Experimental thing
"it would be so good if it was good" will haunt you but "it's extremely good, except for the one or two parts which are so bad it's genuinely kind of insulting" will straight up drive you insane
one has you making posts like "okay but if the author UNDERSTOOD the POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS of the story they were telling, and leaned into it, it would actually be a really interesting exploration of..."
the other has you pacing your bedroom at one in the morning going "why. why would you ever in a million years do it like that. genuinely what possible thought process was involved. was the writer possessed by a fucking ghost or something."
sometimes media is more delicious when stuff with major implications is very much present but also very much glossed over very quickly. like yeah that guy subtly quietly tried to kill himself and alluded to having tried before. anyway

Don't be mean, Simon. Ellie is an angel :(

[Description: a looping bouncy animation of grace and Rocky from project hail mary. Grace throws himself onto rocky for a hug, smiling and nuzzling his face to the top of Rocky's xenonite covered carapace. Rocky brings a claw up to ruffle Grace's hair and grace throws himself even more on top of rocky, rocky wrapping his arms around grace. End description.]
iron lung | project hail mary similarities. 3/3 part one. | part two.
Okay but if anyone's actually having troubles reconciling multiple conflicting ideas that they like for a fictional character, like the whole "Ryland Grace is somehow aroace and in a polycule with Rocky and Adrian and very gay for Simon Ironlung" thing to where it's not meshing together as like, well with the power of queerness anything is possible, but just like, but surely I must pick one?
You don't have to actually do that. The beautiful thing about fictional characters and the whole business about them being tools of a narrative, is that you do NOT need to concretely decide anything about them outside of the confines of whatever story you want to tell today. Multiple conflicting ideas about the same blorbo never actually need to settle into one definitive verdict. I mean it's fine if they do, but it's not required.
And in fact it's usually a good idea if you like to create things for you to practice switching between several mutually exclusive possibilities. Not only is it good creative practice, it also keeps you from getting so stuck in a single concept of an idea that you become hostile to conflicting opinions.
you ever get so into the whole "it would have been good if it was good" thing that it gets kind of embarrassing. it would have been good if it was good but it's Not and in fact it's maybe worse than anything else but unfortunately. it still could have been good. if it was go

When You Look at Dr. Grace
part 1/2 (part 2)
the aroace read of ryland grace is so personal and haunting. "you don't even have a dog." was it not enough to love the world for the sake of living in it. was it not enough to live for the thrill of discovery. was it not enough to smile at your students. was it not enough to be afraid.
“you cannot ship these two fictional characters because—” actually I can because they are not real people. they are just toys I play with. you cannot apply real-world morality to fiction or how strangers play with their imaginary toys in their imaginary sandboxes.
you can, however, curate your own internet experience by minding your own business, muting/blocking/scrolling past what upsets you but does not hurt anyone in real life in any way, shape or form.
“ship whatever you want except xyz. there is a limit” so you miss the entire point of what I just said 👌🏻
there is, in fact, no limit. I may be uncomfortable with it, I may even find it unpleasant/disturbing, but my personal feelings are not rules that can be applied to other people, and they absolutely do not justify shaming or harassing other people.
