one of the more baffling decisions regarding this franchise

comments from fans and actual Chinese language users:

feeling very exhausted by all of the retconning and lack of consistent throughline from the novels to ATLA to the comics to the Avatar Aang film to Korra to Seven Havens

im realizing very fast that people do not in fact know that sometimes things in stories suck on purpose and it sucking is the point

"this story is misogynistic!!"

I would rather hang out with 100 individuals who regularly call me the R slur over one single tone tag user

[musashi]

what pisses me off most is I don't want to get rid of tone tags. the literal only thing I have ever asked is that people not use tone tags when speaking to me. And for some fucking reason (it's because they all have undiagnosed OCD and tone tags are a compulsion 💖) this makes them go BALLISTIC. they cannot fucking handle the autistic bitch saying "please don't speak to me this way" because it gives them a fucking morality crisis. STOP MAKING IT MY PROBLEM. TEN THOUSAND FUCKING ARROWS TO YOUR EYES

If you want to make accommodating others and being a Good Person™ a cornerstone of your personality but won't give someone the actual accomodations they're requesting, you're really only doing that shit for yourself, aren't you.

The real horror of a Stepford Wives situation isn't 'the suburbs are creepy' or even 'conformity is creepy' or 'I don't wanna be replaced by a robot'

The horror is the idea that you might choose to spend your life with somebody only to realize they don't actually want a partner and friend, somebody with ambitions and thoughts and joy. They want somebody productive, compliant, and sexually available, and all your internal life is nothing but a barrier to that. That the person you love only loves what you do for them, and the less of the an actual person you are, the happier they are.

Autism Representation written by an allistic: My name is John Autism and I like the designated autistic interests

unintentionally autistic character written by the creator who hasn't really thought about whether or not theyre autistic: I wish I could be human like the way everyone else is but I know they can tell I'm not. And I know they're right

Daily reminder that Nyarlathotep is still the most sucessful villain of the franchise so far.

Soooooooo trueeeeee.

To this day i can't get P2 out of my head. IS has a bad ending canonically that can only be fixed with a compromise. You think the compromise leads to them eventually finding each other but as you get to EP…NOPE HOPES CRUSHED RUG PULLED UNDER!

In EP it hammers down how our cast from the previous game failed and all we can do in the sequel is attempt to gather up the pieces (Tatsuya) and prevent another calamity from occurring.

And still at best we only have a bitter side of a bittersweet ending. So good, 10/10.

It's such a shame how limited the access to these games are with zero ports for modern platforms when they're the most influential games in the series canon.

the “why are so many yuri manga set at an age of intense self-discovery and change? Are they pedophiles??” discourse you see pop up every now and again is unbearable.

[aokozaki]

Why are yuri manga set at the age of dealing with the stereotype of lesbianism being a "practice" relationship for the real thing? Why aren't they set in college so they can deal with the American stereotype of lesbianism being an experiment you do and move on from?

Are they stupid?

[sycamorality]

one of my favorite things to do as someone's friend is when they're mentioning something they like. i love going "i'd love to know the lore". and then see them go "OKAY SO LIKE" and then they keep going for the next 2 hours and i get to read about their interests. like yesssss tell me everything about what you love!!!!!

sometimes I’m reminded that there are still people who don’t know ao3 was literally created by incest shippers — and the site’s sole purpose is to 1. be completely against censorship and 2. host all kinds of dark, taboo fics that are banned on other platforms — and the first ever fic that was posted on ao3 was a fic about an incest ship from supernatural.

you are in the house that was created by freaks. for freaks (affectionate). every disgusting thing you can think of is rightfully allowed and welcomed on ao3, because they are exactly the reasons why ao3 was created in the first place.

ao3 was created because its creators got tired of censorship, they got tired of dark and taboo fics getting banned on pro-censorship platforms, and they wanted a place that was safe for ALL FICS THAT WERE DARK AND TABOO.

ao3’s main principle is being against censorship and being proship / profic.

there are some things in fiction that make me uncomfortable, but instead of shaming people who are just minding their own business and not harming anyone in real life, I choose to curate my own internet experience by blocking/muting what I don’t want to see. ao3 has excellent tagging system, so instead of being a bitch, use their tagging system properly and you won’t see the things you don’t want to see.

it’s your job to curate what you see. it’s not other people’s jobs or responsibilities to censor themselves for your personal comfort. the world does not revolve around you.

also you cannot censor “only the things you personally hate” without expecting everything else, that isn’t of conservative beliefs, to be censored too. because censorship is a slippery slope and a fascist tool. I promise you there are people who think “why do tags for queer love even exist on ao3? they’re grooming children”.

if you allow the things that you hate to be censored — because someone with enough power gets to control what other people can and cannot create/consume, it will not stop at the things that you hate.

using violence to liberate people from sweatshops, unsafe mines, and grinding poverty isn't the same as using violence to impose those things on people. the idea that violence is morally repugnant regardless of context is a belief that every oppressor throughout history would love for the oppressed to hold
