#i havent been able to keep up on my fandoms cause busy life yay....#but alien stage's pretty short #and that ad...like the way it seemed almost targeted to /us/#and the top 3 being our boys (well that's also because our girls are dead. run away. somehow a rebel or something??)#but just......#im obsessed with the implications that us viewers are the aliens #watching their suffering like theyre something we're scoping to own #and sometimes isnt that really what fandom culture can be sort of portrayed as?#im not saying fandoms are these foreign aliens outside of the characters' world (aka their outer space of sorts)....#...who disrupt the characters' peace/invade their world to take them as pets and treat them like beloved animals....#...but im also saying it COULD be scraped to that and that messes me up #i love vivinos so much and the creativity they put in their animations like....ough #alien stage #fandom spamdom #stuff i say
