You know what? I nearly didn't post this. Tumblr and its "this shit is problematic and you're problematic for liking it!" attitude has really made me wary. Not because I willingly ignore problems within media I enjoy, because I don't. But because it's so prevalent over the site, and I'm sick of seeing it. I'm not stupid, I know problematic shit when I see it, but it's not going to stop me from enjoying a thing if the problematic thing is not what the whole thing's about.

So yes, I know this has off-putting content. I'm well aware of it. I don't excuse the character's behaviour AT ALL.

(I'll stop being defensive about it eventually; the longer I'm away from tumblr, the better).

things which are good! )

I don't really have a conclusion, this is mostly me writing down stuff so I can remember it (I don't do that enough).
