a movie........
Tumblr media
time for a rant that has been a looong time coming because
the FUCK??? NOOOOOOOOOOOO PLEASE NO NO NO PLEASE GOD IF YOU'RE OUT THERE NEVER LET THIS MOVIE SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY NEVER EVEN MENTION THAT SHOW EVER AGAIN IN MY PRESENCE it should fucking DIE and stay DEAD
the WORST fandom i've ever come across/been part of. everyone was so fucking braindead. god the bullying here was So Bad. vld fandom was the epitome of 'you can't enjoy what you like'. and the bullies were like, some of the most popular blogs here. the content creators (among others ofc) here were NASTY. the people making decent art were so fucking rude to almost anyone that didn't bow down to them and agree with their views on the show, sitting on their high horse like they were fucking gods or something when they were like, 17 or something. mind u voltron was a show about ugly transformers lions and a bunch of kids in space meant for 7 YEAR OLDS. like stfu it's not deep, it's not important. i get that this is the internet i really do but apparently everyone was a pedo and homophobic and racist and needed to be cancelled because they weren't pure angels. i hope the people who liked the show, both teens and adults alike, have grown up and learnt what those words actually mean and why you shouldn't just casually throw them around. i hated you all. u had to be so careful about what you said on here, it was like north korea or something. i remember how kids got bullied into deleting their harmless fanfics, the fucking voice actors got bullied on a daily basis, it was BAD. i remember i got hate for having shiro as my icon and the background was the bi flag colours. I AM BI. also, so what if i had headcanoned shiro as bi, you couldn't have stopped me or anyone else from thinking that, and also IT WOULD NOT HAVE MATTERED, HE'S FICTIONAL, HE'S JUST LINES AND PIXELS. i know this is going to shatter some of your worlds (or at least would have back then), but a random ass nobody on tumblr headcanoning a character as bi when said character is "actually" straight/gay/whatever is NOT going to affect irl queer people in any way, it does NOT have real life consequences. who gives a fuck. since when has the fandom given a shit about canon anyway? fuck you.
okay, i've been bitching about the fandom enough (no i haven't, there's no way you can ever bitch about the vld fandom enough). what about the actual show? well. once again it's meant for 7 year olds. who cares if it was good or not. i've seen seasons 1–6. i liked season 1, didn't really like anything after that since the show seemed to change so much. the first season kind of has a different vibe completely? idk how to explain it, it just kind of feels like the actual show and then the rest was just a long fanfic by someone who was in love with keith's character. but since i was watching the show with my sister who was 10 at the time, it was fine, otherwise i wouldn't have kept watching after seeing season 2 i don't think.
here are a few negative things about the show imo:
making keith the main character out of nowhere after s1 (where he definitely wasn't the main focus) was so dumb. god the showrunners loved keith sooo much, it was so stupid. keith was nooot a leader. whatever.
making keith the black paladin was also so fucking stupid my god. and yes, everyone here wanting LANCE to become the black paladin just because he was the fandom favourite (don't get me wrong, he was my fave too) was so fucking braindead too honestly. shiro or allura. no one else made any sense.
canon allurance SUUUCKED. like holy shit that was so bad and horribly written, even lotor and allura had a better love story and had waaay more chemistry (and their relationship ended badly, rightfully so). and NO klance was never ever ever going to be canon, you were so delusional. like lmaooo did we even watch the same show? i just really enjoyed their dynamic and that's why i shipped them together, whatever. but yeah, like i said the bullying here was disgusting and everyone was cancelled, great, klance seemed to be the only thing you were allowed to like so in that sense i was lucky.
everything they did with allura in the later seasons............ you know what? i'm not even going to start. because wtfffffffff, as a storyteller myself i ?????? what in the world were they thinking. but yeah whatever it does not matter.
the point of this post is that EW EW EWWWW FUCK THAT SHOW AND FUCK YOU, if you were in the voltron fandom in 2017/2018 i personally hate you

Toyota Corolla
Tumblr media
A/N: i don't know if any of this turns our weird, im tired of proofreading 😭✋️ also how do you make text gray, I'm sick of tumblr only giving me 7 generic ass text colors
warnings: none if you're okay with weirdos in a car
Chris x reader
Tumblr media
(Name) had a habit of holding Chris’ hand when she was scared. Sure, she did it with everyone she was comfortable with, but since Chris was her boyfriend, he was mostly on the receiving end of it.
Today was supposed to be a chill car video day. Matt had parked at a convenience store where they got snacks after buying McDonald's. (Name) was excited, she rarely ever got to be in a video with her boyfriend, especially not in the car videos. She was sat in Chris’ lap (his idea, not hers) in the front seat, right in front of the camera.
“Do we even know what we’re gonna talk about?” Chris asked, ketchup all over his fingers from his burger.
“We can talk about the fact that you eat like a fuckin’ two-year-old.” Nick retorted.
“We can talk about the fact that you’re a fuckin’ bitch,” Chris shot back as a gray Toyota Corolla that nobody noticed rolled past them in the back window.
“We can talk about the fact that your forehead is so greasy that you could probably cook that burger you’re eating on it!”
“We can talk about the fact that you always make fun of the way I look even though we’re triplets and we all look the exact same! We can talk about the fact that I can actually pull and you can’t, we can talk about the fact that you’re always so fuckin’ loud that I can hear you from 5 states away, We can talk about–”
“So how was your day, Matthew?” (Name) asked in an attempt to tune out Chris and Nick, stifling a laugh as she ate more of the chicken nuggets she was sharing with Chris.
Matt simply just shook his head and continued to stare ahead, his small smirk and slightly trembling lips indicating that he knew if he opened his mouth the only thing that would come out is a big ol’ laugh. The sight of him fighting for his life made it that much harder for her to do the same.
(Name) absentmindedly looked into the camera’s viewfinder, only to see a gray Toyota Corolla roll past again.
“Another gray Toyota? Must be popular in this part of LA,” she noted in thought before quickly forgetting about it.
By now, Nick and Chris were done with their argument, it was Matt’s turn to speak, and the topic had changed to something else. (Name) just kept on eating, not necessarily adding much to the conversation.
“Well I feel like if I were to do that people would say it’s weird or *air quotes* ‘out of character’ *end air quotes* but everyone just expects Chris to be a protective boyfriend I guess?”
“Oh fuck yeah, don’t touch my girlfriend.” Chris said nonchalantly, taking a long sip of his Pepsi.
“Oh wow, how tough are you? Watch out everybody, we got fuckin’ Mike Tyson the second on our hands,” Matt mocked.
"Oh you think I'm tryin' to act tough? Come fuck with my girlfriend and find out."
Before Matt could even respond, the gray Toyota rolled past again. And (Name) was sure it was the same one. She immediately grabbed and squeezed Chris’ hand, and he clocked her fear just as fast.
“What’s wrong, (Nickname)?” he announced, rather than asked, all the attention in the van now her.
“That gray car drove past us like three times..”
“Are you sure it’s not a diff–”
“No, it’s the same one!”
Matt tried dismissing her concerns, “Maybe they’re just lost, don’t overrea–”
“Matt I love you, but do not piss me off. Nothing grinds my gears more than when I’m scared, worried, or concerned and somebody tries to tell me that I’m overreacting.”
As she was finishing up her rant, the car came back, but instead of lazily rolling away like it did the past three times, it came to a full stop right behind the van for a split second before speeding off.
Matt turns back to (Name), his expression now mirroring her fearful one.
“You were right, that was so fucking weird..”
Nick was still staring out the back window and was the first one to see the gray Toyota coming back into the parking lot and as soon as he did, he immediately flipped off all the interior lights.
“Is it coming back?” Chris asked.
“Yes dummy, that’s why I turned off the lights.”
“Guys, not right now, please.” (Name) said, stopping them before they could start.
The car stopped right behind the van again and for a longer period, 10 seconds, and then parked right next to the van, triggering the fight, flight, or freeze response from everyone.
Nick immediately pulled (Name) off Chris’ lap and into the middle row with him. In the process, he knocked multiple things over, including the camera, prompting Matt, Chris, and (Name) to yell his name in irritation.
“Yeah fuck no, that’s it for tonight, I love you all so much, thank you for watching– Matt kiss the camera, (Name) get back in your seat–”
“Why did you do that?!” (Name) yelled, still on the floor.
Matt started the car, kissed the camera, ended the video, and peeled out of the parking lot before anyone was even buckled in and before (Name) was even seated.
“Matt what the fuck are you doing I’m still on the floor!”
“Well then you’re either stayin’ there or gettin’ up cuz I’m not slowin’ down!”
“Hey, stop!” Chris exclaimed. “And besides, you’re goin’ like 42,000 in a 55 so you’re gonna slow the fuck down unless you wanna get pulled over or get us all wrapped around a fuckin’ tree.”
Matt slowed down without saying a word, clearly annoyed.
“Yeah, that’s what I fuckin’ thought.”
“Shut up, Chris.”
Chris ignored his Mattitude (heehee) and turned around to make sure his girlfriend was seated and buckled in and as soon as she was, he took her hand and turned back to the road ahead, kissing it ever so often.
“(Name), I pulled you up because I didn't think it was safe for you to get out of the car with that weirdo creeping around,” Nick finally answered the question that she forgot she even asked.
“Oh, thank you Nick..”
There was a long period of silence as everybody mentally processed whatever had just happened. How did things turn sour so quickly?
“Do you guys think we should stop doing car videos for now?” Matt asked after a while.
“Stop??? Bro, they’re our best videos our fans are gonna–”
“Chris, our well-being is more important than whatever the fuck our fans are gonna think. And if they really care about us then they'd rather see us be safe and comfortable.” Nick said, knowing he was absolutely correct.
“Yo you're right,” Chris smacked Nick's hand because the latter didn't open up his hand for a dap up. “Yes Matt, I think we should take a break.”
“Guys, make sure they're not following us,” (Name) said, all of them now scanning the rearview mirror to see if the van was being followed.
“There is a gray car, but it's an SUV so I think we're good,” she reassured.
The tension eased slightly as they spotted the SUV in the mirror, but no one fully relaxed. The memory of the Corolla’s strange behavior stayed with them.
“I never thought I'd be so happy to see a fucking SUV,” Nick said, causing everyone to laugh.
Chris turned around to look at (Name).
“You and I are having a self-care night.”
(Name) smiled softly. “What’s the plan?” she asked, the edge in her voice starting to dissipate.
“Anything you want. Face masks, movies, snacks, video games, literally anything”
Nick piped up immediately, “Can I join?”
Chris chuckled and took his girlfriend's hand once more.
“Ask your boyfriend.”

As an eruri shipper I wanted to thank you for your callout post. For nearly a year now I have gotten so much hate on my fics that I thought about deleting them, I haven't tho, thankfully. I found out about the spiteful troll and so I did my best to ignore it. However, the hateful comments my work was getting was beyond me because I hardly ever care what people ship or do and was simply minding my business writing what I like only to be told that I'm a jealous loser and I should stop writing Levi together with the "ugly bitch" (referring to Erwin) and that I should touch grass or slit my throat ... which?? And they made it sound like shipping Levi with a man was illegal or that the ship was inappropriate in some way.
I don't know who is really behind those hateful comments but if it's really her I hope karma hits her way very hard. Don't tell people to kill themselves over fiction EVER. That's common decency.
And about some eruris seeing you as an anti shipper. I'll admit I thought you were one as well. It didn't bother me as everyone is free to do whatever they want, but it's a pleasant surprise to know you actually like the ship and write fics for it. If anything, I admire how you can put your shipping goggles aside to write your analyses. It's very impressive.
Don't know if this is relevant but self shippers scare me a bit. Some of them have mean girls energy and I don't want to be attacked so that's why I'm staying on anon🙏🏻
First of all, let me truly thank you from the bottom of my heart for reaching out. It means the world to me, and I admire you for sharing your experience too. I'm super glad to hear that you didn't let the person leaving hateful comments on your stories drive you to delete them. I understand completely where you're coming from, as I've deleted stories of mine in the past due to an overabundance of negative comments. But I've never had anyone actually leave me death threats, or wish for harm to befall me on any of my stories, and to do that is truly the lowest of the low. Not just because it's over something as harmless as a piece of fictional writing, but just in general, it's never okay to wish harm on someone who's never harmed anyone else, or over something as ridiculous as a disagreement.
And yes, given what I've seen from this person on twitter, claiming Erwin is some "old man", they seem to think shipping him and Levi is tantamount to pedophilia, which is so absurd it doesn't even warrant a response. Erwin is at most maybe 5 years older than Levi? If even? They're both in their 30s. Shipping them is totally normal and healthy, lol.
I just think this person has some sort of raging, disgusting prejudice against gay relationships, and they view all gay relationships as perverse in some way. It's truly their problem, not anyone else's. I don't know either if it's the same person I got into an argument with here on tumblr, but so much of the language is the same, and the things they say are so similar to what was being said on twitter and a03, that I'm more than inclined to believe it is the same person. I can only hope my post helps inform more people about them and what a toxic, horrible person they are. Hopefully it will lead to them being blocked so that it isn't so easy for them to harass others. Though I already know they have multiple accounts here on tumblr, since they saw my post and started ranting about it on their blog, even though I had them blocked.
It also means the world to me to know that I've been able to clear up with you my stance on eruri and shipping in general. That was big of you to not be bothered by me when you did think I was an anti, but I'm glad I was able to show you that I'm not. I'm really, really not, lol. I love eruri. It's my favorite ship, and all my favorite AoT fanfics are eruri fics, lol. You can find comments I've left on too many to count at this point. I just try to keep it out of discussions which focus on "Attack on Titan" itself and Levi's role within the story, because I just don't see his relationship with Erwin in canon as romantic. I just think you have to keep the ship separate from canon because if you're going into an analysis of the narrative and Levi's or Erwin's role in it with some preconceived idea that their relationship is romantic in nature, then that's going to color one's ability to objectively analyze the motivations and the reasoning behind both Levi's and Erwin's actions. But I was never, ever against the ship, or against the idea of them being shipped. I think I got the reputation of being an anti because for a long time, I was being inundated with anon asks basically accusing me of being homophobic for saying eruri isn't canon, or anon asks trying to "prove" to me that it is canon and then getting angry at me when I disagreed, or when I lost my patience with them for simply not accepting my stance on this issue. And I think this small group of people then went around to other eruri's and spread to them that I was some sort of aggressive eruri hater. But again, I never was and never will be. I talk more about Levi's relationship with Erwin than any other character, and I find their canon relationship to be incredibly moving and powerful, and further, I love Erwin as a character. One thing I hope all of this will also do is make it clear to other eruri shippers that I'm not against them or their ship at all. I really don't want to be anyone's enemy, least of all eruri shippers. That was never something I set out to do, haha.
But yes, I'm right there with you regarding some self-shippers. Obviously, most of them aren't like this person. Most of them are normal and understand what they write and do is just for fun. But after "Bad Boy" came out, it seemed like the most push back against analysis of that story and its implications came from the self-shipping community, particularly people that seem to actually labor under some sort of delusion of actually, truly being with Levi in a romantic, sexual relationship. I don't understand that at all, because Levi isn't real, lol.
But they seem to get so upset at any discussion of Levi's trauma, or of Levi being affected by his trauma, because acknowledging that trauma and the impact its had on him ruins whatever fantasy, dom-daddy version of Levi it is that they've concocted in their heads. They like to claim Levi is some hard-ass, stoic, unaffected, domineering sex god, because that's what turns them on, and any discussion about what the actual reality of Levi's sexuality would likely be, due to the sexual trauma he's been exposed to, needs to be shut down, because it ruins the fantasy they have. They can't claim that the way they characterize Levi is objective or accurate to canon if Levi's sensitivity or vulnerability as a person is acknowledged, so they like to claim he's not affected at all by his past trauma, that he's just too hardcore to ever succumb to or be profoundly impacted by the things he's lived through. They like to imagine he's just come out the other side totally a-okay and that his stoicism and rudeness is 100% just a product of him being kind of a mean person, again, because they like the idea of being treated meanly by him in a sexual setting.
But Levi isn't a mean person, at all. He's literally the opposite of mean. He's the most thoughtful and considerate character in the series, constantly going out of his way to express his gratitude and ease the suffering of others. He's just awkward, like Dimo Reeves says, and isn't good at filtering his words or expressing himself. That some of these people refuse to acknowledge that the way Levi grew up, the environment he grew up in and the way he was raised, didn't have an impact on his ability to navigate social situations is patently absurd and stupidly unrealistic. It also undermines the severity of abuse Levi suffered in his upbringing, to deny that it had any sort of negative or harmful impact on his ability to interact socially with others. He was raised by a serial killer, for Christ's sake, lol. He wasn't ever taught how to talk to people in a way that would make them more comfortable. He was only ever taught violence and how to kill by Kenny, and he was too young when his mother died to learn anything from her, and he was also abandoned and left on his own at the age of ten, in the most cutthroat, dangerous environment there is inside the walls, surrounded by criminals, rapist, murderers and human traffickers, as well as just desperate people who would resort to plenty of bad shit just to survive. He probably didn't have a single, normal social interaction in his life until he met Furlan and Isabel. I would like these people to explain to me, then, how it is they think that didn't have an impact on the way Levi interacts with others?
He's an exceptionally honest person, too, and he also isn't someone who's concerned with being well-liked, so he doesn't try to ingratiate himself to others by acting friendly. But Levi never sets out to hurt anyone's feelings. He isn't malicious or cruel. He just says what he's thinking and sometimes it comes out sounding unkind. And we see, when Levi realizes it, that he tries to explain himself, again, not because he wants to be liked, but because he doesn't actually ever intend to hurt anyone's feelings. This idea that Levi is a mean person is totally wrong.
Anyway, I went off on a bit of tangent there, lol. Sorry about that. But again I just want to reiterate how much I appreciate you reaching out like this! And don't let these freak shows get you down.

I know fandom people are, as a general rule, intense and often neurodivergent, I know I am, but wow. Let people like things and just block if you hate their take so much. My block list is massive on tumblr, discord, and it's getting longer and longer on AO3. I highly recommend it, it makes my life far more peaceful.
I hate how this one person I'm in like 4 servers with sees pretty much everything. Her takes are some of my least favourite I've ever seen in fandom period, and I find her obnoxious as hell on a personal level. So I just don't interact. She's literally not hurting me by having a good time writing her little fics and talking about the characters how she sees them. And she's not wrong either??? We're different people, from different counties, different ages, and have totally different experiences. Her interpretation and takes are right to her, no matter how much I hate them. Just like mine are right to me. We can both have fun even if we're basically polar opposites
So many problems could be solved if people just stop giving a fuck what someone else has fun writing or doing when they're not hurting someone else. Like yeah it's annoying to be in a fandom where there's pages of coffee shop AU's or whatever, but at the end of the day, the people writing it are having fun and using fandom as an escape. Good for them.
I do get being pissed off and rant, and likewise know some fandoms are 'worse' than others, and that things in fandom come in waves. I've just noticed an uptick on people being, frankly, downright cruel because there's a fic they don't like updating frequently, or people in a server talking about a character in a way they don't agree with. It's annoying for sure, but it's just people having fun. Bitch in private like everyone else (or shout here I suppose lol).
If your fandom experience is genuinely ruined and your daily life is negatively impacted because some random person is enjoying it in a way you don't like, or writing the characters in a way you don't agree with, go touch grass. And before someone yells at me, I mean RUINED. I get annoyed all the time, that's just a part of it. I mean if someone's literally seething and their life in and out of fandom is effected by some random person having fun? It's time for a break

(CW: Swearing) Personal Thoughts
Evenin', just felt like typin' out some personal thoughts regardin' the 4 choices for next week's transformation event, particularly how Daddy would feel 'bout becoming any of 'em.
(IRL NOTE: These aren't my actual thoughts on each character AT ALL, they're just what myself in the Cartoon World thinks of all 4 picks, PLEASE keep that in mind)
(IRL NOTE #2: For the record, I don't actually hate the first character that much, it's the Cartoon World me who really hates her)
================================================
Endive (Chowder):
HELL NO! I hate her! I F*****G DESPISE her!!! I am genuinely APPALLED that anyone could like someone as atrocious as her!!!
I've been meaning to rant about how awful she is for months now, but the Tumblr guidelines keep censoring me, but I do not care anymore!
Sometimes I cannot believe that I enjoy Chowder as much as I do with her in it. Sure, several moments are hilarious, BUT NOT WHEN SHE'S ON THE F*****G SCREEN! I am BAFFLED that she got a good ending by marrying to Schnitzel! NO, she does not deserve that! That bitch deserves to be [TEXT REMOVED FOR BEING TOO VIOLENT] until she dies a HORRIBLE death, and even that wouldn't be enough to satisfy my hatred of her!!! Anyone who votes for her deserves to [TEXT REMOVED FOR BEING TOO VIOLENT]!!!! RATING: -500000000/10 *deep breath* Sorry, where was I?
2. Madame Flurrie (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door):
Now, I haven't played this game yet, but I know quite a lot about it, thanks to reviews online. Having said that, I'm not sure if I'd like to become her either. Based on her name, she's basically a cloud. Kinda sounds weird, doesn't it? However, it's possibly that it might feel different to what I'm imagining. Maybe being Madame Flurrie doesn't feel like being a cloud? Hey, you never know! Rating: 6.5 or 7/10
3. Ms. Flexi, AKA The Flexer Teacher (Mixels):
100% yes, she's absolutely my pick! Now, I've been told that turning into her would involve me becoming a simpler, but much plumper version of her. But of course, I wouldn't mind at all. A design like that is perfect. That teacher is BEAUTIFUL. I will proudly become her with my head held high. This is gonna be the best 21st Birthday ever!!! You all better vote for her OR ELSE!! Rating: 11/10
4. Toriel (Undertale):
I dunno, seems a bit too obvious. Sure, becoming someone like Toriel seems nice, and it helps if transforming into her helps me to learn how to cook better, but still. I'll put her as my 2nd place pick. I wouldn't mind becoming her if she gets the most votes, even though she's a pretty obvious choice. Rating: 8/10
================================================
Alright, y'all! See ya soon!

Albitch Ring Rant Post Part 2
Since I'm in a bad mood for whatever fucking reason, also Tumblr won't let me post Princess's ask, that's an actual cold hard truth, Imma do this instead 😁
And we already sound crazy already. So, let's drag this pretentious slut again, shall we..? Oh, and special thanks to 👸 for being bored, and once again bringing me stuff to fucking destroy this bitch with 🫶
So, remember when the timeline they made didn't make sense? Yeah, it'll continue to do so. Because her fan page posted this, four days ago.
Tumblr media
Now, I don't really care what this bitch does, as long as she doesn't make Chris look bad, in which case... LEMME AT HER!!! But if this is July 2020... Chris ain't there with her at all. Considering he was with Lily James in London! Remember that? Seemed like forever ago 😅
Tumblr media
So, if they're claiming something about the timeline in July 2020... They're fucking lying 🙄 again
Let's travel a little forward in time to yesterday 😁
So, we all saw Albitch rocking the dullest and most cheap ass ring you've ever seen, right? It gets worse much worse.
Tumblr media
Justin LD(lyme diseased) posted a shit ton of pics with Albitch. And that ring honestly looks even duller and pathetic in those, more than anything.
And we all know Albitch and Chris have zero chemistry whatsoever, props goes to the top comment on the post because it's so true, and sparked my belief that the bitch is sleeping with Justin 🤭
Tumblr media
And I honestly agree with the commenter at the top. They do look good together.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They both look equally perfectly AWFUL on the red carpet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
WTF is with the head tilt?! It stopped being cute 3000 articles ago, Albitch! And this isn't a prom! Why do those two look like they're taking prom pics?!
And bonus, if you look at this photo of LD story, Albitch looks like a horror movie ghost who does the jumpscares
Tumblr media
I see no difference 🤭🫣
Let's go back to the ring.
Someone posted on here a few weeks to months ago, that Chris was engaged during August...
See the problem with that timeline is that Albitch posted more pics with LD, and she was most definitely not wearing a ring then 👀
Tumblr media
Jump back to the present.
Imma go back to her solo pics again. We've all seen them, no need to reiterate, see the thing is, for some reason, another fan page of hers got a more HD and clear photo of the ring...
Tumblr media
How in the hell did they get that?! But not her Agency 👀
This is the part where I call two rings, and she used Photoshop again!
And can y'all stop saying that her ring is gold, it clearly fucking isn't!!! Unless y'all are colorblind that's white gold or silver!
Now, as for the two rings the one in the picture we saw is definitely not that one.
Tumblr media
That ring still looks silver or white gold, but has a round stone with nothing surrounding it, and is dull compared to everything else she's wearing. Meanwhile the new pic, square stone, with stones on the band...
This is where I call BULLSHIT
Those two pictures look as different as Chris does in the Lisbon old-new photos! So, in conclusion, somebody photoshopped it in, and chose a completely different equally cheap ring, and made it shiny 😒
Seriously, this is getting tired, and I'm sorry but Albitch and her entourage of wannabe influencers should just quit.
No one will believe her because she's been lying from the get go. Aside from that, if she and Chris are real, it means she's been openly cheating on him since before they were ever official. And Chris flirts with women, and tells the whole world he's single, and looking for a serious partner.
Again, at this point, Dodger and the kids are the only innocents. Who need to be protected from all this. Because another bomb will drop, and we will lose more of the Fandom than we did when NYCC happened. 😞

Alright fuck it y’all are getting a drone post. I’m gonna spew my recent hyperfixation because it’s tumblr and where else would I. Anyway I don’t sincerely believe aliens are going to invade, but I collect conspiracy theories like baseball cards and I have no one else to talk about them to.
There are two objects we will be covering.
1. The drones (and briefly the drones)
2. The orbs
The orbs were spotted first almost over a year ago in Virginia, USA. Quickly forgotten about. The drone swarms have been happening in New Jersey USA for almost 3 months now, the police have gotten over 3,000 calls about them. Then there was an orb that appeared hovering feet off the runway at a uk air base. Then the drones came after. An orb appeared recently in New York I think, and then the drones appeared.
So here’s my theory. The drones are ours. They aren’t foreign tech. We shot the Chinese weather balloon down within a week, and it was…it was a fuckin balloon. Oooh scary. Ahem. For some reason, the USA is not revealing what these drones are. We (royal we) have said we don’t know what they are but ‘they aren’t a threat’. Of course, how the heck do we know *that* if we don’t know what they are? (Also pls note the USA is not a stranger to experimenting on their own communities of people so this could just be a really weird test)
Then there was a statement released a few days ago that the uap sightings had ‘included’ drones (military and civilian) and planes (military and civilian). But the included is really getting me. Okay, so those were in the list. WHAT ELSE WAS ON THE LIST what else is included??? The fast drones that pilots have seen over the ocean are from the secret alien facility in the ocean from that 4chan leak. (Kinda think it’s got some heft kinda don’t, anyway I don’t pay much mind to it but it’s a fun one)
Anyway. So yes, we aren’t shooting the drones down because they are ours and they are monitoring the orbs. Now, the orbs. Those bitches crazy! Fast, weirdly so. Able to incapacitate drones that fly within a specific radius of it, either shooting them up into the sky so they lose contact and plummet or they just catch on fire and plummet. And the USA/UK hasn’t shot the orbs down because they don’t want to anger the orbs owners, whether it’s aliens or another country (however my favorite theory is that we haven’t shot them down because we can’t. they can’t be destroyed). (Note: if the ocean lab *is* related then the tinier drones are the USA’s and the bigger, flat sedan-ish type drones are theirs but again, that feels like too much string connecting. Feel free to input your own opinion if you’ve made it this far you fucking champion and my new best friend. Anon is on if shy.
Also might be unrelated but we’ve had weird ufo/uap sightings every time nuclear material was lost (don’t fucking ask me how that happens I have no idea), and some was recently lost on the east coast of the states. But anyway I have no one to rant about this to.

Long ranting post about unhinged bg3 fans harassing other fans. Skip if you don’t care.
Second post I see today of other people targeted by some unhinged people in bg3 fandom with a moral superiority complex.
Dude. This is not a crusade. We’re in tumblr. Let’s get over ourselves a bit, shall we.
And, so far, aside from some backlash to problematic and shitty mods in Nexus, I’ve only seen people being harassed by frothing “fans” for things that are project onto them - not for things that were truly said and done. It’s been wild.
Some in this fandom need to learn how to read, how to contextualize and most of all, learn that the shit they wanna use to propel themselves onto their high horses is coming from inside the house. You’re projecting too much? Maybe it’s time to take a look at where that’s coming from.
Also, to these harassers: grow the fuck up. It’s a videogame and the characters are pixels. If someone doesn’t like a character, it doesn’t mean they hate the voice actor, what that character said, their gender, sexuality or whatever. It means they don’t like- guess what - the character. Period. Read what’s written, is my advice, and not more.
People have the right to care less or even straight up hate fictional characters. It doesn’t concern anyone but them. I f they wanna say so in a personal blog, it’s also fine. If it makes you MAD, there’s an unfollow and block buttons on this platform, and they’re free to be used.
The amount of utter shit I got from people straight up LYING about what I said is nuts. What I say in MY blog, about what I think, and towards no one in particular. About a videogame. From people sending me unsolicited screenshots of decapitated Karlach, to unhinged flooding calling me a cunt over and over because I have my own opinions about what kind of character looks good with Astarion. It’s my blog, my opinion, my prerogative. Astarion is not a real person and not your boyfriend - and I’m not talking to you if you think he is.
I’m starting to think there’s a mob with a flag of moral superiority loose on tumblr looking for shit they can twist and flip to fit their angry narrative. Like a fake morality locust plague.
Let us remember we know nothing about who’s behind most blogs here, and sometimes we need to take a chill pill, then use the block button.
I know I do it. A LOT. It works. I never had to badmouth people because we disagree on a videogame, nor did I ever went to someone’s inbox to harass them.
You know the same shit we do with fake news and those moral panics of the 80s and shit? That we go after the source and figure what’s all about before raging wrong? Maybe it’s time we do the same with the shit being dropped by some people on others in this fandom. All times I’ve checked, people here or on twitter were being targeted FOR PETTY BS that someone else projected onto them, their work, their words.
Now, to my plague of locusts, who apparently still keeps tabs on me: I never deleted a post here, you morons. Go look for it if you’re so serious about this. Then read it again. If you knew how to fucking read you’d understand what words mean and what they don’t. You might not like me, or my taste, or me shipping Astarion with Karlach. But it doesn’t give you the right to lie about my views and values, to actively try to “sabotage” my work or whatever shit you thought you were doing. As someone else who was harassed here has said, I bet you’re all whiny white bitches who know shit about real struggle and prejudice, who need to push people down to feel good. Be better. Cause the way you’re acting, you’re no better than “even” me.

Dear Star Wars Fans
It's Hot Take time with El.
I am sooooooo fucking sick of seeing these "Weh, Star Wars sucks now posts" or "Disney keeps putting out the bad stuff and is RUINING MY CHILDHOOD" posts.
It's legitimately like I'm being transported back to the '90s/early 2000s forums where endless fanboys were whinging over Lucus ruining Star Wars with the prequels. And BTW, they have not stopped in the past 20 years. They will continue to be pedantic and toxic and generally pessimistic about everything.
So to come to Tumblr and see that same mentality being shoveled about like three pounds of horseshit that cross my dash at least once a day. And well, I'm grumpy enough this afternoon to go off.
Hot Take Point One: Just because YOU don't like a show or a series doesn't mean your opinion is the majority. There is someone out there who loves the season you're proclaiming is the worst thing ever. That character you detest is someone's special blorbo and the ship you despise is someone's OTP. And that is okay; their tastes are entirely valid, and your experience is not universal. You are not a peerless bastion of flawless good taste and the supreme authority on Star Wars. 
How do I know this? Cause you're on this hellsite and you like Star Wars. 
I'm not naive enough to expect people to not bitch about and complain about things they don't like, and honestly, you're allowed to do that. I encourage you to do it. I want people to keep in the back of their minds that it's their opinion and that it's not universal. And their opinion is no better than another person's. Even someone who you think has a shitty opinion or ships something 'problematic'. If you're going to proclaim someone else has dogshit taste, I would encourage you to look into the mirror and realize someone else thinks your tastes are dogshit as well. And fuck right off with canon is the only real and valid opinion. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES DISNEY HAS CHANGED CANON? They can't make up their fucking minds; nothing is set in stone, so just enjoy what you enjoy and let other people enjoy what they want. We're all here because we supposedly love this fandom, right? I feel like people have lost sight of that point. We're supposed to love Star Wars, and it should bring us together as a fandom, not tear us apart. But that's a rant for another day.
Hot Take Point Two: Have a little appreciation and respect for the people working on these shows. Unless you are in the industry or working on said show, you probably don't understand the amount of work, effort, blood, sweat, and tears that goes into making these things. Some of these people grew up dreaming about working on a Star Wars IP. This is probably a dream come true for a lot of people working on these shows, and you're pissing all over those dreams for popularity points on the internet like this is fucking Reddit, and you're farming for upvotes. No, it's not perfect; yes, there are going to be shitty VFX and cringe as fuck dialogue. 
It's not perfect, but they do their best with what they get handed. We had a saying in my old print shop, you can only shine up a turd so much. aka you take the shit you are given and you try and make it as polished and pretty as you can but at the end of the day you're working with the shit you were given. And I'm not saying these series are criticism proof or that you're not allowed to ridicule some of the terrible bad choices made.
I will go to my grave ranting about the ridiculous batshittery of fucking jetpack jousting in Mando S3. 
Hot Take Point Three: I will also argue that there are good elements in every new Star Wars IP released by House of Mouse. Yes, even the one you hate down the cockles of your black heart. I challenge you to shut out the noise from Tumblr, the bandwagon hating on something, and go in trying to find something you enjoy in a season or an episode. Find, say, 5 things you enjoy or a character (even a cringy one) or a set piece you visually find interesting. Maybe a funny joke or even a special effect so ridiculously stupid you can't help but laugh. (I'm looking at you Ahsoka fighting god damn fighters with a lightsaber while on top of the Ghost zooming around at full cruising speed. It's so utterly preposterous I can't help but laugh and shake my head all at the same time.)
You don't have to post about it or speak about it to anyone don't worry your friends don't need to know you might secretly enjoyed something you all 'hated'. Though I would also challenge you to actually speak about it as well because...hear me out here, you might find NEW PEOPLE who enjoyed those same things you might make more friends in the fandom, shocking I know. 
But just trying to FIND a positive thing in a show will give you a slightly more balanced relationship with how you consume it. Honestly, that's just general life advice you should try and take to heart. That's a freebie from your old Auntie El there. 
It's so easy to be a negative, pedantic fan who hates what we claim to love. But by making the conscious choice to find something good in this so-called pile of shit in front of you, maybe your relationship with the IP will be a happier one. If nothing else, you'll perhaps get sparked and remember what made you love Star Wars so much in the first place. 
So yeah, keep in mind your experience is not universal, even if you hate it, respect the time and effort it took to make it and try and find what sparked joy in you in the first place when interacting with the media. 
Oh, one other thing? 20 years from now? You're prolly going to look back on these shows you hate and find yourself nostalgic and maybe even a little apologetic for how much you dogged on this stuff because there will be a whole new cycle of brand new IP people are creating where people are proclaiming THAT is the worst shit ever made and they don't make Star Wars content like they used to. 
Cause that's just the human condition, and as someone who has been in this fandom for thirty years? I've seen that cycle replayed multiple times. We love the Prequels now, but twenty years ago, everyone hated them and thought they were ruining Star Wars. It doesn't get worse, it doesn't get better; we just grow older and learn to have a new perspective and learn to interact with the fandom in different ways. 
I'm just begging you, please stop being negative, toxicly pedantic fans who just sit there tearing down everything and learn to interact with the thing you claim to love with...actual love.

I bet yall( There's literally no yalI l have like 0 followers.)won't believe this, but I've got a new mf im obsessed with..... guess who???? it's tangerine from bullet train, bitch im literally sick🤪!!!. It's every couple of months with me I swear!!!! I'm such a lil weird ass freak in a good way of course. Like you all know that clip of Britney Broski, where she's fighting herself for being weird (here it is) https://youtu.be/o-uBYfodkDc?si=J-MZtcPSNXRDAJJO literally me. I'm such a weird ass freak in a bad way😮‍💨😕. "And then you get this picture, AND THEN I TAKE IT TO MY PENT HOUSE AND FREAK IT". Sorry, but does anyone else feel crazy guilt when they're reading these fan fictions abt characters, And then you're simping, and then you realize that this is actually a real person with a family. It literally makes me sick and wants to stop everything I'm doing. But alas, I'm a weird ass freak😈😛😉. I need to seek fuckin help. But anyway, aaron taylor johnson is so bbg( I absolutely despise that term, but I feel like it's fitting). And I wish him nothing but success on his acting journey and career path. By the way, yall please, please, please, please please check this video out on YouTube. I watched it literally yesterday, and I can't stop rewatching it. This is to all the Aaron Taylor Johnson girlys watch this video NOW. https://youtu.be/sQNJC1i4eDU?si=YxtLRlkBJe1-7JRa Also, I'm so sorry to all the writers whose notifs I've blown up, But yes, I have stalked your page. And yes, I have read every single one of your fan fictions about tangerine. Typing that out actually made me sick, and I needed to really start to re-evaluate myself. But this is really nothing new. I've gone through this like a million(3) times. Anyway, I'm here yet again to complain about the amount of fan fictions about this character.( I say this as if I haven't scoured the deep dark depth of tumblr to read every single fantic I can about him.) I'm such a flipping weirdo fr hashtag I need to do better and punch in the side of my head. By the way, I also wanted to add that like every time I make one of these post and I go to whatever tag to read more fanfics about whatever characters. I just cringe whenever I see my post, like I cringe extremely hard. But you know, I have Tumblr for a reason, and I want to vent so what better place right. And I just want to give a thank you to all the writers who have been fulfilling the deep dark hole that is my new obsession. Wishing you all nothing but luck and happiness. Thank you for reading my rant, autism diagnosis coming in soon🤗💋. Later when I come back to this post I will be so utterly humiliated I will delete it, so please enjoy reading, What might be one of the most humiliating things? I will ever put on the internet.🤳🏽👋🏽.

𖹭 // marry my husband appreciation post, because… I want to.
Tumblr media
We are going from the ending to the beginning of the drama, because i have so many screenshots, this is nothing, I have so much to say, and i don’t think, that one post is enough to put all the pictures here, so the posts will all be linked below, spoilers ahead, enjoy my happy rant!
Tumblr media
Look at them! And the painting behind them, it’s so beautiful, and gives cherry blossom vibes, I truly loved the ending, although the ending episodes got me a little on edge. Jiwon has changed so much, gone through so much and emerged out stronger than before. I loved to see her character development, it made worth it. She is the main character!!
Tumblr media
Her two kids, ah! The footprints, and the family motto -“Be each other’s sturdy land” isn’t it so heart touching? He wanted to her land, her stability, and that is what they taught their kids too! This was so sweet to watch.
Tumblr media
Look at them, having so much fun with their grandfather, and aunt! They are both so adorable and cute!
Tumblr media
“I want to be land” is so iconic, cute and adorable at the same time. I can’t get enough.
Tumblr media
Jiwon is walking forward in her life, she’s not the same person anymore, she’s become stronger, happier, and she’s walking forward in life with her biggest support : her husband, jihyuk ssi.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Their kid’s bedroom, the aesthetics, the baby cribes, the chair, shelves, books, photo frames, everything is so domestic, i’m a cancer, so please forgive if you see me babygirling about babies too much, perks of having a pregnancy kink, what else? 😂🤷🏻‍♀️
Tumblr media
Look at how happy inwoo looks, who the fuck said that this gorgeous green forest of a man is ugly? Where is the said ugliness??? I CAN’T WITH THE HATERS, THE UGLINESS IS IN YOUR FUCKING EYES, MOTHERFUCKERS, HE’S HANDSOME, FIGHT ME, HE’S SO PRETTY WHEN HE SMILES SBRKFO 🫶🏻🤌🏻
Tumblr media
Our heeyeon, she’s the most loveable character besides jiwon, look at that million dollar smile, and the way she’s thrusting the bouquet to eunho, I have more screenshots of them too, but Tumblr is a bitch for not letting me post more than nine pictures, so we’re gonna have to make another post. 😪😤
Heeyeon is so excited about food, jiwon, eunho, there’s just so much love within her, and eunho deserves to be loved too, these two definitely have chemistry, where she’s more bold, and we love to see that. She even makes him flustered, lol. She’s so adorable, i’ll wrap her up in my pocket and keep her safe, if I could!
That’s it for today’s post, two or three more posts for this drama, and then we’re saying goodbye to this wonderful drama that gave me tears, laughter so much that my tummy hurt, drama, angst, heart burn - slow burn, feels, heart touching moments, got to see jiwon & jihyuk’s babies!!!! (Excuse me, while i go gush over them both) I love this drama so much, i’ll rate it 10000/10 ⭐💕

Ok rant time cause i feel like it
Over the course of like, 1.5 years of livin in this dorm, and knowing mates from other dorms, I have noticed the three types of dormmate relationships:
The friendship! Yippee!!!
This gets struck up really nice with people who totally get each other and like, share classes properly. They gotta live in the same dorm apartment though. I might be friends with classmates from other dorms, cause we live at least an hour drive away from our home, but like its different from dormmate friendships. Best example is: My friends and classmates Lei and Lea (ill just call em that, not their real names) who struck up a nice friendship and totally vibe with each other, sharing stuff like Lea's fucking overstocked food and Leo's kitchen gadgets, bowls, cutlery and what else ngl. Like I wish i lived in their dorm wtf but also not cause then we gotta come to the second type...
The most toxic waste of space you will ever see-relationship
Eyo you ever have that one person who is so cruel, and mean, and just horrible? Yeah those can live in dorms with ya. And Lea and Lei happen to live with a bitch like that too (their dorm apartment houses 9-11 people on average btw. They all share a kitchen, a bathroom and a single washing machine. This is relevant.) So like Lei and Lea both share a dorm with Eve, and Eve omfg, an absolute horrible person. She doesnt clean up after herself, puts up dormrules like no tomorrow and fucking puts herself in the victim role constantly. Has come to a point where Lea has fucking, told the school and theyre currently working on a solution for it cause the school is being fucking stupid. Like damn Eve basically bullies and kinda psycho terrors Lea. The girls room is right next to the kitchen and the walls are thin af, and Eve is super incredibly loud on purpose. Always blames the others for shit she did and whatelse. Lea doesnt even like gettin outta her room man. Anyway, this was kinda a rant... Though now we come to the last type of relationship in a dorm. The one that i got with my own dormmates.
Ghost sightings on main-relations
I am what you call, "social anxiety af" which is funny for someone training to be a therapist. While everyone else sees each other on reg in their dorms, I spook around my three-person apartment dorm like a ghost. And ngl so do the other two. I can count on one hand the times ive seen my dormmate Ca this months and i have not seen Mal a single time this past month, but I can hear them scuttling like lil bugs. And who am I to blame when I did the same thing with my old two roomies Sar and Ann lmao. But genuinely, we're at a point where weve got an unanomous decision to let each other have the kitchen alone and only go there if its rlly important or if no one is in it. Btw Sar if you see this, I know you use tumblr ive seen your mcr shirt too. I liked ya as a dormmate, our sleep deprived 2am conversation gave me a will to go on when I felt fucked over by school. Youre a real one. I hope youre becomin a really cool speech therapist. And i hope the school resend your diploma lmao

I hate* my hair
okay pardon me if this incoming rant which is very much a soft traumadump sounds like that part of My Immortal where Ebony Darkness Dementia Raven Way whines about being too hot to handle and how it's sooo hard being hot and getting all the smexoi bi guys.
I know I'm definitely on the ace spectrum. I don't want a relationship. I don't want to ever have sex with another person. I have a sexuality all my own in my art that's not for anyone else but me and I don't know or care about what that means. All I know is that absolutely am repulsed by people hitting on me or saying I'm attractive. Yeah, even if you're also on the ace spectrum. I know I should be flattered but I'm not. I know a lot of people genuinely aren't creepy or are even saying they want me, but still. I'm creeped out by it. And I've been creeped out for a long time.
I'm introverted and kind of visibly autistic all my life, I mean if autism was visible. I also have blonde, naturally curly hair that's a bitch to manage and I don't know how to properly clean. And I have blue eyes. I look like a "perfect fairytale princess", according to people who see me. One of my family members even said I look like an ideal 'aryan' which is totally not distressing to hear especially when you're starting to realize in 2012-2013 how many real life neon@azis really are online and won't stop and see blonde women as needing to be saved.
People have been touching my hair without my permission for years. I legit found out about black people getting their hair 'petted' because years ago on tumblr, when I mentioned that happens with me, someone asked if I was black.
People have made non-serious but still creepy observations about my whiteness for years. Can we please go back to the blonde jokes and fear of white women invading Starbucks for PSLs. I have my limit with those comments too but I will take them all day over people thinking myself and women like me are any sort of ideal. You're sick. You're gross. Don't touch me.
I don't do my hair. No really I don't. I look like a less confident less orangey Miss Frizzle. No, I'm not trying to be black as a white girl; I really have this eternal Shirley Temple mop on my head. Every time someone says I should love my hair or comments how pretty and #striking it is, I wanna cut it all off.
It's for this reason that I don't show pictures of myself and especially not my hair online. I want to be recognized for my art and my writing. For my me-isms. Not for how I look. I legit wish I could be seen as my sona sometimes.
When I do take care of my hair, I want to do it for my own sake. I want to do it for my own happiness. I don't want to hate my hair. But I do, because you love it.

I don't often ever really talk about these things but like, does anyone else have MAJOR franchise fatigue?
Marvel, Star Wars, Disney, HARRY FUCKING POTTER
I am so done with them all.
I'm gonna rant about Harry Potter for a bit. Fair warning.
I got tired of Harry Potter well over 10 years ago. The final movies hadn't even been released and because I have the disadvantage of living in bloody England Harry Potter bullshit has been EVERYWHERE for TWO FUCKING DECADES. I remember my friend dragging me to the studio tour because she got tickets for her bday. I like movie BTS stuff but my god the amount of BUY THIS BUY THAT that gets shoved in your face drove me mad. Proud to say that other than the OG books I read when I was a teenager I have never owned a single bit of HP merchandise in my LIFE. It took my irl friends bullying me to finally go on pottermore and get sorted into a Hogwarts house when I was 27. TWENTYSEVEN. I resisted for years!! I don't even care. They sat me down and made me log on to that stupid website and take the stupid quiz whilst I raised an eyebrow the whole time and tried to smile and pretend it was fun. After all, I'm not actually a total bitch and they are my friends and were enjoying themselves and I didn't wanna upset them. But why do I need to know if I'm a hufflepuff or whatever? Oh thats right, so I can buy the appropriate MERCHANDISE.
You know real witches make their wands? They go out and find a tree and ask the tree if they can take a branch, you have to give the tree something back and say a blessing. You can add crystals or ribbon or whatever you want but a wand is NOT something you buy in a bloody shop. I hate that HP made kids think that.
Why would anyone wanna buy a game about a nearly 3 decade old franchise thats been shoved in all our faces practically our whole lives (if you are a millennial or younger). Im not a gamer anyway so I don't get the appeal but even without all the transphobia and antisemitism involved the whole concept is extremely tiresome to me.
Can we please be done with Harry Potter now??? I dont wanna see it. I dont wanna see anything about it. I didnt give a fuck when I was in my early twenties and I dont give a fuck now in my late thirties its never been any fucking good. Its a rip off of Lord of the rings crossed with the writing of Terry Pratchet and Neil Gaiman anyway.
For years I felt awkward even mentioning to people that I didnt like Harry Potter, like it was a cardinal sin or something. I'm glad people are finally seeing it for what it truly it, even though I wish it didnt take the lives and rights of transpeople to get to this point. Its disgusting that its still so damn popular even WITH JKRs blatant transphobia. I hope the boycotts work. Trans and Jewish people you have my love and support, for both your sakes and so that bloody franchise can stop being shoved in my face everytime I leave the bloody house. Im glad people are finally picking it apart and realising how problematic it was. Things I think made me uncomfortable about it before I really understood the depth of reasons why.
I have been obsessed with witchcraft and paganism since I was a child. I was a weird kid. Harry Potter turned something I was passionate about in a deeply personal way into a consumerist nightmare. Witch became synonymous with it, spells, charms, magic, I'm honestly surprised JKR didnt try to copyright the terms.
Look I dont often talk about social issues. My tumblr is my escape from the injustices of the world and I take my mental health very seriously. But I support trans and jewish people in boycotting this game.
I care about trans rights, about the rights of LGBTQA+ people. The rise of antisemitism AGAIN deeply disturbs me. People truly never learn from history do they? I try to do my bit where I can offline. I have signed petitions, I have donated to causes where I have found them and I am most definitely gonna do my damndest to get everyone I know to vote the transphobic (and otherwise generally evil in every way) Tory government OUT at the next election.
This rant may come across a bit selfish. It is tbh. I am fucking glad Harry Potter isnt popular anymore. Though outside of online communities particularly in the UK its still huge and everywhere. I wish we could wipe it off the face of the Earth.
I am fed up of all these franchises though. If I never have to sit through another Marvel movie it'll be a happy day. If I never have to hear the fucking Star Wars theme again I'll celebrate, if I never have to read about another Disney remake again Ill be so relieved (although I do get some satisfaction reading about them flopping). This post capitalism hellscape we exist in is fucking exhausting.
What we really need to do with these franchises though is pull an Avatar on them (the blue people not the cool cartoon). We need to stop talking about them. Stop letting them infect our collective cultural consciousness. The only way to get them out of our faces is to actually let them die. We did it right with Fantastic Beasts. We can do it again. Remember that in capitalism, even negative press is good press, and the more the press focuses on the controversies and discourse, the more the name of the game is getting into the minds of consumers, especially those that dont give a fuck about trans rights or antisemitism.
I dont know where it ends, but my god I hope it HAS an end. Something surely has got to give right? Anyways. I dunno if there was a point to this rant other than im fed up of a lot of things and feeling particularly grumpy today, but anyways. Boycott Harry Potter and all things related to it.
Support trans rights. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Enough of this bullshit already.
