sorry I'm not a photoshop master but would someone mind hanging this up in the SNW writers' room because I think we have all had enough

#Nimoy's portrayal of Spock is INTENTIONALLY Jewish coded and visibly queer coded #you can claim ignorance as a casual fan but as a writer it's your JOB to know and honour this shit #SNW has done ok with autistic coding of Spock but the erasure of the other stuff feels deliberate at this point #like cishet white nerd men want him to be like them so they make these bizarro choices that feel like a totally different person #sorry but he's not FOR you #he was NEVER for you #you already have everything else please just let him be the way he was intended to be #let us have one gd thing #why are the opinions of people who don't care about Star Trek's ethics and legacy more important than the opinions of the those who do #star trek #strange new worlds

Something I think this fandom needs to comprehend is that it’s fine, it’s normal if something is not your cup of tea. You can still be friends with people who like it. No one’s forcing you to have that tea.

Fandom would be so boring if everyone drank the same tea. The coolest tea parties don’t just have one flavor, they have multiple kinds of teas, milk, cakes, cookies, cheeses, fruits, and homemade biscuits for us all to enjoy.

You can stick to your favorites, or you can go all out on the buffet table and get a taste of everything.

And also remember this is all homemade. If you don’t like the taste of something, don’t throw up on the whole table and ruin it for everyone who likes it. Just avoid it. 😐

#acotar #sarah j maas #like seriously guys we’re letting the negative nancies win here #y’all need to get more comfortable blocking out negative ppl AND YES THAT INCLUDES people who are aggressively negative to things u dislike #because while you might not.. someone else enjoys that #they deserve the same space in this fandom to enjoy things they like #<-read that again #you guys NEED to get over who’s opinions are right and wrong and just let other people have fun!!!

I think some people need the reminder that you can just not like things. For whatever reason. You don't need to justify things you don't like to anyone, as long as you're not making people feel bad for liking it.

You're able to not like something, but that doesn't make it weird.

You're able to not like that people like something, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're bad people (within reason of course)

And it's also important to remember that you may like something that other people don't like. That doesn't mean they have a personal vendatta against you for liking it.

That doesn't mean you're wrong, nor are they wrong.

People have preferences for everything. Just because you prefer something, that doesn't mean you're "right". This is fandom, there are very few things that even have a "right" and "wrong" side.

#rambles #okay getting off my soap box now #i was just reminded of a debate earlier that rubs me the wrong way #its fandom #have fun #but dont let your fun ruin other peoples #you can have boundaries without attacking people #you can have defenses and opinions without putting people down #you dont have to justify your existance in fandom and neither does anyone else #live and let live #all of these guys that we're obsessing over (in the rottmnt fandom atleast) are fictional #if you dont like something dont read it #but that doesnt mean others cant enjoy it #tag your shit and respect people's boundaries

Okay, people. I need to soapbox for a hot minute.

My favorite fandom worlds are imploding on their own people, and it’s fucking ridiculous.

1) Lockwood and Co.

I hate to point this out, but I’m gonna anyway. There is no Locklyle WRITTEN ship in the books. There is an implied ship. The author confirmed that it was intentionally implied. But it wasn’t written. So you know what? There is NO canon ship.

You know what that means? People can ship whomever the fuck they want without “breaking canon”. If you write Locklyle, fine. But that makes you no better than people who are enjoying other ships. And even then, it’s a fandom. It’s imaginary shit. The way to keep the fandom alive and thrive is to NOT PUBLICALLY CASTIGATE AND PUT DOWN other shippers and their ideas, works, or conversations. If you do that, it’s YOU who is poisoning the fandom.

2) Stray Kids

Holy fuck, people! Can’t we all just be adults?

a) Do not attack people who interact with our boys in a professional capacity. It’s not helpful to the group to give them a reputation for having an out of control fanbase. It could cause their opportunities become limited just because others are scared that Stay may get offended by something.

b) If you don’t want to support the new song, don’t. Don’t buy it. Don’t stream it. Don’t get it off of a secondary site just because you can listen without supporting the collaboration.

DO keep your choices to yourself. Your choices are not supposed to apply to other Stay. We can make our own decisions. Other Stay are not lesser, wrong, unethical, Zionists, pro-genecide or any other thing you want to call them. They are simply supporting SKZ their own chosen way.

In closing, this is simple. Do what you want for yourself. Stop thinking your decision has any bearing on other people. Your ego is showing. You aren’t that fucking special. Check yourself.

Thank you.

*steps down*

A vital part of political knowledge (and knowledge in general) is knowing when to say, "I'm not educated enough to make a statement about this topic."

It's okay if you don't know every little detail of every single issue at hand. But it won't help if you refuse to acknowledge where you lack information, where your blindspots are, and what you just don't understand. It's okay to not have an answer.

#politics #saying you aren't educated about a topic isn't shameful; it's a sign that you have self-awareness of your knowledge #that's a GOOD thing #this is different than willfully refusing to just not learn anything about the world and even then... i don't know if it's right...#...to force people into having An Opinion #having An Opinion is step one. the knowledge gained about topics should lead to the formation of An Opinion #but if you force people to have An Opinion with no knowledge about what they have An Opinion about... that's when it gets alarming #it's okay to not know things. it's okay to not understand certain topics...#...you can let people who actually know whatever topic to lead those conversations...#...and it's likely that YOU have knowledge and opinions that others don't have the knowledge to comment upon #that's how the world kind of works; it ought to be a collaborative effort and a continuous process

Okay.

So this might be an unpopular opinion (or maybe not), but as a bi woman, I would be fucking PISSED if Buck and Eddie ended up kissing or hooking up during the bachelor party.

#911 #911 abc #911 on abc #911 show #911 season 7 #911 s7 #911 speculation #evan buckley #eddie díaz #buddie #911 buck #911 eddie #911 buddie #buck x eddie #haven't we reached the point in society where the bi cheating trope is an awful trope #like why do they have to cheat on their partners #why can't they just dump them first #and I am so glad other people have said this too #and especially given buck's past with abby #and him telling Eddie that he needed to dump ana if she was giving him anxiety #it would be a complete disservice for him to cheat #especially with an actual healthy partner for once #and I know that he kissed Lucy while he was with taylor #but this could have so much more ramifications #just let buck and Tommy have an amicable break-up and stay friends #and have anything buddie related happen AFTER the wedding #im glad that they''re taking into account how important buck's storyline #and how they don't want to add anything negative to it in terms of buck and possibly buddie #okay unpopular opinion over #oliver stark

Way too many people online need to learn that minding your own business and not caring about fandom stuff you don't agree with is actually a healthy thing to do

See hc, fanart, fic, ship, character, piece of media etc. that you don't like? Scroll further. Block the op if you must or blacklist the tag or eventually vent in your own private space or to a friend in DMs. But don't make your discomfort everyone's problem by harassing people and make fandoms worse place for everyone

#i genuinely don't understand how some people just can't control themselves to not harass other people online #for *checks notes* having diffrent opinions and tastes in fiction #few days ago i was scrolling through some tags and saw a typical death threat tag towards shippers of some ship #and while i didn't even know the ship let alone shipped it it still made me feel bad for a second just to read something like that #fandoms #pro fiction #proship #anti harassment

Uh? It’s CANON Gojo and geto saw each other as BROTHERS.

alright I’m gonna answer this now lmao — I think with fiction everyone is entitled to their own take on things but with gojo and geto I believe the two to be soulmates — whether it’s platonic or romantic —

I personally see it as romantic, but if you don’t that’s completely fine and I’m not here to force my opinion onto you — it was in the tags — you don’t like, don’t read it! That simple.

I mean I could explain to you why I see it as romantic —

gojo calls geto his “one and only,”

the button left behind when geto defects is his second button that gojo ends up with — the button often given in Japanese culture to romantic partners / interests,

gojo literally says, when he sees kenjaku in geto’s body, “I know in my soul you’re not suguru geto” even in the English dub they localized is as “in my heart and soul,”

to add to that, kenjaku’s whole plan hinged on gojo freaking out upon seeing geto’s body — gojo is someone who is always very calm — he only gets emotional when it comes to geto. literally itadori dies and megumi got taken over Sukuna and he stays completely calm (for the most part), nothing in comparison in his reactions to geto’s defection or kenjaku

geto’s body literally fights back against kenjaku when trying to hurt gojo — and kenjaku has been alive since the heian era at least, and he says he’s never seen that happen before — what that says about their connection is pretty clear cut in my opinion.

the whole theme of jjk 0 is that love is the most twisted curse of all — where did gojo learn that from? Obviously there’s more than one type of love — but this movie was focused on romantic love in particular (between yuta and rika) but also was reflecting on geto and gojo’s relationship

gojo’s last words to geto are allegedly three words according to the VAs and what else could they be? Other than the theme of the entire movie — “I love you???” and then Geto literally blushes in the manga and says, “at least you could have cursed me in the end” — which gojo kinda did.

there’s a whole bunch of other things I could analyze and I’m not here to debate with you or anyone else! it’s fiction — it’s up to us to interpret things that are vague. And you are entitled to your opinion — but what I don’t like is you telling me that my opinion is wrong when it’s not!

It’s vague in the manga for a reason. never did they call each other brothers, nor did they call each other lovers — all they said is that they were best friends. And a lot of people are best friends with their brothers but also a lot of lovers are best friends so

you are allowed to have your opinion friend, just don’t tell me mine is wrong — if you don’t like the ship, read the tag and don’t read the fic!

#sab [asks]#sab [anons]#bruh I never thought I’d get told this #guys we are all entitled to our opinions #but doesn’t mean we can go around other people are wrong #I never will hate on another ship #because it’s not my place to hate on someone else’s fun or like #also guys #if you don’t like what you see in the tags #just don’t read the fic #or if you read it #don’t send me an ask saying you disagree unless you want to have a genuine discussion or conversation #don’t read a dub con fic that’s clearly tagged that #and say I didn’t like it because it’s dub con #yes I have tags for a reason don’t read it babe #no one is making you #sorry I’ve just been getting a lot of comments like these and it’s frustrating 🫠#no hate to this person but just let people have opinions about silly fictional ships

#idk if this makes sense but like #generally this is my stance on The Issues #a lot of purity culture in fandom spaces is based on this idea of like. if i don't like this thing it's Morally Wrong for these reasons #and i'm justified in hating on it instead of just letting other people have their own opinions and interpretations #i see a lot of this in the life series fandom specifically and it bothers me a lot #enjoy what you enjoy. other people will enjoy things too. it doesn't matter if it's 'incorrect' who cares honestly #anyway that's my 3am rant for tonight. chillax #astro speaks

Hands down, Give is one of Sleep Token's yearn-iest songs. Ever. It's not on par with TLYW, Jaws etc. (because that's a whole different layer of Sleep Token's yearning onion), but it's got a kick to it.

When I say that song is the epitome of desperate, I mean it.

Without thinking about it too much, the first time I listened to it my first thoughts were 'ah, okay, wanting to give all for your lover and be able to trust them, got it', but then I thought about it a bit more.

Like with all Sleep Token songs, it has a bit of an eerie undertone, which borders on slightly obsessive, depending on who you're talking to, with the lyrics. We have "I picture you when you are all alone", "I am the shadow, you're a passenger", "I'll be the limit of your light again" and, of course, "give me all that you can give" with "and if you want to give me anything, then give (give in again)".

Vessel is describing himself as literal darkness; he's a shadow in the gloom and whoever this is is a star glowing in the darkness. A light he aims to dampen because he wants a taste of that light. A taste of them.

However, it's this desperation for attention that gets me. "Give me all that you can give" is an easy example; he's desperately giving all he can possibly give in hopes of getting the same, or more, back. It's repeated over and over, half begging half demanding with soft dulcet tones and promises that he'll be watching for their enemies, to let them know that they contend with him etc.

Give becomes this two-faced thing of someone giving with all their might to someone who is afraid to trust, bringing up empathy from us, and someone who will not accept anything except everything. It's this sexually charged fight between who is a victim (or if there really is one here) and who is the abuser.

Further, to "give in" is to 'cease fighting or arguing; admitting defeat.' It's something primal and angry hidden under, or rather, mixed with passion, and it's incredibly well hidden.

#I know there is a bit of a divide between people who say it's just a passionate love song between someone who gives their all and is ->#only asking for the same back #Vs people who have the same ideas as me #so this is just my opinion!#would love to see anybody's additions or arguments for the other side though!#it does quite admittedly have me giggling and kicking my feet #'I will be watching for your enemies to let them know that they contend with me' had (still does tbh) me hook line and SINKER #and don't get me started on how he growls 'fibre from' in 'I'll tear the fibre from the filament'#it's this possessiveness and annoyance that's immediately hidden under 'I just wanna taste you better'#it's all these hidden little things that when you think twice about it it clicks #as per usual shout-out to Vessel for doing whatever the fuck he does with lyrics because I eat it up every time #give #give (song)#sleep token #st #sleep token analysis #sundowning #sundowning (album)#lyric analysis #mel's rambles

#byler #stranger things #byler tumblr #i know some of us have been singled out or humiliated by others on here insisting we’re delusional for our theories #and so you compensate by doubling down and telling everyone else their theories are actually headcanons and yours aren’t #or maybe you are someone on the other end who is fed up with bylers reaching and are sick of group think having a place here #some advice: just let the show be whatever YOU want it to be #if you think everything you analyzed is right and everyone else is wrong #congrats #you are as pathetic as the rest of the fans who think the exact opposite and also think they're right and you're wrong #we are one of over 350k ppl with differing opinions and thoughts and experiences guiding us to coming to the conclusions we do #i don't mind ppl giving different perspectives to things even if it goes against my analysis (just don't be an asshole about it)#i have changed my mind about certain aspects of the show bc of this and i have changed other peoples' minds as well #without all of us being able to say what we think we would not have near the evidence we do now #but what comes with over 350k people in one space also comes with some semblance majority that feels a certain way about certain things #it's never going to be perfectly even across the board #what is believed and what is agreed upon will always be shifting as different people say their peace and as the show itself progresses #and hell even if you're the 3% that feels a certain way about something and think the other 97% are setting themselves up for disappointmen #bask in your perceived glory WHEN that time comes #but in the mean time... me personally?#i think it would be quite embarrassing if i devoted my time on here to telling everyone else their theories are wrong and mine are right #only to end up being the one that was wrong #let ppl set themselves up for disappointment #save the celebration for when you actually secure that win #for now #id rather be on here discussing my theories/reading others' theories that aren't rooted in tearing everyone else's down to feel superior #all of this is to say it is never worth making ppl feel like shit over a fucking tv show… I’ll never get that #and this is coming from someone who has no (current) plans to say i told you so (not even to that redditor that has a 2 year timer)#bc until s5 comes out...#crazy together

if you think that Flint is in love with Silver is that really shipping or is that just media literacy

#okay I feel like an argument could be made either way re: whether flint is in love or not #but I also feel like there is enough evidence for that it’s just. it’s textual. he’s in love #silver on the other hand. I don’t think he’s in love with flint #I think he could’ve been. but I think #okay okay my opinions on romance are nuanced and I have to explain them to really get into this #people say that you can’t choose in relation to whom you fall in love #I say that’s half true #you can’t choose in relation to whom you form a connection #but whether that connection can be nurtured to love? that is a choice #in order to fall in love you have to let yourself. sometimes this is subconscious.#sometimes it feels like it isn’t a choice because you can’t remember choosing it #but the thing about love is it’s not a single choice. it’s a series of choices made again and again and again #and I think flint and silver had that connection. and I think flint chose to nurture that to love. and silver did not #*romantic love. that is. I would not argue that silver doesn’t love flint #but not in the same way. you know #damn check out that tags essay. anyway #this has been a post #black sails

You know what gets me about people who complain that The Chosen's Jesus is "too nice"? They're conveniently ignoring who Jesus is being nice to. They're either making a point not to mention (or they do, which is a real yikes) that Jesus is spending a lot of time around sinners, around the downtrodden, around people whom life has kicked in the shins multiple times. These are the people you want Jesus to berate for their sins? These are the people against whom you want the Lion to bare his claws? If you're eager to see him verbally take down the socially empowered self-righteous a few pegs, yeah, me too! But those are not the people Jesus is hanging around most of the time in the show.

And he's not saying there's nothing these people he loves need to repent for.

"It's not the healthy who need a physician, but the sick."

"All must repent or perish."

Are you not paying attention??

#the chosen #the chosen tv series #the chosen series #i usually mind my own business and let people have their opinions #but look i'm getting a bit tired of the 'jesus is too watered down' argument when folks just want to focus on condemning others #and don't actually pay attention to the text

why does it feel like the only people who actually understand Kai's personality end up being autistic people. Saw someone say he's cold and overly serious. I'm sorry?? are we talking about the same character?? The guy who forced Joe to call him Mr. Kebab?? The same dude whohad major beef with Alice over a fucking necklace??? Who chased Reko to tell her ghost stories?? Fuck in the manga he's such a little dweeb constantly.

Just because he's monotone and, I will die on this hill, has MANY autistic traits and or symptoms it doesn't mean he's this cool calm collected dude with his life together. This sounds like utter gibberish but all I wanted to do today was happily scroll through the Kai Satou tag and was slapped in the face with mischaracterization every now and again. To quote Nao he is simply silly and cute. And heavily burdened by the sins of his family as well as his own. But that's another story

#Kai Satou #your turn to shine #yttd #joe tazuna #nao egokoro #sara chidouin #reko yabusame #alice yabusame #yttd kai #I'm so normal about him (lie)#I have so many opinions and thoughts on his character #why do so many ppl fail to understand him he's like the guy ever #also yes i did see someone say kai had his life put together and just stared at it for a bit because HOW #motherfucker vehemently lived by serving other people he has no sense of self worth/value #and is terrified of letting himself get close to good people out of fear that he'll hurt them #and that SUCKS because that's EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED ☹️#i could go more in depth but i'm thinking so many thoughts abt the satou family #theyre so tragic
