(Yay! Just keep in mind that probably I won't stop yapping now, feel warned).
"The series does a great job of showing the gossip." absolutely, they managed to nail his character with one line what is very impressive.
On the other hand, forever sad they didn't explore his ancient history geek side. Him, blabbering about some ancient shit no one cares about, with rosy cheeks and excitement painted all over his face to Grant and Lipton? Hello...? Plus, didn't Buck talk about Romans and barbarians in Bastogne?
The whole (tv) Easy for the fandom is a company of sluts, so someone please play sad violin music for Matheson. Seriously, the power Ron had all over the people, lol. He knew what he was doing.
I mean, someone gave him a nickname "Sparky" and it stuck to him, so he had friends. Also, I know it was because of his "explosive" nature, but please, Sparky? Sparks are cute and make me think about something cozy (I can feel him throwing daggers at me from afterlife right now).
it looks somehow like a normal thing - some really liked him, some were neutral, some hated him. It was a bunch of more than 100 males after all, so characters collied. It seems even Winters didn't have 100% of fangirls there.
Anyway, sometimes, in the middle of the night I wonder when Winters started to call him Sparky and if it was why Talbert was butthurt.
The German uniform's case is hilarious because he just played along and could have not acted better (shoot him? without even rising his head? King). Again, sad we didn't get the scene in the show, especially because from bts it seems they dressed Martin as the German.
Poor Webster. It looks like he romanticized some stuff in his book and there was Ron "Ok, Webster rings a bell but... uhm...." Speirs.
Anyway, as for a dude who was called Sparky, he seemed to be rather chill.
Oooh and Buck was at his wedding. Maybe that's how he got an invite? I think there was a wedding for a Sgt in Easy the same day that Dick went to. Or maybe it was because Buck was hanging out with his UCLA buddy Matheson at HQ and somehow got lumped in with Moose on the Speirs wedding invitation list? History nerds should have gone to museums with Lip and Smokey.
And I never really considered why Cann called him Sparky. I just thought it was random, these 1940s guys all have some cool nickname. Ron did light up in that letter when Dick called him Sparky like it was a great memory. Google really comes up with some fun ones for that 'lively' 'energetic' 'clever' 'term of endearment towards a guy'....I mean let the imagination run wild. Maybe it just rolled off the tongue well- Sparky Speirs.
Yeah, as much as they did and went through they were still a bunch of 20 something year old guys. What else do you do but talk shit? Sometimes it hurts too much to talk about home. So we have this guy who is weird and crazy and doing bad-ass shit and everyone is talking about him. Everyone knows about him. Nobody says "Speirs who?". Or "Why do you need to take ammo from the Germans? They don't have .45 cal ammo or 30-06?" as Sparky walks into the Rhine and tosses his towel on the shore.
I do want to get my hands on the interview where Ambrose talks to Lip about Speirs. Because there is probably way more than "He came to cry on my bed the first time he got drunk". Carwood, please, there is way more you are not telling us. The man is billeted with you (his first sergeant and not any of the Lts?), comes to you when the officers get him drunk and ruin his life, gets YOU drunk for the first time in your life while trying to save you from pneumonia, you know exactly when the last reunion he attended was and 'he told me I was going to be promoted so that was +1 friend points'. And there is no way the Lipton episode wasn't entirely pulled from Lipton himself, especially when Wahlberg was calling him everyday to talk about how to play it.
I also want to know what his beef was with Billy Turner.
We need all the gossip from Charlie Co and Dog.

I will say, though, people used to be way meaner about fic online when I was a kid. Readers can still be shitty, don't get me wrong, but it was the wild fucking west when I was young and new to fandom.
Sporking communities (communities dedicated to going through fic line-by-line to make fun of it to an audience), homophobic death threats, "constructive criticism" that was really just designed to hurt young writers' feelings... Like this was all considered not just acceptable but fun and fairly normalized. You were considered "butthurt" if this stuff really affected you.
But damn, it was so mean. Like so unnecessarily mean. People were practically hunting fan writers for sport just because they wrote fic/meta/roleplays/etc. that they didn't enjoy. I cannot overemphasize that making fun of writers was considered a viable fandom path at a certain point. Some people got very big followings for sporkings, takedowns, particularly creative flames, etc.
What I'm telling you is that making fun of others' writing was considered a kind of fanwork in and of itself.
Like... I remember writing something online when I was about fourteen and -- I don't even remember what it was, being honest with you. It probably wasn't very good, given my age. But I do remember that someone just replied to it with a link for a website "how to write" and nothing else, and it hurt my feelings so badly that I didn't even want to keep going. That was considered concrit back then, even though it was really just a thinly veiled insult. Pretty sure whoever wrote that comment thought it was hilarious, and others would have agreed with them. I definitely would've been mocked if I'd complained.
And... that was just what you had to put up with if you posted your writing publicly. Some of those old warnings like "flames will be used to make s'mores!" come off as kind of cringe these days, but it really was a coping mechanism that you had to develop if you wanted to get through it at all. It was saying "your words won't hurt me, so don't bother."
Like... I like to believe that I'm a pretty good writer these days, and I can guarantee that not one of those assholes who made fun of me or mocked my work or talked shit about my ideas actually helped to make me what I am today. It was the people who encouraged me to play with a lot of different ideas and forms of writing who really helped me grow. Nothing worked better than just writing and writing and writing without fear that I would be punished for doing so.
So even if you're a garbage person who likes to hurt people because it makes you feel big and strong and important, think about all this pragmatically. Be totally fucking selfish for a minute. Think about all of the good writing you will never, ever get to read if you destroy the writer's self-esteem when they're still learning. Think about all the people who will never grow. All the beautiful flowers that are being nipped in the bud every day by assholes like you.
And even if someone never gets good, even if they just splash around in stupid ideas and awful prose and incoherent characterization... so fucking what? No one owes you beauty. Sometimes the beauty is just in having fun with what you're doing, and sometimes that's enough.
I am actually extremely relieved that fandom isn't quite as cruel as it was when I was a kid, but I won't pretend that things are perfect now. People still have this weird entitlement to them, like other people in fandom only exist to create things that they enjoy. Like other people only have worth, only matter, if their presence gives you exactly what you want when you want it.
You don't have to like everything that other people make! You don't even have to like them. But come on, now. Let people have fun. And don't act like other people's fun is only valid if it's of use to you.
#vent post#also jesus CHRIST was fandom homophobic back then#you could only post slash on certain sites and even there you'd often get hate mail#I never got sporked to my knowledge thank god#that would have DEVASTATED me as a teenager#but boy were people shitty to me on a now-defunct (thank god) anon meme a little later#like literally it devolved from people who didn't like my writing to people gossiping about me being CSA'd#because '00s fandom was fuckin brutal#and I do not miss it#see also: why I abandoned my old username many years ago lmao#anyway I actually blocked someone only a few years ago for sharing links to sporking communities in the comments of my tumblr posts#after I specifically said I wouldn't name any because I thought they were shitty#don't let the door hit you on the way out asshole#so I guess some people are still into that shit

No, Iām with the first anon. You publish asks telling you to hurt yourself all the time, but someone told you to stop engaging, tried to help because you THREATENED TO HURT YOURSELF, and you shot them down and tell them theyāre acting like a saint. It isnāt healthy or a good look.
You donāt even have to answer this. You probably wonāt. But I do hope you work on your wellbeing.
And again, you misunderstand the point I'm making.
I get where they're coming from, I know where they're coming from and I've already done then things advised. The last message I responded to with the shit was YESTERDAY. I've been posting other things to take my mind OFF of the drama.
You're not making yourself feel or sound better either, and rather than coming here to say that, SPECIFY, because again; I've already done what was said to me. You and that anon aren't the first people to do so.
I ignored their first message for a REASON. I've already done those things. But to come back acting like that is just baffling and furthermore annoying.
My best friend already told me that I needed to stop encouraging it, which I've done. I've cleared out anything related to the business, and that's it, I'm moving on to my own business with writing.
I'm not sure how many times I've had to repeat that I'm AWARE. If you checked the dates and times of the posts, you'd know that the last one was from YESTERDAY and NOT today.
You and first anon are confusing me still. Haven't you seen there's no other messages regarding the death threats?? Aren't you aware there's nothing posted recently because I know that's what they want? They WANT attention??
I'm trying to ignore the problem, but you and the first anon are bringing it up to prove some point that makes no sense. Listen, come off anon, then lecture me.
I KNOW. Believe me, I'm aware. I know that entertaining it is only going to bring problems for me.
I'm trying to actively ignore the problem, so if you're going to bring it up again, I'm going to delete your ask. Please stop repeating the same things over and over again because I've already done it and I'm moving on. I'm trying to keep what little of my sanity I've got left in peace. All you and first anon are doing are just reminding me.
You're just actively looking for problems at this point. If you can show me when the last recent post I've made answering any of the death threats or anons today, show me it, PLEASE. Because yesterday was the last time.
And, again. If you're referring to the dbz anon, chill, that's not hating. If you're referring to me reblogging my friend's post, if you read what I said, you'll know I didn't mention anything about harming myself because I KNOW.
Genuinely at this point this whole thing is a big fat joke. A lot of people are getting pulled in for no reason, but some people are TRYING to get pulled in.
Anon, you and first anon need to look through my account properly. And I mean, LOOK THROUGH IT. You see a few posts some people reblogged and IMMEDIATELY come to give repeated advise without context.
Adding this below here for everything in general; no I'm not suicidal, but also, even if I was and something were to happen, please genuinely stop acting like you would care. You're just some guy who came from someone's acc reblogging my post ready to jump in for no reason, it's super annoying.
I don't like this shit anymore than anyone else. Sometimes entertaining them is funny. I answered some of the other anons with funny memes or some shit just because trolling them is fun. Others I've deleted.
Dude. You guys are just bringing up a topic I'm actively trying to ignore. Giving me advice like this is only making me more annoyed and more butthurt. Yes, really. My method of coping is actively ignoring something. I've posted sooo many things and planned on reblogging all my fics to the top to ignore it.
I'm not a good person, never said I was, nor do I try to be. In the end of the day, I'm aware that the only person to blame is me. I'm upset my friends and others are getting yanked into the situation, but aside from that I know this is all my fault. From the beginning to the end, I KNOW. This was my shit, and I'll handle it by myself, either through committing, memes or something.
But you're genuinely just some stranger on the internet and quite frankly, you need to put yourself in my situation. I don't know you, or the other anons, why would I care to listen to you? I'm not obliged to, why do you persist on it?
If you bother to read this, then holy shit please understand. I never said the advice was bad. If anything, if you read anything properly but my tags, you would know I appreciate it even. It's silly but I like when people give me advice. What I don't like is when people repeat it constantly without explaining much less actually listening to what I say.
What's driving me insane is that you're still not listening. You're still not listening and holy fuck am I close to tears with this shit. Please, READ PROPERLY. Oh my god, it's genuinely not that hard for you to actively read, and process what I'm trying to say.
Over and over again, over and over. If it's not you fucking anons, it's my parents and if it's not my parents it's the police and if it's not the police it's someone else oh my god please LISTEN. LISTEN TO WHAT I'M SAYING. I'M NOT TRYING TO FABRICATE SOME SHIT STORY, JUST LISTEN TO ME FOR ONCE LISTEN. STOP TELLING ME I'M LYING STOP FUCKING TREATING ME LIKE I DON'T KNOW WHAT IM TALKING SBOUT STOP IT STOP

Lmao if you were really that unbothered you wouldn't be responding and trying so desperately to convince everyone you're unbothered. You would just ignore and move on lol. You're actually so triggered and butthurt at aall the true things we said that you have to put on a face like you're "unbothered" when we're just laughing at YOU and your degenerate loser online "friends" who read and write porn fanfic about men being obsessed with them because they're too gross and pathetic to get irl men to like them and they're so hopelessly insecure and lonely they have to cope with what they lack in life by fantasizing about men obsessively stalking them. You literally admit this in your posts too š¤£ that the appeal of yandere for you is because you're so disgusting and ugly no irl man would actually want you and the idea that someone desires you so much they would stalk and rape you makes you feel better š¤£ like you literally said that. That shit is so degenerate and pathetic man š¤£ tell any normal person that and they would think you were a sad perverted loser creep and probably avoid you. You are the most depraved cringey group of losers on the entire internet š¤£ why the fuck would anyone care what you basement dwellers think? All those "friends" you apparently madr are just equally as degenerate nobodies who compensate for their severe crippling loneliness and insecurities by writing their depraved stalker fantasies, and you'll never meet them irl or anything so they're hardly real friends. Outside of an obscure tumblr fetish porn community you're still a friendless loser. You still habitually get into drama and make people hate you at EVERY job you have. Your family still hates you for your toxic and manipulative behavior and angry outbursts, like didn't you literally smash a tv in a fit of rage earlier this year? Genuinely so unhinged and dangerous, if you had roommates they would evict you if not call the cops on you and have you arrested for that violent shit. You've still never had a bf or partner and never will. You're still a poor drug addict who can't keep a job. When you step away from your computer screen your stalker porno "friends" mean less than nothing. You're still a loser with nothing to show for yourself at 27 despite having a small size stalker porn blog. We know you know this š¤£ we know you think about it every day and trying to actunbothered is knly highlighting how botbered you are
Also your mate said that you were spending heaps of time ruminating over your wrinkles because of us and in geberal your responses are so clearly bothered by all of this. The only reason we kept it going so long was that we kept getting hilarious over the top reactions from you. Like you literally threatened suicide and self harm once š¤£ you've taken the bait SO MANY TIMES you're so easy to trigger and you acting like you're not is such a transparent
Imagine trying to act like you aren't having a complete mental breakdown when you are literally writing PARAGRAPHS that aren't even properly spaced. Yall think anyone is gonna read all that shit for any other reason than to make fun of you. Homie you are MALDING right now, you are TRIGGERED mad

I'm just going to get this out of the way...
All you ever do is ignore the obvious and just flat out insult people who were never in the wrong with a dumb meme. (I mean, memes are funny, but not your's)
People have different opinions on comics and the games and that's okay. You can't just be a hardass to Sonic fans who like media or characters you don't like.
Like, I follow people who don't like Sonamy but do I bash on them because of that? Uhhh, no. I don't. Because I respect other people's different opinions, despite the fact it's not like mine.
You, however, do not. And that is sad.
Also?? I am convinced you are homophobic, because I just noticed you didn't bring up the fact Tangle and Whisper are a thing now. Knowing you, I should've known that that was the case.
Sorry for being honest, I guess, but you're probably the most butthurt person in this hellsite. I didn't make my blog just to see your dumb posts about you criticising fans and people who work at SEGA who are doing their job.
If your life is based on constantly ignoring valid points or looking at the negative side of things in the fandom or being snarky and rude to people who just simply disagree with you, there's a good reason why a lot of people block you.
I hate to disappoint you, but unfortunately, you're an asshole.
I tried so hard not to get in your way, but your posts have been bothering me every time I look up Sonic's name because I want to see funny posts, cool fanart and all that awesome jazz.
You are just one of those people who drains out all the fun and makes fun of the fandom for simply ENJOYING stuff that you don't.
I want you to understand that. I'm not here to attack, I'm just telling you how you make me feel.
You're the living embodiment of the No Fun Allowed panel from the Archie comics, and I don't think that you'll change for the better anytime soon.
Also, don't even think about responding with a meme or your usual: "I have no idea what the hell your talking about, therefore I'm right. Checkmate."
Cause that just proves you don't care.
I know you're reading this, but choose to think I'm wrong. I know, but I'm posting this to you anyways because maybe someday, you'll reconsider how you act towards certain people.
Or maybe you won't, and I'm certain at the second option.
Really sorry, but you're just not a good person.
Either leave the fandom or grow up, which ever comes last.
Credit where it's due, you're not being a punk-ass and going Anonymous. That said, your claims are full of more holes than a fine Swiss cheese.
ā¢ "All you do is ignore the obvious and insult people who were never in the wrong..."
You're making shit up. Have you SEEN the sorts of things I get in my inbox? Oh wait, of course you (supposedly) haven't. That would require admitting that the other side of a coin exists, and that these people you claim are "innocent"... simply aren't. The only ones "ignoring the obvious" are the jackasses who make shit up about the games they never played.
ā¢ "Memes are funny, but not your's"
There's no apostrophe in "yours". Next!
ā¢ "People have different opinions on the games and comics, and that's okay."
No shit, Sherlock. You say that, yet, whenever someone (ie folks like myself, @darklightheart, @crusherthedoctor, or @aquillis-main) lists any and all grievances or problems said comic has from our perspective (with reason), the fandom takes a defensive stance almost immediately and swarms our inboxes with their own brand of unsavory behavior... but said fans are "innocent" according to you, right?
ā¢ "Also, I'm convinced you're homophobic because I just noticed you didn't bring up the fact that Tangle & Whisper are a thing now."
Did you break your back and pull every single muscle in your body or something, because that's a goddamn massive leap of logic you just made based on literally nothing.
ā¢ "...you're probably the most butthurt person on this hellsite."
ā¢ "I didn't make my blog just to see you criticizing fans and people at SEGA who are doing their jobs."
No, you made your blog to cry your way into people's inboxes about people not doing it enough.
ā¢ "If your life is based on constantly ignoring valid points and looking at the negative side of things in the fandom..."
Like those so-called "innocent fans" who blow up the inboxes of multiple users on this site to do that very thing? Yeah, no. Try harder.
ā¢ "...your posts have been bothering me every time I look up Sonic's name..."
Translation:
ā¢ "I'm not here to attack..."
Could've fooled me.
ā¢ "...I'm posting this to you because maybe someday, you'll reconsider how you act towards certain people."
So, what you're saying is the next time soy boy stans like you bombard the inboxes of myself and other users for the express purpose of trying to silence other people's opinions, we're supposed to just acquiesce? Yeah no, you're living in a bubble.
ā¢ "Really sorry, but you're just not a good person."

Venting here since it won't affect people.
Honestly it's super annoying to see people get pissed that Sun and Moon may combine if the poll ties. Like yes, the poll should've probably just had them as one character from the get go since we have a hard time picking between the 2 and they're one body anyway. But like, the person running that didn't really think of that? So combining them was a fun compromise/reward for accomplishing a difficult challenge like tying a poll and they shouldn't be getting shit bc other people's faves aren't winning like. Ugh.
Also! The poll is just for fun? Getting butthurt that the some characters are more popular than other characters is so fucking childish like. Dude we are voting on fictional robots. I'm sorry yours didn't win but like. Get over it. Make your own poll idc.
Especially since it's likely they'd win regardless of if one or both moved on just bc the dca fandom is really big rn since the game came out recently and a lot of us latched on to them. So acting like they're "teaming up" and will "definitely win now" is such a weak argument when it's very apparent that most people who like one dca like both. I mean Moon is a bit more popular but there's no way that Moon beats Puppet/Springtrap but Sun doesn't yknow?
Specifically there was one person that pissed me off by going on about how the puppet protects children and the dca kidnaps and kills them and called it like, hypocritical or something? And honestly fuck off. The dca cares about kids they're just controlled by Afton. Same reason the other glamrocks go haywire. Same reason every other animatronic in the game goes haywire tbh. The puppet murders people too, even if it's not children. Every robot in this series is a murderer so trying to take a moral high ground about that is dumb.
I dunno, just really got my hackles up. But it's pretty clear they were just lashing out bc they're salty their emotional support robot was gonna lose to my emotional support robots and I can understand being attached to characters. I just think bitching at the poll creator and whining in the tags is being a poor sport and an ass.
If you go looking for who I'm talking about don't fucking bother them, fictional robots aren't worth starting actual drama over. I blocked em bc I don't want to see them bitch about my blorbos and that should be the end of it.
This was way longer than intended oops. Guess it bothered me more than I thought lmao. Ah well, this is why we have readmores š
#honestly now that I've bitched about it it'll stop bothering me#just had to rant#delete later#if i remember/feel like it#but also it's a personal blig so who cares lmao#final reminder to leave the person i vagued about out of it if you go looking#if I find out someone sent hate bc of a random rant I had I'll block the perpetrator#but thankfully I don't think I'm a big enough blog for that

Hoo boy. I love when people try to insult my intelligence, the only thing I have confidence in.
There is no "invalid" way to ship something. You can think someone's reasons are stupid, that doesn't make them invalid. If you think it does, I'm not sure you know what that word means.
You do realize egotism is also...pride? Egotism is more specific, but it's still an aspect of pride.
"Their humour is also different in its origin and purpose so the similarity ends at face value." Where does it say or even imply that literally anywhere? And when it comes to humor, what does "origin" have to do with any of that?
"Their fake smiles are also for very very different reasons which again highlights how different they are and how little they have in common." The only notable difference is Lucifer's is partly out of empathy. Lucifer has that added factor of not wanting people to worry about him. Both of them put up a smile to avoid showing weakness to others.
Lucifer making Alastor react matters when Alastor doesn't break elsewhere, even in the face of direct slander from a former friend. And Alastor being wary and avoidant? I'm sorry, do you even know who you're talking about? This man openly antagonized the Devil to his face. He started the bickering.
He literally butt into his song, Hell's Greatest Dad. Alastor didn't have to say anything, to antagonize, but he did. And Vivzie has said that Alastor is not afraid of Lucifer.
And Alastor getting a reaction out of Lucifer, including genuine enjoyment, matters because:
Hi, clinically Major Depressive here. When you're depressed, really depressed, even more so if you've isolated, it's good to feel anything. And that he was having fun before Alastor started going for the jugular, that's a sign that they could be competitive instead of antagonistic, they they could have fun together.
There is pain and resentment between Vox and Alastor. A fan asked Viv to describe their relationship in two words and she said "complicated" and "sad". That doesn't sound like they like each other to me, but it sounds like they did.
And the implications of that? Of Vox being pissy because Alastor rejected him? And just how butthurt Vox is about the whole thing?
And it's not envy, or not just envy. Vox controls practically everything in Hell. He has his claws in everything. He has eyes everywhere. He can literally hypnotize people. And, notably, he has beaten Alastor.
Here Val says Alastor almost beat him. Which means whatever kind of fight it was, Alastor lost. But still Vox is flipping his shit the moment he hears Alastor is back in town and jumps the gun to slandering him. Alastor's feelings are just as virulent if you pay any attention, but he plays it off like Vox is beneath his notice. He is amused by Vox's temper tantrums, but that doesn't mean he likes him.
Loyal to a fault yes man is still wearing his wedding ring. He has been separated from Lilith for potentially decades, and has had no contact with her for seven whole years, years where in his isolation Lucifer had more contact with Charlie than Lilith did. Because I'll remind you, Lilith also ghosted Charlie. Lucifer loves Charlie so much I can't imagine him not feeling some type of way about that.
Brazen of you to assume Lucifer, the embodiment of PRIDE is straight.
"innocence"? INNOCENCE? I'm sorry, who is innocent here? Lucifer because he's sweet? Alastor because he's presumably a virgin? Bruh THEY'RE IN HELL. NO ONE IS INNOCENT. Lucifer is literally ancient, he's not stupid.
"Not everyone does need an option..." In canon, sure. Everyone doesn't have to end up with someone. But what bearing does that have on liking one pair together? And some people just enjoy love as a concept, enjoy companionship and support in media. And where the fuck is the harm in enjoying that? Let people enjoy things and don't act higher than thou about it. You are no better than anyone else.
And, well, I'm not sure if the people I've seen on my defense posts because I can't shut the fuck up want that spotlight, but with a simple search I found a couple Radioapple artists who are also ace. (not tagging them so as not to bother them, but linking their pages to their names)
tollingreminiscentbells sunlit-mess mallowtonmouse alloplush gizmos-n-gadgets softcocoa syaunei skiplo-wave
Oh, and also me.
This is also not at all a comprehensive list, this is just from a cursory glance through the radioapple tag. Which is another thing, this also doesn't include people who might just not put their identity in their bio, and the ones that don't have it in their bios that I listed I have seen them confirm it in other posts.
I hope this was comprehensive enough for you.
Am I the only one who can't stand how popular Radioapple has become because I think it makes no sense and should die in a fire? I'm sorry but Radiostatic makes A LOT more sense even it's completely one-sided from Vox's perspective, because those two have a HISTORY and a reason to bond even if it all ended in flames and they're now bitter exes or whatever the hell they are.
Alastor and Lucifer have nothing in common let alone any romantic chemistry, and while I can see them having a begrudging friendship/ally-ship for Charlie's sake and it would be great to see them bond over her, there's no way it can go beyond that.
This is no comment on notherpuppet's very popular comics by the way because I objectively love their work and think they're very talented, but I cannot fathom how Radioapple has become the go-to ship for Hazbin, especially given how people are completely ignoring Alastor's asexuality. At least Radiostatic can be one-sided in a scenario where Alastor didn't reciprocate any feelings - but Radioapple is definitely mutual? Hah. Yeah, right.

The Mercs vs An Escape Room
Scout:
He starts out having a pretty good time, sort of tinkering around with puzzles and poking at things. But then the reality hits and he realizes he canāt understand any of this shit out for the life of him. Once he figures out that heās hopeless, itās all over. His level of calm goes from 0 to 100 real quick, and pretty soon heās screaming āoh gawd weāre never gonna make it out of here aliveā and shit. He loses all logical sense and just starts clawing at the walls and like a trapped cat while the others actually solve the puzzles. 3/10, someone give him a paper bag to breathe into
Soldier:
Doesnāt understand why no one will let him break the door down if theyāre all so keen to āescapeā the goddamn room. He thinks puzzles are for babies, but he also thinks they are far too complicated and confusing if anyone tries to explain them to him. When he isnāt allowed to break out by force, he tries to help find clues by pointing at things he notices. Everything he suggests is either completely unrelated or makes absolutely zero sense. 1/10, he is no help whatsoever
Pyro:
They think itās really cool, and they love searching around for buttons to press or levers to pull. They definitely want there to be trapdoors or swiveling fireplaces rather than puzzles and clues, and are the most likely to be disappointed if it isnāt up to their high expectations. If it isnāt as fantastical as they hope, they will still have fun as long as one of the others asks them to join in on deciphering a mystery together. They love working as a team, and try to get everyone involved. 7/10
Engie:
Oh, this whole experience just brings out a youthfulness in him that the others donāt get to see very often. He is practically giddy over putting all the puzzle pieces together, this is exactly the kind of thing his brain loves to do. He knows not everyone understands stuff like this, but he wants them to have as good of a time as he is so he tries to explain his thinking process in a fun and involving way. 9/10, heās like the dad on the field trip whoās having more fun than the kids
Heavy:
As much as he hates to admit it, heās kind of with Soldier on this one. He can absolutely refrain from causing property damage, butā¦ there are definitely easier ways to āescapeā this room. Heavy just lets other people do the puzzles, but occasionally he will point out something if he sees a clue while watching from afar. If someone actively tries to get him engaged, heās interested enough to take the bait, but otherwise heāll more or less be an observer. 5/10
Demo:
He feels like heās out of his league around the more scientific mercs, and he doesnāt have a lot of confidence when it comes to brainy stuff. He is way better at it than he gives himself credit for though, and ends up getting in his own way more than anything else. Demo acts as a sort of mediator, making sure no one breaks anything and trying to find ways to involve others who are also less confident. 8/10, definitely the kind of guy Iād want to go with
Medic:
He takes a very methodical approach, which isnāt exactly a bad thing but he kinda forgets that, in the end, itās supposed to be fun. He isnāt super great a working with other people and he wants to figure it all out himself, so he can be kinda frustrating and stuck up. Plus, he gets all butthurt about it if heās wrong about something. But as long as he doesnāt get too wrapped up in it, he doesnāt have a terrible time. 6/10
Sniper:
He is very hands-on, and he just starts pokin around at stuff. While everyone is arguing about what key leads where or whatever, Sniper is off yanking on books to check for hidden levers and trying to see if he can yank the picture frames off the walls. He doesnāt bother trying to puzzle anything out, he just grabs onto random stuff. There is absolutely no reason to this man, if he was in there alone he would literally never get out. 6/10, he isnāt helping but extra points because heās fun to watch
Spy:
Ohohoh he is not passing up this opportunity to show off. This is something he is actually pretty good at, and he wants everyone to know about it. Sure he pretends to be bored and unbothered by it all, but his ego will be deeply wounded if someone else gets to an answer before he does. Heās stuck in a weird spot of not wanting to come across as too interested, but also desperate to figure it all out first and have people to pay attention to him. He is so annoying the whole time, and the worst part is he keeps being right about stuff so the others canāt just ignore him. 7/10, heās good at it and that makes me angry

Why I Find the Stories in the Sonic Comics Dislikable and Toxic than the Animated or Game Series.
I had to post this.Ā
So pretty sure that most of the watchers thatās read my posts on here are askingĀ āWhyāre you giving so much flack and dislike to the Sonic comics?ā
And to that I sayĀ āIāve got a LONG list of said reasons!ā
When the first Archie Sonic Comics came out, I got hooked on it. The stories were fun, whimsical and just as enjoyable to read as it is on the game. BUT come around the 2000ā²s and THIS is where the shit hit the fan...
First we had the infamousĀ āBitchy Sallyā, where one writer had theĀ āBrilliant ideaā to not ONLY make Sally look like a bitch, but ACTED like one as well, even going as far as straight up SLAPPING Sonic for making HIS CHOICE, ON HIS OWN, about still helping to save the day!
The writer in this story, BULLSHIT MOVE, DUDE! Sallyās a FREEDOM FIGHTER whoād rather FIGHT WITH HER FRIENDS, NOT BEĀ āDaddyās Little Princessā and sit on a throne all day!Ā
First off, thatās COMPLETELY OOC of her, both personality wise and romantic wise with Sonic!Ā Second, WHY would she choose to justĀ āRule the kingdom insideā while her friends are on missions! In case anyone hasnāt read the past issues, she and Sonic FORMED the new Freedom Fighters AFTER the disappearance of the original Freedom Fighters! Third, YOU'RE NOT GONNA TELL ME THAT EVERYONE WHO READ THAT INFAMOUS "SALLY SLAP" ISSUE AND BREAKUP ISSUE AREN'T PISSED AT THE GUY WHO WROTE THAT, BECAUSE HE'S JUST A BUTTHURT FANBOY WHO NEVER CARED ABOUT THE FANS OF THE COMICS, BUT ONLY CARED ABOUT HIMSELF! Fourth, Writing comics about characters acting OUT OF CHARACTER like that are NOT WANTED in the comics! Also, WE NEVER ASKED FOR ANY "REALISM" CRAP FROM ANYBODY, EVEN IF THEY'RE FANFIC WRITERS WHO SUDDENLY TURNED INTO "HEAD WRITERS"!
SPEAKING of which, people like Ian Flynn are the reason WHY the Sonic Comic fandom is toxic, along with it's fans. Ever since Ian's been the head writer in both Archie and IDW comics, he's just been throwing "Ideas" this way and that, making up excuses for why his "Ideas" are "Amazing and logical".But in all honesty, they're complete and utter crap! Especially the comics in the 2012 issues: Sally's robotization with no clear explanation on WHY she's the ONLY ONE to be robotized (PRETTY SURE that Sonic, Eggman and Snively WEREN'T the oNLY LIVING BEINGS on that damn Death Egg or whatever!) Bunnie's derobotization via MAGIC OF THE CHAOS EMERALD! (She had her ORIGINAL robotized limbs SURGICALLY REMOVED and REPLACED WITH PROSTHETIC LIMBS, so her being derobotized wouldn't even HAPPEN!) Bunnie abandoning her friends to seek "gaining robotic limbs again". (Utter OOC ridiculouness! She's not just abandoning her friends here, she's ALSO putting Antoine's sacrifice in VAIN and WORTH NOTHING!) Robian/AI hate. (This was already, ALREADY, done in the past issues with Robian Racism, NOW we have this no nonsense AI Racism against NICOLE, who BUILT THE CITY for the citizens, and Ian just made them sound like a bunch of ungrateful racists because "OH, she was BRAINWASHED and used for EVIL! SHE'LL DESTROY US ALL!!!" Bunch of crap that wasn't needed or asked...) Oh and the fact that the editor's "Allowed" Ian's "Other M" universe to exist in the comic...Last time I checked, that was Ian's PERSONAL FAN COMIC, not finished btw! So for them to bring THAT tripe into the "Official Sonicverse", nope! Shouldn't have happened! Fan characters maybe, but NOT fan worlds... It sounds like a Delusional Fanboy Dream.... SMH
And can we talk about how Ian basically did ANOTHER year long "Arc" with the ZOMBOT VIRUS? His stories, just like the ones in Archie, NEVER made sense! "Metal virus can infect organic things, but NOT inorganic things. But make it so that if it touches any article of clothing on a character's body, they're instantly turned into a Zombot."Uh, what kind of logic is THAT? Yeah, that's like saying "Zombies turn living beings into zombies from being attacked, but let's make it so that they can turn items like plushies and electronics into zombies as well, for added SHOCK VALUE!". Bullshit alert...I mean it's fine that everyone liked the arc, but I don't. Firstly, we already have a BUNCH of Zombie Apocalypse things in media already. From Pride and Prejudice to the Archie Gang. It's just... It feels more like a trend than a genre anymore, and doing that every time just makes it feel "Blah" in the future. And second, WHY was Ian even writing arcs for ANOTHER year or two now, AGAIN!? The first time was in the Archie Sonic, and that lasted for 2+ YEARS! Do you have ANY idea how pissed off I was about that? To wait and wait and wait for ANYTHING about when Sally was going to rescued, Bunnie to come back or Antoine to awaken again, only to hear that "The Editors wanted the Freedom Fighters to be cut out permanently." or whatever, "But Ian saved the day by CONVINCING them to keep them around!" or whatever! Only to give us some bullshit excuses for the continuous "Arc" because "Realism, yo! Gotta make the comics as close to REAL as possible!"
IT'S A COMIC BOOK BASED ON A SONIC CARTOON SERIES, IT ALREADY HAS THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF DRAMA AND "DARKNESS" BEFORE YOU CAME ALONG!
And to make the rest of the fans WAIT and WAIT until you were READY to finish the arc, is STUPID! NOT TO MENTION THAT IT WAS NEVER RESOLVED BECAUSE OF THAT DAMN KEN PENDERS COURT CASE! So you guys just shrugging your shoulders and being like "Welp, time to just leave it unfinished and do a reboot fo the comic series" is a pisspoor move!
And on top of THAT, some of the fans are cleaning up YOUR MESSES and picking up where you guys failed and left off! Which ALSO meant that they have to ANSWER THE UNANSWERED QUESTIONS YOU HACKS NEVER COMPLETELY ANSWERED! So THANKS, DUDES. THANKS for just giving up on the fans!But the one thing that pissed me off even more, was when Ian and another person BASICALLY wrote off the "SonSal" pairing and went straight into the Sally/Nicole pairing! As in a living being and an AI being a COUPLE! Before you guys throw any hate at me, I want to point out that I have no problem with any characters being in the LGBT+ community, nor have any problems with shipping which characters. But to just suddenly make Sally and Nicole into a couple...Why? No seriously, why? To me, Sally and Nicole were more like best friends and sisters, not to mention that shipping a character that's alive with a character that's nothing but artificial intelligence and robotics is....Again, WHY?And from wht I heard, Ian's excuse was because "I'm sick of the SonSal/SonAmy fights going on, so those couples DON'T EXIST TO ME!" is just being a man-child who won't, once again, care about the fans. Oh and the toxicity from the SalCole pairing is beyond stupid, especially on Twitter. I made a comment about how I only saw Sally and Nicole as sister and best friends more than a couple, but this "Bitch" decides to jab her two cents in my face and be like "OH WELL THEY'RE AN ACTUAL COUPLE BECAUSE IT'S CANON, BLAH BLAH BLAH!" (I wish I had the Tweets, but I blocked this toxic person because "I'M right and YOU'RE (Me) WRONG! And ALSO, I'm a part of the LGBT+ Community so that makes me even MORE RIGHT!" mentality is beyond stupid!)I also want to point out that her excuse as for why she thinks the SalCole pairing is "Canon" is because "Well this woman in the staff MADE it canon and whatever, so...Here's proof of that bullshit that went down: https://twitter.com/MistyKSnow/status/1455694958891913217 And this: https://twitter.com/CooperGal24/status/1455699902957293570Also, congratulations @MISTYKSNOW, you've not ONLY made yourself look like a complete jackass by calling everybody HOMOPHOBIC and QUEERPHOBIC, you're ALSO defending your "Logic" with NO proof or evidence that Sally and Nicole were EVER a couple! Like I said in that Twitter post: JUST STARGAZING AND NICOLE BEING A LIVING PERSON TEMPORARILY! IT ISN'T BEING GAY! Also, this was in the 2000's, so the LGBT+ community was slowly rising at that point I believe. You're wrong, don't force your opinions on others. Also ALSO, what part of "NO ONE ASKED!" do you NOT get at all!? No one asked for YOUR penny, so mind your own damn business!
Ya know, Iāve once read an article about how Mario Bros, Kirby and Metroid were ORIGINALLY planned to be a comic series in the Archie Comics, but Nintendo decides to throw that idea away because they donāt like it... Methinks that all of this bullshit in the Sonic Comics, along with the toxicity from fans, just MIGHT be the real reason why the folks at Nintendo donāt want their franchises being a part of the Archie Comic series.Ā
And while this is a big loss for the fans, I think Nintendo dodged a major nuke missile here.
I mean, can you IMAGINE theĀ āStoriesā that wouldāve been written here? Kirbyās homeworld blowing up into cosmic pieces, Samus being reduced to a Fanboyās wet horny dream by being theĀ āDumb Blonde with the mind of a Bimboā, and about as MUCH drama in the Mario comics to make the soap opera shows of today look like a comedy skit...?
Like I said, NUKE MISSILE DODGED! ANYWAYS, that's why I find the Sonic Comics a WHOLE lotta toxic here, and you can see why now, too. Sorry for the vent, but hope you guys have a great day!

[laundromaitre said: āWhy do bi women mostly date men?ā supply and demand my dude - the sheer volume of straight men in this world is unprecedented, they are abundant] Oof, ladies, let's TALK about this shit right here, because you're right and it has to be said. On top of the sheer volume that makes wlw dating incredibly difficult, there are also insufferable, self-righteous, egotistical, misogynistic, and abusive women that makes said wlw dating a hundred times harder and less fun than straight dating. Yes, there are plenty of horrible female-attracted men out there, but my GOD do they AT LEAST show their strong desires to spend intimate time with women by taking us out on dates, making the first move, and-here's a delicious one-completely pay for the entire date afterwards! For a group that's always crying about bi women choosing to focus on men rather than women, they sure know how to make the situation so much worse for the rest of us! Smh. I want the butthurt losers to really stop and fucking think about this for a few minutes: If you are, by all means, an attractive, accomplished bisexual woman, who can have her pick of the litter, which group do you think you're going to feel the most desired and happiest? A. The group that doesn't victimize themselves and make the first move thanks to hundreds and hundreds of years old of dating rituals and traditions, paying for the dates, show they are attracted to her even after learning she is bisexual, and doesn't create tiers inside their heads that lesbians are better than bi women or lesbis are better than het women or all these other sexist crap, etc.
Or B. The group that whines all day everyday about tfw no gf, is still hopelessly in love with their ex-gfs despite so many years of it being over since most people don't want to be her friend or lover thanks to her shitty attitude against everyone who is not exactly the same as her, has incredibly misogynistic views against het/bi women to the point that they cannot see them as real complex human beings, doesn't want to make the first move or pay for the date or take the lead in the bedroom and accuse the bisexual woman of being "too passive" or a "pillow princess", talks endless shit about other bi women to the bisexual woman, interrogates her about her sexual history, etc? YES, I understand that there are plenty of terrible misogynistic men, but by God I can't be the only one realizing the hopelessness about wlw dating. One group (het/bi men) are a whopping 90% or so of the total male population, yes many are awful and undateable but there are still plenty more that can be decent partners for said bi women. The other group (lesbian/bi women) are barely even 10% of the female population, most have a lot of self-hatred and internalized misogyny and homophobia that they act out on against other women and makes dating them an absolute fucking nightmare, so then you have like 1%-4% that are dateable, but they're probably too far, age difference is too much, etc. It's a dead end a lot of the time. Stop complaining about bi women who aren't having a good time in wlw dating and needing to go back to being with men when it's the losers who are making the situation worse with the blatant bimisogyny. What a shocker that people who don't feel welcomed in one space want to get out and stay away from it! Who woulda thunk? Men have already beaten y'all when it comes to volume. What are YOU (not to rantingcroc or laundro just speaking in general) doing to make wlw dating more accessible, fun, and more attractive as an option? And please, spare me with the "uhhhhhhhh we can find the clit and make our women cum twenty times in one night uwu" because you all fail at making all the moments leading up to the bedroom incredibly hard to properly enjoy, nor is explosive sex the only thing that can keep a relationship or marriage together in hindsight. We as women need MORE than that. Really sit on that and think about it instead of complaining. God.
@laundromaitre You've been tagged in this, too!
I definitely would disagree with it being "hopeless," because like everything, it's complicated.
It takes one single person to connect with to spend the rest of your life with. There are just a lot of stereotypes and internalised biphobia to deal with. Plus, not only are there bisexual women who believe that they're lesbians, or who call themselves lesbians to appease their lesbian partners for their "ease," there are plenty of bisexual women put off dating other women because we're constantly told that our attraction to women "isn't real," or that our attraction to women is "predatory," or it's reinforced that we're "destined to be with men," so there are bisexual women who internalise that.
Realistically, most women aren't feminists, either. Not to the extent that radfems often believe that they are. They'll have the same complaint sessions about men that we all have, but they haven't been faced with true class analysis, so there just isn't that background involved, either. When they're also pressured by others around them that they're "lying" about their bisexuality, or that it's a "phase," or that they "need to hurry up and settle down," especially with the female socialisation that hammers home that women are "supposed" to be married to men and having their children etc, right alongside how much more likely it is for bisexual women to have self-esteem issues and mental health issues and be victims of domestic abuse that primes a need to cling to anyone that shows love, it's complicated and painful.
Feminists are supposed to be able to understand full analysis of what's going on in the real world, but as soon as it's time to hate bisexuals, they drop right down to MRA levels of thinking.
It's the romantic relationship equivalent of, "The wage gap doesn't exist, but even if it does, then women just need to get better jobs?"
Some fauxminists actually need to think outside of the carefully crafted bubble that they think is reality created by social media and interact with the real world sometime.

Tbh the actors were doing great jobs, I loved the movie for the acting. I just don't like the majority of the movie/plot. Ken, a guy who literally defines himself over his love for barbie (only the stereotypical one which.... I agree is weird but I can chalk it up to him just being so in love that he doesn't care about anyone else) and feels like he's not enough bc he can't do anything (even shown to be bad at beach) which is... His fault kinda? I kinda doubt that the possibility of being more than Ken that is in love with barbie comes only after barbie says it. If he felt like he could and should be/can do more then... Do it? Idk. He literally doesn't do anything about it until he finds out he has the power to run stuff and brainwash people to cater to his will? I wouldn't even be surprised if he manipulated/brainwashed the Ken's too bc most seemed happy with their lives. It feels like lazy characterization and story writing to me. "we need to include the patriarchy as an issue. How do we do this?" "idk, we got a Ken. Let's use him"
I'm mostly unhappy with nuance bc fans just see those dumb reviews and laugh at it instead of reading criticism that is not written by right wing misogynists and their pals. If they don't pay attention to honest feedback that criticises it they frustrate the people bc they're not listened to or even worse being made fun of and compared to those whose reviews are obviously made by right wingers etc. Maybe read the critics and rethink your opinion. I don't say they should instantly agree and abandon their own opinion but an opinion can be more nuanced than "good" or "bad". It can be "it has some issues that should have been addressed but I enjoyed the movie and think it's good" or "the movie had a good idea and good scenes but I don't like the story". But nowadays fans quickly get butthurt by criticism and quickly dump hate on those having more complex opinions so....
Also I don't get how people don't even get kinda thoughtful after the movie. I heard two guys talking about the movie instantly after it ended going "best movie of the year" and your entitled to your own opinion but also... You should maybe think a bit more about what it shows about the world. Like you may have not (directly) been exposed to the issues girls have, esp growing up, but it literally shows that the life of a woman is pretty shitty. Like a guy needs to go to a college to get a high job. Oh no, poor you. I don't say guys don't have hard lives too, far from it but the movie is about the patriarchy and it shows how a guy basically needs nothing than education to get the highest paying job. A woman needs way more to even have a chance of being a lower guys assistant. Doesn't matter that she has more knowledge than the highest guys combined, you can count yourself lucky to get a job on the lower ranks that makes you a modern slave to a man, barely get money, no perspective, and get to watch clueless guys get promoted after half a year even though you worked 20 years there and only got a 10$ raise or whatever. Even in other parts of life woman are pretty much always seen as inferior, unless it can be weaponized by men. "I'm sorry honey, you know I can't cook" "a baby needs it's momma to take care of it" "the kitchen is your kingdom, I don't even know where everything is and how stuff works" "I need so much longer to clean and don't know where to find/put everything". That's life. And whatever you do, you always do it wrong. Even women have been so brainwashed by that shit to attack other women for doing sth how they do it instead of staying together and helping. "What do you mean, you work full time? Your baby needs you!" "You are a stay at home mom even though your kid is so big already? You gotta go back to work or you'll never get a job again!" someone will always criticise you. And that's the sad truth shown in the Barbie movie. Whatever you do you can never do it right. And while I personally have the "I don't care what you think, I don't even know you. Your opinion doesn't matter to me" attitude it puts pretty much everyone down if you get critizised all day long. It's a very disheartening thing. And yet it's reality.
How can you laugh about that? I personally want to cry until I don't feel anything anymore from that. Maybe it's bc of the different problems in my life, maybe it's bc I've been having issues of depression for what feels like my whole life, maybe it's just the fact that my heart breaks ever so often again when I see all this unnecessary cruelty and hate and how willing so many people (mostly straight white men in power) are willing to fuck over poeple for no other reason than being able to do so.
Love the movie, go ahead. But I don't think I'll ever understand how people see the issues addressed in the movie shoved in their face with the notion of "hahaha it's never gonna change, deal with it" and just... apparently laugh it off and say it's not that deep/not the message of the movie/whatever.
Also, about the shoes... In the end it's shown barbie wears the "ugly reality sandals" from the beginning but in beautiful barbie pink. The ending of the movie kinda says "take the suffering under the patriarchy and make it beautiful, make it yours" imo. Like change it maybe? And reflect it in the end by barbie wearing boots or ballerinas or whatever else? Would have been a better end imho.
I mean saying the movie supported men's rights kind of ignores that what the kens did was painted as bad. Like that was very much the message of the film
That was the text of the film but not the message.
I'm not going to apply greater nuanced analysis to a movie that had all coherent structure papered over in producer notes. But for a movie that spends a lot of time pointing out situations that are unfair, not equal, or "bad" it didn't have anything to say about why or what might actually resolve the inequality.
Not saying it needs to author the revolution or anything, just it kinda stopped at "patriarchy bad because men rule all and are dumb boys who are gross" and I think that's boring? It's like hey, inequality sure is bad! And it seems like weird and wrong the girl empowerment doll for diverse women is exclusively developed by old white men! Followed by crickets chirping.
I was kinda waiting for the other shoe to drop, like yes, this is a pretty fun satirical look at gender and... and..? And that's it. Barbie world goes back to hierarchical control in a perfect utopia. The real world is unaffected because all those executives are just silly guys who are trying their best. Gloria gets to be a good mom, and hands her ideas over to the corporation. The new line of Barbies are Barbies that just don't want anything at all. And Margot Barbie just leaves.
Which is unfortunate because it starts out with a great deal of very interesting ideas, but ends up without anything much to say at all. It uses all the right words but mostly just kinda ascribes broad universal meaning and morality rather than considering any of it could have some underlying complexity.
We all know feminism can't hold hands with capitalism, but the Barbie movie wants the cache of the feminist movement beholden to the bottom line of Mattel's investors. And as a fun movie about children's dolls it's fine, but it's also selling itself as a feminist film, which it very much is not.

Could you do one with an MC who is rich and has two butlers and they happen to arrive out of nowhere, and they start to become clingy, and they call MC āØMasterāØ? How would the brothers react? And could you also please do the reaction of the undateables to? Thank you and keep up the great work!ā¤ļøā¤ļø
What an interesting concept :0
These will be short-ish since you want to include the Undateables, too. Also, bear with me. First time doing the Undateables. Luke is excluded because he is a baby.Ā
Lucifer:
He didnāt remember this being in your selection packet. This is unacceptable.
Is very unnerved and aggravated because...why so clingy? Have some dignity!
Literally wrinkles his nose at them and scoffs
When they address you asĀ āMasterā in his presence he tries very hard not to throw something at them or make a demon noise.
Something about them addressing you like that seems like a smack in the face, like theyāre flaunting their closeness and heās just not here for it
If they get him the right way on the wrong day, heās going to pull rank and be likeĀ āI was here with them BEFORE you got here and youāre in the Devildom. MY HOME. Know your place.ā
Will play their game and force them to actually be a butler, dismissing them when heās with you or requesting things. If they donāt look like they want to do it for them, heād call them out on whether or not theyāre really a butler with that shit-eating smirk on his face.
Mammon:
Is pretty excited. Theyāre basically his butlers now too, right?! Heās your best man so you share, right?!
If they shut him down, ignore him, or dismiss him, Mammonās going to be super butthurt about it
Their whole clingyĀ āMasterā bit is really not sitting right with him. Itās doing a number on his desire to be greedy and snap up all your time or attention
Is most likely to trick them, like sending an illusion of you down the hall just so they follow you. Heāll make off with the real you! Hey, itās not his fault you have dumb human butlers, okay?
May just outright lie to them and convince them that they need to work odd jobs in the Devildom to support you (āUh, yeah, no, theyāre broke here. Human money doesnāt transfer, you know?ā) because these simps would do it. You get more Grim and he gets you, itās a win!
Levi
Weirded out but really interested. Heās not super close with Barbatos so this is a chance to find out exactly what being a butler entails. Itās kind of a mystery profession, he thinks
Is also convinced they may not be human butlers because he saw that in an anime once. This sends Levi on a small (constant) spying expedition to see if anything non-human happens
This may be where he realizes he has a sub kink because hearing them call youĀ āMasterā makes him blush and feel some kind of way?!
The magic dies a bit when theyāre dismissive and kind of protective, seeming to guard you from the bros
Gets jealous because theyāre obviously close to you and thatās basically a pet name and why canāt HE have that?
They may or may not be scared by his demon form if/when he sulks around
Might trick them into playing an intense butler/serving VR game and trap them in it for a little bit. He feels like theyāve disturbed the peace of the house.
Satan
He sees their game and heāll play it. If theyāre your butlers--and good ones--theyāll cater to him, who is your company.
Lives for every moment he can catch them on a technicality and they have to include him on anything
Thinks itās cute they call you master. If they get snippy with him, heāll be happy to explain how that term originated with demons and it will take nothing short of their master to call him off of them
If heās bored or just feeling some kind of way, heāll ask them to help fetch books (at your behest, so they do it) and watch them struggle with ancient tomes that may have been enchanted to weigh a little more than normal.Ā
Satan lowkey feels on edge because they feel like intruders in their home, in the space theyāve let you share. Does not want them here.
Asmo
Butlers?! How quaint and cute! Seems like a scene from a book! Have you ever had a wild love affair?!
Charms them without using his powers. They somehow accept him. He appears to be tolerated more than the rest of his brothers, though he undoubtedly plays second fiddle to you. He understands.
Thoroughly enjoys pissing off his brothers via the butlers, toasting with little glasses of drink while the two of you have a private party. Oh, itās so fun!
Will poke fun at how much they useĀ āMasterā.Ā āSome people really enjoy that, you know? Is it projection or just your thing?ā (It gets on his nerves because, yes, it can be overused.)
Itās a nice peek into something he doesnāt have in his life but it does lose its charm eventually. Heād much prefer the House of Lamentation go back to the way it was.
Will probably charm them right back to the human world. No need for butlers here, you have seven demons!
Beel
Almost eats one of them because he thinks random humans just showed up in the house.
He honestly thought it was some reverse summoning gone wrong and theyād be totally free game to eat. They might have bad intentions, you know?
Once he realizes theyāre here for you, he apologizes but is wary.
Are they here to take you away? To check in on you? Why would they do that? You signed all kinds of paperwork stating youād be safe in the Devildom and stuff!
Lucifer gets aggravated with them floating around and attaching to you (and lowkey trying to clean/rearrange the house) so he asks you to put them on cooking duty. You seem to want a break from them so you agree. Beel tries not to abuse this too much, but heās glad to have extra bodies ready to cook!
Doesnāt really get theĀ āMasterā thing but wonāt say anything. Will idly go ask Satan if thatās a thing in the human world. He feels like it shouldāve gone out of date a couple of centuries ago.
The one to ask, point blank, if you guys decide to date or get married do they then become his butlers?
Will leave alone if heās left alone, but if they start to get hostile or sabotage his ability to hang out with you, he will think of a very passive/casual way to show his strength and why he shouldnāt be messed with.
Belphie
Almost attacked them too, but for a different reason. Heād been sleeping when they arrived and no one thought to update him. When he saw random people in the house, he thought someone may have broken in.
Cow man will defend his territory
Will definitely make fun of them when they call youĀ āmasterā. (āSeems like something a lesser creature would do.ā)
They may be here for you but theyāll learn his rules. Mainly: do not, under any circumstances, touch his cow pillow.
Couldnāt care less but if he thinks his family is being pushed away because of them, he and Satan may form a smallerĀ āButlers suckā club and test out some new pranks for theĀ āLucifer sucksā club.
Will doze in your lap just to hear you defend him and shoo them off. May slap one of them with his tailĀ āin his sleepā.
Solomon
Butlers, hm? It wasnāt something he expected
Has no outward animosity for them. Lowkey charms them; he wants them to open up and let their guard down because he is extremely interested in body language. What are they really feeling and thinking?
May show them a few spells to break the ice
If he feels theyāre stealing up your time and blocking him, heāll play their cat and mouse game. He and Satan have a lot in common in that respect.
Secretly wonders if you can make them try his cooking. He doesnāt think itās half bad!
May ask them for tips on cooking
If heās bored and you both want to have a laugh, he may find a way to spike them both with truth serum and have a fun time
Secretly wants to have a real tea party-type date
Simeon
What an act of labor and love! How adorable!
He considers them to be the human version of guardian angels and heās just so touched by it. He thinks its very cute
Dotes on them a bit, almost like theyāre puppies instead of people
He is polite and literally angelic, but he is not a pushover. Should they deny him your presence out of spite or distrust, he will give them a mini-schooling (scolding) on politeness and how he prays for their heartĀ
Probably wins them over by being his usual neutral kind of polite self
Doesnāt quite care for them calling you master and warns them of false idols and such
Diavolo
Is very amused. You also have butlers? What a small world!
Do butlers like to hang out with other butlers?
Basically tries to arrange a butler play date
Genuinely laughs when they try to prevent him from being with you in any capacity. (āThey may be your master but I am a prince. Soon to be king. Please step aside.ā)
He appreciates that theyāre protective of you but there IS such a thing as overdoing it and he can excuse them from the Devildom any time he wishes.
Overall takes their presence with grace because you having butlers is like him having Barbatos. Theyāre just very young and stubborn. He understands. Theyāll mellow out soon.
Barbatos
Finds the whole thing laughable, especially when they try to prevent HIM from seeing you
Boy has been a butler for THOUSANDS of years, he knows all the dismissal tricks!Ā
Barbatos will idly wipe a gloved hand over something theyāve cleaned (comes from being head of cleaning staff for thousands of years) and in butler code that SMACKS of judgement and disrespect
He knows this and sometimes he does it on purpose
Barbatos is the very quiet, sly kind of petty
May send the butlers into a cleaning frenzy just because they THINK heāll say something or they THINK he gave them the side eye
Those humans may work themselves sore and oh, whatās this? Youāre suddenly free and unattended? Well, he canāt have that, can he?
Probably saw this happening in one reality or another, so he takes it like a champ. Thereās just that nasty bite of pride that refuses to let him be out-butlered.
Hope you liked it, Nonnie!

Can you do stray kids reaction to wanting to befriend someone but they playfully think theyāre annoying, and like to tease them and be witty š
I hope this is what you meant ā¤
Stray Kids | Their best friend teases them 24/7
{Stray Kids Masterlist}
Type: Reaction
Warnings: swearing
-Bang Chan-
I think Chan would be like a parent if his best friend had this kind of personality
He would find it funny and laugh at them
But at times if they made a remark towards him he would simply just give them a look and they would stop
Or would just cover their mouth and tell them to shut up playfully
Just like how heās with the rest of stray kids
Pretends to be hurt when they tease him but he doesnāt mean it
Or he would just act taken back
Heās very patient though so I think he would laugh or just tolerate it
*rest is under the cut
-Lee Know-
Heād be so happy to find someone who finally gives all of his shit back to him
Like first time he makes fun of them and they fire something back he would be in complete shock
But he then never leave them alone after it
They would become inseparable
And would constantly be bantering and being so mean to each other (but of course they both know neither of them mean it literally)
Would always pretend like he doesnāt care about them but the moment someone talks shit about his friend heād be throwing hands
Only heās allowed to do that
It would be such a love/hate relationship
LikeĀ āI love you but I would throw myself off a building before I admit it.ā
-Changbin-
Heās already the main victim to the other members teasing 24/7 so he would be used to it already
He would whine so much though
He wouldnāt fight back, he would just complain about it jokingly
Like heād be trying to reach something on a high shelf and his friend would be likeĀ āhaha you too short or something?ā and he would just lose it
A lot of the time he would just start yelling while laughing at the teasing remarks because he finds them funny as well
Always would try to come across as intimidating and threaten his friend when they were annoying him but they would just laugh and continue to tease him
He would love them, they would just drive him insane
-Hyunjin-
His dramatic ass would be so butthurt every time his friend made fun of him playfully
Like after they make a smartass remark he would just roll his eyes and make something sarcastic to retort
People who meet them both would always assume that they hate each other
But even though they argue constantly, they would spend every waking moment together
It would be likeĀ ācome to the shops with meāĀ āwhyyyy??āĀ ācause youāre the only person I like hereā
I think in a way he would be slightly afraid of getting them mad at him
Like he would say something to tease them and when they stare at him with a blank expression he would start apologising before they even do anything
-Han-
This man would get so fed up with his friendās teasing
Heās a bit of a hot-head, so he gets annoyed easily
Either he would get super defensive whenever they said something or he would try tackle them to the ground
Although he seems like someone that could take some things to heart, so his friend would at times have to reassure that theyāre joking
Sometimes some of the other members would have to pull them off each other because they wonāt leave each other alone and keep bantering harshly
Like if his friend was getting on his nerves heād be so on guard
Of course though he loves them, they just have friendly arguments
One minute they would be on the ground attacking each other and the next they would be lying on the couch cuddling
-Felix-
He would love them with all his heart
But would find it hilarious whenever they made a witty remark towards him
He knows itās just their personality, so he would never take anything to heart
Becomes super entertained when he watches them tease the other members
Just sits there and laughs likeĀ āyes thatās my best friend right thereā
The friendship would be like a harsh personality with a soft personality
Felix would give them so much love and affection
And they would show it back by teasing him
LikeĀ āFelix get the fuck off me itās too hot to cuddleāĀ āshh no you love meā
-Seungmin-
He would be quite similar to Minho but he would be a lot less intense
Like he would definitely give it back to his friend but he would be more tolerant
Heās more like the silent but argumentative type
Like heās quiet until he has a proper reason to be loud
So most the time he just takes the teasing but if itās continuous he would fight back
Usually his friendās teasing wouldnāt affect him too much, heād just grow used to it
He would get back at his friend through small things like driving off when theyāre not in the car yet or waking them up by jumping on top of them
āWtf was that for?āĀ āDonāt act like you didnāt deserve that! Youāve been bothering me all day!ā
-I.N.-
It would be so funny
He would always get a shock whenever his best friend teased him
Like would pretend to act so offended and then try to physically fight them
It would be such a sibling situation in that they would just give each other shit all day and always get mad at each other
They wouldnāt even be able to play video games together without one of them getting kicked or a controller getting thrown across the room
Always would jokingly sayĀ āI hate youā
But weirdly would do everything together
No matter how much they argue and banter they never leave each other side

Am I the only one who thought the book had a lot of sexist undertones? Like preemptively modifying your body to MAYBE one day give birth to your man's (male's) babies? I feel like the IC never tried to let Nesta heal in her own way, they just forced her to do things they thought would be good for her, while demeaning her along the way. And the shield thing around Feyre is very reminiscent of how Tamlin treated her in ACOTAR... I don't know, a lot of the book just made me uncomfortable :/
Hi Nonnie!
First, I want to say that Iām sorry parts of this book made you uncomfortable. Thatās never fun. Secondā¦
I think we can reasonably say that no matter what weāre looking at, we can find sexism if we want to. Now that doesnāt mean that some things are not just blatantly sexist. I think with this book there is a conversation to be had about what some of us read as sexist and what some of us read as not sexist or even pro different-forms-of-feminism.
Itās sort of in the eye of the beholder.
Itās also a fantasy world that has developed under a patriarchy. So some things are just as sexist as they āshould beā because thatās the world building, right?Ā
So, like, territorial Fae males is fully explained in the world building and is therefore fully acceptable for the books, and is also, frankly, a kink. SJM caters to that kink. So we know weāre going to get that in these books. Most if their shit is NOT okay for planet Earth. (Thatās why some of us actively seek it and enjoy reading it in books.)
So letās get in it!
Nesta modifying her body
Now as far as Nesta modifying her own body to have children one day, I donāt see that as sexist at all. Because the alternative to her altering her own anatomy is her pausing for a moment and asking Cassian if she can strip him of his faerie race and make him something else that doesnāt have wings. If that happened, weād be getting into race and identity and all kinds of other shit that is hella problematic.Ā
So, no. Nesta wanting to one day birth her own children is not sexist. Nesta deciding to alter her own anatomy so that she can safely birth her own children with Cassian, is not sexist. (Now if Cassian did it without permission, then weād have a problem!)
The IC making Nesta heal their way
Now THIS is a conversation on choice. Not sexism. Rhys has long touted that his court is a court of choices and all that. So forcing Nesta to either go to the human lands (where sheāll very likely die) or go to the House of Wind (where she canāt readily leave) and train and work everyday, is a problem. If you want to make an argument that this is the equivalent of Tamlin locking Feyre in the house, I wonāt stop you. I would only ask that you consider the nuance.Ā
And the nuance here takes us back to world building. They donāt have psychiatric wards or mental health services or rehab centers like we do on planet Earth. Nesta needed help. AND LET ME BE REAL CLEAR: Iām not here to debate what kind of help she needed. (We could run in circles all day long debating that.) What I am saying is that they recognized that:Ā
Nestaās behavior was not good,Ā
that THEY WERE ENABLING HER,Ā
that they actually had the power to do something about her situation
They do not live in a democracy. They live in a monarchy. They have and hold absolute power and rule. And while that whole interventionāor whatever the fuck that wasāwas absolutely TERRRRIBLE, they had every right to do what they did. Why? Because it fit the world building.
They acted like rich parents fed up with a wild teenager so they cut her off and gave her a choice between getting kicked out of the house or going to work on grandpaās farm in the middle of BFE. Essentially thatās what they did.
Do I agree with it? Eh... they didnāt have a lot of options and SOMETHING needed to happen (Iād have been VERY ANGRY had they left her to die like that). Do I like it? FUCK NO. They went about it all wrong and it was shitty.
Abandoning her in the human lands would have been fucking murder. But do you HONESTLY, HONESTLY think Feyre would have done that??? ALSO, LETāS BE REAL: Nesta would not have stayed there long because EVERY HIGH LORD knows about her power and would want her in their court. That whole shit about the human lands likely was NOT real and was a scare tactic. It was a shitty scare tactic. But again, it fit the world building. AND Nestaās character (cuz it worked, she didnāt ask to go to the human lands). š¤·š»āāļøĀ
This isnāt directed at you Nonnie, but what did people think would happen? There would suddenly be psych wards and rehab centers and Feyre and Rhys would start acting with compassion and kindness and like they themselves had gone to therapy for decades and suddenly be able to convince Nesta to sign herself into one of those facilities?Ā
I get itās annoying. And itās infuriating. And some of their bullshit talking out their ass moments made me want to throw the book across the damn room. Because thatās not how you act to people in the middle of a downward spiral/crisis like Nesta was.Ā
But hereās the thing: they have no basis for knowing better. They donāt have mental health services. Gwyn mentioned a priestess who counsels them, but thatās NOT the same thing as a therapist or psychologist or psychiatric NP or psychiatrist.
So what did people expect?
Also. Do you think for one second, Nesta would have responded well to compassionate attempts to get her help? She hadnāt hit rock bottom yet (where compassion would have worked wonderfully *depending* on the type of rock bottom she hit). She would have seen any attempt like that as pity and she would have rebelled.
Hereās how I get over being annoyed with Feysand and Amren for that dumb af āinterventionā moment: I remind myself that
They recognized she couldnāt keep going down the path she was going.
They recognized that they loved her too much to let that happen (Feyre at least).Ā
They recognized that they held ABSOLUTE POWER over her in their realm
They recognized that they needed to put her in a place where she had a purpose, a routine, where she couldnāt fall back on old habits, and where she had the option to talk to other trauma survivors (if she chose to)Ā
Thatās what they knew. Putting her in the House was their only choice. So they did. And guess what? It worked.Ā
Now, the forcing her to train thing was BULLSHIT. You canāt force other people to change, they have to want that for themselves. But guess what? Turns out Nesta wanted to change. Because she wasnāt against training. She was only against doing it in a place where she could be judged. š¤·š»āāļøĀ
Also, exercising is FUCKING FANTASTIC for mental health. (Maas knows that.)
Now did they demean her along the way? Yes.Ā
Was it shitty? HELL, YES!Ā
Did Rhys finally learn his lesson that night with the nightmare? He sure af did!Ā
Did some people in the fandom expect too much from Amren? Yep. Lady was never going to show affection or be nice to Nesta. Amren shows respect. When you respect Amren, she respects you. Thatās her ENTIRE character. Weāre three books in with Amren. Idk why people are still butthurt about her personality. Like. You canāt get mad at Amren for not being a table when sheās always been a chair. (Doesnāt mean we have to like her behavior or anyone elseās. But it does mean that we only have ourselves to blame when she acts the way she always has.) This same logic applied to Mor and Feyre and Elain etc.
Also. Did them acting like assholes drive the plot forward? IT SURE AF DID! If they had acted differently the book wouldnāt be as good as it is.
The shield around Feyre
If you want to make the argument about how this is a Tamlin thing to do, I wonāt stop you. But again, Iāll ask you to consider the nuance and the world building.Ā
In a world where anyone can scent a pregnancy, would you not try to hide your rulerās pregnant scent and body from enemies and potential attacks? I would!Ā
Is it a little territorial? Yes.Ā
Does that make sense for the world building and what we know about Fae males? Yep!Ā
Could Feyre have told Rhys to cut the shit? Yes.Ā
Is it possible Feyre *maybe* use the lie of Rhys and Helion(?) having fun with shield as an excuse to have it around herself? Yeah. Iād probably do it.Ā
Look, if Feyre hadnāt wanted the shield, it would have been gone. They said it was a compromise, but you canāt tell me Rhys would force a shield around her against her own will (or that she, The Cursebreaker, wouldnāt bust through it in a heartbeat).
Sorry if this comes off as salty, Nonnie! I donāt mean to be. I just donāt really understand why people get mad at stuff in books *thatās perfectly reasonable* for the world building when the alternative that they would prefer would be out of character, out the world building, or create plot holes etc.Ā
Hope this helps!

Ranking Godzilla Ships:
Hello People!
So I decided, "I should rank some Godzilla ships, why should I not?" My ass hasn't been on Tumblr for a while and I should do something. So I was first going to use tiermaker to rank the ships, but tiermaker requires to log in to make a new template and ain't nobody got time for that. So now we're here.
So, here are the rules:
1. The ships will be ranked based on my headcanons, character biases, and how much I care for the Characters. If I care little about a character in a ship, ill rank it lower.
2. Since it's MY headcanons, some canon things may not apply. Like for ghidzilla, I'm not gonna rank it low because "their enemies" because that's not my headcanon. One, because not everyone follows the canon lore like the Bible,some want to add to the lore in interesting ways like @ya-boi-perish and hopeater. So just hating on a ship and people who ship is just... Dumb. Two, I been subconsciously shipping enemies to lovers even I like friends to lovers better.
3. This is my opinion, and also just some dumb fun thing I decided to do. I'll be looking at the fandom perception and commenting on it using my opinion on it. You can disagree with my on certain ships, you can voice your own opinion in the comments or reblogging my work. But for fucks sake, don't fight or attack me for not liking or shipping a thing from you (I dont like generalising but especially you mothzilla shippers). You're on the internet, where thousands of people can get to voice their opinions, but also people are allowed to criticise, correct or simply disagree with you. If you're mad that people can disagree with you and it's not simply an echo chamber, you can either stop trying to make your opinions facts or get the fuck off.
Anyways, my rankings are: OTP (meaning I ship it), NOTP (meaning i dislike that ship), and FOTP (meaning I'm okay with it, but I don't ship it).
You don't have to agree with me or anything, just don't act like a bitch.
Mothzilla:FOTP. For some odd reason, the fandom seems to LOVE this ship. Probably because of KOTM, where someone asks if they have a thing going on. And also mothra was queen of the monsters. Which is fine, I don't ship it really. I only see Godzilla and mothra as close friends, because I see mothra as more focused on her job as guardian. The problem comes from the fact that to the fandom, that's the only thing that's acceptable, and people go CRAZY if you ship Godzilla or mothra with someone else (especially ghidzilla-) . Which is stupid, as said before this is the internet,and if you so butthurt over a ship that you have do harmful and toxic things like send death threats tell people to off themselves than you need a therapist and to grow the fuck up. But anyway, I don't ship them asides from two Characters based off of them.
Rodorah: also FOTP. The fandom also ships this as well. I don't see Rodan or ghidorah have any chemistry other than Rodan has yellow eyes ghidorah colour is yellow or ghidorah has red eyes and Rodan's color is red. But another thing is that the fandom has a weird tendency to infantilize San, and ONLY San (well I only see it happen to san). Where he's childish and clueless and dumber than the other 2. Especially in rodorah. And it gets... Weird? Especially in smut. And it turns me off. Like what the fu-
Ghidzilla or godorah: OTP. Just hands off OTP. I don't know how it happened, maybe I was influenced by perish or agitype01 but I decided "let's see if there's Godzilla hentai". Then agitype01 appeared with her ghidzilla (slight rodzilla and rodorah)hentai God X King and I decided let's ship it. It's not an exact origin story, but my theory. I feel like my headcanons are fine, my Godzilla and ghidorah would get together and godzilla will teach them about earth. And Godzilla will probably get along with ni the most.
But for some reason, people seem to HATE this ship. The main reason is that "they're enemies!" Which is the stupidest shit I've ever seen. Well geeze! You wanna know who else PVP against each other THRICE (I didn't read the comics bro)? And also were confirmed enemies?Mothra and Godzilla, but yet shipping them is absolutely fucking fine. Also, as I said, not everyone follows canon. They stopped being enemies in my AU, and I'm wondering if Im starting to like enemies to lovers. But anyways, fine.
Mothdan: OTP. Now I know I said i view mothra as single, but in some cases, I see them as a couple. Rodan is still mourning his mate (Quetz) and mothra is kind of emotional support. I just see them as wholesome. Not any you horny cougars (looking at you perish)
That's an idea for a series I'll probably won't do.
Battra X mothra: NOTP. Now here comes the question: why do I dislike this ship? That's because I dont think the Characters in this ship have any reason to be together, or any chemistry. Like mothra, I don't personally see Battra looking for romance. And I just think they see eachother as siblings or rivals (kind of). This is also not popular, I only seen two people ship them. Probably because most people see Battra as a brother.
That's it I'm afraid. I would do more but my hands are tired and I don't want to think of more ships
#godzilla#godzilla ships#im tired#mothzilla probably has the most toxic shippers#Ghidzilla is underrated#mothzilla is overrated#yeah i said it#come at me bitch#top 5#top 5 list

This is going to sound mean and butthurt but you know what, frankly I don't care.
I would have been fine letting this whole Lando thing rest for a while.
First off, I don't care that he could him a swear word or multiple ones that is normal by there level of adrenaline and I really thought that it would be it as he apologized for that after the race.
But it wasn't.
Yes, I am upset about what he said in the post race interview. I think it's an unfair thing to say and paints Lance in a light that is not true. If you really want to blame someone for Friday, then it's Max fault. But it was dumb, nothing more. It could have probably happened to any two drivers because they're all stubborn and want to drive so they can maximize their performance.
And what Lando said about Lance never learning, that's complete bullshit. I am not discussing his talent, think of that what you want but Lance has learned and matured a lot. The Lance he is now isn't the Lance from two years ago. He changes like we all do. And never, in this entire season has he been the cause of any collision or racing incident. If anything he has been the victim of those like with Charles which some of you seem to like to forget. Where was the hate towards Charles when that happened? Where were the people calling Charles the "new Romain Grosjean" (first off completely unnecessary and secondly,Romain is not a bad driver and much better person than some of your faves) or a dangerous driver? Where were they when he drove out without his seatbelt which is actually dangerous? Or where were they when the facist did that embarrassing mistake which nearly cost him and Lando the race?
Where were you all when these things happened? Didn't you care because that wasn't your favourite drivers race ruined? Well, I am sorry but racing incidents like that happen. You can even blame Lance on the crash (which by the way, none of you all would have said something if the maneuver had worked and it's not like people haven't overtaken like that before) because it was a bit of a reckless or unplanned move.
But you know what you are not going to do? To say Lance has no talent, that he doesn't deserve his seat or other shit like that. What to know what happens then? You make him cry, you give him anxiety and self doubt and you make him so uncomfortable. Lance is a sensitive person which some of you didn't even know because until that incident you didn't care to do anything other than call him names which degrade him because of the wealth of his father (and let's not act like Lando's parents aren't rich or Nicky's which might be less sure but it's still more than I will ever have.)
Let's not act like oany of the F1 drivers had a shortage of money to get to where they are (be it through sponsor or other things.)
Let's not act like you don't need to be at least a good driver to get an F1 seat and let's not act like Lance only got his because his dad bought a team (he had two years with Williams before he joined that team where he become one of the youngest podium finishers.) And let's not pretend that would any other driver be in that position, their dad wouldn't have done the same thing or that they wouldn't have done the same thing. Let's not pretend that these are rotten morals or that anyone else would be above doing stuff like that.
But I probably could have let this whole thing go. If it wasn't for Lando's post.
Because you know what putting that clown emoji does? It gets all his fans which are young and sometimes that can't think things throughly or reflect on stuff (and he knows this, as an adult and a driver or rather online personality he has to be aware of this) to hate on Lance.
It gets them to comment stuff like "daddy's cash took you out" or "$troll is a clown."
And all of that leads to more hate to Lance. And let me just tell you something. If there is anyone who does not deserve hate it is this boy. He has never had stress with anyone in the paddock, he is such a good guy and he is a genuinely kind human being. But you don't see that. And you wanna know why?
Because Lance can't use social media. He has to be so afraid of it. He can't post one thing without people hating him. Because they don't try. They don't try to see what is behind the dumb accusations.
And if you think, that after this, that he will not get more hate than usual, that Lando was entitled to do this, that this was right or that this isn't even bad, then unfollow me.
Because what Lando did, talking someone down who is an easy target that probably can't defend themself, is exactly how bullying starts. And sure that's a hard thing to say but as someone who has been bullied, it does not always come in violence or in big grand things. It can come in the form of people spreading lies about you, the popular kids using their popularity to turn people against you. Lando and Lance are not friends, you can't label this as some banter between him and Charles. (Which to be honest, even that was weird because Charles was uncomfortable with it and it was more than just making fun but people aren't ready to see that)
Lando's post is immature but since he doesn't need to face consequences because he will be protected by some of his friends, this will probably be the end of all of this. Just a sour argument which resulted in people cyberbullying a person that made a mistake in a sport where you sometimes have to make split second decisions.
It resulted in giving someone more anxiety,self-doubt and bad feelings that he probably already has.
This was a long post and probably a bit all over the place, maybe also with a hars language but I am not going to apologise for any of it.
If you disagree feel free to, if you want to hate me, come at me but I will stand by what I said.
