I was minding my own business playing minecraft when something went "BZZ" right next to my ear and flew into my hair. This is NEVER good, but then I discovered it was a Fucking Wasp, and things took an abrupt right turn into shitsvillle… -R
But the thing is, a bug doesn't wanna be in your hair ANY more than you want the bug in your hair. They can't move very well, and the human the hair is attached to normally starts freaking out and swatting them, which is bad. So, despite our differences, we had similar goals… -R
I tease out the lock of hair the wasp is stuck in and it starts regaining its footing, but it's not flying. I gently grab it in a tissue, check the rest of my hair for Bonus Wasps, then carry it outside, at this point worried that my frantic swatting might have injured it… -R
I unfold the tissue and find the wasp cleaning its antenna. It wiggles its butt a couple times, then flies off into the sunset.

I didn't squish it. It didn't sting me in the face.

Long story short, I'm not sure which one of us owes the other a life debt now

-R

I've been listening through the hobbit audiobook and it's really helping me collect my thoughts on the problem I had with the movies, which is that all the characters are sort of reworked to be more sympathetic in ways that undercut the chaos of the original book -R
Thorin isn't Tiny Aragorn and his being a selfish dickhead in the leadup to the Five Armies isn't the result of a dragon-induced heel-turn, he was basically ALWAYS like that but never had any actual power or leverage to back it up -R
and Bilbo stealing the Arkenstone is contorted into very twisty knots to make it an act of heroic concern for his friend rather than a bit of petty fuck-you-ness after getting sent alone down a dragon tunnel for the fourth time -R

lovely day to remember that trans rights are human rights, trans people deserve dignity and autonomy over their choices, none of this is up for debate, and trying to scapegoat a vulnerable population to further a transparent agenda is ugly and embarrassing 😘 -R
there is something very funny about how TERFs are so dedicated to enforcing the gender binary that they've circled back to the pre-feminist "every single woman is weaker than every single man and it is her fate to be crushingly victimized and powerless forever" -R
"no no we're very feminist we believe" *checks notes* "women are weak and" *checks footnotes* "femininity is a curse" -R

I think the best evidence for "people don't really know what they want and creators shouldn't just give what they're asked for" is what dropping entire seasons of TV at once is doing to us -R
"I want to know what happens next NOW" is the kind of question that forms the backbone of a lasting fandom. Incremental buildup of narrative and speculation on future development reinforces fan spaces and builds communities that can and do outlast the series finale. -R
Dropping an entire season at once may give the instant gratification fans exactly what they're asking for, but it actively sabotages the possibility of fan discussion. Anyone who can't binge the whole thing right away will AVOID fan spaces due to the spoiler saturation -R

There's a pattern I've observed in fandom that makes me really sad, and it's that a media property will be absolutely beloved for being groundbreaking or exciting or just really fun, and then about a year or two later all that enthusiasm violently reverses into shame -R
Not quiet shame, either - loud, aggressive, must-be-on-the-Not-Cringe-Side-of-history shaming. And like any cycle of bullying, it becomes self-reinforcing - unabashedly enjoying it puts a target on your back from everyone trying to prove how cool and cynical they are -R
Joke's on the rest of you, I made the Star Wars Prequels 1/7th of my personality

sometimes I wonder why Encanto's ending didn't quite give me the warm and fuzzies it was clearly designed to do and then I remember not a single human being apologized to Bruno -R
Which is kind of indicative of something I observed in the movie overall that just didn't quite gel with me – which was this feeling that the resolution was the family overall saying "don't worry, we loved and valued you this whole time" -R
which is nice, sure, but for me that wasn't a question. Mirabel's family can love her without being GOOD for her. Her primary grievance was being excluded, ignored, minimized and shoved in a closet out of everyone's way. "We love you" doesn't undo or even acknowledge that. -R
