"cdream ignoring other people's presence (most of the time ctubbo) when ctommy's there" moment
This was funnier in my head
you know that quote "when you have a hammer everything looks like a nail" bc that's how i feel whenever i have a lysol wipe in my hand
the whole "every piece of media is abt love" nonsense falls into a category of lacking media anaylsis that i like to call "escapism theorying". people will often attribute themes like love or escapism to a work if it has themes that make them uncomfortable or challenge them – and, in an ironic twist, use the idea of love or escapism as a universal theme to avoid thinking about those other, more challenging themes. often times you'll get a super surface level reading of a work that skyrockets in online popularity because of this sort of thing and it lends to this extremely watered down textureless analysis
"it's either about love or the absense of love" is so silly also. i could just as easily say that everything is about violence or the absense of violence. everything is about hate or the absense of hate. everything is about life or the absense of life. nothing means anything.
"okay but everything IS about ___" no it isn't! there are no universal themes! i'm trying to say that there are no universal themes! even the ones you like. even the ones i like.

vs
"This story is a tragedy because it was always going to end this way."
LOVE AS VIOLENCE VS LOVE AS SOFTNESS

I really gotta play more minecraft with people who like building stuff. I'm almost done digging out my 64×64 block hole in my minecraft world and when my fiance asked me what I'm gonna build in there when I'm done my brain fucking bluescreened like what do you mean build something?? I dug the hole!! Building is for smart people with good ideas!! I just dig!!
POV: You have a Minecraft server
AND WHAT ABOUT IT
IF UR FUCKED BEYOND RETURN REMEMBER HE BRINGS U BACK!
those first couple weeks after escaping a time loop have gotta be disorienting as all fuck. all those little cues that used to tell you what's about to happen are now triggers that cause you to brace for something that isn't coming. you have to relearn the permanence of death -- hell, you have reacquaint yourself with the entire concept of finality altogether. everything keeps changing but it never changes back and you keep having to remind yourself that this is normal. "it won't reset anymore," you echo to yourself, over and over and over, like a broken record, like you're still trapped in a loop, like someone who escaped the time loop but was doomed to bring it into the future with them
It's a unique type of frustration when you agree that a character is deeply flawed but other people keep missing what's actually wrong with them and assigning them new flaws that they don't even have it's like free my man he did none of that. He did a bunch of other shit tho.
i think it’s really amazing how total strangers who have nothing in common but their shared love of a work of fiction will come together across distances and dedicate their time and energy working collaboratively to build an extensive, richly detailed fanon that completely fucking sucks
you guys are so committed to being bad at interpreting things you’ll just straight up decide this post means the opposite of what i wrote and reblog it anyway
A lot of the comments and tags are just people choosing to misinterpret OP even further, but these two absolutely pass peer review
"cDream is just some guy 2 me" then pls why do u make him talk like an anime supervillain
#NOT TO MENTION HE LITERALLY DOESN’T EVEN TALK LIKE THAT.#he only does when he’s like. Planned what he’s going to say#he stutters and misspeaks like 90% of the time otherwise. He says moron and idiot like they’re the most vile slurs.#He has the lamest comebacks ever in most normal situations#He’s just some fucking guy stop making him type like he ate a thesaurus#Also stop taking c!Sam’s word as gospel for the love of god he’s not a girlboss he’s also just some guy trying to desparately rationalize#that he’s a good person and that Quackity doing torture was justified#Like yeah CDream did so much fucked up shit but he’s also cDream. Stop taking away his speech patterns and turning his personality to one#dimensional cartoon villain. And also stop saying it’s an apologist take or whatever to acknowledge that he has an actual character! SHRUGS.
