#stop being haters

With the new Inside Out movie coming out soon I'm seeing a lot of reposted clips on TikTok of the first movie and I'm seeing SO MUCH SADDNESS SLANDER for NO REASON so heres all my reasons why we should stop shitting on Saddness because she's one of the best characters ever and I love Inside Out and she deserves better.

First of all I NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND THESE ARE NOT HUMANS. They're emotions. They're personified emotions, yes, but at their core they are emotions and can't fully understand or comprehend other emotions. We can see this when Disgust, Anger, and Fear are trying to act like Joy during the dinner scene. It's impossible. They can't relate to joy because at their core THEY CANT FEEL JOY. They don't understand how she works and therefore can't understand how or why she does the things she does. This is the same for Joy and Saddness.

Now lets talk about Riley. Riley is an 11 year old girl who's just moved from Minnesota to San Francisco. A very big change for an adolescent to go through. This is the ENTIRE point of the movie. It's hard to process your emotions at such a young age, and this is what the movie is trying to communicate. "Why can't Saddness just stop touching the orbs" "Saddness really pisses me off just listen girl" "Joy should just kill Saddness atp" SADDNESS CAN'T HELP IT. The whole freaking point is that its IMPOSSIBLE to supress your emotions forever. You can pretend to be happy all you want, but at the end of the day your true emotions are going to bubble up and explode. Saddness feels the need to touch these memories because Riley is upset, she misses her home and she's sad she will never be able to make new memories where she grew up. THIS IS NORMAL CHILD BEHAVIOR. At the end of the movie Joy and everyone else realizes she needs Saddness to balance everything out.

They are at odds the entire movie because JOY IS TRYING TO SUPRESS SADDNESS. RILEY IS TRYING TO SUPRESS HER SADDNESS. She knows the move has been hard on her family and she can see her parents are under a lot of stress so why would she add to that by telling her parents she's unhappy at this new place? This new place that seemingly nobody is happy about but they have no choice but to accept.

Did we all pass seventh grade English? Do we remember subtext? This entire movie is RIDDLED with subtext. I could go on and on about all the symbolism about growing up in this movie but that's not the point of this post. The point is to tell you that my girl Saddness has no control over what she's doing, clearly. Every single time she's caught touching one of the memories, she seems genuinely upset at herself and apologizes. She's subconsciously doing it BECAUSE OF RILEY. BECAUSE RILEY IS GOING THROUGH STUFF RIGHT NOW. GOD YOU'RE ALL IDIOTS STOP HATING ON SADDNESS

the way some of y’all are overly critical of punkflower is so strange to me….

[asharaks]

it is, i think, symptomatic of the way larian has built this brand: bg3 was always marketed as being mature (read: sexual), and that was one of the big draws for players - myself included! especially as media pulls more towards extremes, with mainstream video games starting to get increasingly graphically sexual, graphically violent, and the vogue for 'grey morality' becomes the norm, those boundaries get pushed, and it becomes more and more of a selling point.

larian obviously focused on this, along with the How Do You Do, Fellow Kids brand, the increased accessibility of game devs on twitter, and adopted it heavily into their marketing strategy, and are now pretty reliant on the horny gamer crowd for a lot of their audience, and more importantly, they're doing this on purpose.

which is how you end up in situations like this.

characters (white men) the players want to fuck get centred: they get updates, they get more content, they get favoured. halsin's gone from a side character in EA to a half-fledged romance option, to a full romance option: he shows up in the promotional material, is larian's poster boy for the sex scenes, he gets more content with every update.

now gortash gets more heavily implied situationship lines with the dark urge, because players are horny for him. nevermind that some people aren't playing that way, or that he was originally set up to be a lower-level antagonist; nevermind that if the durge's storyline needed expansion, it should've been with orin and sarevok and bhaal, or that it muddies the writing for the rest of gortash's arc + characterisation: people want to fuck him, so it gets put in the game. it's not even to do with karlach, whose quest so desperately needs expansion! it's specifically catering to the people who want their character to have a Relationship with the slaver, because they're either not interested in or not able to focus on strengthening the weak spots in the narrative: they're just doing things that will net the 'my favourite dating sim' people lmfao.

meanwhile, literal main character wyll gets his quest demoted to a subquest, doesn't get bugfixes, doesn't get a single unique romance greeting after 6 patches and months of requests. he's not a Horny character, so he doesn't get the focus: he's not a player favourite, so he gets nothing. it's just... so unbelievably, indisputably racist, and it's incredibly grim and disappointing to watch it happen in real-time.

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

I'm going to level with you, some of you are VERY confused about the difference between "being a hater as a sports fan" and "wishing death or harm upon sports competitors you don't like". They're categorically NOT the same thing

I think when they said Daniel was back I think they meant the back of the grid

ma'am

she-ra (2018) isn't about redemption arcs it's about healing through love. unrelated did you know hordak fans and catra fans can coexist without condemning the other-

OC Fanon Remus is just an untagged AU version of him that is part giant since y'all insist on portraying him as this 6-foot-7 monstrosity with the physique of a professional bodybuilder next to his fun-sized twink boyfriend who is teeny enough to travel around in his pocket.

I will never understand how the canon description of Remus as worn, thin, shabby, half-dead looking, greying, and pallid turned into this.

I hope the demolition lovers never reunited.

I genuinely hope that they stay apart for the rest of their lives and be MISERABLE.

[feddy-34]

not even trying to be a hater but it is genuinely funny how a certain subset of f1blr are head over heels for vettel while actively hating on max like......... they r literally the same im afraid. you would have hated red bull seb! he was winning just as much as max while being way more of a little shit about it!

if you find personal offense in people saying that the majority of RAMCOA victims are POC then ur weird. that's literally it. if you don't believe people who are constantly overlooked and demeaned by the government, child protective groups & law enforcement are more likely to be victims of extreme & organized abuse then you're. wrong. there's nothing else to it. in a similar vein; if you refuse to accept that POC voices are constantly put down in system communities. You're Weird. if you refuse to accept that cultural appropriation(and just. straight up racism) is frequently permitted in system spaces, You're Weird. the alter race & closed names debate shouldn't exist. If the bodies white; you're white. If you argue with that then you're Weird

God I’m so sick of JSchlatt haters being like “erm isn’t he racist? 🤓👆” “isn’t he republican🤓👆”

NO HE IS NOT

HE MAKES EDGY STUPID JOKES THAT ARE SO CLEARLY JUST THAT, STUPID EGDY JOKES. “Erm he still shouldn’t have said it 🤓👆” THE MOST POPULAR FORM OF “EVIDENCE” WAS SOME SHITTY THUMBNAIL THAT WAS CHANGED AND A JOKE SWAGGERSOULS MADE BE FUCKING FOR REAL. ITS SO OBVIOUSLY JUST A EDGY JOKE GROW THE HELL UP.

“B-but he’s homophobic/transphobic!!” THAT MAN HAS KISSED MORE MEN THEN YOU WILL EVER MEN OR WOMAN AND HE IS IN A PODCAST WITH A OPEN TRANS WOMAN. THE PODCAST IS SLEEP DEPRIVED AND HER NAME IS ASTROSIST, SHE IS AWESOME AND CLEARLY FRIENDS WITH JSCHLATT BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY WOULD BE THERE IN A FUCKING PODCAST TOGETHER.

“Well he’s an awful person/rebublican 🤓” ITS CALLED A PERSONA, JSCHLATTS WHOLE PERSONA IS THAT HE IS AN NEW YORKER ASSHOLE BUT HE ISNT ITS JUST FOR THE BIT. HE LOVES ANIMALS, IS GREAT WITH KIDS, ACTUALLY FUNNY, AND MOST DEFINITELY NOT A DAMN REPUBLICAN. ITS CALLED A FUCKING BIT. Okay he is from New York but I digress.

Anyway fuck JSchlatt haters who don’t know shit about him, I mean if you just don’t like him for his content that’s fine but to try and make him seem like a shitty person is just shit man. I’m a JSchlatt fan for life man🔥🔥

You know what, from Izuku's behavior this chapter I really do feel like he's still reeling in everything that has happened. And of course, he is not going to be exactly happy about it.

Izuku is the type that something will bother him for a long time. Even if others around him are celebrating, he's not going to be okay.

Of course, some of the fandom for a while seemed to act like Izuku was going to be so happy Tomura ended right in front of his face!

Uh, no. He wouldn't be. When it comes to failure and lost, Izuku feels that.

"Izuku is so heartless!"

Then if he is, why for the last two chapters he's been feeling upset? If he was a "heartless" person he would be cheering on like nothing happen.

But no. He doesn't do that.

Just because he's not bawling his eyes out don't mean he's not feeling that failure.

It's just something to me that this fandom...

Hates when Izuku shows emotions

Cheered on during his Dark Era when clearly he was at his worst, I guess mental health isn't important

And then hates when Izuku apparently "isn't showing emotions"

Like??? If y'all act this way with a fictional character, I hate to know how you treat a real emotional person.

Adventure time fans when you enjoyed the Fionna and Cake finale and don't want their miserable unnecessary nitpicky opinions on a silly happy cartoon ruining ur joy and love for the show:
