couldn’t sleep because i was thinking about bruce and his wideness and his appeal to many demographics

Yes, Bruce is strong and wide and so so appealing. But do you know who else is too?

colors are shit.

They're bi4bi. They're coworkers. They solve crimes. Nobody comments on the crimes they commit together. She's very pretty and fashionable and he's a guy in a suit (affectionate). They didn't sleep together but they didn't not sleep together. Their favourite mode of communication is the double entendre.

because i'm curious about the current state of privacy norms on tumblr (clarifications below)

yes this is inspired by age/sex/location

Clarifications:

by share i mean: you've written it in tags (e.g. on posts that say "let me know where you're from in the tags!"), you would provide that information if asked, it's in your bio, you don't actively hide it, etc.

if you lie about one of them, i consider that to be not sharing.

for location, if you share your country (or state/region, if in the US, considering the sheer number of USAmericans on here) then i'd consider that sharing.

for age, if you share a rough age range (like 'early 20s'), I would consider that sharing.

yes i know that gender does not necessarily equal pronouns, but it's similar enough for this silly little poll.

for example: my pronouns are in my bio. i would be open about being an adult, if asked, but don't specify my age any further. i am not from the US but don't share anything more about my location. therefore, i would pick 'gender/pronouns only'.

Re: the debate going on again about if Persona should focus more on adult characters, I think it's interesting because i don't have a firm stance either way. There are some plotlines that I think would hit harder if the characters were adults, or plotlines I would pursue more thoroughly if they were. For example, I think the Phantom Thieves as college students would have been amazing, but I don't know how Joker's criminal record would work with that unless he's a dropout, or if you removed the school game mechanic, which is so vital to modern Persona games?

On the other hand, I also think teen/young adult protags hit for such a wide audience because they are struggles the target audience has either already experienced or currently is. It's funny, because I think any character worth their salt will resonate regardless of age or other demographics. I'm no longer a child, but I still want to protect Maiko in P3 due to her retable familial struggle and her inability to understand due to her age, or Zenkichi's division between what is right by the law and what's right in his heart. I don't need a debilitating illness to sympathize or relate to Chidori, an outcast who finds solace in art and the only people who understand her pain.

it's a very nuanced conversation and I just don't see a right or wrong answer, the same way I feel about most anime nowadays. I think a more diverse party in general would be a dream come true (not just for age and gender either, I think it would be amazing to have someone who isn't just Asian or white, or more explicitly LGBT+ characters)! I just wanted to make a long post because the discussion is fascinating and enlightening, and 6, if they did an older cast, wouldn't be the first game to have playable adults either. What are your guys' thoughts?

Gonna be honest, I think one of the main reasons I like the boy Timothée is that he is talented and picks good projects and is considered a heartthrob so by all accounts I shouldn't be able to go online without seeing his face 16273x but in reality he is so blissfully dispossessed of sex appeal that I simply don't? He definitely has fans, but it's almost niche and easy to avoid, and being able to ignore his existence unless I choose not to is a prized quality in a man

I know they're serious but sometimes the antisemitic press attacks on Stefania were very funny. One called her "Stefania" Zahorska. Like they put her first name in scare quotes, as though that were the one she changed. Stefania is literally her middle name Assigned At Birth, which she'd been going by from a very young age. Meanwhile the Kraków Zionist press is always calling her "Pani Zahorska--to jest, Leser," which is MORE antisemitic

My SO: "So... do Vex and Keyleth work out? Because I vaguely remember that Vex-"

Me: "Which twin are you asking about?"

Them: "Vex."

Me: "The girl twin or the boy twin?"

Them: "Vex! The boy twin!"

Me: "Vex is the girl twin. Vax is the boy twin."

Them: "Bullshit! I'm being gaslit, Vex is the boy twin!"

Me: "Vex'ahlia, girl twin, and Vax'ildan, boy twin."

Them: "It changes every time!"

Me: "It really doesn't!"
