i think people have forgotten the art of vibes-based enjoyment. not everything has to be explained or perfectly planned out or morally correct. sometimes it's okay for a book or movie or show or whatever to just be fun and sometimes that's all a piece of media should be. just fun for the sake of fun

#erin rambles #i'm bored of people acting like they occupy the moral high ground simply bc they've torn apart a piece of popular media and deemed bad #or pointing out every plot hole like it's a glaring mistake #i'd like to think i'm a pretty smart person #I pick up on major themes and recurring motifs and all that fun shit #and I think it's fun!!#I think they're important and cool plot devices that are fun to pick out #but not everything is going to be a perfect work of art #NOR SHOULD IT BE #it's like everyone has divorced themselves from the concept of suspension of disbelief #and I weep for them #and this is coming from someone who fucking digs on Greek myth #the majority of what i've read this year has been Greek retellings #so I can get down with the classics and all that philosophical school assignment bullshit because that was my life #I like to observe and debate messages #but sometimes you should just fucking turn your brain off and read something that's categorically Not Great #something that's silly or dumb or just filthy #and still be able to recognize the value in what you read #because as long as you enjoyed it the text inherently holds value #ugh #I've been thinking about this for a long time can u tell
