I think a lot of queer people, trans especially, would realise they're otherkin if they viewed it less as "I am literally X thing right now in my current form" and more as "I would be happier as X thing and more comfortable with my body than I am now"

#bea binkying #genuinely this was the biggest hurdle for me a couple years back #like I was fulyy a furry I had a bunny sona. #but there was that feeling of “oh but I don't feel like I'm an actual real life bunny” that put me off using the word therian #but then I realised. someone who wasn't otherkin at all wouldn't be sat there questioning if they'd be happier as something nonhuman- #-as if it was an actual possibility right #and I've been binkying SO hard ever since :)

Fandom Gripe #23: I know that fandom is in some deep denial about its treatment of female characters that are canonically involved with fan favorite m/m ships, but do y’all realize that when you disappear female characters from the narrative wholesale to push the idea that your canonically straight fav was “secretly gay all along!” you’re making several bad implications? That 1) bi men don’t exist, 2) bi men do exist, but those who have genuinely loved a woman before cannot genuinely love a man after that (therefore bi men don’t exist in practice), 3) women cannot inspire genuine love and devotion in men, therefore any relationship with a woman is “lesser” than the one they later have a man (see previous parenthesis), or 4) to acknowledge the existence of a lovable woman who isn’t a terrible person, where if a relationship previously existed, it did not end because of “incompatibility,” is enough to destabilize the present relationship between two queer men?

Because why is the tgcf fandom allergic to acknowledging that He Xuan had a whole ass fiancée that he loved? Why does no one ever seem to remember that the kidnappings and murders of He Xuan’s sister and fiancée were the final straws that sent him on his rampage, and he still keeps a shrine to them in the present-day of the story? Why is her entire existence and significance to He Xuan as a man, character, and to his character arc disappeared in favor of pushing Shi Qingxuan—the brother of the man responsible for his fiancée’s death—into that same role, as if to say that her impact on He Xuan is significant... just not when it's from her? Why does He Xuan’s life in fandom essentially begin not just after her death but because of it?

#tgcf #human gripes at fandom #anyways these are rhetorical questions because I already know the answer #i just absolutely hate it #why do y’all hate female characters so badly 😭 #especially when they ‘get in the way’ of m/m ships? #mxtx shows that woman more respect in the book than fandom does outside of it #and she didn’t even give that character a name! #simply embarrassing #i could have also talked about jgy here #but let’s be real: that man never loved qin su (or anyone) #so i did not want to include him when discussing people who are *actually* capable of unconditionally loving others #but anyways #mdzs fandom sure loves to either disappear qin su #or act as if she’s the one responsible for why their precious ‘meng yao’ can’t just hop into bed with his bros #you know? the one he killed and the one he used as an accomplice in his murder? those bros? that he so obviously loved with sincerity? #at least moreso than he could ever love a *woman* amiright? #(for legal purposes that last tag was a joke) #i also really hate the implication that he xuan had no life before shi wudu ruined it #that in fact shi wudu made his life 'better' by tying him to shi qingxuan #the romanticization of shi wudu's actions to make way for a ship is... a Choice

By the time cars were invented, Jonah Magnus was already well into the body hopping game, which raises the question: has he ever actually learn to drive? Did this man sit through driver’s ed? Or has he just been getting out of legal repercussions for his shit driving by telling the cops everything he knows about their deepest darkest secrets every time he gets pulled over?

#the magnus archives #tma #jonah magnus #elias bouchard #tma spoilers #au in which real elias is alive in there because Jonah needs someone who can tell him what the road signs mean #poor man is forced to spend the rest of his days as a literal backseat driver for a pseudo-immortal douchebag #perish the thought #I’m sure someone has already asked this question by now but I can’t stop thinking about it #some people have pointed out that he would ride the tube which makes sense too. #btw this post is 100% inspired by how much I used to fear for my LIFE any time i was in a car while my grandpa was driving #genuinely terrifying experience grandpa stop it please quit turning your entire body around to talk to me while I’m sitting in the back sea #why are you driving with one foot for the pedal the other foot for the brake one hand on the steering wheel and NO EYES ON THE ROAD

Why are Home built like hot

this is probably my favorite ask iv ever gotten-

I'm really not a villain enjoyer. I love anti-heroes and anti-villains. But I can't see fictional evil separate from real evil. As in not that enjoying dark fiction means you condone it, but that all fiction holds up some kind of mirror to the world as it is. Killing innocent people doesn't make you an iconic lesbian girlboss it just makes you part of the mundane and stultifying black rot of the universe.

"But characters struggling with honour and goodness and the egoism of being good are so boring." Cool well some of us actually struggle with that stuff on the daily because being a good person is complicated and harder than being an edgelord.

Sure you can use fiction to explore the darkness of human nature and learn empathy, but the world doesn't actually suffer from a deficit of empathy for powerful and privileged people who do heinous stuff. You could literally kill a thousand babies in broad daylight and they'll find a way to blame your childhood trauma for it as long as you're white, cisgender, abled and attractive, and you'll be their poor little meow meow by the end of the week. Don't act like you're advocating for Quasimodo when you're just making Elon Musk hot, smart and gay.

#this is one of the reasons why #although i would kill antis in real life if i could #i also don't trust anyone who identifies as 'pro-ship' #it's just an excuse to shut down legitimate ethical questions and engaging in honest self-reflective media consumption and critique #art doesn't exist in a vacuum #it's a flat impossibility for it not to inform nor be informed by real world politics and attitudes #because that's what it means to be created by human hands #we can't even make machine learning thats not just human bias fed into an algorithm #if the way we interact with art truly didn't influence anything then there would be no value in it #just because antis have weaponized those points in the most bad faith ways possible #doesn't mean you can ignore them in good faith #anyway fandom stans villains because society loves to defend and protect abusers #it's not because you get the chance to be free and empathetic and indulge in your darkness and what not #it's just people's normal levels of attachment to shitty people with an added layer of justification for it #this blog is for boring do-gooder enjoyers only #lol #knee of huss #fandom wank #media critique #pop culture #fandom discourse

Honestly we could REALLY get into the fact that a lot of the insanity in Acotar is an excellent exercise in why you can't really separate the art from the author.

Sjm's zionism is OBVIOUS in the text. The ic destabilize governments to the detriment of people they will never have to care for, steal artifacts from other countries, displace people, cause invasions, commit war crimes for 50 years "for the greater good" all while their own people are living under unchecked brutality and poverty.

They are rich megalomaniacs that care for no one but themselves and their own emotional and material satisfaction and they are PRAISED for it. In fact anyone who even remotely disagrees with the IC is almost always one of the villains in the story (Beron, Tamlin, etc) as if to condition the reader that asking questions that are critical of the IC puts you on the wrong side of the narrative morally.

All of that sounds REALLL familiar huh?

#and the funny thing is sjm brought this on herself #unlike most authors she creates a clear framework in the text of what the narrative considers morally right and morally wrong #and her characters are always in the side that is morally right in the books but is morally abhorrent in real life #you have NO CHOICE but to question the actual author atp #like if the ic were real they would be the gop #and i think its funny that a lot of the havoc they wreak is most centered on people that are poc or marginalized in the book #but im supposed to get behind it because its some white teenager having a girl boss colonial moment #i hate these novels #if sjm wanted to do this she should have straight up just made feyre and co villains #anti sjm #anti acotar #anti rhysand #anti feysand #anti ic #anti acomaf #anti sarah j maas #anti inner circle #anti acowar

The Little House books are actually great inspiration for worldbuilding, because their working class perspective reminds you to think about all the work that goes into getting the resources needed for daily life.

Where does the food come from? Who cooks it? Where does the fabric for clothes come from? Who spins it, weaves it, sews it? What do you use for heat? Light? Transportation? Can you get these resources yourself from the local landscape or do you buy them from somewhere else? What happens if something breaks or runs out?

Not all those details are needed for every story, but these books show how useful it can be to consider those details. And remind you that, if you tell it well enough, sometimes those details can be the story.

#little house #adventures in writing #i always say that little house was the bedrock of my interest in fantasy #so much worldbuilding! #i loved learning about a world different from my own! #and this thought brought to you by me thinking i need to do some worldbuilding on 'lily between worlds' #thinking about how i could use little house as inspiration in how they have civilization but also have to worry about a dangerous landscape #and dangerous animals #so that culture is good to a point but a real man/woman also has to have practical survival skills #and then i thought about the daily life considerations of little house #and my brain suddenly exploded with worldbuilding questions

saiki has absolutely no social media until aiura forces him to get it and makes all his accounts for him, and he just lets it happen and doesnt change it (except for taking out the "mikos bf<3" she put in every single bio)

so all his accounts look really dumb and the bios have things like "literally elsa from frozen" "number one twilight sparkle kinnie" "cringefail boyloser (but hot)" "im an inside cat"

location- "the magical land of equestria" "freddy fazbears pizzaria"

#bonus points if aiura POSTS for him too #but its just pics of the psykickers+suzumiya #she changes his discord status DAILY #do his friends realize miko put that stuff there or do they think hes just nerdy?? good question #both probably #they think he wouldve just changed it if he didnt like it #this DEFINITELY was not inspired by a real event that happened with a friend who reminds me a lot of saiki #saiki k #tdlosk #the disastrous life of saiki k. #saiki kusuo #aiura mikoto #meows post

Thinking about how last season Joel was so desperate to break Jimmy’s curse vs Martyn this season, who runs around and gaslights and lies and planned to/has thrown his allies to the wolves before. Something about Joel's loyalty vs Martyn's illusion of loyalty that people can fall for

#ren posting #And by people can fall for I also mean the fans. The fans fell for it lmao #A very interesting contrast between two of Jimmy allies #limited life #secret life #joel smallishbeans #jimmy solidarity #inthelittlewood #martyn inthelittlewood #solidarity gaming #smallishbeans #The real question is like. Would Jimmy fall for fake loyalty #Because he DOES have his naive moments but he ALSO knows martyn
