you should read Trigun bro the main character is Jesus but also Cain and his genocidal ecoterrorist twin brother is Abel but also Lucifer at the same time. They're kind of Adam and Eve too but later on the evil twin is also Noah. The protagonist Jesus guy has a homoerotic friendship with a priest whose gun is shaped like a life-size cross and the priest guy is Judas but also The Bride Of Christ™. There's canon trans rep. Transhumanism too. DID rep. Physical disability rep. Did I mention Jesus has a huge ass and wears leather bondage fetish gear everywhere. The other most important characters are a couple of insurance agents. Somebody is named Midvalley the Hornfreak

Spoilers for the ending of both Stranger Things, and Voltron Legendary Defender, if anyone still cares

So, I just got done watching Stranger Things. I already knew that the ending was rough, to say the least, and I got spoiled on a lot of things, but I was watching it with my parents, so yeah. And, to no surprise, I didn't like the ending, nor season 5 in general. It just left me feeling kind of empty I guess. Like, nothing from the show really made me feel anything, there was just this deep frustration that this is what happend with all these characters I used to really care about, you know?

And then I realized, "hey this is pretty similar to how I felt about the end of Voltron"

And then I started thinking about it, and oh my god these two endings have like, so much in common??

- very popular gay ship not happening despite being somewhat teased - check

- the hetero ship involving one of the guys from the gay ship happening, and being so badly written that even most of the people who shipped it are unhappy - check

- the female party from the hetero ship (who is also the "magical" one) essentially committing suicide to "stop the cycle" or whatever - check

- the male party from the hetero ship getting character assassinated - check

- shitty "this is their happy future" montage for the main characters - check

- AND EVEN THE SHITTY QUEER REP WITH THE ONLY GAY CHARACTER GETTING THE "ends up together with a rando and that's all" TREATMENT - CHECK HOLY SHIT

Anyways, I'm sure you could analyze this more to figure out what went wrong, but I'm tired, so just treat this as a guideline on what not to do, I guess

How it feels to love half the cast enough to want/be happy with getting their ssr cards, so I'm excited about every other banner at least, but also not all off the cast, so I still get to save up for the cards I want

istg Araki gave Josuke that haircut and an obsession with it to nerf him, cause he'd be too pretty otherwise, he's like the perfect merge of hyper masculine 1-3 parts with the twinkification of 5-9. like, he's still gorgeous don't get me wrong, but imagine what seeing him even once with his hair down would do to the world (also I love the headcanon that he got Joseph's bangs)

I identify with Shen Yuan's specific fan experience with PIDW because when I read SVSSS, I too couldn't give less of a fuck about the romance plotline and badly written porn, and frankly, I think the wife doesn't hold a candle to the protagonist. You may ask me, "Why are you reading this BL novel then?" And the answer is: several reasons!

I'm obsessed with the protagonist. (His narrative voice and status as an unreliable narrator are so fucking funny.)

The details, implications, and rules of the setting fascinate me to know end.

I actually do like many of the members of the protagonist's harem as well as the complicated dynamics amongst them as they vye for the protagonist's affection.

I, too, hold a lot of scorn for the antagonist's reprehensible actions, and while I find his eventual fate gratifying on a surface level, there's still something that feels somewhat hollow and disingenuous about it.

The challenge of "you can you up" is so laughably easy to accept and conquer that, if we're being honest, the original canon has on some level become obsolete EVEN TO THE AUTHOR OF THE NOVEL.

Does any of this ring a bell so far? It should!

Honestly, at this point, I think I might be in danger of the universe laughing in the face of my hubris and also transmigrating me just to prove a point.

Funny (but accurate) comparisons aside, I love SVSSS, but I don't really fuck with Luo Binghe. As the functional antagonist of the book, I find him endlessly fascinating, and I also find the concept of the so-called "protagonist" serving as the antagonist to our protagonist, the so-called "scum-villain," really fucking cool. However, as a love interest, I have a hard time keeping my eyes in my skull from rolling them so hard.

Tbh, I don't give much of a fuck about bingqiu both in canon and fanon. The only time I think it's actually interesting as a romance is when you throw Liu Qingge into the romance pot to serve up some bingliushen.

My ship obsession, though, does go well fed, if not by canon, then definitely by fanon, with moshang, whatever that says about me. Idk. I just really appreciate a mutual but badly communicated obsession between a quiet stoic and a loud gremlin.

AI frustration with family members

I'm warning you right now this gets kind of ranty

So, lately I've had some... complicated feelings regardless my family and AI. For context, I'm quite firmly against genAI in pretty much all aspects, and while my family members are not for it when it comes to creative endeavors, they do like using it as a "tool". My older sister works corpo and uses chatgpt quite a lot. My mom doesn't use it much herself, since she's not a big fan of technology in general, but has recommended me in the past to use it for studying. And my dad is the worst "offender". He uses chatgpt a lot for writing stuff that's work related, though allegedly it's only for research and inspiration (at least now, I'm pretty sure he used to use it even more). He also likes to "talk to it", about things like philosophy, politics, etc.

I do realise, that they're all adults and can do what they want, and that they still are way better about it than most people their age. Honestly, the biggest problem I have, is that they don't like the way I'm "always negative" when it comes to genAI, my dad for example started often joking that he can't say that he's been using chat gpt because I'm there and I'm gonna, idk, judge him, or get upset or something (to be clear, we don't really have serious fights and I generally have a pretty good relationship with my parents)

And I'm frustrated, that they won't even let me, well, show my frustration. Especially since, most of the reasons for which I'm so firmly against genAI, are things that my parents thaught me. They both care a lot about things like keeping your mind sharp, not taking the easier way out when it'll bite you in the ass later, staying independent, keeping your individuality and they're both artists!

So idk, I guess that after all these years of "Make sure you write all your school essays by yourself and don't just copy wikipedia or something", "Double and triple check your sources", "Have your own style", "Don't use google translator when learning a language", "Make sure you have your own ideas", "You don't wanna look at your work and feel like it's not entirely your own", "You've gotta fight the system", "You've gotta know how to think for yourself", "You can't just be passive, fight for things you care about" and most of all how important real human connection is, it just sucks that seemingly I'm not even allowed to be upset about how much genAI sucks, you know?
