it can be both, you know? it can be both.
fem sirius can be wonderful and validating for people who see themselves align with that representation of him but also the popular trend in fandom to make a fem sirius, particularly when paired with a hyper masc remus, can start to feel like fandom is forcing an m/m pairing into traditinal steretypical f/m roles and that can cumultiviely start to feel like homophobia and that doesn't change anyone's right to create fem sirius or mean that someone who creates fem sirius is homophobic because they create fem sirius or that someone else might feel validated by hyper fem sirius but that validation might also make someone else feel isolated because they don't fit into that depiction either and it can be both.
it can be both.
#i've been thinking about this for a while#and the problem is#both sides are right#and that's okay#you're allowed to have feelings about fandom#and you're allowed to not enjoy certain depictions of fictional characters#you're not allowed to shit on someone else's feelings and choices#and you're not allowed to demand creators make it the way you want#stop being assholes#rant#might delete later

I am fighting the primal instinct to ship two rivals with a blue n red colour pallete that parallel each other...again...and they are predictably both guys...and yes this is about atla...yes I know the ship is obvious guys but just don't say it I am trying my hardest here...but the fanfic is making it really, really difficult...feel free to mock me once I stop this fruitless endeavour and free myself when from drowning in the nile (sorry, I am Egyptian, had to make the joke)
#i hate myself for this so much. i promised myself i wouldn't do it. i promised.#it happened with narumistu/wrightworth#it happened with onewaybroadcast (not radiostatic). it happened with too many ships i cant remember atm#i cant believe i am starting to ship zutara but worse (sarcastic chorus' words not mine. him avoiding that ship like the plague in that one#video was so funny to me. and it made me feel called out aswell)#and the problem is#I PREDICTED THIS. I FUCKING PREDICTED IT. I SAW THE FANART BEFORE WATCHINF RHE SHOW. I KNEW I WAS GONNA SHIP THEM BUT I TRIED MY HARDEST NOT#TO. BUT I FUCKING FAILED. AGAIN. I HATE THIS. THIS GODDAMN SHIP MAN. I WONT SAY ITS NAME. I KNOW ITS OBVIOUS BUT I WILL LIVE IN THE NILE#maybe...just maybe...i can bully myself hard enough till i stop. that's what i did with saiouma. yes...perfect....#BUT THE FANFIC IS GOOD I DONT WANNA STOP READING IT 😭😭😭#sobek freakposting

live-action be like:
AANG: I have a feeling you’ve been hurt enough
camera zooms in on Zuko’s thumb-sized birthmark
#atla#natla#zuko#aang#and the problem is#on top of the scar presentation#Aang might feel interest and curiosity about Zuko at this point#but PITY?#that was an odd move and it felt sentimental in a bad way#empathy sure#but please not pity#*goes back to rocking in corner*

“what if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?” good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesn’t make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know it’s okay if what you think about yourself changes.

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!
do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!
#i am so sick of writers having to anticipate the most boring#bad-faith readings of their work. i am like - if you use cheese as a currency#okay! as long as the world makes sense to me: cool. cheese tax. moving on.#my job as the reader is to suspend my disbelief and say okay! i am so sick of like#fanfiction authors having to write dissertations#because they had an interesting idea they'd like to try out!!!#just write it! if it doesn't make sense that's someone else's problem!!!#PS OP is autistic. yes sometimes i take things literally at first glance. then i think about it lol#this is so clearly not about accessibility etc. it's about like. girl even i an autistic person#am able to understand ''they probably didn't mean his eyes darkened LITERALLY''

revising your writing is just like "is this weird. is this a weird sentence. is this the weirdest most poorly-worded sentence ever written by anyone" and the sentence in question is "he walked across the room"

Do you ever write a sentence and then realize “Nah, that’s too self aware for you” and backspace a bunch of times.

The most terrifying part of having memory issues is when you can feel something from 5 seconds ago be thrown out the window and there's an empty hole where it once was. You remember that you forgot something.
