment#talking about you like you can't hear them even when you're sitting right there#being ostracized is such a pervasive thing and it fucks you up - especially at that age#the worst part is that I had friends and people who cared about me but it didn't matter because it seemed like most people didn't like me!!#for things I had no control over!!!

your posts are pretentious yet they are devoid of any real meaning and you cover it up with the extensive use of memes which makes the absence of any real though even more glaring, simply consuming intellectual media and voicing the most obvious takes is not enough to actually sound smart which is very disappointing since your blog seemed cool at first
well damn sorry my saying things on the Internet and having fun with it blog didn't pass peer review 😭😭
#asks#girl#forcefully ejected from the insane people website for stupid sry guys i let us all down with my vapid faux thought leader persona :/#we have the best minds of media understanders of our generation on this website reinventing media analysis and intertextuality#why come into my humble house and complain im not one of them 😭😭😭

netflix's the dragon prince: hey, we're here to ride the nostalgia wave from those of you who never emotionally recovered from avatar: the last airbender. we're gonna give you 7 seasons of a similar but insanely watered down formula depicting 4-5 different factions forced to work together for the fate of their world, while grappling with familiar moral quandaries such as:
growing up means not seeing things as black or white; they are actually shades of grey! every other theme in this show however, will contradict this. don't worry about it.
don't let the pain you endure turn you into a bitter old bitch. it's actually infinitely cooler of you to always, without fail, take the high road and be the Bigger Person.
since hatred and bitterness can't undo the wrongs committed against you, they are functionally useless emotions and you shouldn't have them. dummy.
we are all made up of Good and Bad, but only the actually Good Guys who tell the Bad parts of themselves to F off deserve to be happy.
retribution and revenge and violence are always Bad, and committed by Bad People only.
you can save everyone!
everyone is capable of change, they just gotta make the right Choices. Easy peezy.
everyone deserves to live, even killers.
also, there will be so many quips written into the dialogue that you'll risk breaking a tooth from cringing so hard. and lots of gay so we don't get shit from you all like the last time we had to bend over backwards to network TV LGBT restrictions. enjoy feeling good about being doormats, nerds!
#the dragon prince#idk man this show started out with promise#or maybe i've changed since it first came out#but i am starting to detest these goofy faux moral narratives#the older i get the more i see these kinds of themes as shit that keeps lower classes in line tbh#am i reading too much into it?#who does it really help to turn the other cheek all the goddamn time?#all i'm saying is maybe sometimes a bitch needs to get their shit rocked and they'd deserve it and that's not a moral failing#maybe it's okay for people to suffer the consequences of their actions#it's not virtuous of someone to just keep taking shit and doing nothing about it lmao#it's sad and weak and betraying of one's own self to keep bending over backwards and bestowing mercy where it's not owed or appreciated#feels like christian nonsense and i don't like that shit in my media#sometimes the good guy is the guy who stands the fuck up for themselves and chooses not to enable shit behavior#sometimes an eye for an eye is justice and justice is what's right#maybe in screenwriter aaron ehasz's world i'd be considered a villain and i'm okay w that#i have to go back and rewatch atla but i'm afraid it won't hit the way it used to#also there are soooooo many couples in this show??? idk it's nice to have a romance or two in a show like this#but when there's like 5 adjacent love stories it gets distracting and feels pointless#don't you all have bigger fish to fry how can you think of getting your nut when the world's ending

TW Transphobia & Rape Mention
So Rowling has finally lost her shit via a public meltdown on Twitter and shown her true colors. She posted this today insinuating that trans women are rapists. I thought it was fake at first cause this seems out of character for her. I mean, she’s usually a lot more subtle from what I’ve seen in the past. But its real — its really, really real. Its seem that she has opened some sort of charity for rape survivors that offers help solely to cisgender women.
I would recommend, especially if you are trans, maybe not checking out the link. Even though its there if you wanna see it. But its just fucking bad, guys. Like its really, really bad — the whole timeline is a mess of transphobic garbage. Its absolutely disgusting.
This woman needs mental help.

Color me shocked.
Fox News is hosting the GOP debate in Wisconsin. During this build up segment, Martha MacCallum introduces the “random Republican voters” in Wisconsin who will watch the debate. Except, well… there’s a little problem. MacCallum introduces Chris Lawrence as a “Wisconsin GOP voter” who seemingly supports Ron DeSantis. However, MacCallum fails to mention that Chris Lawrence actually works for the Koch Network, who have recently pledged to spend $70 million to defeat President Trump.
@RaheemKassam
Hi I looked into “Wisconsin voter” Christopher Lawrence, why didn’t you tell people he’s a paid activist belonging to the open borders network that recently pledged $70M to stop Trump?
‘Globalist’ Koch Network Blows $70M of Donor Cash to ‘Stop Trump’.
From Sundance Treehouse Blog: "The ‘Koch network’ group Americans for Prosperity Action is dropping $70M+ on a bid to stop President Donald J. Trump becoming the 47th President of the United States, according to a new report which suggests the libertarian billionaire backed organization is campaign in the Republican primaries “for the first time in its nearly 20 year history”.
The money is in addition to a $200M+ fund established by corporate backers for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s campaign, and will likely be used for “digital advertising on the issue of electability in the presidential race,” in addition to direct mail. In such scenarios, high percentages of donor cash ends up in the pockets of campaign consultants and vendors.
The Koch network includes groups such as Americans for Prosperity, Stand Together, i360, the American Legislative Exchange Council, the State Policy Network, the CATO Institute, Americans for Tax Reform, the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the Atlas Network, the Heritage Foundation, the Independent Women’s Forum, the Manhattan Institute, the Reason Foundation, the Texas Public Policy Foundation, and many more.
The organization’s LIBRE initiative even campaigns in favor of amnesty for illegal migrants.
The co-option of the Tea Party movement was spearheaded by the Kochs, who turned it from a citizen-led organization into a pro-corporate, libertarian shell, before dumping it when press attention became too inconvenient.
“The globalist Koch Brothers, who have become a total joke in real Republican circles, are against Strong Borders and Powerful Trade,” Trump tweeted in 2018. “I never sought their support because I don’t need their money or bad ideas.”
Not only has Chris Lawrence worked for the Koch Network for the past 9 years, he is also the Senior Field Director for the Koch group Americans for Prosperity. In essence, Lawrence is a political operative planted in the group by Fox News to support Ron DeSantis and make it appear like he is an innocuous voter. Fox News and Martha MacCallum should be embarrassed, but they won’t be.
Don’t forget, Ron DeSantis supporters Eric Erickson and Guy Benson sit on the Koch Network AfP Advisory Board (see here).
It’s all one big game of illusion, and Fox News is once again a big part of the Republican fraud. Proving yet again, that everything in the Ron DeSantis orbit is astroturf, phony, manufactured and made up."

So this is the centerpiece for a mixed media project (the other two parts aren’t finished). It’s about treatment of autistics with low support needs as basically neurotypical and how that negatively impacts when I actually do have needs. There’s also the element of being deemed “one of the good ones” however it’d the side pieces that would made that theme clear.
I actually really like how this ends up reflecting how it feels when I’m overstimulated
