How To Show Emotions

Small penises aren’t bad, balding isn’t bad, being short isn’t bad, being fat isn’t bad. Physical traits are not signs of morality, and the sooner people stop mocking people for their bodies (yes, even when they’re bad) the better.

"He deserves it." "He's irredeemable." "He's a monster." "Punish him." "Kill him."

Wow. Way to show off that extreme ableism and victim blaming mentality. Homelander is extremely sick and was indoctrinated into a cult. He doesn't have a true understanding of the gravitas of his actions. He's legally "criminally insane". If they fairly tried him for just a single crime he's ever committed with evidence. The only possible justified verdict would be:

"Not guilty by reason of insanity."

That's not even grounds for "redemption" let alone proof of an inability to be redeemed because there's nothing to atone for when he can't even make sound judgement over his own actions. It's like with Bucky Barnes. He was brainwashed and tortured from childhood and can't be held accountable for what he did in that state of mind. There's evidence of a severe need for healing and what he's done under that state becomes irrelevant. When the very messed up U.S. court systems are legitimately less ableist and harmful and bloodthirsty than society at large. That's a real problem.

Homelander's not innocent and I don't expect this show to save him because his story is meant to be a tragedy. But he's not to blame either. He is what the world and humanity made him to be and they'll just make another if he goes away. Vehement hatred for him is just proof of our own failings as a whole and a personal rejection of accountability for those failings.

"We" make society. "We" fuck people up. "We" made him.

i love you polyamorous relationships, open relationships, friends with benefits/friends that have sex with each other, queerplatonic relationships, friendships that have some weird queer element to it, relationship anarchy, staying single and i love anything that doesn't match what society considers "normal"

i think we can reframe "gifted kid syndrome" as another form of "peaked in high school..." like i genuinely don't mean this with derision but sometimes we have to move on... chin up girl, there's so many years ahead of you

(repost since this got deleted) Until we actually find out more about their background and how they met, I'm going to operate under the assumption that Alastor just sort of found a newly-fallen Vox on a street corner one day and scooped him up and took him home like a stray cat because both the angst and the humor potential is absolutely peak.

They eventually fell out because Vox felt like Alastor always viewed him as more of an entertaining pet than a friend (and he wasn't totally wrong) and Alastor would rather drive away one of his closest friends than express his feelings for another person in a healthy way.

I'll fucking kill you, I am no one's friend, I love my toaster, he's fucking cute and mister shark said...

I'm going to kill myself

No emotionality

Just nonfiction, silly stuff yikes. Emotions...hm, well see what I experience.

:D

Ohmygod ohmygod I'm bored. Oh my god I'm so embarrassed oh wowwww..lmao.

Theres no audience. Lol

this is so dumb, but you can read the whole thing here (this is abt my post abt caitlyn hitting vi).

but, of course, because comparing caitlyn’s slap to a family dynamic makes so much sense. i mean, who wouldn’t think that a random act of violence from an enforcer of an oppressive system is just totally the same as a frustrated mom slapping her kid? it’s basically exactly the same thing, right? both have nothing to do with systemic power imbalances, trauma from being literally beaten by enforcers, or, you know, the fact that caitlyn represents the very institution that’s responsible for vi’s pain. but hey, let’s ignore all that, because clearly, your personal experience trumps the actual context of the show.

and the "one act of violence" argument? classic. i mean, sure, if you’re completely ignoring that caitlyn is not just some random person but part of a corrupt, violent system that’s actively destroyed vi’s life for years, then yeah, i guess it’s just a "one-off." totally. but maybe take a minute to consider the actual context of what that slap represents. oh wait, you’re too busy comparing caitlyn to your mom, because, obviously, it’s exactly the same dynamic.

Weird Cat Outside

I felt like this meme fit Val well. I realized it would probably make a better animatic though, so I had some fun with the ending for this comic.

Cat Vox ate all the bullets.

The Biggest Problem With Hazbin Hotel's Rehabilitation Mentality Is Trying To Make All Sinners Victims Instead Of Owning Up To Their Own Sins

I think the biggest problem with Hazbin Hotel rehabilitation mentality is that they focus in on how sinners are victim of circumstances rather than owning up to their problems and changing themselves. I think the biggest thing with this series is the fact that they think the problem is society instead of someone's own issues how they got into hell.

One of the first indications of this bs is making it out that Lucifer and Lilith were just misunderstood dreamers were against a strict ignoring that they caused sin in the world and caused help humanity's downfall. But the narrative ignores that fact and tries to treat them as victims of heaven, so we can have Lucifer as a misunderstood sad boy instead of how in the Bible he was jealous of humanity and wanted to bring it down with him due to God's love for them. A misunderstood sad boy wouldn't do this type of shit and Vivziepop selling it a load of it.

I know this is going to be controversial but I think Angel Dust is hindered as a character but not focusing on what got him into hell. And it wasn't just the drugs and sex, because he did kill people and some of them probably didn't end up in hell. So just imagine him being sent to heaven and his former victims recognized him for his crimes and until now showed repentance. However, the narrative even then doesn't focus on that fact but the idea he's a total victim and doesn't show part of his way to redemption is get his life back together and admit he's done shit where he wasn't the victim but the victimizer. One could say he was put through that life, but then again show his sister is in heaven and that she chose a life of virtue and made it. So, he has no excuse of his dad or brother getting himself into hell except himself and he needs to work on it. Even if he's a victim to Valentino, he still is a victimizer in someone else's eyes who recognizes him decades ago.

And I am also going to say this the Extermination is used as a way to have all of hell be turned into pitied victims that you forget a lot of them are in hell for a reason. And even more they are doing antics that got them probably into hell like murder, sex, and other types of depravity. While not all sinners are on the same level, the exterminations as a whole just i used to make you forget that they are there for a reason and erase that there is a reason they weren't given a chance into heaven. Seriously, Emily herself called them innocent souls when in any other scene they are far from innocent and the reason why Adam is depicted as a one note villain is because they can't fathom the idea that maybe the Extermination could be used to cull the worst sinners or something.

I think the biggest problem with Hazbin Hotel's every sinner is really a victim it comes ironically counter to finding redemption. A show which Vivziepop says she inspires from but she completely misses the point is Bojack. She says she's watched it but the biggest point of the show just because you are the victim doesn't give you an excuse to act like a total jackass to others and not own up to your mistakes. The problem is Habzin Hotel never lets anyone own up because they have to play victims, especially any character favored by Vivziepop. Redemption doesn't come from seeing yourself as a victim, but recognizing your own mistakes and how to reform from them. And frankly I didn't see Angel Dust want to reform from his mistakes, but just want a home away from Val. The problem is that Hazbin Hotel is about enforcing victimhood instead of owning up that you did bad things and need to change. An excuse for your behavior is still not fully an excuse and you need to own up to your actions.
