everybody is wrong about this topic except her. She is right for 50:36 minutes straight
Finally got this one out! Was hard to work on this amongst everything, but I hope it adds something productive to the conversation <3

It must be said I ended up developing a rather parasocial relationship with this textbook and its author so much so that I named my e-cig after him
Episode quite indicative of my level of pettiness (& uhm. say its pointlessness) My civil procedure textbook was written in a very I’m-the-biggest-dick-in-the-room mode and it's been a nightmare for every student ever and I took that personally

one must write a thesis with the same unshakeable self-assurance with which one writes the silliest posts on the internet

I wish I could put my brain to work on at least 4 different tasks or lines of thought. I wish I had 4 brains, there you go. But then again the only brain I do have leaves much to be desired so idk how 4 brains like this one would work :/

But the characters did this and not that -sorry who do u think made the characters do the thing and not that (& why)? A lot can be said about what the narrative is excluding too; and why do u suppose that by making the characters do certain things the author isnt trying to frame a certain worldview?

truly you reaches transcendence when you no longer have to concern yourself with enjoying a writer whose politics you don't endorse

Also! (But more generally with regard to lit fic) no doubt these books were meant to have pretty cartoonish covers, but by virtue of engaging with some very vague suffering tied to a ~bourgeois~ way of livingTM they end up receiving the litfic treatment
finally pinpointed the root of my displeasure with italian lit fic, and that would be: its blatant attempt to extract wonder from the trivial, with the driest prose at that, and failing miserably

if there is one thing i am sure of it’s the fëanorian propensity for making titles and honorifics derogatory. i just know that fëanáro somehow injected an ability to say the words “my lord” in such a way that it sounds like a slur into that bloodline

But! I’m left wondering what you all do irl. I remember one instance when a new guy was hanging out with my circle and at some point he said “I’m a feminist but I won’t call out misogyny in front of misogynistic men”. To that my best friend, the calmest person I know, kindly replied that he would
“Not all my subfandom”/“It’s not my responsibility” is actually a shitty response because it publicly places your own comfort within the fandom above that of the people being hurt. I don’t think it’s too much to ask that hateful opinions be stigmatized and isolated. But yea not my circus mesupposes
