#Club Etiquette

[ilikefelines]

Just found out CrazyTom had to stop making F&B/HotD art because crazy stans from a certain team were stalking/bullying her for drawing art of Team Green character's. To those stans, especially the ones who tried to weaponize accusations of racism against the artist, you're all rabid and need to learn some manners. Shipping Jaehaera with Aegon III, an actual canon marriage, is not racist.

Do you know what's really racist - a white women forcing her husband to leave under the subtle threat that if he didn't her uncle would kill him, to pave the way for their incestuous marriage (people who think it was consensual and he left of his own will, you truly have a brain rotted take, he literally had just sworn himself to Rhaenyra and promised to do better, loved his dragon and family and definitely didn't want to abandon them for his boytoy ESPECIALLY after his sister's death) and a white woman having a black man murdered so her bastard son could usurp a black family's seat.

Bring that same energy to Rhae-Rhae and then we'll talk. Oh wait. You won't because you don't actually care about the shows black character's, you were just salty that a talented artist depicted Team Green character's, even though she included the TB kids and did a lovely drawing of Daenaera. You rabid animals are the reason we can't have nice things, and the reason fandom has become so toxic. Like, imagine bullying someone for drawing fanart? Truly y'all have sunk to a new low. Watch yourselves. It's on sight.

yall want my hot take? I don't think gale would be a good dad. I think he would be good with and like kids but that's not the same as parenting. like. u know kids are generally really bad at things and kinda dumb compared to adults right? I think realistically having to stay quiet when a 3 year old was really really REALLY wrong about something would give him a stress induced ulcer skjrdkkddn

As before, it's highly encourage to leave positive feedback for our wonderful and talented writers:

After all, fanfic is a lover letter to Fandom and what better way to say "Thank you" than to let them know in a review? Encouragement goes a long way!

Actually, your answer makes a lot of sense, and has given me a new perspective on the issue of the #Problematic. Due to personal trauma, I've always been very wary of those who enjoy certain problematic media, because I assume that means they support it, which is clearly an assumption that I need to work on. Hadn't considered that I enjoy problematic stuff myself, and criticize it. Being aware of the problematic and not replicating that on Real Life is enough when dealing with fiction.

Anyway, thanks for a good dosis of self-awareness.

Yeah, it's a messy and complicated issue. Because I recognize that, for example, women who say "a guy who mentions on the first date that his favorite movies are Taxi Driver and American Psycho is sending up a red flag" are probably onto something. And I've had students tell me "the Joker from The Joker makes some really good points", and I've felt a prickling of discomfort at their words.

But. I love Fight Club. The movie is a darkly funny critique of the alienation of capitalist life. The book is a brilliant horror story, written by a gay man raised by a single mom who wanted to understand why "masculinity" is considered this fragile thing that must be defended with violence, as someone who was himself shut from qualifying for the precious "man card." I got hooked on horror from Fight Club, I've written imaginary-friend-as-boogeyman as a result of Fight Club, I cosplayed as Tyler Durden in high school, I drove an hour to see Chuck Palahniuk speak... and I'm only spending an entire paragraph defending my love for Fight Club because I know what it looks like and that fragile part of me is tempted even now to scream I'm not one of THOSE guys, I swear!

So, I think it's best to recognize that my opinions can make other people uncomfortable, and that other people aren't having opinions at me. Even the people who like James Bond or Gone with the Wind might do so out of ignorance, or willingness to forgive sexism because of good cinematography, and the best thing for it is just to disengage from the conversation and find other people to talk to.

Which is where the internet can be nice. I fully support blocking and muting people whose opinions make me uncomfortable. I support others blocking and muting me. In fact, my most-used reason for blocking someone is that I'm unsure whether or not I qualify for their DNI (do not interact) list. I can't tell if I'm a BNHA Apologist or not... guess I'd best not interact. I googled KL//Ance Shipper but nothing came up, and I might support KL and Ance's romance... guess I won't interact. So on. I never hear from them, they presumably never hear from me, and we're all so much happier than we would be if we got into a shouting match over Your Fave is Problematic.

{Duman}: Hey, Ogron, how come we don’t spend two minutes transforming before each fight?

{Ogron}: Because it’s a spectacular waste of time.

{Duman}: Ah.

{Duman}: Follow-up question: when the Winx are transforming before each fight, how come we don’t just defeat them then?

{Ogron}: …

{Duman}: Sometimes I think you just act like you know what you’re doing.

It is, of course, abominably rude to respond to an invitation with "who else will be there?"

[rabbits-of-negative-euphoria]

"The life of the flaunting coquette, is one continued scene of stratagem and deceit. Those rare qualities of being a good housewife and economical mistress, are not the butt at which she aims. A domestic life, in her estimation, is odious; and she quits the sober and diligent services of home, for the flirtings of gaiety, the opera, balls, masquerades, and assemblies, with a thousand other species of amusement, in which she can display her foibles, and be the gazing-stock of the surrounding multitude. Full of intrigues, deceit, and hypocrisy, she pretends to one what she dissolves next moment in her protestations to another, and thus all are deceived, and yet none desert her standard. Her dalliance with one, excites the other to strong emotion; and thus she holds in power, and at her pleasure, a whole string of the flippant-minded gentlemen."

The Etiquette of Love and Courtship, 1850

just finished good omens s2. i'm in so much fucking pain and agony

Its kind of fascinating to see the most recent intersection of not only Reddit and Tumblr, but of TikTok and Tumblr. There are people on Tumblr who are only just getting the chance to interact with John Green as more than a legend of a darker time in Tumblr's history. And while John was only a legend here,, he has been one of the hearts of multiple TikTok communities for years, and its great to see them learn who John Green really is.

There are people who have never read his books who will be exposed to them now.They get to find out about Tuberculosis and Socks and Coffee, and how genuine of a person John is. How he'll delete his posts if they make him too anxious and how we support him in that.

In some ways for me John's previous experience on Tumblr serves as one of the most visible reminders that everyone we interact with on the hellscape that is the internet is a person first and foremost, and anonymity and humor are no excuse to treat people badly.

Boom here's the reveal. Gotta have a meme-y sticker in there. I call it Link's New Ability. And then there are some accent stickers in the mix, to fill some space. That leaves 4 left! I might have to go back and increase the size of everything (sheet included) to fit everything in.

Sub anytime in May to get these in ur mailbox. (I also introduced the double sticker club, for those who want extras).

This is why Book Club exists!

If you want me to reblog your Megamind fic/art, feel free to tag me! 8D

Why do you reblog your own fics so much?

Because someone might as well!? And look at this. Look. At. This.

Does this look right to you??

These are just the last three fics I wrote. I appreciate the likes, believe me I do, but you have to understand. Likes do nothing for content creators. It’s the reblogs. Because that’s how you find shit on your dashboard. Through reblogs. Not likes. This isn’t twitter or tiktok or instagram. This is a website that’s run by the reblog system.

Reblogging helps content creators put their stuff out there. Why do you think so many people stopped writing fanfic and creating beautiful fanart and edits? It’s because they put in hours of work and don’t get nearly enough notes for their masterpieces. Yes we do this because we enjoy it but like...some validation won’t hurt. A boost of confidence here and there might be all someone needs to finish whatever thing they started and left.

Anyway, I’m still going to reblog my shit...

Commonsense Etiquette for Pull Carts

Pull carts are very common on the golf course. I think I see more people pushing their clubs around the course vice carrying. However, this article will cover carrying etiquette as well. Many people think that because I am pushing their clubs that little to no damage can happen to the golf course. This thinking is folly and consideration needs to be given to your playing partners and to…

Boosting this in hopes it reaches one or two people who missed the memo recently.

Rule one of fandom: there are some things that only exist for us.

Don’t send actors fics

Don’t give them explicit art ever

Don’t tag them in rpf questions or theories

Don’t try to bring them into fandom drama of any kind

Don’t hold them responsible for what the producers and writers decide

They’re still people.  They have private lives, which do not include fandom.
