One of the funniest things I've seen someone say is "I hate when people try to FORCE POLITICS into HISTORICAL HETALIA" girl I have really bad news for you

#I'm sorry but history + politics aren't these 2 completely separate things #Just like how philosophy + politics aren't two completely separate things etc #And accusing people of “forcing” politics down historical hetalia's throat or something is just nonsensical #People who say this usually don't have an issue with politics being discussed in historical hetalia #They only have an issue with it when it makes their blorbo look bad lmao #Lol #Again I just wanted to highlight how stupid it is to say something like that #Like HISTORICAL hetalia specifically girl yeah maybe there will be talks of politics 💀💀💀 #If it was like. General hetalia ok I'd maybe get it #BUT HISTORICAL HETALIA ? #Sorry I'm too humanities brained for this nonsense

My post-canon fic series On the fliⓟⓢⓘde of a meteor covers what I think would happen from the crew's senior year of high school until about 3 years afterwards.

Then there's gonna be a timeskip to an epilogue where they're all thirty. And this is the relationship chart at that 30 year mark!

Probably going to have to click on this one to read it lol, but the fewer the dashes on the lines the stronger the relationship.

Anyways, back to writing, now that I'm not crashing Google Docs with the sheer amount of fic I've crammed into one document lol...

#nopsi nonsense #nopsi fic #nopsi graphics #I guess we can also call this #art by nopsi #saiki k #sknpn #tdlosk #yeah I know I'm insane for this one. anyways feel free to ask me questions about it if you want. love talking about ships!

Something I keep seeing when I speak to others about MTMTE Megatron is basically the idea that he's going on a personal journey to become a better person, that the point isn't for him to be "redeemed" but for him to get a chance to do good and die as a person he can live with again. That MTMTE presents a unique take on this because being away from Cybertron gives Megatron a chance to be a person rather than a political figure and this is how it gives him more depth as a character. Or just generally pointing out in a narrative sense that Megatron being in MTMTE limits his story options so of course his story is going to be more focused on a personal journey than on politics of him dealing with the Decepticons/Earth/etc and that just because JRO made a choice to take that path with Megatron doesn't mean that it's inherently bad.

And I'm just, mmm like I understand all of those points and acknowledge that they all contributed to the MTMTE Megatron we got. I even think that without JRO writing Megatron we wouldn't have had his lore be as fleshed out and 3D as it ended up becoming.

(Post starts out as a sort of meta analysis or at least me giving a reasoned explanation for my interpretation of the story, ends up being petty bitching in the last 1-2 paragraphs)

I just..... I just personally don't agree with the "he's becoming a better person by getting a chance to relax and experience happiness and trust after a life of trauma" as being the best choice for his character? Because the problem is that maybe if he were a random Decepticon foot soldier that would be appropriate, but he was literally the leader of the Decepticons that made them Like That and has political/cultural/societal responsibility for why things are the way they are? To be completely frank, I don't care about him going on a personal journey for self-peace, I think that he should become a better person by helping to un-fuck all the things he actually screwed up???

Like idc about the debate of whether he can be "redeemed" or if he should've been killed/imprisoned/etc at the ending. It just comes down to the fact that for me personally, I feel that since Megatron's wrongdoings were at a social level, him "being a better person" would've been better shown by him engaging with those people who he wronged instead of just going on a frigging personal journey for his legacy and self-peace???

Especially since in other series (exRID, possibly Windblade) we literally got plots like "the neutrals hate Autobots but they hate Decepticons even more" and "the Decepticons have been taken over by Galvatron and are now invading earth 2 electric boogaloo" and "yeah the Decepticons are literally living in slums because people hate them so much and won't give them any work." It just leaves me wondering why in the hell people are like, "oh Megatron got to be happy and have a chance to be a normal person." I don't want him to be normal! I want him to repay his debts to the people he actually wronged! Like if you want to cast Megatron as a hero of the people so badly (which so many of his stans do as if he actually cared about the Cons) then how do you reconcile the fact that Megatron just fucked off and left the Decepticons to suffer on Cybertron? Including some of them attacking during his trial and getting killed and Megatron is basically like "sorry, I'm not coming with you and this isn't going to work." And then Megatron complains about "toxic Decepticon loyalty" as if he didn't literally make them that way? Like I get that MTMTE Megatron is still an asshole but if you've read something besides MTMTE and know what the Decepticons are going through, it just ends up being really grating.

I just don't see Megatron as being a particularly good hero or having a particularly fulfilling story if he's completely isolated from all the bad things he did on Cybertron/the way the Decepticons are suffering until LL#25 where it's like "ah damn I'm going to trial now, well this is what I deserve so it's fine." Why could we not have seen something like Megatron trying to deradicalize the Decepticons or change their public image so they could integrate into normal Cybertron again? They were living in SLUMS and getting gunned down by Starscream's badgeless enforcers!

The best we got was the Functionist Universe but like.... I'm sorry, but JRO inventing a whole alternate universe for Megatron to save doesn't do jack shit to save or fix the people he left behind in this one. It was especially grating to read because JRO literally wrote in someone saying "you saved billions of lives from the Functionists" as if he was trying really hard to show how good Megatron is because he saved people (and also if not for Megatron existing Cybertron would be even worse and half of your faves would be enslaved or dead, also the Functionist Council was going to genocide organics too so technically they're WORSE than Megatron since they hate organics AND want to enslave their own race).

I read Barber's, JRO's, and MScott's series concurrently using the omnibus + a release order list for phase 3, and after all that I'm kind of puzzled why the fandom seems to ardently love MTMTE Megatron and think he's so well written but then also shit on Optimus for things that he did during the same points in the story? Because, and I know this is a blazing hot take, I honestly think that Optimus makes a better hero of his story than Megatron does for his, and Optimus' personal journey combines his personal and political identities into a narrative that's a lot more gruelling and questioning of his goodness than we got for Megatron in MTMTE. Which is fucking saying something considering Megatron committed crimes against sapient species and Optimus is the guy who tried to stop him from doing that and has always been pro-equal rights for all beings. But people pretty much just cherrypick things like Optimus annexing Earth or beating up Prowl and go "he's bad" and I'm like no??? IDW OP isn't a bad person or a bad character??? It's just that unlike MTMTE Megatron he's placed in a narrative that actually suits the nature of his actions and has themes that match. To the point that IMO sometimes Barber's narrative shits on Optimus excessively or paints him mainly in the most unflattering ways.

But like. It's just funny to me because Optimus spent his entire part of the story doing things like trying to stop Earth from being invaded/colonized yet again. Grappling with his identity as Prime and dealing with the fact that people literally worship him vs. the fact that his upbringing made him see the Primacy as nothing more than a facade of authority/leadership. Having people get mad at him for prioritizing politics over friendship/relationships with other people. Even getting shit on for being a cop a decent amount so people can STFU about IDW OP being "copaganda" or "not held responsible for his actions". The problems that Optimus dealt with were personal because they had to do with his self-doubt, culpability for the war as a leader of one of the armies, distance from his soldiers, etc. But all of these are also POLITICAL struggles. Because Optimus gave up on the chance to just be a normal person having personal struggles when he chose to become a LEADER, which also means that he's held to extremely high standards that he regularly fails at in the eyes of others.

That's why, to me, MTMTE Megatron falls flat in comparison and really as a "hero" or heel-face character in general? Because he also made a decision to be a leader, and IMO once you do things like become the commander of an army and start your own galactic empire, you lose the right to prioritize your personal problems and instead are obligated by the power you've chosen to wield to focus on your POLITICAL problems. If Megatron's power, influence, and crimes are of a social-political nature, then his heel-face turn arc and ways of showing that he's a better person/helping to heal what little damage he possibly can should have been shown with actions that help on a social-political LEVEL. That's why I'm not particularly impressed with his character arc and feel as if it was overhyped by other people in this fandom: sure, the extra character depth and emotion is nice, but I'm not really going to see him as extraordinary or even particularly good when the extent of him "becoming a better person" happens entirely on a random road trip to fuck-off nowhere. Especially not when the ending of LL tried to sell me a "they lived happily ever after" ending while basically leaving the freaking MUTINY as just Rodimus going "oh it's okay you're forgiven, we're all together again" and I guess everyone was fine with Megatron and wanted to spend an eternity on a ship with him just because Getaway died.

This is why I like (the concept/themes of) exRID/OP and the way Optimus' character arc was handled a lot more. Because for Optimus, the personal and the political were as one. He was held accountable for his actions towards others and the disruptive effects they had on a social level, sometimes to a ridiculous extent (the fucking "oh Megatron is an Autobot so now that makes the Autobots colonizers" plot and that stupid colonist screaming about how Optimus is "literally fascist" my beloathed). Even his very personal issues like his relationship with Zeta were still cast in a wider lens of, yeah this is a personal struggle that Orion faced, but he was still part of a Society TM and his actions were sometimes ill-informed or harmful to others. Even if I had a lot of problems with the way Optimus' story was written by Barber (plot holes, little meaningful character interaction, forced conflicts), at least the BASELINE of it was way better than Megatron's in MTMTE. Especially since Optimus' struggle was explictly about things like struggling with responsibility and how he feels he HAS to intervene in political affairs because has to save people/make up for his past mistakes. That's something that a good leader/good person actually does, so I found Optimus to be a better hero (even if his actions weren't all "good") because he was trying to be a good person by actually getting involved with Cybertron/Earth and subjecting himself to something he hates (leadership, war) and dealing with a shitload of criticism instead of just going on a fuckin "personal journey" lksdlkfsd.

Which just makes me extra salty that people hold up MTMTE Megatron as the pinnacle of Megatrons and literally the best Transformers writing evar! while turning up their nose and ignoring or outright despising IDW Optimus. Like okay. I guess since Megatron got handled with silk gloves on while Optimus got put through the wringer of being shit on by every other person in the story, it's easier for you to pretend that Megatron is a poor uwu boy who just needs friendship and love while Optimus is literally the worst bastard to ever exist. Or maybe it's just that since Optimus' story involves him sometimes fucking up, being criticized, or making things worse, that makes him morally bad. As opposed to Megatron who disrupted a lot of other characters' stories in MTMTE, had to have an entire alternate universe invented so that he could "save lives," and got to sail off on a quantum Lost Light happily ever after, so since he's happy and the story says he saved people that means he's a good hero.

#squiggposting #it started out sort of analytical but ended up bitchy #i also feel like for some reason my understanding of what a redemption arc is is different from others? #when i talk to people about it they keep saying 'well M can't make up for what he did' #and i'm like. no that's not what i mean by redemption arc #to me redemption arc literally just means 'a character goes from bad to good over the course of a story' #whether they're forgiven or if they can 'make up for it' objectively is irrelevant like #redemption arc is literally a common label used for the general trope so idk where this confusion is coming from? #also hot take when i say a character should be redeemed i'm literally not talking about wether they're forgiven or pardoned in universe #i just mean. as a reader. do i read their story arc and see them go from bad to good and progress in meaningful ways #do they do something. anything. to address or apologize or fix what they did #is there some sort of symbolic or literal sacrifice or act of service or any Good Thing even if it's only one single moment #then to me they've been redeemed in a narrative sense. it has nothing to do with whether they can literally compensate for hteir crimes #anyways. the tldr of this is that i don't hate mt/mte at all and i also don't hate idw M. i love them in fact #it's just i feel like i was severely let down by how much this fandom hyped and continues to hype mt/mte meg #(peg/gy the pirate spongebob meme voice) that's it? that's the M redemption arc? #that's just a guy going on a space road trip and being emo #mfs tried to tell me it was one of the best tf stories ever written and i'm like. yeah thanks but no #worse still ppl came out of m/tmte going 'actually M was right about everything' #and i'm like. shit take and you are spreading this nonsense everywhere including shitting on my faves w your bad takes #mfs wanna call M a hero of the ppl who at least cared about the cons when he literally left them for broke on cybertron #i don't think idw M had a good heel-face turn arc bc he didn't really like do anything meaningful in the wider scope of things #what if idw M achieved inner peace by protecting the cons and making sure they had rights post war. how about that #i mean for various reasons the story would've been more complicated than that due to editorial and company mandate bullshit #i just feel as if talking about the story narrative itself IDW M's redemption arc is far from remarkable #except for the fact that JRO dared to do it at all perhaps #(vine voice) that's my OPINION!!!!!

cas is so endearing to me. he's seen so much, learnt about human turmoil up close and personal, vip seats and all, first hand experience try it out today. and still. yeah, of course he gets the balance of the pain and the pleasure. obviously. but beyond that, the little things he does, the way he gets happy when he does something inherently human, excited when he gets a joke, makes a reference. and then there's human cas, who actually has to do all the things, no take backs. yeah he has opinions, yeah he finds it difficult. but at the end of the day, he's okay. at the end of the day he gets it. at the end of the day, the way cas treats humanity is the way i wish i could treat my own mortality. and i could use a different word, i could say 'my own life' or whatnot, but i think 'morality' does have a bit of an undertone to it that really drives home the point of this whole thing.

how to go from a one-shot/conversation spawned from thinking too much about an unseen father to more than a dozen fic ideas and an overarching narrative about family heritage (and the generational trauma that comes with it), the importance of communication, and how all lives touch other lives to create something anew and alive in one easy step

#pokemon #sir aaron #blood curse of sir aaron #no seriously this was supposed to be a one-shot with maybe ONE sequel. now there's 4 sequels and at least 7 directly related side stories #and three (3) fics that are more or less gonna serve as prequels/background for all my canons at this point when riley's involved #it was also only supposed to be one and then i had Ideas and did not stop them. #(benefit of setting things during legends arceus and promptly ignoring the actual protag) #i've only had the core idea rolling around my brain for 6 months and there's this many fics. prequel 1 came before but the others are newer #at least i'm not trying to write an entire game plot this time unlike my other big pokemon project #so much of the conflict could've been avoided with better communication. not all of it mind you but the big issues? yeah #at the very least they could've been handled a LOT sooner #<- series name for all this nonsense in case i wind up talking about it more here. will probably post links here once more is written #i've got a scattered 20k worth of it so far of actual fic and over 10k worth of notes. 2k of those notes are for a single episode rewrite #i know that might not sound like a lot to some people but only the first main fic is done. the third one is arceus chronicles. #im making. choices. that's for sure. and writing so much aura lore you have no idea #i might need to make a family tree soon

sudden itch to write a rare pair fic thats not Percy related

but like

the last time I did that it ended up becoming my top fic and lead to me deciding that you know... actually I hate that ship just out of spite so i'm not sure how good of an idea it is

maybe if i try like femslash or something super super rare with side characters or something

#using tumblr as a diary again #like is it healthy to feel that way? #no it's probably not but knowing that hasn't made the feeling go away in the months sense i posted it lol #like multiple people have asked for more for it but I'm ngl I'm likely never touching that ship again much less the fic itself #like if i even did decide to it would probably just be Percy and Viktor meeting #the whole reason it even became the ship it did was because I couldn't figure out how to write Viktor #But i don't think that's what people mean when they say they want more of it but maybe id be less annoyed if I did add a Percy/Viktor chapt #I feel like this is what those people mean when they talk about posting art you put your all into vs a doodle #because while i spent a hell of a long time procrastinating writing it i was never like actually happy with it #I just kinda wrote and posted it because I was running out of time and wanted to be done with it #which I think is part of why I find it annoying that it has like double the kudo's of everything else but it makes sense that it does #like it's a garbage fic yeah but its the main character and a fan favorite so ofc its going to get more attention #especially in comparison to the niche nonsense I make that I like more #will I ever delete it No I'm fire believer in not deleting things I've made because ive learned in my life i always regret it so #I just have to get better at writing so I can knock it off its horse >:) #or just keep adding extra chapters to Raspberry Muffin until it surpasses it lol #they only have a difference of 64 at the moment so its not impossible #I know im going to see this again in a few years and be so confused on why it bothered me so much i just know it lol

how the fuck are you supposed to save things for therapy another day instead of lashing out at people during conversation. by then i'll feel like an emotionless dead corpse when right now i feel like there's Gods pulling on my arteries like fishing line with my skin being what's caught on the thousand hooks

#luptxt #sorry for the nonsensical posts and comments lately i'm currently fucking psychotic and only posting 10% of what is in my mind #seriously though this has always struck me as far more difficult than reasonable because #most of me has that “everyone talking is an adult so you can have a normal adult convo and talk about things” #(subtext “why would you need to wait until x days later and try have the conversation with some doctor who isn't even The person”) #and then some of me is “my fury is divine and i can see the cracks in the air that everyone is afraid to fall in. i have to tell them what #they can't see and if they don't listen to me then it's proof the air knows i'm hiding from its trap and my only option is to attack #everything i can just to try hold on through this wave of it trying to drag me under. why can't they see the lights and why can't they feel #the disgusting marking fire that the air is sending under my skin like needles. why can't they see or help that and why won't they listen“ #and then finally i'm like okay yeah a medical professional is kind of needed here probably

i think I remember you once pointed out that cheating on your osg is like the one and only thing that can get fandom to dislike a white male woobie character because they’ll forgive anything including abusing your osg but they draw the line at cheating and idk the daemon/nettles discourse reminded me of this like people will forgive daemon murdering rhea and strangling rhaenyra but they’re like oh no don’t make him cheat. although with him strangling rhaenyra I did see a lot of oh he would never do that to her, (which like he’s been grooming her since she was a child what are you on about?) but I still think people are more forgiving of that than the cheating

this ask is really well-timed because recently I've been thinking about one of the reasons this attitude REALLY irks me.

see, I'm more than fine with considering cheating unforgivable. it is an awful, awful thing to do to someone who thinks of you as a partner. it's obviously a targeted attack on their self-esteem and will impair their ability to trust, as unfair as that fucking is (they are NOT the ones that should feel shame in this scenario!). it's also a huge violation of consent. say you've been married for ten years. they've cheated on you for half of those. in the meantime, have you bought a house with this person? (and would you have chosen to, if you'd found out they slept with someone else?) have you had children with this person (and would you have chosen to, if... you get the gist). and part of that violation of consent involves the fact that, by doing this, they're even recklessly risking their partner's physical health (maybe it's just me, but I don't trust people like this to be the most trustworthy when it comes to safe sex, especially with a long-term affair).

but... these are not the reasons behind fandom's typically harder stance against infidelity. instead, they get Big Mad because *checks notes* they think it makes their guy look baaaaaaad, and flaky and shallow and inconsistent and and and.

give me a fucking break.

#and of course you get cases like arrow. where people saw oliver cheating and instead of thinking #''dear fuck what a SCUMBAG who DOES THAT?? and with her SISTER??'' #nope. for them this meant laurel was *lesser*. that she didn't deserve to be the female lead/love interest #that this reflected poorly on HER and her ALONE #*sighs* #i'm feeling bitter about that show/fandom again #i wasn't even that invested but i did love original laurel to pieces lol. so. yeah #talking to the void #my thoughts #fandom nonsense #bitter lau tag

BBC Les Misérables ep 4

you know, bbc!Javert is so... I think he'd be very compelling for fanfic writing (because you can just come up with reasons that are just not in the show, not explicitly at least anyway)

the thing is, he was happy in Toulon, he was happy in Montreuil-sur-Mer - he seemed to really enjoy his "gotta uncover this fake mayor" days, but once he sent Valjean to prison, his own descent seemed to have started

I said this after watching ep 2:

I also think that Fantine’s arrest was the beginning of “Javert is starting to crack” because “you astonish me” felt genuine, as if he couldn’t grasp his mind around Valjean

and I truly believe that it's still true. (He arrested him, but he was also genuinely astonished by him, but he never actually processed it.)

In Paris, he's just not happy. He has everything, he's respected, he has a nice flat, he's doing so good at his job - but none of it means anything to him because "Jean Valjean is still free" (which is most likely just an excuse he is using to hide bigger issues, but those are just not explicitly explored in the show) - Jean Valjean escaped from the prison, and he, Javert, failed to catch him in Paris, and it weights on him

He keeps feeling hollow and is descending into lonely depression (see the montage), and he feels that this hollowness will be fixed if he catches Valjean and puts him back into chains.

(and then Valjean is gonna be kind to him once)

yeah, anyway, this is just me saying my first impressions (sure, I could wait until I watch the whole show but where’s the fun in that?) there's no one i can talk to about it so i need to throw it into the void lol

#leni's nonsense #i really enjoy valjean in this series as well. he's very broken #but so is javert but both are broken in different ways #wanted to talk about valjean too but it's too late #yeah anyway i enjoy the series for what it is #i guess once i'm done i'll have to watch just valjean/javert scenes without the distractions to get a better grasp of javert #when i only watched javert's scenes in lm2000 it also made me realize some things that i missed while watching the show in full #anyway i need to make more progress with the book #les miserables bbc #les miserables #javert #valvert #(for archiving purposes)

that question is sparked by me seeing a very obnoxious (i.e. eyestrain to the point of inducing a headache) dni banner that lists "bi lesbians" on it and I look at the person's carrd and they have "anti-neopronoun/xenogender/mogai" listed right underneath "bi lesbians/lesboys/etc and supporters"

and i am just. feeling a little crazy. because i genuinely do not understand this fsdjkl i feel like... if you are supportive of xenogenders then you should understand gender is complex and doesn't line up nicely with sexuality labels sometimes so you have to twist things to make them fit right for you and your internal experience... this is why we have cool labels like cloudgender and stargender and all that fun stuff!! these labels are cool! they are good! so why suddenly are we saying that lesbians and gays who do not fit the traditional "i am solely a woman attracted solely to other only-ever-women" box are wrong and bad ?

i dont want to be saying horrible things bc im misunderstanding or straight up not seeing the issue though, so genuinely if anyone has insight please tell me because im so beyond confused at this point

#also isn't gay considered an umbrella term at this point? i.e. the gay community (the queer community)? #like it has a meaning yeah but we also use it as an umbrella term in wider culture i thought... maybe i am misunderstanding that though #so im just ... not sure what the whole ''mspec gay'' being bad is about #this is hurting my head im rly trying to figure out what ppls issues are with this #and i just. i think maybe its the whole ''words have meaning! we can't muddy the waters!'' which is totally fair #i'm not sure what the answer is #but also i think maybe even if ppl ID as bi lesbians... i think everyone in the wider world still understands lesbian to mean wlw #and i really doubt that'll change anytime soon. so i don't think that its necessarily an issue? #am i talking nonsense right now? sticking my foot in my mouth? im just very confused fdsjkl im rly trying to figure this out #i've been sitting watching it all for the past few months and i cannot wrap my head around it so ... i come hat in hand to ask here LOL #idk maybe i just shouldnt ask questions but i really want to understand things fsgjkl and i've been trying to figure it out on my own #and i'm getting absolutely nowhere so dsgjkl i figure its okay to reach out to a community to ask instead of driving myself crazy alone #pippen needs 2nd breakfast

I guess the kittehs have been good company. Leeloo has been a typical kitten aka a terror. (^・ω・^ )

As much as I don't want my parents to interfere in my business I do want my mom to ask her bestie, WTF, because I did an estimate for her and I have heard back and I need money like now. Mom said no, and rightfully so, but still, lol.（’-’*)

Speaking of parents, Mom asked me to come hang out at their old people gratitude dinner today. Umm, yeah no thanks. Once was enough. I'm fine hanging out with myself.٩(•̤̀ᵕ•̤́๑)ᵒᵏᵎᵎᵎᵎ

Seriously the worst part of being a small business person is worrying about money. We hates it.( •̀ω•́ )σ

And even though he's a jerk about it, Dad is helping me get tires on my car. That's one good thing, he'll always keep the car up. Though he still calls it "his" car. s(・｀ヘ´・;)ゞ

Bonus: Happy End of Daylight Saving Time weekend! Tonight most of the USA imitates Cher and turns back time, the Standard clock. WHEEEE. (not fun. We hates the dark) (´～`)

𝐂𝐋𝐕. Good morning. As you may see not even a night's sleep is enough to erase the brainworms I have for what I was on last night about Khaenri'ah and I want to dig a little deeper about the plausibility of causing even more unrest in the society when the decision of using abyssal energy all of a sudden was made when... well, since always the energy used was the elemental one that was crystallized in blocks from the Ley Lines. My main reasoning for this is, it's known the harm that something like Eleazar caused, right? As part of the Forbidden Knowledge and how Tighnari described it as a consequence of the darkness that comes from deep within the earth on the surface. Imagine what it must've been like to live somewhere where no plants or animals can live naturally due to the hostile and toxic environment due to the proximity to the Abyss, including illnesses as a normal thing down there (who knows if its effects differed between pure-blooded and those who aren't). So thinking about this alone, I wouldn't be surprised if this change would cause an uproar in the society to change things with a logic like: you know about all the struggles we endure because of the Abyss, and now you would weaponize it as an energetic resource?

since the ofmd s2 trailer released yesterday, i've already seen two people get anons "callling them out" for liking izzy hands as a character. brings me back to when someone called me a racist for making a character playlist for him

#some people are fucking insane #enjoying a character doesn't mean you agree with everything about the character #and the racialized aspect is especially interesting like... #is there a racist root for izzy expecting ed to be violent and masculine and perform in such a way? #yeah i do think that could be a part of it. but izzy thinks that ALL pirates need to be violent and masculine #and enjoying a character who is an asshole is completely normal #anyway. it's crazy to see people waste their breath... for what? performative activism? #tree talks #i'm not tagging this with the show i'm not inviting more of that nonsense lol.
