im gonna sound mean bc thinking about this makes me angry but if you genuinely cannot wrap your head around transmascs (largely though not exclusively people afab and forced into female social roles) as direct targets of misogyny (bc they are largely people afab and forced into female social roles) and transphobia (bc they are trans) and that those two things intersect bc they are direct targets of both. you are quite frankly just a fucking moron.
#if transmisogyny refers to oppression of transfems specifically then transmacs need a wird describing the same things as they apply to them#BC TRANSMASCS ARE ACTIVE TARGETS OF TRANSPHOBIA AND MISOGYNY#any claims otherwise are just . incorrect#its isnt 'lesser'.

#house md#gregory house#eric foreman#screencap#s05e13 “Big Baby”#s06e20 “Baggage”#im capable of being normal#not#like thats a pretty deep theme with house#this is about him solely him with stacy with cuddy with wilson#(even ducklings to a lesser extent )#and its not a happy theme! bc when talking abt house - love doesn't come without death closely behind#and pain is associated w both#and when his head “doesn't work”#nearly the only part of himself he values#and he hates the fact i think#he do be seeing value but its hard to accept when youve honed in on logic#like he denying himself a snack and isnt happy abt it but “thats how it has to be”

i keep thinking about the datamined conversation between halsin and minthara and what gets me about it is that if you side with halsin and turn minthara away, thats objectively the bad choice.
like at this point, you've rescued minthara from moonrise. you know now that she was being controlled to act against her will. you've gone to the trouble of rescuing her from her tormentors, and you've experienced what it felt like as they tried to destroy her mind. you know what will happen to her if you turn her away. and if you do, you're willingly condemning her to that fate. you've essentially allowed her to experience freedom, to regain her sense of self, only to tear that away from her again.
whereas if you side with minthara, and halsin leaves, that's the only consequence he experiences. that he's not a companion anymore. at this point, we've saved the grove, we've saved him, and we've lifted the shadow curse. we've helped him achieve what hes been hoping to do for over a century. leaving your party won't see him lose his free will. he can return to the grove and live his life.
the choice is essentially either condemn someone to a fate worse than death, knowing exactly what that entails vs not letting someone travel with you anymore. its pretty clear cut to me.
its just interesting to me that they've switched the morality of it around given that minthara is considered the 'evil' companion by so many.
#baldur's gate 3#baldur's gate 3 spoilers#bg3 spoilers#minthara#minthara baenre#before anyone comes at me and says that halsin is allowed to have his prejudice and his trauma. im not saying hes not#not sure about someone being allowed to have prejudice but yes thats part of human nature i guess#my point isnt that hes not allowed to react like this#my point is that hes wrong.#sure he can be struggling with his trauma and his prejudice over minthara being a lolth sworn (even if shes not anymore)#BUT. at this point we as a character /know/ theres more to her. we know that hes making an unfair assessment of her#which is even more jarring if you're a drow/lolth sworn drow#and at this point. you've saved the grove youve saved him youve helped him break the curse. he tells you its a debt he cant repay#and that hes so thankful. but he wont trust you or your decision. he won't even attempt to#and u know what thats fine. he doesnt have to. but if you're siding with him you're condemning her. you're killing her#if you side against him. he can go back to his responsibilities as an arch druid rather than leaving it in someone elses hands (which was?)#that is the lesser of the two evils here#yes you can call minthara the 'evil' character because shes a lolth sworn but thats just buying into the prejudice halsin is showing#and its wrong#anyways. my point is good for him if he wants to demand you make a ridiculous choice#but turning her away is the bad choice and tbh i feel like the game wants u to know that#and sure if you want to boil it down to which character u like more than the other and u prefer halsin. ur obvs gonna side with him#but in that case u probably wouldn't even get this conversation#because why would u have bothered to spare / save minthara in the first place?

im not saying all of my posts are bangers, but its hard not to notice that posts i make about other companions easily break 100 notes no sweat, with the upper limit breaching 1k, to outliers of well over 4k, but whenever it's about wyll, it's crickets. i dunno, youre allowed to interact with anything you want to, and this isnt a call to reblog from me, specifically, this is the same for a lot of wyll orientated posts ive seen, but its just odd. and by odd i mean racist.
#the tomes#bg3#bg3 wyll#wyll ravengard#wyll bg3#baldurs gate wyll#baldur's gate 3#baldurs gate 3#ive went back and forth on whether or not to post abt this bc i dont want it to come off like WHY is nobody REBLOGGING from ME#but i want to emphasize thats not what im saying#im saying when i see my other posts take off when theyre about white people you notice when they dont for the black character#and like yeah i dont have a TON of wyll posts#theyre mostly about gale -looks at url- obviously#but i dont have a ton for halsin or astarion either and yet they have no trouble#and to a lesser extent this kinda happens with the female characters too#i dont see a lot of fan content for them#also i wasnt sure if my wyll stuff just maybe isnt as good as my other stuff#but when im consistently seeing positive feedback for everyone BUT wyll it does make u wonder#my wyll stuff does about the same as my solo tav stuff#which is fine irt to the solo tav stuff as much as i obviously want ppl to take interest and im not going to pretend i dont#its not like theyre a canon character to anyone but me so i honestly dont take offence to that#but its weird that wyll - a canon character - does about the same as my ocs when nobody really KNOWS my ocs#its not that my wyll posts get NO engagement#but my wyll posts and my tav posts normally sit at around 50ish notes#which i think is perfectly respectable for an oc post#but WYLL??

Ekko straight beat the fuck out of jinx and people are frothing on their fanfiction ass ep but caitlyn elbows vi once and it's game over never redeemable ever.
Smoking crack
No literally its fucking unreal. Watching a dude beat a woman nearly to death and thinking thats cute while also watching someone essentially get elbowed and claiming its abuse is a different type of deranged
#thank god its not just me#again in another universe? sure#but not in the real one. not in a million fucking years lmao#if caitlyn beat vi to the brink of death id say the same thing#and saying its different because caitlyn is rich and vi isnt is so????#huh???#poor people domestic violence isnt real i guess#especially as a person that grew up poor. i genuinely am in fucking awe#rip to my friends physically abusive parents but its actualy healthy because they are BOTH poor#also like literally the whole point of caitvi is that they KNOW how different they are and try to find equal ground#if vi thought for one second that caitlyn saw her as lesser shed nope tf out#people portray vi like shes some stupid lost puppydog and not a fully realized grown woman that sets VERY clear boundaries with people#she checked caitlyn every time she acted up

One of these days I'm going to make a lyric comic for Helsknight to Opposite of Icarus by Kyle Stibbs. One of these days.....
#spazzcat barks#delete later#i just think its a good song for his relationship with his Saint pre RnS#i cant put you in your place but being your servent i order you now play your roll#ill be lesser than dirt to you -- isnt it the opposite of icarus where we find our meaning?#humility. humiliate me. if power corrupts then just let me be weak...

ok newsletter euphoria has worn off i hate love again
#why is sccs relationship ambiguous. confim theyre siblings Please. i need more characters who Cant be shipped.#characters just Saying theyre friends And Nothing More isnt enough for some reason.#them Saying theyre friends doesn work unfortunately. let peole be friends let people &characters exist outside the lense of romance shut up#sorry. i saw a post and have been bitter abt it. it wasn’t even utdr it was abt the owlhouse#romance is not 'the next step' after friendship. romance is not 'a better version' of a friendship. ill kill you#AND YEAH YES FRIENDSHIP IS A SPECTRUM. LOVE COMES IN SHADES. QPRS BLUR THE LINES.#but im Tired of people acting like platonic bonds are lesser. im tired of friendships in media Having to turn into a romance or Secretly be#im tired of characters fucking Existing in th same space and people going 'oh theyre in love' where. where.#'what about c/apsei' its funny. you guys cant even make your ships funny.

why is he posed like a dead oblivion npc
#stranger things#martin brenner#oblivion#not going to think about the martin brenner martin septim parallels for too long#esp with the duffers’ lotr autism vs martin septim being played by sean bean#and esp with the fallout references in st vs oblivion/elder scrolls and fallout being both bethesda etc etc#staring at martin septim’s whole weird time thing & him starting as a priest vs brenner priest stuff#and all the weird brenner-one stuff vs martin being ‘The One’ & the remple of the One#(and ‘the one’ is its own specific thing/its not the dame as just casually saying ‘the chosen one’)#and martin’s weird blood/the septim blood vs brenner sr’s weird blood#and how martin’s blood is what connects him to the time weirdness/akatosh & allowed all the shit to happen in the temple of the one#and martin being Dragonborn vs the whole ‘dragon inside rhe body of a man/creature inside a human body’ thing irr to dragonborn#vs brenner’s weird creature stuff#anyway not saying its anything firm i just think its interesting#especially re: oblivion & adam adamowicz’ hefty influence/work on it#vs him also being the sole concept artist/The Guy TM for fallout 3 & st having a ton of specific song dialogue etc references to fallout 3#and like re: elder scrolls vs st in general#its also like. elder scrolls is unique compared to other typical fantasy stuff in the sense of how often it crosses into sci fi and horror#ESPECIALLY oblivion#and esp with elder scrolls’ ties to dnd which is a whole other can of worms#and uriel septim getting trapped in the void & then returning changed like brenner sr in dimension x and both#having military backgrounds#and having fruity little sons named martin HGWDBDB#also 4ever thinking about baurus describing the septims/uriel and martin as#‘they see more than lesser men’ and uriel’s fucked up visions and him ranting about the *gates* opening#anyway it is just funny to me like#if i had a nickel for every old military man with weird blood and a weird little son named martin who got trapped in another dimension and#then was the sole person to return in a piece of media that talks about ‘gates’ constantly#i would have two nickels which isnt a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice#oh and dont think 2 hard about the creel rose stuff vs martin septim’s rose stuff re: the sanguine rose

I wont really care if iwtv doesnt get nominated at all because that has nothing to do the production of the series and more to do with the consistent lack of respect for genre series. However, if s*m or er*c get the supporting actor nom over ass*d I will be deeply pissed about it till next season
#like its all a sham yk? if jacob isnt nominated im not gonna be happy but also not surprised#interview is already kind of a reach for any category because its a genre show ontop of being a drama#but either of the white guys get nominated over assad despite the objectively lesser performances (no hate to them fr)#it is just sheer racism like#and especially if only either of them get nom'd#char.txt

......do I dare say r/hack for the ask meme
(head in hands. dejected.) bingo...
#putting obvious grievances aside and being objective:#i think its biggest crime is what happens with a lot of jack ships where both characters are just left lesser for it.#saying this as someone who (grits teeth) really likes jack. btw.#the dynamics that come from both resistant and compliant rhys playthroughs are interesting but lose my interest when made romantic.#i think a having a superfan of an objectively bad person meet said person and facing the reality that they are in fact. horrible.#is fun! is interesting. but to ship them muddies it for me. i just dont think its necessary to make rhys' half of tales compelling.#better as friends isnt as actual “friends” but just as temporary allies. to be clear.#and some of these i can't mark because i can see Why its popular. from a fandom sense anyway.#magnuficentwo

You ever see a post you agree with and then you go to the persons blog and all their other posts sound like fucking Measurehead from disco elysium
#mutuals this isnt about any of you lol#like i dont care if i actually do agree with your opinions (in this situation i dont) if you talk like that im less likely to hear you out#its not about lack or grammar or smth its about going “THE LESSER PEOPLE ARE PUSHED BY THE SYSTEM” and what not#like just feeling like youre all high and mighty

does the average sonic fan know that pre reboot archie sonic said mighty and ray are brothers because i think about it all the time
#and i know archie sonic isnt canon to the games but i like this detail and theres not anything in the games that contradicts it#so i have accepted it into my belief system for every continuity theyre in#they didnt just imply they have a brotherly relationship btw theyre like straight up adopted brothers and they say it multiple times#they had a whole story about mighty wanting to find his biological sister#and ray worrying that mighty wont need him anymore once he gets his ''real'' sibling back#but then at the end mighty obviously still wants him around and doenst see him as lesser than his biological sibling#so ray gets to keep his brother AND get a new sister#and its soo cute. i think about it a lot

Ghouls will create elaborate charts to organize game plotpoints and relationships
#brie rambles#this isnt even for the main game i fear....#anyway its mainly broken down like this:#note on the big point and feeling of the charas individual storylines.#Major plotpoints with secondary and then third plotpoints between secondary and major#and then a note on charas relationships with each other and how that informs their relationships with eachother on each individual route#this is for skeleton draft 1...#lesser but important note is how other stats play into things

hot bully take: there are so many complex group relationship dynamics being portrayed in bully and im honestly tired of how the fandom waters most of them down to "oh theyre all besties"
#the preps most frequently fall victim to this i think#you got these rich kids that would clearly backstab each other and weve got the fandom pretending they all like to go on shopping trips or#bake cookies or whatever which is like. disappointing considering how the power struggle is so interesting#im also not fond of how the preps are dumbed down in general but like. thats another topic#the same thing also happens w the jocks but to a lesser extent. especially w ted and damon's relationship#like theres so much potential for expanding on the jock hierarchy and how it affects their relationships which is just wholly ignored#the nerds and the greasers can arguably be considered as loyal to one another but even then i dont think its all sweet either#especially w the greasers and their disdain for lola and her relationship w johnny#bottom line: being in a clique together doesnt mean these people automatically like each other#i could go on but like im admittedly not as familiar w the townies and w the bullies (tho ill argue that theyre the most loyal)#anyways this isnt to rain on anyone's parade or anything you can ofc enjoy whatever hcs you want tho#i just wish there was more room for complexity since theres so much potential#bully scholarship edition#bully cce
