i keep coming back to 'i was a functioning alcoholic til nobody noticed my new aesthetic' because i do distinctly remember conversations about how taylor seemed to be drinking a lot more and getting drunk at like every awards show she went to. and those conversations were coming from a place of concern and of hoping that she was alright and that this wasn't a problem.

so to then say 'ugh i can't believe no one noticed this problem i had' when i know that people definitely did, and on the same album say that fans who are genuinely concerned about a new relationship that you are in are just 'bitching and moaning'? what do you want from them? you're talking about so many people who do at least believe that they are coming from a place of care and concern, and you are totally dismissing them on both ends of a scale!

not to mention that her implying that since nobody (???) was noticing her ~aesthetic~ drinking problem she just stopped having it is a bit of a kick in the teeth to people who do have drinking problems and can't just stop having them, since that's not how it fucking works.

Seeing a lot of jubilation over the resignation of Boris J, which is all very understandable and correct - I'm as glad as anyone that he's on the way out, albeit disappointed it isn't at the end of a lamppost - but I worry too many people are thinking this is some kind of victory, or that things are going to improve somehow.

On the contrary, the scum-rising scramble to replace him already seems to be focusing quite heavily on trans rights, with multiple contenders coming out swinging with transphobic rhetoric and homophobic dogwhistles, including multiple euphemistic references to 'traditional values' and 'protecting women and children', not to mention the racism and classism that's endemic to the party.

Also something I worry is being lost in the celebration: the next PM will be chosen by tory party members alone, roughly 0.3% of the UK population. This article gives a very good (if distressing) breakdown of that <200k people (the bbc actually suggest 160k, other sources are closer to 180k); they are 97% white, 70% male, nearly 60% live in London, 40% are over the age of 65 (the average age is 57), they are disproportionately wealthy, pro death penalty, anti youth, overwhelmingly suppport brexit (two thirds supported no deal brexit). The next leader of the UK will be decided by a miniscule, but fervently right-wing and bigoted group of people who have paid money for the opportunity. The next general election is potentially 2 and a half years away. That's a long time in which to enact an inordinate amount of damage.

All of which is to say, I too am glad that Johnson is gone; but he will fall into after dinner speaking, and his old 'journalism' jobs, and an inevitable book deal and tv appearances. And his replacements in government are potentially as dangerous, and the fire isn't out it's still raging, and now is not the time to be complacent, particularly in support for marginalised peoples and particularly trans people. Things are still fucked, this hasn't unfucked anything, it's a sideshow to the overall circus which is the current landscape of UK politics and the steady erosion of democracy

The moral of the story. Kill off EVERYONE. Including the standards you dont have. No matter the cost.

You know, the more news I hear about AI art, the more I think I should just, stop posting online.

[assassyart]

Odd question.

Who would you say was more unfairly sidelined?

Angela Cross, Sasha Phyronix or Talwyn?

Hmm. That's an interesting one. Sure, I'll bite!

I guess this may be a bit controversial, but I don't really think Angela was "unfairly sidelined" at all. She had her place in the story in Going Commando, a prominent one at that, and despite me thinking her arc kinda sucks in GC, it doesn't erase the fact that her character was basically done after Going Commando. Her one goal was to stop Fizzwidget Qwark from releasing the crazy Protopet.

It's only now with ACiT and RA that Angela actually serves a purpose beyond Going Commando (and even saying that is a stretch, considering the purpose as of right now is just a mix between "where did she go?", "is she a lombax?", and the fact she is presumably with max apogee). She was never *intentionally* sidelined, in my opinion.

Overall, she was just a fan-favorite side character until they accidentally messed up with the whole "last Lombax" thing, and she didn't really seem all that important to the main characters beyond being a girl Ratchet thinks is pretty and wants to impress lol.

The other two, on the other hand... they both have it pretty bad.

Sasha is never brought up after Deadlocked's intro scene until the comics, post-ACiT. Even in the comics, Ratchet and Sasha's relationship is barely touched on, so we don't really have any idea of why they broke up besides that one site that claimed it was because of political differences. Sasha is treated like she wasn't important to the cast when she clearly WAS important to, at the very least, Ratchet. She isn't that important of a character to the story which is why I wouldn't be all that surprised if we don't see her again, but she was still IMPORTANT to a character and that alone means she deserved more than just an offscreen send-off in the comics.

It's like they specifically took Ratchet to a completely different galaxy so they could avoid past characters and introduce new ones, and OH HEEY WAIT A MINUTE, does this kinda sound familiar...?

Because it happened again. That's essentially the same thing that Rift Apart does. To avoid the elephant in the room (Ratchet's important relationships with other characters that would add to his hesitation with risking it all to go find the Lombaxes, i.e. Azimuth, Vendra, Talwyn, Cronk, Zephyr, Tachyon, etc.) they straight up just ignore having to talk about those characters by putting him in a position where they will never realistically be brought up— a different dimension, with new characters.

Despite Into the Nexus cementing Talwyn as an important character and RA being the sequel to Nexus, Rift Apart chooses to play it as safely as possible by vaguely mentioning her in one very easily missable dialogue that is, while cute, not important whatsoever towards Ratchet's inner conflict.

If this was the first time her character was treated like this, it wouldn't be a big deal... but this isn't the first time. She was (allegedly) axed from A Crack in Time, axed from Full Frontal Assault, had her role minimized in Into the Nexus, and was reduced to a credits cameo in Rift Apart. Anytime she DID have screentime, it was rarely spent developing her or her goals, and instead developing Ratchet's character and motivations.

Things do HAPPEN to Talwyn, but they happen so that she can be more relatable to Ratchet, not because it'll benefit her character.

In conclusion: sasha got the worst of it by being completely ignored until the comics because she was too cool and capable and will probably never show up again. angela isn't that bad because she still gets referenced and the door is still wide open for her to be included in a future game whenever IG decides they've had enough fun messing with going commando fans, but i do understand and sympathize with the pain of waiting over twenty years to see her again. aaaaand talwyn is a big ole mess but she's my mess so i love her no matter how many times they cut her from the games :D
