I can relate. No matter what I try to become, I always find myself crouching in the shadows with a bow.

I like to go a step further, and implant The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Anniversary Eternal Edition directly into my brain so I can be forever within the world of Skyrim.
I am transgender. Have been my whole life, but I realized it at 12. Socially transitioned at 14, physically transitioned at 16 (because you can't physically transition before then because doctors, shockingly 😲, fuckin' know what they're doing). The things I struggled with, mentally, before i began to transition at all, caused me to make attempts on my own life. Lots of teens succeed, because people won't allow them fucking find peace in their own bodies. Teens. Children. Killing themselves. Because of stupid rehtorics like the one you've just spouted. Fuck off with that same old bullshit paranoia and fear mongering.
Well, they didn't defederate. The just blocked piracy specific communities, not instances. The instances are easily accessible, you just can't got to the piracy communities on them, from World
Yo what
Y'all realize that saying things like "You've just lost a user!" or "Deleting my account!" or "This is now the worst instance on Lemmy!"... you sound like a Karen telling the kid at the register in CVS that she's leaving a bad Yelp review... right? Y'all seeing this? Am I going crazy here?
It doesn't only bother me for villains, I just had villains in particular on the mind. I get it though. I was just watching TV and Aquaman came on and I've seen a bunch of other superho movies on TV lately, so I was just thinking a lot about the tropes I see a lot, and that particular example was at the front of my mind.
I'd also recently scene Age of Ultron, where the twins had, in my opinion, a really questionable reason for siding with Ultron.
I also love writing fiction myself, and I have a terrible habit of disecting just about every plot point I encounter in media to see what "makes them work", or not work, to see what I can learn from them for my own writing. Makes me awful overly critical of some things.
It makes sense, I suppose. maybe I'm just a bit jaded about villain writing. I just feel like a lot of the time villain motivation seems to come after the villain themself. Like the villain and their methods was created, and then a motivation for that was created to make it make sense. Rather than creating a motivation and then designing the villain off the motivation. Not all villains, of course. there's some pretty complex and fantastically written ones out there. But sometimes, there's a lot of villains where it seems the writers just REALLY needed some kind of relatable motivation.
I feel ya, man. I'm in the same place tbh. I hope things improve for you, I really do.
"The gutter looks at the stars too" is also a raw fucking line to have come from a tumblr post about the video where jenna marbles paints a seahorse that says "its seahorse time" on the back of a denim jacket
Is it him? My guess is him!
What?
