stranger things fandom never heard the phrase "every saint has a past and every sinner has a future" and it shows
#the way yall can NOT grasp the complexity of the human experience never ceases to baffle me#if you go around with the attitude of 'if you do anything wrong ever you will always be a Bad person even if you try to make ammends' it#will genuinely ruin your life#AND what kills me is yall tout yourselves as these open minded liberals who are anti cop anti justice system#we need to be more accepting !!!#until the SECOND a person you personally dont like starts acting up#and then the republican comes out REAL quick#the evangelical conservative bible thumper JUMPS out#you know how to be an open minded accepting person?#listen to the people you dont like#hear their stories#offer help#a good person does not only extent a hand to people they like#which... you all watch stranger things i understand why you dont get that message#cuz this is the show of 'the only good guys are the ones who think and act just like us'#so#i see what we're dealing with

I am here. I am not a robot; I am a real person who has suffered greatly.
I reached out to ask you: is it normal to die a little every day? Is it normal that I haven’t seen the rest of my family in a year? Is it normal that I am unable to meet my mother’s basic needs, like her medicine? Is it normal to have to move with my mother, who has a spinal disc issue, for the tenth time, bearing the burdens of relocation? Is it normal to watch my mother fall ill and be unable to do anything for her?
I am truly exhausted and have found no one to help me. I am not asking you for financial support. I may be weak and unable to reach everyone, and my voice is unheard. All I ask of you is to share my story in your own way. Include my campaign at the end of a public survey or share my story through an expressive drawing, and spread it clearly to highlight its importance.
I have not forgotten the pain of losing my father, so please, my mother deserves to live. Your help is my hope.
Free Palestine. Spread their stories 🇵🇸

This tweet lives rent-free in my head now. Hands-down the best comment about the relationship between art and artist.
#Neil Gaiman#neil gaiman allegations#this hits harder after hearing Claire's story#he's a powerful manipulator#who knew what he was doing

people who go through the main tags of big and tumultuous fandoms looking for new fresh good posts to reblog are essential to any circle. they’re like true hunter gatherers leaving the safety of settlement and braving the unknown wilderness to find food for the flock. they risk their lives every day and will come back with a few scratches at best and severe psychological damage at worst
#peach rambles#hall of fame i guess#i love hearing everyone share their stories in the comments. me personally? this is about kingdom hearts#usually the main culprit is disdain and dusty old misogynistic takes for kairi (the main girl)#there's x reader occasionally#cursed content with random disney characters#or people who complain about how much the series has expanded#that don't understand that over half the story is contained in the so-called 'side games'#or just generally dusty takes that have been disproven already

Into the pit is FNAF’s own Coraline story..
#myart#chloesimagination#comic#fnaf#five nights at freddy's#fnaf fanart#fnaf oswald#into the pit#pit bonnie#coraline#fnaf foxy#william afton#GUYS hear me out#Into the pit is just like Coraline..#from portals to another world they can only go to at night#or how a nightmare creature starts to pretend being their parents#to the ghost kids and rundown towns they hate#Oswald and Coraline have pretty similar stories#Which I think is so cool#I WANTED to draw something for this concept#so I redrew the iconic scene where Coraline is gifted the button eyes#with Oswald getting gifted the foxy suit#in suggestion the only way Oswald can stay there is by being stuffed into a suit himself#I might do more with this concept? we’ll see 🙏🏾

At a party and a guy was telling me about how one of his coworkers was complaining about how he thought his dealer was lacing his heroin with cocaine and then the party guy was like “but his dealer was his brother” and I said “that’s some cocaine and abel shit” and the joke flopped so hard but I stand by it so I had to share it somewhere
#drugs tw#in case anyone is wondering what the context was we were talking about kooky coworkers so this story was a lot to hear even in context

When I was a kid, I regularly lost reading privileges for "having an attitude" and "acting out".
It wasn't as simple as being told not to read during other activities- one of the first times it happened, I remember being six years old, watching my stepfather pull fistfuls of books off my bookshelf and throw them to the floor in a heaping mess while I cried and asked him to stop.
It was weird. Every other adult I knew described me as exceptionally well-behaved, but at home, it was the opposite, and it was blamed on "learning bad habits from that shit you're reading".
Because I couldn't read at home, I spent all my free time at school in the library, reading with my friends.
When I grew up and moved away, I realized that my family life was toxic and abusive, and the "attitudes" I was being punished for were standing up for myself, standing up for my younger siblings, and resisting actual, real-life psychological abuse. Because I'd learned from what I'd read that my family wasn't normal, not like my parents said it was, and in my stories, the heroes were the people who spoke out when it was hard to.
It is insane to me that there are students right now who can't access books. It is insane that books are being outlawed. It is perverse that we are stealing away an entire generation's ability to contextualize their lives, to learn about the world around them, to develop critical thinking skills and express themselves and feel connected to the world or escape from it, whatever and whenever and however they need.
That is not how you raise a compassionate, thoughtful, powerful society.
That's how you process cattle.
It's fucking disgusting.
#I know this is old news but Jesus#Every day I hear more about school book bans and I feels less real#Restriction of information is restriction of freedom#People need stories#Even bad stories#Even tragic or problematic ones#We need to set purity culture on fire I'm not kidding#Abuse mention#Abuse tw

reading and watching “classic” books and films is such an interesting experience because, before you get into them, when you only know them by name and maybe the vaguest plot outline, they’re intimidating and stuffy and up on a pedestal, but then you finally take the leap and check them out and realize that almost every story that’s achieved such a legendary level of popularity did so because something in its emotional core reached out and grabbed a lot of people by the throat and you are NOT immune.
#not that anyone but me probably needs to hear this but…#it’s OKAY to have Big Feelings about popular things#they’re popular for a reason - it makes sense to have a big reaction#but yeah - i should really know by now but i’m STILL floored every time i read or watch a classic and it Gets Me#like. this story has been Getting people for decades or centuries or MILLENNIA and yet STILL i’m surprised#‘i didn’t think the story would Get me’ says man about story that’s Gotten everyone who’s ever heard it

It can't be overstated how powerful the catharsis is when a scene of a character connecting with their wounded inner child is done right. The key poses...the expressions...the timing...storytelling like this can help to provide some healing for so many people in the audience.
#(hear it from me as a former therapist --)#I basically have had many sessions with clients where it's WAY easier to visually show them what inner child work is like#rather than verbally trying to break down the concept and explain it to them in mere words#if you show them visually it hits the subconscious right away. bypasses the conscious mind and cold logic#to show this in the form of art drives the concept home that much more#that's why we need stories about healing done right#the How to Connect Lovingly part is soooo hard to do honestly (speaking from my own personal experiences too)#it's so easy to keep loathing your wounded inner kid and finding him/her/them pathetic#arcane spoilers#arcane s2#jinx arcane#isha arcane#arcane#literally like...now that I have seen this scene I want to dig up the old photo of smol me that I used in my own therapy --#to connect with my own horribly traumatized inner kid

Anyway I had fun this season
#Seta Speaks#Seta memes#The Legend of Vox Machina#TLOVM#Critical Role#As someone who plays D&D and knows the bones of the C1 story but doesn't have 200 hours of life to sink into it#I'm still finding the show enjoyable-- even if I think S3 was a little weaker and more disjointed than previous seasons#But it's fun to see spells I recognize and hear actors who clearly enjoy working together rift off each other so#Here's hoping S4 is fun :)#top posts

Edwin after the confession is a menace
Bonus Charles being normal about it:
#payneland#edwin x charles#dead boy detectives#dbda#give a man a warning Edwin smh#what is he doing anyway? is it on purpose? he just can't help himself now thta he accepted his feelings? he just likes saying it?#not even he know methinks#honestly charles should hear how loved he is often#i think edwin would agree#also I think it would be funny if they had to deal with a specific kind of creature at least once a year#i picked the church grim because there truly are a lot of stories about them#and it felt fitting
