the fandom @ a male character written to be an unlikeable villain: he's so babygirl, my pookie, he did nothing wrong, why can't i romance him
also the fandom @ a female/nb character written to be complex and assertive but overall sympathetic: she's a bitch and i hate her, she's so whiny and mean, wish i could kill her
#this isn't about any fandom in particular but an amalgamation of multiple ones#but what triggered it was seeing an opinion that da:tv flopped because its lgbt characters were written to be unlikeable#clearly meaning taash because they're the only one people blame the fall of the whole franchise on#there's a difference between you personally not liking a character and them being written to be unlikeable#especially when male characters are never held to such a high standard#and even the ones written to be unsympathetic villains still gather plenty of fans excusing their actions#this is by no means exclusive to dragon age it happens in every fandom#y'all are claiming to be feminists but clearly can't unlearn your internalized misogyny#and before you say that you disliking a female character isn't misogyny#you're right it isn't#but disliking them for traits/actions that you don't mind seeing in male characters is#and yes taash is nb but it's clear some of you see them through the lens of them being afab#and if they were a cis man you wouldn't have nearly as many issues with them being 'mean and blunt'

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024
#ramble#if you say unalive in front of me i will personally kill you with my hands#you just can't muffle and censor and hold someone's hand through some things#some things are horrible. and they should be spoken aloud and they should upset you. because they are horrible#the second we started kidzbopifying the world was the end of taking anything seriously i think#i'm not even joking i've spoken to people older than me who won't even say the world sex#this isn't the playground you're not going to get in trouble just let us say the word!!!!!!#how am i supposed to listen to you when you won't even say the thing you're supposed to be talking about#yes this is the fault of the platforms with their censorship rules but the fact that we all just go along with it like it's not dystopian#you do know it doesn't stop with cursing right. people are already having to censor queer terms because they get flagged as inappropriate

genuinely is my brain erasing itself or is google/tumblr censoring that post about notre dame and old growth forests.
#i know we joke about tumblr's (lack of) search function#but at some point this is surely (less) passive (more) aggressive#(particularly against people with memory issues...is this. is this gaslighting.#am i. am i being GASLIGHTED. by a social media platform who isn't even my PARENT???)#that post is ingrained in my memory but google image is flirting and fwirling its fan 'haha! you're so cute! and Imagining Things. Dear :-)#i have Looked okay! i've looked! and i've looked for a SEVERAL DOZEN POSTS before this after talking To People...and behold!#...this last year or two i *genuinely* can't find posts 4 out of 5 times.#what the COOL GELITAN FUCK is going on#geletan#gel#GELTAIN#GELA--im so scared right now#so tired#GELITAN#what the chilled gelitan fuck is going on#update: i Am being gaslit just not about the spelling of gelly-thing#i'm both stupid AND being gaslit. these things! can! coexist! *sad clapping*

i wrote an interactive poem for my girlfriend in 3 parts. she said you need to read it.
go here: take only the final quiz or take all 3. i don't mind. it's sad, though. this is a poem about choice. about fate and mental illness and how love fits inside of all of it. this is a poem about a long dark hallway. mostly this is a poem about mango sushi rolls.
good luck. i love you. despite it all, i'm hopeful.
#uqiz#she said i need to put it up here lmafo#something something feel free to send me 5 dollars towards my next sushi roll run#poetry#experimental poetry#there's no specific like warning on this except that im not doing well n therefore it LEAKS into my writing lol#the realllll shit as an author is like ohhhh fuck i write so much better when im mentally unwell lol#:( why cant i be sane AND rational. why does my creativity gotta stem from suffering.#(bc when im not suffering im outside saying YIPPEE and kicking my heels lol)#IF YOU SAW THIS BEFORE I CLICKED THE RIGHT LINK NO YOU DIDNT#hey btw if you're experiencing an error idk what's up with that bc it still loads on my end.#i'll look into solutions but sorry :(#hi friends: i have no idea why sometimes the links break for random people.#it might be a chrome/firefox/etc thing but i will say that the links still work on my end AND i still have people taking each quiz.#so i know it works .... i have no idea what the exact solution is - maybe reload it if urs isn't working?#sorry im not good at coding :(

The problem with "you can choose to wear a mask or not," is that masks mostly protect other people. So if you choose not to mask, you're actually removing someone's ability to try to protect themselves.
We know that if you wear a mask it does protect you, but only marginally. In the end, it's everyone wearing masks that prevents the spread of covid from one person to another. This is because if you have covid the mask catches the viral particles you are exhaling before they can get into the air, where covid is airborne and hangs in the air like smoke for several hours.
People who are masking are mostly protecting you. If you're in the presence of someone wearing a mask, it's literally common courteousy to do the same.
#wear a mask#covid#not wearing a mask is eugenics#covid is airborne#the pandemic isn't over just because you're over it#disability rights#human rights#disability month#spoonie

op: "i really don't mind-" zeta: "Do Not enable him"
sort of a sequel to this? a lot of people really wanted op to get a hug and i support that. so does prima. zeta isn't really against it, he just wishes prima would at least try to stick to the schedule for primus' sake-
haunted au
#i talk a lot <3#transformers#tfone#transformers one#optimus prime#prima prime#maccadam#haunted au#my art#also yes if you're wondering zeta did fit cuddle time into the schedule. normally right after the five minutes of sobbing weekly session.#OP is handling the break-up like a fucking champ thank you very much he can get all his ugly crying out in one go every week#no this isn't unhealthy it's called time management please try to keep up#(<- may or may not be the exact same conversation that happened right before cuddle time was included into the schedule)#also not seen here but megatronus is right out of frame. seething in jealousy.#prima keeps hogging their baby brother and he's so mad about it

hehe ghost-turbo haunting felix au
turbo is connected to the last piece of his code in the whole arcade - a trophy he gifted to felix in mid 80s as a symbol of him genuinely caring about their relationships on par with being the best racer. felix also gave him one of his medals and both kept their gifts next to other rewards, but when roadblasters and turbotime were unplugged, the medal was gone with everything else
now, after burning in cola-lava turbo is basically dead, but scraps of his code still were intertwined with the trophy (after all, it was his first winner's cup, but felix never knew about it), giving turbo an opportunity to exist as a shadow incapable of interacting with anything and anyone besides felix, who kept the trophy even after the roadblasters incident
also I went crazy in tags, feel free to check them out
#turbo#turbotastic#fix it felix jr#80s boyfriends#hammertastic#headcanon about them exchanging their trophies isn't mine but i loved it A LOT#and “darling” is turbo making fun of how felix was calling him in 80s#this hc about “doll” and “darling” pet names also is not mine but i adore it#turbo here is a complete freak who just stays around felix most of the time even when felix has moments with calhoun#and felix is an ass who keeps secrets from everyone bc he doesn't want his dirt to come out#he's ashamed of his previous relationship with turbo and doesn't want anyone to know any details#and calhoun to just know about it#this just gets worse and worse#they also didn't actually break up and were still technically dating when turbo went gamejumping#and he's mad af at felix because he's the reason ppl in the acrade made a boogeyman out of turbo and he couldn't come back#like imagine your bf says to you what you are better than others think of you#and then behind your (presumably dead) back tells everyone that you're just an egocentric maniac#i believe turbo has other reasons why he gamejumped (besides jealousy which took place but wasn't the most important reason)#and felix is an unreliable narrator#so yeah turbo HATES his ass#(but still would-) no im not making it suggestive#anyway i hc that turbo had put A LOT of emotions in this relationship even tho he's bad at this#he tried his best with felix but they were just making each other worse#and turbo while feeling betrayed never really moved on (yes even after 25 years he's PATHETIC)#and felix is just full of regret about everything but he won't admit his mistakes in his relationship with turbo#bc “well he turned out to be a bad person so that automatically makes me in the right about everything”#but felix had made a lot of bad decisions while dating turbo and was just classically ignorant about a ton of things#sorry about this random ass essay in tags i'm done for now#wreck it ralph#wir

Really I think nothing shouts "my first Presidential election as a politically active person was 2016" more than the fact that when I feel hope and excitement for the future (possible President Harris) for more than five minutes I immediately get a crushing, all-consuming anxiety of "feeling this positive emotion now is going to make it so much worse when the worst thing possible happens" to the extent that I'll probably need my break-glass-in-case-of-emergency anxiety medication.
#politics#us politics#kamala harris#donald trump#2016 election#2024 elections#personal post#I can't feel any hope about politics without my brain reflexively shutting it down in case things get too nice before the fall#I know Harris has flaws#But I just like her--she's more progressive and feels joy and isn't shy about hating Trump#But then my brain is like “do not get attached or The Pain will be worse later”#This happened in 2020 too---I couldn't believe it when we won I was so busy preparing for the worst#harris for president#democrats#vote democrat#seriously vote democrat#If you are following me or reading my fic and capable of voting in the US election and are not voting Democrat please feel free to fuck off#You're the reason Trump won in 2016 and if you prove my anxiety brain right I hope all your food comes out burnt for the rest of your life#good thing I have therapy tomorrow

One of Jonathan Crane's last patients before he began his experiments with fear gas was a young boy, barely out of his toddler years, who'd wake up every night screaming from intense nightmares.
Jonathan could still recognize that boy over a decade later as the boy was wheeled into Arkham Asylum, strapped to a gurney. Danny Fenton shot him a tired grin. "Hey, Doc! You mind if we start holding sessions again? I got a lot more tangible fears I need to work through this time."
#dc x dp#dp x dc#dcxdp#dpxdc#dc crossover#dp crossover#c: jonathan crane#c: danny fenton#arkham asylum#everyone and their mother can tell that danny isn't criminally insane enough to be at arkham#but danny managed to fake it enough to get sent there instead of blackgate#bc the GIW are on his behind and you can't disappear someone from arkham#escape? easily#but break in and disappear a whole person?#unless you're insane work there or batman breaking in is a nightmare#and headcount is too often; he'd be noticed as gone in 4 hours tops#plus his old psychologist is there and if he DOES disappear batman will at least investigate#jonathan is bluescreening right now; has so much time really passed?#jon's going to have a midlife crisis now

One thing I have seen - even from other trans people! - is this specific implication that while it's inevitable that trans men pass, but trans women are essentially doomed if they want to pass.
I could talk for days about the intricacies of passing for trans people in general. I could talk for hours about why some trans people want to pass, and that it shouldn't be forced. I could talk about the intricacies for trans men and others when it comes to passing because the dynamics don't play out the way it does for cis men a lot of times. But what gets me is the idea that trans women could never pass, that those who do are essentially anomalies is... nasty. It's got nasty implications, and it's feels even nastier when trans people do it.
Trans women, trans men, trans people of all types shouldn't be required, pressured, or forced to pass. That is true. But to say that passing is nigh impossible for an entire subsect of trans people will never not read as evil.
#trans#transgender#lgbt#lgbtq#mtf#nonbinary#transphobia tw#i keep seeing this from other trans people and it's horrifying#you know what you're implying right.#because there is a DIFFERENCE between 'it can be harder for some people to pass' and 'these trans people CAN'T pass'#it's harder for some people to pass! sometimes it's by choice and sometimes it isn't! acknowledging that is crucial#what isn't crucial is to take that and then go 'well none of you pass'#and this is always framed like... trans men and trans women are on diametrically opposed sides#and the argument then reads to me like: see the TRANS MAN gets to pass but you CAN'T. you LITERALLY can't. passing is IMPOSSIBLE for you#how is that anything BUT transphobia. and why is it normalized.#you can critique passing without doing this! you can analyze the dynamics of passing without doing this! i do it many times!#passing HAS impacted me in very nuanced ways and it's COMPLICATED. i of all people get that#i specifically talk about how gross it sounds for trans women because i think y'all are more OPENLY viciously hostile towards them#though that isn't to say that that vitriol is reserved only for one group of trans people

Thinking about how Telemachus has heard "You are just like your father" by so many people for most of his life. How different yet refreshing it is to hear said father tell him warmly "You're so much like your mother".
#Idk something about how he's just as much Penelope's son as he is Odysseus'. And how people just focus on his missing father#And Odysseus. the dad he's often compared to. says something entirely differnt.#Mad rambles#shot by odysseus#my headcanons#penelope of ithaca#telemachus#odysseus#idk I'm fightin a fever right now :') I'm very sure this isn't even grammatically correct but yahoo!#epic the musical#odyssey#the odyssey#tagamemnon#I don't plan to write Penelope comparing him much to his dad often. She only does so when Tele wants/needs to hear it.#She realizes “okay. you're trying too hard to be in your dad's shadow. you're Telemachus first. you're our legacy second.”#he's still affected by others' talk though ;~; (grandparents used to call him the wrong name and such
