ok the thing about re-animator is that dan wasnt completely helpless when herbert asked him for assistance bc if you interpret the movie that way i think you miss something really important about dans character because like. the first scene we see him in hes desperately trying to save a patient. bringing dead people back to life is clearly something dan might want to do if he was able, but obviously there are moral as well as scientific/medical issues with trying to do that, but when herbert comes along dan is able to kinda accomplish he wanted to be possible, albeit in a more gruesome way than he probably intended. i feel like if dan was pushed hard enough and had the courage, knowledge, and supplies to do it he couldve tried to figure out a way to re-animate people himself but at the end of the day hes still more about saving people than just doing shit for science, and thats why it took herbert coming along and asking him to help before he really explored the idea

been thinking lately of watamote sadly and i think it is a fairly accurate depiction of what being a weirdo during highschool and being alone really is like (which is why i tend to compare it to komi san that has a similar premise of a girl who lacks friends but have extremely different takes on how depressing it is to be socially isolated) and what gets to me about it is that as the series progresses the author's like... frustration? with what isnt necessarily a self insert but something that definitely is based on their own experience going from punishing for trying to make friends the wrong way to being more sympathetic with her through the course of the series, realizing as much of an idiot and sometimes an ass tomoko is she doesnt deserve being alone and is just. a teen who like every teen who has flaws and doesnt have the right answers but still is deserving of connections as cringy she might be and like. it does have a lot of good moments with hte character arcs where it shows these characters tomoko looked down as vain actually have as much of a rich inner world as her, including their own flaws, and in the end i like that as much as she's grown and changed as a character tomoko is still herself and the lesson isnt that you should just find a way to make yourself palatable and become popular, or that the series ends with her achieving her goal of becoming the hive queen or whatever but a more hopeful message of being able to find people who will accept you for who you are, but that for that you also need to be accepting both of others and yourself. also that you should get a group of friends who all have a crush on you

The moment they convinced you to partake in the very games you hated was the moment they broke you.

We rightfully create spaces for ourselves cuz white fans don’t like us in their “spaces” and y’all decide to hack ppl’s accounts simply cuz you’re miserable and racist…..not surprised.

Hey Tumblr, How do you write a good ending to your book? I finished my story but the ending feels out of place and rushed, but if I add more story it feels dragged on like I'm really milking these characters for all they're worth.
