PINEAPPLE SLUT
straight dude: what if my d&d character was like really violently homophobic. not because i am but like it would be dark and edgy
me: (internally) oscar wilde was right
in reference to this quote (tho he was also just right in general)
me: *worries that I’m Evil and Manipulative and tries very hard every day to be a good person*
me: oh my god
me: I’m manipulating people into thinking I’m good
One reason why I love anime. The emotion of the voice acting is too strong
did
did this anime waifu just tear down the edgy pretentious pseudointellectual facades we construct for ourselves as an obfuscating substitute for actual worth of character and accuse us of being so wrapped up in our own insular self-validating atrophied emotional comfort zones that we can only relate to others through pop culture allusions and mental dominance contests instead of a genuine emotional connection between two human beings
what the hell man
at first i read the above explanation thinking it was just a bunch of long thrown in words meant to make something simple complicated….but that is the perfect explanation for what I just watched
It’s been mentioned many times before, but the voice actress did this in a SINGLE take… makes it all the more impressive
I reblogged this yesterday with no comment, but after watching the clip again… no. No, that response up there with all the big words?
That’s exactly what the character was telling her counterpart to knock off. Big words. Big words with the assumption that everybody listening or reading will understand or have the energy and means to research what they don’t. Big words that communicate a big ego and little consideration for others.
She’s telling him to come off his pedestal and talk to her as himself, with his own words - words she can understand, because no, she’s not a walking dictionary or thesaurus or history book or anything like that, and unlike him she also doesn’t pretend to be, even though she’s arguably just as “exposed” to all these things by way of his presence in her life as he is by way of his presence on the internet.
What is “obfuscating”? What is “insular”? What is “pseudointellectual”? Fine that you seem to know their definitions, but you aren’t addressing an audience that can or should be expected to know those things. For god’s sake, I do know those things and I still had to keep stopping to figure out what the hell was being said.
She doesn’t understand these things because he never tries to help her understand. She doesn’t understand why he thinks he’s educated and edgy just because he talks about blood and knows a little bit about this religion and that world issue. She very clearly wants to understand, but he’s so busy being clever that all she gets out of him is, “It’s really cool, but you wouldn’t understand it.”
So no, that… big jumble of words up there is not what’s going on. What’s going on is that an anime character just called the internet age on its bullshit.
And while she was at it, she threw some damn heavy shade at everybody who uses their entire stock of big words in casual settings without stopping to read the room and consider their audience.

this right here is so fucking important. As someone with ADHD, I struggled with having to decipher this bullcrap in my Liberal Arts classes or any time I needed to read shit for essays and it felt like pulling teeth. I would always think. “DUDE you’re talking about art!! Fuck off with the big words and just tell why I should give a shit about this damn painting!!” I’m not saying if you use big words fuck you I’m saying if you ONLY use big words fuck you. Especially when you’re to talking down to me about something I should understand. It’s a social wall that will leave you feeling cold and lonely up on your high horse. and If you do this and want to knock it off:
Don't always say: pseudointellectual
Try to say: pretentious or full-of-it
Don’t always say: insular
Try to say: ignorant or a don’t know don’t care attitude
Don’t always say: obfuscating
Try to say: Confusing or messed up
Soon you’ll find that people with actually wanna talk to you/ read what you write if they can understand what fuck you’re even on about!

this is how I would doctor
It’s cute when people claim that Lovecraft was racist because of the era he was born in. Dude was the most prolific letter writer in American history. We have letters from other racists asking him to tone down the racism. The man was considered breathtakingly racist by the people of his own time.
imagine how racist you have to be to be known as “that racist guy” in a time that was already extremely racist
me, trying to accept the fact that i’m mentally ill and as a result impaired in my function: but….. i’m… probably… just lazy. a bad person. i simply need to pull myself together and that’s it
this is a straight couple. it’s straight. you’re in a heterosexual relationship. there is nothing remotely “queer” about this in the slightest whatsoever. jesus h christ
this is why i hate “reclaiming” queer
Are you fucking kidding me do you hate bisexuals that much that you’re willing to go along with terfs for a dunk on the bihets? Is that it now, is that the community? Is shitting on queer people so important to you that you’ll throw away all your standards?
We also don’t know if these people are binary but let’s judge them at a first glance and base their identity on their presentation because that’s so progressive!
I love how people are all “Bisexuals are JUST as much a part of the LGBT+ community as Gay people”…
And
“Trans 👏People 👏 Don’t 👏 Need 👏 To 👏 Pass👏 To 👏 Be 👏 Respected”
But yet are totally willing to throwout bisexuals and trans people and other sexualities.
Because it feels very good to outwardly judge people we don’t know anything about their identity or life’s experiences - because that’s not at ALL the exact thing that non-lgbt+ people do to tear down the community. No.
This is my husband and I. I am sure if you saw us on the street you would assume we were a cishet couple.
News flash: we aren’t.
I am a bisexual who has been in relationships with only women. He is a Transguy who has been on T for over a decade. We have been together for 18 years. We both identify as queer. We are out. We are active in the LGBTQ+ community.
But all of you calling that couple above straight, you just keep judging people on a photo alone and pretending you know who they are and what their stories are.
Us queers in relationships you judge will keep being happy and healthy and living our best life while you choke on your bullshit.
o hey thats pixielocks
Shes really fucking queer
Idk bout her boo but she has a youtube n has mentioned it before she’s bisexual

I always have to start the New Years with this picture.
faeries can’t lie which is why hozier said “no comment” as to whether he is one of the folk, but then in another question, said “time moves differently in the fae realm” and qualified his statement with “i’m joking,” which suspiciously falls in line with the fact that the fae are notorious for being mischievous. therefore, we can make the assumption that his statement was not a lie but also not the full truth. in this essay i will

FUCKING
EXCELLENT
IDEA!!!
I’ve had this on repeat for the last couple of minutes switching my hearing to hear either “that’s a fucking excellent idea” and “that sounds like an excellent idea” (which is what he’s actually saying) and it’s really tripping me out
STOP HAVING WHITE VOICE ACTORS PLAYING NON-WHITE ROLES
stop depriving non-white actors opportunities to act and get recognized!
Voice actors often don’t know who they’re reading for or what franchise they’re in (that’s what the strike was recently about, so they’d know whether they were in a small first time game or the 4th installment of a major franchise, if they were replacing a beloved voice actor, etc.) so please don’t harass the actors, until recently they legally didn’t have the right to know who they were reading for and were usually not told until months or even years later.
Definitely go after casting, directors, and studios executives. Those are the people making the decisions.
Example of a VA not knowing (and getting screwed on top of it).
They still don’t have the right to know. They got fucking nothing out of that strike. They can know the code name (which might be a serial number or whatever) and if it’s a sequel. That’s it. That’s the extent of the “transparency” they won from the strike.
As a perfect example of this controversy, if you haven’t looked up interviews surrounding Laura Bailey as Nadine Ross, it’s worth it.
Laura Bailey herself explained that when she auditioned for the role, she was given no information about what the character looked like. It was only after she was hired and arrived for recording that she was shown concept art and discovered the character was a WOC. She was uncomfortable about the situation.
Meanwhile, Neil Druckmann revealed that they were already working on concept art of the character when they hired Laura Bailey. They finalized the character’s design as a WOC after they’d hired a white voice actress, so that was a conscious decision. He was also very flippant about the situation as a whole.
Like people above have said: Yes, whitewashed casting is a legitimate and real issue. But unlike actors in film and stage, voice actors are often totally blind to what they’re auditioning for. They get fucked by NDAs and legal red tape bullshit. Go after the casting directors and execs and high-position game devs that knowingly make these decisions.
