“So erm, how are we going to explain… this…?” Sam motioned around at the entirety of them with a clawed hand, an unimpressed expression on her maw.
“I mean, we could just, not do so?” Danny sounded a tiny bit uncertain about that, own claws tapping against his legs from where he sat. “I mean, Tucker seems happy enough-”
“Okay, I didn’t come here to be called out like this-”
I feel like ? I gotta remind people it’s ok to unfollow a blog when it upsets you in any way >> like if I ever do that sure, you can let me know if it was anything I did personally I’d appreciate it but if you just don’t enjoy something it’s ok to unfollow ;w; can’t stress enough how important it is to put your mental health first 👌
The further I get into Ward the more insane I feel logging onto wormblr and seeing the absolute ravine between Amy: Worm/Ward character, and Amy: Wormblr’s Little Skrunkly. Not for any particular reason, but having to hold my beloved cringefail problematic lesbian AND the deeply unnerving impact Ward Amy is having on me at the same time is about to hospitalize me with whiplash
For example, I finished 19.3 last night (with THAT scene), opened tumblr to Not Think About That for a minute, I forgot I follow Top Tier Amy Enjoyers, and this was about my emotional experience:
(Also because I went looking for it today to not vaguepost, the post I was trying to remember was a @cpericardium amy sketch, that doodle affected me spiritually and also shot me in the face /lh)
so I started playing the new Frontiers of Pandora game last night, and was pleasantly surprised that not only did the opening cutscene feature a few lines of spoken Na'vi dialogue, but said dialogue was actually pretty accurate!! Good job game!!
Here’s the lines transcribed as far as I can tell:
Aha'ri: Plltxe po nìtsleng!
He speaks falsely/he lies!
Player: Ma tsmuke, ftang!
Sister, stop!
-
Aha'ri: Ma Nor? Ma Nor, tìtxen si. Awnga ngahu, tam.
Nor? Nor, wake up. We [are] with you, it’s ok.
Nor: Tsat oel uniltsola nìmun…tsatxon a fol awngat kämolunge.
I dreamed about it again…that night they took us.
-
Aha'ri: Awnga kä ne kelku!
We go home!
Player: Za'u, ma Teylan. Oeng kivä ne kelku.
Come, Teylan. We [may] go home.
The recent influx of “Jason is obviously a bad person. Look at how many people he’s killed” posts is 2x more idiotic because it runs on the same premise as “Jason is a cop symbol”. There’s an infinitely more famous example right next to him that people ignore entirely.
In the real world killing people is a felony, just as vigilantism as a whole is too. The same way Batman is a fictional character in a fake world, Jason is not part of the real world either. I think if you’re above age 10 you should’ve moved past the stage of trying to point fingers to try to determine a right vs wrong way to do illegal vigilantism in a world like the dcu while pretending it’s a perfect model of a real society lol.
Batman enjoys maiming and crippling people (bad things). Why is he working with cops and throwing drug addicts into prison after beating the tar out of them (bad things). It’s proven in the real world that that does not do anything to rehabilitate them and in fact costs the government billions of dollars and actually worsens the war on drugs (higher mortality & crime rates, and increased spread of infectious diseases). Yet since the authors constantly spoon feed you lines about how heroic he is people just eat that shit up, disregarding the fact that it might be utter horseshit irl and his morals wouldn’t make much sense either.
If ‘character doing bad thing’ is synonymous with ‘character can’t possibly be a good person’, then that should negate the idea that Batman’s biggest trait is compassion (although I think it already does for other in-story reasons lol, re: he tends to be classist and discriminatory towards people who commit petty crimes, calling them degrading names like “trash” and “bottom-feeders”. No amount of donating to charity makes you a good person if at your core you see poor/homeless people as lesser and you get a kick out of mocking them).
There’s far more evidence of Jason possessing all the good traits the authors keep begging you to believe Batman has. He patiently fed and cared for his dying mother all alone as a small baby/child. He literally fed groups of homeless people like a mother hen everyday while he himself was homeless, brain dead, and running on basic survival instincts. After finally regaining higher functioning in his brain and discovering the joker was still alive, one of the first things he cried about was the countless number of other innocent people dead at the hands of his own killer. If the only justification you have for why Jason’s a bad person is that he kills, that’s a weak and baseless argument for obvious reasons.
