#I will just block anyone who’s rude about this btw

[thenonbinarydetective]

Do you like the official wayne family adventures? It has everything any batfam fan would want.....But sometimes I feel like they all kinda have the same personality.....shouldn't dick be with titans or starfire....why is he back with Bruce?

EDIT: REMINDER THIS IS MY OPINION. IT IS NOT A DISCUSSION OR ARGUMENT.

It’s what tumblr fanon fans who actively go out of their way to shit on comics wants. To be precise. I’ve been shitting on the behavior of some truly awful people on here for like several years so if anyone reading this is surprised and offended. I don’t care.

No I really don’t like it. The better personalities are the girls really. But even then it’s not great. The boys and Bruce especially are full copy and paste. But honestly that’s the only way they can get what they want to work without digging too deep

That’s kinda the main problem I have with it and many others who do that it’s very surface level fluff rather than actually challenging the “angst” in the comics. I’m only putting it in quotes because to some angst is when it isn’t sunshine and rainbows all the time.

I don’t think it has a good argument, for lack of a better word (still works I just want a different one that I can’t remember rn) for being what it is. And also creating that weirdly rancid, occasionally violent and pretentious fanbase that accuses comic fans of doing that no matter what they say or do. Like some people suck but you dont need essays when people point out flaws in WFA. Of which it has some pretty obvious ones. Aside from batfam characterization their Talia characterization just rubs me the wrong way. Like I know it’s been worse but it’s just not giving what it should.

I think dickbabs is supposed to be canon there or at least people act like it. Idk a lot of their reactions can still read platonic which is why WFA readers try to say it’s batcest. If that answers your starfire question. Technically this should be set at a time where dick wasn’t fully friends with the titans again. Although it’s an au, they could probably just fix that for their obscenely happy go lucky attitude

But if you’re asking why starfire and Roy should be far away from the outlaws title, you’d be right. You can call me dramatic but it was lowkey shitty of them to include them considering the damage it did to their characters. Especially Kory.

Yeah dick should be actually independent. But again it’s family fluff over solid characterization so the umbilical cord isn’t cut yet

It’s negatively effecting comics too. Pushing that coffee Tim bullshit, “feral” Damian, and emotional support dick. The Damian one pisses me off most of all because they really had him pull a knife in a formal affair out of annoyance when that boy was raised an AL GHUL until he went to Bruce. Like if he’s drawing a knife it’s for a formalized duel. Not on an unwitting old woman. But even then I’m not sure I’m forgiving.

Oh and DUKE. Duke gets his own paragraph. Jesus fucking Christ did they do him dirty. Absolute boring cardboard cut out of a child. That also gets mildly sidelined for a comic that began with his narration. I get it’s a group thing but like why did some chapters seem to forget about him completely when they stripped him of every ounce of personality to turn him into a reader insert? God I hate it

There’s a lot of problems with it but apparently when you talk about it you’re in for a “let people enjoy things” lecture from someone who doesn’t actually let people enjoy things. I mean some WFA stans cry webtoon if you talk about the slightest amount of negativity. Claiming they need to be healed. Idk with what because WFA is basically a placebo of a comic

[bonefall]

oh that anon is ABSOLUTELY right wing/conservative. “this website is full of leftists” “i dont usually MIND politics in works”. that second one is especially boggling when warriors cats literally started as a political mystery drama about how murdered the vice president and how tigerclaw hates outsiders and wants to “make thunderclan great”.

I would chance they at least consider themself a centrist, which functionally means slightly right-leaning. In any case, I welcome them to stick around as long as they're respectful of the space and people that frequent it (which so far they have been, since they say they've been around a while), and understand much of what I write about isn't "just" politics but lived experience to me and my audience. I too was a centrist once. Sometimes it's the littlest thing that sets off a wider epiphany for a person.

All people can change. Not all do. But it's cool when they can.

I'm not here to debate (and I recommend others don't either; debate is a sport and persuasion a skill, and sometimes even a recruitment tactic), but anyone can listen if they'd like. If my work is broadly appealing and my arguments are convincing even outside my circle; then good. I take that as a sign that I'm effective at communicating my point.

I do hope to change minds, even if it's in small ways, or at the very least I hope to give people some more insight on the topics I tackle.

While I'm rambling, I will make it clear though that I think just about any piece of art with a narrative will end up with some kind of political point. Anyone who tries to tell you their work is "apolitical" is either ignorant of their own biases, or just dishonest. It's almost as unavoidable as philosophy.

I'm very open about how Better Bones is a project about "fixing" what I feel are the pernicious themes of Warrior Cats. Clearly WC always had them to begin with. Like you mentioned with Tigerclaw's quote there-- that was a line probably taken directly from Margaret Thatcher, who herself likely heard it from Ronald Regan.

(that all said, 90% of the time when someone says "politics in works" they're usually gesturing at "things that make me think of the culture war." Only the things they, personally, clock as being "out of the ordinary" by their own standard of politics... such as, "has too many women" or "said war is bad but in a way i dont like")

[glitteringpeachy]

They just like me

I headcanon Noelle uses they/she (mostly they) and is asexual. I was gonna make her aroace like me but I don't really wanna take away her thing with susie so yeah asexual rep lol

[majorgreenpenguin-gt]

Yeah they replied to a post I made several years ago & I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable about it. Not only because it was old as hell but because there were literally no GTMS related tags on that post? I know I barely post on here but still pretty weird since I'm a small, nearly dead blog.

Now that I think of it their reply came off as really tone-deaf to the entire post I made:

"To see something you probably loved making, twisted to something else and not feeling the same joy of writing those characters. Not having the same amount of freedom and control that you used to with your story."

That amped up to 100 now that I've found out that @unicornofgt clearly did not want this or approve of this.

All I got to say on the matter is that this comes off as extremely disrespectful regardless on whether or not this was done with good intentions. Like you said: For shame.

Ok nvm found more posts & comments they made & actually fuck them! 🖕

"Unicorn isn't coming back I'm simply filling the vacuum."

Is that really how you think of us? (If you're not a troll that is.)

Us artists & writers in the community? As things that make content to satisfy an audience? That you throw away & dehumanize the second you don't get your slop? How vile do you gotta be to go against the creators wishes & dehumanize writers like this? No fucking wonder that Unicorn left holy fuck!

I can't believe the amount of blogs that I admired liking the posts of the gtms copycat blog. Shame on you. Shame on you. Shame. On. You.

[playstation-dreamcast]

Hey so I'm going to make this as absolutely non-judgmental as possible, but I've been seeing a lot of people complaining about certain content in the tags again. I see more of those posts than I do the content people are talking about.

And look man, you absolutely DO NOT have to be okay or comfortable with seeing that kind of content. It's natural for it to make you feel kinda icky, especially of you have some trauma related to it. I get it.

But trying to censor the internet is a sysaphian task that you are not up to. You're only going to end up making yourself feel more bitter and angry and you're going to have a hard time enjoying the media you love because of it. You need to learn how to curate your own online experience.

So this is how you do it.

STEP ONE: BLOCK THE TAG:

Oh no! You've seen something and you didn't like it! That sucks! What do you do now?

1. Go to your tumblr homepage (this is for mobile btw but I can make one for desktop if wanted)

And click on the little gear icon (this is my main Blog btw)

2. Go to your account settings

Helpfully highlighted for you here.

3. Go to "Content You See"

You can manage a lof of your online experience under this tab btw

4. Go "Filtered Tags" and type in the tag you want to filter

AND VOILA!!! You won't be seeing anything tagged with that anymore!!!

"BUT AIDEN WAIT" I hear you cry, "WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO DONT PROPERLY TAG THEIR CONTENT?!"

That is a major problem and those people suck!! So what do we do when we come across them??

STEP TWO: BLOCK THE USER

You fucking block them. It's not rude, it's not "losing" its just protecting you piece. Here's how

1. Click on the tumblr users name. Here's a rando I found on my dash

This will take you to their page.

2. Click the little person icon

You know the one!

3. Hit the block button.

It's right there. So pretty, so beautiful. Block button my beloved, I use her liberally.

Note: DO NOT HARRASS PEOPLE. DO NOT ANNOUNCE YOUR DEPARTURE, THIS IS TUMBLR NOT A FUCKIN AIRPLANE.

Harassing people because you don't like their content isn't going to make them stop posting it. Most times it makes them double down. All your doing is getting yourself worked up over nothing. It's hateful.

Just block them and move on with your day. You're going to feel so much better. You don't need to say your final piece, or attack someone about it. It just makes you look bad. Again, trying to censor the internet will get you no where and only hurt yourself more. Just block the tag, block the user, and enjoy the work that you actually like to see in this world. Please.

And if anyone comes into my inbox or at me on this post with any sort of hatefulness, I'll just assume you live a sad pathetic life and block you ✨️✨️ and then I'll go hang out with my chill ass moots and read my fluffy fan fic 💜💜

[certifiedsexed]

Something about how you go "afab and female genitalia tell me nothing" feels oddly pretentious to me?? Is this intentional?? I know that both of these terms can also refer to non-vulva/vagina intersex genitals but still, I think you could word it in a more helpful way. Not to be rude or anything!! Sorry if it came off that way. I don't mean any offense to anyone with this ask (I'm on anon because I'm a pussy-ass bitch who fears I'll get blocked if I breathe wrong when sending an ask)

Anon continued: "Realised I should probably elaborate on what I meant by "helpful" - maybe just going "I presume you're referring to a vulva" instead of two paragraphs. I don't know it just makes me feel stupid. (I didn't send the original ask but I still felt stupid by assuming female genitals meant the typical female genitals. <--that wording is awful sorry.

Again I mean no harm I just have autism and can't word things in nice ways sometimes) (I'm so sorry I'm a fucking mess aaaaaahhh feel free to ignore both of my stupid asks)"

Well, I can tell you first off that I'm not trying to sound or be pretentious. I explain that "AFAB" and "female genitalia" tell me nothing because I want to be communicating as clearly as possible and I don't want to just assume something and not tell someone that's what I'm doing or why.

If I said "I presume you're referring to a vulva" without explaining how I came to that conclusion or why I need to assume in the first place, it just sounds like I'm saying "female genitalia" and "AFAB" are what led me to that conclusion in the first place.

Which they didn't.

I was going to write the post with less specific language first since Anon never specified [especially since female genitalia includes penises and a few questions would've needed slightly more in-depth answers for that] until I reread and processed the question about labias and tampons.

I'm not trying to make people feel stupid and I'm sorry it came off that way.

I try to explain as much as possible when answering asks and I guess sometimes that comes off as if I'm showing off or something but that's genuinely not what I'm trying to do.

My intent was also not trying to shame people if they made assumptions based on "female genitalia" and "AFAB".

I just don't want to make assumptions and fuck up my answers, so I try not to do that. But if I do make an assumption, I also want people to know where and why so that it doesn't become a mess of miscommunication.

I'm sorry that makes you feel bad and I really wish I could help but the alternative you suggested doesn't really work from a clear communication standpoint and I'm not sure what else I could say?

I understand you don't mean this badly, btw!

I appreciate it, I just don't think there's anything I can do. If it helps, I've been told I come off as a weird ass fucker my entire life, so you're not alone there. \o/

i read why you aren't writing for shinee/kibum rn, but why do you still write for jonghyun?? it feels wrong to read about him when it feels like he should be put to rest (in a literal sense) so is there a reason you still do works and requests for him?? ive noticed some other people also decide to write for him still, so this may help me understand that as well

Sorry but this will kinda long to explain 😅 just saying before I start that in no way shape or form is this meant to come off as rude btw🩷

So, to start off; blingers are still extremely active, just like the rest of shawols. Taemints, lockets, MVPs, and flamers, can read fanfics of their bias, they can easily find hc’s for Taemin, Minho, Kibum, or Jinki, but blingers can’t. It’s completely unfair to say that just because he is no longer with us, we shouldn’t still enjoy his content, his music, fanfics, and fanart. Also, I’ve been a shawol for almost two years now and as a taemint/blinger, I want to see people still loving Jonghyun and being able to think of him happily. Talking about him isn’t sad, remembering him isn’t bad, he’s a lot more than just that moment, so writing for him is normal.

Also, I did let people vote to see if anyone would be made uncomfortable by seeing smut written of him and the majority said no, not only did the majority say no but I even got messages from older shawols saying that they’d love to see it. I haven’t posted for SHINee in a while because of my writers block, but I still get asks for him. People want to see it and I like doing it.

And finally, he’s still apart of SHINee. The members themselves constantly acknowledge that SHINee is five, they constantly mention him, from tagging him in their concert posts, talking about him, making jokes about him, and he’s always included in every SHINee event. So, for me and others who also write for him and who are still active blingers it’s just including all the members because at the end of the day, SHINee will be five no matter how long it’s been. Saying that he should be put to rest kinda sounds like you mean that people should just move on and forget him, but it would be a shame to let all of his amazing music fade into nothing. Micheal Jackson still has active fans who listen to his music, draw him, write fan fictions about him, edit him, and make the most downbad tweets about him I’ve ever seen. The fans will be there no matter where the artist goes, and Jonghyun is the same way. No matter if he’s here or not, we as fans will always be here enjoying his music and loving him. Remembering him and enjoying his music isn’t disturbing the rest and the peace he’s getting, it’s just appreciating and love him.

[glitterybombshell]

omg thank you for being another sensible fan in the drew fandom. that one girl who continues to hate on drew and odessa’s relationship drives me insane because she treats drew like he’s this angel 😭 THAT IS A GROWN MAN! we do not know these people, and tid bits from photos or 5 second clips doesn’t mean SHITTTT. honestly, if drew’s happy i’m happy. along with that BS thread of odessa being problematic (i know my whole ask makes me seem like i’m some die hard odessa fan, im not, simply just ranting tbh) yet there being no proof of the claims is insane. i truly don’t think odessa is inherently a bad person. one thing about this fandom that has been made very clear is that they don’t actually hate odessa for the “problematic” things she’s done, but they hate her because she has some kind of relationship with drew (whatever it is) and that drew cares about her. i miss 2021 when all these weirdos weren’t in the fandom 😭 anyways i could probably go on and on but i forgot what else i was gonna say but anyways 💁‍♀️💁‍♀️

Thank you anon!🫶

Here’s my opinion (no hate to anyone but it may come off as harsh)

Honestly, I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt cos people were telling her to kill herself and things like that which totally isn’t okay. And I admit in the beginning when she made a post about drew and Odessa she made a comment about Drew’s skinny legs yada yada and I rlly did find it funny.

And honestly I don’t really care for Odessa but I don’t full on HATE her. If we’re talking about the same girl I’m sure she had a link directing to reasons why she doesn’t like Odessa? To me I see it as them trying to compensate with a whole bunch of unsubstantial “reasons” so they don’t seem like bad people for hating on 20 something year old girl.

Btw lemme expand, What I mean by unsubstantial is that there was one like “she uses people” things like that are NOT substantial. Something isn’t an actual reason if it’s your opinion.😭

Honestly people are just going crazy cos it’s this hot man and he has a sex life. Wow! What a shocker! I thought he was a virgin!

Eh but don’t get me wrong she seems pretty sweet aside from her recent posts and she told me I could block her and so I thought about it for a while and I rlly did try to be nice about it because I’m just that type of person but I feel like I shouldn’t rlly be mutuals with someone when we barely have common ground.

So I did what she suggested—and blocked her.

I just don’t like the fact some drew fans treat him like his their baby. That is a 31 y/o man paying taxes sweetheart.

On that note Drew is a grown man. He can fuck whoever he wants and he can go to orgys if he wants to. For all I care he could have sex with Odessa in the middle of the road. Maybe it’s icky but that’s your opinion and she’s able to voice her opinions but it gets to a point where it becomes straight up hate content rather than opinions.

And I mean heavy on what I’m about to say rn:

Just because someone is in the eye of the public does not mean that they need to appeal to the eye public.

Everyone has their bad sides and everyone has their good!! Celebrities can try to act perfect but they lead normal lives like the rest of us.

And I’m trying not to be mean but I do agree with you anon 😭😭

Dw tho, I find jokes funny even the rude ones but straight up negativity being spread and dedicating your whole account to hate someone you claim to love is terrible to me.

At the end of the day. She’s entitled to her own opinion and mine is that Drew could post himself pissin’ on a bitch and id still think his so hot daddy🙌

C’mon guys let’s be better!

[alaskan-wallflower]

Brody showed up to work this week! OMG!!! Does he want a medal?? Josh Boone has a CHILD and he’s in more than Brody.

And I know you’re going to use the shitty excuse “he’s been in a lot!!!” but that’s bullshit. Why are we praising an adult man for showing up to work.

why do you care? why are you bitching about him being absent? and i know you’re gonna use the shitty excuse “Oh BuT hE HaSnT bEeN iN!” but like…he has been? this message is confusing lmfao do you want him to be in or not? you’re insinuating both. make your intentions clear.

im saying its nice that he’s in more is all. if you don’t like what i post or what i say on MY blog mind you then block me.

also i think you should come off anon and talk to me face to face but whatever. be a coward and use the mask of anonymity to hide who you are. i find it funny all these people who are anti outsiders or anti brody choose to stay on anon. like say it to my face. if i can answer you without anonymity have the decency to say this kind of thing to my face.

and btw i’m not praising him for “going to work” im saying it’s nice that he’s in more and seems to be enjoying his job again. and why do his absence matter so much to you? why does it bother you so much that he’s out and that i post about it being a good thing that someone seems to be finally having fun at their job after a rough patch?don’t put words in my mouth.

so cry about it and block me if you’d not like my content. thank you!

(just figured i’d mention by the way that i’m not saying that if you dislike brody you’re automatically on my shit list. everyone is entitled to their own opinions. everyone is allowed to think whatever they want AS LONG AS IT ISNT HURTING ANYONE. but i do think it’s funny how im the one everyone sends anonymous brody hate to like some of the things you anti brody people say about him are WILD. so yes. i will defend him in the reason that nobody should be bitching about his absences or saying rude things, but i absolutely don’t want it to seem like i’m saying that you HAVE to like him. You don’t have to like him but it’s possible to not like him without being a huge jerk to him or anyone who supports him.)

[bffnf]

Haha

Me? Making things harder? Do you hear yourself?

This has happened several times with you. You, unintentionally, do something that makes me uncomfortable, and I, sometimes politely sometimes not, tell you to stop and/or tell you what to do to make me more comfortable. Every time, no matter if it was polite or not, you then proceed to AVOID the issue, DON'T do what I told you you could do, and (unintentionally?) try to guilttrip about it. I don't think I'm the one making things hard here

if you ever see this, i WAS gonna tag it, but i got distracted with other stuff…

Ok, yeah I get it, you can't really help getting distracted. I have ADHD after all, I understand. But, really? Someone is screaming and crying and begging you to tag something and you acknowledge several times of them telling you to tag it (liking and reblogging) and you only do something about it 2 HOURS LATER???

I understand getting distracted but that was such a clearly urgent thing and I was so clearly in distress, you can;t let yourself get distracted from something like that!! Especially since you clearly had the time to reblog the post telling you to tag it MULTIPLE TIMES and still didn't do it

Also, something a friend said that I think is important here

Anyway yeah sorry we're not being friends again. Somehow despite being older than me you're way less mature and I really just don't think we're compatible

Oh btw your friend who sent me an "anon" ask about this a bit ago (@eyes-shining-with-love) was a rude fuck ab it lmfao. Hope they learn this situation was NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS and it was 100% not ok of them to tell me "im in the wrong" and be so rude to me when they didn't even know anything about the situation lol. I even sent them an ask saying hey I don't think when doo asked you to tell niko about this that they meant to SEND THEM A HATE ANON and they never even acknowledged the ask (putting this here just because maybe they'll see 😜 heyyy piper ever heard of this awesome thing called Dont Be Rude To People For Drama You Only Know One Side Of?)

Um, sorry! ✨ /satire

im editing this.

if anyone tags them in this, im blocking you, so they're never gonna read any of this anyways (unless they're stalking my profile rn >:(((( )

I NEVER TOLD THEM TO SEND A HATE ANON

WHY WERE YOU TALKING ABOUT ME IN SOME RANDOM DISCORD SERVER?????

GIVE ME ONE EXAMPLE OF WHEN I TRIED TO GUILTTRIP YOU

[jyndor]

@miraclesabound okay friend you reminded me of something funny. so I took a 6am train to get into DC by like 7:30, so I was there from the jump, and yes it was cold but I dressed appropriately so I didn't really have a hard time with it. and later on, like if anyone has ever been to a big protest you know that when you're in a massive crowd like that you do heat up because you're all close together (and marches are supposed to be close, you're not supposed to let a bunch of space build up between marchers because it's easier for cops for instance to fuck shit up if you get separated, etc) but when you're just standing around for ages your feet will not understand that you are surrounded by other people and will get super cold, which is rude of them 🤬

so anyway when I got to dc I got something quick to eat at a wawa lol and then made my way over to the rally area at around 8:30, where it was basically just organizers starting to trickle in. and yes, it was freezing.

it was also beautiful out, but very chilly and windy. around 10:30-11 or so the sky CHANGED (I cropped this photo bc PEOPLE DONT KNOW HOW TO COVER THEIR FACES)

the wind was rolling. it did clear up after a bit of a sprinkling, which I was like lmao oh god no please not this, rain makes americans want to stay inside but it passed quickly because of the wind thankfully. also I forgot which americans we're talking about - Arab americans show up for palestine no matter what, and of course the crowd was super diverse and full of all people but this is a movement that is driven by Arab americans, Muslim americans, Palestinian americans, Black americans (edit: cannot believe I forgot Jewish americans im dumb) etc. they show up no matter what.

later, in the rally which started at around 12 for six palestinian americans to speak on their families' traumas in the war and then at 1 or so the official rally began, yeah it was windy as hell and it was kind of funny, there were these massive palestinian flags all over the crowd (I experienced two of them - one in the front and later during my phone issues towards the center back - I didn't see the end of the crowd but it stretched over blocks and streets, it was massive for the united states which sadly doesn't get protests like this often) and they had handles for people to hold onto them and pass them around the crowd - kind of like all of us holding onto palestine, at least thats how I took it - but the wind was WINDING and so we were all kind of struggling to keep it from flying away

fucking wind working for genocide joe jk

anyway at protests there are organizers who have supplies and I saw some people with hand warmers, but when we got to the white house hours later i was next to a man who was blowing into his hands bc they were so cold. I had an extra scarf (i had my keffiyeh and then another scarf which is wool and very warm, my keffiyeh is a fake bitch so it is not super warm like a real hirbawi one, i used to have one of those like ten years ago but i lost it in a move i think 😭😭😭) so I lent it to him to wrap his hands.

here's me with my fake bitch keffiyeh and my new cat finn btw

cats say free palestine

but let's be real it was in the high 30s or low 40s, even with the wind it wasn't like... the worst I've experienced. here in Delaware we don't get winters like we used to but last December there was a night that dropped to 8° Fahrenheit or -13° Celsius so I've had worse. but some discomfort is nothing compared to what gaza is going through, and even if the temperatures aren't like that in gaza* it's still cold at night and going through starvation, dehydration, the trauma of war, disease etc is made even worse by dealing with cool nights in a tent.

it was cold but we were all warmer together.

*my cousin's israeli friend literally had the gall to say that it's ridiculous for people to worry about the cold nights in gaza bc it doesn't get that cold like ??? bitch??????

Good morning 🌿

Unlimited has recently blocked me out of fear of being discovered and sent all their followers to do the same for fear that they’d actually use their brain and critical thinking skills and realize for themselves that they’re lying to all of us, but I’ll keep going nonetheless and break it all down 🌿

“Incorrect Kaeloo quotes” is also a fake account run by Unlimited, who strangely only ever says everything they want them to say to support them even tho they’ve never been in stm or never interacted with other server members apparently (just like raspberry used to do lol)

I’m not a troll and I’m not harassing anyone, the fact that I’m simply asking for proof and explanation goes to show you feel “threatened” by my harmless curiosity and autistic interest

I’m not tracking down a child because there is NO child, I’m trying to find their real identity and use logic to help everyone realize that the writer is actually Unlimited themselves (nobody has sent me proof of messages yet so my suspicions are only growing bigger)

I’m sorry but I have no idea who the people that made the doc are, my friends are from Twitter and they shared the document with me there but that’s about it :)

Never sent a single rude ask in my whole life, again, I’ve ONLY asked simple questions. If Unlimited is innocent then why are they so scared by my questions?

You turned off your ask box after sending yourself a billion insults and slurs and death threats in the hopes of framing others for it and painting yourself as a victim (again, it’s not working I’m afraid. Maybe 2 people from your group were dumb or naive enough to be able to fall for it when you made them believe it was “Jay from the doc”, but this trick is also poorly structured and bound to fall).

“Sharing a porn fic in the Kaeloo tag”? Weird Unlimited…is this you with all your underage followers?

Listen good Unlimited: You can try to lie and manipulate naive children by pretending to be a child yourself behind a fake account (groomer behavior btw), you can try to shame others for writing nsfw even tho there’s nothing wrong with it and you enjoy it and write it as much as everyone else (which is your fair right as an adult), you can try to insult yourself and try to blame it on someone else in the hopes that people will feel pity towards you (really Unlimited? “Acoustic? Cowardly bitch?” Learn better insults), but one thing will always, and I mean ALWAYS, stay true…

The truth ALWAYS comes out eventually.

Hope you all have fun and have a good day everyone, I’ll be spending a lovely day outside enjoying my life because, unlike Unlimited, I have absolutely nothing to hide. Mashallah, goodbye 🌿💗

no cus i totally understand your frustration, ive also quit splatfests for the moment until they get an overhaul

i suggest if you feel close to getting hateful to either shiver or shiver fans then maybe quit for a while for your own sake cus ive felt a lot better after doing so, im still really sensitive to negative comments towards frye or rude ones about shiver winning but taking some time for myself has made me feel infinitely better

ive been close to hating shiver before bc of how cocky and rude them and their fans can be but it doesnt really do anything but sour your enjoyment of the game more, so its really not worth it

i do have to say though, anyone who says "its just a game" reaaally needs to understand the frustration of people OTHER than them, sympathy is something a lot of people forget about when it comes to things that arent real life. just because it doesnt affect you doesnt mean everyone can shut off their attachment to the game or a character like a light switch; a lot of the time you dont know whats going on with them. i myself am really attached to frye cus i am hashtag autism creature and he brings me comfort, so anyone being rude to me about shiver winning really REALLY gets under my skin. its not entirely (if they were serious, if they werent then its not at all) their fault, but nintendo fixing the frustration of splatfests constantly keeling in one direction (which theyre supposed to do anyways but they havent) would definitely fix the issue. we need to find a way to have nintendo fix this, not attack anyone else for what bundle of pixels and text theyre attached to.

not everyone has really thick skin and if we want splatoon 3 to be more hospitable then we should try to cut down on the general splatfest bullassery in public spaces (being overly cocky and rude/blaming others in a way with no basis or truth behind it). its not something everyone can always do since we arent all perfect, but if we make steps in that direction then we could help more people enjoy the splatoon community rather than being eaten up by toxicity and spite

i didnt word all of this entirely correctly so like interpret ad best as you can cus im eepy but yeah.

a fye for u to enjoy (also ur anon is off btw)

u dont have to but for the sake of not being harrassed id appreciate if u didnt tag with public tags

👏👏 PREACH

I don't want to quit playing it, I do enjoy splatfests, to a certain extent, i like going with my friends and i made a lot of new friends through it, it's like, the online community that I'm having a problem with

I don't hate shiver, I thought I did but I can't, she is still a comfort character (tho Frye is like, my obsession besides being my comfort character cuz I am also part part the 'tism XD), in a way, I like her dynamic with the group at least, she annoys me, yes, very much so, but I don't hate her

And I don't hate people who like her either

Who I do hate is people being mean about it, I had turned off anon cuz of a stupid person who was going around every frye support account anonymously just saying mean stuff and praising shiver as the best, I just forgot to turn it on, so thanks for reminding me 😅

Saying that "It's just a game" is so annoying to, tell that to the football fans, they go just as crazy if not more so

Splatfests are ment to be fun! You should be able to enjoy the splatfest without having to worry about people fighting

I don't like fighting with people, I hate how angry I become, how mean I can sound sometimes, I usually just vent without interacting

At least she won in Japan, so that is one other win under her belt, I just wish she'd win more in the future 😔

Oh also I almost didn't participate in this splatfest either and I did only because I haven't had time to play and I haven't finished my catalogue yet 😅 I usually use splatfests to up my catalogue quicker lmao

Also, don't worry, I won't tag anything that could get you harassed, if anything does happen, please block for your health, I don't want anything happening to you, you seem very sweet ;w;

Edit: also YOUR FRYE PLUSH IS SO CUTE! I've been seeing people get her but idk where to buy her!!!! Where'd you get it? :0

Hi...do you have any suggestions for a beginner fanfic writer?? Maybe some tips?? Love your work btw....i absolutely love your falling for the devil series

Ahhh, thank you so much!! 💖I'm glad you enjoy FFTD!! That series also tends to be my favorite of everything I've written, too. There's just something about FFTD Matty...

I could certainly give you some tips/suggestions that I've learned along the way! I've been writing and reading fanfic since 2005 so I've been around for a bit 😅 Though if there is something more specific that I didn't address--like something more specific with writing or editing or something--you (or anyone else who's curious) can certainly always send me an ask and I will always answer when I have a few minutes! But I'm not going to claim I'm remotely an expert on all of this, either. This is just from my experience and talking with other fic writers.

As always, the answer is below the cut!

First, I think it's always important to keep in mind that the more you write, the better your skill will grow with writing. Which goes for everyone, no matter how long you've been writing for or whatever your age is. I always see an improvement in my writing when I read something from even just a few months ago. And I even cringe at things like the very first Matt fic I wrote or even some early FFTD installments. So don't be too hard on yourself!

I think it's also important to remember to not compare yourself to others. We all have different styles and voices and that's a wonderful thing in writing. If everyone wrote the same or had the same ideas, there'd be nothing interesting to read. Everything would sound the same which would be boring. Personally, I didn't find my writing style/voice and grow comfortable with it until almost a year and a half ago when I started writing for the Daredevil fandom, so it's completely okay if you are still searching for yours.

Don't let any negative comments you might ever receive writing fanfic drag you down. Everyone gets them, and some fandoms have different dynamics than others where it may happen more often than in another one (though come on y'all, can we please practice the don't like don't read rule??). I think anyone who writes fanfic long enough will receive at least some hate. I've certainly gotten plenty over the years, and yes, it sucks and it can hurt or piss you off, but you have to remember to brush it off. There are likely many others enjoying your story to make up for that one person who's being rude. Block buttons can be your friend if you need them.

If you're having trouble writing a character that already exists in the fandom, studying them in the source material is always a good route. The amount of times I've gone and re-watched Daredevil, Punisher, or Kin in order to feel like I capture any of the characters in there just right is absurd, but it really does help to see their mannerisms, speech patterns, and to begin to get a feel of how they'd react in different situations based on how they've reacted in the show.

Lastly, when you write chapters for your fics and it begins to feel daunting, know that you can always break things down into more manageable chunks. I used to struggle to write much at a time until I learned to focus on the story in this way as opposed to focusing on everything that I still needed to make happen. Just focus scene by scene or even line by line. How to get Character A to do this or get to that point, for example, and it should hopefully seem significantly less terrifying. If you try to think of everything that needs to happen in a chapter all at once, it might begin to feel overwhelming and you may have the urge to give up. Try breaking things down and focusing on one thing at a time.

I could absolutely go on but I don't want to ramble! If there's something more specific you're curious about that I didn't touch on, or maybe you'd like more detail about, absolutely feel free to send me another ask! And this goes for anyone who made it through all of this! I always love chatting, sometimes it just takes me a moment to have time to sit down and answer. Hopefully any of this was useful/helpful though! I am always happy to help encourage others to write!!💕

hii!! I love your works btw!

can I request akito, rui, toya with a reader with family problems? for example their family is arguing and falling apart or something like that??

Hi hello, I'm so glad you like my works, darling <3 And somehow I actually had huge idea for it so I hope you enjoy ^^

Akito, Toya, Rui with reader who has family problems

Tag List: @vodka-glrl - come get your ginger tsundere~

⊱ if you were keeping your family problems a secret from Akito, he'd often get confused why you're so scared to invite him to your house but he also understands privacy so he often just walks you home

⊱ although on one of your walks he overheard fight between your family when he was saying goodbye to you, so he finds out about it eventually...

⊱ if you do decide to tell Akito about your family tho, he'll be very glad that you trust him so much and will also relate a little...

⊱ he says that if you want, you can always stay at his place whenever and how much you want, sure Ena will tease him endlessly if she would catch you two snuggled into each other but just maybe he can get over it for yours sake

⊱ but if anyone from your family will raise their voice or a hand on your for that matter, and he'd get to know that then there's no way of stopping him, he's ready to argue or get into a fight even with your parents

"You can always come to my house. It's not the calmest place but from what you said, I think it can still help you calm down from what's going on at your place..."

⊱ you don't have to worry about much if you keep your family problems a secret from Toya, he doesn't like talking about his family either so he understands you, but he still can't help but wonder what's the reason for that...

⊱ the only way possible he finds out is if you spill everything out, since he doesn't want to get into your private things, after all he doesn't want to force you to anything or do anything and everything to find out, he thinks you'll tell him when you're ready

⊱ if you do tell Toya about your family problem tho, he'd often suggest staying a little longer outside with him, he'd love to take you to his house so you can spend time there but atmosphere there isn't great neither and he knows it...

⊱ so he'll take you to longer walks, choosing routs where you pass a lot of cafes, shops and other locations you might be interested just so the two of you can spend some time together and forget about bad things

⊱ if it happens that one of your family members raised their hand on you, he will really wany to confront them about it but if you tell him not to, he won't

"Oh look, our favorite cafe is on the way... would you like to enter and enjoy each other's company with something sweet?"

⊱ you won't actually succeed at trying to hide problems with your family from Rui that you gave family problems because of how good he actually is at noticing things, for example he'll immediately pick up how you always try to stay away from your home and instead prefer to hangout somewhere else

⊱ but just because he notices it, doesn't mean he tells you about it, instead he waits peacefully for you to tell him since he respects your privacy

⊱ if you do tell Rui about your family problems tho, he'd be really happy that you trust him that much and tells you that you can always come to him whenever you'll need anything

⊱ he'd build some special noise blocking earphones for you, so you can always just put them on whenever you have enough of your family and want some peace

⊱ he'll also offer you stay at his house or to hangout with him after school, or even to come go his group practice, just so you can forget even for a second about your situation at home

⊱ he isn't the type of person to be violent or really rude, but if one of your family members raises a hand on you, he may just build something to give them a good lesson

"Hey darling, I remember you saying how the constant fights are annoying you so I got you a little present! They're noise blocking headphones. Do you like it?"
