something something a victim of war being reminded of the cause of his suffering by being constantly shot at

It was a fun run for people to theorize that they're actual siblings, especially because of the Raggedy Ann correlation that Goose added to them.

What ISN'T right is using it to go against bunnydoll as a ship - especially when that theory has obviously been disproved, it's not canon, the cast wouldn't let people ship it with that obvious fact.

You can PERSONALLY see them with a sibling dynamic, you can PERSONALLY see their sibling rivalry with the way they banter.

But other people PERSONALLY ship it and PERSONALLY see them as a doomed, toxic couple (sometimes cute, we're delulu)

Because guess what? It's called OPINION and is simply a different visual perception of a dynamic.

Some people ship Funnybunny - and surprise, surprise, some people don't. They see them as platonic. Some even see THEM have a sibling dynamic.

For goodness sake, shipping is a non-canon indulgence.

At least, in this case, it is.

LET IT GO. Touch some grass, live your life, and ask yourself:

Why does it matter who someone else ships

YOU'RE NOT MARRIED TO EM no one's FORCING you to agree

Oh yeah... AND THESE ARE FICTIONAL CHARACTERS

I've been putting these thoughts together for a while now, but while there's discussion going on today about so-called 'toxic positivity' as well as some of the other Veilguard critical takes, I'm finally going to write it down.

I liked The Veilguard. A lot. And I'm not going to qualify that with some statement about the things that could have been done better or even about the development hell it went through. Because "I liked The Veilguard" is a complete sentence, and in fact maybe I'll start saying it more, just like that. (:

Something about me is that I like Taylor Swift (I'm making a point) and I have liked Taylor Swift since I was eleven. And for 90% of that time, people have laughed at me for it, or told me that she isn't even a good singer or that she dates too much or that her music is immature. My own sister brings up how much she hates Taylor Swift constantly without prompt. And guess what?

I don't care.

I Do Not Care.

That may be your opinion. And believe it or not, that's fine!

It is, however, very weird when I am asked my favorite artist and I say Taylor Swift and people feel compelled to tell me how much they hate her/her music/that she's not talented. And then I am expected to argue and somehow try to justify why I like her/what her music means to me/why i connect with it.

Spoiler Alert: it never ever matters what I say.

And it's actually fine if you don't like the same things I like!! What's weird is to come into a space where people are talking about how much they like The Thing and you feel compelled to tell them they're wrong!

And admittedly, it's a little funny to me that the same Veilguard critics who say that DATV is "too black & white" also can't seem to see that they're doing the very thing they're critiquing!! "I am good and smart for disliking this game and you are bad and stupid for liking it" is just a silly opinion to have on a video game and some of them say it with their whole chest.

So if you're a Veilguard critic and you're coming into the replies/reblogs of VG Positive posts just to talk about how we're stupid and wrong that's really odd!! And then, when we participate in the discourse you created, you call it 'toxic positivity'! It's almost like you're starting a fight you know we can't win because you're unwilling to change your opinion and you just want us to feel bad about ours!!! Which is, in my opinion, a strange way to spend your time.

I am large and I fucking love myself. I am chubby and have big thighs and the BMI says I'm obese and I love myself for all of it. If that makes you angry, fuck outta here and fuck outta my shit.

Yeah I love food. I love sushi and pizza and steak and desserts (not all at the same time), but I'm also active as shit. 20-30 minute walks at least every day. Dance class 2 hours a week, plus more that I do on my own. Active University courses. I work out.

I could go on a super restrictive diet to get myself as close to Hollywood standards as I possibly can, sure, but I would have to do that for the rest of my life non stop and never stop worrying because MY BODY IS NATURALLY CHUNKY.

I am BIG and I will STAY BIG and I love it and my friends don't care and my boyfriend swoons over it and if anyone tells YOU that your weight makes you lesser? LAUGH AT THEM.
