I usually hyper fixate on a single fandom at a time but for some reason, The Pitt and Heated Rivalry have me in equal chokeholds right now.

The dichotomy of the pressure cooker romance of HR (Shane/Ilya) Vs the old man yaoi of The Pitt (Robby/Abbot) tickles me pink. I haven't had this much fun in fandom for years!

The thing that I cannot ever reconcile with Gaylors is Matty Healy. Now, if you think she's bi and genuinely dated Matty, then that's one thing. But the really hardcore ones who think she is not into men at all and all of her relationships with men have been PR, I don't understand how they explain away Matty Healy. Why would she ever have a fake relationship with Matty Healy? What would the benefit of that have been for her?

The Traitors really does have a toxic TV vibe. I genuinely think that sort of tv show should not exist.

I will never understand why some people require "relatability" or "connecting with" to enjoy media.
Do you not read stories to get lost within their world? Listen to music because it has a nice beat? Look at drawings to admire the skill? Watch movies for entertainment and to enjoy the SFX/acting? Watch foreign TV series out of curiosity about another culture? Consume media that has low reviews for the "narm charm" or to riff on?
Why does it have to be "me,"me, me, me?" or how you can insert yourself into it?
"I don't relate to this." Skill issue, you don't have to.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(Yes, this was inspired by some posts I've seen on F!S and a wider trend I noticed. I had a sheltered upbringing. No childhood friends, my father was very religious and racist. He didn't want me to watch anime or talk to classmates of a different race. Consuming media created by different walks of life saved me from becoming a reactionary evangelical like him. The internet helped me tenfold. We're all human in the end. Even as someone with a narrow range of interests wrt genres/tropes. I'm not going to throw out a good song or movie due to being from another culture.)

"i'm not able to relate to not being able to relate, so i declare i will never understand and have no interest in exploring this further"

I'm not the only one finding it funny, right?

It’s not something I do either, I don’t relate to or identify with characters I like, I just like them because I think they’re fun, not because they share an aspect of my personality as if thats the only way I could possibly enjoy a character.

Like I’ve seen meme trend before now that are like ‘your fave characters share a part of you’ and like nope that’s never been me. Most of my fave characters are nothing like me and I enjoy them for that, it would be so boring if I had to find a way to personally connect them to me because jfc would that give me such a limited range of characters I could like.

Anyone who believes a persons entire dating history is fake just because they want to pretend that Swift could possibly want to fuck them are both deranged and impossible to talk to.

I’m done having conversations about “relatability” when people don’t define what they actually mean.

A story where no one acts in a way you can empathize with or operates on a logic you can understand? Sure, it can be an interesting experience, like decoding something in another language or analyzing a parable for its moral, but it’s often a very emotionally distant one. (And yes, I believe those are both skills you can be better or worse at and skills you can improve on with effort.)

Time is a circle, the cycle always repeats, yada yada.

Bets on who the next set of ‘there was a secret episode/it was a covered up!!!!’ Ship will be, my bets on that Buddie one from the cop/firefighter show because I’ve seen enough delusional shit cross my dash before I blocked the tag for the show completely.

I thought the celebrity version might finally get me interested, but it turns out that watching people try to do social deduction/deception is both uncomfortable and boring for me, even when they’re people I’m already a fan of.
