#『 messages : interactions. 』

"Tell your favorite creators that you like their work, people usually enjoy things silently, but hate tends to be loud"

This is a phrase I just heard from Dnd shorts that captures perfectly why I often try to make the effort of commenting on posts and telling people that I enjoy their work and why Even to small creators, I advice everyone to make the extra effort to tell them, I can guarantee it makes all the difference in the world, it's not cringy or obnoxious, it'll just brighten someone's day

losing my actual mind rn

i had this interaction in the dropout discord (i am the first and third person). short. simple. i only got the first year bc of a discount + a gift card i had, so i was planning on using this person's suggestion.

then, i got this.

oh my god!! how nice!! how sweet!!! how thoughtful!! i gave them my email and they sent over a subscription, i thanked them profusely. i was very grateful, very touched.

hours and hours later i was still thinking about it and i recalled how, in the email id gotten about it, it said "tao yang sent you a subscription" and id seen that and thought "oh haha like the tao yang" and then moved on

but now, thinking back, i was like.... theres no way, so i googled tao yang.

......

TAO YANG BOUGHT ME A FUCKING ANNUAL DROPOUT SUBSCRIPTION

All this aroace character shipcourse has proven to me that a majority of people that interact in fandom cannot actually interact with characters and media outside of shipping and genuinely I believe you need to learn how to interact with media outside of shipping.

talking about the topic of animated movies not Hitting, I accidentally reminded myself of one time on twitter, I think around the time that Raya came out?? I was poopooing on how much the dragon looks like elsa, and then talked about how I wish 2d animated and hand animated films were still The Medium instead of nothing but the highest resolution skin texture fur textured 3d animated films bc I'm tired of seeing it, etc etc and then someone who I was not mutuals with, they must've been someone working under the disney IP in some form, and must've either done some work on raya or just worked on 3d animated projects in general, replied to me SEVERAL TIMES as if I was subtweeting them, with something to the tone of "just say you hate me and you think my art is trash" and I think about that ALL the time

[leminaus]

Hey there love your art sm :3 i have a teeny request if you could draw pokespe yellow&sapphire... i seriouosly love the idea of their dynamic since theyre both HUGE on nature but theres never really anybody who draws them :( or even sapphire with any of the other dexholders.. (especially gold&yellow) since shes always kind of paired with ruby (dont get me wrong theyve been my otp for almost a decade..) it would be kind of cool to see more art w her and othee characters !! Its seriously okay if you dont really want to draw this as idk its up to you everybody has their own stuff in life. But i hope you continue to enjoy drawing and posting !!! Regards :3

I found this scene in particular so odd and out of place in the new episode. Apart from the fact that Stolas has no right to be angry at Blitz for "not saving him" when Striker kidnapped him nor to be upset that he didn't tell him about Striker's attempt at shooting him. In Loo Loo Land he's perfectly capable of defending himself (even when he hired Blitz for protection!), why is he complaining that an imp, the lowest class on the hierarchy isn't protecting one of the highest?

In that scene Stolas accuses Blitz of not understanding "how much he cared about him", but has he forgotten that he was the one who couldn't stand up not to Asmodeous nor to the accusations of him "sleeping with an imp"?

This reaction shows the actual opposite of what he's telling Blitz he did.

I read that Stolas is supposedly also not aware of ~things~ but why is the narrative conveniently forgetting about his faults as well?

Onto the "apology tour" subject: I fail to understand why Blitz owes Stolas an apology. The only time he was shitty to him was actually in Ozzie's when he asked him on a (fake) date without telling him all the story. But they didn't talk about that not during that episode neither during Apology Tour. Is it because doing this would have forced the narrative to acknowledge that also Stolas was at fault during that episode?

All the other times they interacted (on and off screen, their chats don't really mean anything since it seems that's the way Blitz writes in general), Blitz was being good to him (not that he had any other choice, due to their society ranks and their deal).

To me, this looks like bad writing. But if someone has a different take, I'm happy to hear their interpretation.

Transcript of q!Slimcicle’s conversation with ElQuackity after the QSMP Dinner because I’m going crazy:

TIMESTAMP 27-28/07/2023 Slimecicle POV, 2:05:44 

Q: Why did you do that? Why did you do that?

S: Because it started as this thing between you and me and me trying to vicariously live through this weird family fantasy and uh, it kind of evolved man. and Gegg.. I was just Gegg and Gegg was just me. Gegg was something in me and for some reason now I dont feel that thing anymore. It feels like I uh feels like Gegg's gone

Q: But Gegg is my son. Gegg is my son

S: Well there's these lil guys [gestures to the Gegg clones]

Q: You can't. You can't leave this behind

S: We shouldn't have done that. We shouldnt have - I'm glad we got Gegg because of that but uh... Idk what he was

Q: No nononono you're viewing it the wrong way I think there's more to Gegg.

S: maybe there was

Q: What are you going to do now?

S: Well uhm... Guess I'm going to so something I'm pretty scared to do for a while. Just... Try and be me

Q: Are you sure?

S: No. no I'm not... [they get distracted by a poppy for a bit]

Q: Is that it for Gegg?

S: I think that depends on all of us. I didn't always have control over what was going on when Gegg was out, but I know one thing. I know that Gegg wanted change, and Gegg wanted what was best for everyone, and Gegg wanted to know - I think Gegg knows that inside all of us there's a spark of Gegg and uhm. Maybe there's a lil spark in Gegg in you too. 

S: And at the end of the day I'm just Gegg's campaign manager.

Note that ElQuackity was also whispering to Slime in chat throughout this

Q: (Help me win this) Q: (I have special priveleges no other would have) Q: (Keep talking) (Don’t make it suspicious) Q: (I’ll introduce you to some people just help me) Q: (Just include the word mariachi in some phrase If you say yes)

To which Slime does.

okay, wow, I’m not publishing that ask, anon.

I need you to understand that online activism only reaches people who are also online.

And it only reaches people who, in our current algorithm-based internet, are actually shown that content.

When you do online activism that’s not something concrete like a petition, you’re spreading information and awareness. That’s super important.

But it’s also like, step one of twelve, and unfortunately it’s where most of us just stop. We share information and news and share guilt tripping posts and we say things should be different and we tell other people that things are terrible and we carry on and most of it makes no real-world difference at all.

I don’t know how to tell you that you have got to do local, real life activism if you want to make any change.

You have got to pay attention to your school boards and judges.

You have got to campaign for local candidates.

You have to encourage locals to run for office, or run for office yourself.

You have to volunteer your time and energy for real local causes and groups.

You have to get acquainted with your local news sources so you know who to reach out to when word needs to be spread about something important.

You have to call and contact and petition your local officials, you need to put up flyers where your actual community will see, you need to get aquatinted with local resources so you know where to direct people who need them.

You have to actually do activism irl. That is how you make change happen.

Any time you spend arguing with online users about activism and not doing enough could be spent actually making a difference in your literal real life community, or helping the people who do.
