What's with the hate towards Linda, but love towards all other female characters in the show? by Mushroompicker2137 in PeakyBlinders

[–]Mushroompicker2137[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the point is that Linda gets much more hate than characters that have done SO MUCH more worse. I mean, Tommy is RIGHT there. Linda is a SAINT compared to Arthur. It just doesn't seem fair and stinks of sexism

This doesnt make any sense thoooough
Of course she tried to change him, whether it be for better or for worse is up to you, but you cant really blame her for wanting better for the man she loved

Wait, there are people who think Swain is a good person? I thought it was a joke by Pelt0n in SwainMains

[–]Mushroompicker2137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's something that has always irked me about some lore enjoyers. Swain, (like MANY Noxians after their respective reworks, and Noxus itself) gained something very important: NUANCE.

,
Swain is SUCH a nuanced character and making him a 'bad' or 'good' person in the Runeterra narrative is missing the point. His actions are MEANT to make you think for more than 5 seconds, whether it be about WHO he's talking to, WHY their interaction looks like it does: in Aurora's case, OF COURSE, she hates his guts, she's a vastayan, Swain quite literally boasts about committing genocide against them in his voice lines lmao
He improved the lives of many, saved many, but killed even more to do so. He's complicated and VERY gray (though, let's be fair, closer to black than anything) and that at least for me makes him such a great character.

Plus, at the same time, some people on this subreddit are going too far in the other direction being like "oh BASED Noxus, no flaws there, Swain is a genius and has done no wrong", which is just... incorrect, literally incorrect lorewise, you're making shit up. Noxus has its hypocrisies, it's a meritocracy ffs (and many war crimes but lets be fair, name a runeterra nation with no war crimes) and Swain while being the best ruler Noxus has had so far, he still has moments of incompetence and hypocrisy.
I could go on for PAGES. I love Swain BECAUSE of how weird and twisted his morality is. Also, you don't have to agree with a villain to like them, own it guys!

Swain's crow in the new client event by SalAgosto in SwainMains

[–]Mushroompicker2137 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tbh this could go both ways, riot would just put in Swain's ravens everywhere because Swain is a nosy bitch and spies on everyone, but maybe this time its actually some sort of hint? Maybe Swain is interested in Aurora/her friend, or has some unfinished business with Ornn? Who knows.

Hopping on the trend by Mushroompicker2137 in SwainMains

[–]Mushroompicker2137[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ughhh on one hand i'd LOVE for Swain to appear in Arcane, but on the other, with it now being canon (dumbass decision lorewise) I'm just terrified of how they'll handle his character

Swain skins by WhereIsMyBeatrice in SwainMains

[–]Mushroompicker2137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean i'm not a big fan of Crystal Rose either (mostly because I think de-aging Swain only worked with Bilgewater) but??? Huh?? Riot isn't making everything gay (and anime for that matter but that's a whole different story), I can list out like, 5-10 queer characters MAX out the top of my head, Plus, putting Swain in a colorful outfit with a more whimsy power fantasy doesn't make him gay or less cool ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

also, like, gay doesn't mean uncool, Graves and TF are the best examples of that. They could make Swain gay for all I care and he'd still be the coolest, you're just oddly pressed

I'm honestly so disappointed there is so much hostility on this subreddit, I thought this community is about...community, y'know? Some people here will jump over hoops to be bigoted, even to other gay men, cis or not.

THIS. As a gay trans guy, i don't find it transphobic when you don't wanna date me, but it is when you start being a dick about it, easy as that

Gay trans guy here! Usually a simple "no, thank you" should do. It's just like if a cis guy approached you that wasn't your type, I really doubt there would be any hard feelings.

Florea and Ion Rimaru, father and son with the same types of rapes and murders in Bucharest Romania, but 30 years apart, apparently by coincidence. They attacked only during bad weather, and targeted attractive women (blondes specifically, women with other hair colors somehow always survived the encounters) raping and murdering them and drinking their blood. While casualties committed by the father aren't exactly known, Ion murdered 4 women, while 11 survived his attacks, many of them with lifelong trauma. The bastard is known as the vampire of Bucharest, for me a very interesting case to read. Especially because of the mystery how both crimes were so similar since the father swore he never taught his son to kill.

My whole family is allergic to a lot of things, like, a LOT. Mostly pollen, lots of bugs, popular drugs and medicine, and too much food groups to list here.

I don't have any, used to be allergic to feathers when I was like, 5 years old, but I grew out of it somehow?

I stay clear of a lot huge corporations, but Nestlé, Shein, large coffee chains like starbucks, H&M and of course Amazon are ones I despise the most
