CALL EM OUT ๐ฃ๏ธ LET US BE SAFE
okay, i have a few messages on here so this is what i'll say.
there have been a few instances in this fandom, specifically writers for ellie/tlou, in which i have felt uncomfortable. these have ranged from being overtly sexual with someone who isn't comfortable with it, to just plain rumors, gossiping and bitchiness. however, in a recent event there have been clear displays of abusive behavior perpetrated by one person but expanded by others and others i use to call friends.
i have mentioned this multiple times before but i was in a pretty abusive relationship and years after that i can spot that out, even when it was subtle. becoming friends with a person you don't immediately assume the worst of them, but as things seep in you start to notice things. at the end of the day, finding out a friend lied about a situation sucks. but when you look at it deeper it sucks for a whole other reason.
there's a common tactic abusers do and they do it subconsciously. it's called DARVO which is Deny the behavior, Attack the confronter, and Reverse the roles of the Victim and Offender. this is very easy to fall into and believe but i vowed when it happened to me, to never take one persons side without understanding others perspectives of it. in doing this and finding out the chunks this person left out, me and others were alienated for doing so, calling us "untrustworthy" and guilting us into feeling bad about the situation when in reality a persons real actions simply came to light.
this post is made because some of the people know who they are and what they said, being silent and following along makes you complicit to that persons actions. i do think it's gross.
additionally, if your bad behavior gets called out and you immediately discuss hurting yourself/falling back into a previous bad behavior, you are engaging in an abusive behavior. no one should feel like they can't call you out on your bad behavior because you might harm yourself.
if anyone wants me to speak any further on signs of this, how to not engage in abusive behavior and how to go about it if you feel a friend might be engaging in these behaviors, i will be happy to speak on it again.
tagging this under the ellie tag because i stopped being mutuals with most in this tag, and primarily pertains to them.
i'm gonna be honest here and say that It baffles me that Mickey 17 didnโt land well with audiences...I literally don't get it. we always complain about hollywood being obsessed with sequels reboots and superhero fatigue and yet, when we get an original sci fi movie, it suddenly gets a lukewarm reception?!?! idk what went wrong but i'd rather have an ambitious and genuine sci-fi movie that takes risks than another generic blockbuster. who's with me
It really saddens me to see some writers or some of my mutuals not post about Palestine. I cannot fathom how you can see the reblogs of men, women, and children crying over their dead loved ones and not do anything. I donโt know if you simply donโt care or think your voice wonโt speak volume but it will. Use your platform for good, spread awareness!! But if you still choose to stay silent about this, donโt interact with me. You disgust me.
I think Iโm falling down a fucking rabbit hole of fanfic. Like. Itโs to the point where I want to date the โperfect man or woman or someoneโ and itโs all I read about but in real life itโs nothing for me. When I wanna have something that someone has that Iโve read about it makes me wanna stand on a fucking train track. Iโm being dramatic but maybe reading fanfic needs to stop. Or maybe I should stop looking in real life.
