This Is True, But I Also Want To Speak From Experience That It's Also That Needs To Feel Like What Someone

This is true, but I also want to speak from experience that it's also that needs to feel like what someone wants to do.

For example, I'm trying some more tragic stories, but its certainly not RWBY, I'm trying Code Geass and I really need to get back to Kanebei The Iron Fortress

But the thing felt like it was because I wanted to grow thicker skin and something lesser known, not because a snob pressured me to watch it to "learn some culture"

People are working 9 to 5 jobs already so their already frustrated, and when you snark at what they love and hold up what you like and tell them to like it, it becomes another chore for them, and they got plenty of that from work.

It's hard to develop new tastes, but when you get passive aggressive and assume the worst what their tastes are without any evidence of immorality in said taste, and prop what you like up, they don't wanna do it. It comes off as moralizing, and it drives them further away.

You guys realize you can change your tastes, right?

They don't have to be a part of Who You Are. If you didn't like onions when you were 8 but you like them now that you're in your 20s, we call that "growth." "Development." But if you liked anime when you were 13 and someone tells you to broaden your tastes, try different mediums, or deepen your love for classic films instead, they're "bullying you" and "people should just be allowed to like what they like!"

Yeah. Sure. They're allowed to have one or three tastes in media all their life. They're allowed to keep watching what they're used to and enjoying what they've always enjoyed. Heck, people are allowed to eat cheese whiz all day, every day, if they want to. Nobody's making a law against it.

But you don't have to stay there. You can cultivate a taste for deeper books, truer stories, better music. Just like you learned how to enjoy writing and reading and all that jazz. You can re-train your affections the same way you can re-train your tastebuds.

Do you have to? No. But is it better for you to control your affections instead of letting them control you? Yes. Every time. Every. Time. Including in what you watch during your "down-time." After all, anything worth having is hard work and way better for you. I'm not saying "quit watching anime, put down the Twilight Saga." I'm saying, "try to grow." It's better for you.

nitpick November TWO

they took my girl’s jaw away. where. did it go. give it back.

Nitpick November TWO
Nitpick November TWO

Like i really dig how her eyes look in v7 onwards but otherwise? Her face just… it looks BAD

Her revamped Maya face v4-v6 was noticeably sharper and a tiny bit slimmer. Compare her face in V6 to someone like Ruby’s

Nitpick November TWO
Nitpick November TWO

And there’s a difference, even if a very subtle one. But it’s better than nothing, aka, THE V7-ONWARD MODELS

Nitpick November TWO
Nitpick November TWO

Her face is now a lot rounder. The chin is curved. Her mouth is a tiny bit smaller. It’s not as long. AND I FUCKING HATE IT

Because you compare it to the other girls. Again, Ruby. And now there’s no difference. Literally none.

FUCKING RUBY’S looks sharper than hers does. And now compare it to Yang.

Nitpick November TWO

All of the girls post V6 have this weird same face syndrome going on that, aside from the shapes of their fucking eyes, would lead a viewer to have to literally SQUINT to find any other differences. And yeah, this isn’t a big deal. It’s a nitpick. And guess what? It’s

Friday :)

Thinking of my Megacrossover events; The Order of Cair Paravel

One Saga, involving RWBY, BlazBlue, Skullgirls, Bionicle, Skeleton Knight in Another World, Code Geass, Fate, D.Gray-Man and a few others which focus on original characters, notably one is the granddaughter of Susan Pevensie and her love interest who is an American dude who's a bit of satire of New Hollywood movies of the 1980s and set in mostly our world which shares the Fate World and references many 1980 films such as Ghostbusters and The Goonies and is all about fighting disenchantment and uses Chronicles of Narnia as a basis

Then there's another saga that involves the bully of the American character's school finding redemption involving Lies of P, Alice Madness Returns, Bioshock and a few others but uses The Ransom Trilogy and bits of The Silver Chair, even involves worlds including world of Fritz Lang's metropolis and overarching themes of the horrors and evils of scientism and modernity

Both involve evil Cults/Secret societies who are under the influence of "The Bent One" aka The Devil
