still not over the stephen colbert thing, the way they're punishing him so much by not only essentially firing him but cancelling the show he loves in its entirety, which means also punishing all 200 people who work for and with him on the show.

it is setting an example. it's saying, "this is what happens when you speak truth to power. we will not only punish you. we'll punish the people around you that you've led and loved. is it worth it now, stephen? would it be worth it, other late night talk show hosts? if you don't keep quiet, we will quiet you". the other late night talk show hosts are not all under paramount (iirc, it's just the daily show), but this sets a precedent that tells them they are all vulnerable.

"it's not a big deal" idk man it really seems like it is

I wish to purchase goods and services without entering a blood covenant that entitles the provider to email and text me forever and also store a bunch of my personal data that they’re going to apologize for exposing in a breach in the next five to ten years

The fabled aroallo cishet man up to nefarious things is such a nonsense concept. Loads of queer people don't even know what aromantic is about. If a cishet man has done enough reflecting to figure out they're aromantic then chances are they've already been a friend and ally to queer people for a considerable amount of time.

also i think people forget that light’s personsona isn’t some snobbish elitist. people see him as just an extra smart guy. he’s a genius and he’s good at tennis but it’s in an endearing way. he’s the guy who you’d ask to help with your homework and he’d smile and say ‘sure!’ and he has a lot of friends even if nobody actually knows him deep down. he wouldn’t get caught as kira because he’d have a meltdown over trans people’s deadnames or whatever he’s good at reacting to new situations. he’s humble and people like him for a reason. he’s uncontroversial and easygoing. he respects authority but is down to earth enough to make jokes. that’s how he survived as kira. his camouflage was actually good. even before kira. you wouldn’t be “put off by his repulsive vibes.”

let’s put it this way. if light had a social media platform he wouldn’t be posting unhinged political takes, no matter his actual politics. he probably wouldn’t be posting about politics at all. he’d probably be posting about organizing or studying or something. hell, maybe he’d be an online tutor that people would love. point is, you think he’s unhinged because you see his inner thoughts. other people don’t.

i don’t really understand when death note fans are like. “why didn’t [character] do [morally correct thing] instead?” well that’s because everyone in death note is a wretch

“why did L do [horrible awful thing] if he’s supposed to be the good guy?” because he’s not a good guy he’s a horrible bastard and opposing a bad guy doesn’t make him a good guy and that’s what’s beautiful about him. plus he was getting off on it

when i say "misa amane deserved better" just know i mean it in the "misa amane deserved to have her personality, backstory, and internal monologues expanded upon just as much as her male counterparts and shouldn't have been written as just an extension of light" and not in the "misa amane is a poor baby angel who did no wrong" way.
