You know when I was expecting a fight between Leo and donnie, I was learning it towards Leo would be pissed at Donnie for using reader. But now it seems more likely to have it be the opposite way round. I'm not sure if Leo will tell his brothers about this but I think he will and maybe that would start the fight because Donnie has clearly shown that he doesn't like when reader is upset and he tries to fix the problem. Then Leo comes in, makes reader even more upset and Donnie is obviously going to be pissed at him.
Props to Mikey and raph for being chill lmao. I think doctor feeling needs to come in soon for the sake of everyone and with the inevitable entrance of alopex.
hehe. yeah. i do imagine donnie's going to be Pretty Upset when he finds out what happened, huh?
but. y'know. it's not like his hands are completely clean either. and leo Does see you has his best friend. the scene at the end of 20 was completely genuine. i imagine he's going to have some beef of his own to bring to the table.
.....chapter 23 is going to be A Lot Of Fun. for me at least!! :)

‘stan culture and politics should never mix’ how old are you and how have you made it this long without realizing literally everything is political, even (especially) the stuff you wouldn’t expect
no shit i get that (i am literally a person of color constantly being put in predominantly white spaces. i fucking know how inherently political my own existence is) but i'm talking about the way stan culture operates to put a celebrity at the forefront of a conversation when it really isn't about them in the bigger picture especially when it's about the said person's politics. like ok sure awsten signed a ceasefire petition. put "free palestine" on a setlist. good thing to do it's just the bare minimum and nothing to write home about but stans will always usually twist it to be like "wow i'm so glad he's speaking up like this i'm crying it's so brave" when they should actually redirect their praise to the people on the frontlines who often don't even get respect in death - iz

I'm fucking sick of this belief of 'healthy ships are boring' or 'healthy relationships are only for real life'. Ok so I can't like a healthy fictional relationship without being shamed for it? I can't avoid toxic ships because of my personal traumas without being called boring? Grow the fuck up. Whatever happened to letting people like what they like?

G'morning 💟💟💟
This is a ramble about a post about the Harry Potter books (wishing they were not written)...
I Really Enjoyed the Geodyssey series by Piers Anthony (Isle of Woman, Shame of Man, Hope of Earth, Muse of Art... I never read the last book... Climate of Change)
I read the first 4 books many years ago, and I Really Enjoyed reading these books and the style of writing that spanned across many generations and time periods. I re-read this series many times over the years, and each time I enjoyed the stories and the characters.
Piers Anthony is a prolific author that has written a plethora of books. I have only read the Geodyssey series, and not any of his other works.
And then something happened and the reputation of Piers Anthony changed from 'respected prolific sci-fi and fantasy author' to 'creepy creep'... He was writing too much about panties and female bodies and teenage sexuality and he is no longer popular or respected 😶
These things are confusing and sad.
Many times I have experienced emotional cruelty from others in the form of 'You like/enjoy (random media)? Then you must be the kind of awful/evil/wrong person who supports (inappropriate behaviors of the creator of that media)!'
These things are confusing and sad.
I imagine that about 98% of Creatives are Normal Humans that will be sometimes good and sometimes bad, but always Humans that are Going Through It, making mistakes and learning, and never perfect... And only about 1% of Creatives are perfectly evil rotten humans, and only about 1% of Creatives are perfectly good kind humans. The individual that consumes media is not responsible for the actions of the media creator. I guarantee that all humans have enjoyed a work of art/music/literature that was created by someone that they would be repulsed by, if they were to know the creative personally. Should this diminish the experience of enjoyment that the individual feels upon consuming the media?
For example... Michaelangelo was secretly queer but openly hatefully homophobic. In person he was bitter, condescending, sadistic, and rude. He did not bathe, and upon his death he had had the same pair of stockings on for So Many Years that it was necessary to scrape them off of his skin with a spatula. Meeting him in person would not be a pleasant experience for most humans... But he gave us David and La Pieta and the Sistine Chapel and So Much More! Should the Beauty of those works be diminished because they were created by an asshole?
And Jared Leto is a bad person and a bad actor, but Mr. Nobody is still an emotionally beautiful and thought provoking film.
There were too many examples, across all media, and through out all time. Should you choose to only consume media that was created by perfect humans, it would be necessary to live bereft of Art.
I perceive Art like this... There is a Collective Consciousness of humanity's ideas and imagination (the noosphere) and Creations are conducted into this realm of reality (born) through the Creatives (conduits). Consider the Michael Sheen quote/acting advice about the characters they portray not being able to exist unless they open themself and channel that out into the world (paraphrasing)... Consider a child being born... Is that child an extension of the parent? Responsible for the behaviors of the parent? Or is it its own entity that should be perceived by its own merits? Creations of Art are the manifestations of ideas and imagination that have been born through the conduit of Creatives... Creations of Art are the Children of Creatives. Should you be repulsed by a beautiful child because its parent is ugly or vulgar?
Have been thinking on this for a day or so... And just wanted to submit these thoughts for your consideration.
(I agree 100% that JK Rowling is a jerk and this ramble is Not About That)

Good morning!
It's definitely a. Complicated subject? I agree that people shouldn't be harassed for what they enjoy in media, though. Someone who harasses or belittles others for what they enjoy in media will always be 100x worse than the person that's enjoying the "bad/problematic" media.
I personally could never read the Harry Potter books after what happened with JKR, but I do understand that there's a good amount of people who read the stories *before* the transphobia stuff came out, and to a lot of those people the series means something to them. There is some degree of separating the art from the artist, although it's impossible to do that entirely.
I think it's mostly fine as long as one acknowledges the problems that a work does have, things in the work that are. Prejudiced, for example. Although I do also understand that there's a lot of people that would rather not be. Reminded about Harry Potter, or talked to about it, or it upsets them when there's references to it.
Both of those people—people that are attached to Harry Potter and keep talking about it and making fanwork for it, and people that don't want to talk about it and having it referenced makes them uncomfortable— are valid. As long as nobody's harassing or belittling anyone else. Although, I will note that, while I can't control what anyone decides to do with their money bc it's their money, even the people who are still fans shouldn't buy things that are going to give money to JKR.
