do you want a tissue?

if i were a guy i’d sooo be picking fights at bars as a repressed homosexuality thing

far too many people treat charlie kelly as if he were a real-life child instead of a fictional adult man. the outrage and histrionic behavior towards anybody who dares to acknowledge that charlie, a character on the “terrible people caged in a labyrinth of abuse and toxicity who will never foster normal relationships or lead functioning lives” show is responsible for heinous actions or has formed interpersonal bonds that are uncomfortable or cross conventional boundaries is lowkey unbearable to witness. i love charlie, but it is ridiculously difficult to engage with his character on online forums because it is rendered a mortal sin to propose any analysis other than “charlie is a uwu asexual skrunkly baby whose intentions are pure of heart”

the worst form of posting invented on this site is to draw 2 featureless mannequins acting out some twee generic ship bullshit so that anybody can apply anything they want to it. the perfect distillation of why the vast majority of fandom content is such dull repetitive slop.
