Petition to stop using "Ascendant Astarion" and just call him "Lord Astarion" cause is shorter to write lol
i dont get offended at white people jokes even though im white because:
i can recognize white people as a whole have systemically oppressed POC in america, which is where i live
most people when they make white people jokes only mean the shitty white people and i am not a shitty white person
im not a pissbaby
“sex/love is what makes us human!” people when then realize other animals do the same:

Because I still have shit to say, apparently.
The thing that’s been really frustrating me about how the Adam/Eric break-up played out and how people have been reacting to it, is that I think there are two entirely different things at play here, and conflating them creates confusion.
The first thing is Eric feeling the need to break up with Adam because he feels like he can’t be his true self with him. And this might be controversial, but I think Eric had every right to do that. No matter what, everyone always has the right to break up with someone if the relationship doesn’t work for them.
The second thing is that, for the moment (we’ll see how a potential season 4 deals with this), I get the sense the show wants me to believe that objectively speaking, Eric was correct in thinking he couldn’t be himself with Adam, that he was losing himself because of Adam. And that’s the thing I have a problem with.
People have already talked about how Adam never once tried to get Eric to be anything but his true self as far as Eric’s behaviour and style goes. And while, yes, he wasn’t out to his mum yet, he was out to literally everyone else in their lives—and all he was asking for was a little time to gather the courage to come out to his mum too. But the thing I want to talk about is how, after a whole season of Adam going out of his comfort zone in various ways (and not just for Eric, but for his own sake too, like asking Ms Sands for help in getting better with school), Adam says he didn’t think putting make up on and going to a gay club would be his thing, and Eric immediately, without even talking to him about it, decided that was a fixed point of Adam’s character and that meant Adam wasn’t the guy for him.
And again, I’m not actually saying Eric was wrong to feel that. I’m just saying that, based on Adam’s pattern of behaviour, I wish the show wouldn’t act as if it was an objective truth.
Because the thing is, Adam doesn’t like poetry. That’s not his thing either. And the second Eric actually used his words and told him that he liked it, Adam went and not only read a poetry book, but actually put real, impressive effort into writing poetry himself. All because Eric told him he liked it.
What I’m saying is, the idea that Adam wouldn’t agree to go to a gay club with Eric (with or without putting make-up on himself), if Eric actually expressed that it mattered to him, just doesn’t work for me.
So, yeah, Eric broke up with Adam because he wanted to fly while Adam’s still learning to walk and, you know what, that’s fair enough. But it seems to me that the only reason Eric didn’t think Adam was ready to fly is because he never actually paid all that much attention to Adam, and all the ways in which he already wasn’t the person Eric thought he was. (See also Eric’s dismissive laughter at the idea Adam could ever write him poetry, when in fact, that’s exactly what Adam then did.)
Also, I really could have gone without the idea that not wanting to go out to a gay club while wearing make-up means Adam isn’t ready to fly. It probably means he and Eric aren’t compatible, sure, but it’s not actually a sign that Adam isn’t on Eric’s evolved level of queerness yet. Shockingly enough, it’s possible to be a fully realized queer without enjoying the club scene!
Idk, I just wish the break-up happened because Eric realized they weren’t compatible because they enjoy different things. Presenting it as an issue of Adam not being on Eric’s level of queerness yet really left a bad taste in my mouth, especially as it was used as a way to sort of excuse Eric cheating.
And I know Adam loves Eric and is devastated by the break-up, but the main reason I’m okay with it is because he deserves better than someone who not only constantly pushes him out of his comfort zone, but then completely fails to even see the progress he’s making.
i’m bored too i shouldn’t be what about me?
Because I’m curious and bored, which Greek Mythology character do I remind y’all of?
I don't know; sometimes I think shipcourse really needs to be tagged with unreality because the stuff I've seen is too unreal to be real.
Seeing people wailing about how they're the "sane and moral" ones because they shit themselves over every problematic thing in fiction is kind of trippy. People acting like shipping two fictional characters together is the equivalent of being a pedophile is really fucking unreal.
There's something about seeing people act like being pro-fiction means whatever bad thing they want is weird.
Seeing people who are worried about being "converted" or meeting a "proshiter", people who assume freely what people get off to, and acting like moral crusaders is bizarre.
I don't know; I just think it's kind of unsettling how many people can't separate fiction from reality to any degree at all.
Legality means literally nothing in terms of what's ethical/good. Like you said, homosexuality is also illegal in a lot of places, but the fact it's illegal doesn't make it inherently wrong.
The inverse is also true. Just because something is legal in the US does not make it inherently right or moral. I don't care about what's legal, I care about what's right.
What's right to you is not right to everybody.
Who do you fancy yourself? Kira?
i know kt said all the shinigami would be horrible drivers but i think someone should give rukia a monster truck
final two that I would pick for each season. obv I love the finales for every season (except action tbh) but I like the idea of these ones:
leshawna and owen. I can't not have owen, and leshawna honestly deserved a win.
lindsay and harold. LIKE THEY BOTH DESERVED THAT WIN BE REAL also it would've been such a cool final duo.
heather and cody. I really just hate the idea of alejandro winning and I think these two would be so interesting and I would love the idea of both of them winning.
brick and lightning. I just think they're neat.
courtney and zoey OK I LOVE COURTNEY SO WHAT
sammy and shawn I WILL FOREVER LOVE THEM BOTH
bowie and julia. I love them.

the way ppl treat insects is gross. i literally can't say anything about liking spiders without some annoying bitch who thinks they're funny going "omg noooo kill them all death to all bugs smashing bugs to death is morally correct and if you like bugs you personally hate everyone who's afraid of them" like im so tired of you all
wider tumblr doesnt know how awful the professor layton fandom on here was in like 2013 or whatever and the worst part is it was like 200 people at the absolute most so just the highest density of insanity in one place ive ever seen. clive dove is the secret tumblr sexyman and the discourse around him was unreal because some people thought he was hot and then he smashed up london with a giant mecha which is good and righteous regardless of motive but anyway idk why he inspired such intense lust and loathing because they didnt even draw him hot he looks like this ↓
the kneesocks were considered ravishing in their time .
