Some very eloquent notes on violence as a necessity for resistance.
There is no paradox of tolerance, because tolerance is not a matter of ethics. It's a peace treaty - an agreement that only covers the people who abide by its rules.
And for cis white guys who are always trying to figure out how to be an ally without talking over marginalized people, without reshaping the issue to be all about you - this guy shows how.
His tactics don't work for marginalized people. They can't get away with that.
You wonder if Cell told Pac he could choose which leg he'd lose knowing damn well it was almost worse than not giving him a choice at all? Knowing if he made Pac see himself as complicit in his own mutilation, he'd be scarring Pac's mind almost as badly as the attack itself?

take a screenshot to see your fate on quesadilla island.
predator animal falling in love with prey animal. You really love to see it.
you’re skittish, of course, and yet you still tilt your head. brush everything aside. give me space to clamp my jaws down on your throat. make the sweetest sounds, too. squirm not to get away but get closer. i could tear you apart. i should tear you apart. you should not be offering this so easily. itching for the slice of teeth that are too sharp. something, somehow, that soothes & delights. doesn’t send you running. why aren’t you running? you should not let me take and take and take. but you do. i could bleed you dry. and i want to. i want to feel your pulse get weaker and weaker while i drink my fill. feel you grow cold beneath me. don’t i?
(why don’t i want to?)
Just rewatched Kitbull (cried my eyes out, again) and not to make everything I watch relate back to my current interests but. This did remind me of Fit & Pac, and also Fit & Tazercraft.
Nothing like a trip to the uncanny valley to boost your mood
i genuinely don't know how to explain to you guys that "if they knew wilbur was shitty because wilbur was shitty to them too and didn't mention it earlier they're complicit" is literally just victim blaming. like. i'm sorry. i don't know what to tell you
i know i said i was stepping back but i'm just repulsed at a lot of shit i've been seeing here. a lot of victim blaming rhetoric and a lot of cryptoterf "assume all men = evil" shit. it's actually fucking repulsive and i've been trying to be civil and not cause fights because i didn't want to distract from shelby but it's getting fucking nasty and i'm real fucking sick of seeing it
you can call out abusers and criticize fandom misogyny without regurgitating radfem talking points and victim blaming rhetoric. it's literally not that fucking hard. i see shit like "question male ccs" specifically, as if women can't be complicit in abuse (even though minx is still running around with no consequences for doing just that). i see shit like "if someone is mistreating you you should be open about it otherwise you're complicit when other people get hurt".
and i'm sick of tolerating this shit, i'm just straight up blocking you if i see it. it's not welcome here.

this isn't putting words in shelby's mouth. she doesn't like this shit. knock it off
Man.... I can't stop thinking about Pac and the Risus Pill arc
- Pac saying he took the pills because he didn't have any other choice, he was so hopeless he wants to take them until he doesn't remember anything
- Pac saying "At least I’m not crying in some random corner in the Island expecting my friends to come save me, and nobody comes save me"
- And then the thing he said immediately before that: "I lost my friend, I lost my friend’s friend, I lost my Egg, I lost my child, I lost everything, I'm– I was completely hopeless– so yeah, maybe I wanna be drugged and live my miserable but happy life. At least I’m not in that saddest place anymore."
- The blood at Chume Labs
- The three graves at Chume Labs
- The message he wrote to Cellbit asking Cellbit to kill him if things got too bad, then changing it and saying "lock me up" instead.
- The conversation with Fit, Fit pleading with him, and Pac saying "I don’t want to go back to that bad and sad place."
- Pac, despite his grief and depression, finding an antidote and saving himself (with the help of his friends)
Literally everything from the Risus Pill arc makes me so heartbroken

I'm not a huge fan of the Tazercraft mental link headcanon (it's just not my cup of tea personally), HOWEVER—
I can't stop thinking about Pac in Alcatraz with his back to the wall as Cell approaches him with a cold smile on his face and a bloody knife in one hand, and Pac completely blocking Mike out because he knows something terrible is about to happen, and if he can't save himself then maybe he can at least spare Mike the graphic gory details.
And even when he’s lying on the cold concrete floor in a pool of his own blood, Pac is still trying to block everything out so he doesn't project his pain to Mike through their mental link. But ultimately, that's what scares Mike the most — the sharp flash of Pac's terror for an instant, and then silence.
