Some tags I got today on one of my posts about Mr Wines. I went 🤨and felt the need to comment. To be clear I'm not putting the commenters on blast but just have some thoughts about a broader societal issue.

The following statement may not be precisely what the commenters meant to imply, but it is a summary in my words of my takeaway from these types of posts: "Being a monster lover is soooooo weird isn't it soooooo weird to like a character that isn't human🤪op is insane for making this post"

Look at me. It's okay to like a character. It's okay to like a villain. It's okay to like a nonhuman character. I'm completely comfortable in my interests and I hesitate to use the terms "weird" and "normal" because of how subjective they are and how often an idea of "normal" reinforces narrow and harmful societal standards but... I've never felt "weird" or like I was out of my mind for liking monsters. I'm just sitting here playing with my toys. I'm proud of what I create and enjoy everything with sincerity.

I want to share that I'm involved in professional horror and romance spaces... and if you tell someone you like monsters, everyone will be like "hell yeah." It's nowhere near the most unusual thing. Sure, creative spaces don't reflect mainstream views but what a beautiful world we get a glimpse into where someone's fictional interests aren't a big deal and shouldn't be!

Don't reinforce rigid cultural standards for "normal" sexual interests even in jest (the original post wasn't sexual but the point is implicit). Kill the part of you that cringes. Do not diminish yourself and your interests because hiding behind a joke is easier than being "real." Embrace what you love and don't worry about anyone else's opinions or expectations. Feel something genuine. Be free. I free you. If you like monsters then hell yeah, me too, go have fun.

And also... jokes about forced institutionalization are never going to be funny. Not in 2014 tumblr jargon and not now. It's a serious medical and societal issue with deep roots in intersectional oppression, not something to joke about especially for something as simple and harmless as a post about enjoying a character. Like historically people have been (and sometimes still are) institutionalized for "weird" and "abnormal" and "deviant sexual" behaviors such as being gay or trans or disabled or being a woman who doesn't smile. Replace "isn't it weird to like monsters" with "isn't it weird to like the same sex" and think about how this language has been used in our society and you've landed exactly on my point.

"But R it's not that serious, you're making a mountain out of a silly ironic comment about a video game character" we should all be taking everything seriously! Censorship is bad right now and jokes are a slippery slope. Look at what they just did with banning "adult content" because of payment processors bowing to pressure from conservatives. I could not sell any monster enjoying content on some sites under their new rules and I've also heard of people having things as "normal" as vanilla YA queer books be censored. Anything that doesn't fit a narrow worldview straight out of the 1950s isn't "normal." It can and will get worse. The furries and monster lovers and kinksters are the canaries in the fricking coal mine.

since we never actually met the real masters and there's still no explicit confirmation of what they've been going through this estival i choose to believe they were all turned into baby bats and forced to act like urchins. dread masters of the bazaar except they all look like this

and they were all skittering around the flit with no memory of who they were and what the (missing) hell was going on. when the law broke they all collapsed in a heap and gave each other awkward stares before flying away with the unspoken agreement to never discuss this under threat of death.

also mr fires fell down someone's chimney.

Sometimes I get reminded that Namkuzu's fake title is "The Reliable Doctor" and I laugh because they are literally none of those things. They aren't reliable. They aren't a doctor. They aren't even 'The'.
