the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

it is genuinely hilarious how the Hand Jumper fandom keeps collectively forgetting Doyeon Lee. every single time i see a "Lee family" edit or post it's ALWAYS Sara, Samin and Sayeon. it's like the exact opposite of when fandoms get really annoying about male characters to the point of overlooking the women. no one gaf about that man. he contributed a wee bit to the existence of his fab daughters and then died. their ma perished a bit later too but SHE'S constantly haunting the narrative so still seems to be extremely plot relevant. meanwhile the only thing i remember about him is that only two people cried at his funeral and his wife wasn't even one of them

hey can everyone do me a favor and put in the tags why they chose their name? even if you don't go by a chosen name irl, you can put why you chose your online name.

i love it and hate it when a character in a story is so obviously created to be cool and awesome and then i do think they're cool and awesome. like fuck, yeah, ok, they're fucking epic. swag as hell. you got me you coolbaited me ok? i'm coolbaited.

The use of the princess bride implies that they’re both windex

it also implies that op developed immunity to windex

Happy pride to the op with immunity to windex

that’s cool as fuck though

i like when fiction treats love as a more complicated force and not something that is inherently pure or redemptive. portray it as flawed and complex as any other human impulse. give me love as prejudice, love as possessive stasis, love as addiction, love as blindness, etc.

at that, i find it disingenuous to frame it as “if the person hurt you they could not have loved you. that is not love.” just not a productive definition of the word to me
