the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible
because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person
from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing
and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating
it’s fucked up.
I think part of the pushback about this is the idea that, to “redeem” bad people, their victims must first forgive them for unforgivable acts.
This is false. No one is obligated to forgive you. You can learn from your mistakes and become the best, kindest person on earth, and the
people you’ve hurt still won’t forgive you, and you’ll have to accept that. And that doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to grow. Because we aren’t just “pure” or “sinful”, we’re complex.
I love how muppets walk I wish I could walk like that
- Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1755), Discourse on the Origin of Inequality
As a society valuing convenience over experience is why everything sucks today. Blockbuster was an EXPERIENCE. the movie theater was an EXPERIENCE. Music stores were an EXPERIENCE. Arcades were an EXPERIENCE. I don’t want to sit in my house forever!!!!! I don’t want everything streamed to my electronics!!!!! I want to sit in front of the big silver screen for 2 hours with a coke freeze and come out with my life changed!!!! I want to live and I don’t care the cost!!!!!!
i think the reason yoongi’s “bare minimum” domesticity is so attractive is bc it just adds to his overall aura...like a lot of what we know about yoongi is just?? so calming??? is a really good cook. hums while doing so. builds furniture for fun. has never raised his voice at anyone. watches tech reviews and cat videos on youtube. wears big comfy hoodies. waddles. likes interior design. plays piano. attentive. sends i love you texts randomly but as gentle reminders. handwrites his music. patient. soft spoken. harbors fun facts about history and sports and,,,dinosaurs. shoulders bounce when he laughs. likes holding hands. firm but gentle words of comfort. his existence just feels very safe dude idk
only one in three million tiktoks are this worth watching
i'm sad bc i love people who are far away from me... i'm delighted by the fact that i live in a world where i can love people who are far away from me... the conundrum of the day
I know the names of cats across the oceans that I may never get the chance to pet, but to know they exist is a gift all it's own.
