it’s so funny when I defend lgbtq+ in front of my family and then we go out somewhere and it’s littered with the most yt liberal, pretentious group of ppl I’ve ever seen and they wanna scream “there goes one of ur friends” lmao girl get the fuck out my goddamn face with that.

#cherry chats 🍒#for context: one of our fav places to go is this giant thrift yard #and it’s basically run by a bunch of college students #a good majority are nb or queer #and everytime #they go out of their way to say those are ‘my ppl’#first and motherfucking foremost #they’re still white and that privilege doesn’t absolve bc the bitch is queer #second #it’s mainly them who draw a bigger problem w blk ppl than anybody #it’s all inclusitivy and love until a n*gger walks by #and then it’s pearl clutching and calling the cops #and victim complexes #like girl when I defend lgbt it’s mainly my blk trans sisters and aro aces #bc intersectionality be whooping folks asses #including other members #anyways #blk ppl stop being homophobic challenge #I’ve experienced a lot of yt queer ppl turning their noses up at me #it’s fuck them too #this ain’t shade to nobody #I’m just pissed off

Anyone who says the divine comedy is fanfiction has not actually read it. They may think they read it but really they just stared at each page and then set it down they did not read it.

#and for the last time before anyone gets their victim complex going: i do not hate fanfiction #but if your argument involves using dante's inferno as an example of fanfiction you are just. wholly misunderstanding #what fanfiction even actually is #tcp

time with complex trauma is like. i need to do everything all at once and if i don't i'm a failure, even if there's nothing to do. three months ago feels like yesterday but i can hardly remember yesterday anyway. i'm running out of time. for what? i don't know. i need everything to slow down but my life is so stagnant. i can't go to sleep because the day can't end, but i need the day to end or i'll go insane. i'm constantly worrying about the future but it feels like i have no future. i'm running out of time. for what? i don't know. time has no meaning but every second is the end of the world.

or is this just me?

#someone tell me they relate #i never see anyone talk about this kinda thing #softspoonie #cptsd #trauma #ptsd #complex ptsd #complex trauma #traumatized #actually traumatized #c-ptsd #post traumatic stress disorder #trauma victim #trauma survivor #vent

The Power of Control

An essay on Victim

Spoilers for Animator vs. Animation VI - Ep 2

So, our dear boy Victim, of animator vs animation ONE fame, has officially returned.

We have been waiting half a year for this guy to return, and here he is. Now we finally get to see what he can really do in the only thing that matters in this series. How much ass can this stick kick?

Well, as it turns out, not a whole lot.

Victim is not a strong physical fighter. But, what he lacks in strength, he makes up in something else.

Control

The express purpose of this white box, is to ensure that he has full, and unambiguous, control. You could say that everything he has built is for the express purpose of control. He is the CEO of a gigantic, very well funded corporation, and is the boss of probably thousands of employees.

he has dedicated money and men towards researching and replicating animation tools to give him direct power over the world around him. He gave his top Merc the ability to Stop Time. His tech is all to extend his reach of control.

And this idea of control is shown no better than his signature weapon.

A lasso. An unusual choice at first but it makes perfect sense. Its entire point is to restrain, constrain, and control another.

Victim is not a powerful stick, its why he was initially never able to escape the flash program he was created in. How he got out, and how he survived is still unknown, but I'm sure future episodes will show us.

What we do know however, is that after all these years he has took to heart one thing. True power, is control. The more you have, the more powerful you are.

Which is why Alan nearly deleted him. Alan had the cursor, so he had control, which made him powerful.

Of course, that power has an equally potent weakness. When you lose your control, you lose your power.

The lasso he has wrapped around so many, breaks, and he loses control. Without control, he is vulnerable. Without control, he is powerless.

Its no wonder he seemed so scared when he learned what The Second Coming was truly capable of.

And now, Second has also learned what he can do.

So, what does he do? He tries to reestablish his precious control.

But unlike before, this control is flawed. He never knew what our dear orange could do, he never planned for it. His cage was likely never designed to hold someone as powerful as he is.

Victim may have locked him away, but its clear his grip on the situation has slipped. A lasso can only restrain what it can hold after all. When the rope snaps, when control is lost, he has nothing.

It makes sense why he would be after someone with more control than anyone.

Cassian strikes me as the kind of guy who would physically overpower Nesta in order to cake her face at their wedding.

#anti cassian #anti acosf #this comes from me after unfortunately stumbling across a video of a man doing this exact thing #the uncanny look of glee and annoyance when his wife stalked off was strangely familiar yet i couldnt place from where #then the unnerving smile of a certain greasy haired fictional man with a victim complex slid into the crevices of my mind #fuck you cassian your acowar counterpart would be disappointed

right now im thinking about how draco didn't even know who harry was the first time he tried to befriend him in madam malkin's. he saw a scraggly lonely kid and interestingly, given what we know about draco, he didn't mock or ignore him but rather tried to strike up a conversation and even shared some of his own worries about the sorting - a rare moment of vulnerability for him given that he usually hides away anything that could be seen as a weakness. of course the attitudes he espouses almost immediately turn harry against him but he doesn't realize that.

then he meets harry again on the train, now knowing who he is, and once again tries to befriend him. in his mind he probably thinks harry's hesitation is due to the fact that draco wasn't impressive enough. this time draco doesn't share any insecurities about ending up in hufflepuff. he shows off his status and his cronies and brags about his family and offers himself as a useful guide to harry in navigating what draco sees as the elite of the wizarding world.

naturally this does not improve things and in fact only succeeds in turning harry against him completely and draco spends the next 5 years smarting at this rejection. the fact that this rejection is the basis of their relationship rather than immediate hostility is fascinating to me.

#they are so much more complex and more equal than the simple bully and victim relationship that harry and dudley or snape and james have #drarry #Harry Potter #Draco Malfoy #meta #Harry Potter meta #Draco Malfoy meta #my post

I never really engage in disc horse, but I am so baffled by some of the CR takes about Bells Hells ep 95.

Lemme preface this by saying that I thought this scene was FASCINATING and brilliantly played by Marisha and Liam. Especially after watching CR Cooldown, it's brilliant and heartbreaking and I am that sicko meme grinning as I watch it unfold.

But I have seen multiple people say that...

Orym defending himself against an unknown assailant who attacked him in his sleep (after casting darkness so he couldn't see who it was) means he's toxic and and lashing out because of his grief.

Laudna is a bad person for clinging to the only source of stability and company that she had consistently for 30 years, and her being essentially addicted and trapped in an abusive relationship makes her weak and evil.

it's Orym's fault Delilah is back because he actively encouraged Laudna to give her power... by nodding to agree that they needed to kill Bor'dor? As if he had any reason to know she was gonna suck out his soul and bring back Delilah?

Laudna/Orym should get over their trauma because what Orym/Laudna have dealt with is worse.

And holy shit. It's just... all of this is bonkers.

I know fandom is allergic to nuance, but can we like... try a little allergy exposure therapy?

Can we acknowledge that Laudna has a ton of trauma and is being manipulated by her abuser, but that it is still her responsibility to stop doing bad things? Can we acknowledge that Orym sucks at setting boundaries or expressing his feelings and it's damaging his relationships with the group, but that the solution is NOT to repress his feelings even more? Can we let characters be complicated?

#I don't understand the urge to—when we see our fave fictional characters doing a bad thing—say “actually no they're an innocent victim.”#isn't that LESS interesting?! let them do bad things! let them be complex!#critical role spoilers #cr spoilers #cr discourse #c3e95

team bolas' victim complex makes sooooo much sense from like a character standpoint and it drives me crazy. i don't think they ever left day one. i think in their heads, they're still burning themselves in that bonfire. half their players were inactive, they had a clear pvp disadvantage, and they kept getting killed by other teams. it was them against the world on day one. their only solace was each other when they felt helpless and they're carrying that with them to drive them forward. they still call themselves victims because if they win, then it's a pleasant surprise, and if they lose, that's just how it is with team bolas, right? it's better to have no hope at all in the first place than to feel the crushing weight of having your hopes dashed.

day one was hell. their friends killed them repeatedly without mercy, they had barely anything while other teams built their bases, and they were bottom of the leaderboard. they've come to expect tragedy, even after their multiple victories, after they've come to regard one another as family, after they've worked so, so hard to be one of the last teams standing and actually made it. they never left that bonfire.

#qsmp #team bolas #whiskeys word soup #i totally understand that watching their victim complex from other povs can be super frustrating #but the STORYYYYYY MAN!!! THE CHARACTERS!!! IMAGINE WHAT EFFECT THIS WILL HAVE ON THEM WHEN PURGATORY IS OVER #they're traumatized they've pack bonded and they're feral #i want to see them wearing gas masks and burning people back on quesadilla island when this is over #i just want them to go even more batshit crazy <3

Jesse explaining that although all three boys generally experienced the same physical abuse, Roman has internalized his experience as a victim in a different way than Kendall and Connor.

“I would suggest Logan would have cuffed and hit all the boys at different times in their lives. I think the difference for Roman maybe is that he feels like he was bullied in the domestic environment and so we can all react to things in different ways. I think Connor and Kendall probably have experienced that and have managed to accommodate it without it being a big part of their psychology whereas I think Roman being that beaten dog and being - there’s often a dynamic isn’t there with bullied people as sort of needing the feeling of negative attention that you get from that and I think he’s become, not addicted to it, but related to it.”

Excerpt from Firecrotch and Normcore: They Like to Watch (recorded at Edinburgh Fringe Festival) – Aug. 29, 2023

#I haven’t seen it circulate tumblr so I’m not sure how popular this take is here #but I think it fits when you think about Austerlitz and the scripts from The Disruptor and Honeymoon States #I really do wonder so much about Connor’s childhood though #like what on Earth went on in that house while Logan was on his way up #I can see it being both worse and better because on the one hand there’s no one watching but on the other hand…there’s no one watching #Man I wish we had more Connor lore #also endlessly fascinated by Roman’s victim complex #roman roy #kendall roy #logan roy #connor roy #hbo succession #jesse armstrong #cw abuse #cw parental abuse #cw physical abuse

the roblya failmarriage has SO MUCH potential. theyre both miserable, robert is still mentally in the vale and thinks lyanna is Close Enough to be able to be with ned, lyanna initially was resigned to marrying him but after he began whoring again she just mentally logged out forever. robert hates her because she’s breaking the mold he made for her in his head and lyanna hates him because he can’t keep a single promise + the humiliation that comes with being a stand-in for your brother. anyways they hatefuck sometimes.

#its very complex TO ME.#asoiaf #robert baratheon #lyanna stark #jordy.txt #i am deeply nedbertpilled when it comes to this nightmare marriage #shes a victim of yaoi

I know you’ve heard about Harrison Butker by now, and his embarrassment of a commencement speech at Benedictine College. You’ve probably seen the NFL kicker roasted six ways from Sunday for his misogyny, hypocrisy, and regressive nonsense. People have already written about his stupidity, everyone has memed his nonsense, and conservatives have applauded him for advocating for a return to the 1950s. That is exactly what he was doing, unashamedly. Butker delivered countless awful lines, saying, “Things like abortion, IVF, surrogacy, euthanasia, as well as a growing support for degenerate cultural values in media, all stem from the pervasiveness of disorder.” Which is an ugly mix of law and order rhetoric and sexism, a mix that makes no logical sense but scratches a certain itch in the mind of his conservative audience.

I just want to briefly add to the criticism of this Super Bowl winner, who will probably run for office before too long. Specifically, I want to highlight the inane variety of patriarchal bullshit running through his speech, and his apparent approach to the world. Butker and men like him are trying to sell us a load of hot garbage, and get men to be the worst version of themselves. They’re trying to make us see ourselves as victims, and encouraging us to use that false belief as fuel to go out and hurt other people. We can and should reject that directive.

We should reject it for countless reasons, but I think the place to start is to look at this guy telling us we’ve been oppressed by society and so we should stand up and be real men and tell women to be homemakers. He makes four million dollars a year to kick a ball, he’s won the Super Bowl, and he’s still a miserable person pretending to be a victim. All that wealth, all the success, and he’s going to speak at a college to tell young women, “I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.”

As they’re graduating college to go out into the world, he’s telling them to stay home and be mothers. He’s theoretically reached the American dream, and he’s spending his time telling college girls to be “homemakers.”

Oh and in the days since his speech it’s come out that his mom is an accomplished physicist. But nevertheless.

fascinating to watch how hozier speaking Irish in his new music is making some people: 1. fetishise him further and/or 2. make 'fun' jokes about gaeilge/gaelic/'''garlic'''' bc like. babes. i can guarantee you neither of those actions are separable from the lingering impacts of colonialism.

#not understanding some of the nuances around a 'dying' (killed) language is not shocking #but treating it like some weird little romantic bog man character trait is annoying #i'm being a wet blanket but if i creamed my pants over irish OR mocked the language here i'd get bottled #and it's been said ten ways to tuesday but stop fetishising what you believe irish culture is like #he is a normal man trying to speak a language that occupies an incredibly complex space in contemporary Ireland #how majority-white cultures victim to colonisation are worshipped/fetishised in a still-bad way but different compared to POC cultures...#i want an essay #the way people are drooling over it while showing that they didn't care about it until their fave white boy sang it...#additionally in a way they have never cared about POC native languages...........#none of this is hozier's fault it's just fascinating culturally #gaeilge #wasteland baby #colonialism #irish language #unreal unearth #hozier

desperately need people to understand that alicent is a victim but she’s also an abuser and a perpetrator

that she actively makes choices to harm other women because of jealousy and envy and the greed deep in her bones because submitting to suffering didn’t get her what those women fight to grasp for themselves.

she is absolutely a victim, in show.

that doesn’t change that she abused rhaenyra and her children, her own son, most likely helaena given how she flinches every time her mother touches her, and is actively weaponizing the patriarchy of westeros against other women- rhaenyra primarily, but also mysaria and dyana.

she isn’t the moral, righteous force of good that even she thinks she is, she’s a wounded woman directing all of the rot, pain, and fury inside her at the wrong people and forces.

#anti team green stans #anti team green #anti alicent hightower stans #i don’t wanna say it’s anti alicent bc honestly it’s more ‘accept her for who she is bc she’s so much more complex and interesting when you #but i made this bc someone genuinely tried to say that the reason people hate her is that they don’t see her as a victim #most rational people know show!alicent is a victim #it’s the point that’s she’s an abuser as well #that makes them dislike her #that she’s a hypocrite and a traitor #i don’t even like young alicent bc i don’t at all think she was a good friend to rhaenyra #‘it’s not your place to question the plots of lords and men’ to the named heir #dismisses rhaenyra’s hopes and idealism entirely out of hand #is baffled that rhaenyra is more worried for her fathers happiness and mother’s wellbeing than her position #she knew as early as ep 3 that otto was conspiring against rhaenyra and never told anyone #condemns ‘targaryen customs’ only to wed her daughter to her son even younger than she was when otto dangled her before viserys #acts entitled to rhaenyras secrets whilst condemning and judgemental even though she did not give rhaenyra that same courtesy #made no attempt at apology for the insensitive comment of aegon’s birth #though rhaenyra DID try to apologize for the ‘imprisoned in a castle’ line and tried to comfort her #uses her power as queen to push past the space rhaenyra is trying to create because she feels heartbroken and betrayed #rhaenyra took part in alicent’s culture with prayer at alicent’s urging because she cared about alicent and alicent was trying to help her #alicent is never once shown to return that favor instead condemning it for ‘queerness’ and growing to later #erase and remove all targaryen and valyrian heraldry from the red keep to replace with her own #like alicent is a victim and i DO have empathy for her. but i don’t like her and never will #especially not after the way her stans behave #she deserved better than otto’s machinations and viserys’…. viserysness #but that can also be true whilst i condemn her actions and behaviors

"people want to be oppressed so bad" says person talking about asexuals and 15 year olds with neopronouns rather than incels on 4chan who think women are evil for not sleeping with them

#i get called out for having a ''victim complex'' for pointing out general aphobia that exists #while there's cishet white guys who think liking video games is the reason why they can't get laid and that the world is to blame #when they're literally just unpleasant #but sure i'm the whiner for saying that by certain viewpoints i don't qualify as human #sure
