My Thoughts on Adepticon 2024

1.) The world would be a better place if Space Marine players stopped expecting a mini range refreshes every year.

2.) 40k players will do nothing but complain (in twitch chat) when looking at the most interesting minis ever designed (Warcry, Underworlds, etc.)

3.) Why didn't they show the rats what the hell

I cannot express how okay it is if your oc is a main character. Yes Ellie silvermoon the 22 year old godkiller can be your favorite. Yes he can be op.

I cannot express how okay it is if your oc is carl white 38 year old Walmart shift manager who's hobby is going down to the river to look at rocks

Alastor is a complex character!

Despite being one of the few characters in Hazbin with confirmed identities (his ethnic background and sexual orientation), those identities are in of themselves, complex experiences.

There’s seemingly nothing about the character that is Black or White.

I think that’s why he is such a compelling character! Also, it’s probably one reason why he is such an attractive conduit for folks’ creative expression.

His identities are not necessarily why many people may gravitate towards him, but they do offer a chance for people to investigate him and explore a character—as unique as he is—into avenues they may not have considered before.

I can commiserate with feeling defensive of a character who shares an identity with you—ESPECIALLY an underrepresented one. Discourse is natural and completely fine! (And very educational sometimes in my experience)

But I don’t think it’s fruitful to police a fandom in these matters. Some folks come to my inbox (I delete the really rude ones) or comment sections with a very cop-like attitude to a space that’s supposed to be creative and/or fun *airhorn*

That’s my take as just some guy on the internet 🤓🛜 have a good dayyyyy

lin manuel miranda as hermes is incredible actually. i think it was valid some people were unsure about his casting at first, since he's such a recognizable (and heavily memed) celebrity, but that man can act. his delivery, the intensity behind his eyes... he was immersed and in character every single moment he was on screen. imo he was really great and believable as hermes, and i really enjoyed his performance

people not in the mcyt fandom cheering for mcyt to win the most annoying fandoms poll: a drm fan said something offensive on twitter so i hate all mcyt fans :(

mcyt fans cheering for mcyt to win the most annoying fandoms poll: we are approximately 300+ communities all forcibly shoved into one category. half of us hate each other and there is a rampant superiority issue between communities despite them all Literally just being people roleplaying in minecraft. not only are we split between creators, but different social media communities hate each other as well. a twitter mcyt fan and a tumblr mcyt fan are wildly different things and are at constant war with each other.

Them: Wait, so, you think Tommy’s closet joke was actually hysterical and made you love his character even more instead of hating him?

iwtv ep. 11 (s2ep4) misconceptions pt. 4

now to tackle another big one - y'all are silly about the bench scene. when louis tells armand he used to be good at running things, y'all rushed to call him a pimp (derogatory).

fine, louis used to be a pimp, so ok to compare. what crosses the line is acting like armand is in the position of louis's prostitutes (who are not sex slaves, btw). why? listen to the advice he gives armand:

this is not advice a pimp would give a prostitute - it's advice a pimp would give another pimp, his equal, advice for how to manage his own enterprise. he's putting himself in armand's position and telling armand what he would do. just like louis "managed" finn o'shea and his prostitutes, armand manages santiago and the coven. armand recognizes this and firmly states that he's not willing to give up leadership of his coven (🧐i wonder if this will be relevant later), but listens to the rest of louis's advice.

frankly, it's ridiculous to think louis is being anything other than kind and generous when he tells armand that he can decide what he wants to do with his life:

which leads into the one of the most romantic moments in the show:

levan akin knew exactly what he was doing with this scene, and y'all are the ones who refuse to take it for what it is - sexy, foreboding, and romantic at the same time. y'all stopped letting the tale seduce you - i guess not enough blondes were on screen.

i like to imagine that paul suit discourse happens in-universe too. it's like one of those "blue and black or white and gold" things - every new CCRP employee is interrogated on what colour they think paul's suit is, and then unknowingly dragged into war based on their answer. if CCRP ever has company bonding paintball games, the teams are always split by what colour they think paul's suit is. one day, ted asks him directly, and when paul 'disagrees' (it's his suit and it's brown, god damn it. it says it right there on the label, see!) he insists the poor guy must be colourblind or some shit.

Topzai or bottomzai?

As proof that you've been paying attention in class I'm gonna need a minimum one-page essay about my opinion on the subject complete with sources and examples from my blog, though having to ask at all should give you a clue about it

Here are some works for you to study for your assignment, enjoy!

Thinking about it, I really need someone to explain to me why AMAB non-binary people aren't considered to be victims of misdirected transmisogyny that affects them merely because they were misidentified as a trans woman. Can someone do that for me? Anyone? Is there a transradfem who doesn't have me blocked or who I haven't blocked for harassment that can illuminate me on that point?
