I'm really not a villain enjoyer. I love anti-heroes and anti-villains. But I can't see fictional evil separate from real evil. As in not that enjoying dark fiction means you condone it, but that all fiction holds up some kind of mirror to the world as it is. Killing innocent people doesn't make you an iconic lesbian girlboss it just makes you part of the mundane and stultifying black rot of the universe.
"But characters struggling with honour and goodness and the egoism of being good are so boring." Cool well some of us actually struggle with that stuff on the daily because being a good person is complicated and harder than being an edgelord.
Sure you can use fiction to explore the darkness of human nature and learn empathy, but the world doesn't actually suffer from a deficit of empathy for powerful and privileged people who do heinous stuff. You could literally kill a thousand babies in broad daylight and they'll find a way to blame your childhood trauma for it as long as you're white, cisgender, abled and attractive, and you'll be their poor little meow meow by the end of the week. Don't act like you're advocating for Quasimodo when you're just making Elon Musk hot, smart and gay.
#this is one of the reasons why#although i would kill antis in real life if i could#i also don't trust anyone who identifies as 'pro-ship'#it's just an excuse to shut down legitimate ethical questions and engaging in honest self-reflective media consumption and critique#art doesn't exist in a vacuum#it's a flat impossibility for it not to inform nor be informed by real world politics and attitudes#because that's what it means to be created by human hands#we can't even make machine learning thats not just human bias fed into an algorithm#if the way we interact with art truly didn't influence anything then there would be no value in it#just because antis have weaponized those points in the most bad faith ways possible#doesn't mean you can ignore them in good faith#anyway fandom stans villains because society loves to defend and protect abusers#it's not because you get the chance to be free and empathetic and indulge in your darkness and what not#it's just people's normal levels of attachment to shitty people with an added layer of justification for it#this blog is for boring do-gooder enjoyers only#lol#knee of huss#fandom wank#media critique#pop culture#fandom discourse

it’s literally so funny how whenever I talk about my cis ablebodied friend the biggest saddest fucking losers alive on this site start sending me hate anons like “so you literally love cis men more then trans women? wow disgusting” with absolutely 0 self awareness
#just say you think trans men only exist for your personal use and get the fuck off my blog lmfao#I’m going to be friends with whoever I want actually because I’m a human person who lives in the real world and has his own feelings etc#I’m not just your personal fucking punching bag sorry!!!!#imagine seeing random strangers being friends with each other and thinking ‘ugh twansmisogyny :/‘ and you aren’t even a fucking trans woman#ugly fucking ppl on here

My best friend and I moved in together with his closest friend from his MA program, and while I had met her before (the friend; my bff is a man), we hadn't spent much time together because I've never lived away from the West Coast (and only two years out of the PNW) and she's never lived outside of North Carolina and only briefly visited the PNW once, when she went to Portland last year.
It's been a delight to show her around the PNW and realize we need to explain things that are just sort of omnipresent in our lives. The bff and I were casually griping with each other about having to run an errand to Trader Joe's at an inconvenient hour, and were telling her, "it's okay, you can stay in the car and avoid the people if you want" and she was like "NO I MUST SEE IT, I'VE ONLY HEARD OF THEM" and nearly ascended to another plane when we showed her around the store.
The bff and I grew up in the same town in NW Washington (him for his first 18 years, me from 9 to 19) and he lived in Bellingham and Seattle for years before he went to NC for grad school (I went to the SF Bay Area for mine, a very different experience). Both of them are hardcore coffee aficionados, but he struggled with the different Coffee Ways of the South, so for the true PNW experience they want to tour various indie coffeeshops next.
Also, she adores Kaidan in Mass Effect and we were like, oh, is your passport up to date? We could take a trip sometime and show you your boyfriend's beloved English Bay. It's very beautiful :)
her: O_O
me: Actually, it's worth going to Vancouver BC for its own sake as well, it's truly spectacular. We used to go all the time as kids.
bff: And Victoria!
her: O_O
#as much as i very openly love my homeland (read: the pnw. sometimes the whole west coast) at all times#it is truly special to experience it through someone who's never lived anywhere remotely near here. she's never seen vegas or seattle or la#we were super hungry after moving stuff yesterday and the bff was like 'i'm not sure i have a real restaurant in me...#let's just pick up some stuff from jack in the box'#her: 'what's a jack in the box?'#even the department store chains we're used to are different#also she's queer and was concerned about having queer friendly dating options out here and we're like '...oh sweetie'#and since she's from eastern nc we were also explaining that the pacific ocean up here is not like the atlantic#her: 'what are your hurricanes like?' us: '... we um. don't really have them'#then we were like... i mean rainier's lahars are going to melt seattle someday but these are infrequent events#and there will be seismic warnings. even mt st helens gave some warning!#i think the only disappointment for her so far was our building codes (she's very into proper infrastructure)#the roads are nice but our buildings are not designed for combating nature by her standards#it's interesting because we're so unused to the idea of nature as generally something to combat#in fairness someone from say astoria might think about that differently or in very rural areas. but in the parts we're familiar with#usually 'natural' dangers are 'poorly timed human fuckery' and things like rain generally come as friends#like yeah don't go antagonizing a bear or cougar or moose or whatnot but you'd really have to go out of your way#anghraine babbles#cascadia blogging#the adventures of space redacted#anghraine's gaming#us american blogging#i should probably have a bff tag#long post

If i start posting dc stuff on here, it means i lost the fight w myself. The demons won. Im sorry
#chattin#realistically i will be making a diff blog for it#bc its. its alot. and i dont want to engage w the fandom via posting#maybe.#but i def dont want to talk to anyone in there#there are so many white people from ohio in that fandom. ill die for real#ive ALWAYS liked bman and supes stuff. i just. well#theres too many comics. its too confusing. theres too many shows. too many contradictions#and really dogshit movies that are too grimdark for me to enjoy#prob the only fandom where i have to cherry pick the things i like out of the main series things#to make a story and set of characters i like wo making it feel overwhelmingly ooc#also. u cannot give me alien characters and NOT make me go insane#but no one is interested in it in the way i am. like w specbio stuff#this is what happenee w d/bz too. like where is the love of making goku a little monkey freak of nature and not Human w Superstrength#all the freaks are hiding from me. where are they…🥺#i dont care about canon lore for why clark is more human than youd think#thats BORING. more emphasis on the sun affecting him please.#i was about to write some incredibly suggestive specbio shit and realized thats not appropriate in these tags for This post#just know that i care. i care so much. all my alien ocs are weird. and i wanna do the same w supes#and i wanna do the sawe w the little mans#and i want to write humans dealing w the little things that remind them that hes an alien#the kitty eyes glint in the dark. the almost nonexistant heartbeat. standing motionless for hours at a time#weird vocalizations when hes ‘sleeping’. weird vocalizations that come out when hes happy or spooked#the way he flies. the way hes both indestructible but incredibly lightweight (or dense if u prefer)#ugh#ill make a blog for it. bc its gnawing at my brain now and it wont leave me alone

reminder to newcomers that if your blog has no posts, no profile picture, no header, and your blog colors aren't changed, i and most other people will take that as you being a bot and will block and report you as spam if you follow us. go to your profile and click the little paint pallette and give your blog a makeover real quick or if that's too much just change your blog title to something like "not a bot". i really recommend the makeover though because that's much more fun even if you don't want to reblog and you're just here to lurk.
#and if newcomers see this: we had a huge bot influx in december-ish where a lot of us were having up to a dozen bots following us in a day#it took ages for it to settle down but for me theres only one or two a day now#and because ive seen people arguing for leaving their bot followers: follower count doesnt matter in the slightest on tumblr#no one can see the numbers and it doesnt boost your posts. all leaving the bots does is possibly let them spam your posts#with malicious links. they do nothing and thats why we block and report them and when you leave your blog completely empty#that just makes you indistinguishable from a bot when you follow someone and your blog may eventually be deleted if its reported enough.#im saying all this because i think im ending up blocking quite a few humans lately and i dont want to block real people#come join the party but theres just one rule: you HAVE to show signs of humanity. even if its just a simple ''not a bot'' in your bio.

My stress dreams almost always involve zombies but last night was a new and horrifying twist. Awake, I see connections to the Reavers from Firefly, but in-dream it was a dreadful and brand new reveal.
#my life#you think you’re running just from a bad man but instead there’s Existential Horror#zombies only make me that afraid in dreams because the rational thought is gone#like yes they’re scary because they’re gross and no one wants to be eaten alive but.#not to sound like a tumblr post but. a bear could eat me alive too#zombies aren’t special that way.#as a kid I was terrified to the point of not being able to function about zombies and I conquered it by coming to grips with the fact that#ultimately disfigured humanity - while revolting - should evoke pity#and I genuinely don’t believe zombies like the movies are compatible with God’s universe and therefore are not a real threat#the particular mystical horror of the zombie can be conquered by separating the merely physical from thee metaphysical#and embracing the idea that physical suffering is ultimately as nothing for the Christian for whom eternal glory awaits#yes I take this too seriously you shouldn’t be surprised do you even know me at all??#this is the taking things seriously blog!!#my dream journal

The thing about writing gay books is that there are people out there who will go around 1-starring every gay book they see. And so when your gay book about sapphics with swords battling a diabolical warship AI becomes more visible, as it's featured in upcoming release lists, you have to just... take the hit. Grin through it. You see That Guy and see all the other books he's 1-starred and You Know Why.
This has happened every time, all the way back to my very first book. Now it's happened to my seventh. I know these things even out in the end, that one rating is one voice in a chorus, that ultimately what matters is that the book IS visible and the people who'll love it will find it.
But, man. It got under my skin the first time. It got under my skin today. I'll never not have to take hits from That Guy.
#and the only thing that helps is being able to tell people who understand#so hi tumblr#blog#the real solution is to never look at ratings but the author is unfortunately human

Seeing all the harrassment that trans women are receiving on this site from terfs
Get the hell out of wlw and yuri communities if youre going to treat transwomen lesser than human
#crimemew has been revealing awful anons and just.#what the fuck is in your water bottle if you think it's okay to harrass a real person as an anonymous user#no wonder why this site is infested with $wiftiəs because the CEO loves white women terfs#as someone whos not even trans. get the hell out of fandoms that have a huge wlw following. you cant even be a decent human being.#not meant to be a informative post but this is my only message @ anyone who follows this blog#it's literally 2024. transwomen exist. stop trying to villify and harrass transwomen.#tagging as#vent#just in case it feels like one

...I’d make you look, I’d make you lie, I’d take the coldness from your eyes...
𝐵𝓊𝓉 𝒴𝑜𝓊 𝒯𝑜𝓁𝒹 𝑀𝑒: ‘𝓘𝓯 𝓨𝓸𝓾 𝓛𝓸𝓿𝓮 𝓜𝓮, 𝓛𝓮𝓽 𝓘𝓽 𝓓𝓲𝓮’.
[v.1-v.6] Some gaps left to fill in ✏/✏ The answers would not have any weight on the LO𝓟 content.
The Law 𝟘. I thought I'd somehow learn something that'd drastically change the way I feel about... quite the opposite. More questions now to Venigni, Sofia and Manus, rather than to...
What Is The Principle Of ‘Communication Through Ergo Wave Lengths’?
What Is The ‘Ergo Amplification’ Effect?
Is Romeo's ‘Deal With The Devil’ About Becoming A Puppet?
What Is The Interval Between The ‘Deal’ & The ‘Experiment’?
Does The Creator Still Work With The Organization? 𝒫.𝒮. It Is Coherent On A Short-Term Basis, ‘Former Colleagues’ [+ Before The KD]. Systematically? Doubtful. Why Would He? If Not Only As A ‘Compulsory Measure’. ✒ The Creator And Manus' Goals/Views Are Fundamentally Conflicting. ✒ & His Skeptical Attitude is Plausible, Persuasive. ✒ Not To Mention The Leader Of [The Alchemists] ‘Praise[s]’ The PD. 𝒫.𝒮. Which Exactly Causes Carlo's Death.
Rhetorical Question. Why Admonish 𝓟? ‘Read’ Geppetto's Mind? Think You Know? Leave It Be.
A plan that is complicated to proceed, a combination of provoked events and ‹fortunate› circumstances, generating one genius technician's intention growing stronger each day... or all at once. It matters not.
Despite everything he observes, discovers, hears from others, the boy is eager to be with Geppetto, to reconcile x make him happy. Even at the cost of his life, even if that happiness will not be theirs. 𝓟's Creator, his Trigger, his Father gave him the reason to. The reason to feel like a real human. Because of the man's craft, he regrettably missed the time for Carlo in the past, but it's 𝓟's present that does define him... Our crippling, gentle, disorienting, astonishing present.
LO𝓟 is a great writer's philosophically fond tale taken by great minds & implemented in the form of melodious x glamorous ideality, NOT destined to burn the ‹core› of this tale to dust. Something that intense cannot be an illusion.
...With the full force of a dying star ~ I will find you, If you’re near or far, wherever you are...

Way back in 2019, I was deep into my Sonic hyperfixation when I started shipping a little rarepair called Espighty. Nearly 5 years later it's still a rarepair, but hey, at least I can draw them now!!

I want to make Agere specific ocs so bad I just don’t know where to start or how to share them because I am terrified of showing my art so that’s definitely not going to happen but I want to connect with people in the Agere community who have OCs and draw our ocs together and stuff! It’s hard!
#I have ocs that I headcanon as regressor/CG but I want some specifically for Agere you know?#there’s a difference#but I want to make some specifically for this blog#but I don’t want to post my art because I don’t want people to find my main#because that scares me real bad#and I can’t commission anything because 1 I’m saving money#and 2 my parents would find out#but it sounds so so funnnnnm#I know I could just write stuff but I love art#and drawing my ocs with my friend’s ocs would be so cool!#I’m also having a difficult time coming up with a concept#do I make a fandom oc or an original story?#do I want a human or something else#anyone have any tips or ideas?#sfw interaction only#sfw agere#sfw age regression#age regressor#age regression#agere blog#agere positivity#quizzyrambles

Holy cow.
TIL the word for how a word or a name is pronounced is written as "pronunciation". I really thought it was "pronounciation".
Pro-Nun. Well I love Arknights Specter.
That reminds me some years ago I was absolutely bamboozled by "similar" & "available", I thought those were written as "similiar" & "avaible" .
My life is a lie.. all this from being curious on how to pronounce "Berrien County Jail".
#English struggle#i'm in shock#This is so unreal#It can't be real#Idk man#Til#Tbf I very rarely use those words#Trying to justify the ignorance lol#What is grammar btw I try to not use “but” in front of a sentence but actually I don't care that much#And I keep using abbreviation on is am are despite the formal sentences because of muscle memory#I also can't stick to one term between “human race” and “humanity” despite it's the same word in JP because idk#I'm sincerely sorry for the translation quality in this blog but you know what I like doing this for no good reason#The good ol' tag rambles that I never experienced b4 because this is my first Tumblr account actually#I'm suffering from something that I want to know too but psychiatrists don't exist in my country#But it's most likely laziness#I'm not making masterlists immediately and prev all next links are also due to laziness#I forgot to say that I'm not planning to ruin Fennesz reputation believe me he's still the whole cinnamon roll bakery & sweet guy & like to#Wow so only 140 characters for a tag

dude is just not smart
#i mean if you have a blog entirely dedicated to “discourse” then what can you expect#love that he can just decide that using queer is never ever a slur no matter what and say that being tme doesnt affect you#while also having several different instances of transmisogyny on his blog or thinking he has the right to joke abt certain things#its like ok so you just like the word fag because it makes you sound special#or edgy or whatever#with zero real care for the actual lgbt community at large#like maybe there are people that dont like to be called queer because it is still used as a slur in Most Spaces#also btw hes like “I literally talk abt [transmisogyny] on this blog” but i like did not see a single post referencing trans women#aside from a post where he was getting mad at ppl for being mad that he made some shitty transmisogynisyic joke that he took back later#maybe being obsessed with “transandrophobia” is an insanely moronic thing to do and maybe you have to accept#that you are white and not hypervisible to humanity and have similar problems and experiences to the people similar to you#but still have the ability to exclude transfems from spaces#and are actively doing so by talking the way you do on your stupid ass blog#god. white trans men thinking that they're exactly the only people that have ever experienced oppression that gets ignored by society#drives me fucking crazy#im sorry but you are not special.#the toothpaste flag icon on top of all of this just to really remind everyone that hes a lesbophobe whenever hes talking ever
