i am once again disappointed but not surprised at the COD fandom only caring about “sensitivity” when it’s convenient for them
#telling people it’s morally wrong to simp for makarov#whilst simping for graves or valeria#or ANY character in this damn series#just shows that you only give a shit about ‘sensitivity’ when it doesn’t inconvenience you#‘but he’s bad :(’ my brother in christ. let’s talk about western militaries#price nikolai and gaz literally kidnapped and tortured an innocent woman and child#the UK and US militaries have DEVASTATED vulnerable countries#y’all wanna talk about sensitivity?? then acknowledge how even the ‘good’ characters like the 141 are shitty!#none of these characters are good people!#i cannot stress this enough. eliminating characters because they’re ‘problematic’ eliminates the entire cast. every single one of them.#MAYBE farah would be safe?? i’m not knowledgeable enough to say for certain. but everyone else— 141. los vaqueros. laswell. alex. nikolai. +#valeria. graves. every last warzone operator. EVERY single character is ‘off-limits’ with that logic.#COD fandom is also horribly racist despite pretending it’s not. notice how people only talk about this when it’s white folks being impacted#no one gave a shit when a middle eastern woman and child were kidnapped and tortured. or when fans were romanticizing cartel violence.#or how the SAS CIA and Delta Force have histories of terrorizing vulnerable people; especially in the middle east and asia#i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again before anyone accuses me of smth false:#sensitivity is important. it can co-exist with letting people enjoy problematic things. the source itself is problematic —#ergo. everything that comes from it (even the ‘good’ things) is as well.#you can’t cherry pick which characters people are allowed to be critical of. you can have your faves and have the ones you dislike#but don’t act like you’re doing something noble when your sensitivity is biased.#sylph.talks

“Fanon enjoyers don't like canon, they only like watered-down, bastardized, and
Woobified characters and headcanons that are safer and sanitized” - some comment I read
Tumblr media
#fanon#pro fanon#pro fandom#anti canon#even#or more like ‘canon is already perfect for you so what are you even doing here’#go enjoy your tough characters nothing bad ever happens to#or when it does it is never addressed and/or nobody helps them/is brushed off by the narrative because obviously plot needs to happen#go enjoy your cast of characters that all hate each other#also ‘safer’ and ‘sanitized’ to describe fanon#lol#lmao even#As if most canons weren't safer and more sanitized than the fanon and their weird and gritty headcanons#like if a dad is mean in canon he is overall abusive in fanon#that is a fanon law#Draco in leather pants is a thing#Bo Hoo you were traumatized by Draco in leather pants and now you don't like fanon#go back to canon or write or commission your own canon-based fics then#like go enjoy your stoic character they just bore me#perhaps the reason there is so much woobification is that most canon characters are stoic and fan on fill the gaps of what is missing?#for some to find the characters appealing?#appealing and relatable?#have you thought of that?#also ‘watered down’ just means with more feelings or more relatable for female audiences admit it#or more archetypal because the full characterization is often hard for amateur writers and that doesn't necessarily mean they are#‘watering down’ characters on purpose#anyway the point of my rant in the tags is that fanon is supply and demand#it gives fans what they WANT in the story or characters even if it is OOC but is MISSING from the canon#otherwise it wouldn't be needed duh#anti canon purists

Lockwood & Co. really does have the best book to screen adaption I've ever seen. And the changes that were made not only improved upon the source material, but most importantly - felt true to it.

I don't get people being angry at yesterdays episode?? People have been talking about wanting Dorian back since he left and now we're finally getting that and people are mad? Yes it was a tonal shift and yes it halts the main storyline but I think the campaign needed that. The mourning and character development doesn't stop, it'll still happen in the coming episodes and acting like it should've all been resolved in one episode is odd. The players probably need time to process, Sam needs time to figure out a new character and a natural way to introduce them to the story, Matt probably needs time to figure out how to incorporate Sam's new character and how last episode changes things in his narrative. And both those things are hard to do in an episode Sam couldn't be there for. So they stalled. By bringing back a fan favorite and show what's been happening with him and his path back towards the Bells Hells in order to set up his (wanted, asked for and anticipated) return to the cast. I get that it was unexpected and can understand it's not everyones favorite development (not everyone liked EXU and thats totally normal and fine) but why the anger? You don't have to watch the last two hours if you don't want, but why ruin it for those who are exited by this development or what it could mean for the future of the campaign? Personally I think this will be good for the campaign long term. I want to see where this goes. And also I'm just so happy to have Robbie and Dorian back because I've missed them so much.

I love the m2 references in m3 a whole lot but the lack of almost any specific m1 rep slays me
#theres Berry tofu and TECHINICALLY eight Melodies. that’s it. and the melodies aren’t even specific to m1 so who gaf#tbf I Love earthbound gameplay and story wise more. and it’ll always hold a special place in my heart bc it was the first mther I played#BUT. I did like the last couple hours of m1 a lot#also The George Maria & gigyas stuff went so hard it was good ok#ALSO TEDDY.#Idk why but I couldn’t attach myself to most of the mother 2 cast#only like ness and that’s it#teddy however. teddy is my goat#mother#mother 2#earthbound#mother 3#im the only mother 1 fan and I don’t even like 70% of it#nor is it even my favorite mother game. or my second favorite#I DID LIKW IT THOUGH#beggining is Rough. middle is fine. end is peak ((except for the area not tested who the fuck came up with that))#the best way to play m1 is with rewind features I’m being so fr#also anyone who played without the run button. you are stronger than the troops#in General I dont think ppl like m1 like at all.#Theres like 5 pieces of merch for it on the hobonichi store and 3 of them are buttons.#Theres also the towels but that barely counts#it sucks that I like the m1 team more but like. i want to see the m2 team do more !!!!!#i thought poo (metaphorically? spiritually?) giving up his arms went hard#I loved Paula’s hopefulness. i Love Jeff having a lot of self confiecene issues and his bf and the fact his dad kinda sucked#NAD I LOVE NESSSSSSS I LOVE NESS SO MUCH#but the m1 cast is given so much more flavor text it makes me kinda mad#ninten liking penguins and loving baseball. Ana refusing to dissect a frog. Lloyd being autistic af and THE EVERYTHING AROUND TEDDY???#Peak. absolutely Peak#genuinely if the gameplay was on par with m2 I think i would’ve enjoyed it more than m2 im being so foreal#also i Love magiciant in m2 but the calm version from m1 goes SO much harder and that’s also why it’s the one represented in smash dont@me

Why do people care about what a creator does if they like the stuff they have made?
This is a difficult question to answer. It depends on the context, typically on a case-by-case basis.
For example, Rowling is a Terf; so she's been transphobic. She's also lied to her audience and has lost her touch in writing over the years. She's an extremely rich woman and a popular one at that, which means she can use her platform and money towards transphobia; just like the FNAF creator, Scott Cawthon. Scott donated thousands upon thousands of dollars to Donald Trump's campaign and is also pro-life; meaning this guy used a good portion of FNAF money towards a political campaign over who has influence over the USA Government.
Disney Company had sent $100K+ to Republican Parties in Florida, a party that managed to pass a "Don't Say Gay" Bill to prevent schools from teaching about LGBTQ+; and supports the anti-abortion bill, which I hate to remind people, Abortion is no longer protected federally because Roe vs Wade was overturned, and several women and their doctors have been tracked, harassed, arrested, and jailed for it.
But bear in mind, that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Disney is a monopoly that controls nearly the entire entertainment industry. Rowling probably has contracts with Warner Bros, and Warner Bros has theme parks, books, and all sorts of Harry Potter-themed stuff that has been deeply ingrained into people's childhoods, which means Rowling was already influential and rich prior to her controversy; and parents and children will always consume Harry Potter content, regardless of a Rowling Cancel Post.
Scott Cawthon passed off FNAF to other people due to his cancellation (for the best, but it's unfortunate his family suffered death threats) But he still spent thousands of, basically, children's money on a political party that doesn't have their best interest in mind.
Now Vivziepop's allegations are much smaller in comparison. Some creators get a big head with all the "THIS SHOW IS PERFECT!" "YOU GOT ME OUT OF MY DEPRESSION I LOVE YOU GUYS" "YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY SAVED ME" "YOU GUYS ARE GENIUSES!" and tend to develop a sense of narcissism, and slowly become awful people towards their fellow coworkers like Ellen Degeneres did.
This is important because if anyone from the fanbase were hired since this is an indie studio, they could be taken advantage of or shocked when they learn how messy the studio is or how poorly fellow employees are treated by the person everyone worshipped.
This all being said though, cancel culture typically doesn't work. A lot of people that 'messed up' are still very much around and still vastly successful.
Some people try to take a "moral high ground" and chastise and harass people who consume content that originated from someone who has been "canceled", which isn't fair. Just because you like the Harry Potter franchise does not mean you're a transphobe. That's not logical. I've seen people claim they've pirated or got all their Harry Potter media second hand and they're STILL harassed, which is ridiculous.
And a bigger reality is, (Scott Cawthon being the exception) a lot of the content is not only made by canceled creators. Harry Potter was made crazy popular through the movies thanks to the actors, directors, and music directors. Are all those people transphobic because of association? Absolutely not. So fans should not be either. Especially if they're pirating, which is a strike against financially supporting these canceled people so they can't use your money for shady shit.
So to answer your question, people care about what a creator does because creators have power, and need to be kinder and smarter towards their fellow employees and fans. JK Rowling being a transphobe is a major jab at every trans Harry Potter fan. Scott Cawthon supporting pro-life is a jab at 80% of the FNAF female fanbase. (It's not even just the fanbase, their power extends to political stuff outside their creations, so its a major jab towards trans people, women, gays, POC, etc )
Vivziepop mistreating her employees makes her a bad boss, and potentially, a bad person. It makes Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel fans feel awkward about enjoying, supporting, and praising a show while some of the people who made it are suffering behind the scenes.
Some of the employees are not suffering behind the scenes, they may be on Viv's favoritism list or just don't have too much contact or trouble with her, and they do get paid and gain traction and experience through Spindlehorse, and make great connections, and they may be great people in comparison.
So... shrug? How and why you support or consume a creator, company, or franchise is up to you, and you alone. Weigh your morals and decide for yourself.

wait stop i had a revelation in the shower and it is just SICKENING
Shou Hayami was the secret guest on the first day of the latest tales of festival performing as Vholran, but then he returned as both Vholran and Woodrow for day 2 right. Which is to be expected like, haha characters sharing a voice actor, you know the drill, they exploit this a lot, we love to see it, likewise they got Okiyau reunited with what i'm sure is his favorite toy
Tumblr media
Heck, even Shimoji (Shionne) gave a couple lines as Karya, so like, nobody gets left behind, y'know? Anyway for day 2, the secret guest was Kratos which elated me ofc. but i just realized. That's Fumihiko Tachiki. That's. that's Balseph the man also played Balseph in the most recent game in the series im??? and. I don't think they even acknowledged it, like, at all???? did they forget?????
First he doesn't star in Arise's OP when all the other Lords did, and now this???
Tumblr media
they just keep doing him dirty

It’s not that I’m not a fan of Babylon 5, it’s more that I’m MORE of a fan of what the show could have been if it had not diverged from the way the story was being set up through Season 1. I’m a fan of what the path not taken was trying to be.

one of the things i’ve noticed that changes between this series and the last is the newfound emphasis on diplomacy & decorum. i do understand why, both in how the narrative changes w the introduction of new ideas and frameworks as well as how it might want to adapt to have its own voice, themes, etc. but gone are the days of yes-anding oneself into strange situations and in are those of yet another scene highlighting the importance of a letter of introduction—and that was personally a huge reason why i liked the original series so much. i don’t even mind like diplomacy as a narrative device when it’s equipped in interesting ways but when it’s constant introductions to new characters that go relatively similarly every time & a very clear narrative voice insisting that original solution wouldn’t work when it’s 1. more interesting to me personally and 2. not even working any better practically, then that starts to get super boring
#personal#even when i was a middle schooler reading these books i was never much a fan of the roman camp but i just didn’t have the skills or words#to put together why. i think a lot of it comes from this. because i certainly enjoy the characters a lot but this aspect just makes them#very boring to read about. i’m invested in the characters’ emotional lives but when it comes to practical stakes i find it draining & dull#which i want to emphasize is not my natural response to these things being present. it’s these specific characters in this specific world#written by this specific author that makes it not really my thing in this instance#bc stuff like political intrigue is probably my favorite type of conflict (besides like deep personal ones) and yet i’m SO picky in how it’s#done and so the stuff i like i really like#but it’s also very hard to come by#that’s not the only reason i struggle with it. i think esp coming into the third book (i’m a little under halfway through)#that it’s a bunch of things: the huge cast that sticks with us the whole time (i do like how they’re constantly broken into smaller quests#like i think that’s well done but it’s just so many characters to deal with for so long)#the rotating perspective. the emphasis on relationships (and how that’s framed w/i the text. shadow & bone s2 did something really similar#to this). etc. but yeah. in good news: the writing is much improved from tlh even for the characters i really didn’t likes’ perspective#chapters. i do think the way the cast is broken up is good and so is the conflicts between them (with some exceptions. insecurity in#relationships is kinda boring to me but so are ships in general so that’s not a surprise). there are still characters i don’t like but they#are much improved by this book (although you can basically figure out which ones i like vs. don’t based on which book they first appeared in#in this series).#so yeah that’s my review so far :p we’ll see if i stick with it because i remember not really enjoying the next two books either when i#first read them. but my tastes have changed a lot (i say. keeping nearly my exact same rankings thus far)

[◉°] … toji & y/n being a couple for 10 minutes straight pt.3
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ。˚ 𓂋 ❄﹒✦﹒✿ ˚
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
꩜ actor!toji x actress!reader
⤷ synopsis : just toji & reader being idiots in luv…
꩜ content : crazy fans, very mild physical violence (toji pushing ppl lol), toji being a little ooc again. this is really not as wack as the warnings are making it sound.
- a/n : loads of people seem to be enjoying this & i enjoy making them, so here you go! :D
. . . part 1, part 2, part 4
masterlists
Tumblr media
౨ৎ first clip
(recorded by your fansite) - you & toji are at the airport and it is packed. there are fans swarming you, practically suffocating you & toji, along with paparazzi taking pictures of you, flashing lights in your face. your bodyguards are literally at war trying to guard you and you have to cling onto toji’s arm to even get past the sea of people.
all of a sudden one fan somehow gets way too close, and grabs a hold of your shirt, trying to drag you towards him. you jerk forward and without even hesitating, toji just grabs the face of the crazy fan and pushes him away like it’s nothing, causing a domino effect having other fans falling over as well.
toji puts an arm around you and guides you to check your tickets, ignoring all the chaos he caused behind him.
(this got a lot of mixed reactions, some people siding with toji saying he was just protecting you & others criticising him for his rash actions that could’ve caused people to get injured 💀)
౨ৎ second clip
you & toji were doing a video for WIRED, taking part in their popular series, “Web’s Most Searched Questions” about yourselves.
“okay third question..” you say, and peel off the paper. “are _____ and toji..dating?”
you & toji look at the camera and then at each other, faces hot and you’re both awkwardly smiling before looking at the camera again. you & toji speak. “yeah, i dunno.” “nooo idea.” “literally no clue whatsoever.” “why even ask that like-like we’d know the answer?”
you peel the next question and it’s even worse. “are _____ and toji having- A BABY?!” you shout and cover your face laughing, both in shock and amusement. “what?!”
toji just facepalms, hiding his pink cheeks and sighs tiredly. “christ…”
౨ৎ third clip
you’re at a press conference for the series you and toji are in, all the cast members are gathered on a long table with microphones but it’s a pretty informal gathering and the fans are being very interactive with the cast!
a crew members hands the microphone to a fan who has a question. “hi! hi, i’m sarah and uhm..i have a question for toji. and _____ too! do you think that your characters have a chance of..like..getting together? like romantically-?”
“yeah we’re getting together,” toji responds bluntly, reeling in the loud cheers from the crowd & he decides to add fuel to the fire. “and we’re gonna have a make-out scene too.”
the audiences goes crazy with applause and whistles, while you pinch the bridge of your nose, shaking your head in embarrassment as the cast look to see your reaction.
then the director of the show pitches in, holding her finger up. “just to clarify, we did not discuss this..”
there’s a chorus of laughs and sad ‘awws’ among the pool of fans which only makes you giggle. you didn’t even know what to say to toji’s brashness.
gojo chimes in with his loud mouth while everyone is still buzzing from toji’s unexpected words. “talking about kisses and stuff like. this guy’s just saying what he wants to hear!”
everyone starts creasing up again and you & toji lean your heads to look at each other on opposing ends of the table, and he just smirks at you while you just shake your head and try not to look so obvious..
౨ৎ fourth clip
vogue did a video with you getting ready for a fashion show you were invited to, by the designer herself.
the makeup artists had just finished your shimmery, fairy-like makeup and now the stylists were accessorising you with jewellery and fixing your hair.
“yeah i really like how the hair is done,” you say, referring to the baby pink ribbon tied cutely around your bun. “it’s really cute! and the dress is just so-”
the door to the dressing room opens and toji pokes his head in, the camera zooming in on him. “‘ya done yet?”
“toji?” you ask, exasperated. “toji get out! we’re not finished yet..”
toji looks you up and down in confusion. “ya look done to me. we gotta leave in like-”
“toji i am clearly not finished. we have to go through which jewellery looks the best with the neckline of the dress and..my whole look altogether so it doesn’t drown me out! and then we have to pick the correct shoes and make sure i’m comfortable with them and that they look pretty but also don’t take attention away from the dress. and then for the perfume-”
“yeah, yeah, alright, i get it.” toji totes. “but we have to be there in 30 minutes so-”
“oh toji’.” you sigh, looking in the mirror while the stylist fuss around you. “it’s okay if we’re late. i’m the main event. the designer invented me personally. they won’t even start the show if i’m not there. it’ll be fine, trust me.”
toji looks at you for a moment and then simply shrugs, nodding and accepting your words.
౨ৎ fifth clip
“so yeah, this is the book i’m reading.” you hold up ‘pride & prejudice’ to the camera for your fans to see. you were on a livestream, which you don’t usually do, and many fans were watching. “i just love this book. the characters are-”
loud, thudding footsteps can be heard in the background and you pause. a deep, clearly a man’s voice can be heard and then a shirtless toji walks into frame (as identified by his tattoos bc his face is not on camera). he reaches out of frame.
“sorry, jus’ forgot my shirt.”
he puts his shirt on, not even realising what he just did in front of 50,000 people and walks out of the room
it all happened so fast, you sit with your jaw open like a fish, holding your now forgotten book in your hand while the chat goes wild, spamming questions of “who is that?” “is that toji?” “you and toji are together?” in a frantic, chaotic fashion.
you just look at the camera and reach forward, abruptly ending the live. fans did not stop talking about this moment for months and they most certainly did not believe you when you said toji was just at your house for a little ‘visit’.
