It always surprises me how many deactivated users there are here. And maybe most of them are the natural consequence of URL-hopping, but beyond those, the ones that intentionally deactivated--just the idea of actively deciding to terminate an account is so foreign to me.
I'm in the business of atrophy.
My Neopets exist, and persist, and are dying and continue to die for the last ten years my account has been dark. My penguin lived until the day Club Penguin died, immobile in its igloo, decoration among the puffles. My Webkinz stand in rooms which time refuses to allow even the dignity of gathering dust. My footprint stuffs the digital shelves of datacenters for sites and accounts I do not remember making.
I've made a horde of scattered exoskeletons, shells which I cannot even call ghosts because that implies a presence. They are husks. They are archives. They are records. I do not ever consider the mercy of allowing them to die.
I hate the trope of "I refuse to hit women!! [Gets decked]" cause it's boring but I do like the trope of someone in an RPG going "hey I don't wanna hit a kid that's kinda fucked up" and the kid just obliterates them
"i refuse to hit a woman!" = Sexist, overdone, does nothing to actually empower the woman or make the guy seem nice
"I refuse to hit a kid" = valid, even funnier when the kid whips absolutely ass in one go
The ONLY exception to this is Mob Psycho where it's a kid vs woman fight, in which the kid doesn't want to hit a woman because he has been told that only scumbags hit women. And then the lady pauses the fight to explain this is a different situation and he's not bad for defending himself.
Then he proceeds to whip ass in one go.
Tumblr please introduce polls, I think we could really revolutionize shit posting on this website by introducing democracy to it
Something I’ve come across often in reading fanfiction is this… pervasive idea that people cannot love wholly twice, and that if they’ve chosen one person, it’s because that love is greater than the other.
It’s not expressly said that way. It’s couched in gentler, loving phrases like “he’s never felt this way before” and “it wasn’t like this with anyone else.” It’s especially prevalent when there is a canon love interest to be denied, or a mutually exclusive ship to push back against, and it feels like trying to quietly dismiss a contrived love triangle instead of recognizing that different loves can share intensity and one might still not work out.
And I’m not saying it’s bad, I’m not saying it’s problematic or amoral or something that needs to stop, that people shouldn’t be doing this. I’m not saying that one true love is a bad trope. I guess I’m just asking, what are we afraid of?
Why can’t the character have felt that way before? Why can’t they have loved someone with their whole heart before? It’s the tragedy of love isn’t it- that sometimes it doesn’t work. Not that the love was missing or less, but that it was there, that it was whole and full and real, that it mattered… but that it didn’t change anything, couldn’t work out. The circumstances were wrong, the people were wrong despite their love, it was everything and that wasn’t enough. Love doesn’t have to be less or gone to recognize that maintaining a relationship for it is unsustainable. A character can leave behind a great love and find a new great love, and while love is never quite The Same between people, it can be As Much.
And I guess I’m wondering, you know, how it is better, to love wholly only once? “It was never like this with the other person” is surely meant to be a soft sentiment declaring how much greater this love is, but, all it does is make me wonder what is so weak about it that if there was an equal love, this love wouldn’t survive it, wouldn’t be chosen.
“I have loved like this before, and I’m choosing to fight for it this time” is surely not a lost cause to explore.
Long absense bc messed up joints but here’s something something I managed to pop out in about 8 hours 😘
