I think people really, really need to learn the difference between "this story was Poorly Written" and "I had extremely specific expectations of what I wanted this story to be and was extremely disappointed that it went in a different direction."

Similarly, people need to learn the difference between "this character was written Out-of-Character" and "I built up so many headcanons for this particular character that I wound up with my own extremely specific interpretation of them and was extremely disappointed when those headcanons were jossed."

You are allowed to experience disappointment when stories don't go in the direction you want them to! But that is not the same thing as those stories being poorly written.

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.

Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.

So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.

Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.

leia organa truly has one of the best bait-and-switch character introductions of all time because when you meet her she's this brave, stoic picture of elegance and justice and always knows just what to say to vader and tarkin and is clad in white like an angel and is this perfect two-dimensional archetype of pureness of heart. and then approximately half an hour later into the film she meets luke and han and she IMMEDIATELY shows her true colors as a sarcastic, bitchy control freak with a massive impulsive streak and a deep mine of hyperspecific insults. 10/10 character design i'm obsessed with her

“trans people in sports is such a complex issue” it really isn’t. make the sports skills-based instead of segregated by gender. “ohhh but so many people’s lives depend on their sports for scholarships” okay then let’s make university universally funded so people don’t have to worry about paying for it based on how well they can throw a ball. how are you not keeping up

writing is 10% storytelling and 90% rearranging three sentences for an hour like you're trying to solve an ancient curse

Can you imagine being a Bhaalist in Baldur's Gate where the cult has been growing exponentially under this absolutely insane Bhaalspawn. Who is perhaps the best leader the cult has ever had. The temple looks great, the murder is going. You're two days shy of world domination and he just. Vanishes.

His second in command pops up in his place. You all hate her. She's loud, sloppy, and overly dramatic and for once you're praying someone ISN'T dead. The temple falls into disrepair. But the world domination is still going.

Roughly a year later the missing Bhaalspawn kicks down the cult door, and you finally think they're gonna fix everything.

BUT THEN,

They kill orin in the duel (yay)

Reject Bhaal in favor of... Friendship?

Leave????

No wonder the cultists are so stupefied

Just got my pin from @prideknights! So excited I was worried it wouldn't come in time for pride. It looks absolutely amazing.

I only recently came out as trans and this was the first thing I got to show my pride.
