my contribution to the mayor jerry community
All the characters in Goat are black or mixed with black idc they all got black mamas argue with the wall
I really like when people write older readers in x reader, idk why
"Big age gap" "college student reader" "19/50" fuck that porno shit, man, give me a reader who's in their thirties, forties even, give me joint pain and wrinkles and gray hairs
"But that's not relatable at all!!! I'm not forty!!!" Well, neither are you a fucking Avenger, are you? So just roll with it
yall thinking the ghoul and lucy have a daddy-daughter dynamic.. whole time coop's acting like that one friend who will NOT talk you out of reckless endangerment
THAT MAN IS AN ENABLER!!
pennywise leave black people alone challenge
REITERATING AFTER THIS FN JS SAID "dark meat tastes twice as sweet"
LEAVE THEM PEOPLES ALONEEE!!
pennywise leave black people alone challenge
my little pony ass ending what the hell was even that
nobody's talking to me bc i said that shroud would be cracked at edging
i was geeking abt flambae so bad i js started taking down details abt him as the eps came out.. idk what to do with them now sooo here you are
BACKGROUND
• Chad..
• Birthday: Aug 20, 1987
• Afghan born. Update: Someone said he grew up in Spain?? IDK
• SURPRISINGLY MISSING 2 FINGERS?? Update: He lost them in that fight with Mecha Man.
• I'm leaning toward him actually having a niece's dance recital to go to bc he's proven to be good with kids. And so, he cares abt his family to some extent. This also means he has a sibling—I think it's a younger sister bc only the older sibling experience turns you into THAT much of a diva.
• Having many siblings could also do that to you. Flambae's like an S Tier bully and knows how to throw back an insult, so I imagine he's got at least 2.
• Closest friend seems to be Prism given their dialogue with eachother (they hype eachother up and text). Punch-Up and Coop are close seconds since they're seen hanging out outside of work.
• Made his own costume.
• Fought Mecha Man before events of the game.
• Made the previous dispatcher quit by literally torching his Kia Soul.
• Has tasted his flames before, comparing it to spicy Pop Rocks.
• Phenomaman dogged his car in his moping during Ep3. Possibly a 1984 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am??
• He's a talented cook according to his dialogue dispatching to a dating show.
• VERY OUT HOMOSEXUAL.
PERSONALITY
• Talks in 2x speed. Rambler.
• Anger issues. Gets aggressive when someone flusters him, mostly in front of an audience. I'm smelling insecurity..
• Pyromaniac who impulsively sets things on fire. Ties in with his hotheadedness.
• Never taking accountability final boss.
• Generally arrogant. He prides himself on being in the higher rankings, and though it may seem like he's just a brag, he actually does care abt being a hero. Otherwise, he wouldn't have announced himself as one to Mecha Man, someone he had fought AS a villain.
• "Helping people is actually really cool, unless it's an annoying person, then it fucking sucks." Feels good helping out.
• This specific dialogue happens when you have Flambae retrieve a kid's balloon without making them cry, so he's good with children.
• Cares about his image but it's sort of inconsistent? He's upset at Robert if he throws a shake at him because it gets in his hair, and we know he's flashy from costume alone (look at the wide v-neck yk HE KNOWS he's fine), so why wouldn't he draw on brows if they're burnt off?
• Probably for jokes, but realistically if Flambae cared so much abt his looks he'd definitely try hiding that. ESPECIALLY bc the Z-Team is full of assholes who'd eat him alive for not having eyebrows 😭.
let's talk abt prism
on tiktok, i've seen discourse abt prism and whether or not she's a stereotype. and i gotta say—it's genuinely not that deep.
the argument is that, because she's a female black character with attitude, no paternal ties, and a loud personality, she is stereotypical. THOT SQUAD, the VA, said that prism was based heavily on herself. prism's from michigan, THOT is from michigan. THOT's a rapper, so is prism. prism says what she wants and does how she pleases, and so does she.
i'm not sure if THOT relates specifically to not having a dad, but that's generally a common experience in the black community. is it part of a stereotype? yes, BUT stereotypes are unfortunately based in reality. what makes them problematic is assuming something is a universal experience among a community. there's nothing wrong with having a relatable character, even if she fits into a box.
on prism's personality being stereotypical, i somewhat agree?? but only because we see this archetype often. yes, she's loud, full of attitude, but she's not written in a distasteful way. the z-team is FULL of people with attitudes js like hers because they don't like having to suck up to people, and definitely not being told what to do. she's not made out to be unreasonable, angry, or extra. i've been told time and time again that i'm loud and i couldn't care less. i'm allowed to express myself loudly and be black. i'm just being me. prism is just being herself. we are not sapphires.
we have had this conversation about literally every character that acts how prism does. by saying every sassy, expressive fem black character is a stereotype, we're stigmatizing behaviors black women/girls may exhibit naturally. we're telling them they can't act like that because it's ghetto. we can't fight against stereotyping while also putting people into a box for being themselves.
also, mind you, prism isn't even our only black character in-game! coop is a black woman js the same, and her personality completely contrasts with prism's. the game isn't sending any messages that black women all act how prism does.
not even tryna sound like a red pill loser, but cancel culture has genuinely made us scary. we're afraid to approach characters like this with acceptance in case somebody gets offended. so instead, we look for each and every thing that might be problematic in a piece of media. it gets to the point we're grasping straws to just start discourse or seem progressive (this is mostly for them performative yts).
prism shouldn't only be getting flack for feeding stereotypes; she should be appreciated for being included. the inclusion of dark skin women in media is RARE, y'all.
robert's microaggression
i put this separately because i'm still on the fence abt my take. so, people have said that robert calling prism 'cardi c' was a microaggression. this was a follow-up to his first comparison to nicki minaj and is the problem area in most arguments. rob's 'nicki mirage' jab made sense because of prism's illusion powers and her rap career. she and nicki's aesthetics are also pretty similar, with nicki even having the same split-dyed bob at one point.
@/tinybellyfart on tt explained it best: robert calling prism 'cardi c' was a microaggression because he insinuated that she's a downgraded version of a talented, black rapper; a cheap imitation. i saw some comments brushing this take off and saying people are "too soft" but i see their point. microaggressions are MICROOOO!! they're supposed go unnoticed or won't seem like a big deal if someone else catches them. just because they're small don't mean they ain't there.
i talked with my gf abt it because i wanted her opinion as well, and it was a joke we both laughed at and didn't think much of. people make jokes abt clearly inspired artists, or simply similar-sounding ones, being a downgraded version of the original. not saying it's not a microaggression bc it can definitely be read as one—prism's being compared to 2 black fem rappers—but there's other factors to think abt.
as i said before, nicki minaj and prism have similar aesthetics, and they're all js rappers at the end of the day. rap is a predominantly black genre. plus, punch-up followed up robert's follow-up by calling prism 'lady haha'—a reference to gaga who also dresses like her. it's a jab at her being a walmart version of other pop/rapstars.
idk i feel like i'm brushing off the counterargument 💔💔. what do y'all think??
now that dispatch is over and the "weekly released episode" high is gone, i do wanna say this game catered A LOT to men. and don't get me wrong, i LOVEEE dispatch so much but i can't help being disappointed by its writing for women.
coupe
her and punch-up's dynamic is one of my faves bc of their romantic past, but looking back at their comic i'm like 😭😭?? punch-up was one of her marks, and she couldn't kill him bc of his powers. she liked the challenge, so she kept on fighting him until they were both worn out. they're clearly attracted to eachother upon first meeting—punch thinks she's beautiful, majestic like the ballerinas on tv—but does that warrant having sex?? sex with someone you JUST met??
fighting is intimate for them. i think the comic even compares it to ballet dancing (idk fact check me). however, this would've been more intimate had it happened again and again. i would've liked to see coupe deal with missing a mark for the first time bc he was literally unkillable. i wanted to see her frustrated. maybe the client would keep pressing the issue, sending her after a mark that she could never beat. so, she and punch fight, fight, and fight. developing a rapport in the process. over time, they'd fall for each other. fighting is still intimacy, but this slowburn would've given it time to become that to them.
could they still have had that scene in the comic? sure, but at least with this storyline it would've been worked for and not js goonerbait.
invisigal + malevola
courtney, courtney, courtney... girl needed to be sent to an HR meeting so bad. what is so attractive abt a woman pushing 30 and acting like a teenager?? what's so attractive abt someone who doesn't respect basic boundaries??
invisigal invades robert's privacy at least twice and he doesn't even react—players aren't even given the choice to tell her off. they literally just have to sit there and take it because his only response is to humor her. and all of this is made to seem "okay" since they get together in the end. it's definitely not. and, yeah, you can friendzone her but she doesn't even take THAT seriously. she deadass says, "i don't like fucking people i'm friends with."
yes, because if someone tells you verbatim "we can just be friends", they definitely wanna crack!!
invisigal can't take no for an answer. that's not hot.
(kinda spoiler) she also forces a kiss on robert despite admitting she ruined his life not even a second before. we see his hand shoot up and her immediately shoving it away. this happens even if you've rejected her advances.
+
malevola literally nutchecks robert, he's VISIBLY uncomfortable and exclaims in shock, but she doesn't care and tries to do it again. the whole moment is treated as a joke and i js don't fw that.
the fact that invisigal's both attractive and a love interest, along with robert's passiveness toward her behavior, paint this narrative that women can do whatever they to you so long as they're attractive. it pushes this idea that men who are harassed by women are lucky to be getting any attention at all.
