Since I see this word thrown around causally on here, this is a reminder that the Darkling does not commit genocide. He’s a mass murderer, but genocide has a specific meaning.
Criticise him for what he does - murdering civilians, mutilating Genya, assaulting Alina, but don’t call him genocidal.
I think I'm having my Robert Pattinson stage that I didn't have when I was 10 and I don't know how to feel about it?
we’re doing marx next week in intro to philosophy and i for one can not wait to hear the takes from some great classmates such as
dude who sits in front of an NRA flag every week and talks about Liberty and how proud he was to serve in the army. (he’s the one who for some reason thought socrates was christian. guaranteed to voice his opinion at length about how evil communism is)
girl who wears a MAGA hat every week despite being indoors and on a zoom call. likes to chime in at least once to bring up jesus. i will acknowledge that she does make decent connections between what we’re discussing and the bible and she’s definitely getting participation credit in, but really you dont need to say “Jesus said that God loves us and we should be nice :)” every time. we get it. (honestly i think she might agree with the passages we’ve been assigned so im interested to see that happen)
guy who just fucking vapes the entire time and offers takes so nonsensical that the professor has to take a moment to consider what the fuck he just heard. (really just hoping to hear him go on about what he thinks aliens will be like. has happened before. very slight but exciting chance that he unironically supports posadism)

hey there LGBTQ kids who are also Christian/Jewish! If you feel like you’re disobeying God, questioning your faith, or feel wrong and dirty for loving who you love, there’s this fantastic site I found today called hoperemains that accurately and thoroughly combs through scripture and its (many) mistranslations, validates your orientation, and basically let’s you know that you’re not pissing off God. It’s insanely thorough and after reading through every page on the entire site it’s super helpful. Go check it out!
PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF WHAT THE HONG KONG PROTESTORS DID/WORE! THIS IS SERIOUS. THEY ARE AIMING FOR THE FACE.
i could never be allowed to time travel because i would try to introduce medieval peasants to scented candles and be executed as a vvitch
Leigh: I'm gonna make a dark edgy universe with ongoing genocide on witches for centuries. It'll be like the Avatar but the elements of the four nations are: Nazi Witch Hunters, Persecution, Prison camps to torture and experiment on witches, and Slavery.
And then, I'm gonna make a character who fights back, creates a safe space for witches, finds a way to make them indispensable to the king, and plans to put an end to the ongoing genocide.
Readers with functional braincells: Is that your hero?
Leigh: Hero? No! Oh God, no!!! Where did you get that impression??? He's the VILLAIN with a capital V!!! Ugh, I guess I'll have to add more nonsensical mustache twirling evil villainous visuals to make it clear. Maybe throw in a black cape and shadow magic into the mix while I'm at it.
Readers still refusing to shut their brain before reading YA: So what do your heroic leaders want?
Leigh: Its really brilliant and subversive actually! Get rich quick hustles for money. Housewife to the first boy to talk to her. And inherit a royal title from his father.
Readers refusing to kill their reading comprehension: So what about the persecuted witches?
Leigh: What about them? Oh...maybe I'll make up magic cocaine that's highly addictive to the witches and overworks them to death to speed up the genocide now that the horrible evil villain advocating for them is dead and modern technology renders grisha useless anyway. No point in letting them just live am I right? xoxo grimdark edgelord girl
people really go “I want a story where the female lead...” and then say something that already happened on the cw’s “crazy ex girlfriend”
