(Anonymously) Tell Me What Character I Have The Same Energy As

Reblog for Good luck🙏🏼

A lot of the time though when people hear or read the word critical, they view it as the negative. We need to change, in a social sense, what the word critical and critical analysis means.

To add to this and explain what I mean, I look at characters critically when I like them. I find their flaws and perfections and see how they intermingle to make a character I like. I examine how that characters past as influenced their present and how it may influence their future.

From a narrative standpoint, I pick apart what makes a piece of literature I like to find out more about it. I use those ELA classes I took in Middle/HS and I put them to use in everything I read. I try to understand the story for what it is and what it could be trying to say between the lines. I look for all the negative and the positive and I ask, "What, When, Why and How?"

All aspiring authors should try to do this, with professional and non-professional(free content, like Fanfics) to see how their favorite authors convey emotions, tell a scene, etc. The people around you, be they famous or not, can teach you so much- you just have to look for the golden nuggets of themselves they sprinkled into their works.

I think the people who say “You don’t need to be critical of every piece of media you consume” fundamentally misunderstand what we mean by “critical”.

When we say “be critical of the media you consume” we don’t mean “be negative” as in, find every flaw and pick it apart CinemaSins style.

We mean “examine it”. Like, look at what you are consuming, and in many cases, enjoying, and ask yourself why you are enjoying it. Ask yourself who made it. Ask yourself if you are the target audience. Ask yourself if you are being represented by the characters you see. Ask yourself if the author has biases or political leanings they are trying to include in the story.

Just, ask yourself questions. The answers don’t have to be negative. That’s not what being critical means.

Last one! For now lol this was so much fun to do

I have been a menace to people in the comments of this TT so here you go. For context, I am an afab trans guy.

It's always fun trolling ppl who take a BS comment seriously lol

Like seriously, so fun

I now identify as Captain Boomerang

Okay these are others taking the joke as it is lol

OKAY, I HAVE A HOT TAKE:

They were so hard on Jim bc of a few reasons:

1) he is a child, most trollhunters weren't chosen until they were adults, so having a child be chosen is shocking. Would you trust the fate of the world to a child? Cause I know I wouldn't. I'd even be iffy on someone in their 20s.

2) he's a human, yes the amulet was made by Merlin, a magical human, but it was made for the trolls, to be used by trolls(more or less). To see something that is so highly praised and protected be wielding by someone who is part of a group that tried to kill off/enslave ur entire species IS unsettling and upsetting. Regardless of that person's true intentions.

However, this is where I think my opinion is a bit controversial, Jim wouldn't have succeeded if not for his friends. Troll culture is very much, "do it yourself" and doesn't exactly praise brains or teamwork when it comes to their warriors. Jim always had his friends, and tried to make friends with his enemies- even giving them second chances(which from the troll perceptive is seen as weakness or pitying). He worked as a group, and it was shown that when he split off and tried to do things himself, he ended up getting in over his head or nearly killed, to which his crew would then show up and aid him. The amulet was never met for just one person to wield. It was meant for a group, for the leader to wear. It's no different than a crown or a rank. Like the Matrix of Leadership from Transformers. It marks who is best to lead at that time, not who's best to protect, and definitely not meant to be used alone.

The reason the others failed where Jim succeeded was bc of the people who he loved and the ones who loved him.

I didnt really wanna resort to using this site, and I hate talking about political stuff, but this is too important to me and I have a FAR bigger following here than anywhere else.

Hi. My name is Liz, and my school is going through MAJOR budget cuts from the state Governor.

Last year, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy decided he would take almost 80 million dollars from my entire school district to give to private schools.

80 MILLION! THAT'S ALL OF OUR SCHOOL'S FUNDING.

My school is known for our clubs, our plays, our chorus, and most importantly our Football team and school spirit. I LOVE my high school. Which is pretty surprising coming from me, a person who genuinely doesn't like going to school. But my school is fun! It's so lively and everyone is so spirited. But if Murphy continues the budget cuts, we will lose all that. We lose our clubs. Our activities. Our projects. Our music. Our football team. Our spirit.

My school, and my TOWN will be nothing if this goes through. This will ruin everything.

But we are gonna try and stop this.

On December 10, 2019, the entire district of Tom's River will be going to the governors??? Office??? Building???? In Trenton to hold a Rally. Thousands of children will be standing outside of his office and protesting against the budget cuts.

The things that the governor is doing is going to affect mine and a lot of other kids' futures. And definitely NOT in a good way. Hundreds of thousands of kids will not have college opportunities, scholarship opportunities, or even sustainable jobs in the future. This needs to stop.

And now, this is where you guys come in. SPREAD THIS LIKE WILDFIRE.

I wont have petitions and shit up until tomorrow when the Rally takes place, so all you guys can really do right now is spread this post. Make it known how these budget cuts are going to effect me and the kids in my district. Save our future.

Save Our Schools.

Hmmmm tasty
