Feanor’s Legit Family Issues
Look, i’m not saying that Feanor was a swell guy to be around (especially his step mom and half sibs) (with the only exception being nerdanel and his sons of course (good dad and husband feanor for the win))
But if i, and only i, had been the only child whose parents were divorced and father remaried in the entirety of the country, AFTER my mom died in childbirth(specifically mine), and then chooses to not come back to me, specifically bc of the gods in order to let my dad remarry a woman who’s been mooning after my dad since before my mom died, and to have all that essentially be thrown in my face constantly bc people gossip and rumors spread,
I too would have an enormous inferiority complex and be ready to throw hands at any given second, whether it be at my father, his family, or the gods themselves.
Let Feanor be angry and frustrated with his family situation, bc it’s a legit mess and no one should have expected for him to just “deal with it” when he was a kid when this all went down and no one had any idea what to do.
(Ps, friendly reminder that they didn’t have therapists at the time and were essentially only just starting to really create a stable civilization, so no one would know how to deal with this situation, especially since it’s literally one of a kind, and it looks like the finwe fam was not that good at communicating)
#feanor#the feanorians are a mess#finweans#finwe#valar#silmarillion#it’s a fucking mess#feanor is just a guy#not evil or good#just trying his best#it’s ok for him to have emotions that aren’ positive 100% of the time#he’s still a good father and husband though#finwe should take notes#no seriously#finwe needs to get his act together#ngl i’m giving indis the side eye#there’s just something anout her#that rubs me the wrong way#i do feel bad for finwe and indis’s kids though#they did not sign up for this#neither did feanor#also#valar!#square up!#why are you like this?#conservative cunts#miriel#you also have a responsibility to your son#jfc it’s a mess#they all need therapy

i'm always a bit unsettled by disdain for intellectual or creative labor in leftist spaces. there's this commonly held belief that academics are a bunch of rich old white men, rather than a wide variety of people who are barely getting by. most lecturers in universities are adjuncts living paycheck to paycheck. authors make very little money as a general rule. most researchers are overworked and underpaid. and yet there's still this idea that academics are overcompensated to sit around and smoke cigars together while making shit up
#seeing the response to the plagiarism video of 'this is a victimless crime' rubs me the wrong way#these are your fellow workers who are having their work stolen by people making considerably more money#and by and large the people whose work gets stolen are the people who the plagiarists think they can more easily steal from#namely people of color and especially women of color and lgbt people of color#especially the poorest among them without substantial backing or large audiences

#slay the princess#I know this is out of nowhere but-#Sorry someone just sent me a crazy take and this is the only way to cope.#Reminder! The devs themselves said that they see all endings as canon!#Do not send authors messages if their fic/interpretation/posts did not align with your canon!#Fun fact! I only became interested in this game *because* the devs said that#So people saying that that interpretation is wrong… kind of rub me the wring way.#So just to confirm:#Saying you interpreted the game's relationship as romantic and healthy: Cool#Saying anyone who interprets the game any other way is wrong: Not Cool#meme

Recently I watched this tiktok about writing disabled characters and one of the tips was that your character's disability needs to have a plot point/purpose in the story.
As someone who's disabled, let me explain why I don't agree.
Now obviously if you want to add that plot aspect go ahead (within reason and respectfully) but I don't think it should be required.
Because it's not accurate. In real life, there's not a plot point/purpose of me being disabled. It's simply just how I exist. My disabilities don't serve a purpose. It's just how I am.
And I think that implying that disabilities need to serve a purpose goes down that slippery slope of "your disability is only acceptable if it benefits something somehow" or "this disabled person is only valid because their disability can help others in some way, be exploited maybe"
You wouldn't say this about any other trait. Or at least perhaps you shouldn't. People who have certain traits or other aspects of them are literally just existing, not to serve a plot point.

also can't stop thinking about his use of the phrase 'shelf life' like lewis is some commodified product he could sell, put a price on and dispose off when no longer needed like...it is disrespectful if not downright cruel to refer to someone like that let alone your own fucking driver who is still driving your fuck ass tractor showing up and not saying one bad word against you
#idk rubbed me the wrong way#'shelf life' bro that is your fucking athlete who you employed and who is still part of your team#won't even mention the legacy he's leaving behind for you to reap the rewards off still my god#lewis hamilton

DC supervillain of the week who traps the justice league(in their league disguises) in a reality tv show like love island. it airs on tv and everything like they use supervillain powers to forcefully broadcast "love island: justice league edition" while the supers have to try and figure out how to escape. during a personal squabble wondy steps up and says "everyone calm down, we're all a team, we each have our strengths and weaknesses, we need to work together to solve this" and then it cuts to her talking head segment and she says "im not a fan of green lantern."
#actually im not sure who diana would dislike i feel like she projects an air of being Above All That#but there are some green lanterns i think might rub her the wrong way. isnt one of them sexist due to being an Old Comics Character but the#got phased out so it just left the impression that the character never grew out of his slimy behavior or something?#i cant remember the GL drama. sorry i have yet to find someone that makes me enthusiastic abt the GLs so i forget the lore#but i know there's a GL everyone hates in fandom. so lets say she doesnt like that guy.

The thing that I feel like people need to understand about whump is that it’s inevitable that some people are gonna be into it sexually and it’s inevitable that for some people it’s also a kink and it’s inevitable that some people fantasize about whump scenarios. And that’s fine. There ain’t nothing wrong with that, if that makes you uncomfortable you don’t have to interact with those people, there is a block button for a reason.
But just because it makes you uncomfortable don’t mean it’s wrong or bad. You can’t come to a community for weirdos, that runs on art and writing made by weirdos, and then get all upset when hey! There’s weirdos around here! The person who writes whump because they think it’s hot ain’t more weird than the person who writes whump because it helps them vent, and that person ain’t any weirder than the person who writes whump just because they think it’s neat. By the standards of most people outside the whump community, we’re ALL weird for enjoying it at all, so there’s no sense in getting all high and mighty because you believe you enjoy whump in the most pure and moral way possible, unlike those “degenerates” so to say. And honestly, if you aren’t mature enough to understand the simple fact that just because someone likes something in fiction, or just because someone likes to fantasize about something, that absolutely does not mean they want it in real life, then you probably aren’t mature enough to be having these discussions about whump/kink and whether it’s “okay” or not if someone gets off to it anyway.
#whump#inspired by various posts I’ve come across that just rubbed me the wrong way#whump community I love you#never stop writing fucked up stuff please#(the term ‘weirdos’ in this post is used affectionally btw)

I wish people didn't list "they still live with their parents" as a reason not to like the younger love interests in stardew valley.
Like. It's a small town, where do you want them to move into? Surely they can't all bunk with the farmer. Rent would be even higher in the city and the only one who seems to express a want to live there is Sebastian. Even then, it's more out of a desire to escape his dismal family life than to actually leave Pelican Town.
Where would they even get the money? Abigail's taking online college classes, Sam's already working part time at Jojamart, Sebastian's the only one out of the ASS trio with a semblance of a conventional "day job" but freelance doesn't pay consistently.
Pierre, Shane and Harvey all talk about barely scraping by, and they all work full time. Shane doesn't even have his own place to live in.
It's also worth mentioning that whether or not you live alone shouldn't be a measure of your maturity. Where I'm from it's the norm for many adults to still live with their families, so I never thought it strange that they'd be living with their parents.
If you don't like any member of the ASS trio because they act immature, that's another thing and at that point it's just down to personal preference. But I really don't like it when people cite their living situation as part of the reason.

So I got in the mood to read some merlin fanfic as one does and I choose one that I thought sounded interesting only in the first chapter the author made the... particular choice of implying the servant Arthur bullies in the first episode was being bullied bc he was a shitty servant heavily suggesting that Arthur was in the right for bullying the servant so anyway I don't think I've ever dropped a fic so fast in my life
#merlin#arthur pendragon#its a very petty thing#but oh did it rub me the wrong way#i just nope#not for me thank you

Broke: it’s desires, not fears
Woke: it’s both, there’s more entities than TMA
Bespoke: there were never multiple entities to begin with and the reason all of the entities needed to come together to start the apocalypse is because there’s only One Entity that the avatars can’t agree on how to worship correctly
#plot twist: they seem all jumbled together because they’re all just one thing#and that one thing is being displayed in multiple ways#I just don’t think the situation in tmagp is different than tma#I could be totally wrong#but it really rubs me the wrong way when people say tmagp is more jumbled than tma#because they’re both jumbled#the magnus protocol#tmagp#tmagp spoilers#tmagp theory

extremely funny coming from writers whose characters return and play major roles in more than one game. yeah sorry guys we couldnt do anything interesting with the game because we had to protect our fans from the conflict we would write if we did <3
#veilguard spoilers /#these arent my screenshots btw im old and dont know how to use bluesky#weekes REALLY rubs me the wrong way. i dont like their writing enough for them to be acting like this. mary kirby can get away with it#just about because i know she kind of means it but weekes' obsession with being the person that writes drama / twists is kind of juvenile#like we've all had that writing phase lol#likr what is this. you sound like a teenager talking about the supernatural finale#also the alistair comment is kind of not true at all. he can die in dai but his cameo in da2 is a really good example of choices in#the previous game having consequences in the form of a small cutscene? seeing him drunk in the bar the first time#i played da2 and KNOWING it was my fault was so good

i’ll be honest i think we put way too much emphasis on ragging on people for who they’re not attracted to or don’t wanna have sex with than just making sure people are treating people they’re not attracted too with the same level of decency and respect that they give to people they are into. like i think it’s very important to deconstruct why you might not be attracted to fat people, or masculine lesbians, or trans people, or people of races that are not your own, but at the end of the day our brains are weird as hell and we ultimately have very little control over who we end up attracted to. but what you do have control over is how you interact with and treat people that you’re not interested in. this is not even to mention that being attracted to a certain feature doesn’t even necessarily mean that you’re treating those people with respect!!!!
i can only speak to my own identities, but at the end of the day i don’t care if you’re not attracted to me because i’m fat or because i’m trans or because i’m masculine. what i do absolutely care about is that you recognize that just because i’m not your cup of tea, doesn’t mean those qualities are inherently unattractive and doesn’t make me any less deserving of respect and kindness
#anyways merry christmas#i’ve just had this thought jostling around for a long time#there are plenty of things i’m not attracted to but 1. that doesn’t mean i’m gonna go around talking about it because that serves no purpos#and 2. i’m not going to treat people differently just because i don’t think they’re attractive#it for some reason rubs me the wrong way when i see posts that are like ‘if you’re not attracted to fat or trans people than kill yourself’#because hey guys guess what#if everyone was attracted to fat people fatphobia would still exist#bork bork!

"The only person who can save you is yourself, don't rely on anybody else!"
Actually, what has saved me is books and my favourite video game and my cats and my friends who I've shared late nights and too-early mornings with and the dew-covered grass I walked on on the way to a competition bus in ninth grade band and the sunburn that kept me out of school for days the month prior.
I understand the viewpoint of how you are ultimately the person who can save you, but don't discount that you aren't an island. You aren't meant to be your sole savior. Let others save you, too. You are worth the care and love the universe has for you.
#mental health#mental health advocacy#like i understand why people say that!!! i do! i was abused and i know how hard it is to hand your heart to somebody else#but you don't have to be alone in saving yourself#i understand the cathartic feeling of climbing your way out of hell and spitting on everybody who put you there#like i dunno sometimes the way people say this just rubs me the wrong way... like we aren't supposed to be saved by others#like we aren't worthy of shared pain/joy and must keep it inside#ALSO WEAR SUNSCREEN. THAT SUNBURN GAVE ME SECOND-DEGREE BURN AND I COULDN'T WALK
