"can you be a fan of a video game you havent played" discourse is stupid, because plenty of people who played the game have some of the dumbest fucking takes ive ever seen

Star Wars: Outlaws fanart, it's been a while since a game has grabbed me this much ❤

#I loved this game so much #and I'm so sad it didn't get the coverage it deserved #Also Nyx just hits that epitome of SpaceDog for me

we need to bring back the phrase "what business is it of yours" in a big way i'm serious

valtsv

i know you can just say "none of your business" but phrasing it as a question with a jarringly formal tone is the ideal way to shoot an overfamiliar unwelcome overture dead in its tracks and force the person making it to confront the boundaries they're taking for granted + it would really piss people off which is funny

valtsv

&also it allows you to experience the joy of talking like an autistic vampire, which i highly recommend

"None of your business" = I am being rude

"What business is it of yours?" = YOU are being rude.

So I'm not saying I believe 100% in tarot now but the cards warned me at the beginning of May that I would need to save for an unexpected expense in my future and...

...I came home and my garage door had carked it.

(Everyone say thank you for the forewarning, tarot cards. I had enough in my savings to fix it tarot cards.)

My name is Pink and I'm really glad to meet you You were recommended to me by some people Hey (uwu) is this illegal? Hey (OwO) this feels illegal

#I thought it and I hate it so now you get it too

Coworker I mildly dislike who happened to be walking out of the building at the same time as me: WHAT is that woman wearing?

Me, looking over: Uhh, a costume?

CIMD: Yes, but we're in the MIDDLE of the CITY on a WEEKDAY.

Me: Yeah but that's a Disney character, right? There's a Disney show at the Arena at the minute.

CIMD: Well, I still think she should get CHANGED before she goes in public.

Me: I mean, it's a pretty rad costume though.

CIMD, sensing I'm not going to bitch with her: ...I suppose.

I absolutely blame Facebook for this shift. Words cannot describe how freaking WEIRD it was in the mid-00s when there was suddenly this popular website where you were required to use your real, brickspace name and encouraged to post photos of yourself. Every single bit of Standard Internet Safety prior to then said that you should never ever ever do either of those.

shallow-between-stars

Myspace just so fucking dead it's not even remembered

willgrahamscock

I think we are focusing on the wrong thing when talking about mainstream romantasy adult books, instead of shaming straight cis women for reading kinky books, we should tralk about how most of the newer books aimed at that demographic are just conservative propoganda, rebranding patriarchy as a kink.

willgrahamscock

There's nothing inherently wrong about liking the types of kinks that are present, control, power imbalance, dark themes, but when you really look at the top performing novels (which they are mass prodicing at questionable speeds) it's hard to ignore the ever present morally grey man, who's posessive over the heroine who starts off as otherworldly different from the 'regular woman' aka damsel in distress), is cruel to everyone except her, and the fantasy world revolves around the control of women, especially when it comes to forced pregnancy.

willgrahamscock

I'm seeing a lot of responses to this saying "this is why I read queer stories" but you're missing the point! You can relate to queer media because you're queer, cis straight women should also have material that aren't turning their opression into kinks in almost every. single. book. If they want to choose to read those stories, that's absolutely fine, again nothing wrong with exploring those dynamics, but the concerning part is how fast they're being made with the rise of booktok, and the looming threat to women's autonomy.

Remember when all mlm stories were borderine assault stories in the early 90s-2000s? and how long it took for other queer stories to be made? we all used our voices to make a change, it didn't magically stop we fought for it to not be the only type of story.

lyricwritesprose

And the solution to this, for people who are wondering, isn't to try to suppress romantasy books because they're not "good for women." That's an old, old game and never goes anywhere good. The solution is not less kink and less porn. The solution is more kink and more porn.

Because when you think about it, the problem isn't that you can go to your chosen bookseller and find a story where Sparklia Special gets semi-forced to have babies for Broody McDarkenfay (it's okay, she's into it). The problem is that it is unnecessarily difficult to look a little further down the shelf and find a vampire princess domming the hell out of the hunter who knows he shouldn't love her. Reducing people's choices always serves the reactionary agenda one way or another. Expanding choices. That's where it's at.

(If this sounds like I am making a pitch that we should write porn to defeat fascism, that's…not entirely a mischaracterization. I mean, of course it won't defeat fascism, but I do feel that while we work to defeat fascism, we should at least have diverse and satisfying porn.)

shallow-between-stars

I absolutely agree with a lot of this and it addresses many of the concerns I have with romantasy as a whole.

However -

Romantasy isn't romantic fantasy.

It's dark romantic fantasy.

And the things that are mentioned here are tropes that are present in dark romance. The being controlling, the obsessiveness, the 'only soft for her' are all genre tropes of the mobster romance, the serial killer romance, the monsterfucker book. These books are usually read by women who want the MMC to be a controlling, borderline abusive jerk and the girl to be naive and corruptible. That's part of the appeal - the what would I do if I was coerced into being bad?

I think the question is less "why is the romantasy formula ONLY dark boys and naive girls" and more "why did a very specific genre about extreme power imbalance (where the man is the one with the power) become popular?"

"Romantasy is just stupid porn and you should feel bad for reading it."

Yeah, yeah, we get it. Comics are good, barbies are stupid and makeup makes you look like a whore.

#There are some genuine criticisms I have with the romaantasy genre #however a lot of people trash it just because it's by women for women.#Which is where I will throw hands

persianmom-deactivated20260602

hate that I was understanding when I should’ve just been a cunt

#Me for like five years of increasingly frustrated “I know you're having a rough time but I haven't seen you for ages”#Before the final “Look I care for you and you're my friend but unless you start making an effort"#“And also stop LYING about our friends when they're not around”#“I'm going to walk away”#“Because this one way dishonest bullshit is killing me.”#And then like... three more chances before I walked away.#(The sad part is I'm absolutely SURE he still lies to the friendship group about me)

OMG that's hilarious. Someone just came onto my comment and tried to lecture me and when I called them on it, they blocked me.

Trash taking itself out lol

My student: Miss, there's a math question we can't do.

Me: Okay, what is it?

My student: There's a shape with six sides -

Me: Hexagon

My student: ...Hexa... that. It wants us to find the length from one point to the point on the other side. We can't work out where to put the line to make the right angle triangle.

Me: Is it a regular hexagon?

My student: A...

Me: Are all the sides the same length?

My student: Yeah.

Me: How long is a side?

My student: 5 cee-em.

Me: It's 10 centimetres.

My student: ...Huh?

Me: Regular hexagons are made up of 6 equilateral triangles, dude. Corner to opposite corner is side-length times two.

My student, eye twitching: Can I throw my book?

Me: I fully understand but no. No, you can't.

i think we should bring this back (with some amendments ofc) if we ever needed an "internet etiquette" for the younger generations, now is the moment to remind them. purity culture kills fandom

as well as the three laws of fandom:

Don't Like, Don't Read (DL;DR), Your Kink is not My Kink And That's OK (YKINMKATO) and Ship and Let Ship

NO ONE LIVING hasn't been squicked out by something. There's over 7 billion of us, my delights and disgusts aren't universal. So I move on. Don't like the ship? Move on. Don't like____? Move on.

I am not an exception. Neither are you. I don't like it I move on and shut my gob about it because everyone everywhere is squicked out by something and they need to put the thing down and just…motor.
