“Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”
— Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Shipping 5 Years Ago: hey guys let’s just ship whatever the hell we want and leave each other alone about it all right? cool
Shipping 2 years ago: Please write a minimum five-page feminist critique of your ship, examining any and all problematic aspects through the lens of queer and marxist theory, double spaced, 12-point font, MLA style citation, and wait 7 to 10 business days for council approval before shipping the thing

unpopular opinion but not liking a ship or even hating a ship doesn’t automatically make you an anti it just means you have a notp there’s a difference
this is an important distinction bc hating a ship means u can just block the damn tag or unfollow people who post it and move on w ur life –
being an anti means you feel like it’s morally imperative to make sure people who ship it Know That They’re Horrible People And Deserve To Be Harassed Because Of XYZ Reason Ship Is Problematic
difference between notp and anti is alllll in whether u think it’s your business or not if someone else ships it
I have very, very hard notps that carry views that I do not agree with at all, but I’ve just blocked those tags. It’s not my business, I can’t stand seeing some ships, I don’t go harassing them because it won’t make a difference.

I just want to reblog this and stress this: Kirby lost his entire squad. He didn’t lose 20% of his squad. He didn’t even lose 50%. He lost his whole squad. Look at what it’s done to him. You can see the death in his eyes, but he keeps on going. This is why Kirby is one of my favorite characters.

As you can imagine, those who had fallen this far had been so worn down
by their tortures in the seven other hells that they no longer had the
strength to cry out.Inktober Day 19 – The Akutagawa Siblings
