I actually enjoyed this week in Emmerdale.

Robron wise? It hurt. Seeing Robert and Aaron lose Seb but the acting was great and the writing set up next week beautifully.

So much angst. So much pain. Their growth being put to the test.

I’m convinced Seb will be back by Christmas btw. Until then I’m hoping Robert and Aaron get through this without backsliding too much into old habits. My guess is they get there. It will hurt and they will argue a lot but they love each other. They won’t split easily. They will talk and find their back out through the darkness.

I keep adding “together” (say it like Aaron did in the reunion episode) but it’s true.

Angst and true love. That’s the Robron way.

I think I’m more disappointed that fans of Robron turned on Robert so quickly and so easily. Like they were waiting for it. A reason to talk shit about Robert.

Like Roberts pain and his guilt doesn’t matter. Why he did what he did. Why ask that? We can just ignore the deeper feelings. Give Aaron that look within but Robert is just given a shallow look by fandom.

Both are in pain. Both will find their way out of the pain, together.

This fandoms love for putting Robert and Aaron against each other needs to end. It’s such bullshit.

Both are batshit insane and have really shady pasts but they have a bright future together. It will be bumpy but their time growing into better people while apart will make them stronger husbands. Together.

Get off your high horses. They aren’t ruined, the next set of episodes that no one has seen isnt terrible NOR is Robert “cancelled”.

We can’t control the narrative. We can only enjoy the ride.

1. You are responsible for your own media experience. 

2. There is such a thing as a healthy level of avoidance towards topics that make you feel unwell or even (in a real-life clinical definition of the term) trigger you – but you are the one to actively take care of what you view.

3. Avoiding does not mean policing others.

4. You have no right to tell artists to censor themselves – you may criticize what others do, you may dislike it, that’s fine – but actively asking for censorship when you could easily unfollow or block a person just makes you look incompetent in your use of the internet.

5. Do not give people on tumblr or /any/ website the responsibility for your emotional well-being. Because these people do not even know you so no, you have no right to ask them to take care of you.

The stakes really are higher. The consequences of any of us sitting on the sidelines are more dire.” .. (quote Former President Barak Obama) .. (cartoon Dave Granlund)
