Deleted Tumblr Again
Jan. 4th, 2020 04:31 pmNot my account, just the app off of my phone again, I'll probably reinstall it when I finish up a request or something. Tumblrs just one of those things that used to be a whole lot of fun, when there were fan comics and fun meta and short ficlets written by cool authors. Now its just in fighting, all the comics are either discontinued or moved elsewhere.
The meta is all about how liking this sort of story is immoral or how this character is evil and that one stole all this story beats from that character and so you're immoral for liking your favourite more. And heaven forbid you like more than one character equally, because you're not going to find a blog that doesn't passive aggressively bash the hell out of at least onw of them. The only reason I even still use the thing is to interact with the handful of friends I've made and the few writers amd artists that haven't gotten sucked into the bullshit yet.
It's exhausting, and far from the source of inspiration it was even only a year ago.
I have an idea of what caused all the crap to float to the surface there, and I hope it washes it away eventually too. Because right now it seems to he a breeding ground for assholes who want to be angels and those are the worst kind of assholes.

Comics Rant
Nov. 4th, 2019 03:36 pmI'm so tired of comic books, and its the weirdest thing because I still love all the characters, but the story's? God, everything's just so edgy. And as much as I enjoy some sadness and angst and whatever, these comics are being edgy just for the sake of being edgy. There's no meat to any of the stories to make them at all interesting. They've become edgy and boring at the same freaking time.
This character dies and that character has edgy amnesia - like it's really the edgyest amnesia arc ever, and another character turns into a whimy, whiny asshole.
Even my favourite comic, that's actually gone the opposite way, and become softer, and something I'd usually really enjoy, I haven't picked up in months. Because if the writer of the other edgy book decides to do something edgy with my favourite character, that will probably come before the plans for his own writer.
Even the comic based TV show I enjoyed has gone the way of the bored edge.
Time to crawl back to anime and back issues for my entertainment and await the next reboot or rebranding or whatever the dumbasses in charge are going to do to fix the falling sales.
