We'll just file this in the "No Shit" Section of the office....right next to the file cabinet that contains old standbys like "Water Is Wet, A Treatise" and "The Sun Makes Things Hot In The Summer, A Retrospective".

There aren't enough notes on this

This is the most accurate description I’ve ever found, thought it was worth spreading ❀

today we post everett true

a few reminders because i’m tired and angry

fandom is a hobby, not a form of activism

adult women aren’t inherently creepy for being in fandom and having hobbies apart from raising babies and doing taxes

the vast majority of people pushing back against the worrying trend of instigating harassment over fictional characters and relationships aren’t incest supporters or pedophiles, actually

liking a m/f ship doesn’t make someone a dirty heterosexual invading your space

preferring gay ships doesn’t make you ‘’woke’’ and good

no one owes you a disclaimer that they are a good person who recognizes that their favorite fictional villain’s actions are evil and that they don’t condone those actions irl

liking a fictional villain is in no way comparable to advocating abuse/murder/genocide/etc and you’re a fucking idiot if you believe that

just because a woman is attracted to a fictional villain doesn’t mean she’s promoting toxic relationships or going to end up in a toxic relationship. assuming women can’t tell fiction and reality apart stinks of internalized misogyny 

some rando’s a/b/o fanfics have none of the level of influence that popular tv shows and movies spreading propaganda have

no one owes you a detailed description of their traumas and mental health problems

abusive relationships are not the same as enemies to lovers ships

y’all need to chill the fuck out over people, relationships, actions and events that don’t actually exist and learn how to enjoy and discuss them like normal people

fandom is a hobby, not a form of activism

Or, ya know, a story about a family that didn't starve through the winter because the dad(the Hunter in the name of the movie) had to hunt animals for food, even though every time he did it, he treated the animal with respect, and felt not only remorse, but maintained a thankful attitude throughout his life for these animals?

Nah....too realistic for how a lot of these homesteaders behaved.

(Don't start on me about they treated other people, because a lot of them behaved properly around others including indigenous people....the government is the one that came up with the horrible shit that happened, and the weak willed and honestly evil people jumped on that bandwagon and destroyed and raped and pilliaged.)

In Disney's new movie Hunter we learn that the guy who killed Bambi's mom lost his entire family when a herd of evil deer set his cabin on fire

the fact that pro-monarchy arguments have degenerated, over the past few centuries, from “the king rules by divine right and is accountable to nobody but god”, to “uhm the royals generate a lot of income from tourism” will never stop being extremely funny to me

Agreed.....yeah, we had some anti-fascists over here, but nowhere near enough, and a comic book character didn't swing any tides.

unfortunate that the united states has been very successful at controlling narratives around word war 2 and positioning itself as the polar opposite of nazism and the main force fighting fascism when america was complicit in the holocaust. not only did american press report positively about hitler and the nazi party up until the end of the 30′s, some publications cooperated with nazi germany, american companies had investments and connections to nazi germany that they maintained until american involvement in the war, and companies like ibm in particular gave nazis the technology necessary to make the holocaust possible in the first place. some company owners themselves had nazi sympathies like henry ford and others just saw it as a business opportunity. the us denied entry to european jewish refugees and deported jewish refugees back to germany, many senators and other government officials during the 1930s openly supported nazism and worked to prevent the us from taking a side in ww2, and during the 30s large pro nazi rallies were held across the us. american eugenics movement, american race laws and american genocide set the model for the holocaust and there shouldnt be any discussion of nazism and the holocaust without also discussing the extent of american complicity in it. 

anyways heres some material on it

ibm and the holocaust

hitlers american friends

Can confirm.... Conservatives say the same ugly shit and want to tell you what to do...they just say it differently....but it's still the same bullshit.

liberal family members when a woman cuts her hair very short: I respect your decision but I can’t lie, I think you look better with your hair longer. Is this just an experiment, do you think you’ll grow your hair out after this? Again, I respect your decision, but I do think longer hair looks better than you. I think it is very important that, while I know I have no say in what you do with your hair, I need you to know that I think you look better with your hair long. Don’t be offended, but it is of utmost importance that you understand that you look better to me when you have long hair.

Or the other standby, "If you think cops are useless, next time call a Meth Head,"

Well, I've known plenty of "Meth Heads", and if were to call them and say I just got robbed and there's at least a $50 finder's fee to get my shit back, they would come into my (then) neighborhood within fifteen minutes, probably with friends hanging onto and out of the car, looking like a bunch of Warboys charging into battle.

I would likely end up with my shit back....and probably quite a few things that were similar looking that they would have to return...

"ooh you hate cops but who are you gonna call when you get robbed?" uhhhhh your moms house? a great tragedy has befallen me and i need to have sex immediately
