I even
started a thread, thing is: 1) the internet connection on my side regularly shits the bed (thus making proper archiving nearly impossible, so guess I'll have to attach screencaps to next posts IF the Farms remain reachable over here), and 2) Tripps
pooned out and disappeared from tumblr for a few months, then
SUDDENLY. returned with, like, three or four blogs, reviving his original one (oddtripps) and cranking his nsfw shit up to eleven on nnnoisepuppetv3 (all of this WHILE sending half-assed apologies to his ex-mutuals).
I just read it. I'm really confused and freaked out about why someone with this specific traumatic life experience attached to DHMIS SPECIFICALLY. I've seen it, I'm a fan, I know all the details. I think this is a potentially extremely unhealthy situation.
While there is no SA of any sort in DHMIS, every episode has really weird, very uncomfy feeling (but normal for horror and effective) intensely framed, forced torture with gore, characters screaming and poorly fighting back against the attackers, characters yelling at each other (a big one and on their trigger list) and sudden "home invasions" (the appliances and house hold objects start singing and torturing the main 3 characters) in this specific portrayal, it feels as close to rape as you can get without involving sexual references. This does not even touch upon how the main theme of the series is forced child abuse. The yellow guys (sometimes referred to by fanon names David, Doi or Manny) father, Roy, put his kid in this unnatural home and hostile environment to torture him on purpose and its implied that he CREATED it too. The character Roy doesn't ever talk, but he refers to it as "Punishment Land" in official written material. Father's Day is featured as a gloomy, looming, special date/personal 9/11 in this series. In the tv series, there is a the hills have eyes style HUMAN (but still puppet) family where it seems incest or something sinister is implied about their horrible existence/disarrayed and decaying way of living/the way they look, talk and act. This family has a chance to torture our main cast and the episode ends with Roy cannibalizing that family, including 2 small kids, while they yell and scream.
I fail to understand what attracts somebody to Yellow Guy, unlike the other DHMIS guys mentioned. He is not conventionally attractive, doesnt have a body you can twist, humanize or object head-ize to make more attractive and he is a child who I find almost impossible to look at as an adult or ageless. He is EXTREMELY retarded, much worse than Ed from EENE. He identifies as a pig (yes really) and squeals very angrily, autisticly at the red guy and crow in a fight in the credits of an episode. In one episode the red guy and crow have called him a bleeped out slur/swear word, which I remember being implied to be the word retard. I understand the "appeal" of yellow guy x Roy even less. But I will note that this mf didn't invent and probably didn't popularize that ship in case you didn't know.
"The simping over steak" mention brings back a horrible memory of this underage girl Steak selfshipper, who was probably abused irl looking back, writing and drawing more heinous than usual rape art and fics of herself and Steak Guy. I'm not sure if this was worse than the other underage girl who had a huge fetish and obsession for Tony the Clock accelerating time to rot pieces of flesh into big holes with organs showing in their body (kind of like his torture scenes in the series), choking, drugging, raping, kidnapping and killing her in some personal pocket dimension over and over again.
Normal traumatized kids just fantasized about being friends with or adopted and taken away by the Creepypasta family or some shit like that. I haven't seen something of this flavor or degree yet and now my week is worse.
