Fandom is so different now and it’s becoming un-fun with how quickly shit moves.
I just want to enjoy things. I don’t want to have to play a game of Artist-Race that seems to be afoot lately.
Ya’ll eat up fandoms, leave artists and writers bone dry and then move on so fucking quickly then fucking wonder where all the Good Fandom Stuff is.
Idk Maybe cherish some things for longer. Reblog stuff. Interact with people. Comment and share.
Fandom is Capitalism now and I’m not being nuanced.
"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."
"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."
One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.
giving birth sucks tbh. not only do you and the baby you’re birthing almost die, usually you shit yourself and often you tear your taint. then you have to push an organ out of your body (placenta) and if even a little of that remains in your body, you can hemorrhage to death or develop an infection that essentially rots your body from the inside out. even if you had a relatively “easy birth”, you bleed for weeks on end. even after that stops, your body and brain is changed for the rest of your life, the pregnancy leeched minerals from your bones, that can cause osteoporosis later. minor urinary incontinence is not uncommon, brain scans of people who gave birth show permanent changes in their brain, you’re never quite the same.
I say all of this not to say giving birth is disgusting but it is a harrowing and visceral experience. society downplays how fucking awful it is and makes it out to be a ~magical~ experience but it isn’t a magical transformative experience for everyone. it can be an extremely traumatic experience for someone who wanted to carry a pregnancy to term, much more so for someone who did not want to be pregnant in the first place or someone who knows their baby won’t survive the birth. anyway, abortion is a right. pregnancy and birth aren’t just inconvenient, it’s fucking awful.
You sure did.
I cooked y'all.
Never been a part of this fandom before, but I know the game.
Some spoilers under the cut, maybe?
Overall, the movie is exactly what I'd expected: a slasher flick and not much more. Which isn't bad, UD is pretty good for what it is. I also knew it wasn't an actual adaptation and the plot and characters were different, so I didn't end up disapointed.
The characters felt to me very much like your typical Netflix teenage friend group: I didn't feel much chemistry there and they all felt pretty flat. Which maybe is the point of movies like this, actually: you're there to watch them die in horrible ways, not get attached.
But if it's supposed to be in the same universe as the game, then why did they change the wendigo lore? From what I understood from the tape, you turn into one because of trauma and you eat people BECAUSE you're turning and not the other way around? Feels a bit nonsensical, but whatever.
I caught two references: Josh's file on Hill's desk and uh... the spiritual girl... Maggie? Megan? wearing a butterfly necklace.
Speaking of, I am kinda sad that they didn't incorporate the butterfly effect. Isn't it the whole shtick of the game? Even one small action having some unforeseen consequences would have been pretty neat.
Overall, as just a slasher teenage movie: 8/10.
i feel so bad for nikola tesla like imagine spending years beefing with a guy who has conned the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and you end up dying broke and starving and alone and then 100 years later another guy cons the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and he's doing it all IN YOUR NAME. he must be rolling in his grave like a fucking rotisserie chicken
After seeing several response about Sublimation, I can't help but feel like people are using Adrien's lack of social skill to justify Marinette's stalker behaviour.
"He's okay with it, so it's not stalking", "He doesn't know, so it's okay", "No one was harmed, so what's the big deal" are the excuses I've seen the most. And with Sublimation, people were going "Oh, he knows her so well, that's cute". I can't help but ask what exactly is cute about that?
Folks, this guy is someone who's been socially depraved for YEARS since he was a kid with his only friend being Chloe. He has little to no awareness of what is acceptable in society and what is not.
Him accepting the treatment and behavior doesn't make it okay.
If we don't get Felix + Duusu and Argos + Chat Noir (pre- AND post- Argos knowing the other's identity) interactions in this coming season, I swear someone will pay.
Another Jax canvas
