sometimes i think about how my parents let me read and watch watchmen when i was far too young, definitely young enough that i didn't really understand that we weren't supposed to see rorschach as the hero. i reread the book as an adult and was honestly clutching my pearls about how much of a proto-incel he was, and though i still love the character, it's scary how many people....still.....don't realize that he's not a hero? something something media literacy is dead

14 year old me really saw this severely mentally ill misogynist and was like, "ah yes, liking this character is going to be my personality for the next two years"

letting me play someone's shitty dad

but honestly, letting me have free range on characters is a must. it drives me batty when admins on sites start dictating what is and is not acceptable for me to write. i'm a grown adult, and i can write what i want. i'm more than willing to to tag things, but like other people have mentioned, i like to write darker subjects; and as writers i think we all like to explore these topics (at least, i'd like to think so). and i've mentioned it before, but for me, roleplay is a chance for me to basically be a bad person lmao. i've always gravitated towards villains, and it's a requirement that i play at least one on every site i'm on. but i don't ever just stop at just one lmao

guidebook + webpage supremacy through and through. it just makes it so much easier to organize things, and i'll never go back to having a billion threads on site lol

even though most rp sites have the same rules, it's lowkey what i hate writing the most
I agree! I always make other people write them for me bc I always feel like no matter how I write them, it comes off as being patronizing. 🥴

I didn’t think it was possible to remove all the soul and emotion from “fast car”, but luke combs sure did it. way to ruin a great song bud 👍

Not really, no. I barely tell people things about my hobbies, I find it not necessarily embarrassing, but I feel awkward about it. Especially when I talk about coding, it feels like I’m coming off as bragging no matter what I do. So I just don’t talk about it much. The people who do know about my rp’ing don’t even know that much about it, tbh. Like my immediate family has been aware since I started doing it in elementary school; but it’s never something that I’ve shared with people IRL.

In fact, my dad only asked me this week if he could see some of the things I’ve coded and I was shocked by how impressed he was. My brother has been telling me for years I should become a professional web designer, but for me, coding and rp are so interwoven that I don’t really see why or how I’d separate the two. I think for me, it’s really hard to share this creative aspect of myself with people I know IRL bc it’s something that’s always been very personal for me, and apart of me that wants me to keep it that way.

RP has been been collaborative for me obviously, but I enjoy the semi anonymity of it all. With the notable exception of being platonically married to my main rp partner , I don’t really know a lot of the people I write with on a personal level like that; but we still have a mutual need to be creative and can explore that together without having to forgo a lot of the exhausting social norms that comes with IRL socializing. It’s a nice change of pace, especially since for me, rp is purely a creative and emotional outlet.

I think a lot of people would understand that on some level, even if they don’t understand rp necessarily, but I love that I have something just for me. Something that I can sit back and think about when I’ve had a shitty day at work and want to rot in bed; I can just daydream about my ocs I’ve had since I was 13 years old and know that no one can judge me or give input on whatever whackass storylines I create in my head and just be indulgent. Anyway thanks for coming to my Ted talk lol

Sudden realization that i was being bullied all this time, and i dont know exactly why i somehow am a target of that in rping. Makes me sad bc i genuinely only ever want/try to do fun things with others but yeah. I get why ppl are nasty but also just big sadge. 😔
I’m sorry to hear that Tanz. This community is full of the bullied who will take any opportunity to become the bullies fr
