okay so I made this post having only ever seen a couple of sailor moon episodes but today I read 8 of the 12 volumes of the manga and I think this is more prevalent than I had been joking about
I know we joke a lot about how x major property is a homestuck fanfic or y major property is a star wars fanfic but I think people underestimate how many properties are sailor moon fanfics

pride stories would be so much more fun if they wrote elseworlds where characters were gay instead of writing boring stories with gay characters. they should let queer artists publish superbat fanfiction in pride specials

The thing about Cottagecore is that is a fetishized aesthetic of country life, divorced from labor and idealized by a primarily urban audience with a backward looking ethos of tradition. They are not prepared for the stresses of a rural life: farming; harvesting; tapping pumpkins to ensure none of them have been replaced with flesh; losing out on income by having to use one of your pigs in a blood sacrifice to paint protective sigils over your doors and windows; checking cracks and chimneys for the flesh-vines of the Pumpkin Lord; having to decide, before the Growth is complete, whether that's really your tradwife or an amassment of vines, leaves, and blood in the shape of your tradwife; ignoring their desperate pleas that "I'm me! No! No!" as you burn them alive, realizing too late you picked wrong; and the exploitative corporate nature of commercial farming in 2024. All seen through a deeply colonial lens, of course
