What's up with the collective obsession with Alastor though? He barely did anything, he just sat there being a creepy ugly tumblr sexyman. Vaggie and Angel were amazing and I love them, I thought they'd be the stars of the fandom. I don't want to tell people it's wrong to like this or that character but I do have to wonder if people would love Alastor this much if he were a woman.

#it's complicated. similar to the thing about m/m being much more popular than f/f #it's not the fault of individuals and it'd be wrong to accuse them or anything #or demand they change their tastes to ''make up'' for something #and no one is really doing anything wrong #no one should ''think about why they like the things they like'' #because you simply like it and that's it #but I'm genuinely wondering if I'm missing something here with Alastor #the reason he's the fandom's favorite #he's just eh to me. he's okay

Oof and people being mad about shipping characters when it "doesn't fit their sexuality" or whatever. It reminds myself of being 15 and getting worked up over stupid shit. Who cares if he's gay and she's a lesbian, or if big hot tumblr sexyman is asexual? They're 2D furry demons, everyone should be able to understand it's not homophobic to do that, unless you're not writing long rants about it and telling everyone very explicitly how you're shipping it purely for trolling purposes. What makes you homophobic is having behaviors that endanger real queer people, not thinking two characters with "incompatible sexualities" could have chemistry.

Just finished watching Hazbin Hotel and wondering why so many people hate it so much. It seems like a perfectly normal show to me. Its only crime was being edgy and not having smooth transitions between regular dialogue and musical numbers. I can't fathom why people would claim its problematic.

#i saw someone claiming vaggie was ''angry latino stereotype'' and first off if you're using the word latinO with O to talk abt a woman #you clearly don't know enough to be making any claims on what is and isn't good latin american representation #stay in your lane

youre telling me a ham fisted this metaphor??

🙃 Regular reminder that while Hozier has amazing love songs, he is ALSO very outspoken about his leftist politics, specifically anti-fascism, anti-racism, reproductive rights, Palestinian rights and more.

Take Me To Church and Foreigner’s God are scathing critiques of organized religion, specifically the Catholic Church and the colonization of Ireland.

Moment’s Silence is about oral sex but it’s ALSO about how that specific sexual act is often distorted to a show of power rather than that of love.

Nina Cried Power is an homage to various (mostly Black) civil rights activists from the US and Ireland and a call to follow their path.

Be criticizes anti-migrant policies and Trump and his ilk.

Jackboot Jump is about the global wave of fascism and about protest and resistance.

Swan Upon Leda is about reproductive rights and the violent colonial oppression of Ireland and Palestine.

Eat Your Young is about the ruinous way the 1%/capitalism and arms dealers prioritize short-term profit over everything else to the detriment of the youth/99%

Butchered Tongue is about Irish and other indigenous languages being suppressed and erased by imperial powers.

If any of the above surprised you, please, please delve deeper into Hozier’s music, you’re missing such an important part of his work.

Bonus points if one of the reasons Nancy hates her - the greatest reason, actually - is because Robin awakens something new and special in her, something her past loves had never quite given her. She always wanted to escape the suburban housewife lifestyle her mother is trapped in - chasing a successful career, as a strong woman - but that rebellion always came in the form of a fight, anger, frustration, everyone is your enemy, you have to shed your lambskin and become wolf. Freedom never came in the form of happiness and comfort. If freedom came in the form of love then she did not want it. It was a trap. It was easy and she didn't deserve "easy". She couldn't want Robin in this way, because it was selfish and wrong and beyond a line she couldn't cross, and she thinks that a gun will make her strong, but it does not. Deep down she is still cowardly and weak. This torment is Robin's fault and she must be punished for it.

Uh oh got kidnapped by ronance brainrot but too scared to interact with ronance accounts due to being a certified freak, known for them freaky icky fanwork and stuff. Doesn't stop me from having r.onance thoughts I want to share though.

Like the fact that I desperately need it to be meaner. I need it to be one-sided for a long time. I need Nancy to be uncaring at best and cruel at worst while Robin seeks approval. I love the fanfics and I love soft nice Nancy because both girls deserve softness, but the initial reason I began shipping them when I first watched S4 was seeing Robin fluttering around Nancy like an orphaned puppy while Nancy acted annoyed all the time. The angst of crushing on a girl that lowkey loathes you. The shame that comes with it, the humilliation. She used to be so proud - so above it all, so confident - thinking this girl a "priss", no one she'd ever crave attention from. But here she is. Trying to impress her. Puppy girl x mean girl is what I'm saying. Suddenly Steve seems a lot less stupid for having fallen in love with her. Even worse, she had his mistake as an example to learn from, but she never did.
