Bridgerton states from season one, through Simon and Lady Danbury, to season two, with the Sharmas, to Queen Charlotte, from the beginning episode to the end spelled out clear as day, that racism exists in this world and many of the characters of colors have been impacted by it in some way. And, supposedly, I'm supposed to believe that Marina, that Kate and Edwina, that they all had more privilege and power than Penelope? No, I don't think so, a lot of things aren't right with that statement.

Every once in a while I like to relisten to Diabolical to remind myself that RnS's source material is the silliest thing on earth.

@scyllas-revenge I just want to thank you for this! (This is becoming a regular thing, but seriously, it's that appreciated.)

I was actually CRAWLING like a wretched slug though the said WIP (yep, it's still Taken, Part 3 *sobs in struggling writer*), but thanks to your comment, it's gaining a little more speed today! Fingers crossed that kernel of motivation snowballs, 'cause I've had a very rough, low-production January, fic writing-wise.

Gentle reminder for everyone: EVERY LITTLE SCRAP OF ENCOURAGEMENT FROM OUR READERS HELPS.

Speaking of encouragement, let's have a look at that chin-rubbing action again:

Yeh gads, THAT SMILE. Makes it even better. I think my heart just started bleeding.

Okay--back to work now! :)

does the lost legends behavior of trying to retroactively make filbrick seem "not so bad" count as a sort of redemption arc

I wouldnt say so. I mean, even within the story the boys still end up grounded for the entire summer.

Which despite the "oh he was possibly proud of stan for half a second" I'd stay still spells out "Filbrick is an asshole"

like, genuinely. taking accountability for your actions in perpetuation of abuse and rape culture is the first step to changing that culture. it doesn’t make you a bad person just because you did a bad thing (unless you were intentionally trying to cause harm) but you have to admit you are not immune to accidentally supporting the bad thing and take accountability for that. if you supported george's statements on sexual harassment, or dream's sexual jokes towards minors, or sapnap getting paid money to stream on a platform which openly harbours rapists and sex abusers, you've been a part of keeping the environment that makes it hard for victims to have come out. if you started believing in anti-victim sentiments and harassed other abuse victims for talking about how it made them uncomfortable, you’ve supported this environment. if you assumed anyone uncomfortable with your streamer or trying to talk out against them was inherently lying solely because it was your streamer, you helped support an enviroment that fostered abusers.

and that sounds harsh, and I’m sorry. but it’s true. and to a degree, I think everyone in this community has done that with people at one point in their lives. it's very easy to be manipulated, but it’s also very easy to be wilfully blind, and that’s not something irredeemable or a permanent stain. you can change, but you need to identify in yourself what caused you to act like that and make a conscious change. it’s healthier for you and it’s healthier for the environment. if we want to avoid this in the future, we need to be proactive in calling out actual potentially harmful behaviour, even if it’s from someone you like. or we will continue to harbour mass amount of abusers.

most content creators are not abusers. most, to be honest, are awkward introverted nerds with social anxiety. at least, that’s what i've got from the ones my brother knows (and that includes some big ccs). but while they’re a huge part of it bc being in front of a camera instead of people is a huge draw, there’s another draw that attracts a less savoury crowd- and that’s the position of power. and unless you’re willing to listen and be kind to genuine, serious criticism of harmful actions, and ccs are willing to do the same, abuse and sexual assault WILL continue to be normalised in these spaces. it is not your sole responsibility, but it IS a responsibility to make sure to avoid that now you know the possibilities aggressively attacking any criticism can hide. caiti had to deal with people with her abusers face threaten her for speaking negatively towards him. do not let that happen again.

Stan: What kind of a maniac wakes up an hour early to write erotic fanfiction?

Ford: Me.

Y/N: Are there any shows or movies left in the world that you haven’t perved up?

Ford: No. That’s why I’ve started writing erotic friend fiction, using people at school and cryptids.

Fiddleford: Oh, do the janitor and the vice principal! I think they’d have beautiful children.

Ford: I did, and they don’t.

astarion stans who refuse to try befriending or even romancing anyone else are the most annoying mfs. "I only romance astarion I just can't relate to the other stories" really? you can't relate to gales deep self loathing? his deep love and loyalty for those he cares about? you can't relate to wylls kind heart and desire to always do good, even if it means he's miserable? can't relate to shadowheart blindly following a god, only to learn the truth and reinvent herself? you can't relate to lae'zel or karlach who were lied to and used as weapons their whole lives, but continue to push on even when they're scared? you can't relate to the overarching theme of authority vs autonomy???

it's not difficult, it's just people refusing to appreciate and explore the game to its fullest bc their manipulative sexy vampire is all they need(something astarion actually loathes being seen as btw). but ok, you can be boring and do whatever you want, but don't lie and say the other stories are bad, because they're not. it's simply a lack of media literacy and critical thinking. because to you, if a character doesn't tell you point blank that they're aware of their situation, it's bad writing. missing the entire point that victims don't always realize the situation they're in. keep in mind astarion and karlach are the only ones who got away from their abusers, which is why they tell you clearly and confidently about what happened to them, fully aware that it was abuse. whereas the others give only their tunnel visioned perspective and speak highly of their deity(not caring about themselves, wish to appease them for something in return).

don't get me wrong (seriously, if I see one person misunderstand me I'm going to lose it) astarion is a good character, but people who only like him need to stop acting like he's the only complex and well written one. stop crying when people with brains call you out for being weird about his ascended ending. the game isn't about him. at least try and show some respect to those who worked hard on the game. make an oc and try new things, i promise the fictional vampire won't care if you don't romance him one run. have a drink with shadowheart, dance with wyll, go to a restaurant w karlach, maybe then you'll calm down.

Uhhhh I couldn't think of a title, but here's the scene I've been working on in my Pollution Powers AU. I'd like to write more for it, and while I do have a few scenes in mind to write, let me know if there's anything in particular you have an interest in seeing!

———————————————————————————————————–

                 “Stay away from any syringes!” Ma Pines called after Stan and Ford.  The boys waved at her as they raced down the beach.  The day after a storm was the best to go beach combing.  The water and wind tossed up some of the strangest things.

                 “Heck yes!” Stan crowed, coming to a stop by a patch of black sand.  He dropped to his knees to examine it more closely.  Ford, however, walked past, his eye grabbed by a small, oddly shaped object a few feet away.  He picked it up and turned it over in his hands.

                 It’s like a dented cardboard box but made of metal.  Ford frowned.  I’ve never seen anything like this before.  What could it be?  The metal began to grow warm.  It quivered in Ford’s grip, like it was attempting to escape.  Ford’s eyes widened.  He quickly threw it away as hard as he could.  The object landed a foot away, exploding upon contact with the sand.

                 Ford winced.

                 I suppose I’m lucky that thing was wimpier than I am.  Nothing even hit me!  …Right?  Ford quickly looked down at his legs and arms.  Dangit.  At the beach, the glass was as ubiquitous as the sand, and he could see some slivers of classic Glass Shard Beach glass shards poking out of his skin.

                 “Great,” Ford mumbled.  He reached for a larger shard sticking out of his forearm.  Before he could grab it, however, the shard quickly sunk below his skin, leaving no trace behind.  Ford’s jaw dropped.  He poked at the unbroken skin.  It didn’t even hurt.  “Um, Stan?” Ford squeaked out.  Stan, still engrossed in the black sand, didn’t respond.  Ford opened his mouth to try to get Stan’s attention further but was interrupted.

                 “Boys?” Ma Pines shouted.  Stan sprang to his feet as Ma Pines ran up to them.  “Sorry, sweethearts, but the beach is too dirty today for you to play.”  She grabbed each boy and began to lead them back to the car.

                 “The beach is never too dirty,” Stan argued.

                 “Today it is,” Ma Pines said firmly.  Ford looked back at the patch of sand disturbed by the explosive.

                 “I think,” Ford said slowly, “you are correct.”

-----

                 Ford’s eyes snapped open.  The darkness of the room he shared with Stan was a stark contrast to the dream of that day on the beach.  There was a faint dripping sound from somewhere.  Ford dragged his hands down his face.

                 Not this again.  He rolled onto his belly to peer over the side of the bed.  In the dark, he could barely make out liquid dripping from the bottom bunk onto the floor.  Fantastic.  Ford grabbed a cheap magnet off the side of the metal bunk bed and threw it in the general vicinity of the bottom bunk.

                 “Wake up, Stan.  You’re having another fucking wet dream.”  The strange, bubbling snoring from the bottom bunk stopped.

                 “…Whoops,” Stan’s voice said.  His words slurred a bit, as they tended to when he was in his inhuman form.  Ford squinted.  Without his glasses, Stan was blurry, but his twin appeared to be in human form again.  At the very least, the dripping had stopped.

                 The slurring was likely from tiredness.

                 “You’ve been having those a lot lately,” Ford pointed out.  Stan was the one to dub reverting to his oil form while asleep as having a wet dream.  Ford, tickled, went along with it.  “Do you have any theories as to this sudden uptick?”

                 “Uh, Teach thinks it’s ‘cause I’ve been spending so much time in oil form, practicing,” Stan said sleepily.  “My body’s getting used to it as a normal thing or whatever.”

                 “Oh,” Ford said.  He laid back in bed.  “Well, you’ll have to kick that habit before we go back home.  Mom won’t put up with you making that mess every night.”  Stan was silent.  “Did you fall back asleep?”

                 “No.”  The bottom bunk creaked.  “I, uh, I don’t know if I wanna go back home.”  Ford frowned.

                 “What?”

                 “I don’t think I wanna go back home.”

                 “The day I arrived, you were going on and on about how much you miss the boardwalk and beach and…”  Ford shook his head.  “Why don’t you want to return home?”

                 “You saw how everyone reacted when my stupid power showed up,” Stan mumbled.  Ford winced.  Stan’s body had turned to oil in the middle of the school hallway while he was flirting with Carla McCorkle.  Not only did every student nearby begin panicking, but Carla also dumped Stan before he could get out a single word.  “And even when I was able to keep it under wraps enough to work in the shop and go back to school, everyone acted like I had the damn plague!  No matter what, everyone knows what I am.  And they’re never gonna treat me right ever again.”

                 “Rather hypocritical of you,” Ford muttered under his breath.  The bottom bunk creaked again.

                 “What did you say?” Stan snapped.

                 “You’re being rather hypocritical!” Ford snapped back.  “You speak of fearing mistreatment back home, but have no qualms with mistreating people here!  People who are just like us!”

                 “Okay, wanna stop talking like you’re a professor and just tell me what you’re getting at?”

                 “The McGuckets!”

                 “What?  I’ve never done anything to Fiddlesticks.”

                 “That’s a lie,” Ford scoffed.  “Before his sister arrived to be the new punching bag, you constantly talked about how he wasn’t ‘enough of a freak’ to be here.”

                 “His power is mostly being smelly and dirty.  That’s just what happens when you’re on a farm,” Stan said dismissively.  “I didn’t say any of it to his face, anyways.”

                 “That doesn’t mean he didn’t notice,” Ford said.  Stan huffed.  “But I was primarily referring to his younger sister.”

                 “Angie probably doesn’t even have a power,” Stan muttered.

                 “Why would she be here if she didn’t?” Ford pointed out.  “The Gravity Falls School for Contaminated Youth isn’t exactly a prestigious prep school, despite the administration’s best attempts.”  Stan didn’t say anything.  “I know you don’t really think Angie is a normie.”

                 At least, I hope you don’t.

                 “Fine.  Maybe I don’t.  But why hasn’t she used her power in front of everyone?”

                 “Not all powers are one’s default state!  I’ve barely used my power in front of people!  And I can’t imagine that the treatment from you and the company you keep is helping matters.  She’s probably too overwhelmed to even attempt her power in front of everyone.”

                 “Oh, so this is all about me spending time with Jimmy, huh?  You’re just being jealous?”

                 “No, this is about how you insult and degrade some poor girl after spending our entire lives defending me from the same behavior!  Though, to be quite frank, I do think Jimmy’s influence on you has been a major factor in your bullying!”  A familiar feeling spread across Ford’s skin, as though cold slime was slowly being poured onto him.  Ford looked down at his hands.  His skin had turned to glass, revealing the muscles, bones, and organs beneath.

                 Shit.  Not again!  Ford quickly scanned the room for something that he and Stan wouldn’t miss.  His gaze landed on a discarded cardboard box they hadn’t thrown out yet, which their latest care package from Shermie had arrived in.  Good enough.

                 “I don’t-” Stan started furiously.  Before he could get out any other words, the cardboard box exploded, leaving a black charred stain on the carpet.  “Did- did you just-”

                 “You know it happens when I get pissed off,” Ford muttered.  The cold, slimy feeling faded as his skin returned to normal.  Lights turned on in the hallway, followed by the sound of footsteps.  Ford quickly rolled over, facing the wall.  Stan began to emit loud, clearly fake snores.  The door opened, spilling light into the room.  After a few moments, the door closed again.  Ford breathed a sigh of relief.  The guards typically did the bare minimum, as was the case this time.

                 The light in the hallway turned off.  Ford waited for Stan to stop snoring so they could resume their conversation.  However, the cartoonish snoring continued.  Ford scowled.

                 Really?  Pretending to be asleep to avoid talking?  He closed his eyes.  Well, if he wants to be done, then we can be done.

[stansxemoxdiary]

I want to have a horror movie marathon with someone. Both of us cuddled up under a big warm blanket with a bunch of snacks, laughing at the cheap jumpscares and pretending not to be afraid during the genuinely scary parts while we hold onto each other tighter.

Eventually we're just giggling and falling asleep in each other's arms, still trying to tiredly have a conversation despite both of us nearly about to pass out.

[heyheyitsstillgay]

Are most Danny Phantom fans ace or are most ace people Danny Phantom fans. Idk. What I do know. Is that you can tell, regardless of site, that a fic is gonna be Really Good, if the author is a danny phantom fan or if there's danny phantom fans in the comments. I've learnt to recognise the ao3 icons of miscellaneous dp accounts there and u know what, we have excellent taste.

the amount of edmund fics compared to peter’s almost nonexistent fics ?? oh brother i might have to take matters into my own hands …

[thedevotionaltour]

even for period typical ableism it still drives me nuts for karen to go oh poor matt how can he deal and get around as if he hasn't been blind most of his life at this point and living on his own by himself as an adult for his entire adult life after college and has also lived in the city his whole life like girl use your damn brain he can get around by himself just fine. good god. like take five seconds to use your brain. literally adult man who lives by himself if nothing else that should tell you he is fine and when he needs assistance has the knowledge and ability to go get it you act as if he can't even walk on the sidewalk by himself. he literally shows up to work by himself. it drives me up the wall sometimes how she sees proof of him functioning fine independently literally witnesses it on the daily and still thinks these things. like again foggy isn't great either bc again the period typical ableism (and just general ableism in the world outside of this period as this is a common attitude of viewing disabled people as helpless and unable to function even if they are people who do live independently (and im not touching on people who do need extra support and caretaking in this context. as this post is about these characters in the context of a story. so im talking about what we see there instead of any truly meaningful nuanced way) but the writing here is like. Particularly this way due to the time) he has a modicum more of understanding that matt is literally a capable grown adult man. literally told karen matt is a big boy who can handle himself and then karen went b-b-but you forget he's blind as if foggy hasn't known him for years of his life and is his best friend like PLEASE SEE HIM AS AN ADULT. I AM GOING TO GO INSANE. PLEASE RESPECT HIM IF YOU LOVE HIM SO DEARLY. AND EVEN IF YOU DIDN'T. JUST RESPECT HIM AS A PERSON!!!!!!

[ladyalicentshightower]

I think people overestimate how feminist team black is. If someone brings up how Baela should be the heir to Driftmark, it's always "she would've been Queen if not for the Greens!", ignoring that 1, she would be Queen consort, not a Queen in her own right, and 2 she has a legitimate claim in her own right to Driftmark. Team Black's goal is to crown Rhaenyra, but Rhaenyra becoming Queen isn't a win for feminism because it does nothing to dismantle the rest of the patriarchal system that exists in Westeros. From what we've gotten so far, it reads that Rhaenyra wants to be the exception and not the rule. Rhaenyra has made a lot of bad political decisions, which means she can't acknowledge Baela's claim because it would weaken her own claim (blatantly admitting her eldest sons are illegitimate would not end well for her to say the least). So she betrothes Jace and Luke to Baela and Rhaena to kind of atone for that, like as a consolation prize Baela will be Queen and Rhaena will be lady of Driftmark, neither of them would hold either title in their own right. It's good matches because the kids like each other and will treat each other well, but it's not a feminist win or a feministic liberation. It's usurpation, usurpation that takes place because Rhaenyra has to do damage control after having illegitimate children and after a serious of bad political decisions (both hers and her fathers, Viserys is the arbiter of this entire mess). To me, Rhaenyra is very reminiscent of Mary Queen of Scots, I can see a lot of elements drawn from Mary's history in Rhaenyra's story and character, down to their sons eventually taking the crown they failed to claim/keep.
