I am begging fanfic writers to stop worrying about romanticising abuse or whatever and start worrying about picking a consistent tense.

#fanfic #mate. you can't romanticise abuse. you can't even romanticise actual romance. you can't write a coherent sentence.

“The woman dies.

She dies to provide a plot twist. She dies to develop the narrative. She dies for cathartic effect. She dies because no one could think of what else to do with her. Dies because there weren’t any better story ideas around. Dies because her death was the very best idea that anyone could come up with.

‘I’ve got it! Let’s kill her off!’

‘Yes! Her death will solve everything!’

‘Okay! Let’s hit the pub!’

And so, the woman dies. The woman dies so the man can be sad about it. The woman dies so the man can suffer. She dies to give him a destiny. Dies so he can fall to the dark side. Dies so he can lament her death. As he stands there, brimming with grief, brimming with life, the woman lies there in silence. The woman dies for him. We watch it happen. We read about it happening. We come to know it well.”

- The Woman Dies by Aoko Matsuda (translated by Polly Barton)

What’s an ick you got in a Choices book that you can’t get out of your mind?

#personally it was E*than telling me he wanted to control me or whatever bs that was #literally anything to do with Kieran and how PB tried to romanticise an abuser #also nearly every Maxwell scene in the later books #I say this as someone who romanced him #choices #playchoices #choices stories you play

Can we talk about how Sylvie treats Loki? Or about how miserable he becomes around her? About how all of his personal progress drops to zero whenever she's around? About how 90% of their screentime together is them verbally or physically fighting, often because of Sylvie? How she doesn't even care if she hurts him (psychologically and physically) and instead doesn't hesitate to do so while Loki never attacked her?

This isn't enemies to lovers, this is simply toxic and abusive. But since it's a woman doing it to a man everyone just overlooks it because "omg she's so badass, girlboss!!"

#i bet if it was the opposite y'all would be screaming at marvel for romanticising abuse #anti sylki #sylki is abusive #loki #loki marvel #loki series #loki season 1 #loki season one #loki season 2 #loki season two #loki laufeyson

i can't believe people genuinely believe ascended astarion is actually good. "oh but he's so sweet and nice" you're being manipulated. "he hasn't said anything mean" yet. that's how it starts. im sure that's exactly what astarion thought of cazador at first, and look what happened.

ascended astarion is just continuing that cycle of abuse; he became just like cazador, just like cazador became his master. absolutely nothing is good or healthy about ascended astarion, you people are just deluding yourselves into thinking it's fine to romanticize abuse just because the abuser is attractive. get a grip.

#crazy thing too is you KNOW its the booktok freaks that don't know good media from bad. the ones unironically reading clleen hver n shit #'hes a hot vampire' GIRL HE KNOWS #and he hates that people think that about him but uses it to his advantage god you people make me go crazy #anyway. gonna go do normal things because i am normal and dont romanticise abuse👍#astarion ancunin #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 spoilers #baldur's gate 3 spoilers #six speaks

no but i really like that even the director herself doesn't defend ming's actions. so you know it's that bad this week... so yea ep.4 will be real ride... (ToT)/~~~

#my stand in the series #my stand in #my stand-in #pepzi banchorn #i see some people talking about romanticisation of abuse but imho i don't think my stand-in does #like the series and its creative team seems very self-aware about the asshole-ness of its characters #and they've never even tried to paint it as romantic imho

oh my god if i see being against romaticising pedophilia, rape, and incest referred to as "purity" one more fucking time im going to have a conniption

#AGREEING THAT ABUSE IS BAD IS FUCKING NORMAL!!!!#NOT GLORIFYING AND ROMANTICISING HORRIBLE SHIT IS NORMAL!!!!!#GO OUTSIDE!!!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!!!!!!!#youre not fucking edgy for romanticising and normalising ABUSE jesus christ #to be clear im not talking about depiction. that is different #but if youre woobifying an abusive relationship of any of those kinds and showing it in a positive light you need to fucking check yourself

I really want to write about how actually disturbing pockets death is/ also a bit about Estella and possibly pip because most (normal) people don’t look to much into things like that but I’m autistic so

I might post it on here but I really don’t want a certain group of people to see it

I’ll still write it ofc but I might not publicly post about it if I’m still paranoid

(Off topic but joe looks like a giant compared to pocket even when sitting but it’s just that the sp kids are so short)

#btw the group of people is pro/comshippers #this is something I’ve just noticed in the show and on the official sp website #because a lot of people take their info from the fan wiki #really I’m just gonna write about how both pocket and Estelle are both victims of abuse #just rewatch the episode you’ll know what I mean #but oh my god I don’t want com shippers seeing it and going #oh wow time to romanticise this #enjoy my little rant thingy #btw I’d any other insane people would like to talk about characters from a 20 year old episode I’m free #ALSO..sorry for any typos of if this makes no sense it’s almost 2 am and I can’t sleep

hmmm you know what? one day I'll move out of my parents house. one day I won't have to ask for others for permission to exist. I would go where I want to go — perhaps to the café in the lane in front of my house, perhaps to the garden with my friends. I could make art without my dad getting angry, and I could cook whatever I wish to eat that morning and not all that's in the plate in front of me, and I could put on the pink bedsheets because I love them, and

And perhaps I won't have to hear my parents yell at me about not existing as they want me to be — I won't have to hear them disapprove my life choices from behind the door, what I'm doing, because in that house, I will be writing my own destiny.

If you sexualize Atreus, please get psychological help. Like this isn't even funny or quirky or weird at this point, it's straight up disturbing. Idc if he's fictional, the character design in this game is so realistic he might as well be real, and his voice actor is a minor.

It's not fucking normal for someone to witness casual p*dophilic and r*pe art and fanfiction in the normal main tags of a fandom. And it being romanticised and fetishized? Seriously? What is happening?

This is not me being a hater or harassing you, this is me genuinely being worried about your well-being. This is me telling you to take a step back and realize what the fuck you're actually doing. This isn't normal. You need help. Heck, I'm even open to talking about it with you and letting you vent to me by dms if you need to and I'll try to help you find resources to help or whatever.

#i'm at my fucking breaking point #jUsT bLoCk ThEm NO THATS THE THING I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SEE THIS SHIT IN THE FIRST PLACE #like this isn't just a weird ship that i don't like this is straight up romanticised child abuse #god of war #ragnarok #atreus

my hot take is that they should’ve cast lady gaga as the joker and paired her up with margot’s harley quinn for a mad love origin movie

#I’m sure she’ll be a fun harley but she gives way more joker vibes imo #(in terms of her acting not her own personality I would never say anyone was like the joker personalitywise)#(please note whenever I talk about a mad love movie I’m talking about one that accurately portrays the toxicity and abuse #and doesn’t romanticise it at all)#(with subsequent movies about Harley’s recovery and healing)

2023 reads / storygraph

Cage of Dreams

part 2 in the City of Nightmares duology

a prohibition era fantasy city where people turn into their real life nightmares. Since the nightmare phantom is free, people aren’t turning anymore, but that doesn’t mean the thousands of supernatural people and monsters stopped existing

Ness is once again just trying to survive day-to-day in the supervillain-esque city without ending up in the middle of a shootout, but once again finds herself pulled into the chaos of cults and evil mayors and criminal conspiracies

#cage of dreams #rebecca schaeffer #aroaessidhe 2023 reads #enjoyed this!#tho i will say I think plot wise it felt a lot….less? than book one.#like some big dramatic things happen but they felt on smaller scale and less significant than in book 1. less development overall.#not sure how much it added; other than wrapping up the story?#not necessarily a bad thing I just was like man I’m getting through this so fast #sometimes the ‘his dad abuses people and then makes movies romanticising abuse to make people think it’s okay!’ convo is a bit unnuanced...#but most importantly: DID NOT TURN INTO A ROMANCE I REPEAT THEY ARE STILL FRIENDS #there’s definitely moments when she notices he’s attractive or blushes and stuff #but the end only implies that they want to stay together (neutral) and has no overtly romantic implications #I will take that. thanks #(I'm sure people will ship it but like it's not canon)#no romance
