I think what I want to get into with the "Anyone can do harm." thing that I keep beating yall over the head with is that literally anyone, anyone at all can do harm it's not "in your DNA" to be an abuser or written in the stars that you'll be a predator.
Whatever image you have of an abuser in your head, drop it and replace it with your favorite person in the world and you'll probably be closer to the truth than you realize.
It's easy to address harm when it's coming from someone you already hate.
I see it happen all the time. Someone you couldn't stand for no real reason does something heinous then all of a sudden here comes the avalanche of "I always knew they were a fucked up individual."
No, you didn't.
There is no possible way you could have known, you just already didn't fuck with them before they started doing something you could use to justify your hatred of them. I'm guilty of it too! I'm petty, mean, vindictive, and yes! I'm way quicker to believe something bad about someone I hate versus someone I love because I'm human. Still, y all gotta learn to move past that initial "Well, they were always nice to me!" gut feeling and understand that nobody truly knows anyone and anyone can be capable of anything. Even victims. Even you.

one piece fans shitting on the new episode and calling it over-hyped because there wasn't a ton of fighting just don't get it. and honestly it makes me wanna burn the entire shonen community to the ground so we can have a fresh start.
IT. WASN'T. ABOUT. THE. FIGHT.
what makes gear 5 so crazy is how its the culmination of all of one piece's themes put into one power-up !! its about liberation and freedom and laughter !! if you don't understand the importance of those things then you just don't understand one piece.
but no. anime fans don't give a shit about a good narrative. they only want to see cool fights and big boobs. and this episode didn't have a ton of either so it must be bad.

there is no moral value in reading fast and there's also no moral value in reading slowly. people who read slowly aren't automatically/necessarily reading more thoroughly and thoughtfully than people who read quickly, and at the same time reading is not a race. some people read fast because that's how their brains work; some people read slowly because that's how THEIR brains work. some fast readers are getting deep into analysis and close reading and some slow readers are just along for the ride and not thinking too hard. these are both equally valid and valuable ways of engaging with books
and nobody should shame anybody else for reading slowly but also if i see one more post that suggests people who read quickly only read meaningless garbage (your elitism is showing btw) and lack reading comprehension, i will start blocking people. it's just bullshit, and it's weird judgy bullshit at that. some people have jobs in books where reading hundreds of books a year is part of it. some people are academics. some people are bedridden or isolated and trust me you get through a lot of books when you're stuck in your room alone for days. and some people love the books you consider garbage and they're just having fun passing the time with light fiction that isn't too brain intensive and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that either, because reading can be a form of relaxation and doesn't always have to be an ~intellectual challenge~ to be worth doing, actually

those tiktok pro ED videos will not leave me alone and they're not even accurate. "I went from eating burger to eating two cucumbers"...you could eat exclusively mcdonald's and lose weight if you stay in a calorie deficit. misinfo like this is how people become orthorexic - they assume weight loss is as simple as eating healthy and exercising and become distressed when not losing weight, so they switch to more and more extreme methods.
god I fucking hate you "health = weight loss" idiots. if your motivation for health is just weight loss it's not going to end in health...

nothing makes me more infuriated when people defend fucking micah bell of all people "there was a second traitor" no the fuck there wasn't, milton LITERALLY says there wasn't, it wasn't abigail he was holding her hostage, it wasn't molly he said that molly never confessed anything despite the numerous times they interrogated her "he did the laws work for them" no the fuck he didn't, he did it for nothing but GREED and continued to be a fucking outlaw, creating a gang more ruthless where he murdered a CHILD "he spoke out of cowardice" no the fuck he didn't he spoke out of greed and saw the gangs downfall as an easy way to get the money they saved in blackwater.
he isn't the mother fucking goat, he isn't even a character with that good of a writing. I mean, sure, the writing behind him was good, but it wasn't complex, micah bell was a racist, misogynistic man who enjoyed in harassing and assaulting those he deemed beneath him. he's the one dimensional villain you all accuse arthur of being, he thrives on cruelty and greed and that's all there is too him, fucks sake.
and there is no way micah is the strongest character. the end of high honour doesn't prove shit! he beat a dying man to death, and even then he struggled, he even managed to get knocked down you piece of shit my god do you have a brain in your head and if you do why are you not using it.
arthur and micah would never be friends, arthur would rather shoot micah or leave him to hang than save him. micah sees arthur as being beneath him for the simple fact that despite their outlaw life arthur still has a fucking heart.
he is a weak, vile sniffling old creep who enjoys cruelty, lives by his greed and is only looking our for himself. shut up and think for a second.

The TikTok queer community is just, SOOOOO close to being transphobic loud and proud. This person had pansexual in their bio. Like okay, let’s do the work FOR the oppressors!
And I’m not trans. Don’t get me wrong, maybe my opinion is wrong!! But I don’t think anybody who identifies as something, and purposefully plays with gender on the opposite spectrum, is going to attack you. Some trans people take pride in being confusing. Every trans person I’ve ever met was kind and understanding and if you are getting defensive like this over a fake scenario, YOU are the issue.
Why are you imagining this scenario. Why are you possibly IN this scenario? Being gay doesn’t give anyone a pass to openly be an asshole to others in the community and the comments were like a stomping ground for other gay people to say “yeah….you know I DONT like it when trans guys wear feminine clothes, or when a trans girl talks about her JUNK?”
And the speed at which I clocked who was transphobic was intense. I would say impressive but they’re not hiding it, so I don’t have to really look. Anyway, if you see one of these videos, speak up. Make ‘em feel bad. They should. If you’re gay and think you have the right to disrespect others based on the way they look, guess what! I’d doesn’t matter what you identify as, you’re on the side of the people who don’t like you either.
