💖 You don't have to justify the types of romantic relationships that you write or enjoy in fiction.

💖 To restate the above-- you do not have to justify your 'ships'.

💖 The types of romantic relationships you write or enjoy in fiction do not indicate your real life preferences.

💖 It's typical and valid to write or enjoy romances in fiction that contain more turmoil, darkness, drama and taboo than you would actually want in your real life.

💖 Fictional relationships do not erode your sense of morality or what's desirable in a real relationship.

💖 It's normal to imagine dark and unpleasant ideas in fiction that you would never want to happen in real life.

💖 Romanticizing the darkness, turmoil and taboo in relationships in fiction has been done for eons and it hasn't destroyed civilization or humanity's moral fiber yet.

💖 If you tell people that dark romantic fiction will erode their morals or is indicative or personal moral weakness it makes you sound like a Victorian era misogynist worrying over girls reading novels.

Some of yall have been sleeping on Crash for years and it’s my job to educate you

So hey, I made another analysis video, on Fran Bow this time.  If you guys could do me a huge favor, give it a look, maybe reblog it, spread it around, I’d be really grateful.

yes! i do like [problematic thing]! and unfortunately i am under no obligation to defend my interests to strangers on the internet. good day and thank you for your time

Look at the pure sadness in Nina's face after her hands crashed and she crushed the bird out of her hand qAq

no offense but some of y'all should really consume more weird media ok some of y'all are ready to clutch your pearls at the mere sight of the slightest offbeat concept in speculative fiction and this can't go on

You want more minority representation in media but if they have flaws its problematic and if theyre perfect theyre a patronizing mary sue. If they crack under the pressure of the conflict the author thinks that minority is weak and if they overcome the adversity they must be a neoliberal bootlicker who thinks real world bigotry is a matter of personal attitude. You want minority characters but if theyre a villain its violently problematic and if theyre the protagonist then we circle back to the very first sentence. If theyre a side character theyre being sidelined and the author is once again bigoted, and don't you know that every single minority character death is unilaterally bigoted, without exception? You want more minority characters but if their identity is a big part of their personality or struggles then they're problematic and if their identity has nothing to do with their personality or struggles then the author is tokenizing that identity for clout. You want more minority characters but every time theres a minority character who doesnt have every single experience that you have then you tell the author to kill themselves on twitter. You wonder why not even minority authors will write minority characters.

I would ask you to read Catch-22, but you'd just call the military base problematic.

ignoring the blatant homoeroticism did they just eat that shit off the floor
