#they really validated these freaks

Due to Disney and Lucasfilm's cowardice, we've reached a troubling point where racists and bigots believe that harassing actors from different shows will lead to cancellations if their loud hatred is met with success. Their tactics have now been validated by the cancellation of The Acolyte.
The Rings of Power and actors were already facing hate for bigoted reasons, but now it's evident that the same kind of targeted harassment (from the acolyte) is being used as a blueprint to get other shows canceled. I'm deeply sickened that Disney and Lucasfilm have enabled this behavior. As a result, any show or film featuring Black actors is now likely to face similar harassment that’s 10x worse after what happened to The Acoylte.
We need more big publications to hold Disney and Lucasfilm accountable for fostering this toxic behavior. Maybe if they become the face of the bigotry and harassment, they might start protecting their actors.
#all they had to do was just believe in their show and let lesyle finish what she started#I’m so angry at this whole situation#they really validated these freaks#the acolyte#rings of power

free will is drawing ur two favorite characters together and making them gay
#akekita content in this economy? it's more likely than you think#this is like for the three ppl that ship them (me tumblr user haliai and atlus)#also which boyliker at atlus designed yusuke's phantom outfit like WHY is he dressed like a gay hooker 💀💀💀💀#the skintight spandex bodysuit designed to show off the slutty waist?? the exposed cleavage?? the cunty little fox tail?? bro 😭#my hand was shaking while i was drawing the second img it felt so IMMODEST 😭😭😭😭😭#i wish atlus confirmed which highschool akechi went to bc i love the hc that he attends kosei#his tie matches hifumi's ribbon so i think they're trying to tell us smt (im delusional)#ANYWAY akechi and yusuke would match each other's freak lowkey like they're both hardcore yappers that weird everyone else tf out#akechi would find solidarity in the fact that yusuke doesn't shut up abt whatever he's interested in#also also the fact that akechi is a mirror version of him bc they're victims of the same situation#both being exploited and utilized as tools after their mothers death#by the man they called father in exchange for validation or a false sense of place#but ultimately yusuke was saved by phantom thieves while akechi refused any pity and slowly succumbed to fate of his own making#really makes you look at atlus and think whats going on in their buttery smooth brains for not including other character interactions#aside from the social links with joker. the wasted dynamic potential between some of the characters is insane 😭#persona 5#p5#yusuke kitagawa#kitagawa yusuke#goro akechi#akechi goro#akekita#bro me when i stay up until three am drawing persona instead of finishing my lab (i’m beyond cooked 💀💀)#i think i need to switch college majors i can’t keep doing this#lotus draws

"Ansbach is so level-headed and tame compared to characters like Varré, he must have been the only sane member of the Mohgwyn Dynasty!" OKAY SO while I find that idea certainly funny, I don't think it's 100% accurate
First, Varré is a missionary-- he kinda needs to be over-the-top in order to seduce the Tarnished into joining the dynasty.
Second, it is heavily implied that-- while maaaybeee not a bloodthirsty zealot-- Ansbach was certainly not. Innocent? (i don't know the words to describe him lmao)
"Markedly different from the finessed swordplay of the dynast, this is an aggressive last resort of an incantation that gave rise to Ansbach's fearsome reputation." (Ansbach's Furious Blade)
"...But an old fear lurks beneath, together with the cold, unflinching discipline that once honed his blade, now employed to enhance Blood Oath and dynastic skills." (Wise Man's Mask)
Ansbach was a cold, vicious, and SKILLED fighter. Dare I say he may have been one of the most feared knights in the Lands Between before he was charmed.
#not at all criticizing people for thinking this way btw!!!!!!#i LOVE Ansbach don't get me wrong#And i also think the idea of Ansbach being the ONLY sane guy in the Mohgwyn Dynasty is actually really funny and also... valid#oh and Varre too. Sure he probably plays into it a LOT but he's definitely still a Freak (affectionate)#elden ring#sir ansbach#mohgwyn#mohgwyn dynasty#white mask varre#varre

heartbreaking! one of your favorite artists makes fun of y/n fics!
#never not a whiplash 😀#like i get they're not for everyone ofc but it often feels like reader inserts are such an easy target and it's tiring tbh#treated as something that often doesn't get taken serious in fandom spaces#which you can argue how serious fandom should be to begin with but making fun of someones creation is such a big no for me#just really shows that you're a shitty person imo LOL#there's a difference between bitching to your friends in private (valid thing to do) and doing it in public#with the intention of kicking someone down for something YOU don't like. something YOU can just close the tab on. skill issue#like why don't you indulge in a little maladaptive daydreaming and enjoy the whimsy of the world instead of spreading negativity#this and some of the most lifechanging fics i've ever read were reader inserts#idk. reader inserts ily. you can pry them from my cold dead hands#don't wanna go on a full on rant in the tags i guess i'm just really sad over getting disappointed by someone i admired#gonna hit that block button and show some love to my fav writers instead <3#if you're a y/n writer reading this please know that i love you and everything you do. write your heart out get your freak on just live ok#-`♡´- tulip mail

man you gotta love how people will shout from the rooftops how autistic laois is and then in the next breath call him a little freak that no one can possibly understand the perspective of
#this is sarcasm.#laios touden#thinking about the one page of him saying he'd like to be eaten by monsters when he passes#and people being like lmao what a fucking freak#like it's not fully in line with his character for him to want to be consumed by what he loves#like it's not perfectly in line with the rest of the manga's themes about the food chain and cycle of life#like people on here aren't talking about how they'd like to be buried under a tree#like i don't think there's a better real world analogue than that#because there's not really a real world thing that eats humans like there is in dungeon meshi#but in dungeon meshi monsters eat humans!! that's a valid food source for them!!#it's entirely reasonable for laois to want to contribute to that!!#and do not tell me you are calling him a freak affectionately#it has passed the point of affection#if you are calling someone a freak because you cannot understand their perspective#you are not calling them a freak affectionately

"are people not into that?" i ask, after posting my weird niche shit to the internet, despite knowing it to be weird niche shit.
#jsyk sylkius or anything adjacent to it does not “Do Numbers” in any way and i observed this some time ago#i assume that's the “rival ships” element at work but who knows really#that sort of thing is like femslash in that everyone approves of it but nobody actually reads or writes it#but who would have thought sylvie beating loki with a stick would not bring in droves of readers???! shocking twist there!#& i don't consider sifki a rarepair but my rarepair standards are VERY strict like if there's >5 fics a pairing is basically mainstream#chasing popularity would annoy me though & i just don't have the mental spoons to try writing stuff i wouldn't personally read#yeah i *could* put my blorbos to work in a coffee shop but what cost to my own enjoyment levels? AT WHAT COST FANGELA???#you can't please everyone so you may as well just please yourself and if anyone else likes it you've found some fellow freaks so yay#i don't mean please yourself in a wanking sense. though feel free to do that too it probably counts as a cardio workout idk.#BUT ANYWAY#fic related#ps i am v glad there's the “warning: loki” tag because i think/hope it acts as a filter for 'he did nothing wrong in his life ever' types#who are Valid & etc obviously but i write my morally grey characters to be morally grey and the tag might help avoid conflict#though tbh i write almost every character to be morally grey in some way so i can't claim to have left my comfort zone here#(i'm not joking when i say the 1987-89 run of Dr Who shaped my entire future fannish life from a young and apparently v impressionable age)

twitter has poisoned this fandom i fear ... we used to be a community..
#rambling in the tags#i know many people here are twitter refugees#many of whom never experienced spnblr in its true prime#save us 2014 tumblr save us#there is so much spn fandom infighting now i cant#ppl used to be annoying and hateful way back when too but omg.... we used to be a community#like now its samgirls dont like deangirls (which??? are we not on the same side here???)#its deans a horrible evil person this well sams a toxic person that and destihellers and wincesties cant just get along#or just enjoy each others content#like i HATE THAT !! i hate the dean hate from samgirls i always despised the sam hate back in the day from mainly destiel shippers#(which ive seen WAY LESS sam hate since ive come back recently its mostly DEAN hate whether its wincest or destiel shippers)#and people werent calling each other disgusting freaks for shipping one thing or another#destihelllers have always been annoygin that much i will say but seriouslu#we used to be a FAMILY#now its whos character/ship the most valid/morally “correct” wars#i love that a lot of thoughts and opinions and ships and things have matured so much since 2014#truly its beautiful how much more detailed and nuanced the thoughts and ideas and opinions on the show are now that weve had like 10 years#to think and stew over this stuff#but theres just so much like. fighting and arguing#the spn empire has fallen in on itself#shouldnt be surprising#which im not really surprised just sad and idealistic#nostalgic for the days when we all loved all the characters and i didnt have to see “takes”#thanks a lot twitter.com#spn#ham.txt

lbr some people are too stupid to read ulysses
Anything's possible...but as long as we're being real, how many people have even tried? It's just like with every other goddamn thing—folk on here make posts bleating about not knowing foreign languages, not understanding poetry, not reading challenging books, and not being able to sit through “slow” movies. If they actually wanted to do any of those things as badly as they say, they'd make more than a preliminary effort before getting discouraged and going back to scrolling their phones. Fortunately, most of these things will still be there, in case they decide to give themselves permission to actually engage with them, and it'll be embarrassing how quickly the very process of discovery yields up joy and meaning. If, at the end of all that exploration, they should read Lolita and confidently declare that it glorifies pedophilia, we can talk stupid.
#people may protest that they DID make an effort and then my eyes may turn pitch black and i may say#“did you? did you really? your best effort? or did you freak out as soon as you broke a sweat and run home?”#people pretend to be stupid for a lot of valid reasons that are neither interesting nor any of my business#but incuriosity is the force at play#anonymous#assbox

Stop im rewatching why dan is leaving me bc of ur post theyre so disgustingly domestic i adore them
sometimes i watch that video just to feel something
#you are so valid for that anon#theres something about the energy of that video that really gets to me#theyre filming cause its promo and its good clickbait and its silly and fun and Them#but its also For Them yknow?? theyre like we're gonna talk about how we're gonna be apart for the longest time since we've known each other#AFTER 13 years of knowing each other#just even framing it like that really is wild. but its exactly what happens. and they're both on the same page of yeah its a long time.#which. it isnt That Long but it IS for them yknow!#the silly intro phil does in front of Dan's closet. and it starts with dan going oi if you're crying about me it better be a long video!#its goofy and ridiculous. theyre in this bouncy happy uncertain mood. because theres gotta be some adrenaline with it but also appreciating#each other while theyre still there together. then its the complete lack of intro to dan bc come on now its dan you know him. obviously.#& then its the 'sphere' convo and im like bitch. he wants to touch you cause youre leaving!!! let him!!#then dans genuine shock at the swear like mans is down BAD. and then the teasing! the so real plant teasing. but also general life concern#the heart cactus makes me feel some type of way okay#the sheer domesticity of the stair convo and the ps4 struggle#and how phil turns it right back on dan with the selfie incident and dan is bashful about it.#and how phil just. gets to say that dan cant shower in the bus. bc it freaks him out. & ofc dan wont stress him like that.#(also the closet rifling. something dan's 'nice to know you do. in a dark drawer somewhere' vs the lacey shirt being lacey underwear idea)#the bathroom being very clearly a shared space.#goddd theyre sooo smiley and soft and i Cant#dnp#c.text#dan and phil

got told today that i’d make an excellent nurse because i have “a nice calm energy” and honestly? i am so fucking grateful to have been told that because i so often feel like a disaster
but to know that i am holding it together and seem like that whole “be like a duck” mantra of calm on the surface, paddling like crazy underneath is really reassuring. i doubt myself far too much and i know that- i know that i am able to be calm and collected and handle stressful situations with grace and poise. it’s just extra reassuring to know that other people see that
it makes me feel like i am on the right path, that i’ve chosen the right career and education and that i’ve picked something i am capable of doing and doing well
#ramble on exie#hate that i need so much external validation sometimes#but it really does help me restructure my own thinking#especially because i have been spiralling back into anxiety over it all after booking my casper test#it’s the reminder i needed to sort of snap myself out of the spiral. i tend to get way ahead of myself sometimes and then freak myself out

#OK I NEED TO STOP engaging with 911 ship wars but i have ONE MORE THING to say (probably lying)#i think it’s genuinely concerning how many people believe a ship has to have years of emotional connection before you’re allowed to ship it#like. imo you should be allowed to ship characters for any reason#crackships and rarepairs exist for a reason#secondly and probably more importantly#i think it’s really weird how many people are uncomfortable with the idea of gay sex#not in general but like#people were saying they were uncomfortable and weirded out because#an actor vaguely insinuated that the fictional character he plays would enjoy having gay sex with his partner#like people were calling him a freak#I THINK THATS WEIRD AND CONCERNING#it’s giving ‘my ship doesn’t have sex they make love while holding hands’#i think it ties into the first point#relationships are allowed to be built off attraction#you don’t need years and years of bonding for your relationship to be valid#and i think the visceral reaction against bucktommy because they’re not besties who share a kid is borderline homophobic#like there are plenty of valid reasons to dislike tommy and bucktommy like tommys previous behaviour#but being sooo against a ship based on the fact that there wasn’t enough ‘build up’ and that they don’t have a deep emotional bond#weird#and i don’t think it’s fetishisation to enjoy a canon couple im sorry that’s just a fucking crazy take#like it’s insane to me that apparently enjoying a gay ship is fetishisation unless it meets certain ‘emotional bonding’ criteria#also bathena is one of the most beloved ships on the show and their ‘build up’ was one date and a church hangout#and no one claims that they’re rushed and underdeveloped and that’s why one of them should be written off the show#like i said i think there’s a lot of valid reasons to dislike the ship (even if i do enjoy it)#but some of the arguments i’ve seen are just weird and i think you guys need to look at why it makes you uncomfortable#engage with other fandoms with more diverse ships and maybe you’ll calm down a little#911 discourse#for clarity the tumblr fandom seems to be okay but 911twt is an actual hell scape

trying to lay out my interpretation of why brad and judy are simultaneously awful and really goddamn sad, beyond just having lost their baby under traumatic circumstances as already-traumatized autistic young adults with zero support system left but each other, is wild because it includes in full seriousness the word 'sheepnado'
#sdmi#scooby doo: mystery incorporated#brad chiles#judy reeves#tl;dr they are Like That in large part because pericles fucked them up in a very particular way#that made them dependent on him to give them cues for what to do and validation for the results#and when they suddenly had that ripped away they dealt with it by just making a closed loop where they follow each other in circles#in order to make one semi-functioning adult with a semi-functioning ability to actually choose to set out and do things#nothing else really *matters* to them outside of that fragile closed loop (and christ it is fragile); they set up a steady source of income#and then just fuck off to go effectively be alone together for 20 years; amassing and perfecting a bunch of random skills#because they are both very intelligent in some ways and Need to Stay Occupied; but what else are we gonna do#just aimlessly follow each other in circles and there's no room to actually choose a direction from there#and if anything breaks the closed loop; or doesn't fit into a hesitantly expanded version of it they had in mind#they freak out and they lash out at it even when they're pretending to be cheerful and unaffected#and the only real reason they *did* have to act on caring about something outside that feedback loop before--fred#ended up *being 'sit on your hands and do nothing for 20 years'*; when they are border collies climbing the walls without things to pursue#then suddenly that's gone and they can go care about fred again! except Oops now there is a force influencing them whose entire thing is#'induce artificial craving for Thing.' they try to love fred but they also resent him for being why they spent 20 years with nothing to Do#especially when things are Different now and he's his own person who doesn't really mesh into a closed loop with them; instead of the baby#they could have imagined whatever they wanted about all that time. they are desperately exhausted with caring about fred#and deeply traumatized by having done it; & at this point when a ball is waved in front of them to go fetch that they aren't burned out on#they go 'fuck it sorry kid you come second this time.' and then he *very purposely* cuts ties w/them & therefore any possibility of a loop#and they stop caring completely and lash out instead; especially because the person who fucked them up like this in the first place#has waltzed back into their life and snapped his fingers for them to heel. now they're great tools for his agenda including abusing ricky#'he's a genius right brad' 'my loyal brad and judy' siding w/pericles despite ricky having been a more reliable choice who explicitly treat#them as equals and doesn't constantly insult them and talk to them like pets. and then when something as small as Looking Different breaks#that one last most supposedly dependable loop they had they break down and start lashing out at each other. they 'behave like children.'#there's so much here man. they suck so goddamn bad and they fuck me up. thinking about the oldgang for the rest of my life

I really need to find a new job. But like. What if I curled up in bed on this rainy afternoon and finished rereading The Scarlet Pimpernel instead.
#ragamusings#i freaking hate job applications and the job market and my lack of college degree and online job searches#and needing to be paid more than my conservative upbringing feels is valid bc i can't pay my (tiny really) bills otherwise#so let me just live in chapters about marguerite and percy and the league instead

im gonna answer the other ask later but TRANSFEM SCARY I WAS. ALSO THINKING HBBBGNN
#willy goes both ways abt such things bcus. one he is a misogynist and a homophobe or at least was on earth. obviously#and he still holds you know that. hypermasculine toxic mindset as of s1 based on the uhhh#“overly feminine namby pamby” whatever he says#(kicking myself for not having it memorized)#but i assume that he encountered more variable things in the forgotten realms that may have made him more normal abt. gender variance there#god okay i. hes not. he has an opinion of “you can be a freak if you want whatever. ill play pretend with you. ill tolerate it.”#i really like transmasc ron for similar reasons.. of.... especially when they meet in the cabin where hes cooking fish#and willys like “thats right get some bass in your voice boy !!”#like i know its just regular like. ron isnt masculine enough. but it reads very sarcastic....#“get some bass in your voice” like . you wanna be a boy so bad okay. ill humor you. hahahah. man up then.#um but transfem scary i like a similar. thing. of.... tolerating her being a girl and playing along but always being.#kind of chiding about it.#im so worried were not on the same pagw#which is fine obviously but i get so shy abt when. someone offers me headcanons that i dont agree with and i have to be like#“hahaha yeah whatever you say” like i cant say anything back cus its Wrong to me. BUT.#god though yeah her. visibly being hard around him & its both deeply sort of gross but very flattering to him like. i can work with this...#i think of him as a. opportunist. hes not into cock & not into kids really. dwindling upwards of teen girls but eh.#so when a cute troubled teen girl is literally. offering herself up to you at your feet man its like. why would i say no !! ♡#hes more into taking advantage of her than any of her personal details you know. like her as a person doesnt really. matter. who cares#shes available and stupid and looking to him for advice and validation.#sorry again i havent LISTENED TO ANY OF THIS. I CAN BE WRONG#didnt anthony make the joke abt willy not being brave enough to try pegging. maybe this is his chance#who said that. who. said that#you really want to manipulate a teen girl then you humble yourself and suck her cock and shes yours forever.#im crazy. im crazy#.dxt#scary
