i have rule i semi-adhere to for media criticism which is to ideologically meet shit where it's at (or where it's presented to me). i like to call it the "i didn't make you market it that way" rule--like, if lancer's union was just presented as a sci-fi setting, that would be fine. i don't expect all sci-fi settings to be communist utopias! but when the creators of lancer use the word utopia like 20 times & bandy around words like 'mutual aid' and 'post-scarcity' and 'anticapitalist' when describing it, then to me that becomes absolutely fair game. similarly if someone says 'stardew valley is fun i like farming :)' then i'm not gonna reply with a long post about how it's ideologically petty-bourgeois--but if they say 'stardew valley is anticapitalist', then they've opened up that can of worms and it's fair for me to point out that the worms exist.
this should have been me
It's like Scribble Jam in my stomach, MC Nuggets and MC Flurry are going at it
the thing is, if your younger self was a bigot or an abuser, u can't make people forgive you. but you still gotta forgive yourself, like that's non-negotiable, dude. that happens before u can even ask the question of earning forgiveness from anyone lese
hope my fellow USAmericans are having a good this!
Guilt must truly ask itself what it’s purpose is for it to stick around. It must justify itself, it must be useful. “Deserving” and “being correct” is not enough. Those are irrelevant justifications. Guilt must be willing to become growth and culpability or it must bid farewell
do you think anyone ever had their sexual awakening from the scallions from veggietales and now they really want someone to use them as a footstool or a table to play scrabble on and tie them up and beat them up and throw them out of babylon
Have a cute trans mousegirl. her name is Brie-Anna.
you know that part in the winter wonderland song where they tell the snowman that they're not married but he can "do the job while [he's] in town"? apparently the job is just officiating a wedding, i thought they were offering to fuck the snowman
