no, fiction does not directly affect reality, and your preference in fiction does not echo your morals or how you treat people irl. however, fiction CAN have a marked influence on emotions and baseline prejudices, and if your response to people (rightfully) getting upset over something that you understand to be triggering is to yell 'fiction doesn't affect reality!!' and continue to blog openly about it in a public space, then that DOES have a direct impact on people around you and it DOES inform us about how you treat others as a whole. It means that you're a boundary-disrespecting obnoxious asshole who doesn't care about other people's comforts as long as you can prove a point.

do you ever see such a blatantly incorrect and downright stupid + insulting reading of your favorite character that you want to snarl like an angry cat

I feel like you can tell which adults were the toddler that immediately ate the marshmallow instead of using self-control, waiting, and getting two marshmallows at the end, and then shit on the patient toddler as if they, with their one marshmallow, somehow got the better deal.

Vaguebitching

Verb: The art of ranting without mentioning context or subject; The act of expressing frustration and exasperation but not wishing to identify the context or subject.

See also: vagueblogging, vaguebooking

Sponsored by: The act of enforcing boundaries and having a goddamned life that exhausts me, but clearly, I’m in the wrong for falling asleep after a long day (you know, because being a massage therapist is clearly not physical work at all), instead of responding to someone but of course, it’s my fault and I need to “learn to love people with an open heart” because I’m not accepting someone’s emotional abuse.

me any time I’m reminded Real Life People follow my art blog: oh my god what if they notice 100% of my art is reblogged by an almost identical username and follow it and Find Me whAT IF THEY FIND OUT I’M SHIPPING MY OWN CHARACTERS TOGETHER OH NO

Holy shit I never new finding a fucking shit assing cunt blasting piece of fuckshit twat truck was so shitkicking difficult.

Also, if [K] wants to vaguebitch about me taking another late lunch, she can eat my entire ass. A few months ago, she made a big deal out of [M] showing up for a shift she asked to take off, but this is a new low. Is she really going to make a fuss about NOT having to be on the phones?

Why are there all these Thorki shippers who apparently don't like Loki, and just think he's a no-good lying self-deceiving butthurt pissbaby drama queen who has no legitimate grievances against anyone and just likes killing people for no reason? Look, I'm not one of the Loki apologists who claim that he's never done anything wrong or screams "abuse!" every time Thor so much as lifts a finger toward him. Anyone who reads my blog (or my fic!) knows that. But I also think Loki has some genuine reasons for complaint about his treatment in Asgard, and it does an injustice to the interest and complexity of his character to ignore them.

Nuance, people. It's possible to rebut the apologists without careening to the opposite pole and completely tarring Loki's character. Anyway, if Thor is such a flawless angel (as such people tend to claim, once more eliding nuance in their rush to take the polar opposite position from their adversaries), why would you ship him with Loki if he's as much of a piece of shit as you make out?

@foundlingmother, you'll understand what I'm vagueblogging (vaguebitching) about.

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out why people don't just name names and give actual useful critique instead of being vague. You aren't really helping anyone and we'd all prefer honest bitching to vaguebitching! Got something to say, spit it out! Like gurl, you're on anon. L & G, Remény

Love making fandragons for my favorite characters! Hate being able to share them in the fandom discord I'm in because someone refuses to shut the fuck up about how much they hate one of them, no matter how many times I get upset about it

Imagine buying a 10,000 snake and then refusing to take it to an exotic vet after it has spasms so you just sell it for 1,000, couldn't be me

Finding out that someone who was nasty to me in a discord about one of my fav characters is actually an anti-anti who talks about her incestuous ocs no matter how uncomfortable people get and gets mad at mods for telling her to keep nsfw stuff out of sfw channels (bc minors are in the server) and calls it 'pearl-clutching' is one of the biggest examples of 'huh. Well I'm glad its not me but also Jesus Fuck' i think i ever came across

Head in hands. Guys the Knight is a fucking child. They have the phsyiology of an actual baby vessel, which is proven multiple times in the game when comparing them against the Pure Vessel, Hornet, the Pale King, and the White Lady, who, while at varying sizes, are all larger than the Knight and have tapered faces. Mental age is up for debate but physically they are canonically a fucking child
