rereading the hivebent commentary makes me so annoyed that people are never really willing to analyze the actual effects that alternian culture clearly had on every troll, especially the highbloods. pretty much the only troll who ever actually gets taken in the context of her upbringing is vriska.
no one ever seems willing to think about the character arcs of trolls like equius and terezi, who are also bluebloods with extremely hypocritical and toxic understandings of the people around them-- equius is boiled down to a gross creep who is just like that naturally and definitely didn't get it from his society in any way, whilst terezi is scrubbed of virtually all her flaws and turned into a strange sort of based love interest character who is all about being gay and too cool to be tricked by any of the alternian propaganda. quadrants? classism? how silly! terezi would never believe in stupid shit like that. she's quirky! and GAY!
despite the fact that equius and terezi both obviously have much, much more to their personalities than that-- and the alternian empire is informing way more dangerous things about these kid's beliefs than "kiss annoying people".

Be so fucking for real my firesetter plushies got here and like an hour after they arrived i went to the mail room to grab them and they grew legs and WALKED AWAY because that package was NOWHERE to be seen . I turned the whole room upside down and asked the staff and no one knows where it is.
I think some lady grabbed it thinking it was hers bc i guess were just gonna grab packages without actually making sure the information is accurate. Ok
Hopefully they track her down and figure this out cuz thats so annoying . I spent 70 bucks and waited for months and i SWEAR i knew something was gonna go wrong the whole time and it DID . The worst part is theyre limited edition so i cant just buy them again and ill never be able to get them . All because the package evaporated ig.
Now i get mad every time i see the plushies i swear why is my luck with packages and merch so bad lately .

for the violence ask game: 8 common fandom opinion everyone is wrong about. for milgram. i know exactly what you're going to say i just want to see you go off again
Hiii bestie. You do know what I'm about to talk about. Yippee
Disclaimer that this whole essay is like. For fun and how I say things is ramped up to be funny. I don't mind if you disagree w me cuz like that's the nature of things! We disagree but we can get along.
Anyways short answer for people who don't wanna see the essay: organ harvesting theory. This is about shidou.
Idk how prevalent it is rn since not many people even talk about shidou but it was prevalent enough in June when I got into milgram that I believed it for a bit anyways the rest in under the cut cuz I'm insane sorrg
SO the main reason I think the theory is WRONG (hyperbole‼️) is because I just think it's unrealistic. Man works in a hospital in Japan. How would he pull it off. Scuff an operation bad enough to cause braindeath/death and I'm p sure they suspend your medical licence, if he participated in an organ harvesting operation pre-family-accident his case would then be black and white cuz he was doing it in complete sound mind with no regard for human life. Also it wouldn't justify the extreme reaction he's had to realizing, specifically, "what I've been robbing people of" (t1 voice trailer), and he wouldn't have as heavy a focus on the relatives' feelings and reactions. At least story writing wise it'd make less sense since it doesn't allude to anything if that's the end goal? Imo at least. Idk maybe this is because I really like tragedies in media. Also because it'd be a really disproportionately severe crime compared to every other direct murderer???? Like. We have strangled someone, stabbed someone, bludgeoning, bludgeoning, kicked someone to death. Organ harvesting looks cartoony in this context. It's also not a very prevelant issue in Japan iirc.
Also to prove my point further. If we use this theories the murders would be
Strangling, abortion??????, cyber bullying, stabbing, organ harvesting, toxic r/s, telling the truth (lmao), bludgeoning, bludgeoning, bludgeoning (minus weapon). Organ harvesting is goofy cuz it seems so.... Extreme,,,,,,,
ALSSOOOOO funny point. If he's not directly involved in his murder (as in, unintentional and indirect) that makes 5 direct and 5 indirect. Silly.
Also also his murder seems somewhat tied to how he feels about his job itself ("I wanted to contribute to society (about his career choice)/I had thought my work was a contribution to society", use of past tense) and to me it reads like hes disillusioned w his job esp since his reason for getting a highly sought after, high paying and high social ranking job is "I wanted to contribute to society". Doctors with that empathy can be affected by the death around them more severely and I think that's a fun topic to look at
I count this under "common fandom opinion" cuz it was common enough around June (whenyours truesly got into milgram) that I believed it. I mean I introduced shidou to my friend (hello clown) as "maybe Dr malpractice. Organ harvesting dude" and said friend (hello again clown) is also the one who's heard me bash the organ harvesting theory like 6 times at least now so. Yippee.
Take none of this seriously I just got off a plane and am so very eepy. If you like the organ harvesting theory good for you!!!!!!!💥💥💥💥💥 you do you bestie !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I literally do not think less of anyone who believes that theory I just personally dont lmao

EWWW THE GUY WHO JOINED YOUR SERVER FOR GROSS R34 EUGH EUGH EW.
De..athst.ar shippers come in 2 flavors: the whump/abuse fanatics and the he-man womanlesbian-haters (/ref) chuds. I can never tell which is worse when they equally make me wanna yarf. I'm telling you, EVERY time I come across those guys SOMEONE IS POSTING CROPPED PORN. ALWAYS, ALWAYS WITH THE CROPPED PORN. This is a kids show for for flarf's sake it's just disgusting!! I know every fandom has its bad eggs but jfc!! ((Sorry to vent in your inbox but that rb brought up SO many annoying memories))
GOD! Tbh I'm sure there's a huge overlap between types. Apparently the stupid sexy "fanservice" in Dom's song worked because it drew in these disgusting weirdos in droves! If you look up WOY on any given website you’ll see at minimum a suggestive Dom pin-up!
It's not just the fandom having bad apples, it's them being drawn in and encouraged by the show. Sex sells. That's why the fandom exploded after My Fair Hatey came out and Dom's song went viral. Sure, there were others that saw the video and came too. But the massive influx of untagged porn was... hell.
And I'm still mad about how the crew's behavior (minus ND... he tried so hard and it's no coincidence that the episode he wrote is the only one where I liked Dom as a character...) lured these misogynist pervs in.
It was an incel storyline with the standard incel conclusion that she didn't love him because she was too evil to love. (Really hurt to see that as an aro who thought I was a girl...)
Then there's all these close-ups/emphasis on her boobs and butt, with expression and even anatomy sacrificed to make her look sexy... on a kid's show... Seriously, there was a revision where they had the pose redone because she didn't look attractive enough. Pissed me off to no end.
ND aside she didn't even get written as a character. Replace her with a sexy lamp and galaxy wide natural diaster and it'd be the same plot without the rampant misogyny. Still can't believe that the narrative taught Sylvia to follow Wander without question... Instead of her getting to sit him down and explain that he was being a heteronormative, sexist ass who only treated Dom as a prop to change Hater.
Hah. Yeah. As if Dom would charm him into being a good guy and live a happy, quiet domestic life when she wants to rip not only his spine out, but every spine in the galaxy.
Fun trivia! Once Craig said that C.Peeps banned women fron the army because Hater was nervous around them. Because they're (both) sexist. I find that hard to believe when he's the only man who respected Dom as a person (or at all) once her helmet came off.
Yeah. Not the all-loving do-gooder who was increasingly treated as an infinitely wise being. The guy who will shoot people for looking at him funny.

2023 redraw of this… thing! I missed these guys so bad but it was lovely to see people drawing them over artfight! I may actually get some short comics of them done in the near future 👉👈
Third image is a throwback to the very original from… 2018? 2019? I drew it for pride season, so their outfits were coloured according to their flags. Tbh I fully see Eli wearing every colour in the rainbow and Theo’s is basically his colour palette anyway
This is the 2020 version (the last time I drew this :O!)
