"Im not even sure anymore if we get to choose who our friends are" There is a part of me that resents you for making me a worse person than i want to be but i am inexplicably uncontrollably drawn to you. You make me a worse person which is the last thing i want yet i want you in every way. If i could leave i would. Maybe i can but i dont want to. I have fun with you. You challenge me and you captivate me and you push me and pull and run circles around me and it makes me feel like a younger man. For the price of being a worse person i get to feel truly, wholly alive. You are the blood that runs through my veins; vital, inseparable. I was reborn when i met you and you are the womb that haunts me. You are the one person on planet earth who knows me. I wish i could leave, move on and be the man im supposed to be but my heart is tied to yours in a gordian knot. There is a part of my soul that rests in yours, magnetic. For as long as i love you i cannot be better than i am. But maybe thats something i can learn to live with. Gregory House-- I think you're worth it.

yknow i really do wish the lsers would evaluate their ableism/sanism problem at some point but i doubt thats ever gonna happen considering that shits normal in society and barely seen as a problem even in leftist spaces

i think you can give a million reasons why rezero is different from generic isekai because its a subversion or deconstruction, but at the end of the day thats not really the important part. i think what really sets it apart is how much love there is for it in its creation. its not a cheap cashgrab banking off of nerdy power fantasies, nor is it soulless in its characters and worldbuilding... theres so much care and effort put into it by tappei, and by the people adapting it into an anime, by the voice actors and sound designers and everything. theres so much love for the individual characters as more than flat tropes, and for the world they live in to be fleshed out, and for the main character's arc and struggles beyond being an isekai protag. i think anyone can take an isekai and make it dark, but without love it would be just as soulless as any other generic isekai. and remember, love is what the story is all about.

netflix one piece live action feels a little like fanfic in that it makes sure it hits all the important notes but doesnt do all the work to make them hit which works in fic where the reader is supposed to bring all the emotional story investment from the original but doesnt work in a multi million adaptation that is supposed to be able to stand on its own or even serve as an intro to the series. it even does this in service to have more koby and helmeppo gay moments in this essay i w

If I had a nickel for every circus themed indie cartoon on youtube... you get it. Also bigtop burger is easily the best

Images of edgy wolves and skeletons with fire and lightning are intended to be made by AMATEURS IN PHOTOSHOP and PEOPLE WHO MAKE AIRBRUSH ART ON VANS AND NICHE CALENDARS, not AI!!!!

Whenever i see them made by ai slop it's like seeing one of those really terribly bred 'designer' pitbulls. Who did this to you, this is cruel. This is painful. You weren't made for this.

how is helluva boss considered the top of indie animation rn. it’s the top of three things and its not that. top of sucking shit. top of being overrated. top of things people are insufferable about for no reason

I got reminded the Lacey's series exists and it really left me confused because... People love and praise that but hate on The Painter?

I want to say it's just bias because Lacey's is very well done style wise (the painter has great art but weak presentation), but Lacey's is pure fucking shock content w little substance. That's why I always hated it. And I still do. It's not even surprising.

And it a way it's fitting for it bc it has that strong 2010s/2000s vibes and horror back then was just like that lmao look at any old creepypasta but it's still edgy as shit.

And I don't want this to be me complaining about that series bc that's not my point what I'm complaining about is how I don't understand how the internet ADORED one but hated the other for arguably the same reasons.

But I also want to complain so see y'all in the tags 👍

yknow what bugs me is when ppls criticism of YA media boils down to them just not knowing how teenage crushes work

soooooo in light of the fact that it seems like The Fandom Collectively Forgot About The Crimes of McShit, do you know anything about the rumors that they're apparently working on redesigns for the offensive stuff? (also literally who is sertif we have heard nothing of them since the callout dropped)

I'll be blunt with you, I don't think it's happening. I don't think the supposed 'Noise DLC' is happening for a good while anyways, so that whole redesigning the two shite enemies..? Don't count on it. If it does happen, I'll be happy. But I'm not having high hopes. It's a good thing that you can /technically/ skip one level in a playthrough so you can avoid one of them, but ehhhhhh. It's one of those cases where you sort of have to bite the bullet and go 'yeah, that's fucked up'.

Y0shi's Island & Crash Bandico0t has some questionable depiction of tribes, too. I still like those games, but I will admit those enemies make me slightly uncomfortable. You can make the argument that all three of these games don't harbor any 'ill will' with the designs, but it's still like. How did you think that was a smart thing to keep in the game. In 2023.

Also, Sertif is the 2nd half of Tour De Pizza, the publishing company. I've personally been trying to attribute the good parts of the game to them. Coder and such. Very friendly and never said the shit McShit did nor would condone it, which makes me wonder if they knew about the shit he said or just... Let it sweep under the rug because they didn't want to cause issues for their job.

Idk. To each their own. I don't think people should be shamed for simply liking the game or anything. They should be shamed for uncritically defending McShit, capeesh?
