writin hurt eatin dirt

i can't express how absolutely important it is that when you make an edgy, brooding, badass character who's tough as nails and good at fighting and whatever, you HAVE to give them at least one reason to become completely helpless and pathetic. you have a panic attack quota to fulfill.

Remember when joining fandom as a younger person meant lurking for a bit and figuring out the vibe and etiquette instead of coming in on day one and calling people weirdos for liking weirdo shit in the weirdo factory.

what character(s) do you associate with the person you reblogged this from?

so like do the people who call themselves Marauders fans ever like address the nasty little rat man whos fourth wheeling their gaggle of men or is it like just yaoi love triangle

"i know that this IP is irrevocably tied to one woman's crusade to brutalize and repress a vulnerable minority but don't worry! ive found a trio of characters within that IP that dont include a girl. this absolves me of sin."

people love to pretend rap is THE misogyny genre and that for some mysterious reason, it’s the ONLY genre defined by its misogyny. and, in fact, it’s PRAXIS to hate rap and never listen to it. how very interesting! i wonder what that reason could be! can any of YOU imagine what that reason may be? 🤔
