Reblog to save a duck

Quack quack

[ijustgotherebro]

It’s getting to be that time of year where more people are going outside to parks and stuff so i thought it would a good idea to reblog this again

[theofficialvincenzo]

Once I was feeding some ducks from a bag of birdseed I brought with me, and this woman next to me looked so confused and asked what I was feeding them

When I said it was birdseed she just went “oh- can they actually eat that? Is that safe?”

I didnt know how to respond like, at all, so I just pointed at the duck and said “bird”

She then had a look on her face like a new groove was just forcibly carved in her brain and said softly “oh my fucking god”

Why do most (RoFan) manhwa female characters never have moms or even other female characters? /genq

In those stories where the FL reincarnates in a child's body (idk how I feel about that lol) she most likely has a father, 2-4 older brothers( the youngest which is the most cheerful, the third oldest who is cool and bookish, the second oldest who's lod and outgoing and of course the oldest who's his cool nonchalant dad's carbon copy) and of course, the two love interests. The brothers and father are all madly in love with her and protect her from the love interests

No mom,no sisters.

I wanna see a cute family with everyone included. Not that there's anything wrong with father's or brothers,tho

Mini rant again!

So y'all know those scenes in manhwas where the author tries to make the significant make scary.

Example;

Female lead walks into a ball and people are weary of her /gossiping and then the ML glares at all of them simultaneously and they're ALL suddenly intimidated.

Funny.

Anyway,I don't know why cold Duke of the north is such a trend! He's the warmonger ,abused at age four but it turns out he's not actually evil, just misunderstood.

There's also this issue of corny nicknames. Like how did the characters sit down one day and com up with that, even?

I was reading "Killer whale something penguin" and the ML's nickname was ;

"Smile healer"

Because whenever someone does something wrong, he heals them with magic and then hurts them all over again while smiling.

This rant was made on a light hearted note so please, treat it as such

I've just noticed this "pattern" thanks to a post from someone I follow. So,I mostly read manhwas and that person does too and we both share a lot of opinions, One of which is Rashta, from the remarried empress having too much hate. Which brings me my main point.

Why is slavery so normal in manhwas? Yes,"normal". Sure,it may not be the author's intention. The author puts slavery as a theme in these stories and rather than address it, it's just a plot point to make the protagonists shine brighter.

In a lot of manhwas, when the heroine needs protection, she'll go to a slave market and purchase an able bodied slave solely for the purpose of protecting her (though she's rich and can hire a skilled bodyguard). Now,that slave, who should be traumatized or even,scarred due to the abuse they suffered will for some reason cling to the protagonist and will eventually become obsessive slaves and then, villains.

I'm not supporting their actions. Some of them do terrible things. But,why are the slaves, not slavery or the protagonist who saw a fellow human and purchased them like a commodity so often villains? Don't forget the slave masters,too who obviously abuse these people.

I know it's supposed to be historically accurate and all but slavery is a real life thing which still happens today. So bad that some people never recover from it.

"Riftan doesn't just love Maxi for her body!"

Literally Riftan:

Every. Fucking. Time.

Never let's the poor girl breathe

And, of course, Maxi—being a traumatized abuse victim—interprets Riftan's obsessive possessiveness and sexual aggression as genuine "affection."

Quick reminder: Repeated pressure or forceful persistence for sexual intimacy despite clear hesitation from your partner is sexual coercion. Sexual coercion is rape and, in romantic or marital relationships, is a form of sexual abuse. Coercion means no consent, and no consent means rape.

Hello, Happy timezone

So, I've been thinking of publishing my web novel with a manhwa platform. Any advice?
