Celebrity Platforms

Today, someone I’ve respected for a long time made some tweets that were incredibly controversial for obvious reasons. To be clear, I have supported Twenty One Pilots for a long time. I was at their concerts with audiences of 500, and Their music saved my life. I have a tattoo of the song that saved me.

Tonight, however, Tyler tweeted some problematic content. For context, his fans have apparently been begging him to use his celebrity platform to speak out about important issues. Namely, the BLM movement. Instead of initially tweeting about BLM, he tweeted this.

I see where this could have been funny in another context. It’s very much a “read the room” situation, and Tyler did not. Two hours later, he begins a thread of tweets about mental health.

Mental health is important by all means. The way he went about this was a bit flawed. Some of his tweets made his followers believe he was in danger; and that they had caused him to be in danger. I wouldn’t go quite as far as to call this gaslighting, but he was on thin fucking ice.

Two hours after this, he finally tweets his stance on the BLM movement. His response is incredibly flippant. He stated that Black lives matter, but he wanted to take time to talk about what he felt was important. Then, he said, “but I guess there’s no room for that right now.”

He then finally apologized.

Let me be incredibly clear, there is always room for mental health awareness. Always. No one is upset with him for promoting this awareness. What people are upset about is the flippant way he went about promoting issues. The way he joked about using celebrity platforms to promote the BLM movement, after months of silence.

His “stans” are jumping to his defense. Saying he shouldn’t have to promote “political” issues. He’s not an activist, he’s a musician.

Some of the fandom has canceled him.

What needs to be done is to have celebrities held accountable. We don’t need to cancel. We need to educate. Human rights issues are NOT political. You don’t have to be an activist to speak up about human rights; and it doesn’t make you an activist to do so. It makes you a human being.

Celebrities, specifically straight, white, cis, men; have an obligation to use their platforms for good. This is not exclusive to celebrities; but people tend to listen to those who have a higher societal standing (appeal to unqualified authority and all that), and thus, will listen to their favorite celebrities. We all have this obligation with social media. Use your platform for good. Be better. Do better.

i’m in my laboratory inventing new pronouns

The show genuinely made me realize I’m part of a system. Absolutely wonderful.

I love Oscar Issac so much this man is literally incredible

You can seriously tell he did his research on DID from the way he mentions books he’s read, he made sure to say alters and not “personalities” and like, idk man, he’s so passionate and caring about the subject it’s so nice to see.

I’m so happy this show worked so hard to properly and appropriately represent DID and I’m even happier seeing several systems talk about how much they enjoyed the show because of that. It’s just so nice.

Thanatos was raised as a human. Not matter how robotic his mind and body may be, there’s still humanity in him.

Seriously tho I love this post so much

Ok I gotta talk about apotheosis again cuz it’s so good and the characters are amazing. And as much as I want to write a thesis on how Peter could become more powerful than all of them, or Rumi’s need for perfection, I really wanna talk about Thanatos.

Cuz Thanatos is the softest motherfucker in the whole crew.

Don’t laugh yet, hear me out.

The man (robot?) gave up the opportunity to kill a god with his bare hands so Peter could feel a bit more powerful. That’s honestly a big deal for his character. He is created to kill gods, but when Peter asks if he could finish him, Thanatos relents and circumvents his programming. A god still dies, so his program is satisfied, but he’s not the one to do it.

And that seems to be the case with a lot of his actions. His instincts, his heart, is covered by the cold logic of his programming. And honestly, I’m talking about the bear jacket. He didn’t need to try and make Rumi and Peter jackets. That’s not furthering his goal. Neither of them have shown any indication of needing a coat. Rumi would die before he was caught shivering and with Exandroths affinity for fire it’s a wonder Peter knows what cold is. There’s no reason for it, no logic, but Thanatos cares about them. He wants to help them, even by providing just some little creature comforts. It wouldn’t surprise me if in his childhood he had a lot of fur coats or blankets. It’s simultaneously trivial and meaningful.

So that brings us to his sister. And this highlights exactly how much he cares. Cuz he can’t bring himself to say her name. I think he’s said it once or twice, but he keeps distancing himself from her. He still loves her. Denying it and distancing himself from the person he knew is a coping mechanism to protect his painfully soft heart. Even though it’s a point of pride for him to be a godslayer, when it comes to the blight of faith, there is no honor, no glory. He still loves her, like any good brother.

That’s why Rumi’s hope, and his pleads for Thanatos to give the blights a chance, to give Thanatos himself a chance fall on deaf ears. He loves too much. And hope hurts.

It’s not that he’s too tough, or too cold to accept Rumi’s suggestions. It’s that the hope there could be a happy ending for him, or for anyone he loves would hurt him far too much.

I LOVE this cute little detail with tup, anyone we’ve ever seen holding the above handle in a gunship uses one hand, but tup is clinging with two.
