obligatory pinned post introduction
hi! i'm jocko and this is my personal blog. he/him pronouns only please (although i won't object if you use they/them in passing). i'm 23 as of writing and i’ve been on tumblr for way too long. probably won’t ever leave.
i'm currently pursuing my master's degree in media and communication, and my professional interests include media effects, media representation, and fandom! big shocker on that last one. in my free time i enjoy reading, writing, doodling, listening to music, and going on hikes. i'm always happy to chat so feel free to shoot me a message!
my main fandom is death note, but i have another blog for that so i don’t post about it here. other than that, i’m pretty into jjba, kekkai sensen, golden kamuy, danganronpa, smiling friends, metalocalypse, star wars, dhmis, and the count of monte cristo. these change over time, though, and i’ve also been into transformers and gintama recently.
a couple notes:
i'm going to take a controversial stand here and say that human rights are important. in other words, terfs and the like are not welcome. i'm not going to go down the list of Types Of Bigot I Don't Want Here, but you get the idea.
as someone who studies media effects, i can say with certainty that, while fiction and reality are not the same, they do affect each other - in fact, fiction is often more persuasive than non-fiction. i don't think any topic should be off the table, but let's not be dense; media, fictional or otherwise, that purposefully and transparently frames pedophilia and other forms of abuse as desirable condones the behavior in question, and that has real-world consequences. i condemn and do not associate with content of that nature, period.
this is a sideblog to @trepidatixn, although i haven’t used that blog in ages. my death note blog is @sugurushimura, and you can also find me on ao3 and bluesky. cheers!
