You guys can call me Arson and I use he/she mainly.
I am a huge fan of Unstable Universe, ContentSMP, StateSMP, UT(MV), CRK, Rain World, Slay the Princess, PHIGHTING!, Block Tales, BrandonWorks, JSAB, Subnautica, and A Hangout Game series. I am also a massive fan of clowns, the ocean, space and really any kind of science.

QNA below:
Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as “problematic” in class and our professor was like, “That’s cool, but ‘problematic’ doesn’t really mean anything. It means that the thing you’re describing has a problem, and in and of itself that’s not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else it’s not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like you’re trying to say that this is bad, but you don’t want to say ‘bad.’ Is that right?”
So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the “bad” thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, “I’m uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.”
Once we stopped calling things “problematic” and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, “that’s racist” or “that’s misogynistic” or “ew capitalism gross” out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, “Uhhh... I’m not sure what’s so bad?” and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.
Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I can’t help but think of this professor being like, “Good starting point, now let’s get specific.” I think when we have to commit to saying “that’s ___” it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever we’re claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes it’s art, and it should be full of problems, because that’s what art is.
#'this is present in the text' is often a good first step #but those second and third ones (naming it; describing its function) are vital (via @elucubrare)
bro falls for it every time

sometimes someone I follow falls victim to severe Character delirium to the point where they stop even saying the character's name and just refer to them by an epithet like some kind of malevolent entity whom they don't wish to accidentally summon, so if the sickness sets in quickly enough and I don't pay close attention for a week I'm just Never going to figure Who this bastard haunting my friend Actually Is. and I'll spend months scrolling my dash occasionally seeing appeals to "that fucking horse" or "my evil grub."

If you see him, you're not the target
Decided to combine my 2 current hyperfixations together (purple minecraft guy and strange fascination with military jets)
Really happy with this one, experimenting lately with more graphic design elements in my art and typography, I'm a big fan of the metalheart and brutalism aesthetics.
You can't tell me elytras dont look like B2 wings
I was thinking about the inconsistency between what Jamato claimed he'd achieved through his anonymity (aka convincing the prisoners that Spoke is truly the one behind NULL) and what we actually see in the episode (we do hear a couple of prisoners voicing their lack of trust for Spoke, but not for that reason, mainly because he was broke af, and the only one who resents him does so because they blame Spoke for the death of their best friend not because they think he's behind NULL).
Now, Jamato isn't exactly known for having a particularly accurate perception of reality. And, yes, part of it is him being purposefully manipulative, but it's relatively safe to assume that at least some of the things he claims he does fully believe in.
Which leaves us with two options here.
Either Jamato didn't believe that he'd turned everyone against Spoke and was just hoping that Spoke's paranoia would do the job of convincing him and hopefully lead him to isolate himself (because it's clear that Jamato wants Spoke alone from the fact that he tried to kill everyone he so much as interacted with for more than five minutes and also planned to leave him in solitary indefinitely).
Or Jamato did believe what he was saying. Perhaps because doing the dirty work while invisible and letting Spoke take the fall for it all by virtue of just being there and being memorable worked for Ash in the past when sabotaging the farms. Something Jamato most likely knew, because he was very much around during the Invisible Mafia arc, being hunted down himself. And he has been emulating it and Ash. And he does seem particularly hung up on the past (anyone who thinks Spoke is the biggest danger to the server past the first half of season 1 is, tbh).
I wouldn't be surprised if this is yet again just Jamato having a faulty view of things. And that is the interpretation I'm leaning towards. Especially since this is far from the only instance of Jamato's claims not matching reality at all.
But I'd be interested to hear other theories if anyone has 'em. I'm curious
i looked at queeringthemap today and had a good cry but these especially touched me
