    I saw that this morning, tale. Pretty cool.
    I've been enjoying Devil Dinosaur in Planet Hulk so far.
    Enjoying him so much that I bought Issue 3 twice not because I thought I grabbed issue 4 this week and didn't realize until I got home.
    "The Devil...He lives!"

    Can't say I read anything with him -or Moon Boy- before then, though.

    The Lucifer pilot wasn't half-bad. Might change my mind once I actually read the source material on that one.

    "Man this Jurassic World fanfic is pretty good. I wonder what is going to happen ne-"
    Pepper Pots! Stark Industries!
    "O-okay! That's fine! It's just a small cameo! It's not it's going to actually mention of any of the fantastical stuff in the MCU!"
    Iron Monger! Iron Man!
    "...It's okay. I can ignore this. It's not like anything else in the MCU is going to be men-'
    Claire: The worlds are different place, what with that invasion in New York and gods and aliens and super soldiers...

    No! The fanfic was not billed as a crossover fanfic! It was billed to me as Jurassic World fanfic, and that's the way it should of stayed! This **** was literally brought up ten chapters in without any prior mention! This **** was shoehorned in so Claire could get Jarvis to hack InGen and learn what the Indominus rex was made up of! I would have totally been fine with it had it just be a case of "these characters exist in this story but there aren't superheroes or gods or aliens as this is in the Jurassic Park universe" But nooooooooo, the writer just went "Oh yeah, the MCU and Jurassic World exist in the same world" FOR NO GODDAMN REASON! Hell, it probably isn't going to matter at all as the only reason was for Claire to call Pepper and get Jarvis to hack InGen! Why even mention any of the elements of the MCU?! Was it even necessary?! Was suddenly making this a crossover fic out of the goddamn blue really the only way Claire could of gotten this information?! WHY?!?!

    FANFIC WRITER!!!

    I had a fight with a friend a few weeks ago because I was being an ******* (and I was, I'm willing to accept that because it's true. I have been working on changing my ways thus far and it's working!) and last night her friend made a call out post against me.

    For context:

    Me and two other friends (formerly three) run a blog called princesses-for-real-justice. We anonymously help people with problems varying from not being able to cope with something to being kicked out by parents. We have over 300 followers and it feels nice to be able to help people like that. We kind of faceclaim Nintendo princesses, hence the name. We started it as a parody to sonic-for-real-justice, a blog dedicated to mocking social justice warriors, special snowflake genders, and so on. We were more positive about our parodying, more poking fun at them than actually mocking them. We accepted everyone and never once spoke out against anyone for who they were or what they identified as.

    A few days ago, me and Mod Zelda (my former friend)'s problems came to light a little when SFRJ came back and there seemed to be drama between all those mods. Out of nowhere comes someone named Mod Chun-Li on their own for justice blog, and when Mod Zelda starts saying things like "it's amazing how this parallels my life" and stuff, Chun-Li accused her of being an attention seeker. Obviously I agree as that's not even necessary, and my other friend who is Mod Robin on there agreed.

    I step in and defend Mod Zelda, then a **** storm starts. Mod Zelda's friend begins poking the bear and pissing off Mod Chun-Li, calling them by my name and stuff until Mod Chun-Li snaps and calls her a tranny (really transphobic slur). Said friend, already disliking me for how I acted towards Mod Zelda, is holding onto this comment still, which I don't blame her since she's transgender and that's a really rude thing to call someone like that.

    Keep in mind that I've been genderfluid, but ultimately have understood it's just not me (recent development before this), and I dealt with being misgendered and slurred at for that, so I know what it's like. I probably wouldn't be much better if someone had done that in a public space like that.

    Anyway, now it's come down to even friends of my friends who don't like me being on my side, because they at least know I would NEVER speak out against a transgender person like that. I've dated a transgender person before, and was VERY close to him as friends when it was all over. In fact, I did mention him in my signature. His name was Zander and he died earlier this year, and I was a wreck for a while afterwards. Poison is my favorite character and she's trans, and so on and so forth.

    Here's the call out post, it's actually a really funny read, as she keeps mentioning I'm a smash 4 elitist when in actuality I just despise how glitchy Melee is and how you HAVE to be good at it otherwise you're nothing in the smash community.

    @Poison

    I've been kind of dealing with a similar situation. But I'll put it behind a cut so I'm not bothering anybody.

    SO I've made some really good friends in the Teen Wolf tumblr rp community which was the community I moved to after a huge fallout from the TRON tumblr rp community. Anyway, there was this situation where one of my friends, we'll call her M for convenience has a gf that's kind of got a reputation as a drama queen. Another friend, L, was talking to the gf and said she'd brb for a bit to talk to her mother.

    Well, L comes back to find that this gf had run to M essentially saying that L didn't like her anymore. On top of the feeling that M has been kin of pushing L and myself away when a few months ago, we were more important. It takes M months to reply to one of our threads and she claims I'm intimidating but it's kind of beyond that point. If I'm as good of a friend as M claims, then I shouldn't be so intimidating.

    So I deleted M from my Skype contacts and unfollowed all her blogs. Deleted all the threads I had with her off of my thread tracker. I was getting to the point I was losing sleep over worrying that M was going to yell at me and I'm still worried she's going to pop into my askbox or messaging me on skype.

    It's just...something I didn't need to worry about the week before my vacation.

    I really didn't need this on my girlfriend's birthday, honestly.

    It's worse because now she's admitted to have gotten her satisfaction even if she didn't prove anything. She did it just because she didn't like me and wanted to make me look bad. That's really disappointing.
