One Piece is so fucking stupid. Especially the Enies Lobby arc.
Demon God Zoro, who can conjure the image of a war god through sheer force of will, has had his tits out for three arcs. He's fighting a giant giraffe. They exchange 1-2 blows then stand around and talk for 5 minutes.
Sanji, a monster who fights only with his legs because hands are too valuable to a chef to damage, got turned into a literal bar of soap because he refused to hit a woman. This is not a good thing, as the woman assisted in kidnapping his friend and crewmate.
Nami controlos the weather. No, she doesn't have powers. In fact, she's just a normal person and often runs away from battles (frankly, same, girl. Leave the fighting to the fucking freaks on your team). She just has a Really Cool Stick that makes weird weather shit happen.
Usopp is pretending to be a superhero because he's too cowardly to talk about his feelings with his captain after they had a big fight. His alter ego is Sniper King and he wears a goofy mask, and he sings his own theme song. He also nearly got killed by a furry.
Chopper had to turn himself into an eldritch beast to win a fight against an annoying theater kid.
Franky nearly died as a child because he thought he could stop a train by hugging it. He turned himself into a cyborg, but...only the front half. His backside still bleeds. He's also powered by cola. Using vegetable juice rather than cola turns him into an annoying health nut, btw.
Luffy is getting his ass beat by a man who, for the entire arc before this, had a pigeon speak for him. Pigeon man is also a furry. There's a lot of furries this arc.
Robin is being tormented by a purple-haired clown (not really a clown, because shockingly that's a distinction that needs to be made and there's a BLUE haired clown elsewhere), who is trying to drag her to jail for the crime of...not dying when her island was blown off the map. Her solution? Bite the edge of the fucking bridge so he can't move her. And it's fucking working. Her jaw is strong enough to stop a full grown man from dragging her away (at least for a few minutes).
"Death first to vultures and scavengers" is such a hard line I wish that there were scenarios where I could use it in my day to day life without eventually having to explain that the quote was said by a scrawny teenaged(?) nun in response to what is essentially a dick measuring contest run by a bunch of idiots who have no business being unsupervised for that long anyways.
Me, personally, I think they'd have a sort of begrudging, quiet bond called "I'm surrounded by people who are trying to befriend me and am deeply horrified by that thought"
*banging pots and pans together* STOP! SAYING! THAT! TOE WALKING! IS! A SYMPTOM! OF AUTISM!!!
There is not a line in the DSM 5 that says "toe walking is a symptom of autism" or "autistic people don't like food touching" these behaviors are the PRODUCT of ACTUAL SYMPTOMS that I'm not yet awake enough to explain but I'm SICK of people acting like if you'd rather not have your food touch or if you walk weirdly that's a 100% surefire sign you have autism. Like I love joking as much as the next guy but it's becoming clear that it's not a joke anymore. It's very much giving "if you like to clean you're OCD lol quirky haha" and it's starting to genuinely piss me off.
Slightly unrelated to the original post but I saw an ai "artist" on Instagram who had the nerve to charge a commission for their "art". Charging money. Real money. For typing some words into an ai program. They had "ai artist" in their bio. And they were charging real money for their commissions. I wish I got screenshots but instead I chose to click "not interested" and move on with my life.
ai does not belong in creative spaces. period.
"Every writer"
Writers don't use ai.
Those who use ai are not writers.
They are prompt generators for the prompt generators, producing soulless fucking slop that takes the "writing" out of writing.
a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted
their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"
"Every writer"?
come on
