Bluepoch gave us the gift of barely-subtext tragic sapphic-centric media do NOT throw that away.
Context regarding PJSK and Undertale under cut.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Project Sekai cast is dominated by female characters but mlm is more popular, meanwhile Undertale has canon wlw rep and oh my god they’re at the bottom. I have nothing against these fandoms or media (I’m literally currently/was in them) but yeah. I just HOPE r99 doesn’t end up in a similar state.

#maybe I was naive before and/or maybe I'm just bonedead tired af and not making much sense (i know I am)#bue the thing is if you had asked me before this night why the USA have never had a female president unlike so many comparable countries#I would have...attributed like 50%-80% of the reason to structural causes and the obsession with male candidates#yes there are extremely regressive and misogynistic regions and subcultures in the US - but that is true for most countries!#it is also a country with some VERY progressive people#and I don't know any country where so many people are so constantly actively and vocally arguing in favour of FINALLY having a female leade#so yeah I attributed it mostly to the general obstacles for female politicians and how elections in the US work and even past candidates#and I guess a big part of me wanted to believe that all this clownery of men saying they feel emasculated voting for a woman#was just a special sub-category of freakishness that gets pushed into the spotlight during the election#but at this point (dead-tired and annoyed as all shit)...I'm at the point where I say the United States have an almost unique problem#with voting for a woman + the idea of having a female president#maybe it's the huge role of the military and the president as leader of the troops or maybe it's the impact of evangelicals on the culture#maybe it is the role of gender roles in pop culture being so deeply entrenched#obviously this election racism and Harris being a woman of colour also plays a huge role#but at the point I am it genuinely feels to me like there's a very specific hang-up in the US regarding female candidates#and I know a lot of people are going to end up saying: 'oh it has nothing to do with it it has nothing to do with gender'#and I would have had that discussion and said that the issue with discrimination is that often you can't prove the individual case#but at this point....specifically with the US I have a hard time being like 'maybe it was maybe it wasn't' in regards to this factor#sorry to say

how would Nuala react to finding out that Daisy and Hazel solved a murder in a theatre? I just re-read Death in the Spotlight and couldn’t help but think of Nuala lol
She would be SO jealous. But also really thrilled to just hear about it. (You might actually have the answer to this in Ministry 3 if all goes to plan!)

didnt even touch on the sandra lynn stuff int he tags of the last post bcos if i talk about her im liable to explode. get behind me, middle-aged divorced woman proficient in archery
#wasnt around for sy as it aired but ive seen the remnants of the liveblogging and its so foul#the genuine misogyny....#saw someone claim gilear was a better parent than her and i had to turn off my computer#i know we all love gilear and hes been tbh redeemed by comedy where sandra lynn doesnt get that#but like. be serious.#that tonal shift in difference of how gilear and sandra lynn are received is wicked interesting to me#and like pre-emptive disclaimer this isnt Gilear Problematic I Want Discourse. im just thinkin thoughts here#the way fy episode 1 gilear actively left his wife n daughter and calls her a demon even if he doesnt mean it that way#but then fig/emily takes an interest in him and from there hes a radically different character whos just kind of. pathetic.#im hesitant to call it flanderization because initial gilear only got like 10 minutes of screentime before wet cat gilear took the stage#but like. in ep1 both faeth parents are shown as equally flawed and on an even narrative playing field#which is then upset as fig latches onto gilear as a comedic force and hes not as much 'dad with tense relationship to daughter he disowned'#as 'guy the pcs do bits with'. esp in fy he doesnt do much but let fig live in his apartment sometimes#(and if u rlly wanna analyse u could say something abt her basically taking care of him instead of the other way around)#this then rlly impacts sandra lynn! bcos now fig has One tense parental relationship to rest all her angst on#and where gilear gets bits. sandra lynn really doesnt get much spotlight until the prison sequence#and the lack of focus on sandra lynn Is lampshaded in-universe and i like the resolution#and then u get to sy where sandra lynn gets as much spotlight as gilear but she doesnt have his comedic shield#so instead she has the dramatic spotlight and both the story and the characters are weirdly obsessed w her sex life#and yeah i know im an aro autist maybe i take cheating a bit lightly. but its in the same category as the 'zelda is mad at gorgug' shit#shes made a spectacle but because shes not gilear and society has notions about sex she gets judged for it#like something abt gilear disowning fig getting dropped while sandra lynn is scrutinised so much rlly rubs me the wrong way#she is FLAWED that is what THE JAIL EP WAS ABOUT!!!#she is TRYING arguably more than GILEAR but she doesnt have the absolution of rule of funny to fall back on#i go insane. i go insane#post not mentioning jy bcos i havent seen it. once again middle-aged divorced women proficient in archery get behind me ill protect u

Hey guys, wishing you all a Happy New Year! May this year be better than the last!
With a new year comes a fresh new start; and we, at the forum, have been discussing things amongst each other to set up some new changes for this year.
As you may be aware, we’ve run a lot of activities such as Meta Monday, Naruto Polls, DDN, monthly Fic Recs, and much more; and you may have noticed that throughout the past year, the consistency and frequency became less and less.
This is because there are only 3 mods here, and irl happenings kept keeping us busy and knocking us down, so the activities became unmanageable.
What we’ve been discussing is how to change that, and how to revive the activities that you know & love without it overwhelming us; and we’ve decided that there will be some slight changes to some of the activities themselves, and the frequency will change. They will still be run regularly, but less often; and as the year goes by, we may change the frequency, depending on how easy they are to run.
But for now, here are the main changes:
Meta Monday & Naruto polls will be run bi-weekly
DDN, Fic Recs, and Creator Spotlight will be run every 3 months
Meta Monday will change from having a Meta question & answer, to simply being a question; and if the poster wishes to answer, they will do so in the comments
Creator Spotlight will no longer be seeking individual creators for interviews, but will be asking everyone questions, so everyone has a chance to talk about & share their creations
We are reintroducing Fanwork Friday, where fanworks will be recced from previous events, such as Valentine’s Weeks & Maze Challenges
These are all the activities we’d like to start with, but we may reintroduce more or increase the frequency as time goes by, however, we have other mod duties, too, such as planning & running events, and doing forum maintenance (creating new emojis, writing how-to manuals to help you navigate the site, etc.), so it all depends on what we can manage on top of irl stuff.
Thank you for being so patient with us, and we look forward to enjoying another wonderful year with you all!

I do not bother to check if Getter and Big O ever interacted in SRW because I’m so use to the other mechas I like being in the same game as getter but being so different that they never have any story reasons to have interactions since Getter is only ever allowed to interact with mazinger, OG gundam and any other combiners + it’s all in untranslated hell so I won’t even know wtf was said if there WERE interactions but god damn it I keep rotating a scenario where Roger negotiates to get Ryoma out of jail even though I know for a fact that DIDNT happen despite how many times they used arma and how Z2 actually adapted it fucking correctly for once but it’s just so funny to imagine.
#meg text#getter robo#the big o#i fucking hate being cursed with crossover ideas when in fanfics that’s ALL there ever is#big o only has it slightly better bc there are some fics but it’s by no means a active tag#and I still need to do my part in at least writing one thing for it but I’m not in the proper mood still#but I legit can’t tell if it’s hyperfixation or the idea of ryoma interacting with rogers normal ass is so funny#Roger is literally one of the most normal super robot pilots compared to the majority but especially compared to ryoma#he has a temper but by no means hot blooded and usually keeps it under control he just has a sense of justice#cue to him meeting “angriest fucking guy to exist” and he’s like “what the fuck”#Ryoma HONESTLY could have funnier interactions if they put him with people who are nothing like him#but noooo it’s always combiners or the other two “big 3” mecha it’s apart of#and I get why the whole big 3 thing in universe or just “hey are robots are similar” is cute#but it never hurts for this loner to talk to more people if they’re gonna characterize him as more laid back#(which- I don’t know how to feel about but I’m glad Ryomas other traits get some spotlight)#since it would be more flanderize if they just focused on him being angry#it still feels so fucking weird how calm ARMA is but that’s what happens when you can’t use anything else#new when will you return from the Wii dimension I don’t understand why your so unpopular

it kinda irks me that michael hobbes seemed to get a lil more of the "breakout star" status after the You're Wrong About podcast—while he & sarah have a p entertaining dynamic *together*, without sarah to balance him out, he becomes kinda obnoxious (see: Maintenance Phase), and (crucially) hobbes is the one with a much more, ah. flexible. relationship. to facts. and i like facts. so that bums me out
similarly i am annoyed that peter shamshiri was the breakout star from 5-4 because like. ok that whole *podcast* has a flexible relationship to facts, haha, but rhiannon at least offers some pretty legit #realtalk on-the-ground experience, and i always thought michael liroff's commentary was the most measured/interesting/detailed, like, i can't count the number of times liroff would be in the middle of making an interesting & nuanced point only for peter to cut him off halfway with the quick & lazy dunk
i mean yeah peter's very funny!!! i understand that's what gets listeners or whatever!!! but also: why this
