I don't understand why the RPF girlies are so obsessed with hockey when the soccer dudebros are straight up making fancams of their favorite Messi ships on tiktok

My Unpopular Opinions of 2018

This is messy, a bit mean, and full of my mad/irritated feelings. You’ve been warned. No slipping into my asks as an anon to fight with me because I’ve posted this on my account. These are my opinions and I’ve already said that they aren’t that nice to some shows

1) Charmed and Black Lightning are the only good CW shows and it has the best lesbian rep of 2018 (and Rosa from b99 would be the best bisexual rep)

2) Melanie Scrofano/Wynonna Earp is the best part of Wynonna Earp. Honestly lately the rest of the characters for me have either awful or boring or funny but given nothing to do

3) Also even though she’s the main actress, Melanie is somehow the most underrated actress/character in the show. She’s disregarded by so many fans, either in favor of Wayhaught or Doc, and the show treats her like shit by constantly putting her with Doc

4) Descendants fans who pit Dove Cameron and China Anne McClain against each other in the hopes of making the other seem superior are doing absolutely nothing for their careers and are contributing to the unnecessary comparison between successful women

5) Also I don’t care if you don’t like Dove Cameron, but hating her for that Mal/Harry comment she made months ago is so fucking ridiculous. She’s a girl in love who also loves her character, god forbid she make her own headcanons for it, and it wasn’t like she was asking for it to happen (and no she wasn’t disregarding Mal’s current relationship Ben because she was talking about Mal and Harry being exes god damnit) 

6) I can’t believe i have to say this in 2018 BUT STOP WITH THE INCEST STORYLINES! IT AIN’T CREATIVE OR SURPRISING BITCHES JUST GROSS

7) ALSO STOP SHIPPING INCEST GOD PLEASE STOP

8) Timothee Chamalet or whatever his name is, isn’t that great. Like he’s fine I guess but like....Have you seen other actors? I mean, there’s Fady Elsayed, Jack Black, Jordan Renzo, Greg Austin (rip Class), and so many more actors that are, in my opinon, significantly more talented

9) Letterkenny and Galavant are the best comedies out there

10) Riverdale is shit for erasing Jughead’s asexuality and queerbaiting fans at the beginning with Beronica 

11) I’ve said this before, but people disliking Cole Sprouse because of the abuse allegation against him is incredibly valid. 

12) Mike Flanagan, Jordan Peele, and Kate Siegel are the only people I trust to write some bone chilling horror stories 

13) The Haunting of Hill House is better than American Horror Story and The Chilling Adventures of Sabrine combined 

Now it’s time to get serious.....

14) I have no respect and cannot get along with people who talk about how ugly people are 

15) The hellsite is shit for so many reasons but some of its worst qualities are when people take a situation and make it black and white, have zero sympathy or empathy for other people, and twist peoples words and put in meanings that were never there

16) I also hate how how people only care about mental illness when it doesn’t come to their jokes or memes. For example, mental health has been talked about a lot in regards to Ariana Grande, which is good, but once her engagement with Pete Davidson ended, no one hesitated to attack him in almost every way possible even though the man has been very outspoken about his depression. I don’t know shit about Pete Davidson but I’ve seen him relentlessly be attacked and have his depression and suicidal thoughts be joked about. 

17) Stanning is a fucked up culture that we need to leave behind in 2018. There are some celebrities who have a lot of projects that I love and I admire their talent, but the concept of stanning either includes an unhealthy amount of devotion to a celebrity or it erases them as a human being and reduces them down to objects. In some cases, both of these are true. It’s a sick thing for both fans and the celebrities. If a celebrity does something wrong, call them out, and if they don’t listen, well forget it or move on. Cancelling them as if they can be thrown in the garbage and disposed of promotes negativity and hatred, which is doesn’t solve anything, and it can inhibit any growth from that celebrity. They are human and will inevitably fuck up. It’s the only way to learn and grow. 

18) This is about Wynonna Earp but it’s a serious post. I’ve made my thoughts about this show abundantly clear but there is one thing I haven’t talked about at all and that’s the racism in the show and in the fanbase. Disclaimer: I am white. This show hasn’t treated any of their poc or black characters well. The latest example would be the treatment of Dolls and Kate. The last two seasons Doc has had two women of color as his love interests, and both of these characters have been treated as objects to make Wynonna jealous. There is also the lack of story and villainization of these women. There is also the major lack of story with Dolls, which most likely led to Shamier Anderson’s decision to leave. I won’t get into anymore, this is how I’ve always viewed these poor storylines, but I will say this: white fans of Wynonna Earp, we do not get a say on how black viewers should feel about any of these storylines. White lesbians, you would be livid is Waverly or Nicole were killed, and rightfully so. Black people or people of color probably felt the rage you would’ve felt if you lost one of those characters when Dolls was killed off. Telling people to get over it is cruel. If people want to stop watching, that is their right. We have no place in telling them how they should feel about the treatment of their representation. 

19) I made this post a while ago but it holds true: https://uhhhhhhokay.tumblr.com/post/179314393735/shows-with-good-lgbt-rep

20) Everyone needs a break from social media. I know that for some people, it really helps because we have friends on here that we can talk to, but it also has so many negative effects. The real world is nothing like this toxic website. You should take breaks from it every once in a while. You need to get hobbies. You need some other past time than this website. The majority of people on this site aren’t good and everyone should take a breather from it. I take breaks from this site on a regular basis and when I do it feels so fucking good. 

21) Random but The Lodgers is the worst movie ever and it’s an even worse horror movie. Would not recommend. Unless you feel like roasting something for an hour and a half. The only good part about watching that movie was that I watched it with my roommate who I am good friends with and we laughed our asses off and made fun of it so much. It is truly awful. Even though I had a blast roasting it, I will never get that time of my life back. 

22) The Last Jedi does not deserve that 91% on rotten tomatoes. Just like how The Lodgers deserves far less than 56%.

23) Time to get serious again. I get that a lot of us wished that the shows we loved were real, but they aren’t. That’s a fact that everyone needs to realize and accept. To me, hating an actor for their character’s actions is just as fucked up as stanning. They aren’t their character. They are not responsible for the shit their characters pull. They are carrying out the story written for them. As for writers, sometimes the writers do not support their characters actions either. Just because the character is evil or mean or whatever does not always mean that the people who work behind the curtain support that. 

24) Shipping real people and harassing them is sooo inappropriate and messed up. I shouldn’t really have to explain this one but too many people on this site don’t seem to grasp it. I mean, didn’t Harry Styles say a while ago that all the smutty fanfics, tweets, and fanarts about him and his bandmates effect his friendships with him? Him reacting that way is not homophobic, btw. It is him reacting naturally to people fetishizing and sexualizing him and his friends. These are real people. Their relationship, sexuality, and god just so much of their lives is none of our business. They don’t owe us any information about their personal lives. We don’t own them. They are their own people, which also means that they make their own mistakes. 

25) Random again, but original Charmed fans put their show too high of a pedestal. I never got really into show. I tried it, think I watched half of the first season, and I did a little research on it and I was in the fanbase for a hot sec but it was very short. From my research, it seems to me, that for a feminist show, the cast (except Shannon Doherty) was the opposite behind the scenes. I know you can’t help who you don’t like but you can control how you talk about someone, especially to the public, and from what I’ve seen there’s been more negative comments from them about their castmates than positive. I don’t think anyone will know the whole story but to me the feud between the og’s leading ladies has always very catty to me, and it’s gotten even worse with the remake. You can be protective of your show without being rude. You don’t have to support the remake, and you can do that without being rude either. By the way, this is more directed towards Holly Marie Combs, who I believe has been the most outspoken about being against it. Three young actresses are doing the job they love and they were given a chance to be the new charmed ones for a new generation. There is no reason to be so negative about it. It looks even more immature when you see the cast of the original Sabrina who gleefully gave their support to the new cast. 

26) Adults please stop thinking every show is for you. it’s not. Some shows are for kids, some shows are for teenagers, and some shows are for you. If you enjoy the show that’s directed towards a younger audience then that’s great. If you don’t enjoy it, then that’s fine too. What is not fine is you acting like that show was meant for you and tearing it apart and bullying people of that directed age group online. I can’t believe the amount of times I’ve seen some 19-40 year old dipshit on the internet go and bully a 15 year old only because they said they loved a show. That is not only sick and immature but it’s uncalled for. 

27) Also 15 year olds or younger, do not use your age as an excuse to be mean either. You might be young and you will definitely make huge mistakes, but there’s is nothing to justify you telling someone to kill themselves or insulting them just because they don’t like your favorite character or something. You might not be as experienced as some adults, but you’re old enough to know what the fuck you’re doing and how wrong it is. Don’t be cruel and blame it on you being young and stupid. You maybe young and all of us will always be a bit stupid, but that does not excuse your behavior. And @ older people who do that shit too, your older age and power does not excuse your cruelty either. Nothing excuses telling someone to kill themselves. Ever. Especially if it’s over a goddamn tv show. 

28) Can Ryan Murphy please just make one tv show and stick with it until it ends? He has so many great concepts but because he wants to do all of them at once they all go downhill after one season. 

29) On the same but different note, fuck Ryan Murphy for having Violet and Tate get back together. My girl deserves better than a serial killer/rapist that also got her mom killed because he impregnated her with the anti christ. Fuck that.

I never intended this to be so long lol no one will read this

30) The Hormone Monster is literally a metaphor for hormones. Stop twisting it into pedophilia. That show is so sex positive and is so much better than most of the sex ed that we got. 

31) Let’s leave monster fucking behind please

32) Puzzles are a treat to do

33) Funko pops are cute but they make a lot of dumbass decisions regarding which ones to make (like I saw pops of that new nutcracker movie a while before it was released like maybe wait and see how it does first????)

34) Also lets stop thinking of ships/shows as a way to up yourself as more progressive or whatever. We all have our trash shows and ships, stop acting like a saint. Just because someone has a trash ship, does not mean they are lesser than you. 

35) Fanbases are usually always trash. This didn’t change at all in 2018. 

36) Class’s first season was significantly better than Torchwoods first season. You guys are just mean. 

37) While I adore Class, Patrick Ness’s dialogue was really YIKES sometimes (the Charlie April deleted scene nearly killed me). Overall it was good though because it was the closest depiction of how teens speak.

38) Also any teen drama show that has a teen speak seriously in a hashtag should burn in hell (if a hashtag is used in dialogue as joke then it’s fine because it’s funny)

39) An actor being on a show you don’t like does not warrant hate

40) It’s been two years since Class but still, fuck the dw fans who were/are so mean to the class actors, especially Vivian Oparah and Sophie Hopkins. 

I think that’s it.

the excessively detailed headcanon meme ( accepting whatever i haven’t already done )

this got long, so the answer to questions i haven’t yet done are under the cut. for my reference : this post has headcanons about organization and cleanliness, goals, home / family, and processes for feeling better when drained, and wasting time.

5. Cleanliness habits (personal, workspace, etc.)  & 23. How organized are they? How does this organization/disorganization manifest in their everyday life?

andrei would like to think himself as very organized and cleanly, and in some aspects of his life, he very much is. everything has a place in his home and work space, and when he does tidy things up, he does it meticulously —- all of his books are ordered alphabetical by author’s last name, he takes special care ot ensure all the dishes are totally cleaned off, he makes sure there’s nothing lying around on the bed, desk, or on any chairs, and if there is, he puts it where it belongs.

that said, he’s also very absent minded when it comes to mundane things like day to day cleaning, and when he uses things, he does not always remember to put them back, but instead will use them and move on with whatever is occupying his mind, because putting it back is an interruption to what he sees as more important matters. things build up, and eventually, andrei is left in a moderately disorderly space that, while everything is generally organized, it still isn’t necessarily pristine, and he doesn’t often bring himself to clean it up. some spaces of his end up in sort of an ongoing cycle, then, of clean and messy —- his study or study space being one such location.

it’s not uncommon to go into one of his prefers spaces, then, and to find little things are out of place —- a sweater thrown over a chair, a cuple books left off the shelves, some possibly still open to the page where he left off, writing utensils around wherever they’d ended up. all of it will end up back in place eventually, but not right away. 

in terms of the actually cleanness of everything, andrei either relies on others to maintain his high standards, or himself devotes at least half an hour a week to ensuring things are basically clean. he hates doing things like dusting and sweeping the floors, but he understands the benefits, and he’s very responsible, so if he has to do them, he will, it will just be in an annoyed and rather quick way, as to minimize the time he spends doing mundane things.

7. Favorite way to waste time and feelings surrounding wasting time.

first things first, andrei hates wasting time, sees it as completely useless, and thus avoids as much as he is able the feeling that he is wasting time. he doesn’t like to be idle, and it takes a lot to make him comfortable doing things that don’t really have significance ( he’ll only really give his time over to meaninglessness for someone who he’s very close to, and even then if it’s important to their relationship, it’s not really a waste of time, is it ) and whenever he finds himself not occupied by something that is actually important, andrei will try and make tasks for himself to keep busy.

he genuinely likes to spend his free time reading —- andrei is incredibly well-read and has a lot of interest in books, having read more than what most of society has heard of and is familiar with. even if he doesn’t remember everything, he picks up knowledge from books very efficiently, and will generally be able to grasp and remember the main ideas of texts that he reads. he likes writing and responding to those ideas as well, as it makes him feel as though he’d done something useful with his time.

and when someone is important to him, and they’ve nothing to do, however they ‘waste time’ will catch his interest, even if he doesn’t genuinely like it that much —- he’ll never be one for parties or large social things, but otherwise, if he really cares, andrei will try and engage with what his partner likes to do when wasting time, even if it won’t matter to him. it’s a way that he shows his care, doing something that bothers him and trying genuinely to accept and enjoy it.

15. Biggest and smallest short term goal?

andrei’s goals are pretty verse dependent —- in my main canon verse, his biggest short term goal is to have bogucharovo finished completely and functional, and his smallest one is to have the supplies in his study replenished —- he uses them frequently, and so they deplete very quickly. in my main modern verse, his biggest short term goal is to do extremely well on whatever text or assignment he has due next, and actually, his smallest short term goal is the same as in canon, he is in a perpetual state of needing to buy himself some new pens because he runs through them so quickly.

25. How do they see themselves 5 years from today?

earlier in his life, andrei always wants to see himself at the head of some great command in five years, and he does believe that he deserve it, however whether this is actually a personal goal, or something he’s that passionate about, is hard to say. andrei wants glory because he wants to love that accompanies it, from both society and the military, and because he has expectations to meet with his family, and so personal goals are kind of impersonal for him. he wants success only in that it will bring him happiness, and so where he sees himself in the future will always be based on what he thinks will make him happy, and thus isn’t set and moves around a lot in canon. only at the end, when he’s hunting down anatole, does andrei have no real vision of himself in five years, because he doesn’t really care about living, and thus is no longer planning for the future.

modern andrei is a little more set with how he sees himself in five years, because his life is under greater control of his father, and so he has less in deciding what he wants —- it’s important to his family that he has a military career, and so in five years he sees himself enlisting or recently enlisted in the army, working toward some sort of command. that’s not what he wants ( he wants to be living a quiet life with someone who loves him, and whom he loves dearly in return ) but this isn’t realistic, and so he won’t allow himself to really think about it.

29. Reaction to sudden extrapersonal disaster (eg The house is on fire! What do they do?)

andrei reacts impulsively and not always intelligently to sudden things like this! when there is a disaster it rises a lot of panic and emotion in him, and so he won’t freeze up, but instead will put himself right into action without much thought on the actual usefulness of what he’s doing. he just has to do something. for example, at austerlitz, he’s all around disaster, and when he sees the russian flag fall, it’s something very significant to him and so he rushes in and picked it up to carry it —- he won’t do anything effective, and he doesn’t have his weapons out or any real experience in the fray of battle, but he reacts regardless to what he sees as a disaster.

33. Concept of home and family?

home —- the nature of how andrei grew up, moving around estates occasionally and then going on a long tour of europe, means that home is not necessarily tied to a physical house or location, even if that seems more convenient. while he does have preferred residences ( he quite likes bogucharovo, as bald hills has a lot of bed memories for him ) whether or not they could be called home in the sense that he has a deep emotional attachment to them is questionable. his estate is, to him, more just a place to live with a few safe spaces within it, but he doesn’t feel particularly moored to it.

for andrei, home instead can be truly found in a sense of belonging and comfort that comes with very close interpersonal relationships, which through canon he doesn’t necessarily have ( we’re going to talk some blog - only content for this, because this is largely headcanon based ) and that he can only find by becoming deeply familiar to someone. with that attachment, the spaces that they share can become home. for example, anatole’s room starts to feel like home for andrei as their relationship become more serious and more genuinely loving. bogucharovo starts to feel like home when he starts to get close to izolda as well, and thus begins to attach their relationship to that estate. that saying —- home is where the heart is —- applies to andrei in a very deep and important sense.

family —- overall, there is very little that is more important to andrei than his family, and if he does label something as more important ( glory, or love ) then it really is super important to him. andrei feels of family that they are a part of himself, an extension of who he is. he doesn’t consider them others, but instead thinks of his family as a group of people who, through attachment, are the same as he is, and thus must be protected in the same way. his son, for example, is his reason to live after losing lise and dealing with austerlitz, and he is patient with masha and his father in a way that he is not with anyone else —- even pierre does not get from andrei the level of patience that andrei extends to his blood relatives. when he says that he lives for himself, he means that he lives for himself and by extension his family —- he will do almost anything for them.

andrei’s conception of family, however, is very traditional and very much tied into formal familial relations —- people who are his family are either his blood relatives, or have officially married into the family, and thus become like blood relatives. he isn’t the sort of person who will consider a lover or a very close friend family, because that’s just not within the range of what he thinks as a familial relationship —- and on the other hand, if he has a partner who he doesn’t particularly like ( like izolda, for example, at the beginning of their relationship ) he’ll still consider them family and extend to them some of those same benefits even if he doesn’t really love them. he doesn’t need to love family in that active, kind sense —- that they are family automatically earns them some degree of love, in spite of faults and disagreements.

both —- because of how andrei conceives of home and family, they become pretty closely linked, though not so much so that they can exist separately. his home, for much of his life, was wherever his family was, and so when he feels homesick, it’s really more about missing his family. however, these two can also become detached if he feels a greater love for someone outside his family than he does for his family members —- which of course, would likely never happen simply because his conception of real, consuming and rapturous love is so idealized that it is impossible for him to consistently feel. in any case, both mean a lot to him and are highly significant concepts in his life.

39. What recharges them when they’re feeling drained?

to be fully honest, short periods of solitude and quiet are the best ways for andrei to recover from social and emotional exhaustion. he finds people to be extremely draining, and so the absence of people naturally allows him to have some peace and quiet, and to just escape things like noise and touch and emotions. and as much as isolation is an unhealthy coping mechanism for big problems, solitude is good for him with small things. andrei is, after all, still introverted ---- he values his alone time regardless of whether he needs it to recover, and he likes being by himself.

complete and lasting solitude, however, do not help constantly, and after he’s had some time to himself, being alone with someone he’s comfortable with can help him recharge socially and feel less drained ---- he tends to feel, when he’s trained, emotionally very low, and having someone to comfort him and treat him lovingly can bring him out of the depths and make him feel a little less low.
