#i know this is an unpopular opinion

[upagainstthesunset]

Im sorry guys but i slept well for once and naturally woke up early feeling good, so i come on here to enjoy the fun little things everyone posts and what do i find?

Literally six separate people complaining about batfam in fandom. I dont disagree, but day in day out half my dash is this. Its getting to the point where these kinds of posts are causing a more negative experience than the thing being complained about. Maybe consider how much youre complaining about the same one thing over and over again. And that youre the one perpetuating the topic of batfam superiority. Not a day goes by where i have the peace to not think about this bc someone is always bringing it back up.

Really unfortunate to feel the need to call this out bc every person i saw reblogging is a delight and i like all of you so, so much but like okay we get it. We get it and we agree already. Can we maybe at least reduce the amount this gets brought up? Just a little?

#i know this is an unpopular opinion #and ill probably delete later bc i dont want peoples feelings to be hurt #but damn dude can we have a day without talking about how other people are talking about batman?? #thanks for making my whole morning bat fandom wank and little else :( #katetakes

I hate it when people use "dear boy" in fanfics

Like I genuinely can't fucking get over it. "My dear"? Cute as fuck, affectionate, everything to me. "Dear"? Mildly less affectionate but still love it. "Good boy"? Crowley has a thing for praise, leave me alone, actually perfect. But "dear boy"? It's giving "old sport". Same for "my boy" most of the time. I know it's canonically used by Aziraphale in the book but to me it just isn't intimate in the way people want it to be. Especially in smut. I genuinely have to change it in my head to keep from closing the tab out of spite.

this is my yearly rant and one of my truly unpopular opinions is that i hate halloween with my entire heart and i cannot wait for the "spooky season" to be over

#no shade to people who love it #enjoy it #but i hate literally every single aspect of halloween #and i hate that my favorite time of year which is this early fall is always associated with skeletons and graveyards #i didn't like it before #but ever since the war started it physically makes me sick #bloody body parts and mass graves #not a thing that i associate with joy if you know what i mean #anyway #i know this is an unpopular opinion #and am very happy about people enjoying this time of year #it's just not for me

Shaoshang recollects LBY's words and actions then decides to catch feelings?

Also, the imbalance of power is not in their social status or power or influence.

It's that they're both at different stages of their lives. Comparably, Niaoniao has less world experience than a military man whose led battles most of his life, is a nominal part of royalty, and is feared by most of the noble classes. Even if he were on their social level - i.e. not an adopted son of an Emperor or his Dad was an ordinary farmer, someone like Ling Bu Yi would still have more power in the relationship than a very young girl.

#silly #love like the galaxy #CDramas #unequal relationship #older man younger woman #ling Bu Yi #cdrama #this is a romantic trope that is viewed as ideal #LBY is GIVING Shaoshang equality #and she is falling for that rather than the actual person #I know this is an unpopular opinion #Shaoshang is 15+ #LBY is only 21 but is so much more mature #this is a drama so all's well that ends well etc #in real life such a disparity in life experiences would convince the male that the younger woman is after marriage

anyway what a lovely day to remember that klaus could actually really get his shit together and be a trustworthy, reliable and sensible human being if given the right resources and incentives.

Why do people just talk about McLennon and Starrison?

These boys slept around more than most people ever have or will, and you think that was only in terms of girls? That with boys they just loved one other person?

I just don't understand the logic. How would their feelings for boys be any less complicated than for girls?

There probably weren't AS many boys, just because it was literally illegal, but you want to tell me that it was simple? That John and Paul ONLY loved each other? That George and Ringo ONLY had feelings for each other (because I do not subscribe to the "Ringo's straight because he just has that vibe' notion)

Come on.

There were lots of girls and lots of boys and it was all complicated.

McLennon and Lennison can coexist, it's not one or the other.

Same for McLennon and McStarr etc

Coexisting doesn't mean necessarily the same relationship, but the feelings were so much more complicated than just one pairing being in love but never doing anything about it.

#I know this is an unpopular opinion #not sure why #but I know it is #oh well #i'm tired #mclennon #starrison #lennison #mcstarr

I actually REALLY love mk11 especially how the women look

I just haven’t really gotten around to drawing much content from it yet

#the skarlet drawing is for my sister #she has a major obsession with skarlet and it’s kinda funny #she’s been drawing her nonstop for days #unpopular opinion? I’m not sure but mk11 kitana>> #I don’t know what it is about mk1 kitana but I can’t bring myself to like her the same way as the mk11 one #like don’t get me wrong she’s still good… but mk 11 kitana was a KAHN #mk11 #mortal kombat 11 #mortal kombat #kitana #skarlet #doodles #my art #forgot to add this but I think skarlet would love monster high dolls #just food for thought #I mean… am I WRONGGG?? #also I wanna draw her hanging out with sareena #scrawny lil goth women my beloveds

More things I hate about modern literature because today is a bad day and I need to be a dick online to feel better:

How much sex there is in everything

And again I am not a prude, erotica has existed for decades and it's okay but every popular YA or adventure book nowadays is a bad erotica with some low stakes adventure in the background

And somehow they are able to be both bad porn and bad adventure

And also people will promote those books as " yes the plot kinda sucks but there's good sex scenes"

The word Mary sue

The misuse of the word Mary sue

Any attempt to make a "LOTR inspired" book made by a man

Because usually the things that made LOTR good go just over the authors head and we end with basically a vin diesel movie set in the middle ages

This is not just about modern literature but books about or set in horrible moments for a oppressed minority(like holocaust or slavery) written by people who aren't part of said minority

Coleen hoover

She did for feminist literature what Seth MacFarlane did for adult animation

The harry Potter/Percy Jacksonification of children's literature

The magical choose one trope being taken to a magical world did irremediable damage to children's literature

The mean girl trope

Books set in fictional middle ages but the protagonist go to balls in fashion show modern runaway style dresses

You know the tacky Pinterest glittery showing shoulders back and leg

Those official arts of the same exactly white women and the same white guy in slightly different clothes with the same 2016 style eyebrows and the sharp jawline and the nothing expression

Characters being described as "golden skin" so depending if the author needs some representation points they can be interpreted as people of color but if no one says nothing they stay as just tan white

Comparing dark skin color to any food

How many authors try to make at the same time "this is brainless wish fulfilment fantasy about being desired by a hot dominating guy" and " this is a profound take about the horrors of abuse"

Usually by having the second love interest to abuse the protag

In the end the message that stays is any abuse is forgivable if the abuser is hot enough

The "I'm skinny but not hot super model skinny I am ugly skinny my bones show because of malnourishment"

"yet I don't feel any other effect of starvation like being weak and I can carry five times my body weight in whatever animal the author needs me to hunt in the beginning of the book because making me a farmer wouldn't be cool"

"I am ugly" cried the skinny girl with locks of auburn hair porcelain white skin and eyes of emerald green.

The jk Rowling stupid name school (she named the werewolf Wolfy mcwolf in Latin and people though it was smart now we have a girl who fights on a island named island and the archer who marries a fae named fae archer )

And again faes because fuck faes

Ppl going "waaahh unpopular opinion but Alice is kind of annoying and obnoxious and I don't think I'd like be her friend irl" is so funny to me bc like.

God forbid a cast of characters be multifaceted and have actual flaws and unpleasant aspects other than "grr angsty hero" and "whoops i'm so clumsy". Sometimes character dynamics and arcs need to be prioritized above "who would i personally be niceys with irl"

2. bro just WAIT until you hear about season 1 jon lol

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #season 1 jon was obnoxious and sometimes a straight up ASSHOLE and you were supposed to find him kinda grating!!! #yes alice IS a bit annoying and too much sometimes (esp in the first episodes) and i love that <3 #like. its p obvious that she uses the over the top-thing as a shield (to push ppl away/as a defense mechanism/to avoid being vulnerable) #we see her drop the act sometimes w ppl like teddy and sam who she actually feels comfortable around (and who know and understand her) #but like. she's stuck in a job she hates and is kind of afraid of (she KNOWS smth abt the horrors and is keeping her head down to survive) #(shes obviously afraid of sam going to far bc she KNOWS its dangerous) #so yes her act gets too much sometimes and yes sometimes she crosses the line into straight up mean (esp against gwen) #(but their dynamic is a whole other can of worms) #but like. i'm pretty sure its supposed to be seen that way. the audience isnt supposed to just find her kooky funny #the facade is supposed to be dismantled by the viewer etc etc #kind of like SEASON 1 JON the obnoxious bastard!!!!!!! #like. if you ever think alice is too mean towards gwen pls listen to s1 jon again and how he speaks abt martin?? #from a position as his boss no less? ngl i wanted to throttle him sometimes #you kinda forget abt it in the later seasons and if you only engage w fandom content. but like. go back and listen to the shit #he actually says. jesus christ man. i remember kinda hating him in the beginning #and to be clear i love jon! i think hes a great character! #and like. its almost as if his early season personality and facade was an important setup for his character development #and relationships with the other characters??? #but anyway 'alice is kind of annoying' is not an unpopular opinion its literally the FUCKING POINT #and both her and jon are my sweet baby angels <3 #alice dyer #jon sims #(and obviouslyyy you're still allowed to dislike a character ppl can have their own opinions etc etc etc. i just personally find it funny)

I know so many people want to see some jealous Eddie this season. But I really want to see some jealous Buck because it’ll be different and fun. We’ve had plenty of jealous and possessive Eddie moments throughout the seasons. I want to see Buck, who finally embraces his sexuality and realizes who he wants, to be a bit jealous. I think it’ll be good to see some healthy jealousy and possessiveness and who knows, might even turn Eddie on to see Buck like that.

#buddie #these are the things I think about on Sunday afternoon #ugh gimme jealous Buck please #especially Buck who knows who he wants and goes after him #unpopular opinion

Water 7 was like specifically engineered to hit on every single sensitive spot Usopp has and honestly he almost under-reacted with how nuts the circumstances were for the moment that he snapped:

1. They just came off a fight where Aokiji knocked them around like it was nothing, where he had this realization:

So he’s going in already feeling super inadequate, more than he usually does (which is a lot already).

2. Relatedly, up to this point fixing the Merry was his job because they didn’t have a shipwright yet. Her being unfixable probably felt, to him, like a personal failing because he was the one in charge of fixing her

3. The Merry was most like another crew member to him because he’s the one who worked on her most, AND he was the only one who saw her klabautermann at this point

4. The big elephant in the room here is that Kaya was the one who gave them Merry. So, you know, he’s attached to her most for this reason too

5. There’s also the fact that this probably hit on the very specific trauma of his mother’s death, because she also got sick enough that everyone deemed her unsavable.

6. On top of all that, it also hit on his trauma regarding his dad and abandonment: he doesn’t want to repeat that and feel like he abandoned a crew member who needed him.

7. Speaking of abandonment, seeing a situation where, in his mind, the crew leaves someone behind who is now deemed useless probably touched on a lot of his own fears about his place on his crew and own perceived usefulness

8. He had also just been brutally beaten twice on the same day and is pretty badly injured, compounding both feelings of usefulness and aligning him with the merry in his mind in terms of physical state.

9. He had also just lost the money they needed to fix the Merry, again compounding the feeling that he was useless AND he was responsible for the Merry not being fixable

10. He woke up to the crew, who had already processed the news, telling him about it AND that a decision had been made, which made him feel like it was a him vs them thing

There’s probably more I think but yes, it is completely unsurprising that he fell apart so spectacularly

#one piece #op #usopp #water 7 #speaks #honestly I KNOW he was self sabotaging and snapping here but #I kinda respect him standing up to Luffy for what he thought was right #Luffy needs to be challenged more often generally speaking #this is probably an unpopular opinion but I never liked the blind loyalty = good thing that one piece champions #I think the best people to have in a crew are the ones who challenge you 🤷‍♀️
