Getting tired of untested vibecoded ports that are just buggy and because no experienced coders are around, they can't fix it? Never fear, as I have listed decomps and recomps done by actual people and it will continue expanding! If you know any, lemme know!

Please don't walk up to me and talk to me about how cartoons used to be good (and it just so happens to line up with when you were a kid) and now they're not. You're wrong, you're insulting me and my friends, but I'm not gonna argue about it in a polite setting. So it's just awkward. Please don't.

Others have said it previously, but I love how this promotional image from the 1990 Stephen King's IT looks like a prestige drama courtroom show, that just so also happens to involve a clown.

It’s a lot of young people raised online, well before they can understand how complicated morality really is and - importantly - before they can see that complexity in themselves. From experience, the realization that you, too, fall under a shade of grey is *crushing* if you’re used to moralizing.

this tumblr post (sheogayrath.tumblr.com/post/6394373...) is evergreen across any popular microblogging platform, but i think to update it for 2026 you would replace the use of a mocking "uwu uwu" to make a normal statement sound cringe with a mocking "i love the le hecking quirk chungus ocean"
An MS Paint mockup of two nonexistent Tumblr posts written in Comic Sans.

Post 1, from waterlover1998 (with a drawing of the shoreline as their avatar): "i wish i lived near the ocean. i love the sound of waves and walking on the beach at sunset :)" (a lot of notes)

Post 2, a reblog chain shared by deeplyunpleasantperson (whose avatar is a stock photo of a grinning white dude with gelled hair and sunglasses) and reblogged from rudeindividual:

nastyman: 'uwu i love the ocean fucking waves seashells foam sandcastles seaweed uwu uwu' shut the fuck up lmao i'm gonna kill you

differentperson: what's wrong with the ocean

nastyman: lmao lmao get off your fucking high horse looks like someone needs to log off! go outside loser shut up. 'i love the sound of waves' well i love the sound of pussy because i fuck like a champ. cringe

(a lot of notes)

a great dissection of why a lot of fandom drama doesn't only boil down to "these people are thinking too much about [insert series here] and need to touch grass." there's another layer to the way folks get obsessed (for parasocial/self-important rewriting/clout reasons, etc) that gets glossed over
by asneakyfox on tumblr:

one big thing i think people outside fandom (like, all fandoms, fandom in general, not any particular one) tend to misunderstand is they know it's a subculture of people who are weirdly deeply invested in fictional media, and they hear about drama caused by people in those subcultures being unhinged in not-fun ways, and they think the unhingedness comes from the fact of being overinvested in works of fiction.

which is a natural assumption, but in my experience that's not really the case? like in my experience the drama llamas in fandom are usually not the ones who are just genuinely very deeply into the fiction. i've known people who are basically thinking about star trek or x-men comics or supernatural pretty much 100% of their free time and ime that type of person is usually very nice and surprisingly functional in their regular life. when someone's a constant nexus of fandom drama it's usually not that they are obsessed with the actual work of fiction the fandom is about, it's at least one of the following:

what they're obsessed with is not the source material but their unhealthy parasocial relationships with one or more of the people who created it

what they're obsessed with is not the source material but some elaborate shared-universe subset of fanfic about it that's only barely related to the original at this point, and/or an esoteric reading-against-the-text reinterpretation of the source material (often if the canon is active and ongoing this leads to becoming actively hostile toward it for its inevitably increasing failure to conform to their preferred fanon)

what they're obsessed with is not the source material but the fandom itself and gathering clout within it, so that the source material basically only exists to them as a tool for scoring points in increasingly arcane fandom disputes

and very often you get the same person doing 2 and sometimes even all 3 of these, and that's where the trouble really starts.

I always have kind of mixed feelings about framings of the indie scene as like, a sort of artistic paradise or a thing that is free of the constraints of capitalism. I feel like it's a framing that feels more based in the illusions of indie game the movie et al than it's ever felt based in reality

my favorite part is that this scene is very important in the 2000s-era Star Trek vs. Star Wars debates. There are entire articles about this scene, and it's solely arguing about the rules of the debate and not believing that there can be any non-linear elements in a star wars movie
