  • Like, I’m the sperm donor, not the one who carried them for nine months.

    Neither of my moms birthed us and that doesn’t make them any less of moms. And we don’t even talk to the person who birthed us (we probably have talked to our formally anonymous sperm donor more recently and are on better terms with him). You shouldn’t let irrelevant things make you feel like you are less of a mom. If its a compromise for your children, that seems like a good enough reason to accept “dad”, but you shouldn’t feel like you would be an imposter (or you should at least realize those feelings aren’t rational).



  • The live-action “adaptation” of Death Note wasn’t terrible. Calling it an adaptation is a bit generous (more like a separate story in a similar universe) and it nowhere near lives up the source material. But it was alright - seems mostly just hated because of people’s expectations of what it claimed to be an adaptation. In general, media that differs significantly from the source material (even if the source material didn’t exist at the time, like with Fullmetal Alchemist) gets more hate than it deserves.

    Black Bullet seems to have some really negative opinions, but I’m a fan of that genre of shows like Tokyo Ghoul where main characters are some sort of social pariah because of non-human features (guess I find them relatable).

    Non-animated, but “In Time” 2011 was a movie I enjoyed quite a bit, but found out later that people generally have a slightly negative view of it I think.
