Hi plurk I am supposed to be writing about ancient rome and memory and architecture but instead I want to develop a thesis about Teen Wolf drama, so let's talk TPosey wank.
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
he really getting death threats???
sea change
oh gosh
🕷 kid.
i would not put it past the twoofs fandom
🕷 kid.
it makes me really very sad.
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
Or is that something that people have kind of overinterpreted in the rush to defend him from Sterek?
PETER
Yes.
PETER
He is getting death threats.
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
Okay athenadark said he wasn't!!!
PETER
based on what knowledge haha
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
she knows a lot about teen wolf okay she's very smart
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I mean she finds all those capitalism parallels to America that most fans don't have the intellectual capital to grasp
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
plurk pings plz
... Jesus fucking what???
PETER
See, okay, here's the thing.
PETER
A lot of people with horses in this race haven't watched the show.
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I haven't watched the show which probably makes it easier for me to enjoy the downward spiral that is the fandom
PETER
the person replied to is talking about how the show is missing gay representation because Sterek isn't there and I just
PETER
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
There are in fact canonical gay relationships on the show that aren't Sterek that the fandom doesn't care about, correct?
6LilacMimeLions
before i watched a few episodes of the show i thought stiles was the main character
6LilacMimeLions
i didn't know scott even existed
KɪɴɢLᴏᴜɪs'Hᴇᴀᴅ
i think watching the show made me more confused rather than less
6LilacMimeLions
i only made it about five episodes in
PETER
Yes, there are canonical gay relationships.
6LilacMimeLions
but now i know scott exists!
PETER
It's a corny little mindless show that is the result of a guy who does zero research
KɪɴɢLᴏᴜɪs'Hᴇᴀᴅ
it makes decent background noise while working on sewing
KɪɴɢLᴏᴜɪs'Hᴇᴀᴅ
i always need more shows that don't require my full attention to follow the plot
kuja defender
I'll take "Fandoms I'm glad I'm not in" for 500 Alex
kuja defender
(haha it works on two levels)
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
No it's really deep Scott is Zeus and earth
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
sorry I'm on athenadark's teen wolf meta tag
6LilacMimeLions
it's a show on mtv about high schoolers who turn into wolves
kuja defender
do they even play basketball or ride on top of cars while jaunty 80's music plays
KɪɴɢLᴏᴜɪs'Hᴇᴀᴅ
they play lacrosse
KɪɴɢLᴏᴜɪs'Hᴇᴀᴅ
who even does that
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
the californians
KɪɴɢLᴏᴜɪs'Hᴇᴀᴅ
also the show would be 500% better with 80s music
KɪɴɢLᴏᴜɪs'Hᴇᴀᴅ
okay that's true, lacrosse was the only team my middle schools in san diego had
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I didn't have lacrosse!!
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
Maybe it's a southern CA thing
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
6LilacMimeLions
she doesn't know what the pathetic fallacy is
PETER
I’m going to start with a basic explanation of how symbolism (symbology dan brown? really?) works.
PETER
ah thank you person on the internet
PETER
I had NO IDEA.
6LilacMimeLions
this essay is kind of amazing
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
the teen wolf meta tag that person has is amazing
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I highly recommend it
6LilacMimeLions
i like how she totally invents "traditional" symbolism
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
it's wonderful how they assume also that like, everyone who has different opinions is just a 101 level fan, incapable of analysis
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I think there's actually a post somewhere where they talk about this
6LilacMimeLions
you got that from the pamphlet that came with your tarot cards didn't you
6LilacMimeLions
She also has the ability to close the window, and it can be guarded (unlike a door which can only be locked.)
6LilacMimeLions
THAT IS NONSENSICAL
6LilacMimeLions
like how do you write that sentence and not immediately want to punch yourself in the face
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
6LilacMimeLions
It doesn’t sound like a big deal that a character be associated with stairs but it represents sexual desire traditionally.
6LilacMimeLions
you fucking made that up
6LilacMimeLions
thank you alex i suddenly feel much better about my writing and analysis
6LilacMimeLions
Rushing up stairs, skipping some of the treads suggests the perpetration of sexual abuse, rushing down stairs, skipping some of the treads suggests sexual abuse.
6LilacMimeLions
i can't
6LilacMimeLions
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
isn't it wonderful?
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I know it
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
the ultimate self-confidence booster
6LilacMimeLions
i think if i read this long enough it will, like a zen koan, propel me to a state of enlightenment as it eliminates the distinction between self and other through sheer fucking idiocy
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
that the point of scientology
6LilacMimeLions
the point of scientology is extract money
6LilacMimeLions
*extracting
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
yes but
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I did find something that compared anti-sterek to the actual Reformation
6LilacMimeLions
I’m going to make a weird but remarkably astute comparison here.
6LilacMimeLions
you don't get to call your own arguments astute, honey
6LilacMimeLions
also that was a horrible comparison
6LilacMimeLions
also i think her analogy makes her the catholic church
6LilacMimeLions
I DON'T NEED YOUR POPISH LIES, WOMAN
PETER
The implication of that link is that Martin Luther HIMSELF wasn't an asshole.
PETER
If you attack a person for their appearance, it’s bullying. If you attack them for their colour, it’s racist bullying, but bullying nonetheless.
PETER
Why should someone attacking you for your ship preference NOT be bullying.
PETER
I.
6LilacMimeLions
aren't they the ones who are like UR A HOMOPHOBE IF U NO SHIP STEREK
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK was that argument supposed to convince me of
6LilacMimeLions
don't...be a moderately important person in the protestant reformation if you're not going to be diplomatic?
6LilacMimeLions
idk that doesn't seem widely applicable
PETER
And I am posting this on their tags because maybe they don’t realise, maybe a little education will go a long way. But it is bullying and it will not be tolerated. oh
6LilacMimeLions
I'M MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE (fuu)
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
I know when I think of Sterek I think of anti-Catholic bigotry
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
Does this mean the TPosey wank is comparable to the St. Bartholomew's day massacre?
6LilacMimeLions
in her analogy she shouldn't care that sterek fans are being jerks, because they're wrong and being jerks turns people off from the cause
6LilacMimeLions
never stop your enemies when they are in the middle of making a mistake
6LilacMimeLions
or non-sterek fans?
6LilacMimeLions
which side is she on i can't even remember
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
oh she also reblogged a terrible post about how democrats are the real racists because the Civil War
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
which I mean is mostly just a terrible post but we can file that under "questionable historical parallels"
6LilacMimeLions
oic
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
lemme see if I can find it
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
And in searching for this post I realized they like Avengers I'm super prepared for long posts being wrong about Bucky b/c everyone is wrong about Bucky
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
I'm not wrong about Bucky, fight me
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
but actually I ran away from fandom bc everyone is terrible since MCU exploded
6LilacMimeLions
oh wow that's...special
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
What the hell is that post :|
6LilacMimeLions
well you see
6LilacMimeLions
meanings and context never change
6LilacMimeLions
"nice" still means "stupid"
6LilacMimeLions
for example
6LilacMimeLions
i mean obviously
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
basically let's use the history of racism/slavery in this country (she isn't American) as a political win button
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
because that doesn't trivialize it at all!!!
6LilacMimeLions
you have to be either dumb as an actual clod of dirt or unspeakably disingenuous to be reblogging that shit approvingly
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
well her ideas of America are based on Teen Wolf's intense capitalism metaphor
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
her what
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
Where America is Scott and we all know how she feels about Scott
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
teen wolf's what
6LilacMimeLions
oh my god
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
oh no I forgot you'd linked that before
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
yes ahahha it's my favorite
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
and I didn't make it through the whole post that time and I sure can't make it through now
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
it's so
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
wow
6LilacMimeLions
MANIFEST DESTINY
𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕟 𝕘𝕒𝕪𝕘𝕖𝕣
that icon lol
6LilacMimeLions
doing that "bugs bunny is the trickster god common to many mythologies, locked in constant combat with the forces of tradition (elmer fudd, daffy duck) to remake the world" thing is fun
6LilacMimeLions
when you realize you're being ridiculous
6LilacMimeLions
but someone here isn't in on the joke
ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ
yes, exactly
PETER
oh wow that politics post.
sea change
