The Starborne

gameoverse seems fun enough. but the cynical feminist in me can't help herself. all the male characters are like, cartoon blobs, which is contrasted strongly by the two major female characters in this pilot, both of whom are hour-glass shaped humanoid women who spend most of their screentime in swimsuits. and like that's not an outright dealbreaker but i *am* staring into the camera with my eyebrows raised.

idk i'm getting really tired of this "connecticut clark and malfina" type shit where male characters get to be Silly Abstract Little Guys but women have to be women shaped. it's this male-as-default thing that i hate where you don't need to add anything to a character design to imply male-ness but the woman better have wide hips and booba or else yknow like idk it's not outright Offensive but it is tiring

Team Sky is gonna love this

every 14-16 year old is the bravest person on the planet to me

talking to a 15 year old like wow okay you are like if scrambled eggs was a person. I don't know how to save you. the way you move through the world is reminiscent of a stray cat whose soul got punted into a human body. said human body is currently undergoing changes and floods of hormones that would result in cities being levelled if you were perhaps a big dragon and not a medium sized primate. been there. good luck I love you

you don't have to excuse the behaviours of shitty teenagers, but you DO have to remember that they've been on this earth only as long as your cat. you have to ensure that the way you respond to said behaviour reflects this. yes they're an entire person. they're also going through a period of the most insane rapid transformation (physically, mentally, emotionally and socially) a person can experience in life. are they an irredeemable monster or are they just a very impressionable young person floundering through their first Strong Opinions based on what they've seen online, with ridiculous amounts of Hormone That Makes You Hate Everything in their bloodstream?

YOUNG TEENAGERS. are YOU an irredeemable monster or are YOU just a very impressionable young person floundering through your first Strong Opinions based on what you've seen online, with ridiculous amounts of Hormone That Makes You Hate Everything in your bloodstream? I'll give you a hint. it's the second option. cut yourself some slack too! try your very best to be kind, try your very best to consider people with differing experiences to you, and maybe take a step back from discourse that does nothing besides make you upset. you've only been an animal alive on this planet for a decade and a bit. there are artisanal cheddars at your local supermarket older than you. take it easy. eat more fruit. save up for a second hand bicycle. join a local club. it's impossibly difficult to be a teenager but you have it in you, whether you're aware of it or not. I hope you can be kind to yourself, because you DO deserve that kindness. kia kaha [:

tired of not being blatant on my opinion. i fully believe in transandrophobia and just scrolling on tumblr for ten seconds proves that its real. being in support of trans men does not inherently mean you hate trans women and the same people who say it doesnt exist are the same one saying "awh does it hurt your wittle vagina birthday boy 🥺🥺🥺🥺". also i dont believe in tme / tma ESPECIALLY when perisex people hide behind it. i'm intersex, i was forced into "womanhood". i identify as both a trans woman and trans man but does that make me tma or tme. who gaf. i'm never labelling myself as one or the other.

i am actually insufferable once I get comfortable with someone

What a beautiful thing to be someone a friend feels safe to be vulnerable with

how dare you turn my self-deprecating midnight rambles into a hopecore positive post

Get hoped

Yall ever have that "favorite character" that just keeps coming back. Like. They've been your favorite since childhood. Even when you gather more favorite characters, they're still there. You're always happy to see them. Your relationship and reasoning might have changed, because you've aged, but... they're still your favorite. They mean THAT much. And that probably won't change anytime soon, because they've been though so many things with you.

There's been a discussion on Twitter lately about "Playing the game vs watching the game" that all stared because someone said that they watched a gameplay of Persona 4 Golden & after a hour became interested in the game & were waiting for the game to be on sale so they could buy & got called a "laper" because of that.
