very difficult to vague in a small fandom. can't say give any details or someone will inevitably take it as a personal attack. can't offer a made-up scenario as an example because someone will misconstrue it as a personal attack that is also misrepresenting the "real situation." try to erase any and all identifying and referential characteristics and then all that's left is some banality like "racism is bad and you shouldn't let people's cryptic racism go uncommented on just because you don't want to escalate anything," and then your notes are full of the same type of people you're vagueing about agreeing with you. this is a theoretical situation that has not happened to me.

alright I'm almost finished Project Hail Mary, and I have to say, I don't get why people are shipping the guy with Markiplier when he's already in a perfectly healthy queer-platonic relationship with the alien spider made of rocks

[pangur-and-grim]

that's insane. we need to change this

it bothers me when someone brings up misogyny in shounen anime and people shrug it off with "its designed for teenage boys, what can you expect." like well. idk i think its actually pretty important that shows for teenage boys are normal about women. i mean i think all media should be normal about women but teenagers are impressionable i think we could put a little bit of feminism in the teenage boy shows. it might do some good. you never know.

[redstonedust]

and this isnt just about shounen i just mean like. if you're excusing misogynistic writing with "well it wasn't written for girls" then i'm seriously questioning your approach to all this.

gamergate really was just reincarnated into the transandrophobia crowd. Like reading histories of the harassment campaigns against Sarkeesian, Quinn, and Wu and they really are just exactly the same. Down to literally using the exact same platform to do it despite being a separated by a decade.

When men feel that their spaces are about to become less centered around masculinity, they become reactionary misogynists to protect it. It happened (and is still happening) in gaming, and it happened (and is still happening) on tumblr.

Orcas filmed ramming one of the world's heaviest fish so hard it explodes, possibly for fun

Orcas are known to be smart and ruthless hunters. They've been observed hunting a variety of prey, with some species, such as whales, larger

That's absolutely insane.

In case anyone was bothered by the idea of them torturing the fish, it was already dead.

pls stop calling your art “slop” its just another way of saying its “cringe” and look. I understand being young and feeling self conscious about your artwork, but your drawing of a kids next door au for an obscure plants vs zombies character that’s basically your own oc at this point wearing an outfit you wish you owned is so unique and so you and therefore so human. Dont you dare conflate it with slop and dont you dare stop making your art

the thing about being bullied for being weird as a kid is that even if you've always embraced being weird your brain is still always looking for the line where it's too much. you can be as proudly and intentionally weird as you want and you can love being weird but your mind is still convinced there's a point where you get too weird and people start treating you like a weird looking bug again. also it feels like you reach that point 500 times a day even if everyone you've spoken to today found you pleasant and likable and even if you're completely alone in your house with nobody looking at you at all.

[lostxanadu]

another thing about being bullied for being weird is that it tends to make you more weird in ways you understand less and that get you bullied worse because the only thing funnier than making fun of an autistic kid is making fun of a traumatized autistic kid

so it seems to me Flowery may have been calling Susie out here for having intrusive thoughts:

he asks her what she was willing to do, not what she did, and Ralsei has to reassure her she's "good".

which is kind of supported by how she responds to "hearing" the dialogue choicer. She reacts like she can "hear" it, but gets a bit uneasy and then just does something else, which is pretty much never what the choicer actually suggested.

it's like she's used to not acting on thoughts like "do something crazy". She turned it around into a hypothetical question for Noelle instead.

but despite that she might think that having those thoughts makes her a bad person in some ways.

Now...how do you think that might impact how she reacts the revelation that Kris is dealing with something pretty similar to what she does?

hey, I was just at "things got better" island and everyone there is talking about how excited they are to meet you

[switchblade-dragon]

Hey yeah so this post literally kept me alive for like 6 months. Thank you. And OP is so right. Everyone on this island became my best friends. And guess what? Now they can't wait to meet *you* and they talk about you every single day.
