So many women are looking for a “masc lesbian” but what they really mean is that they want a top who has their life together lmao

[desinteresse]

“You got masc vibes even though you are a femme” do I? Or do you just think that confidence and competence are inherently linked to masculinity?

[desinteresse]

Like if you want someone to top you till you cry then you should just say that. There are many women who can provide, many of them femme.

[desinteresse]

But also it’s kind of rude to assign gender roles and sexual preferences to someone just because they’re masc. just because she wears a snapback that doesn’t mean she’s a top or able to fix your car or whatever.

Pokemon fans: this man who has been punished by Arceus who has spent 10,000 years repenting for his sins deserves to be in prison because of what he did 10,000 years ago.

Fairy Tail Fans: Jellal, who tried to kill everyone last month, is actually a good guy inside so please forgive him and let him out of jail....

The worst part of het ships (besides being mostly boring) is the fandoms are SO in the "MAN DOM WOMAN SUB" that they mischaracterize everyone.

Like Gajeel and Levy. I'm sorry to most Gajevy shippers but....he's not the dom or the top in any sense of the words. Yeah he's strong and manly. He also asks "how loud" when Levy says bark.

And since the het ships I like are so rare (Gajevy, Fruka (Eruka x Free soul eater), it's always a shame that fandoms would rather their het ships are heteronormative. Make them hetero bitchboy and hetero dommy mommy. Hetero step on him in your stilettos.

I CANT BELIEVE THIS. they all transitioned oh my god? they're obviously the same ppl like all but 1 have the same hair colour? and the flavour texts for the games imply they're the same band? I can't believe they pulled a hole in one 2 but even more transgender ???? I'm so happy

[thehappinessmachine]

if anyone asks you what the first three minutes of the game are like, show them this image

Honestly I think more people should take notes from Hiro Mashima, and just keep reusing the same OCs in different AUs.

Man has his blorbos, and he continues to utilize them repeatedly, and that is great actually.

Rave Master, Fairy Tail, and Eden's Zero.

Different names and outfits, but still using the same characters (and Edolas Fairy Tail being a joke on that).

Seeing people I know and like using AI is making me understand the protagonists of those old time sci fi dystopia's.

"Oh I don't normally use AI, I just wanted it to plan my trip"

You lived on this planet for decades, you know what you like, there are hundreds of websites where you can type into any search engine " things to do in [area]" and have at least a hundred different options.

"Oh I only use it so I can figure out what to make during the week with what I have"

The most popular website as you type in "recipes" into google have sections where you click dinner- quick and easy and those usually rely on staples + 1 or 2 items. I found 30 recipes on chicken alone.

"I had a writing idea, so I typed a few sentences into Chat GPT and I was able to write 20 pages with it."

being a kid and hearing adults say stuff like "woah 2011 was 4 years ago haha" didn't really convey the fucking horror of a youtube video crossing my recommended labelled "9 years ago" and it's from 2017. that's not true. 9 years ago is 2010 or something. don't lie.

[gajeeltit]

something about edo gajeel being a journalist (writer) and earthland levy liking reading (words are written) and edo levy being a engineer whos rough and strong and earthland gajeel being rough and strong

Hetero normativity and hetro assumptions are a curse on every fandom.

This time Fairy Tail rewatch: how many episodes until I get distracted?

Episode 1 Lucy: Gushing over Mirajane centerfold.

Every other episode Lucy: Wow Mirajane and Erza and Cana are hot.

Fandom (off tumblr): There is no proof she's bisexual at all that's how all normal straight people act!!! (lie)

[dadjoke-ness]

More: I also love when a character is the glue to their group.

Like prior to Lucy showing up, Natsu, Gray, and Erza rarely worked together.

After Lucy? They are the polycule now, full time.

Yes it's to have minor tension in the group but the three have canonically been like ♣️ until Lucy shows up and now they're all a group that would do ANYTHING for each other.

And then they adopt Wendy later and it's great.

But damn Natsu had negative rizz until Lucy came into his life.

alright, I’m annoyed with the class that I’m taking. it’s about writing novels, and I thought it would have cool stuff about balancing your narrative and developing themes etc, but instead she spent the first class talking about how every book fits into the Hero’s Journey (the monomyth template). and I was somewhat of a contrarian, and said “can you give us examples of books that don’t fit into this template?” and she said “no. because all books fit.”

but I dunno man, I just finished reading this Korean book where the plot is just the character having a string of hookups and reflecting on them without changing in any way. I don’t know if it’s possible to contort that into the Hero’s Journey.

Even inside the western canon, it doesn't fit very well way more often than people like to admit. Even inside the very stories that Campbell built it off of.

For example: Beowulf does not follow the hero's journey. I have a pet theory that Beowulf is three or four stories that kind of got mashed together since it's a collection of a couple vignettes about this warrior's life and the dragon episode is rather disconnected from Grendel (unless you're John Gardner, who ties it all together in his novel Grendel). Beowulf emerges as a full-blown hero when he enters the narrative, does not have a mentor, does not refuse the call (and rather wholeheartedly embraces it in fact - "Not only am I gonna slay your monster, I'm gonna slay your monster with my ass hanging out to show off"), does not live in the normal world at any point. One could argue he returns with the elixir to his home, given that the later story has him as a king, but the story's not interested in explaining much about how that happened and keeps going after the hero's journey would claim it should end, instead jumping to Beowulf's noble sacrificial death. You really have to squeeze to fit Beowulf into that framework, and by the point where it does, you've lost all semblance of a common structure the monomyth claims to represent. Arguably, the Iliad doesn't it either, given the scope of the story is a lot smaller than some people seem to believe.

Like I get the point that the original post was making about the western canon being so heavy with authors from the US and western Europe and not caring much about works from cultures beyond that, but I feel it's worth noting that even if you grade Campbell's ideas on the most generous possible curve, they don't hold up.

And even if we pretend they did, he never intended them as a writing guide. They were only popularized as one when George Lucas took that structure and adapted it to Star Wars.

And it's always worth mentioning that Maggie Mae Fish did a really good breakdown of Campbell and the Hero's Journey and why it's flawed. It's well worth watching. It's what got me questioning it in the first place.

Oh you got one of THOSE novel writing teachers!

I had one too, a real asshole who got upset over the fact that I have (wait for it) TWO whole main characters. Because I enjoy writing narrative dialogues, my whole novel writing style is two or more characters.

He got upset because I said plenty of books have multiple main characters, including the "Hero's Journey" that is Lord of the Rings - while it is true Frodo is the main character for part of the story, by book 3 the story is from Sam's perspective (if you pay attention, plus Frodo left the book for Sam to finish), not even mentioning the whole...half of books 2 and 3 that are "The rest of the Fellowship actually progressing the world plot while Frodo and Sam adopt an angry dog named Smeagol".

Since I refused to back down and brought sources including other narrative dialogues like the book Flipped - which is the exact book that got me hooked on the narrative dialogue between two characters....he failed me outright. It was an online class so the petition process went nowhere, but I made my opinions VERY clear that he was wrong.

That's also about when I started being a real ass to novel writing teachers who want to teach the ONE way Hero's Journey One Main Character white-centric westernized garbage....I look and see what the teacher has written and how bad it is. Nothing proves the "those who can't, teach" more than the bad novel writing teachers.
