So yeah this is a thing @sir-adamus - Tumblr Blog

parents are allowed to straight-up torture their kids with zero consequences. they can withhold food and water, lock you out of shelter, confiscate your belongings, bar you from human contact, attack and harm you and exert complete control over your physical appearance. and this is just the norm. if you speak out against it you're seen as a delinquent or a predator. even otherwise progressive people get uncomfortable with the idea of dismantling the nuclear family unit because they still see it as the best way to keep kids safe when that simply couldn't be further from the truth. it's evil.

I think there's some medias that you just cannot meaningfully engage with if your main priority is shipping

So many other kinds of human connection get put to the wayside with our current culture’s obsession with romantic love.

Don’t get me wrong it’s ok to ship romance but it doesn’t have to be the only type of relationship we celebrate in media, fandom space included.

a thing about me is i basically never notice a wig or other kind of hairpiece in tv/movies. it has to be party city territory for me to even twig it. people will complain about characters' wigs looking bad and i will nod along but there is like a 90% chance i did not notice for a second while watching. i consider this mostly a blessing.

Saw your post from a couple days ago about that person who couldn't let early RWBY go and was fixated on Dust being more important than it ended up being. And while I do agree with what you said in that post, to be a bit of a Devil's Advocate I do think the show was initially planning on making Dust more important than it ended up being. Early on it is a weirdly focused on bit of world building for something that mainly just allows characters to shoot ice bullets and such, and you have stuff like the WoR with Salem making foreboding comments about how Humanity doesn't understand the origin and true consequences of stuff. I think it was gonna get more focus, but was left behind as they decided how Capital M Magic was gonna work in the show. Kind of like the Ozpin tease in the Aura WoR about how mastering your Aura can make you "much more than just a man".

yeah that's a valid point

that said, I'd put solid money that the fixation on the importance of Dust for most of these people has little to do with that, and more to do with hbomb claiming in his review of the Beacon arc that the "Dust heist plotline" goes nowhere, completely ignoring that Cinder says early on in the 2nd volume that they're done stealing Dust, and then on the train Roman and the White Fang are working on, the crates of Dust they stole are clearly visible, on a train that also has giant mechs and the armed White Fang, as well as bombs, and it's very easy to put two and two together on that with it being clear that the aim was to amp up tensions with all the robberies (and strain the Dust supply), then attack the city with an army of Grimm and White Fang, causing a mass panic in all the chaos in the days leading up the tournament, so that citizens will be even more on edge (but Oz and company will be lulled into a false sense of security that they've contained the primary threat)

it always seems to root back to people not paying attention to when the show is communicating something without having a character outright explain it to the audience, and then complaining that it's bad writing

leviticuswilkes

Also, it’s very important to note that the Dust Robberies were all extremely high profile stuff, which ended overnight once Roman Torchwick was captured. Qrow directly speaks to this, noting that the fact that the criminal underworld collectively got out of dodge was a massive red flag for him personally, and presumably Ozpin and company in general.

And of course, the idea that Dust overall gets relegated to the background of the story ignores how the Atlesian Dust Embargo both left the world weakened and less defensible AND caused the world to resent Atlas (which will surely be an issue in Volume 10). It also ignores the importance of the SDC, and how Jacques behavior surrounding it informs both Weiss’ character and the themes of Trust, Pragmatism, and Selfishness that run throughout Volume 7 and 8.

So yeah.

#RWBY #all very good points

you must remember that you're gonna continue to find things (art, nature, people, etc) that amaze you and ground you and you're gonna be glad to be alive to experience it

I can't make this kind of decision. I'll screw it up. Lara, this is your life. Whether we work with Waller or not, you have to have a say in this. We can figure it out together, but we can't do that unless you trust yourself.

This is your reminder today that Irene Adler in the original Conan Doyle story is literally not a criminal. She never commits a crime.

thehumantrampoline

Nor is she a seductress in any kind of negative or manipulative sense - she has a mutual relationship with a powerful man who then breaks up with her, and afterwards she keeps protection against him in the form of evidence that the relationship existed. She HAS blackmail material, she even waves it at him threateningly because he treated her like shit, but she never even uses it.

Irene Adler is not a thief, femme fatale, or blackmailer. She's just a cool lady that wants to be left alone.

thehumantrampoline

@delphi-star You do recall correctly!! She does not give a shit about that man! She's happily married! She tipped him for being a witness at her wedding!

If your Sherlock Holmes adaptation has a character whose identifying qualities are that she is a seductive criminal in love with Holmes, you have created a character that is basically the literal opposite of Irene Adler and you should name her something else.

tzikeh

She's also -- and I cannot stress this enough -- from New Jersey. IMO this is the single most important detail missing from all the adaptations -- IRENE ADLER IS FROM NEW JERSEY.

Please just once in my life I would like to see this adapted faithfully it would be the funniest fucking thing ever.

Oh for chrissake everyone was so busy comparing Eradicator to Doomsday that I totally missed he's actually Cell. And now here he is in his handsomer, more human looking perfect form to destroy us all.

#My Adventures with Superman #oh yeah #MAWS!Eradicator is already kind of a mix of different characters #H'El - being a clone of a member of the House of El with additional powers most Kryptonians don't have #Superboy - being a clone of Superman with elements of Lex added #and Doomsday - constantly evolving and regenerating #and as for DB characters he serves as one to Cell #with his whole ultimate lifeform thing #plus the ability to regenerate from damage that would normally be fatal #but he's also got elements of Goku Black - being a copy of the protagonist who is more intelligent and sophisticated and can time travel #and the whole 'ruined the future of the time traveling character' thing #and then he's also got elements of Buu - with how wildly he can alter his form and split himself apart #and having the more intelligent version (Super Buu) alongside the more primal and brutal version (Kid Buu)#i do like how they don't just do one clear expy in this show and leave it there #like Clark is both Goku and Adult Gohan #Kara is Android 18 and Vegeta and Future Gohan #Hank was both Androids and Cell to a degree #Primus Brainiac was Frieza #but the Coluans are the Tuffles and the Brainiacs are effectively Baby #Jon and Jonathan are clearly Future Trunks but so is Lara

no offense but you guys need to learn the difference between someone implying their experience is universal and a post simply just not being about you
