Love and Deepspace Headcanons (except I just started a few days ago)

Xavier

Zayne

mini fridge of energy drinks under his desk

barely holding it together

sobs quietly in the shower often

Rafayel

cries during finding nemo

Where did this idea that aggressive harassment, sending death threats, bullying, doxxing, telling people to kill themselves, using homophobic and antisemitic slurs, attacking people’s looks, encouraging hate crimes, threatening to release sex videos, and engaging in a wide range of genuinely psychotic behaviors from behind a screen is reasonable and acceptable and even necessary “progressive” activism come from?

Yes, this is about the Noah Schnapp situation, but it’s about more than that, cause I’ve noticed this kind of mindset becoming more and more normalized, and I’ll never agree with it. How does this kind of behavior help the Palestinian people (or any other cause you’re being an “activist” for?) How does this kind of behavior encourage Noah or anyone else to change their views? How does wishing for Hamas to brutally murder the entire Schnapp family lead to peace and justice? How does saying Noah should dig up his dead dog and eat it stop bombs from dropping on Gaza???

I think all of us can agree that what’s happening in Israel/Palestine is horrible and stomach-churning. And I think most of us can agree that Noah wielding “Zionism is sexy” stickers when children are dying is tone-deaf and extraordinarily foolish at best. Please don’t mistake my words for saying that no one should ever be criticized or an endorsement of Noah’s reckless actions. But if you don’t have ANY compassion for the anxieties Jewish people face at a time when antisemitism is skyrocketing, that’s very concerning to me. Why can’t two things be true at once?

There’s this insidious notion that cruelty/calls for suicide/bullying are tools to weaponize against “bad” people, as if human decency, kindness, and empathy are food items to be snatched away whenever folks are deemed problematic (whether the reason is valid or not). People fancy themselves radicals, as if they are fighting in the French Revolution, when they are… not. I promise you that tweeting like this all day doesn’t make you a hero. It makes you look foolish:

due to an increase in recent negative traffic on my blog caused by a specific group of solavellan fans here who went blasting my blog on twitter/X (that nazi's app, btw. if you use that site still, i side eye you so hard) and elicited a slew of death threats to hit my inbox literally EVERY SINGLE TIME I POST OR REBLOG SOMETHING, i will be taking a small break from posting on here until this weekend.

i want to make it clear that i know i am not the nicest or most patient person with these types of people, and much of my blog reflects that. i have never minced my words or held back on exactly what i thought of that subset of the dragon age fandom, and i will continue to be that way when i return. but i do not, have not, and will not EVER condone sending death threats to people on the basis of a difference in opinions or ships. i made one response to just one of about 25 death threats that i received within the span of 48 hours. this is not including the many, many other kinds of hateful anonymous messages i also happened to receive to my inbox after they posted on twitter.

i will not sit here and drone on about this topic (i do it enough already, i know), but i need it to be known that while this specific group of solavellans is going onto other platforms and complaining viciously about my or other dreadrookers/solavellans rather callous attitudes towards them when they come on our pages to our clearly tagged critical posts, they turn right around tell us to kill ourselves while calling us egregious and vile names. dreadrookers and the solavellans who do not agree with their behavior have not sent ANY death threats of ANY kind to them. there is a clear trend that has been happening the past two weeks, and i'm a bit tired of having to go in and delete the messages that are clogging my inbox when i'm searching for genuine questions from you guys.

it's also disheartening as hell to have my content taken not only out of context but blatantly twisted and lied about on twitter/x and on reddit, when all i want to do is post my silly little reblogs of solas, my silly little critical takes on the fandom as a whole, and my silly little moodboards of dreadrook and solas. so!!! a short, sweet hiatus it shall be. i will probably lurk and like to support my mutuals, but outside of that, i am going to let their posts die down a bit so they stop coming onto my page looking for an argument with every post i make. <3

Posting this here because we need to stop all the negativity. You as a blog owner are allowed 2 moderate what you post. You SHOULD moderate what you choose to answer and post. Most of the asks on this blog were just targeted hate 2 artists.

I don't care if I get any hate for this I'm doing this for the people who are scared to say anything

[gracieparkerr]

one day i’m gonna make a fandom poll for a fic that will make everybody choose whether jason todd dies . jsut to see if history will repeat itself. and also to piss off my redhood stan sister

Jily shippers will claim that Jegulus shippers and Regulus sympathizers are “heartless”, “fascists” and “murderer lovers” etc. Let me tell you this. I’ve never murdered in my life and I’m not planning on doing it. What I want the most in life is a world with no hate, just love. I have a heart too big for my body. Don’t you DARE come at me and tell me I’m heartless, all whilst sending me death threats. Out of the two of us, you’re the more heartless one here.

Isn’t that odd?

You come at me and tell me to go die for loving and finding comfort in a character and his ship.

I answer you with love, patience and respect, and tell you to be well and be safe.

We are not the same.

the frustrating aromantic representation of chuck tingle's "bury your gays"

i feel like i should preface this by saying that i'm a huge chuck tingle fan and, representation aside, i greatly enjoyed his book. so this is not like, a hate take down. this will contain spoilers for bury your gays, you are warned.

the parts i have issues with will be more towards the end and are marked.

a quick synopsis: misha is a queer horror writer who is told to either kill off his gay characters after getting them together, or let them live and be straight (for the algorithm, ratings, etc). while he is reeling from this he begins being stalked by the monsters/villains of his past works. plot happens and these monsters are really nanobot contractions from his studio's fx company. misha survives these attempts on his life (and his boyfriend's and best friend's), eventually giving a heartfelt award speech about the need for a shift towards queer joy. when he comes back to work the entire studio is like decked out in pride flags and the now stereotypically gay management tells him that queer is IN! even better, it's profitable (according to the algorithm). but these nanobots are still out there. so they go to the fx studio to insert a virus that takes them down, the best friend, tara, being an unprecedented aroace that the algorithm has no information on due to a lack of content, is able to circumvent the nanobots and take them down!! happy ending!! yippee!!

i'll be going in order of the book, touching on the times where tara's identity is relevant

tara's aspecness is established almost immediately when she says "you know i don't swing that way...i don't swing any way, baby." classic aspec joke, i have no issue with this.

its first explicit mention is on page 42, "tara is aromantic and asexual, which has always made me appreciate her take on relationship advice." ok this part is so real. we are so good at that.

ok now we get into the main stuff. Tara says, "do you realize how hard it is to tell your parents you're asexual?" this part is true, and in comparison to misha coming out as gay. and i really appreciate it highlights the strange societal position aspecs are in!! it's hard to affirm an identity defined by a lack. and even harder for baby wanting parents to accept an identity that is largely incompatible with the nuclear family model. as this is in reference to like sex -> having a child, mentioning just the asexuality makes sense. but it is still weird to not mention how hard explaining aromanticism would be considering aces can more easily have straight passing relationships. let's begin a tally: ace mentions: 2, aro mentions: 1.

(!) time skip we are now towards the end. misha is giving his heartfelt speech, "i call on all of you to usher in a new era of stories where the gay, or bi, or lesbian, or asexual, or pansexual, or trans character lives happily ever after. buy those stories. make those stories profitable." we are now entering the territory here i begin to get a little angry. fandoms and drama in shows are so closely tied with romance. they are profitable. they are like, the lifeblood of ao3, etc. people also have this notion that you need a partner to be happy, and that this is a universal goal. so characters and story arcs that stray away from this tend to be, y'know, less profitable. and since this is extremely relevant to aromanticism as an identity and important to debunk, the lack of a mention of aromanticism is frankly stunning. our stories are not wanted, we have no characters to live happily ever after. because we are not profitable. we don't get that joy. so where are we? this is a nitpick but i find it strange that misha would forget to mention like, entirely half of his friend's identity. ace mentions: 3, aro mentions: 1

(!!!) this is the most egregious part to me. when i read this part i was genuinely so stunned that i started crying. ok so i've established that aros have very little representation. it is a fact that there is less aro representation than ace representation. especially in regards to non-ace aros. "there's a hero clad in pink, purple, and blue, the bi one...this continues on and on until every aspect of the community has been covered...tara steps up next to me, her eyes locked on the poster. "there' no asexual hero...they've got everyone up there besides an ace character...every fucking time." ok. so. a lack of representation for aspecs is like a Thing That We All Know. as also established, aros are not algorithm friendly, so i just see no plausible way that there is aro representation but not ace representation. and there's just this like, poetic irony to this. that aros are so forgotten, so uncared for, that the author of the fucking book forgot to even mention them. because there are three ways this shakes out here. either there is an aro in the line up and dr. tingle deprived us of the validation we need to justify our anger for a lack of representation (which effects us all but aros more). or he just straight up forgot to include us. or he's grossly conflating the two identities. there's no good option. anyway. ace mentions: 5, aro mentions: 1

here we have yet another mention of tara being ace, yet not aro, "my name's tara. i'm the asexual in the corner everyone's been ignoring." would be funny if aromanticism hadn't been grossly ignored once again. ace mentions: 6, aro mentions: 1

(!!!) time for tara to save the day (girlboss). "just pull up all the information you have on asexual and aromantic heroes...oh wait, that's gonna be pretty fucking difficult because there are almost no human asexual heroes represented in popular media, are there." like actually like the fuck. what the fuck. there are so little aro heroes that the author forgot about the one he had!! there are so little aro heroes that the author fucking forgot to mention how few there are. incredible. ace mentions: 10, aro mentions: 2 (ace mentions not quoted here but part of the rant)

so. thats the end of the book. it seems to me that dr. tingle might be a little confused. he's been a great supporter in the past of the aspec community. but there is a pattern of aro erasure in this book that frankly, pisses me off! but wait, there is more!

dr. tingle. babygirl. bestie. what the fuck is this? op explicitly said aroace character. and what do you do? you reblog with only an ace flag. do you not remember your character's own identity? or do you not acknowledge aros outside or aces? let's look at some more quotes from this post.

wow thanks for the solidarity dr. tingle (like, actually)!

what is this? whoopty fucking doo! aros totally dropped after their initial mention? again! but there is simply no precedent for this!!

i'd like to end this with a quote by dr. tingle.

glad you remembered the aces. maybe next time, remember the marginalized people you leave behind.

I really love Doc breaking kayfabe at the end of his episode to talk through how "If you and Grian ever teamed up you could destroy the server" is very funny

But also that telling stories like this together, respecting and trusting each other to play antagonists to each other, IS teamwork! It was really neat hearing him talk so directly about his perspective on roleplay, and lovely how much Doc respects Grian as a fellow creator & storyteller
