i haven't touched awakening modding almost at all mostly bc i don't have any major ideas. but i thought of one

seeing chara undertale get mischaracterized as an evil demonic being hellbent on wiping out monsters in the year 2024

how is this fandom smart enough to have a majority of people know and understand that kris is not inherently evil or malicious and that you’re just the one controlling them and using their powers for horrible things in the snowgrave route and yet simultaneously Not Smart enough to realize you are practically doing the same thing to chara in the no mercy route of undertale. question mark?

people will look at chara undertale and deem THEM as the villain and the ‘TRUE evil’ in the game whose sole focus is eliminating all life ever to exist when in reality chara undertale literally killed themself so that monsterkind would be free . do you remember that. do you remember that chara was a very mentally unwell child heavily implied to come from a background of horrific abuse who came to mount ebott to end their own life only to find a sense of belonging and community and that they died hoping that their act of self sacrifice could free the people they’d come to know as their true family. that with that knowledge it makes zero sense why they would be the mastermind behind all the damage you, of your own agency, choose to dish out in the no mercy route. when asriel says “chara wasn’t the best person” he is very evidently not implying that chara was some demon on this earth that torments anything that moves, he is merely saying that despite their status as a holy sacrificial lamb to monsterkind, they still had flaws as a person. they had vengeance against all humans, not monsters, and maybe if that was better managed it wouldn’t have resulted in them doing what they did. like dude i don’t know how to tell you this but every instance of Chara Being Scary And Creepy are YOUR doing, because when you reach the perfect ending of freedom for monsterkind chara ultimately strived for and then forever strip that away from them by killing everyone they love, they seriously have every right to last out at you for that. like do you not think undertales central theme of viewing people with compassion does not extend to what is essentially a mentally ill child fleeing from a life of violence and mistreatment at the hands of others just because They Made A Scary Face At you LIKE?????? ARE YOU INSANE

and re: chara having an undying hatred for humanity. that IS a core aspect of their character. ANDDDD it DOESNT make them evil. what people Always Always miss is that that hatred for all other people is very common from children from broken homes, like of course when you come to view violence as a means of inflicting power and you’re defenseless to fight back against it you are going to want to have that feeling of power for yourself just to feel like you Are Someone in this world. i feel like a big reason why chara went thru with their plan is that like. evidently asgore and toriel never really tried to dispute the worldview that humans are evil, because they as monsters have always lived in fear of humans. it’s just that they see chara as a child first and a human second. their status as a human being is of less importance to the dreemurrs because they have a child and they know the importance of keeping a child safe and THATS why they’re so compassionate towards chara to begin with. and the fact that asgore and toriel maybe didnt do a lot to quell charas hatred of humanity does not make them bad people and it does not make them evil. it only makes them flawed. tldr Leave This Poor Kid Alone Whats Your Problem

i didnt know people were insecure about their eye colour until i came on this website

hey man is everything all right at home ?

"i assume bad things about people based on their physical characteristics and think they should be bred out" Hey. hey say that again slower this time maybe you'll realize something funny

genuinely when you log off and are only exposed to the lives of those around you as god intended you realize how much shit does not matter. i know this is not a hot take but we were not meant to hear every thought, feeling and opinion of people we will never see face to face. it’s so much easier to pile on people for harmless but annoying opinions when you will never have to spend extended time with them.

Deeply dispiriting post: testimony from a DOJ antitrust action reveals the entire book publishing industry is celebrity memoirs, established franchise authors like James Patterson, children's books, Bibles, and back catalogues (e.g. Lord of the Rings). Publishing new authors is not even a rounding error; you get the sense it's only done anymore out of a vague sense of obligation, and the moment one of the Big Five decides on the defect strategy, and stops doing that to save a few more bucks, it will end entirely.
