“one day im going to have to make like a three hour long video essay that's just called In Defense of Helluva Boss” Please do. I see more anti videos than I do with defense ones. Like the ones that say season 2 is terrible even though it’s barely completed and the ones that say Stolitz is a bad despite them barely having a relationship.

no literally i am sick of seeing more anti content than actual appreciation videos but the anti talking point i see most that drives me up the fucking walls is that it's "bAd RePrEsEnTaTiOn," as if that is all that queer people are allowed to have; just the vague nebulous concept of "Rep(TM)." the fact that if a straight character is a bad person then it's just that This Character is a bad person, but if a queer character is a bad person then This Is Bad Representation Of The Community And Is Homophobic. can we not just HAVE characters?? vehicles to tell a story??? tools to craft a compelling narrative??? this is part of why Helluva/Hazbin being adult shows is such a THING because i see this get shut down a lot under the guise of "uhh well just because it's an adult show doesn't mean that it can handle whatever topic it wants however it wants" and like. yeah buddy! that's true! and that's not what this is fucking about!! when people say "it's an adult show" what they mean is that it's made to be engaged with under the assumption that you would know better than to take information to shape your worldview and perception of other real life people from a fucking cartoon! the show doesn't NEED to tell you that Um Hey Guys Just So You Know This Isn't Actually Meant To Reflect How All Real Life Gay Relationships Are because you are an adult who should already be able to discern this.

"bad rep" doesn't mean "characters that are nuanced, morally gray, or just bad people." "bad rep" would be if helluva boss was a show that said "the REASON these characters are in toxic relationships / are bad people is BECAUSE they are queer, or at least directly correlated to that fact." which is. you know. very fucking different than "these characters are in toxic relationships / are bad people because they 1) live in a classist society that actively encourages them to be their worst selves and 2) are extremely traumatized."

#btw when i say toxic i DO mean stolitz but not in like. a 'this is romanticizing abuse !!!!1!!!!1!1!!' kind of way #which is. the second stupidest criticism of this show #like babe did you really watch blitz break down sobbing on his couch and see stolas drowning in his depression cereal and absinthe #and some how come to the conclusion that the lesson you are meant to take away from this is that This Is A Good Thing To Aspire To ?????? #their dynamic IS toxic rn!! neither of them are communicating properly and neither of them are getting what they TRULY want #and the whole point of watching this situation (this shituation; if you will) play out #is to be entertained first of all BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY #because you are supposed to go Man This Relationship Status Sucks For Them Right Now I Sure Hope They Can Make It Better #you are supposed to recognize that it is Bad for them right now. because you are a fucking adult who should have a CRUMB of media literacy #god. sorry this is so long #video essay is gonna be four hours at this rate istfg #mine #ask #helluva boss #stolitz #analysis #long post #fandom

Watching a few people give stupid criticism over Gen Loss that makes 0 sense, from being annoyed that not everyone’s a perfect actor to being annoyed that it isn’t Hollywood level stuff.

I also saw someone say “ I can’t suspend my belief because that’s not how online media works” no my dude that’s how fictional media works

when you watch a movie or show you suspend your belief for the sake of enjoying it

It’s the same for watching online horror content, like locks 58 or Walten Files or Mandela Catalogue. A lot of those have elements that wouldn’t make sense in the real world but it’s not the real world, it a fictional one with horror and paranormal elements, you have to suspend your belief to enjoy it

If you wanted high budget stuff, then don’t want indie content online, and certainly do not complain about it that’s so stupid

I’m not saying it’s perfect but like if your complaint that Ranboo ( who funded his passion project on it own like any other artist typically does) doesn’t have the large budget to create something you’d find in the movies, I have to wonder if you respect indie creators at all

I also wonder if we watched the same thing and I midly get concerned with the way we consume media online a little

#mars rambles #mars rants #gen loss #generation loss #Ranboo #charlie slimecicle #genloss sneeg #sneegsnag #gl!slimecicle #gl!ranboo #genuinely tho it was the stupidest thing I’ve ever read #if you can’t suspend your belief because it isn’t a movie or book then I think you lack some critical thinking skills

I would just like to go on record and say that there was no other way Generation Nord could've ended. This is the way it always should have and was going to be. Is it really a Sam oneshot if nothing goes horribly wrong

#critical role #cr spoilers #generation nord #anyways this was the stupidest thing I've ever watched and i had a fantastic time

[zarnzarn]

how on earth do i stop the urge to somehow hammer into 'helluva critical' peoples heads that hb and hh is not representation for you its representation for me

#just WATCH SOMETHING ELSE #and half the time 'helluva critical' is just 'i dont like where they went with this character whose backstory i made in my head' #or something like 'this is unhealthy rep' or whatever #like... no its rep of unhealthy shit. for US THE TRAUMATIZED QUEER ASSHOLES. its our mistakes and stories. #spindlehorse is not about the morality of characters they are trying to tell a story #idk man it just makes me so sad to see all these haters being so loud about the stupidest things when it means so much to other people & me #helluva boss

Just saw someone call Kenobi “evil” for not helping Reva. Okay. Tell me that you don’t understand Star Wars without telling me that you don’t understand Star Wars.

#to put the facists dark side users over a character who has been shown again and again to sacrifice his own well-being for other is a choice #I’m literally so absolutely fucking sick and tired of seeing people bash the kenobi show for the stupidest things #valid criticisms I get #but if you truly don’t like the show #or kenobi himself for that matter #then maybe dont fucking watch it???? #dumbass Star Wars stans do not interact #I’m sick of y’all #Star Wars #obi wan kenobi #kenobi

Actually I've decided I'm sick of being cis people's only irl experience with genderqueer/nonbinary people

#stella speaks #personal #i swear the well-meaning ignorant stuff they say is almost more hurtful than actual malicious transphobia #i've accepted that there are people in my life i can never come out to #but my friends who love and support me and then say such casually transphobic stuff because they just don't know better? #that cuts deep #and i can't even be mad about it because i know they're not saying it from a place of malice #they never had to confront the gender binary until me and it's so so obvious with the stuff they say #they say they're with me 100% and then say the stupidest thing i've ever heard cause they're still using a binary mindset #and i get it. it's hard to look at the world through someone else's lens #and they don't have to think about any of it unless they're talking to me #but i'm tired of being the recipient of all their thoughtless comments #i just wish they could hear themselves sometimes #like. repeat that sentence to yourself. and then apply some critical thinking #where did that thought come from? who taught you that concept? can you think of any cases in which maybe that concept doesn't apply? #they're decent with binary trans peoplw (kind of) #i guess it's easier for them to wrap their heads around going fully from one to fully the other #but for people like me who exist somewhere outside that.... suddenly it's rocket science or something

people really just find anything to be pissed about these days huh........because sincerely, what the actual fuck are y'all going on about??? all this moral uproar and vitriol for a silly old-ass boyband song????? please stop it forever <3

#i'm mad at ppl 🙃 having zero critical thinking skills 🙃 and ''cancelling'' over the stupidest things 🙃🙃🙃 #i'm all for supporting the right causes but please for the love of god pour your activism into something actually conducive #instead of getting the pointless pisstake out of a goddamn song that's not that deep and has zero malicious intent whatsoever #idk man but maybe—just maybe!—some words can have multiple connotations and also rhythmic repetition is a style used in music??? #and maybe things don't always have to root themselves in the offensive side and they are just. what they are? like isn't that crazy????? #maybe you won't get internet brownie points but it doesn't make you a bad person i promise!!! there are worse things to be concerned about! #tw*tter is a fucking hellhole like damn what kinda premium carbon monoxide are they huffing there but lord get it away from us #nope. not having any of it. i'm just gonna shut up and calm down b4 i say Worse Things and contact their terminal brand of brainrot #will delete and get back. i hope everyone is doing alright. if youre mad about paralyzed then i'm sorry for your loss love and peace :) #feel free to block me or whatever for this but i said what i said. lets be civil and not regressive in the pursuit of fairness shall we? #i never want to be a discourse blog (ew) or a place fostering hate and negativity but this is just frankly too ridiculous to not talk about #btr #big time rush #paralyzed #do pretty girl don't speak #will delete

today i had the surreal experience of bonding with my mom over the fact that we are both inheriting the same personality flaws as our respective mothers.

as in she is becoming more like her mom in the worst ways and i am becoming more like her in the exact same ways. is the family curse.

on the one hand, silly, right, but on the other hand i did kind of appreciate that i am just like the other women in my family.

#our family has a problem with big fragile egos #and being too succeptible and easily bothered by the stupidest things #we are not a family that deals well with criticism or with losing

I think it’s also important to note that Jessica is also in her EARLY 30’s. And was probably wayyy younger when the list was posted. I’ve seen tonsss of adults on TikTok still raving about their favorite fanfictions in their 20’s/30’s. Idk, I can kind of see why people called her out on this but at the same time the fandom was also very wild in the early years with their own fanfics. I’ve read worse from within the community itself.

you post the most atrociously down bad artwork of laurance with his titties out? nobody bats an eye. but when you mention you write smut fanfics privately on your own blog? society goes wiiiiild.

age isn't really a factor here for me because regardless she's still allowed to write smut fanfiction of the legal characters she made! she made them!!!! i don't grasp how anyone could call it gross or treat it as debauchery when it's reaaaaaaally not.

#just >:| there's lots to critique about jess but it opens the floodgates for the stupidest criticism #there's so much entitlement towards her actual creations that she's not allowed to do certain things #and it's annoying to watch just as someone who Likes Making Things and would be upset if anyone said these things to me #( 💌 ) ⸻ frills answers

literally the only time I have consistently used twitter was during the tubocalypse when I used to doomscroll the tubbo indirects. but. I'm healed now. definitely.

#it was just people on his back for absolutely everything because they slready didnt like him #and then casual ''fans'' always add fuel to the fire #because they just *must* show how morally high they are because they can criticize their own ccs #even if it was the stupidest thing he said offhandedly

[jinouchibhue]

I really like YouTube movie critics but sometimes they're really fucking stupid.

"Why does this dude even have a kid?"

"Why does the aunt even want her?"

"Why are they showing the same dream happening over and over?"

"What are the pills for?"

And like clever ways of Storytelling is smart and big brain when it's movies they like but the dumbest thing ever when it's movies they don't. like can you at least try to be objective Jesus.

#god like if you're going to be an asshole about it at least pay attention #fuck #was very disappointed in Alex Myers video #yms i expect it from but dang #fnaf #also no one give me shit about liking CinemaSins their whole thing is that it's stupid but it bothers me when it's actual critics who #claim to like creativity and film. #like there are actual criticism you can say about the movie but they choose the stupidest things or things that are actually explained #to be superior over

FEARNE THAT'S MY FAVORITE JOKE

I MIGHT HAVE TO SAY SOMETHING TO THE PERSON WHO ADDED DUMB SHIT TO MY POST

#ITS NOT EVEN LIKE AN IMPORTANT THING BUT ITS ANNOYING ME TO NO END THEY COULD HAVE JUST SAID IN THE RAGS BUT THEY ADDED IT #TO A FUCKING FICLET!!!! AND IT WAS CRITICISM OF THE STUPIDEST FUCKING THING #BUT NOW I FEEL LIKE IM VIBRATING OUT OF MY SKIN CUZ IT WAS SOOOOOOO DUMB #mine
