#striking vipers black mirror

[oceanivoxjoquainx]

Watched Black Mirror for the first time in my life. Why you might ask? Cuz I saw Anthony Mackie being gay and frankly that is my religion. So I settled in and watched Striking Vipers and got a face full of Mackie ass and a bunch of homoerotic vr e-sex. God blessed.

Went to see what folks had to say about the kissing in the rain scene and saw a bunch of cishets saying that Karl and Danny were still STRAIGHT and had NO FEELINGS?!?! Please. That was a scene taken directly from the DL repressed feeling play book.

Karl thought Danny was going to say he felt nothing so he said he didnt feel a thing. This resulted in Danny looking confused and hurt and him replying back he also didnt feel a thing (cuz why would you admit feelings to someone who claims they felt nothing?). They're fighting cuz neither of them were brave enough to admit they're feelings translated to real life and I promise if those police didnt roll up then they wouldve kissed just like they did in the video game.

If they had NO feelings for each other, why are they STILL meeting in game to have e sex? Danny literally was about to end his text with an x and Karl was screaming crying and throwing up during their off period. Them men are in love with each other your honor and I dont wanna see anyone saying other wise!

Black Mirror “Striking Vipers” S5E1 (2019)

[dkettchen]

Did I expect the black mirror s6e3 robot astronaut episode to turn into a transphobic hate crime metaphor this quickly rather than just a working from home metaphor? Nope.

Did my frantic googling (while trying to avoid actual spoilers) to see whether the “tragedy” the plot summary was on about was gonna be some world ending cataclysm that would upset me prepare me for this? Oh it sure fucking didn’t, so this is a PSA for y’all now

You know that kind of cursed episode of Black Mirror: “Striking Vipers”

I know there are criticisms

And I watched it so long ago, not even having had come out as non-binary yet but so close on the verge

Hell, I watched it with other queer and trans people

I wish that was us so badly

Except that it was us both virtually and in real life

I wish we tried with other people to recreate what we had

I wish we fought about it

I wish you told me you loved me

I wish we ran back to each other, acknowledging that we loved other people, but our love was still AS important

I wish… it were real

:/

I deserve a lot better than a fantasy

“san junipero is the gay one” striking vipers? nosedive? bandersnatch? HATED IN THE NATION ???

[artificialcaretaker]

“Just fucking kiss me, man” is a quote that imprinted itself on my brain and like theoretically it’s not the CRAZIEST thing somebody could say but to me it’s very loaded and emotional. But it comes from a plotline that involves a guy cheating on his wife by having gay e-sex on Street Fighter so I also dunno how to feel about it.

Striking Vipers Black mirror

[just-little-confused]

I'm watching the first episode of the 5th season of Black Mirror, and all I'm going to say is that I don't think that Karl and Danny know how fighting games work. That is not fighting... it starts with "f" but it's not fighting. I'm halfway through the episode, and it's pretty good, but I sure did not expect this, but it can still take a turn, I guess

[halalgirlmeg]

That wig is aweful

[yoyoyoyoyoyooooo]

Striking Vipers is SUCH a trans heavy story and I'm shocked and surprised that it isn't discussed more.

Like yeah. Karl and Danny ARE straight. Because Karl is a woman. Karl loves being intimate as a woman, and Danny loves being intimate with a pretty girl who understands him on a personal level. That's why the irl kiss didn't spark anything.

Black mirror sounds way cooler than I realized, I thought it was just some stupid show about vr or somethin

WE GOT ANOTHER ONE LADS

[jesstasticvoyage]

It's not gay to suck a guy's dick if he beats you in a video game first. Those are just the rules of being a gamer.
