Some of you didn't read the text messages Stolas sent Blitz telling him that they could skip the devil's tango and just hang out or when Blitz said he calls him just to ask about his day AND IT SHOWS

apparently someone in the Pittsburgh crowd made Vessel uncomfortable by yelling something about his genitals while dancing and he stopped dancing because of that? if that's true and i catch this person, it's on sight! 🗡

"why don't we hate israelis as much as we hated russians when they invaded ukraine" - first of all, who is "we". It was (primarily) Eastern Europeans who carried the russophobia on their backs, I'm not letting you appropriate their contribution. And second of all, when were you stabbing russian immigrants abroad for the sin of being russian and vandalising their neighbourhoods with swasticas? Because all I remember is russian men harrassing & beating up ukrainian refugee women and children, and setting their houses on fire, while westerners were observing this with "omg brotherly nation forced into war by politicians. make peace not war #deep"

finding out that Jame Somerton was making six figures after posting that "I'm ending my channel because our patreon numbers went down" made me pretty damn annoyed!

Do you wanna know what I really hate about playing a game during its hype period? All of the dumbest takes about characters floating around. I saw someone saying that people trying to woo Gale are mostly straight and that he is the epitome of the white privileged male stereotype. I don't care how you interpret characters, it's not my place to tell someone how their analysis of a certain character is wrong, but man, the way some people jump to conclusions… just blows my mind.
Before you start, no, I did not pursue after Gale and I am not straight either. I will, later on though, on my playthrough as Astarion. And if you are that interested in the fanbase of the companions shall we take a look at the majority of Astarion's?

so um anyway jiang cheng canonically does not consider wei wuxian a servant—let alone “just a servant”—and does not treat him like one. idk where this idea came from but it is factually untrue.
in fact, jc repeatedly indicates that he thinks wwx’s station is on par with other gentry, that he likes the idea of being part of a pair with wwx, and even jokes with wwx, mocking the notion that wwx could be a servant.
after wwx was taken in, they were functionally raised as equals, and there is nothing in their interactions as youths that indicates or even hints that their relationship was master/servant instead of simply childhood friends.
and obviously wwx is not sect leader, so yeah, he is expected to defer to jc after the war, (and that’s not an inherently bad thing, that’s how leadership works) but jc lets him get away with SO much shit that Would Not Fly if wwx were a servant (or treated like one). if jc only regarded wwx as a servant, there is literally no reason to be as lenient as jc was with wwx’s loose canon tendencies.
i’m sorry, but there is simply no valid reading of their relationship where the dynamic of their relationship is master/servant. their relationship simply is not built on obligation, as much as they both try to act like it. this assumption undercuts a huge amount of context and motivation, leaving nonsensical character decisions and gaping plot holes. there is no mdzs unless they care about each other as individuals.

Imagine going on a fic that's tagged one ship and complaining it's not another. Imagine that fic being tagged with appropriate trigger warnings and then complaining about it including those triggers. Imagine complaining that characters are characterized canonically rather than your own personal head canons.
You'd have to be either stupid or an asshole to leave all of that in a public comment, but my vote is both.

I'm genuinely convinced the thought process goes:
> people who abuse children are horrible, irredeemable monsters who deserve to have their human rights stripped away and burn in hell for all eternity, no good person would ever hurt a child
> *tons of scientific evidence comes out showing that hitting your kids is basically abuse and does immense harm with absolutely no good to balance it out and in the worst cases it leaves lasting psychological damage those kids carry for life*
> but wait...my parents spanked me as punishment, but they aren't horrible evil people who deserve to die! I love my parents and they loved me, they're good people and good people would never hurt a child, and I surely don't have issues as a result of being hit, so that must mean hitting your kids isn't abusive
> the cycle continues, nothing changes, kids keep getting hit
and like I get it, I get it, but I just want to grab these people and be like "welcome to the complex reality most actual abuse survivors have to contend with every single day of our lives, it sucks, but since I've been through it I can give you the answer I had to work out over years of therapy for free; you are still allowed to love--and even FORGIVE--people who hurt you"
