“it’s not fair” seems to be a theme of the season especially in how the people around the bad kids don’t seem to realize that it’s not fair for them either.
cassandra doesn’t realize it’s not fair to kristen that she’s a teenager with a life and other responsibilities who is the sole being keeping a god alive.
the rat grinders don’t realize that it’s not fair that they get to xp level with critters while the bad kids have to save the world. they don’t take into account how each of them have died before and/or watched their best friends die while coming extremely close to death. the bad kids have experienced so much pain and exhaustion and they don’t even get the special treatment that the rat grinders have accused them of.
porter straight up ignores how gorgug is going to struggle with a 400% courseload because he took a hit to his pride. he sees a student so passionate that he’s willing to do four years of school in one and doesn’t think to cut him a little bit of slack.
it’s not fair that adaine grew up with shitty parents and now has to work eight hours a day to pay for her equipment in exchange for getting rid of them. it’s not fair that kristen has to dedicate everything to a god at 16 years old when she has so much else she needs and wants to do. it’s not fair that gorgug has taken on a 400% courseload because of porter’s pride. it’s not fair that fig is cursed to be unlucky and has something going on that she doesn’t understand at all. it’s not fair that he has to work so much harder to get into college and has to manage his entire party because they aren’t as passionate about school as he is. it’s not fair that fabian was abandoned by his mother and is so, so goddamn lonely or that he had to kill his father.
and while everyone else is whining about how unfair everything is (except for cassandra who is valid in her concerns), the bad kids have taken everything in stride. they don’t complain to anyone even though they absolutely have the right to, not even each other.
adaine refused to tell her dad about the things she needed, despite the fact that he would have helped, and got a job. kristen takes the blame for hurting cassandra and keeps dropping the ball because she can’t handle everything and feels so guilty. gorgug took the courseload because he’s so passionate about the things he wants to do and is trying his goddamn best to keep up with it. fig hasn’t talked to anyone about her confusing situation until it caused major problems because she was going to suffer it in silence. riz plasters on a smile and takes everything that he can get in hopes of it impressing schools. fabian hints to his friends that he wants people at his house but never confides in them or questions his parents even though they both had so many issues.
it’s especially not fair that none of them feel like they’re allowed to say it’s not fair. that they take everything in stride until they will someday break down.

these are my hot takes and no i will not elaborate on them.
morals dont exist. they’re man made. why should we decide what is considered good or bad.
God is non-binary.
a majority of school expectations are ableist and there is a lot of things that should be stopped in the school system.
we made money. we created it. why the fuck cant we just make more if we need so we aren’t in debt. we’re the ones who made up inflation for it, we did that, we created that, so we can also destroy that.
if you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community, you don’t have to have some sort of “official” coming out thing. You don’t need to have a big talk with your parents or friends if you don’t want to. You can quietly come out, or not at all. You can also come out multiple times, thats okay too.
Children owe their parents absolutely nothing, because they did not ask to be born.
It’s okay to not have a partner or significant other in your life. You don’t need someone to grow old with.
We should stop using small talk, and just jump straight into big talk.
Making one object be the basis of your entire personality is annoying. Don’t do that.
Jesus would have been at the BLM protests if he were here, and he would have been fighting for equal rights.
Art can be pretty much anything. It doesn’t have to be good.
Being called an old soul isn’t a compliment, it’s just telling someone that their trauma is noticeable.
School should not be so enforced. There are jobs you can get that don’t need school and are still decent pay.
Living with your parents at an older age should be normalized. Parents who kick their kids out at 18 are evil and should not do that shit.
Winter is superior for multiple reasons, but those reasons have nothing to do with Christmas.
I don’t care if your love language is physical touch, don’t force touch onto people unless you know it’s okay. Figure out a secondary love language
Having stuffed animals should not be seen as childish.
Men should be taught to not fucking rape.
Teens should be able to talk with their parents comfortably about sex ed, and shouldn’t get in trouble for wanting to have sex before being an adult.
Being gay doesn’t give you the excuse to be a fucking douchebag.
White people need to be reminded of their privilege way more often.
If you say you support those with mental illnesses and mental disorders, but then get grossed out by what the mental illnesses and disorders cause, you don’t fucking support them. If you’re grossed out because someone says they haven’t been able to shower for a while, or they haven’t brushed their teeth in a week or two, you don’t fucking support them. You only support the traits that don’t bother anyone, like sleeping a lot.
Mental illness and mental disorder organizations should be run by people with those illnesses and disorders; people who don’t have those issues are helping hands in the organizations, not the leaders.
Cut people off if they don’t make you happy. It’s as simple as that.
Magic does exist but it’s not in the way that people would imagine. it’s not like harry potter.
there should be some sort of tv program that shows men what it’s like being a woman, and how terrifying it can be.
parents should stop sexualising their own childreb.
America is not the best country, nor is it one of the best. It’s considerably one of the worst ones
fucking get rid of guns.
there are too many police officers, we need to cut back on them.
halloween is for all ages. no one should be made fun of for trick or treating because they’re older.
if you wanna be confident, you have to stop giving a fuck about everything and let things go.
dont comment on peoples bodies ever.
the rich should be taxed by a lot.
normalize taking medication for mental illnesses and disorders. dont ask if taking the meds is only temporary, it makes us feel like shit about it.
it is not a good thing if you have no filter when you talk. you need to fucking learn to think before you talk, and fucking learn that people do get offended by what you say because of your “no filter” shit.
if you only reach out to someone when you want to talk about you, and you don’t bother to ask about the other person, you’re not their friend, and you’re a bad fucking friend. if you only reach out to them as a last resort for things, you’re a bad fucking friend. if they’re trying to talk about how they’ve been feeling and you flip it around and make it about you so they’re comforting you instead, YOU’RE A BAD FUCKING FRIEND. if you don’t check in on your friends at all, you’re a bad fucking friend. if you notice that a friend has stopped talking and starting conversations with you, but you don’t do anything, you’re a bad fucking friend.
taking naps are okay and not lazy. it means you’re listening to what your body needs, and if your body says it’s tired during the day, you nap.
it’s okay to not have friends all the time. there are periods of time where you may just have to rely on yourself, and that’s okay.
big friend groups are the absolute worst and no one will ever truly know each other in big groups.
dont shit on people for having what you consider “mediocre jobs”. if they weren’t working, you wouldn’t be able to get your damn happy meal, or get your fucking groceries. so don’t complain about that shit.
everyone should see a therapist at some point in their life.
just because someone has some expensive things in their house, it doesn’t make them rich. you have no idea if they saved money up for years just to get those things.
dont comment on other peoples living conditions and whether they’re poor or rich or in the middle.
we should be able to do a lot more with ourselves without getting judgement (tattoos, hair styles, piercings, clothing styles). as far as we know, we only have this one life, so why should we waste it. and if you personally dont wanna do something like that, dont waste your life fucking judging other people for wanting to do it.
stars should get more attention.
as you can see i have a lot of hot takes. if i have more i’ll add to this lmao
