#shitty ramblings

[adjit]

I think we need to get more comfortable with the idea that sometimes shitty, racist, homophobic, bigoted people are still incredibly talented.

I feel like every time I see a post addressing someone’s shitty behavior the post also takes the time to mention that they’re not even good at [x] anyway. And that’s just not always true? Equating being good at a skill as being morally good is just not necessary. Someone can be a fantastic writer, can have a beautiful singing voice, can create breathtaking artwork, and still be a horrible person.

I know part of this is probably just the instinct to dislike everything about a person when you dislike them, but I also think this mindset leads to people defending creatives way past where they should, because if bad people create bad art, then if this person creates art that I like and resonates with me, then they can’t be a bad person!

And you know. That’s just not true. Those two things are simply completely unconnected and I think it’d be healthier if we all started disconnecting them in our heads.

#ramblings tag #like idk. I think it’s possible to feel distaste for someone’s stuff while acknowledging it’s objectively good #but sometimes people act like admitting there’s a single good thing about a person who’s been shitty is impossible #and like. no! people are multifaceted and can have many positives #those don’t change the fact that they’ve done shitty things

i’ve heard a lot of people say “don’t reach out to your friends first and see how many people will remain in your life. those are your true friends” and i get it. it sucks and it’s tiring constantly being the one to message first, to initiate hang outs but don’t take this so literally. some friendships require initiation. i have lost touch with so many people who genuinely cared about me and wanted me in their life because i stopped reaching out. it’s a hard pill to swallow but honestly some people just suck at it and it doesn’t mean they don’t love and value you. i’ve reconnected with some people over the past few months and it’s crazy how genuinely happy they are to see me and how engaged they are in the conversation. i just think sometimes we’re too harsh on each other & too quick to emphasize other peoples flaws and remove them from our lives but then we’ll all be alone and what’s the point of life then!!!!

#i ramble but idk how else to explain this #some ppl are just shitty at reaching out but they still love with their entire being #these belong to honeyy #reminders #gentle reminders #positivity #relationships #friendships #self care #5k #10k #15k #20k #25k #30k

Look I just think that if you’ve ever loved Star Trek, Like really loved it (not just had a passing interest or casually consumed it) then it’s gonna be a part of you forever. It injects a little whimsy in you. A little thoughtfulness and curiosity and wonder. I’ll watch Star Trek and every time I do I feel like a little kid staring up at the stars holding onto the grass. I’ll watch Star Trek and every time I’m sitting out sharing a sweater with my friend as we talk about Spock and the sun starts to set. I’ll watch Star Trek and it’s the same feeling of calm awe that I get when I sit in the aquarium.

Aliens aside it’s about humanity. It’s always about humanity and trying to understand despite it all (which I think is a core tenet of humanity). And if that compels you then it’s going to stay with you. No matter if the packaging is a bit silly. Maybe even because the packaging is silly.

Also once you love Spock I don’t think you can stop

#captain’s own #star trek #star trek tos #mainly talking about the earlier treks cause I can’t speak for post ds9 #shitty half poem half rambling #I just really love Spock you know

Message from an Overly Sarcastic Productions video that I feel Tumblr and fandoms at large should fucking internalize

#cassie rambles #overly sarcastic productions #catra being shown there really works #because ppl were apparently fuckin awful about her while season 5 was airing #heartbreaking: a character who's actually done shitty things starts trying to get better. this is a tragedy. millions dead.

I just started Harrow the ninth and the shift in tone… was both jarring and kind of hilarious.

#also Gideon Nav being a canonical virgin with acne has no business being so sexy #the locked tomb #gideon the ninth #harrowhark the ninth #harrow the ninth #gideon nav #harrowhark nonagesimus #I guess my MO is now just posting some shitty doodle every 4 months of a different fandom huh #this month it’s locked tomb… in October? who knows…! #surprisingly I don’t have many rambles to put in the tags this time… hmmmm. #god but knowing that tamsyn muir was a homestuck….. lord. I can see it in every inch of her writing #and I love it. #my art #fanart #also the body is t posing to assert dominance btw. and it’s working #comic #though this barely counts as a comic. oh it had two panels huh??? yeah right

izzy hands is a pageant mom who’s stopped seeing her eldest daughter (ed) as a person

in this essay, i will

#scarrlet rambles #i’m sure this is nothing new i never have new ideas #but it’s the way ed sticks by izzy in a way you stick by your shitty parent bc…..well they raised you #you can’t help but try to love someone who feels like your only family #and considering ed’s track record with fathers……oof

i like doing silly self indulgent low-effort comics

#my shitty art #qsmp forever #qsmp philza #qsmp #philever #forphil #caramelduo #apparently thats the new name for the duo since some stuff with dttwt #i like it better ngl #also hope i dont have to mention it everytime but yes this is the characters and purely platonic. #most of my enjoyment of this duo its just the onesided nature with phil sometimes indulging 4ever's antics to cheer him up #i really like their silly dynamic im still sad it's on hold cuz lore has been insane lately #but also im glad cuz it def made q!phil and chay's perception on 4ever improve a lot. which makes me happy #also sorry i like rambling in tags <:)

Genuine question. Have you people ever actually seen hazbin or helluva or do you just fucking bitch about it because it's the trend to do. Like. Helluva has kinda shit first few episodes that are way over the top with sex jokes, but it gets better when it gets to the actual story and they cool it. I bet no on complaining has seen it

#the jokes are decent. the music is great. the animation is beautiful. the overall story imo is good #like shut up about the creator doing shitty stuff more than that person wlrked on it #ri rambles #hazbin hotel #also the subtitles are really good #helluva boss #it has a character who talks in a radio voice all the time it's great

scott and wallace are absolutely fucking insane to me. one is a deeply solipsistic and manipulative person who doesn't even realise it because he's cosplaying so hard as a normal dude. the other is his closest friend, cannot stand him half the time, but still keeps him around anyway because he's sort of a selfish manipulative asshole himself. one lives with the other rent free. they sleep in the same bed. neither of them want to have sex with each other but one of them is actively hooking up with someone who shares a name with the other, sometimes in the bed they share and sometimes he sleeps over afterwards. one is gay and polyamorous and the other is straight and couldn't hold down a relationship with one girl to save his life. i say all of this as a compliment to wallace and an absolute insult to scott. nobody is doing it like them.

#scollace #scott pilgrim #wallace wells #thunder rambles #oh and wallace homewrecked scott's shitty ex gf and her new bf AND he did it while said new bf was method acting as scott. #WHOOOO IS DOING IT LIKE THEM!!!!!
