Question time: The cast of We Are having multiple people who usually play the supportive friend role playing romantic leads this time around has me thinking...

Are there any supporting actors that you would like to see in a main role, for whatever reason?

Especially as part of the lead couple.

@BlandGLdramas

(Natch, with the understanding that there are plenty of meaty roles that don't require being the romantic lead -- and in fact some supporting roles fit that bill.)

I realize this may seem obvious but from what Iā€™ve seen on lives, some people have difficulty with this, and Iā€™m trying not to be a jerk about it, so:

Itā€™s okay to be sad that two artists whom you are used to collaborating together, stopped. Itā€™s okay to have an emotional reaction when your faves break up.

From idols groups, to acting ships, to a world famous dancing duo who were openly a couple, quietly breaking up, personally and professionally.

Itā€™s okay to feel.

That part is ok

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

However, going into these peopleā€™s spacesā€” their socials, their lives ā€” any context in which you can communicate with them, and venting those emotions is not okay.

We do not see the full picture, but odds are they are dealing with their own feelings about what happened. Decisions like that are rarely easy.

Find a fandom space to process your emotions, bc the artists are doing their own processing.

Itā€™s not helpful to themā€”or youā€” to process your stuff at them.

@emmaaum people will take what they want out of a series, and that wonā€™t always be the same thing.

However, yeah: when it reaches a point where people forget that underneath it all is a whole human being with their own emotions and experiences, and donā€™t exist just to play out their desires, it gets not fun.

For example: Fan reaction to NetJamesā€™s ā€œbreak upā€ (James left acting entirely) has included a lot of whining/complaining to Net about it during his insta livestreams.

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

@emmaaum thatā€™s not what I was saying? Nor do I think you need to withdraw anything, even if it was.

Though there are parts I donā€™t fully understand, and possible aspects I donā€™t agree with.

I did want to give you an example, as a literal response to the imagine bit, to see if it aligned with expectation.

The extra bit was about personal experience. Iā€™ve been part of couples that were treated as social anchors, and dealt with the dehumanizing fallout of breaking up in that situation.

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

@emmaaum i donā€™t know the full picture of your experience, so i canā€™t say what you should or shouldnā€™t have done. FWIW, I prefer you genuinely engaging, and us working things out in moments like these.

Thank you for explaining where you are coming from. I see now how it was dismissive, and Iā€™m sorry.

I didnā€™t have a full sense of what you meant, and i was nervous about pulling the thread bc Iā€™ve made you feel alienated before. Instead i alienated you with a truism. Thatā€™s on me. Sorry.

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

@emmaaum Thatā€™s fair and Iā€™ll do my best to keep it in mind. Definitely relate in the words getting hard front, though for different reasons.

Iā€™m glad weā€™re good. :blobcathuggies:

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

@borzoiteeth Thanks!

It was inspired by whatā€™s been going on currently with Net & James, as James has left acting. Some NetJames fans have decided to react to the news by coming into Netā€™s insta lives and basically tell him to get James back.

But really, itā€™s for any fandom. Like, on the off chance that someone just needs to be told in order to understand why itā€™s not a good idea to do stuff like that.

Especially with another pair possibly working on their last show together.

started watching The Gifted yesterday. very well regarded Thai supernatural mystery series set in a high school.

have any of you seen it? interested in starting it with me?

Nanon (peeved with school but not existentially grumpy), Sing (friendly sidekick) & Chimon (freakishly smart & a real pain) in main roles; Gun is listed as main role but hasn't done anything yet. AJ & JJ are also in it.

@emmaaum Iā€™ve been meaning to watch this one. Iā€™ll see if I can knock something off my current watching list today.

I let you know tomorrow if I succeed.

@emmaaum I did manage to catch some of it today. Itā€™s already starting with an interesting conversation between Pang and his roommate. Iā€™m a bit tired to articulate it but that whole thing is a topic dear to my burnt out former gifted kid heart. lol

@massivelyop itā€™s funny.

I was trying to sort out what impact, if any, equity crowdfunding would have on player toxicity (of the ā€œI funded this, thereforeā€¦ā€ variety), compared to conventional crowdfundingā€¦

Only to get blindsided by the company toxicity of Portalarium. :blobcatthumbsup:

glitchontwitch, to writing
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

You know that one of the most difficult things for me and is?

Making decisions.

When writing, thereā€™s a certain amount of collapsing possibilities, things that depend on other things so the more things are set, the more they set other things in order to be a cohesive whole.

Even just writing a scene narrows it down from the nebulous idea of the scene.

And that part is tricky for me. I have a habit of writing multiple versions of a scene. But that just makes branching stories.

I am currently seperated from my beloved Chromecast and TV so have to make do without my Youku, WeTV and iQIYI. So I am rewatching Ancient Detective. I watched it many moons ago in a very chaotic fashion, so I made a promise to rewatch it, but slower. It's even better than I remember - a detective tale, very classic in its set up; focuses on brotherhood and fighting between sects, the whole deal. Every character is unique! If you've not watched it, give it a try!

In my experience, it is a mistake to allow engineers to design user interfaces.

There are people who specialize in designing user interfaces. Hire those for your project.

Even if the engineers tell you they can do it better.

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

@emmaaum @tofugolem I tried to sort out what the designers were trying to convey andā€¦ Iā€™m lost.

At this point, I canā€™t even pretend that group conflation is happening in anything resembling good faith or as an ā€œhonest mistakeā€.

It is specifically being used to warp the story.

And itā€™s happening all over the place.

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

@emmaaum yeah. And Iā€™ve just reached this kind of breaking point, watching the cycle, and watching people exploit it.

Maybe at some point I will be able to, but right now, itā€™s hard to deal with in any way thatā€™s productive.

glitchontwitch,
@glitchontwitch@ohai.social avatar

@massivelyop while definitely not his intent, he just illustrated an issue with huge publicly traded companies producing games.

Growth and profit arenā€™t the same. Heā€™s not saying that the games wonā€™t make money. Just that it wonā€™t be in the ever increasing amounts demanded by people whose only investment in those games is their literal investment.

Iā€™m not always camp ā€œindie is better,ā€ but when it comes to profit expectations and definitions of successā€¦ it just might be?

@emmaaum @Erzbet same ā€” well, the locked out bit. It exists but errors out on login attempt.

Iā€™m more annoyed that the site itself is sealed up the way it is. But getting into the account would be a workaround.

@emmaaum @Erzbet and in theory, we could always ask someone to post a recap or two. coughs loudly :blobcatinnocent:

@JillsJoy itā€™s like, Iā€™m too distractible for anything else. Unless itā€™s short clips of fan stuff, but even that is hit or miss. Oops. :blobcatsip:
