Though also, check out what the Thai drama industry has been cooking in the past few years: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

On the off chance this post gets discovered, I'm not saying anyone has it better than the other, cause I know there's WLW who prefer romance-focused stories, just like how there are MLM who prefer when the romance isn't the main premise. Just kinda joking it's more inverted than lopsided.

...I was about to say something like "I'd be all over a male eye candy or BL show with a soundtrack like this *inserts a Yuki Kajiura song*" but apparently she composed the theme songs for Loveless.. more motivation to check it out I suppose lol.

Also, as big of a fan of homoerotica as I am, I tend to find fiction with main W/W couples more interesting. I'm more thematically and aesthetically interested in Noir, Revolutionary Girl Utena, and .hack//sign compared to Given or Yuri on Ice.

Not to say I don't think stories like that already don't exist, I think CLAMP created an awesome multiverse and made interesting themes and are an inspiration to me. I've also seen Kannagi no Tori amaze non-BL fans and straight male let's players who play it as a joke. I just want more.

I really love the Mother series as works of art, they feel the most artistic non-indie games I've ever played. Though even just purely judging them as toys to play with, 2 and 3 are solid. They're not complex or volume heavy, but their systems are pretty well thought out and innovative at the time!

I shouldn't have phrased it as "Capcom crossover", Leon's in Project X Zone.

He's up there with Megaman.exe in "How the hell have they never been in a Capcom crossover?"

I have legitimately briefly considered not writing my planned M/M story in English (non-realistic MLM fiction is way more normalized in some cultures) or had thoughts about being very careful about where I advertise it so that only the genre of gay guys not into tumblr-esque discourse will find it.

Can't help but notice there are libraries of discourse about the morality of straight women liking drawings or tv shows of men kissing in fandom hobby spaces but 0 raging about stories in the news about straight men assaulting real life lesbians for refusing to kiss for them.

I hate to sound like a shallow person who only likes cute and pretty, stylized 2D characters but I honestly really struggle to think of any (non-indie) Western video game I find aesthetically pleasing and I'm a bit relieved to see someone else voice a similar sentiment.

Are anti-animal rights people really going to say with full confidence that humans whose careers involve creating AI date centers poisoning our planets and brains have more more moral worth than a bee pollinating plants or a chicken who never hurt anyone

And the people with "STEM Careers" that work in wildlife and environmental fields, you know ones that do objectively, materially contribute to society, get paid with fast food worker salaries.

I'm thinking about this again after talking to a friend who is also pro-animal rights because we talked about how what makes this argument extra ridiculous is that most humans work completely made-up jobs that have no concrete benefit to society. That includes college educated ones making 6 figures.
