#my biggest petpeeve

Ah, American restroom cubicles…I have not missed you or your creepy function to deprive me of privacy while peeing in public spaces, in the three weeks I’ve been gone.

[thewardenofwinter]

you know the new WIP brainrot bad when you pull up Pinterest and manage to add 200 pins on your first go 😔

i really really hope this fantasy project keeps the romance this time cuz the last fantasy romance projects i've TRIED to write, i end up forgetting about the romance part of it halfway and just end up killing off one of the love interests so i don't have to try to rewrite it in 💅

If I ever get to the point I make comics for my various fandom AUs, my only requirements for the font are gonna be:

1. It has to legible (meaning people can actually read it)

and

2. There has to be a very obvious difference between a lowercase L and an uppercase i. None of that "just a line" bullshit. I'd include a 1, but I feel like that tends to be more obvious.

Also not to be that persona but. JUST BECAUSE IT LOOKS PHOTO REALISTIC DOESN'T MEAN IT'S LIVE ACTION. Just say you're boring when it comes to animation.

one day i'll make a video essay about how the disney live action remakes undermine both animation and musical theater as art forms and storytelling mediums

One of my biggest petpeeves when it comes to xenofiction and xenofiction roleplay, is what I can only call the felinification of canines.

Whenever it comes to fighting, canines will often use their claws to scratch their foes or scar them. When it comes to biting, the damage is often muscle deep at the worst and the wounds mostly just bleed a lot.

This ignores so much of what makes canines so deadly over giving them the same deadly traits as a feline. A (wolf relative) canine can easily break the bones of their foes in a single bite and often the deadliest thing they can do is not let go. As for claws, while they can leave shallow scratches, canine claws are dull and are used for digging and running. Feline claws are sharp because they do not use them for running or digging, literally keeping them safe until they need to be used. I understand that internal injuries are often a step too far for most media, and that broken bones and bruises aren't hardcore enough. But I still think there could be a balanced depiction of a canine that uses their actual anatomy and doesn't just paste feline traits on them.

Wrote about this in the tags of another post, but my biggest yeehan petpeeve is seeing hanzo be feminized when being shipped with Cole or any man perceived as more masculine than him in fandom. I'm fine with ppl having their size difference fantasies, but let's be real? Hanzo is just as if not more buff than Cole. Like, have you seen the size of his tits? His forearms? Literal beefcake. The only thing tiny on him is his waist and his ankles that I'm still a 100% convinced are mechanical ( idc overwatch canon he cannot be that top heavy with such tiny twigs).

But back to my point. The whole appeal to yeehan. At least personally--is the homoerotic nature of putting two men who are the pinnacle of traditional nastolgic masculinity in their own respective cultures together and making them scissor hard like barbie dolls. Then, be too caught up in their masculinity and internalized homophobia to talk about it during the morning after.

[guillerhomo]

that shits so annoying my god. my biggest petpeeve #1 that constantly gets said about two clearly gay characters is “um actually their bond is too deep and profound to be some stupid old gay love story” oh give me a fucking break. go be healed by the power of homosexuality and then get back to me

Hot Take about Greta Gerwig's Barbie but for being advertised as a movie about "girlhood" and nostalgia and like, and how that informs what it means to be a woman, it really...wasn't?

My biggest petpeeve from the movie wasn't the "liberal propoganda" everyone said it was — my biggest problem was that the entire message was self-contradictory. Anytime one thing was asserted, something else would happen to undermine that claim. (See, the fact that we spend the entire movie talking about how the human world is horrible and men are scum, only to have Barbie decide she wants to be human at the end? Or the fact that the movie is about equality, only to decide that men in Barbieland can only ever have the level of rights women in the real world have, which is perpetuating the exact kind of discrimination the movie set out to decry).

There were multiple beautiful scenes of Barbie watching humans be human and those scenes almost made me cry, but they ultimately didn't actually have anything to do with the theme of the movie and could have been removed. They were just there to generate emotions that were left totally unexplored. Which leads me to what I wish the Barbie movie had been:

I wish it had followed the outline of a lot of Christmas movies, like the Santa Claus movies. I wish it followed a completely cynical grown woman who forgot what it was like to be a child, and with that, forgot virtue. I wish it showed us a woman who had bought into the lie that femininity is inherently bad, and that she should be "like a man" in order to climb in the business world. She doesn't let her kids have dolls, or tutus. And then she meets Barbie and suddenly she starts to remember. She remembers what it is like to see beauty everywhere you go. To trust that there are good people in this world. That letting yourself be sensitive is what makes you fully alive.

She sees Barbie—fashionista, astronaut, president, flight attendant, doctor — and remembers that she doesn't have to be a man. She can be a mother and a buisnesswoman. She can love her babies and climb in the buisnessworld. She can follow her dreams.

She sees the unique call of woman, the reason the world needs us — for our receptivity, our sensitivity, our interpersonal relationships, our nurturing, our creativity. Our ability to find beauty in the darkest of places and strengthen it. She realizes her business needs her, not as the brash bossbabe she has been taught to be, but as the compassionate, open-minded child she was. As the person who can build bridges, not be a cut throat buisness woman.

I wish it had been about the virtues of girlhood. And how remembering what it was like to be a child makes you a better woman today.

Smut Petpeeves

This is a post I've been really torn about making for a while now. I know it's probably going to make me come off as some kind of elitist or whatever, but I really can't hold this in anymore. There are some things that partners do in lewd threads that really start to kill the mood for me, and I feel like I have to talk about them.

Number one: Weird positioning This is by far the most common one. It feels like some people just don't pay attention at all to where characters are when describing their actions. For example, say one of my muses is giving your muse oral, and yours tries to reach down to cup her breasts. Think about this. Her head is between your character's legs. Your character would have to reach down past her head in order to reach her chest, and you'd have to cup it under-handed. That just doesn't work. Actually consider what's happening in a scene before throwing out whatever lewd action pops into your head.

Number two: Flexing This one is a little more vague, but I always roll my eyes when a partner tries to flex their muse's 'attributes' in a smut thread. I won't name names, but I've actually had partners in the past write things like "it was the biggest cock she'd ever taken." Like... Are you trying to compensate for something through your character? It's fine to have your muses be well-endowed or attractive, but I can't help but roll my eyes reading replies where you try to imply your muse is the best fuck mine will ever have. It almost feels like your trying to attack my other RP partners.

Number three: Dragging a scene on Sometimes partners will try and keep a scene going for way, way longer than it should. Like, my character is pinned down and getting railed for several replies in a row. At a certain point, I'll have them cum at what I usually feel is a natural point to do so. And my partner... Just keeps going. Their muse is still hammering away, not even close to having an orgasm. This puts me in an awkward spot because there's only so many ways I can describe my character moaning or their tits bouncing while I wait for yours to finally cum. At the very least, if you want to have your character outlast mine in terms of stamina (which kind of feels like it borders on flexing territory), maybe try changing up positions so I have something to react to.

Anyways, sorry for this little rant. These are just some things that get under my skin while doing smut. I'm not trying to call anyone out in-particular, but I do hope people will take these points to heart when doing lewd roleplays in the future. Not just for me, but for all partners.

@eternalstarlights has sent: 🌸 = my roleplay petpeeve, 🌵 = a disliked canon character in my fandom,💐 = my favorite part about the fandom, 🌿 = my least favorite part about the fandom

Send me a symbol and I will tell you… [Accepting]

🌸 = my roleplay petpeeve

// Bc this has been happening across several blogs, not just here:

Reblog karma: If you have no plans of sending something back, then the least you should do is reblog them, from the source or look elsewhere in the posts' notes to reblog from.

I'm constantly going back in my prompts tag to delete old reblogs. BUT THERE ARE STILL, complete strangers who dig through it and reblog it from me. Like?????????? That has the same effect as a 'fuck you' in my DMs. It's 10x funnier, if it is one of those blogs with a long ass pinned/rules page. And they still had no qualms in doing this shit. It's not quirky, let me tell you that much.

Notice, I'm not complaining about not receiving asks whenever I reblog something. That's not an issue for me (mutuals/rp partners should only send stuff, when they genuinely feel like doing so, without any obligations). All I'm asking is to not make me feel like, I'm just a RP memes archive type of blog, that's only there to provide writing prompts & nothing else. I may not be the most active RPer, but none of my blogs are abandoned.

This has been a long running peeve I've been having to deal with, for YEARS. And it made a resurface as of lately.

🌵 = a disliked canon character in my fandom

// Hades & his spectres/Judges are overrated as fuck IMO LOL I say as a clown, bc I'm a classic golds dweeb fan. Clearly, I'm not in a position to say what is or isn't overrated.

Jokes aside. It may have been a result of the way I tried watching the classic series (by binge watching the entire thing). BUT when I got to the Hades arc, I got SO mad when I realized they brought back those drawn out battles. Like those were my least enjoyed bits of the early parts of the anime and the Sanctuary arc, meanwhile the Poseidon arc didn't have any of that (which is why I rate the Poseidon arc as my favorite one of the anime adaptation. 15 episodes with NO filler??? HELL YEAH.).

You can say I was already pretty burned, and should have slowed down with the final part of the series. But even then, I don't think that would have changed a thing about my general disinterest towards Hades' servants. Visually speaking to me, they are the messiest and most boring looking characters from the classic series (they only ever wear 1 color and look way too much like a toy, than some form of proper armor).

Rhadama.nthys is the biggest bitch in the club, to me he was the most insufferable. "He is the strongest*tm of all judges." *= only when Hades is straight up cheating and the story feels like unnecessarily drag things out. Reminder that Kanon killed him without any cloth equipped, and he went out the way HE chose to. He literally didn't even have to TRY.

My favorite part of the Hades arc was seeing Kanon wipe the floor, with everyone he crossed paths with. This feels 10x more satisfying, after reading the Destiny & Origins extra chapters.

💐 = my favorite part about the fandom

// I truly mean when I say, this is the chillest community I've been in a long time. Case in point: I haven't felt THIS artiscally inspired in YEARS. I've been doing so many works, I'm literally running an event in the main fandom. I've been brimming with inspiration to do so many things, that goes beyond the RPing aspect. And it has improved my general mental health SO much!

I'm forever thankful for getting into Sts LOL

🌿 = my least favorite part about the fandom

// If you exclusively speak English, you will suffer to find anything or anyone else from this fandom. Which isn't a problem for me at all but, I can see how frustrating or sad it must feel like, you can't get into a community due to a language barrier.

And the community itself isn't exactly the friendliest one towards gringos. Which I mean............ You can't blame us for feeling defensive, when literally every other fandom went down to shit, when things became very American-centered.

Not to start the whole Anti vs proship debate. BUT It is a fact that all antis (ppl who want to be cops/have no qualms with harrassing or policing others/etc.) I've come across are an American, who's way too enthralled in their lil bubble they call world. Then they have a breakdown bc as it turns out, the rest of the world isn't AT ALL like them. And there's genuine pushback/retaliation from the community, against these kinds of whiny bitchass mfers LOL.

Obviously, this doesn't mean the fandom is perfect nor it's an Utopia, where there isn't drama at all. BUT when compared to others, it feels a lot tamer in comparison. Unfortunately, it comes at the cost of coming off as a very closed off fandom, that's centered around overseas things for a change.

TW for therian discourse, infighting, and aggressive/assertive tone. I just need to vent real quick.

-> Feel free to scroll/disregard this post <-

My biggest petpeeve in the therian community is, without a doubt, gatekeeping.

"Therianthropy is nonphysical!" this and "you can't choose to be a therian!" that.

What if we just realized that everyone's brain and belief system works differently, and you can literally choose whatever label you want for yourself.

I've seen so many posts saying, "Someone said that chosen therian are invalid, but they're wrong! They're just using the wrong terms! Otherlinkers are just as valid as therians!"

Chosen therians ARE therians, not otherlinkers. Only individuals can choose their own labels; others cannot choose them for them. There is no single verbatim definition of therianthropy. There is no universal judge on who counts as a REAL therian and who's a fake. There are no fakes unless they are consciously, intentionally, and deliberately faking.

Chosen therians are just as valid as other therians, and otherlinkers are ALSO just as valid as therians and any other alterhuman identitiy. Voluntary identities are valid, even when it comes to therianthropy.

Send me a symbol and I will tell you…🌸 = my roleplay pet peeve

My biggest pet peeve when roleplaying is when people tell me how my muse reacts to something. I fucking hate it when people block me into a corner. It's the fastest way to make me stop/slow replies. I just lose the muse because I don't feel like I'm driving anymore. I get that sometimes we need to gloss over some things to keep moving, but I don't like being told how my character is reacting/feeling.

[inky-thoughts]

13 and 15 for the artist ask thing!

thank you for the ask!!

13. Show your favourite drawing from last year

this is probably even the only thing I actually finished last year 😅 I drew a lot but there's little finished

15. Biggest artist pet peeve?

oh. ooooohhh this is a wasp nest haha

uh, one of my biggest petpeeves is when people draw mermaids/merfolk with what is essentially a knee joint.

also, please learn how to draw different facial features!! if I read your webcomic/manga and can only tell apart your character by their hair cut and/or hair colour, please sit down and study different faces! also there's more than just 2 noses in this world and no, the others ARE NOT UGLY and shouldn't be reserved for the "bad guys" or old people.

oh also, learn how to draw older (especially middle-aged) people! faces change and no, a 40-something doesn't look 1:1 like a 18 year old just with some odd lines in the face that don't add any dimensionality. the tissue changes over time! and yes people can still look insanely attractive WITH WRINKLES. YES WOMEN TOO.

hhhh I could probably rant forever but I'll stop here for now. So Many Opinions!

[melfeek]

One of my biggest fanfic petpeeves is when the story is set in a completely different universe, then the author uses our pop culture references

Like why are one piece characters talking about Star Wars??!!

[autumn-foxfire]

Episode 304! Also known as the episode that Conan freaks the fuck out of Takagi. Or at least that's why I remember the episode XD

Ran really just doesn't question the "I'm on a case," excuse at all and I wish she would. Or at least make some hint that she's not that naive and has noticed his random change in behaviour, from disappearing from the public eye and asking for his name to never be involved in cases anymore when in the past he loved the attention. She deserves so much more as a character.

Gosho really, really doesn't know how romance works.

Shinichi and Haibara just solving the codes for the police T-T What would they do without them.

One of my biggest petpeeves in romance is when someone has a love interest who has passed away and their new love interest "reminds" them of them because it never feels like they love the character for them but rather the person who they lost.

I know Sonoko looking at Makoto's face for strength and inspiration and then Ran looking at the text Shinichi sent was supposed to be the same for her, but considering it's a picture of her own face, I'm just taking it as gaining strength and inspiration from herself because she really deserves to have a character outside of Shinichi.

Actually, children, when someone says they aren't interested, you should respect their decision instead of pushing them. That is called consent and it is extremely important in a relationship. Now, of course, in Takagi and Satou's case, it's miscommunication that is preventing their relationship, but it's a very important lesson that not many people respect.

I hope Ran got told off for cheating with looking back so often.

Shinichi watching Takagi leave: I have to go save him, Haibara, watch the kids.

Shinichi is good with kids, especially scared kids.

These reporters are going to get someone killed.

I wonder if Shinichi defused bombs in Hawaii.

The worst line in this episode being followed by the best line of this episode, how tragic.

It's so reductive of his character to just focus on Ran's life when there are so many lives on the line. Okay, I am going to say it. It's probably more controversial to some but Ran and Shinichi bring out the worst in each others characters most of the time instead of the best like complimentary characters should.

Satou needs therapy. I mean all DC characters need therapy but when they're with the police, they need extra therapy because of what just nearly happened.

Also, thank you Megure for stopping that kiss. I like Satou and Takagi as a relationship, don't get me wrong, but trauma is not a good way to start a relationship. Much like how we said Ran latched onto Shinichi after facing grief after grief in NY, Satou is doing the same with Takagi in this moment, and it's really not a good base for a relationship.

Gagging again :p

🌸 = my roleplay petpeeve 🌻 = a character I wish to write with 🌷 = a song I identify with my character

Send me a symbol and I will tell you… || accepting

🌸 = my roleplay petpeeve

I am actually quite chill about most things, but... what I realized is that it makes me quite sad (not really angry, just... sad) that sometimes, when a muse, mine for example, is heavily canon-divergent and basically even AU, which I write down everywhere, it is still not... taken in, apparently? Not 'realized', in a way? Like, in my case for example as it has happened to me: Some people might follow and just see 'oh, yes, Khan Noonien Singh' and treat him as a canon character and don't see that I have written everywhere, literally, that my portrayal is not canon. And they write down things about Khan in the replies that do not apply to him as my portrayal, because he is not the canon one in my main verse and that immediately makes me go like 'ah, did you.. read that I write literally everywhere that he is not canon in his main verse?'. Like I said, I am not angry but I am sometimes just feeling that pang of disappointment because I put a lot of work in my muse and I am so delighted when someone wants to interact with him, and then his information is basically... ignored? In favor for a canon portrayal that I only do on request. So yeah. I'm not hinting at anyone on here or at anything that has happened, neither am I vague-ing in any way. I am just saying that it has happened, but I am always open to communication and I am also not really angry as said, and I am chill when it's getting talked about and then it's fine. We all aren't perfect and I don't expect anyone to be and I make plenty mistakes myself and am sure I have accidentally written something that sucked (in many ways)... but still. It makes me sad when I see not even the smal 'hey just so be aware he is not canon' text in my pinned is read you know? ---ANYWAYS sorry for this long text haha.

🌻 = a character I wish to write with

Honestly I was so pumped to write with a Ste.phe.n Str.ange and I got to write with him and I am beyond happy. Very happy, yes. Delighted. I am enjoying my experience immensely with every single one. Besides him, I... well, I do write with some Leo.nar.d Mc.Co.y portrayals but I wished I was like. You know. 'more actively' writing with him. I love him, I write him myself (lol), but I would be pumped if I had more of him to write more extensively with. Generally spoken, I am so glad to be able to write with any character I've met so far and have interactions going with. I am just thankful for people to write with my portrayal and I cannot say that enough I feel. Thank you everyone. All of you. So much.

🌷 = a song I identify with my character

This song is one of my absolute top tier Khan songs, it applies both to Khan in my main verse but also a lot to the canon portrayal. But it's just Khan for me and I love it, like, literally, THE Khan song for me atm. It always gives me the chills and biggest muse and feelings. Someone even made a Khan Video Edit with it and I am so glad lol. [Ready Aim Fire - Imagine Dragons (Khan Tribute)]
