#yeah im a hater. what about it

[kookidough]

i’m sorry but every time i see someone on tiktok making a theory about how robin’s alive in tbp2 i burst out laughing because THAT BOY IS DEAD AND NEVER COMING BACK YALL

like. i love being delusional! so much! but this is one delusion i cannot get behind! gonna debunk every possible chance of this theory being true and also get into why it wouldnt make sense from a plot perspective either. if this theory genuinely comes true and robin comes back to life in the second movie i will genuinely get a tattoo of something from tbp and i will reblog this post with a photo of it. thats how certain i am that this will not happen

first of all the most basic argument i see is that robin must be alive because miguel is coming back for tbp 2. but... flashbacks exist? robin coming back still as a ghost exists? i see people say he survived somehow and fucking clawed his way out of his grave and escaped or something but im so sorry that is NOTTT happening LMFAO if robin was alive then his ghost wouldnt be calling finney in the basement, end of story, the grabber is smart he wouldn't leave robin half fucking dead before burying him

when the detectives are giving their press conference they literally state they found 5 bodies BELIEVED TO BE THE MISSING CHILDREN. robin included! finney also can't just be hallucinating because gwen saw the ghosts with her own eyes, INCLUDING ROBIN, and the grabber heard all the ghosts (minus billy for whatever reason) on the call at the end of the movie, again including robin

and for the most peak proof of all... robin himself literally said he was dead! he says he doesn't want to have died for nothing and he wants to have at least died for a friend! HE SAID HIMSELF HES NOT COMING HOME!!! he is COOKED (thanks @staggersz for a lot of these points)

also back to the story in general, bringing robin back to life would be such a disservice to finney's development as well because robin's phone call is that final push finney needs to get himself together and face the grabber. sure that phone call could've come from any of the other ghosts but it's established that robin and finney are friends so hearing advice and the harsh truth from him helps finney get the courage to attack albert, like finneys not just doing this for himself and the other ghosts, he's doing it for his best friend who he lost when he shouldn't have, so that robin didnt die for nothing

bringing him back would also make the story messy in general. it makes the grabber WAY less threatening because if you can supernaturally bring robin back then who's to say you can't bring his other victims back..? it also just makes the in-universe 'laws' around the ghosts and the supernatural very messy and confusing like why would he be able to come back? what purpose would it serve? it just doesnt make sense from a storytelling point of view

i am very intrigued to see what role he plays in the second movie, im thinking flashbacks or finney will continue to be haunted by him but if its something different im excited to see it ^_^ unless they bring him back to life. if theyre doing that they better let me see vance too if hes not in tbp 2 im rioting okay bye

saying this as respectfully as possible but. Do not put fandom content creators on a pedestal. We are also just fans contributing to a community just as you are. We have boundary on our own work and that’s it. What I say is not and should not be considered sth the whole fandom should listen to. I’m just a normal ass person ranting about things on my blog. If it does not have a fandom tag for others to engage in, do not make it out to be me trying to start fights or addressing the whole community. Because it’s not.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again, my art, my lore talk, is biased. I’ve never tried to hide that I view Marika a certain way and will always develop my theory following that base assumption.

Aside from translation stuffs and pointing out in-game items, everything else I say you can look at it, agree or disagree, and move on to form your own opinions. Just because I draw stuffs doesn’t mean you get to saddle me with responsibilities about managing fandom expectations. What the hell? I’m a fan artist, I’m the last person who you should look at for “leaderism” (?) WHAT?

I can and will be a hater in my own space, like I know sometimes other artists will just post their stuffs and not engage too heavily with fandom, and for a while I did try to do that here (because I’m already a dramatic ass on twitter), that’s just not me though.

You will get art and you will get my opinions as well.

genuinely i think roblox becoming a source of monetary gain was a mistake, the whole front page is pretty much exclusively ai generated clickbait slop whose only purpose is to get you to spend as much as they can. like it was a cool idea at first for actual creators to be rewarded for what they do for the community and game as a whole but its been ruined by the people who make nothing games full of predatory purchase pushing and millions of microtransactions and i think the spirit of the game thats supposed to be about creating together and having fun with pals has been lost

it still makes me genuinely offended that DAVG opens on Varric narrating about Solas and going "Solas is very against slavery, one of the only thing we agree on", because i've seen people say "well yeah i hope so it's the bare minimum" and like

Literally half the cast of DAI for example, yknow, the game Solas and Varric met on, were pro-slavery in one shape or form. The one thing DAVG doesn't tell you is what Solas considers to be Slavery to start with, because it is how some companions will tell you "yeah i'm against slavery" and then will talk about somehow removing someone's freedom completely in one shape or form. Look at DAI's Solas' banters with Dorian (who's in DAVG and is a slavery abolitionist SPECIFICALLY, as said in the books, because Solas changed his mind in DAI) or with Iron Bull and you'll learn a lot.

"the one thing we agreed on" is super fucking funny from the character who has always famously been a Centrist, who genuinely didn't want to listen to Anders in da2 when Anders was talking about the inherent slavery of the Circles, and, if Hawke sides with the System rather than the oppressed in da2, Varric will disapprove of Mage Freedom in DAI, which is one of the type of slavery Solas is fighting against for example. Just because the game doesn't allow you to import Varric's past doesn't erase that Varric is a centrist as fuck.

Like sorry it's not our fault DAVG have the most innoffensive companion cast in the whole franchise that you don't know how it's like to have companions with actual offensive opinions that exists to challenge your point of view but that doesn't mean you know exactly how DA companions usually work and why it's an important part of Solas' character.

And sorry also that the game talks so little about Slavery and the multiple ways it manifest in Thedas but that doesn't mean you should just take that at face value.

"gngngn Solas being anti-slavery is the bare minimum" tell that to Varric the Centrist for fuck's sake you DONT KNOW HIM.

"The Boy With The Thorn in His Side"(x) - The Smiths × 2023 Strollonso moments + pundits' reactions

hot take or w/e: 99% of the main events of apology tour, tbh, would be better if the positions were switched.

because when you say "stoliz breakup arc where person A calls the other out for always making the relationship about sex and has an entire breakdown about how they feel the other person has never fully appreciated them in the relationship and never felt respected while the other person gets a reality check over their actions and has to realize how badly theyve been treating them" then its blitz on stage and stolas in the crowd. its the only way the plot makes sense

regardless of the whole "guys they were secretly childhood friends and um blitz was the one who actually made the first move to sex even if stolas literally leads with 'so you wanna fuck me????' so its all blitz's fault their relationship is just sex" Thing in s2 ep1.... it was stolas' idea to make their transaction of the book sexual.

he was literally the one going "hey btw i need my book back but you can keep borrowing it...... IF you fuck me into the bed until i cant see straight you sexy little fucking imp" so atp whoever first started the sexual aspect of their relationship is moot. stolas is the one who escalated it into a toxic benefits deal.

stolas is the one who consistently goes "my widdle sexy imp" and "blitzy witzy come fucky wucky with me" to ""playfully"" demean blitz without realizing how the imp doesnt actually like it. he has the power in the situation who just assumes blitz is cool with their relationship and the way he treats him.

stolas is the one who doesnt think about the societal implications of their relationship, because he puts himself in romantic daydreams and uses blitz as a coping mechanism to distract himself from how much he hates his life. he wont even consider blitz's complicated feelings on their dynamics from his perspective as an imp without stolas shutting it down like "hm, you sound TOO much like striker, so byeeee!" hes the one who needs a wake up call!

and while blitz is obviously not innocent in this relationship (avoiding intimacy, taking any chance he can get to escape dealing with his problems, blowing up and projecting his insecurity onto others instead of discussing his problems, keeping secrets, twisting it where it hurts to 'gain' one in an argument even if he doesnt mean it, etc)....

hes SOOOOO getting fucked over in this relationship. and currently, being in such a sex centered relationship with a power imbalance only serves to justify his own self-mantra that he has to be useful in order to be loved! he deserves to have a moment where he actually shakes off all of his insecurities and screams out I DESERVE BETTER! for once in his life. and not just turning to drinking or drugs or sex or living vicariously through millie and moxxie; really just screaming in front of a whole crowd like FUCK YOU FOR MAKING ME FEEL SO SHITTY!!! FUCK YOUUUUU

tldr; tops deserve rights actually and sometimes you gotta put a bottom in their place

I love that as a middle schooler i was a BKDK shipper just to be a hater cause i could not stand TodoDeku for shit and like i honestly did not care that much about them either way but i just needed to assert dominance

and now here i am senior year falling to my knees seeing the ship come back on the western fandom side and rise the ranks like WDYM??? WHERE IS JUSTIN KERPRANK HE IS HIDING SOMEWHERE AROUND HERE, I REMEMBER THE SHIP WARS I WOULD RIDE MY NOBLE STEED INTO BATTLE BRO (i just would tell my friends i hated TodoDeku and that was it, and then draw bkdk in my sketchbook)

Anyway I eat all the “Typing out my fantasy!!!” Edits online of them so hard its such a good dynamic im sorry yall, even if its not bkdk its just good. I JUST CANT STOP WATCHING ITS LIKE A DRUG SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE ME. Id like to apologize to everyone ive let down here id like to apologize im ready for the hatemail in my inbox i just need to be who i am.

Probably not gonna talk about it super hardcore fan style but know i like throw a thumbs up and like to hear how people see their relationship especially knowing their history and with all the new arcs and shit into account like yes good give me those video essays yes YESSS

[invinciblevalentine]

hojo pisses me tf off. Like yeah yeah human rights violations unethical science blah blah blah HAVE WE CONSIDERED THE DAMAGE HE’S BEEN DOING TO THE FF7 SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY????

Listen he’d be a morally grey character if his work led to reproducible results that could benefit the rest of humanity but GOOD GAIA does he not even do that.

his sample sizes are SHIT. his experimental design is SHIT. his documentation is SHIT. his biases are VISIBLE. I’m astral projecting into the ff7 universe just to strangle this man and take away whatever diploma he got bc clearly he hired someone to do his PhD for him.

AND HE INSPIRED SO MANY TO FOLLOW IN HIS SHITTY SHITTY FOOTSTEPS. like the only two things we could even marginally call reproducible is his work in making the SOLDIER program and Fuhitos attempt to replicate it with his RAVENs. and even then there were no improvements on the procedure or attempts to create a procedure that left the patients in better health.

which is a CRIMINALLY STUPID THING TO DO TO YOUR GIANT SUPER SOLDIER ARMY. WYM THAT INSANITY IS JUST A POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECT?????

an argument could be made that we just don’t SEE hojos documentation and shit bc we’re playing through the eyes of people who don’t know all that shit.

HOWEVER. if hojo was actually doing any of that he’d have spotted the degradation problem in his animal models first.

BECAUSE WHO THE FUCK JUMPS YO HUMAN SUBJECTS??? ITS NOT JUST UNETHICAL ITS EXTREMWLY EXPENSIVE TO MAINTAIN THE WELLBEING OF AND ACQUIRE A WHOLE HUMAN PERSON.

if he’d started with, like, mouse models to demonstrate how mako treatments affect mammals, he’d have gotten so much more work done and achieved more reliable results. WITH A FRACTION OF THE COST.

BUT NOOOOOOOOOO. APPARENTLY SHINRA SHITS MONEY SO WHO CARES ABOUT SAMPLE SIZES AND STATISTICAL TESTS AND REPRODUCIBLE RESULTS!!

HOJO IS A HACK AND A FRAUD AND A SHIT SCIENTIST TO BOOT. WATCH YOUR BACK BITCH YOUVE HOED YOUR LAST JO.

the idea that jc is the main character of mdzs is so nonsensical its almost laughable to me honestly. he couldve been /a/ main character if mxtx had focused the narration around both wwx and him. it wouldve changed the story to be the tale of two brothers instead of being primarily a love story but all the components of the existing story couldve remained intact as one half of a two sided story. however even then he wouldve been one of two main characters. ive thought quite a bit about it over the years since i read mdzs and i cannot think of any way to tell the events of the story with jc as Thee Main Character™. the main plot is driven by solving a mystery that jc had a passing knowledge of, at best, so even if mxtx had focused the pov entirely around jc the way she did wwx, it would be debatable if he was actually the main protagonist or if he functioned as an outsider pov to the main events. i mean that wouldve been an incredibly interesting choice and i wouldve had sooooo many Thoughts about how he’s barely the protagonist in his own story, but thats not the choice mxtx made

not particularly a laishuro guy, but I'm so fuckin annoyed seeing the amount of hate he's getting.

I saw one dude literally joke that marcille should have been allowed to call toshiro a bunch of asian slurs, which is telling.

wtf???? how is that a reasonable conclusion that anyone could come to 💀💀💀💀💀💀

[cerealmonster15]

i was lookin at a few vids about the bg3 dream visitor romance [spoilers if anyone's still early game i guess lol] and like i was so shocked people were, like, so upset and betrayed when they discovered the dream visitor's true form fksdjgkdljf like okay i forgot not every corner of the internet has monsterfuckers and also i guess normies are playing this game. and ALSO it reminded me that the % of players that even have the steam achievement of sleeping w/the emperor at all is so low. 12.7%. why is everyone a coward. i'm not even a self proclaimed monsterfucker. i dont like sex and im mildly phobic of tentacles. WHY IS EVERYONE A COWARD!!!!!

tho to be fair probably a lot of ppl are also romancing a companion and wanna be faithful - ive only gotten to that scene in multiplayer where none of us were in companion romances so it was guilt free go for it see what happens, in the discord call all together LOL..... then we had a lover's spat after the raphael fight 😑

Call back to that one comment in the "evil as can be" karaoke parody and someone casually stating that Killbot 86 was from WanderOverYonder only for someone to reply with a hatred toward Killbot 86 all because he "jumped on peeper"
