Over the past few weeks we’ve talked a lot about relapses/slips. Here’s the deal, there’s a lot of different opinions and perspectives out there. Like so many other things in life and recovery, there’s no one right answer. You have to do what feels comfortable to you, and I get that. So regardless of which side of this “debate” you stand on, consider this: ➡️ Everyone’s recovery journey is different. ➡️ Recovery is not a linear process. ➡️ Criticizing how someone chooses to define their recovery is unhelpful (to everyone) ➡️ Most people relapse (at least once) before achieving long term sobriety. ➡️ Further stigmatizing or shaming folks in the recovery community can have some pretty damaging effects at the macro and micro level. Essentially, if you’re not going to be supportive and encouraging… maybe think twice about hitting “send” on that comment or private message¿? Those are just my thoughts though, I’d love to hear yours! Let’s stay respectful of each person’s journey, and feel free to share in the comments below!! • • Visit the blog!

I always see people who have never been antis, talking about/questioning how some antis even ARE antis when you look at their taste in media - ie the ever famous joke of "Hannigram is #problematique" "but it's a show where he eats people" or whatever.

I thought I'd weigh in as someone who could, hypothetically, be called an ex-anti (which, thankfully, nothing ever really came out of it - it was just very 2014 keyboardwarrior-esque behavior of me being a chronically online young adult who would share posts in a group chat making fun of certain shippers, or reblog posts about how 50shades is The Most Problematic Media Ever to exist -- basically I was an anti with anti-lines of thoughts, but i never, like, a ran a Shipping Discourse Blog or whatever)

For me, personally, it was a few different things. I can now see how it's incredibly hypocritical that teenaged me shipped Light/L, while still thinking that Dramione was Bad And Abusive. It ultimately boiled down to a) being pretentious, and b) just not understanding media or what proshippers REALLY believed, with a side of c) not realizing that nuance exists. like i was pretty late to join tumblr, I think I immigrated here during PEAK "yourfaveisproblematic" era which definitely did have an impact on my opinions and my tastes.

to elaborate, a.) being pretentious. i mean this one just kinda goes without saying. "I engage in media in a way more intellectual way than you do, don't you know that? You're a filthy and disgusting person who writes Snape/Hermione because you're an actually disgusting pedophile IRL who would probably date your own student that you're abusing if you could. Meanwhile, I'm a very smart, good, and pure person. When I read Uncle Vernon/Harry, I'm doing it in a G-d honoring whump way that clearly condemns abuse, incest, and rape. Unlike YOU who only writes harmful stuff as a way to get people off :/"

(as an aside, i think this line of thinking will ALWAYS be present in fandom and popculture in some way, sadly. ie the recent trend of people hating on booktok bc the books are 'trashy' and how these porn addicts should read real classic literature instead.)

as for b.), not understanding media - i cannot emphasize enough that i was GENUINELY stupid and disconnected enough to think that proshippers REALLY WERE pro-All Of The Degenerate Dead Doves That They Wrote.

why did i feel this way? why did i understand that Lolita clearly isnt pro-pedophilia, but for some reason i thought that someone shipping weecest was? well, first of all, i think that fanfiction is (generally) seen as Less Serious than classic literature, and fandom is a fun place, so i guess i somehow thought that every fanfic/fanartist who wrote Problematic Things, especially Problematic Things that they portrayed as Sexy, really DID enjoy the thought of that Actually Happening To Real People.

and i think THIS is the bulk of why antis ARE antis. i'm not calling them all stupid - i do think BEING an anti is stupid, but at the same time, there are people who are truly smart and good-intended people who just have some really off color opinions about, like, homestuck ships or whatever. Lawlight is okay because notebooks that kill people don't exist so it's IMPOSSIBLE for the Harmful Aspects of Light/L to be romanticized! but schoolyard prejudiced bullies DO exist and are a REAL problem so Drarry is BAD (*truly completely unaware of the fact that there's 'realistic' aspects of the Light/L dynamic and 'unrealistic' aspects of Drarry - such as, for example, Hogwarts arguably being even MORE of a fantasy setting than DN is.*) I know that media literacy is the hot buzzword of the year to throw around in 2024, but, like, i really did not have media literacy.

as for c.), not realizing nuance exists - ok "nuance" might not be the best word here, but i dont know how else to describe it. like, each time ive typed the word "problematic" out in this ask, i've done so in a very tongue in cheek/ironic/retroactive way, but, like, those posts about how Everything Is Problematic, Including Your Fave ARE true. and i didn't like the fact that my favorite media or favorite person might've Made A Mistake! i need to Talk About Its Issues Because I'm So Betrayed That My Dear Sweet Comfort Media Would Do This To Me. I Need To Prove I Clearly Condemn It.

like, i legit morally could not justify reblogging a twilight post without adding in the tags '#this is my guilty pleasure it sucks that the books were so racist though' or whatever. Most people were lucky enough to avoid that line of thinking, but there was an actual group of people who felt a genuine need to virtue signal all the time, partly bc, hey, they WERE passionate about talking abt #issues in media, but also bc of a subconscious fear of If You Reblog A Singular Piece Of Hetalia Fanart, You're Literally A Nazi And Will Get A Callout Post Written About You.

and during all of this i was at the tail end of my high school experience (yes i know im younger than most of your audience, ha). i was going through A Lot emotionally, going through a lot of life changes, and lived in a very . . . interesting household/place where i couldn't do ACTUAL good in the world that i was passionate about. so to make up for the fact that i was genuinely in no place to do legit activism, clearly i had to save the gay community by arguing about johnlock queerbaiting or whatever.

^ and honestly i do think that is the position of most antis. theyre isolated and cant seem to do Enough in the Real Scary World so they have to resort to talking about how bad of a person someone is for "shipping abuse", bc theyre not in a situation where they could, for example, ACTUALLY fight the good fight to end abuse or raise awareness for it.

There was way more to it and way more that I could say, if I wanted to, but this post is long enough as it is and probably doesn't make much sense.

I feel bad for antis, honestly, or at least the ones who are antis in the way I used to be.

--

Oh yes, passionate young fools who think they can at least fix the internet if not their lives make up most of the cannon fodder. Some of the ringleaders are just mini dictators and wannabe cult leaders, but most anti-leaning types are just traumatized or clueless, even a lot of the ones who do serious damage and don't just mock shit in private with their friends.

i'd like to also add on that this isn't even the first time this has happened. when matt showed support back in c2 for a woman that was sexually assaulted he got tons of hate for "being too political" and went off on twitter about people being assholes about it. when multiple people on cr talked about how black lives matter was important they got hate for it. back when the queen of england died there were tons of people getting full fucking pissed that matt was friends with aabria because she said she didn't care that the queen died and would not mourn her death and OMG SHE'S SO DISRESPECTFUL!!! (though this time he didn't say shit because oh my god, neither of them are british, why do you weirdos care about this crap)

i think that at least making a statement similar to how brennan did off of his official accounts was the right move for him to do and i don't really think it's unreasonable that the constant doomscrolling and keyboardwarrior-ing wore him down because historically, it has fucked him up.

Matt's Twitter videos broke my heart, like this is a guy who has repeatedly said that he has Depression and feels vicious criticism on the internet very acutely and still went "here are things I have done and yes i am heartbroken and here's why I am the way I am with socials" but it doesn't matter really what he says bc it's never enough. Social media """"activism"""" is so fake, like if you worry yourself sick and then present that to your followers as a performance, that means more to these people than anything anyone actually does to help. It's ridiculous and Twitter is more of a cesspool than ever.

It was so frustrating for me to see people react to that video with “this isn’t about you! This is about the people in Gaza!” Because if your activism doesn’t involve protecting your own mental well being and the mental well being of those around you? You will burn out and be able to do nothing. Matt was sharing why he wasn’t more vocal about everything online and I very deeply related because up until January I personally was distancing myself from seeing the worst of what was going on in Gaza because I didn’t have housing and was already on a thin string with my mental health because of that. I don’t and will not make someone feel bad if they have the privilege of being able to distance themselves from atrocities if they need it, and the fact that people genuinely are saying “fuck your mental health this is bigger than you” makes me think these are all people who just discovered activism this year and don’t realize how vital it is to be able to distance yourself when necessary.

Do I think it’d be great if CR did more? Yes. But they’ve already done more than the majority of companies and celebrities have done and instead of focusing energy on people who have done absolutely nothing they’re going full force at cr and I just don’t get it. That isn’t activism. Sharing the same link every day to your followers isn’t activism. I don’t talk about activism stuff on here cause this is my cr tumblr but like… its so clear that these fans do not know what activism actually is.

I want to extend a personal ThankQ from Carolyn and I directly to the #Digital Soldiers #KeyboardWarriors, #MidnightRiders & #Anons To our Military and Galactic Alliance behind the scenes at the ready.

This letter is directly to the American people, in hopes to reach as many humans left - as you undoubtely have noticed that we have taken back this country from the grips of the evil Artificial Intelligence COVID-19 Bioweapon deployed by the Democrats allied with the CP that behind it all were controlled by the slave ship Draconian overlords.

in conjunction with our Secret Space Program, Space Force, Militaries & The Galactic Alliance we have defeated our greatest adversaries mankind has ever faced.

As we face the EBS & Military Tribunals, I urge all Americans to prepare for Martial Law. There will be active military on the streets at key locations to maintain Governmental powers, during this transitional phase to ensure maximum safety during Operation Warpspeed.

These measures are in place for the immediate fallout after the EBS, when the lights go out just know that the White Hats Are In Control.

Understand that we faced an evil the likes of which no one has ever seen, because the strings that control the world were inside you (Tugging on the strings of your heart to drain you like a battery) because the truth is a force of nature.

The Matrix Was A Documentary. p.s. - arnica works best.

PSA: I am starting to notice a disturbing trend with the cigar social media community. I have seen more and more people leaving nasty and disrespectful comments in people’s posts. - The cigar community is the best community in the world but we need to work harder as a group to educate those people that this type of trolling and shit talking is just not welcome here. - I recently had a follower post a comment in a recent post that the cigar in the pic “tastes like shit”. This was a pic of a jar of cigars that routinely score in the 90’s. Clearly he was just being a troll - Another follower commented that PuroTrader.com had “too many scams on it” amongst other nasty comments. The reality is PuroTrader has a less then <1% failure rate. And when a buyer has a bad experience with a seller, we step and make it right 100% of the time. - If you have feedback for someone that’s what respectful DM’s are for. - The cigar community has it hard enough, we need to band together! #playnice #trollhunters #keyboardwarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/BuUfxg2Dh8t/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16tjir5wj3hsl
