... jgy really was someone who killed nmj..which is something lxc did not see..
idk what to tell u. is that not Truthy enough?
# i'm so tired too that i can't browse the jgy tag without there always being a cunty vague comment on the audacity of some other people to have a mdzs opinion of their own. and it's always some blog with a lot of followers shitting on some other smaller blog who is just posting their own thoughts. who made you the tag police? why does the mdzs fandom even have a tag police? like,why is that a Thing? it's really not ok.
why do hardcore jgy fans have this need to chop canon in pieces to defend the poor lil meow meow? he's fine as he is! i like him for being deeply fucked and a criminal! i know exactly what he did and how he's deluded himself that he Needed to do it. jgy being an unreliable narrator to his own story is what makes him so sad and pathetic and enjoyable. he's already relatable enough ffs. no need to defend him like he was a kpop boy.
are you new to fandom or something
#asks answered#also my whole point with that last post was that the meta was otherwise very good#but the meta writer loses me the moment they reduce lan xichen's blind spot wrt jgy#to lxc not seeing jgy for 'who he really was' fundamentally as a person#as opposed to not seeing individual actions and choices#these are two different concepts and you are either intentionally misinterpreting what i wrote#or maybe just didn't get what i was saying originally#regardless that was definitely not me at my cuntiest 🤷♀️ that's just bog standard fandom salt#also if i'm a tag cop then i'm an extremely lazy and incompetent tag cop#considering how much garbage i do not comment on when i see it in the tags#also (also) anon I think you've grossly overestimated my influence in this fandom and how many people give a shit about what i have to say

i think it's sad that somebody who would have the intellectual means and the influence to uplift and empower the underprivileged instead chooses to strengthen power imbalances that have existed for centuries. literary elitism is founded on questionable values and upholds a societal hierarchy that is imbalanced.
aren’t you tired of being like this? don’t you want to go apeshit?

What's your opinion of the new fallout show?
I liked it! If you’re looking for something that harmonises really well with West Coast/New Vegas games you’re going to be disappointed, but honestly I was expecting worse. Has a lot of the same problems as Bethesda Fallout games in that it would probably work better set earlier - it’s strictly working within post-apocalyptic whereas west coast/new vegas stuff progressed from post-apoc to post-post-apoc.
That being said I think it also manages to play to a lot of Bethesda Fallout’s strengths (the Vault investigations were by far the highlight of the show, and also played to the writers’ strengths) and cuts down on some of the other bullshit. The ghoul concept was odd and just another contradictory image of ghouls on the one hand, but I also liked that the show depicted ferals with more pathos and sympathy than just “more baddies to shoot”.
I liked the characters overall, wish we got more of Moldaver though. Feels like there are a lot of dangling threads there though they might be developed more in a Season 2. Same with Dane’s character.
I’m going to be honest, while I don’t think it meshes well thematically with West Coast Fallout and especially New Vegas, I feel like some New Vegas fans are going a bit too conspiratorial with “Bethesda is trying to retcon New Vegas, Bethesda personally hates New Vegas and deliberately setting out to undermine it” kinda rhetoric. I feel like there were too many New Vegas references, especially at the end there, for that to be true, and I think that jokes aside the Todd Howard Is Out To Ruin Everything I Love thing can kinda end up overshadowing legitimate critique of how the show works within its setting.
#fallout tv series#ngl I think some of you are overestimating the amount of creative input Todd Howard had on this show#i think the influence of Bethesda fallout is strong and clashes with what Black Isle and obsidian were going for#but I also think ‘Bethesda has a personal vendetta against New Vegas’ is pushing it#‘trying to invoke this game without really engaging with its themes’ is way more likely to me

I give my grad speech in a week, have been writing a million versions of what I want to say in my head all year, talked to my mom last night, boy did she separate the wheat from the chaff.
#teaching tag#allskskskksksjsjs my mom one of the only people in the world who knows me and appreciates me but is not under the influence of my charm#even a little bit#skksksksksjsj actually my whole family is like this. which is a GIFT. and also something that can be so hard for me skskkdjdjdjdjdjjd#truly my most ruthless critics#but I wanted to cut things down in my own mind to the truest and most bare essentials#and that’s why I asked my mom! because I wanna get the core straightened out#will it end up being slightly more joke-y and vulnerable than she would like? yeah. but I am not my mom and cannot live as if I were#anyway have I thought too much about this speech? 100%. and wildly overestimated its actual importance#which is pretty small. so I have a week to wrangle myself back in line#idk i know it’s a good thing—the wave of excitement I can create#and I’ve had many people tell me they’re so looking forward to it etc.#but with it also comes a lot of pressure. a lot of pressure to be funny and to be charming#my own instinctive desire to fly too close to the sun and to take everybody on a ridiculous journey#but I want to go back to the core. especially in my teaching#it feels extremely important to me#anyway. what I need to do is let this go. and pray. and stop having a huge ego etc.#but it’s very hard because I am a self-obsessed narcissist who LOVES the sound of her own voice#I am also exhausted and have a lot of teaching/grading to do in the next week#sorry just processing thank you for listening

Where the notion that Young Griff will have half the regions support his case came from? At best he's gonna have Dorne's support and that will be only if Doran gets to have his daughter become Aegon's wife ( aka Queen of Westeros in case Aegon succeds).
#valyrianscrolls#young griff#aegon Targaryen#some people overestimate Aegon's influence to seven kingdoms when so far barely has any#house targaryen

I need to refind those posts about the misconception of the timeless child as a "chosen one" story. Or were those tiktoks 🤔
#i think another factor here is that a lot of ppl overestimate how much the timeless child thing influenced the doctors life post-memory wipe#like the whole point of this was that it doesnt change any of that stuff at all#ironically i think a lot of people are taking the masters perspective on the situation#instead of the doctors#and maybe people are also thinking more people knew about this than what is true? as far as we know only a couple people knew about it#so its not like it would greatly influence how they were treated

it’s ur blog, I think you should go off on whoever you want! especially if they deserve it. plus you didn’t even go THAT hard… it wasn’t overdone or unnecessary or anything.
thank you! but i should not
PSA: if you're gonna make a post going off on someone. STOP! find one or more friends who are willing to discuss the topic with you. complain to them! is what you're saying a fair take? do they think its reasonable and deserving of a post? in fact, do you even still feel like posting after complaining to your friends, or have you got it out of your system? If you still want to post, what do you hope it accomplish? Will it hurt someone? these are all questions you need to ask before making your post.
it has saved me posting many a dumb post! i did not follow these steps earlier, and i think it was an unwise (though not catastrophic) decision.
If you want to be bitchy, find some friends to bitch with, but also friends who are willing to tell you to "woah rein it in buddy that's a bit far". i trust my friends to talk me outta making a bad post, and that has the benefit of really trusting them when they say something is a good idea to post.
#i will not lie making this post was cleansing. can't explain it. was feeling antsy about the situation and i feel better now#a reminder of my values. of people who support me. idk. an acknowledgement of my faults and also plans to do better? something like that#perhaps preventing someone from making similar mistakes? who knows#side note my blog is a relatively big blog. making callous posts and callouts can be really bad if i'm not careful.#i'm not huuuuge huge but in this community i understand i have a relatively substantial influence#saw a post 2day mentioning my influence on trafficshipping (though i thought it was a little overestimated.#i didn't start people shipping scarian so much as made others feel confident enough to post imo)#anyway back 2 splatoon#og post#ask#anon#anonymous

trying to explain to 12 year olds in the osc that random guys in their mid 20s who post an animated webseries on youtube and still live w/ their parents do not control the railways or the flow of commerce
#like yeah they have SOME influence bcuz of their audience and they should be mindful of that#which i believe they are!#but some of u are overestimating how much control they actually have in society (ignoring obvious privileges like being white etc)#txt

the moral panic about fanfictions is soo funny to me. “oh no people make everything about shipping now😭” people sent letters to Louise May Alcott after she published Little Women to ask her if Jo would marry Laurie. In 1868. Like…
#single-handedly blaming ao3 for the downfall of literature when most people don’t even know what it is#you’re overestimating tumblr nerds’s influence on the world

A common thing in small towns is for someone you could swear in court you'd never met in your life to come up to you and talk to you like an old cherished friend. Apparently the person who did this to me today was my freshman high school English teacher and telling her the honest truth, which is that I don't write anymore and I'm a lot happier that way, was a mistake. I don't have social media, but my mom does, so she's gotten angry messages to send onward to me on behalf of the noble educator I have so deeply wounded.
Because, you see, my not writing is an insult to her, someone I haven't seen in six years. Someone who left so little impact on me that I don't recall her face is convinced that I must hate her if I'm not writing. I genuinely could not tell you what she looks like other than having auburn hair and I think her name begins with a D or G.
I don't know what teacher needs to hear this today but sometimes people change hobbies and it's not a sign they hate you or your class or anything related to you whatsoever. It just means they changed hobbies.
#personal#i wonder if the theater kids get this#i wonder if anyone yells at them for not acting#or if the band kids get chastised for not being musicians#anyway the salient point here is#you greatly overestimate your own relevance#teachers#and i say this with love#are not the only influence in my life#i had one class with her six years ago#it's not like she was a master author and i her young apprentice
