"word of god" You invested hundreds of hours creating that work. If it doesn't say want you want for it to say, you failed.

Seeing LGBTQ tags filled with politicized ship wank. Your headcanon is not my political crisis.

I mean, look at Super Mario Bros.. The directors sincerely believe they created a great brotherly love story.

Thank you. You put it into words!

I know when Steven Universe is off hiatus because I start seeing:

"Lesbian ___ is bi erasure!"

"Bi ___ is lesbophobia!"

"But ___ is obviously trans!"

"But ___ is obviously trans!"

I'd love to see who goes in this blank. Lars, maybe?

Lars, because his mother called him Laramie and corrected herself.

Of course, I have a troubled teen nephew who changed his preferred name frequently. I'm not opposed to that headcanon but it's not mine.

"You invested hundreds of hours creating that work. If it doesn't say want you want for it to say, you failed."

This can be true, but it is also true that there are quite a lot of batshit nutcases out there who willfully project their own insane assumptions onto various things that they like, and refuse to accept that they could possibly be mistaken about what the creator intended.

Batshit crazy doesn't listen to word of God either except when it confirms their theory.

I was thinking more of the people who claim that word of god is LYINGGGG or the creator DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ACTUALLY WROOOOTE if word of god contradicts their psycho headcanon in any way

Either way, "word of god" is still bullshit that doesn't replace a close reading of the work in question. Artists sometimes lie. "That wasn't at all racist, you just don't have a sense of humor." "Oh yeah, I meant to do that."

Not to mention, artists generally don't get paid for having good ideas. They're paid for the long and grueling process of developing the best %1 of the many ideas in their massive notebooks and sketchbooks for the audience. Having good ideas doesn't make much of a difference if you can't deliver on them. It's great that the Wachowski sisters are fluent in religious philosophy and queer theory. But damn do they need an editor when it comes to bringing that to the screen.

EDIT: They're much better at expressing the queer theory than the religious philosophy.

One of my friends would sometimes sarcastically refer to social justice as a fandom, and your line about headcanons and political crises definitely reminded me of that.

Also quite accurate, sadly.
