whenever 5sos go on a break or aren't active for awhile it's really weird because a lot of fans preach about how glad they are they take breaks for themselves but in the same vein will be "COME HOMEEEEE" and i think it's just really important to remember musicians and artists and actors and people with platforms are in fact REAL live people who have thoughts and feelings and hardships to deal with and it's important for EVERYONE to take breaks from social media every now and then without having to feel guilty or shamed for putting themselves first HOWEVER this may just be me idk

the biggest reasons i hate the “all octolings in the military were hypnotized by their goggles!!!” thing is that it robs the octolings of their agency.

think about it. if all the octolings in the octarian military are hypnotized, then they have no choice but to follow octavio. they aren't even capable of doing something else. and then, callie and marie have to "save" them in order to give them even the option of leaving. they kind of have to not because of anything THEY did, but because no longer being brainwashed puts them in danger. them leaving is ENTIRELY caused by other goddamn people. THEY don't have a single goddamn choice in the matter. and that's boring.

this is why it's absolutely, truly, positively, genuinely, SO much more interesting if the octolings in the military AREN'T hypnotized. because then, them leaving is a CHOICE. sure, the inkantation may influence that choice, but they still decide, OUT OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL, to leave. they CHOOSE to defy octavio, they CHOOSE to leave everything they've ever known. they CHOOSE to think, to believe, to hope, that maybe inklings aren't all bad, that maybe they were lied to. and then they leave. BY THEMSELVES. and they have to contend with that.

i don't get it. why do the octolings have to be dragged along in their own story? why does octavio have to be a megamaniacal villain who brainwashes his own people? why don't they get to have a choice? if it's choice, then they have to make it. then, they have to deal with it.

Love seeing people dehumanizing and degrade children in #feminist rebuttals.

Like, kids are full ass people, what are you talking about.

"can we normalize-" NO!!!!!! we do not need to expand whats considered normal!!! we need to teach people to stop reacting judgmentally when encountering something new and weird!!!! things dont need to be normal to be respected!!!!!!!!!!

Listen man, you guys can't be like "you guys need to be normal about asexuality" and then turn around and get weirdly judgemental when you find out someone doesn't have sex by choice. Like that's weird that some of you do that.

I hate being a person who loves bugs, I can't say anything without the person I'm talking to reacting with disgust. Today I had to literally beg a coworker for the life of a spider, and then after I put it in a nook outside she thought it'd be funny to show me a video she took of her killing one. Like idk man. Birds scare the shit out of me but I still get why people love them. They come in pretty colors and they sound nice and they're interesting to observe. I don't understand why people don't feel the same about bugs. The rich amber color of a cockroach, the iridescent glow of a fly, the intricate hydraulics that power their little legs, the chirp of a beetle, the art of the spider's web... It's all so beautiful. Why is it the habit of so many to destroy?

many things about the chronicles of Narnia made me irrevocably insane at the small age of six years old but one of the big ones was the bit in prince Caspian where caspian blows susan's horn to try and summon help and it summons the pevensie kids like. that's crazy ok. that's insane. imagine at 12 years old you're given a horn thats purpose is basically summoning divine intervention & then years later someone blows it and summons YOU . I'm crazy !
