Simon’s Ghost

and they literally ignore that he’s the one inflicting the abuse, but he’s the only one being pitied and not y’know – the literal teenager he’s drugging and assaulting. f/eyre stans hate f/eyre more than anyone, i swear.

Have a nice day!

The pattern concerning POC is insanely racist. I need people to stop thinking of racism as something that’s okay so long as it’s not intentional. It’s an ideology — people are interpellated into it, most racists don’t think they’re racist. But SJM isn’t unaware, she’s never even tried to change, and the fact that she’s consistent in her treatment of POC insanely racist. The fact that she felt comfortable using the death of a black woman to sell her books literally reiterates how she treats woc/poc in her books. And if that ruins your fandom, than idk what that says abt you but hey...I just want to let you know that I literally have zero sympathy for racists and their apologist. Like zero, zip. If your idea is that it’s not racist, then idk what to say. You literally can’t get any more racist then SJM’s depiction of her POC.

the book also depowers her and encourages keeping the limits of her own power from her lest she conquer the world or whatever the fuck too - hashtag sjm is the queen of feminism I guess.

He could have talked to T/amlin after UTM and explain himself, his plans. But he lacks these critical thinking skills. I guess I should say Sarah did. When he almost breaks F/eyre’s mind to the point where she’s going to piss herself?? He had to do that? He couldn’t have just PULLED T/AMLIN ASIDE?? He couldn’t have explained to L/ucien? Maybe they take turns helping F/eyre? He couldn’t do any of this shit?? Like when I read the book, I thought of several different ways to go about things and I was a fucking teenager. R/hys is supposed to be FIVE HUNDRED.

completely took over an industry that was already restricted by nepotism and wealth and privilege and made it even harder for any new or creative or diverse ideas to be made and convinced millions of people that having lots of cgi is good cinema so now everything is so polished and shiny and ugly and soulless but still has this unearned cult of worship surrounding it so NOBODY can dare point out the military propaganda or bare minimum diversity or frankly bland filmmaking because if you do you're just a loser and it doesn't matter if you're a movie lover who just wants new and different content or martin scorcese because marvel has completely taken over cinema and criticism is not allowed because how DARE people not give a shit about iron man or loki and there's no need for decent characterisation or complex themes because it's easier to just make villains that are like "capitalism is bad...and also MURDERING CHILDREN IS OKAY!!!" so you can put out your sloppy storylines and make people think it's the morally righteous thing to do to pay money to watch every single one of your sequels and spin offs and reboots and whenever people start to complain about how the film and tv industry is becoming a husk of repetition you just shove benedict cumberbatch in the next spiderman movie or whatever because how can people be mad that we're making sure we're slowing sucking life out of the moving image when we're doing such fun crossovers? and of course all these crossovers are SO important so you have to watch all fifty movies and twenty shows and thirty spinoffs to understand anything else in our universe and you're damn sure we're going to be releasing the next thing as soon as the other is out of theatres or is out of episodes because we CANNOT have people straying and finding media that isn't owned by us at least not until our parent company has bought out that media as well because absolutely everything has to be disney and WE'RE the powerhouse right now and you are never going to escape it and if you want your work to get any kind of support or funding then you better hope you're lucky, know someone rich or with connections, or it features captain america because otherwise you can get fucked but don't worry sometimes we have movies abpout women too so we're actually a #girlboss cinematic universe and if you don't like the stuff we make then you HATE WOMEN and you HATE CINEMA and you HATE PEOPLE BEING HAPPY and originality and creativity is a myth and you're either with us or against us but if you're not with us prepare to find us following you all the fucking time anyway because you are NOT allowed to have interests outside of the MCU we are everywhere and either you will watch spiderloki 58: captain marvel: the revenge of environmentalists or we will fucking kill you ourselves

I don’t hate the idea of soulmates, it just makes the relationships seem so contrived and flimsy. It’d be better if the mating bond snapped into place after dating for a while, at least they’d know if they actually liked each other as people

I’m not gonna believe your character cares about or is working towards freedom for everyone.

That would make me believe a character cares about the ‘little people’ in general and the enslaved in specific.

I am tired of characters being shoe-horned into POC, when they are ambiguous at best. It’s just people trying to give SJM way more credit than she deserves. Especially when those head cannons feed into quite negative stereotypes. When SJM introduced characters like N/ehemia, T/arquin, and V/arian — they were explicitly described as POC. She knows when she wants to be frank or when she is just talking about tan white people. For me, V/assa falls in the later. And Illyrians are just tan white men.

this just makes no sense to me. tam was ALREADY mad??? he HATES amarantha and then she put his gf’s life in danger?? he’s already mad enough to want to kill amarantha, the idea that he needs some pushing to want to do it is just bs. in absolutely no universe does rhy/sand HAVE to do anything to make him angrier, messing with fey/re is only going to call his attention TO rh/ys when it wasn’t there before? idk how anyone can stand this man. based off his actual actions either he’s EXTREMELY dumb or he’s actively malicious.
