One of the most annoying things you see from tes fans is seeing each race as a unified collective in ways that the games don’t even do. They act like the ways some members of a race act in some places represents all of them everywhere. The biggest and most frustrating version of this is when talking about the way Dunmer are treated in Windhelm, people bring up the in-universe racism in Morrowind. Like, that doesn’t justify the way they're treated in Windhelm at all. You really think Ulfric is doing this for justice for the Khajiit and Argonians (who he won't let in the city)? Even if he was, do you think it's right to enact that "justice" on random refugees and their descendants? We’re talking about different groups of Dunmer. They aren’t a monolith. IN MORROWIND they aren’t a monolith. The head of the anti-slavery organization in Morrowind (the game) is a Dunmer. Every province and race had different cultures and subcultures with folks with different opinions that people like this like to ignore.

These people act like it's clever to bring this up when in reality it reflects an even shallower interpretation of the worldbuilding imo.

(and that's not even touching on how comments like these reflect the language used in real life discussions of refugee asylum and immigration)

season 5 spoilers under cut

Mk, who was designed to be alone and worshiped. Mk, who was supposed to never have been given a choice. Mk, who has being a sacrifice built into his identity has friends who literally told him the opposite from the beginning. Not ONCE has Mk been alone, but he’s so caught up in destiny and predetermined fate that that’s all he think he can do. Everyone is telling him who he should be, because that’s how he was made to be like from the beginning… and yet, he’s learns

Public Service Announcement

Charlotte and Yami are beauty and the beast, yes, but it is CHARLOTTE who is the BEAST. She is the one who is cursed, and the one who causes an incident from said curse, and the one dependent on roses, and the one who is saved in the last minute by the beauty through understanding her.

Yami is the beauty, the man with a head as dense as a brick and tits as thick as pound cake. Put some respect in his name and stop making him the beast when he is, in fact, the beauty.

Always thinking of her (female character who is punished by the narrative for not being “as cool” as another female character)

There’s a tweet I’ve seen that mentions Jesus, son of a carpenter, and his (possible) reactions to the scent of the cross.

And I just want people to stop and think about this for a moment. Like…

Jesus, son of God, in the form of Man, was raise by a carpenter. He was the firstborn of Joseph, though he bore no blood of him.

He likely helped Joseph with his carpentry projects, at the very least was raised with carpentry tools and the wooden pieces all around him.

Do you think he thought of both his Heavenly father and his Earthly father as he climbed Golgotha?

Do you think he felt touched by both of them, for a moment? God’s Will and the scent of Joseph baring down on him as he walked, bleeding and beaten?

I wonder if, even for a second, Jesus wondered what Joseph would say about the construction of the cross, if Joseph’s voice echoed in his ears, the lessons on construction and worthwhile wood that had been etched into his brain came leaking out along with his blood.

I want to know if Jesus, the Son of God, felt more like Jesus, son of Joseph, for a moment before his death.

people saying Phil should run DONT TAKE ANGEL OF DEATH PHILZA AWAY FROM ME

[dogpantry]

i think people take my defending of famous or rich people to mean i care about them in any capacity beyond that of a human whose career is literally to empathize with and rehabilitate other humans. i go to work every day and treat and empathize with and form friendships with all kinds of people — rich people occasionally. and i mean “i own several patents and could die and leave my money to my children and they and their children wouldn’t have to work a day in their lives” rich. these people still have problems, lol, they’re still people i have to talk off a ledge or hand “dangers of alcohol after a stroke” pamphlets to or wipe their ass cause now their spine is busted or talk them out of killing themselves. any human can have any problem doesn’t matter what they do for a living or how they’re raised or how much money they have and i’d think this site which preaches mental health awareness etc etc would have even just a shred of human decency. taylor swift is not jeff fucking bezos and she was raised in an industry that we know is notorious for abusing children. remember millionaire britney spears? remember how people treated her and justified it? lol

No actually. Fuck this. This fucking blows. Trans people don't need Jesus or God's mercy or whatever other fucking fantasy y'all have decided you need to be complete.

The reason trans people don't join christian churches is because they are a 'community' that fundamentally excludes difference. No matter how many new interpretations of the Bible you make, you cannot erase the history of violence, colonialism, and exclusion done in the name of this God. Trans people are not participating now, and likely will not ever, for good reason.

There is no 'true message of Jesus,' there is only this history, this violence created by Christians, with the very intention of creating a world where trans people cannot live. When people try to find the 'true message,' or show the 'correct' interpretation of the Bible, they are trying to erase this history. They are asking you to be complacent, even while Christianity is being used as a cudgel to exclude, erase, deny, and kill trans people.

You don't need Christianity for community. Trans people are forming that well enough. You don't need it to reject cruel hierarchies or fight oppression. Those things are good on their own and should be done on their own merit. Folks like this are trying to hijack something good for their own ends and skip something cruel into what would otherwise be a beautiful thing.

[comas-are-for-sleeping]

its so mindboggling that people can go “how can you say free palestine if you’re queer” as if the opinions a person has changes the validity of their life??? yall sound real similar to the people saying trans people are a danger to society

I've been seeing some ppl talk abt this and now I'm curious. Do you think children's content has gotten more "mindless" or detrimental since you were a kid?

In the options, "have experience with children" means things such as having younger siblings or children of your own, being a teacher, etc., and for this poll I'm defining "children's content" as content made for or targeted towards preteens and younger. Although I'm specifically thinking about TV and YouTube, all children's content is applicable (IE books, movies, games, etc).

(To be clear this is mostly just for my curiosity, not out of a "argh kids these days/back in my day/modern content is shit" type of thing /gen). As always, feel free to add infinite nuance and personal experience in the notes, and reblog for a bigger sample size if you feel so inclined :D
