  • While I generally agree, I think it’s always worth keeping in mind that sexualizing every female character all of the time can make women and fem-presenting people feel unwelcome in our communities. It’s especially important to remember that when there’s a decent-sized group of cis/het men who consider that part of the point of fanservice - just look at the gamergate crowd.


  • I have very mixed feelings on this one. I found the main couple very cute and endearing, but the show seemed so focused on the comedy beats which never really hit for me. I love a good childhood friends, bodyguard/ward, or magician/familiar dynamic, but I was disappointed by how gag-focused this was instead of on the heart that seemed to be in there. I give the premiere a 3/5, and if people say it’s turning out amazing, I might return to it.

    Amazing OP, though. I’d watch that anime, lol.


  • There’s a lot of negativity in here and I want to share a different perspective.

    First of all, it is extremely, overwhelmingly obvious that your posts are satire. Looking through your posts, I found it basically impossible to imagine thinking you were serious, even if I had agreed with the things you were saying.

    Second, all of the criticism here seems to be about how folks are sensitive when it comes to stuff about modern politics. That’s understandable - a fresh wound will be sensitive, after all. But I think that “this kind of humor makes me feel bad about the world” is the sort of use case the block button was made for. A better argument against what you’re doing would be that you’re causing harm, doing things like radicalizing people or antagonizing oppressed groups, which I haven’t seen anyone argue that you’re doing. (If anyone here believes that chad is causing harm, I’m open to having my mind changed, but you’d have to explain why.) I don’t think “this isn’t how I want to react to awful politics” is a reason to make you stop what I’m sure is a cathartic exercise on your end.
