i wonder if x is so different from everyone else in the hero industry is because he has 0 affiliation to any companies. i firmly believe this makes him have much more freedom than the rest, plus there's no manager on his ear yapping their gums out on this-and-that.
x's freedom is shown a lot of times in trailers, endings, and the opening by him being in his "citizen" persona – which we have seen no one have unlike him – a work life that is outside of his hero work that makes him have a separate identity as people there, possibly, only knows him as the 'chill guy who takes all the sugar in the office' than the cool omnipotent hero x.
that doesn't make him obviously free from his responsibilities. he has two jobs where one he can slip away when it's dusk, and the other one he has to work for almost 24/7 that has no time in or out unlike the office job he has. of course, there's other heroes but he's top 1. expectations still weigh on him.
he's enigmatic because no one owns him. think of him like an indie artist with no label company and with the freedom to do anything except they're also stuck in the same system with how the work can take over their lives and the audience views them.
i speak on this in my opinion and belief, how x does every move it's like art itself.
i'm not invested in "harry potter was never good" conversations because it doesn't matter if it's good or not. quality does not positively correlate with socio-political praxis. it could be a really good piece of art, but if it's still supporting a vocal proponent of transmisogyny and transphobia, i don't give a shit. harry potter good or bad, who cares, its success is unambiguiously providing financial and social capital for a morally despicable person.
Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor
Edit for anyone reblogging this version there's so many links to groups/organizations/resources/fundraisers in the reblogs, please check those out!
I agree. With the live-action we're definitely gonna have a discourse around the race of plastic characters with people getting disappointed a certain character wasn't a said race.
It isn't impossible, we already had discourse around Cole's sexuality, so his race wouldn't be far-fetched to have a controversy about.
Sorry for being a downer, but i am scared for the ninjago live action movie, not because i care about the casting, but because i know it is going to upset people regardless. I’m afraid that the actors will receive unnecessary backlash for looking a certain way, which they literally cannot change
I know i’m being sensitive, but it’s kind of upsetting to see people get upset about the way the actors will hypothetically look.
.
to summarize: you have the moral backbone of a flatworm if your response every time harry potter comes up is to make it about your inability to give up a book
dear autistics who
white
low support needs
not need 24/7 support
can work independently
can pay taxes
language privileged
intellectual & cognitive privileged
who can fit in societal definition of useful & productive (yes, even if hard)
when fight back against eugenics & ableism, you NEED to fight alongside, fight with, n fight for autistics who
radicalized & POC
from places of world where there critically lack autism knowledge n support
visibly autistic
higher support needs
need 24/7 care
can’t work independently or even work at all
can’t pay taxes
nonverbal, nonspeaking, minimally verbal, without functional communication, or cannot communicate via language at all even AAC
w intellectual disability or cognitive disabilities
who cannot fit into society definition of useful n productive, no matter how hard we try
because we always are & always will be primary target.
because we most vulnerable most marginalized within our, OUR community, which you belong in.
because once they finish us off you won’t be spared.
if any of your friends still enjoy harry potter or the marauders, get rid of them, i don't give a shit how much you care about them, they do not care about you, they do not value your life, they would rather see you dead. GET RID OF THEM. THEY DO NOT DESERVE FRIENDS. FIX YOUR HEART OR DIE.
I know that a big part of Sokka's arc was to become a leader and he obviously proved that he can be one
But look at my girl Katara. She's exactly like her dad
She was born to lead. She went out of her way to prove that she can be known for more than healing and she just ended up being recognized as one
She is also a master waterbender, but I guess that's not important enough to get a statue
"Just pirate it!" Nope! Piracy still helps JK Rowling!
"But I'm autistic and it's my fixation!" I'm also autistic and once upon a time it was also my fixation. I have some advice for that here and over here.
"I like the aesthetic!" Go watch the works of Guillermo del Toro, or go read my post on copying HP's aesthetic.
"I just want to play in a wizard-themed setting and I'm not good at worldbuilding!" Neither was JK Rowling! In fact, her worldbuilding is so bad that you can probably do better than her without too much trouble! Also I made some random tables to help develop ideas.
Viv seems to want to be both edgy and progressive, but it doesn't work that way. Like, ya gotta commit to one or the other.
You can't just make SA jokes then turn around and have episodes about how wrong SA is.
Like if you're so afraid of the backlash, then either get a sensitivity reader or stop being pretentious acting like you're this beacon of lgbt rep when your writing and how you talk about trans men in private shows the exact opposite.
There's no such thing as a "progressive edgelord". Stop acting like there is, Vivienne.
YEAH I LIKE AI
(A)rtist's
(I)ncredibly good artwork that deserves to be paid for and appreciated for the time they put into it
Ao3 does not need an algorithm, you're just lazy
Ao3 does not need a 1-5 star rating system, you just want to bring down authors writing for FREE
Ao3 does not need automatic censorship, it is an archive, therefore anything can be posted
Writing or reading about something illegal does not mean the author nor the reader condones it, if that were true, you could never read a story involving anything negative
Purity culture is ruining fan culture and you all are fucking annoying
CONGRATS WRECK FOR BEING CROWNED KING YAOI THE 4TH!!!
we'll stick together, it's okay
just finished episode 9
What. The. FUCK.
"If tampons should be free, then so should my diabetes meds."
Yes? Yes they should be? Your life-saving medication that you need in order to live for a condition you were born with should be given to you at no cost?
trans women, i love you.
you were a woman yesterday. you're a woman today. you're a woman tomorrow. you're a woman forever.
trans women have existed long before those stuffy bigots sitting in a court room have. trans women will continue to exist long after they're dead and rotting in the earth.
"I don't like JRK but I still love Harry Potter"
You have blood on your hands
Burn your fucking Harry Potter merch or be burned with it.
I'm fucking livid.
Grief was a strange thing. He had always thought that it came in like a wave. Whenever he had read about it or saw it through a screen it had seemed elegant in its destruction. He knew, of course, that it was debilitating. But he hadn’t expected it to be quite like this. The hollowness that accompanied it. As though his heart and soul had been torn from his being, body still calling out for them but finding nothing in their place. It allowed the pain to echo and rebound within him. Compounding on itself.
And he still couldn’t quite comprehend the guilt that caused his mind to turn in on itself as well. The ‘why’ that would never be answered. Nice had taken his own life. Why? He would have been there for him. How much pain had he been in? To the point where he never reached out, never asked for help, hadn’t thought to lean on his shoulder? If he could even do that anymore. They could have run away together. Left Nice and Wreck behind.
Left it all behind.
But now he is gone.
And someone else had taken his face. Had taken his voice. His eyes. All of it. Keeping him alive when all he had wanted to do was rest.
The fight, the one he had looked forward to, a moment to reunite with his other half, was meaningless. The anger that had burned within him managing to go out all too soon, the grief that had come drowning any last embers.
And when he fell he let himself.
It felt like freedom. Like he was chasing after Nice one last time.
Perhaps he was waiting for him, wherever he had ended up.
And wherever they were at the end of this, they’d be together. As they should have always been.
You CANNOT separate art from the artist when the artist is still alive and producing new media to profit off.
So on that note, do NOT watch the new Harry Potter series. Do not hate watch it. Do not watch it because “it’s going to be my childhood remade”. I do not care. Do not watch it. This is a direct move to erase the original trio who have all stood against jkr.
I literally can't stop giggling seeing this. They know
IDK if that'll stop Li Haolin lol
Gonna be brutally honest. People who think that Nice and his nemesis aren't gay must be blind asf
You do realize Chinese censorship wouldn't allow them to be openly in a relationship right? This was the closest they could go with it. And tbh the romantic tension between the two was so obvious like come on...
so i might be a little obsessed
Btw, did Wreak follow Nice in the doomed yaoi death land or should we apply the "until I don't see the body he ain't dead" logic?
Bc no one mentioned that he died, not even in passing, nor did we see his body
