Really after 4 years of avoiding covid a fucking stupid homeschool antivaxer takes me out i cant do this shit anymore fuck healthy people.
Will the fucker who is currently pointing their fucking brights at my fucking window while I am trying to fucking sleep go literally fuck themself
i fucking hate the "money doesn't buy happiness" thing as if being super rich and stable would not make someone feel positive about their life? and in the chance they do have a mental illness like depression preventing them from appreciating their privileged life they could literally get the BEST treatment in the fucking COUNTRY. or even the WORLD. poor and rich people don't suffer alike. they don't!!
oh mate im insane rn. the very idea of this has my blood pressure rising in a way i can PHYSICALLY feel bc i think about it all the time. i would say don’t get me started but i’m already started ! that ‘money doesn’t buy happiness’ spiel is one of the biggest, most patronizing lies they peddle to the masses and i every time i hear it i feel i’m personally owed the guillotining of a billionaire. no hyperbole. i just want to be like ok. so donate your wealth. all of it. right now. live like the rest of us and be hApPy like the rest of us you repulsive fucking maniacs. and right??? as if not having easy access to basic necessities - medication, food, shelter, water, education, even time to yourself and to relax - doesn’t have an impact on a person’s level of happiness. it’s just common sense. and people say ‘oh that phrase means money alone doesn’t buy happiness, you can still be rich and unhappy, or poor and happy’ and it’s like yeah and ? i’d rather be sad and comfortable than sad and choosing between dying of hunger or dying of being overworked ? what’s not clicking. you’re totally right. the two experiences aren’t comparable at all. in a capitalist society financial stability sets the foundation for a safe and positive existence, and they make sure of it. so idk why they wanna act obtuse the next moment w the whole oh money isn’t all that matters crap. ur the bitches that made it this way HELLOOO
ladies, crimes of passion was bad for me personally so now ur all gonna hear abt it. i feel like it was the nail in the coffin for kate and maggie’s relationship, and as opposed to paying tribute to the original material the author so admired, i really feel it trivialised it. kate and maggie are women. they had an adult relationship, and though it ended on unfortunate terms, it was still adult. and i dont know, but a kiss on the cheek and some yelled confessions and a ‘call some time’ felt so high school to me. it didnt feel genuine.
i want to first say that the art was bad and i didnt like it like sorry to whoever did that but like comparing this book w what we got from n52 like. they arent playing the same game. why did maggiekate get such a lacklustre storyline and such bad art. lesbophobia? never.
ok so. the immaturity that this kate expressed was kinda insane. a huge part of her arc both in n52 and rebirth was her reflecting on her past relationships, her experience, everything that has made her strong and mature. her coming to see why life is worth living, and why she has worth. thats why n52 ends with her knocking on maggies door. their break up was messy and painful, for both of them. neither of them wanted the relationship to end, and it was because of maggie’s husband threatening a custody battle that it did. its unfathomable how painful that would have been, to choose between being with the person you love, and seeing them happy with a child. thats why at the end of n52, when kate was ready to settle things with maggie, she did
i hate this ending, but at least it’s some form of emotional finality. they hashed things out here. crimes of passion feels like a budget version of this, it presupposes that none of this happened, like they didnt conclude their relationship maturely and amicably.
then we have rebirth. whilst their relationship was well and truly over by then, the finale of the run again rehashes kate’s emotional maturity when reflecting on her time with maggie. both times, when she thinks back on her life, or the ‘unknowns’ going forward, theres always a credit to maggie.
so it doesnt sit right with me reading through this snippet in crimes of passion! the sniping and coldness. i cant place it. i dont know when in the timeline this is happening. it has to have been after their talk at the end of n52, and if it is? it retroactively makes that ending hollow and meaningless. because obviously their talk wasnt effective, and they parted on bad terms.
like whilst the ending, the ‘youll always be that source of calm for me’ and the ‘i’ll always love you’s seem nice on paper, they trivialise the finality of every other run as far as im concerned. because theyve had this conversation. kate had already emotionally gotten to this place. the ‘until next time’, like finally at that meeting theyll be on good terms, is bad. because they had already been there all along without this comic.
all of this just feels irrelevant and like a budget rehash of their relationship. it didnt add anything, in fact i feel like it took away from the source material.
and fuck me this was supposed to be a valentines special, and there was absolutely no romance. i want a refund.
THIS LOGO IS FUCKING DISGUSTING!!
wHY do the boys in Given get to kiss but my girls in Carole & Tuesday don’t???
i really cant beleaf how hard i forced myself to like a rude plot device of a character bcuz i followed so many of his bnf stans, to the point where i was having actual anxiety reading the comic AT ALL bcuz of all the discourse when anyone DARED voice dislike for him..... and like, legit was trying to convince myself i liked him so my fandom experience would be less stressful..
i read fics centered on him trying to understand why people defended him so hard, made my own content about him, etc... then finally just accepted hes shitty & im not a bad person for not liking a fictional character lol. felt so much better. ppl really were out here guilt tripping others... for just. not liking a fictional character. like a lot of ppl defending him so strongly are projecting, and some ppl recognize that & i have no beef w/ those stans, but like. yall. admit ur fav is an asshole who is definitely woobified !!!!
