when the objectively bad person has traumatic and honestly reasonable reasons for why theyre like that but it doesnt excuse their actions and only serves to make them more tragic as a character
quick protip: if someone is crying or freaking out over something minor, eg wifi not connecting, can’t find their hat, people talking too loud, do NOT tell them how small or petty the problem is to make it better. they know. they would probably love to calm down. you are doing the furthest possible thing from helping. people don’t have to earn expressions of feelings.
the vees are yapper4yapper4yapper and radiovees could never work because alastor's social battery is simply not equipped to handle this all the time. i will die on the hill that "aggressive charisma" is a behavior alastor performs, not who he is, and in reality his tolerance for other people's unhinged ranting (val), offensively empty chatter (velvette), and mile-a-minute hyperactivity (vox) is so so low. he barely gets through charlie's relationship woes and he cuts people off multiple times with the painfully bright, pushy personality he only pulls out when he wants them to shut the hell up and/or just give him what he wants already. in mundane social settings he's much more reserved. so i don't think he would be able to handle living with all three of the vees together, 24/7, the way they seem to, but you know who'd fit in perfectly? lucifer
i for real need people to understand how upsetting it is that arcane said, "the revolution never mattered."
arcane said, "trying to actively bring about systemic change is both wrong and futile."
arcane said, "the only moral way to become unoppressed is to simply do mutual aid, and wait for your oppressors to decide to give you rights after a suitably high-profile child death and/or foreign invasion."
arcane said, "to resist or raise arms against your oppressor makes you as bad as them. it is the duty of the victims of violence and oppression to break the cycle of killing."
pro-abortion. pro-divorce. i believe we have the god-given right to give up
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.

You're stressed? Why dont you get high for me so you can be vulnerable and easy to manipulate while I fuck you better? The weed will make you warm and fuzzy and I can fuck all of the bad thoughts out of you head so you'll just feel fuzzy and not have a single important thought!
Lines of thought that seem Normal but are actually rooted in extreme puritanism:
-Seeing the nude human body is inherently traumatic -Sex scenes in art are pointless -Wearing kink-related clothing in public is the similar to performing a sex scene in front of unwilling participants -Depicting female characters expressing sexuality is always degrading -People's sexual fantasies are always an endorsement of the behavior they want to see in real life -Sex work is more traumatic and coercive than other types of work The goal is to treat sex as just another thing people do. That is a much healthier attitude than hiding it! It's not uniquely traumatic, it's not weird to talk about it or include it in society.
You're not immune to being the bully btw. You're not immune to being in the wrong
