i love that post that's like "sometimes you need to think naruto would be proud of you for brushing your teeth" well MY favorite character that i have an unhealthy fixation on would tell me to kill myself because my life is literally, canonically his worst nightmare

(person who doesn't read yuri and doesn't even really post about f/f slash) don't forget about yuri! you didn't mention women just now, especially lesbians, so i'm just butting in to ensure you aren't forgetting about the fact women, and especially lesbians, exist, and if you were to do that you'd be a misogynist! just so you know! #yuri #wlw #inclusivity

okay yeah i do think your filler is off putting and your botox makes you rigid and strange to look at

I know you think it’s “feminist” to hate on women who already have self esteem and image issues (through no fault of their own, as a direct result of patriarchy) for doing something to help them cope with their fleeting youth - which may or may not have been stripped from them against their will due to years of depression, abuse, oppression, or whatever else - but the truth is that the freedom to get Botox is actually a right feminists have fought for - whether intentionally or unintentionally. Women used to get thrown away when we outlived our youth and beauty - now we have the option to prolong it and change the way we are perceived and treated by society as a whole. We ALL had to grow up too fast. We ALL have to cope with a childhood that ended too soon. I’m no less a feminist than you are simply because I choose to hold onto my youth and beauty because it helps me feel better about my own loss of innocence. This is all just another excuse to hate on women and tear us down. You’re literally letting the patriarchy win by judging women for their personal choices which harm absolutely no one. Please grow up. Not everyone is conventionally attractive or ages gracefully. Some women can cope with that and some can’t. Both deserve love and respect. Have some decency. You’re not edgy for this. You’re hating just like a man would.

not all your fave blorbos can be masochists some of those fuckers gotta enjoy beating the shit out of someone during sex

wish people dabbled more on how much of an asshole™ L was in the manga. genuinely so fucking rancid. i get the whole emotional and sensitive L thing going on with official adaptations, but i don't think people make him an asshole enough ngl

if you want your female characters to both have agency in the story and be complex human individuals then sometimes bad things have to be their fault

Also if a female character in a story has canonically bad things that are at least partially her fault it’s not #girlboss feminism to blame it on everyone but her and accuse the author of being sexist for daring to imply a woman might have done something wrong

haha yeah man female dogs are bitchy and female horses are bitchy and female cats are bitchy and female ferrets are bitchy and female rats are bitchy and female guinea pigs are bitchy and female birds are bitchy and female rabbits are bitchy and female everything is bitchy. lol! isn’t it so funny how you think that! isn’t it so silly that this is your perception of literally every species! haha! i’m sure there’s nothing to unpack there! i’m sure you’re 100% accurate and unbiased in your conclusion that female animals are just inherently evil! i’m sure you have very normal thoughts about human women too! teehee! isn’t everyone laughing! isn’t it so goofy!

Literally begging people to engage with media in a way that isn’t “strip layered characters into a one-size-fits-all babie personality that’s basically just the phrase ‘appley juice :3’ as a personality”

I don’t know how many times I have to say this but if you smooth away at every rough edge that makes a well written character interesting you’re always going to end up with the same smooth sphere. And if you’re only comfortable playing around with that sphere then either you never liked the original all that much or you should probably have a long think about how you consume with media and why this is the only way you seem able to do so

like many people have said this better than me but no it IS odd that we've come to think of potatoes as so quintessentially european that their presence in historical fantasy where they're anachronistic doesn't jar. and yes people are trying to have the trappings of post-colonial europe without engaging w the icky colonialism part and yes people are neglecting to imagine what a european cuisine without potatoes would be like.

im fully in favour of 'let people have fun w their fantasy world' but is considering how the potatoes got there in the absence of colonialism not a fun exercise? maybe every year the dragon riders go on a great transatlantic potato pilgrimage

they should make it illegal to end your story with an epilogue where your main female character is suddenly randomly married and has children when she's never once expressed a desire for this previously
