idk i just think that fandom in general would be less of a headache if ppl were willing to admit that sometimes we enjoy seeing antagonists suffer violent consequences not because it’s necessary or moral or fair or just, but because it can be cathartic and dare i say even fun

my desire to see more characters try to self-destruct by vomiting up a deluge of the most damning lies about themselves in a fit of despair and loathing and desire to be punished in some way vs. my knowledge that at least some audiences would take their words at face value and metatextually respond exactly the way they're hoping for

Can we hear more about that theory?
it's less of a theory and more just derangement, and a specific angle of viewing the story. but smth i think that is crucial to how i see the story and something that i think is too-often deemphasized in the fandom, regardless of how much you buy into the derangement lmao, is that c!discduo is not...really a standalone relationship. i mean it is, but in just as many ways it isn't...and the reason why the finale and you know, an actual conversation between the two of them takes so long to get to is precisely because it was overshadowed by the third component of their whole deal. are you following? does this make sense? i dont know.
c!dream + c!tommy are one side of a triangle that supports quite literally everything abt their whole central conflict and narrative, with the third part being, well, c!wilbur. and the c!wilbur-c!tommy-c!dream of it all is quite understandably easy to miss, but it's also what i think leads to some of the most striking differences in c!dream and c!tommy interpretations, not to mention the story as a whole. c!wilbur's relationship with c!dream and c!tommy separately AND together is critical to the ways that the two characters develop and how their conflict evolves--i'd say that that's more just. canon, than a theory. but how far you extend that is where it kinda delves into different interpretations of canon, you know?
but it's just like ... when the whole fucking point of that last stream, the whole damn crux of it is when tommy says "i thought you were just a villain" and dream replies with "i am and i always have been" and the whole damn POINT is that these viewpoints were never true to begin with, when what dream throws to tommyinnit is a picture of lmanburg, when the shit that they have to dismantle to reach out at the end of the fucking world is the hero/villainisms that have DEFINED THEIR STORY independently AND together, it's like. look . when the story is like dismantling the literal source of their conflict and c!wilbur's fingerprints are all over the damn thing, it feels a Little reductive to see the conversation so consistently happen without even invoking his name, you know?

tfw "popular" fanon becomes so embedded in a fandom & discussions within fandom spaces that people just start treating it as the default and all interactions with others are coloured by this interpretation. have you considered that I actually don't subscribe to this take, which is nowhere in the source material? wait nvm, clearly not.

what I love about those timid handwringing “am I allowed to breathe air???” types is sometimes a miracle will happen and something in their brains will snap and you can watch them kill the hall monitor in their heads with a shovel

no but fr there is a demographic of women obsessed with blaming gay men for the evils of straight men and it destroys me every time I see it. I know they’re there but it always makes my heart seize up when I see a video of a woman talking about being abused, betrayed or hurt by a man and I open the comments to see ‘he did that because he was secretly gay’.

“why do you say waving usa flag bad at (supposedly) ‘leftist’ protest is bad… don’t you known usa not start with trump” in the real world we think the usa was evil from inception

i think its really telling how a lot of cis people will wring their hands over detransitioners and tomboys and the idea that testosterone is this HUGE risk that you have to be clinically diagnosed to take.... yet in the same breath have zero sympathy for trans girls in puberty who are essentially dealing with the same effects against their will.

the thing is. knowing someone experiences hallucinations or trouble reading facial expressions or communication difficulties or any other symptom CAN help you to understand their behaviour and respond to it appropriately. but knowing someones diagnosis is never as helpful as it is to listen to them when they talk about how they can best be accommodated. and if “can you please speak slower” (for example) sounds like a ridiculous request from someone without a diagnosis and a reasonable one from someone with a diagnosis. well you’re the dick in that situation

Much of the anti-Palestinian bigotry on this site is reflective of something stranger: the infantilisation of politics. Defences of Zionism are increasingly expressed through the language of hurt feelings, sentimental appeals, and subjective fears - to a point where even incitement to genocide is dressed up in cuteified terms. But it makes no difference. To be 'upset' at the sight of a keffiyeh, or to say that 'from the river to the sea' is more threatening than the IDF blowing up hospitals, is to admit tacitly that you're a racist who sees a people's struggle for freedom as a personal affront. It's the uwu-ification of hatred, coated with mangled standpoint theory and lib speak from the Obama years.

What "Land Back" means:
In my tribe we believe medicine belongs to everyone and I want you to be well.
In my tribe we believe every hungry person is entitled to food and I want you to be fed.
In my tribe we believe trans and two spirit people are sacred and I want you to be safe.
In my tribe we believe that human beings are here to care for the land and keep it healthy and I want you to have clean water to drink.
In my tribe we believe in caring for and venerating elders and I want care for you as you grow old.
In my tribe we believe that children should be cared for by the community and I want your children to grow up loved and supported.
In my tribe we wear really cool earrings and you should totally buy some. Eeeeeeeee
Land Back isn't about revenge. It's an act of love.

there are many things tumblr as a whole has to learn but one of them is “someone can reblog a post without them endorsing every action the op has ever taken, we are not beholden to do background checks on the producers of every shitpost on the internet”
