WHOA!!!!! i love my friends' ocs
Not to sound like a fuckin hippie but please for the love of god start noticing and appreciating the natural world around you. You donāt have to go hike the entire Appalachian trail or anything and I get that not everyone has access to the outdoors for various reasons, but just fucking ⦠look around you when youāre outside. Notice the sky and the sun and the birds and creatures. Start caring about them. Iām begging you.
Culture is so obsessed with the idea of lone geniuses that it doesn't really appreciate that most of the progress of science (and likely every other discipline) occurs collaboratively, in babysteps, and usually through a lot very tedious, utterly unsexy, work.
The way Silco and Caitlyn are treated in this fandom comes down to the "judging an evil character by his best moment and judging a good character by her worst moment" mentality. Oh and misogyny, don't forget that.
the purpose of friends is to have people who unconditionally hate your shitty exes & relatives. like maybe YOU have a complex relationship with your father but i sure don't. i'm outside his house with a gun. he's not the unforgivable asshole who raised me he's just an unforgivable asshole
Hot take but if your opinion of a song (or anything for that matter) has anything at all to do with the number of listeners youāre a fake fan
I made this, please feel free to use
why r the beloved "morally gray" male characters of fandoms always like this is baby killer john he loves killing babies for fun and the fandom is like omg baby killer johnnn ššš but a morally gray female character is like heres a traumatized teen girl thats meant to be deeply flawed and wrong at times but also went thru a lot and is meant to be sympathetic and nuanced and the fandom is like SHE NEEDS TO DIE RIGHT NOWWWW !!!!!!!!
We donāt talk enough about how Martin was likely mostly running the institute by himself (cuz Peter probably wasnāt all that helpful, Martin for sure never wants to see a spreadsheet again) while in a depressive episode AND manipulating Peter to make him think heās on his side. Like holy fuck bro. It pisses me off when people act like heās dumb because did we listen to the same show??
A HUGE portion of the criticisms for BOTW and TOTK boil down to āthere isnt (xyz) in this game like other games!ā And the answer to it is almost always āyes there is, you are just ignoring it or actively avoiding it or willfully engaging in it in a way that is breaking it and then getting mad that it brokeā
Like, if you want a tight 50 hour 3d zelda with a full ACTIVE PRESENT story and linear story/mechanical progression & big dungeonsā¦.just listen to what the game is telling you to do and inviting you to see when you see it and you will literally get a classic linear 3d zelda experience complete with āyes, we did infact have ONE PARTICULAR solution in mind for this puzzle!ā, deep lore implications, extremely melodic and complex orchestral music, progression, & a zany cast of characters.
Both of these games are so much more than that though, and contains so much more content that people donāt see that meat and potatoes run because of their own choices and desire to break the game wins out over wanting to meet the game where its at. And to be fair, that is a major component to what these games are daring you to do. And you should engage with those, but if you really did want the classic experience, it should be obvious you should treat it like the OOT era games and it will LITERALLY provide that for you in neon blinking lights and guardrails.
I really do feel like these two games are sort of an exercise in discipline /listening /spotting subtly /recognizing things in their new shape as much as they are an invitation to explore experiment and fuck off, and people are mad that the option to break from the path exists at all because they dont have the control or desire or sight to focus in on whats being asked of them and they donāt want to accept the shape of what the game is working with.
Iām not saying these people are playing the game wrong, but the attitude and closed mindedness is the problem. itās almost always the source of these kinds criticisms that want to present these games as empty repetitive experiences, when these two games give the entire franchise a run for its money on uniqueness and novelty and story depth and profoundness.
You went in for a bad time, didnt want to play, and got exactly what you worked for- a lame, monotonous level skip that jumps ahead of itself, disrespects the intention of the developers, and misses the point of very obviously and enticingly marked gametunnels they made for you.
Like, seriously here, both but totk especially is quite literally an on-rails CINEMATIC GAMEPLAY experience if you want it to be, it literally has a path that is like 99% laid out in such a way that you are directly on mine cart rails and jumping up and down on direct vertical pathways. The regions-to-temple pathways are about as much of a bee-line as you can get. The skylands & cave systems are effectively old oot era compartmentalized zones. Same with shrines. There are so many ways they have created pathways and say āGO THIS WAYā that if you ignore those and get lost its kinda on you for not being observantā¦.. which has always been one of the top asks of the player required to beat a Zelda game.
The biggest difference between these two games and other 3-D Zeldaās is that it just has taken the roof and some walls off the design. It Lets you experience more in context to your journey at any given time and that gives you a lot of freedom and agency to break from the path or stay on your goals, and both enrich your experience and inform what links journey is going to be and how narratively/mechanically/progression cohesive it will be.
if i ever baked a gingerbread man i would give him a star wars shirt and call him dough eiffel
Anyways you guys ever think about how the only person who ever really apologized to Jon for treating him like a monster was the person who traumatized him the most. And how she never asked his forgiveness, because she had no right to, but she wanted him to know that it was wrong. That she was sorry, because she should be sorry. Because he was always worth compassion, and no rationalizing or justifying can ever take away the fact that he was a person before he was ever a monster.
I think about their incredibly compelling and deeply fucked up friendship a normal amount
If your reasoning for thinking caitvi isn't "proper lesbian representation" has ANYTHING to do with them having to be a specific level of 'pure, healthy, unproblematic, nontoxic, etc', I have some bad news for you.
You have fallen for the homophobic demands of society that you have to be a well-behaved little gay in order to not stir the pot and coexist with the heteros among you. You have inadvertently convinced yourself that queer rep has to be held to higher standards in order to be acceptable for the masses to consume. And what a fucking goddamn shame that is.
Queer people should be allowed to be as messy, complicated, and human as anyone else.
Do not allow yourself to be manipulated into thinking a queer person has to be on their best behavior in order to be loved and admired.
Reminder that a character does not have to be morally perfect for you to like them and liking flawed characters doesnāt make you a bad person

Ship dynamics are always like Sunshine and Sunshine protector~ Cinnamon roll and their grumpy one š¤ Well what about 2 cunts. They're both cunts and that's the dynamic. cunt4cunt.

Iām so glad love won and they all lived happily ever after i say as they drag me away
I havenāt drawn the pendragons in a million years I miss them
I do something similar where I pretend Iām an alien researcher and look at everything with wonder and curiosity and it has unironically helped my mood and worldview so do with this information what you will
one of me and my brothers favourite bits to do is pretend we're cavemen seeing modern things for the first time. like an airplane passes overhead and i go 'caveman' and we both point and stare at it pass with gazes of abject horror and disbelief like we're about to experience the rapture and have seen the closest thing to god we ever will

I think there's some medias that you just cannot meaningfully engage with if your main priority is shipping
I actually love all of these things but especially gay aliens. Not that I am one. I have 27 teeth just like the rest of you.
i don't really care about gay vampires I don't care for gay pirates and I don't care for gay cowboys. I do infact care for gay dentists gay aliens and gay office workers
My hottest Arcane take is that a lot of caitvi antis come across as complete wimps whose only exposure to lesbian couples are kids cartoons and vanilla yuri manga. Like Iām fairly certain half an episode of Killing Eve would instantly make these people pass out if caitvi of all ships is their limit for fucked up relationship dynamics. Please I am begging you watch/read more lesbian media made for adults, thereās an entire world out there that youāre missing.

BOTW Zelda is truly the best, and the Zelda we've always deserved, and I love her. Do you know she fought Calamity Ganon alone for literally 100 years?
i donāt know with how often some of my friends bring up the fact that Iām a lesbian iām starting to think that they donāt really see me as anything besides that
Mel manipulated Jayce!?? Oh no!!! Me next?
I cannot relate to people who dislike female characters for ābeing manipulative.ā Sheās literally creative problem solving before your eyes. Sheās literally just using her words. Maybe the other blorbos should be less pawn-like for her beautiful hands hmm
