So umm...she just implied that indulging in romance stories or fanfiction that has problematic tropes could lead to someone either entering an abusive relationship or becoming an abuser themselves.

Layne, as a survivor myself, you do not speak for me. Go fuck yourself.

She’s a total puritanical, anti-intellectual weirdo.

Screw it! Adding more fan casts.

McKenna Grace as Aura
Janet Hubert as a significant Book 3 character

Me too - I did a whole XenoWho actor crossover thread ages back.

New update to this thread:

Courtesy of the post-credits scene from The War Between The Land And The Sea, we have the wielder of the Monado himself - Shulk / Adam Howden.

In TWBTLATS, he’s that jogger that Kate threatens to shoot for littering… or maybe she saw some of his Twitter likes.

There’s a lot to like in the finale on reflection, but that credits scene kinda soured me for a moment. That first skeet was very much a reactive skeet.

I’mma need to sit on this one for a bit because there is good stuff buried under some of the nonsense.

Also, I still don’t buy the romance.

All this said, the ultimate message being that “the rich and powerful would much rather do genocide than experience mild inconvenience” is the kind of grim messaging the Russell has been consistent with. Not nihilistic, but very grim and righteously angry.

Oh, and just to make sure I’m clear, I’m not saying that littering isn’t wrong. That guy in the end was a dick.

I’m just saying be consistent with your message, show.

Blaming individuals for the problems caused by the capitalistic machine is the kind of neoliberal bullshit I thought we’d moved past.

Also, that post-credits scene was frankly pathetic.

How do you go on for the entire series about how industrial scale water pollution is the problem, then end with Katie threatening to shoot some random schmuck over a discarded water bottle?

DID YOU WATCH YOUR OWN FUCKING SHOW?!

These are the "good and decent people" who didn't survive the Reagan presidency.

This is just every comic con weekend 😂

I almost thought you meant “content warning: Journey’s End”

which would have also been valid 😅
