Just finished reading the Jurassic Park novel, and after reading and watching other peopels opinions on it online (especially the divide between the book vs the movie), I was kinda bummed to see how everyone was hating on novel John Hammond, saying he is the cliche of the "evil rich dude" and the movie version is much more sympathetic, a character with redeeming qualities.

People have the right to their own opinions, but I wonder, are there more people who, like me, prefer the novel version?

I like to look for the shades of grey in characters too, but I don't believe that everyone has to presented in a positive light, not everyone has to be sympathetic. The novel version of Hammond just seemed to fit much more into the story.

His character was far more realistic for me not only because his shortcomings were, in big part, the cause behind the disaster (apart from the chaos theory and messing with nature, bringing an extict species into the world that has changed so much), it also showed what I see in today's world - the greed of capitalism. How treating your employees like shit and trying to spare yourself as much money as possible at the expense of the product always comes with consequences that, in one way or the other, ruin people's lifes.

His greed to make as much money as possible with no care in the world when it came to the people and the world around him masked as a wish to provide people, especially children, with amazing entertainment, is such a glaring theme in today's world. Everyone is so focused on improvement and progress and making money and becoming sucessful and rich and famous… oftentimes at the expense of other people, the world, or the created product itself.

The lack of mention of this additional message that is present in the book just started grating on my nerves so I had to vent… There is more to be said, and, of course, much more smartly than my emotion-driven word vomit, but I just had to get it out and see if maybe there are some ppl here who'd share my view and/or would like to present an alternative interpretation.

Okay I’m not really a part of this fandom but I’ve been following along cuz it looks kinda cool

So I do wanna say that I noticed smth in the last episode of Hazbin Hotel involving Alastor?

Like it’s canonical that he’s never not smiling right? But I was watching his fight with Adam again and I saw this:

His shadowwwww was FROWNINGGGGG

But then it corrects itself like half a second later!!

It’s a blink-and-you-miss-it moment:

I'll be real the second any trans person shows up on my dash making any kind of post generalizing transmasc or transfemme people negatively i check out. literally don't care if the evil trans woman or evil trans man said something upsetting to you or you've had bad experiences with a particular group of people; the generalization shit is lame, being defensive about it is lame, you are literally smarter than this - stop, reflect, take some deep breaths, go do something else

Wish regular folks on the internet would stop towing the line and continuing to act like furries are some weird, deviant thing nowadays. I’ll be watching Vinny Vinesauce and a hot male furry design will show up in a game and he’ll go ‘oh. Oh god. Oh god chat no. OH GODD WHY. EUGH CHAT STOP. (makes an inhuman noise) WHY ARE HIS TITS SO.’ Like, man, relax. His tits are so because it’s hot, get horny like the rest of us, next question.

#delete later #personal #I have to be reminded sometimes that non internet people actually believe being a furry is a dsm5 mental illness #and I’m not exaggerating a friend was in a psych class on mental illnesses and they used images of mlp ponies and bronies in fursuits #as an example of paraphilia
