No media representation, of any group, will ever be perfect. No group is a monolith. No group has homogeneous experiences. There will always be someone in your demographic who disagrees with you about what "good representation" really is, there will always be someone who fits the stereotypical representation, there will always be growth and change in what is considered appropriate vs. offensive.
The quest for truly perfect representation is doomed to failure, and your energy is better put into uplifting the media you connect with and love, instead of trying to police the media you hate.
I think the best advice I ever got to stop myself from getting in my head over issues i was having with a partner/friend was “Are you deciding on ultimatums in your relationship without the other persons knowledge or consent? Are you having conversations in your head where the other party is a projection you supply the responses for? If so; you have done this person a huge disservice in not allowing them to answer on their own terms. You have done so much architecture around this problem in your mind that is impenetrable for anyone who was not there when it was being built.”
That shit really changed my life and honestly? I think made me a nicer person to be around.
Another dream comic. Had a dream where I was tied to a chair in a dark room and some hooded figures killed me after I begged for my life—but then I got caught in a time loop and so I kept trying to figure out what I could say to get them to not shoot me but they killed me no matter what I said. Started just shouting random stuff eventually.
