Iโ€™m sorry please correct me if Iโ€™m insane and wrongโ€ฆ

but is this newsom saying he โ€œfell preyโ€ to not being โ€œculturally normalโ€ because he was supportive of same sex marriage?

I don't know how it was brought up to her. Knowing the internet, likely not well. I imagine it was thrown at her as an attack and harassment and all that. This is why I stay away from the obsessive fandom discourse.
I can see why she reacted like that, but that doesn't change my view overall.

I've heard some people discuss how insensitive it was to have someone who endorses and creates such art be involved with the show, let alone that scene. As an outsider who finds it unsettling anyway, I can see how some actual victims would find it even more so.

I know what it is, I've heard those terms before, though I don't see a difference between "CNC" and "rape fetish" aside from the words used.
Either way, people aren't allowed to question it, especially in the context of that specific scene.

I mean its fair if nobody else was able to do it, but my issue comes with her defending it afterwards. I don't expect employers to ask about their artists' personal interests ofc, but it coming to light like that and her defending it strikes me as a red flag.

That's my only real issue, and YEAH! People are way way way too aggressive and doing it just to tear others down, that's why I've stayed put of it myself mostly. I don't wanna add to that.

You're fine, tho you asked for an explanation and all I tried to do was give one. I don't feel attacked or anything but I want to be clear I don't think one should be interviewed about their fetishes for a job lmao
I just take issue with how she handled it, and how defensive she was.

23.02.2026 17:37 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

...to never going through such abuse anyway, so that defence doesn't even track in his case.

That's my recollection. I hope it helps a bit.

...and assault, in a non-glorifying manner of course.
When Viv was called out on this, she got extremely defensive and claimed non-con art can be a coping mechanism for survivors. While that may be true, that doesn't automatically mitigate criticism of it, and this artist she hired had admitted...

23.02.2026 13:31 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

...when she's wrong. I know there are actual stories from folks but that's where those videos come in.
What got me the most was her hiring a storyboard artist who had drawn art fetishizing and glorifying rape. That person was then tasked with storyboarding scenes featuring allusions to rape...

I get how you feel, I was there too and still sort of am? Like I said I never dove headfirst into it since I don't even watch her work, but my understanding is that she has a history of treating people poorly and just being a really rude and snappy person who doesn't admit...

23.02.2026 13:31 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

And then even worse, people decide "eh, too much dRaMa for me" and commit to not thinking about or questioning any of it either way. I'm not saying I'm totally right in my views here, nor do I intend to really dig into this topic, but its so mind numbing to see people respond with indifference. Ugh.

23.02.2026 09:51 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I'd never harass anyone over it, but Vivziepop has said some BS in the past and the only people I see defending it are OBSESSED with her/her work.
If Goose is close with her, I consider that a bad look on them too.
Viv does not deserve hatred, but she also does not deserve rabid defending either.

File opening? Genuinely asking, what do you mean by that? The most I have to do is tell my emulator (BizHawk) "this is the ROM folder. Open this when I press the open button/key" and it does so. That's about it.

Also check out BizHawk. Best fuckin' emulator ever for pre-PS1 games, GBA, and DS lol

if you really think the left cost you the election, then in the next one (if there is one lol) you obviously need to convince them to vote for your candidate. given how scolding, negging, and browbeating worked last time, i suggest you focus on policy positions that would be attractive to leftists

Should clarify that it's more "theory culture" that I take issue with over theories themselves.

Theories can be fun but, when encouraged too much, they can often miss the point of media when it's not about the "deep lore" of things and more about simpler, more universal themes of a story.

Frank looks extremely throwable. No idea what that means. I just want to grab him and chuck him into the stratosphere. #art #furry #mcr

Just realized this reminds me of the @gianmarcosoresi.bsky.social bit that goes like "my friend told me 'I'd vote for the democratic nominee, even if it was Adolf Hitler' which is weird, because I didn't ask him that" lmao

...are you fucking kidding me? I'm so mad. Its"just one thing" but going back on even one promise like this... What the fuck.

Where are the people gonna go if you can't find them shelters? I'm all for getting people off the streets but not if they have nowhere else to go. What the FUCK!?
