#hello dumb tma tag rant incoming becauee I'm still going with my hyperfixation bullshit#I saw this tiktok a few days ago talkimg about the fear classifications that I keep thinking about and it just annoyed me#it was saying jonny went back on what he said about things not being tied specifically to one fear or something like that#talking about when Jon asked Leitner what fear bones fit into#and said that he ignored hisbown thing by giving the fears specific things tied to them like the desolation and fire#and I'm just.....first off do ypu think maybe Leitner's comments were just because fucking BONES is a shittty example#and Jon maybe just asked him a stupid question that therefore had a complecated answer#second did we not listen to the same They're Like Colours speach from Gerry because I feel like that sums this stuff up pretty good#like yeah the line between red and purple is really fuzzy and undefined and hard to judge#and some shades are still Definitely red and some and still Definitely purple#some things just are what they are and don't fit as nicely into other boxes#yes fire got linked pretty exclusively to Desolation but where the hell else does it fit#ypu could MAYBE swing it to slaughter or flesh but it only kinda makes sense there#yes the sky is almost entirely Vast but THE VAST DEALS WITH THE FEAR OF FALLING AND HEIGHTS WHAT DO YOU EXPECT#not to mentioned that from a story telling stand point it just makes sense to have certain things that go together like that#it makes sense to have symbols for a listener to connect with a concept that is a pretty standard writing feature#listen there are plenty of accurate and valid criticism for Jonny and TMA#and I wpuld not even try to argue with those because it is not my place and again they are accurate and need to be said#but I will defend the fear classification system in all its imperfect glory#because I am a nearly graduated bio major with a weirdly deep love of taxonomy so that shit is right up my alley#anyway this was stupid and pointless but I juat needed to say my peace with thia
