I'm enjoying everyone making jokes about Jon and Martin kissing in windows 95 can't wait for Jonny and Alex to make that abundantly untrue

Okay.

I was mad about S2E8, but the fan response has me worried. I'm seeing people being very uncharitable towards each other and the creators. The fandom infighting I can live with. That's fandom for you. But I am concerned about how this could impact the creators. Rant incoming, be ye warned.

First and foremost, I hope the entire creative team behind OFMD turns off their internet for a while. I'm sure they're getting absolutely mobbed right now, and they don't deserve it. I want to trust them to understand how the internet works and tune out, because this is the kind of shit that damages people. I'm genuinely scared for them.

We have got to stop making it dangerous to tell Queer stories. It's hard not to lash out when something hurts, and the internet makes lashing out so easy to do. It hurts like hell when you (reluctantly) trust a creator, and they disappoint you. But I can't think of a Queer show or creator that hasn't faced online harassment from the Queer community, and that is fucking tragic.

I didn't like S2E8. I thought it was poorly executed, especially compared to the astonishingly high-quality writing in the rest of the show. But just because I didn't think it was good, doesn't mean it has to be evil. And frankly, I hope no one involved with the show ever sees my criticism of it. As a writer, I know what kind of feedback helps, and what just hurts. My venting and analysis isn't for them, it's for me and my fellow pirate enjoyers. My feelings have a place, and DJenkins' inbox is not it. Telling a story I personally disliked is not a crime. There should be no punishment for doing it.

I trusted the OFMD team to tell a good story. That trust has taken a dent or two, because a character I cared for died in a way that was, to my mind, trite, forced, unsatisfying, and unkind. That was disappointing. I am disappointed. I can live with that. But if the creators suffer for telling Queer stories, that would be unfathomably worse. And if that scares people off from telling Queer stories in future? That would be heartbreaking.

I wish I could rage and froth about the stories I care about without worrying about collateral damage. And if those stories weren't about marginalized people, I could. That's the kicker. That's the double standard. People who create and consume status-quo-ass-kissing media don't have to worry so much about this shit. Their icons can commit terrible real-world crimes and sell memoirs about it. Mine can't even make a divisive narrative choice without getting loudly condemned straight to super-hell.

TL:DR Creators of Queer stories get held to impossible standards. Please leave DJenkins and the team alone. Online harassment = bad.

The new AvA episode really has made me wonder just how many people do or don't see Victim and Chosen as siblings. I always assumed the majority was siblings, but now I second guess my thoughts??

Being a fan of jujutsu kaisen is like receiving a nice little teddy bear but having that teddy bear shredded the next day but THEN you receive another nice little teddy bear but this one is ripped apart as well

well that sucks.

#pokemon #fangames #rip relic castle #we can't have nice things #either it's legit or it's a random jerk c&ding everything for lulz #here's hoping sage and mario fangames galaxy don't get axed too #fangames and fanmusic and fanfic keep people interested in a source media so this is kind of shooting themselves in the foot #of course considering the trend of $60-70 games with $30+ DLC (or worse $200+ sum) vs free fangames that can take much longer to develop... #pure profit vs potential loss of profit

My immediate thought upon seeing this scene:  ‘So pretty!  This is going to be on fire or something by the end of the series, isn’t it...’

...we’re probably going to cry over a tree because Jinx finds the hideout and torches it, aren’t we...

One of the reason why I hate most of thai bls fans (if the shoe doesn't fit then you're fine) is the delusional fans? Now that Bible is rumored to have a girlfriend, people are absolutely shitting on him, as if he doesn't deserve respect or anything. These fans need to go touch some grass. Actors are actors, they act. Why get mad when you learn he might not be in a relationship with his co-star?
