you can't say "hey has anyone noticed that M/M fic outnumbers F/F like 100:1” or “it feels racist that only 3/202 characters on the ao3 top 100 ships list are Black and two of them are Alastor HazbinHotel” bc some ppl will start going like “oh so you think we should FORCE people to write about things they DON’T CARE ABOUT for WOKE????” and you’ll be like “no, i’m pointing out that the conditions that created this disparity are informed by racism & misogyny” and ppl will say “it’s not BIGOTED to only care about WHITE MEN” and then the gargoyle king appears

often you will see things online where you just have to be like "what a strange thing to say" or "i don't think that's true :)" to yourself and try to move on or you will lose your mind

on the one hand encountering a character in fiction that reminds you of some people you have had unpleasant experiences with in real life is extremely regular. on the other hand it is vital to understand when this is colouring your takes on a character rather than actual analysis of the text before you

My hate for the military vs my love for the 🫡 emoji

tbh im not entirely immune to a villain with a tragic backstory but i do think villain origins are a lot more interesting when the focus is less "here is the original sin, the first big bad thing that happened to them that made them who they are" and more "here is the first time a person who maybe otherwise felt powerless in their life realized that they could hurt someone and get away with it"

[dateamonster]

you can get a lot more mileage out of analyzing a truly abhorrent character through the lens of like. what sort of conditions would allow or even incentivize this kind of cruelty? what kind of person benefits from those conditions and how? over the more typical who hurt them type analysis. imo.

"which choice in this game about choice is the most interesting/right choice so i can choose that one?" THE POINT IS THAT YOU MAKE DECISIONS AND EXPERIENCE THE CONSEQUENCES

[demilypyro]

"but what if i choose wrong" THAT PRESSURE IS PART OF THE EXPERIENCE THE DESIGNERS WANT YOU TO HAVE

[cucurb]

hey guysss so unfortunately the rumors are true and im leaving the narrative. Buttt the good news is my absence will create such a gaping hole in your lives that it will become a sort of presence itself, and so in a way it will kind of be like i never left! But i am. Leaving just to be clear.

Shadow Dragon Week - Day 2: Freedom | Chains

Dawes Mercar on the infamous Nessus job. Thank you for hosting, @shadow-dragon-week!

At some point I'll write this all out in a fic. Had a great time with the perspective on this - it was a good challenge. Wanted to really tell a story.

Video of me trying to write the number 3 in professor layton game for 1 minute

[psychuan]

this fucking video has two punchlines it's incredible

I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with relating to characters, “they’re literally me” etc but if that’s the only way you engage with stories you’re kinda missing the whole point of Characters being vehicles through which we can see perspectives outside of our own. and also you’re going to get upset when the Character acts in a way that is not Personally Relatable to You
