#anti blouis

Something something Louis and Chuck both wearing white at their weddings to Blair something something they were the center of those relationships something something Blair can’t even be the focus for a single day

[twopoppies]

I know you won't post this because you're too shallow but Louis blocked HLD not because of Larry but because theyre blouies. Like theyre weird af for constantly feminizing Louis and very much anti-Momrry. Imagine tweeting "Loubies", like it's digusting af

What are you even talking about? How are they blouies? And how am I shallow? WTF is your problem?

[statementlou]

IYO, any red flags/deal breakers one should look out for when following larrie blogs here? already blocked the GIF making ones (cuz they're mostly blouies) and the big ones, who loves the drama.

hmmm... I mean there are loads of blogs on here that seem like cool people but who I don't follow cause they post lots of stuff that isn't what I personally want to have to scroll through, be it full on deal breakers or just stuff that's uninteresting to me and untagged- like there's just a whole spectrum going from eh not for me to holy shit I wish I could fucking delete that blog. But you're asking about the far end of that spectrum, so... um I guess for me: people who state their theories as facts/ don't seem to understand the difference between theories and fact. People who want to delete other peoples' blogs tbh, like who think that if someone disagrees with their theory they need to be Dealt With and Schooled, so I guess I wouldn't actually delete anyone's blogs. I just don't like cops be it the real kind or just people acting like them, like thinking some fanfic is Bad and needs to be censored, or believing that not thinking Louis and Harry are married is punishable, or insisting that their lyric analysis is CORRECT and the only possible one, or who think taking a job pretending to be someone's partner publicly is morally Wrong and they are Bad People. IDK though, I think I have distanced myself so far from the really nasty shit that I'm forgetting some bigger bad flags maybe? in any event my personal shit under the cut why not

My personal NOs are: if someone is super negative and hateful all the time, be it about someone in the 1D-sphere or other segments of fandom (I worry that I'm one of these kinds of blogs to someone but I do try not to be), or who publish anti anons spewing their gross hate and nasty theories, even if its to make fun of them: hate just depresses me, even directed at targets I also dislike. It truly lowers my mood in a way that is hard for me to shake. Likewise if someone's blog is all asks or posts with the worst takes I've ever seen, regardless of how thoughtful their counterpoints, it's just not my thing. You can be hilarious or very correct in replying, but I already had to read that shit and it genuinely depresses me to be reminded how terrible people (and their takes) can be. It's the same reason I blacklist Tr*mp and shit like that you know? So with fandom, like the news, I'll go looking sometimes to see what's being said or to track down something I see people referencing but I want to be able to scroll without being blindsided by it. But maybe what ruins your day is something different? I have pals who find anti trolls hilarious and seek them out to see what they're up to, but flat out blacklist totally different stuff that I might roll my eyes at but not really be bothered by. But also my YESes! When I come on here I know what I wanna see: 1) a bunch of pics of Louis cause he makes me happy 2) some funny takes and memes 3) the people I follow having funny or insightful commentary on new pics or whatever in their tags or telling me some bts type info, I love knowing all the details and gossip 4) intellectually stimulating but emotionally low stakes discourse that doesn't involve anyone spewing hate at anyone else 5) enough UA type content to know what everyone is up to 6) enough clues about what's going on with the fandom or in the non-UA type updates (like, what did people figure out from that official post) to figure out if I wanna go find the drama and roll my eyes or comment. So that's what I look for!

Anons are lying about blouies harassing that fic writer. From what I saw, many antis were also harassing fics writers. Especially because many harries believe that it’s gross how larries and other shippers write fics about a real person in a sexual way. The thing about blouies was surely spread by a harrie-larries that hates blouies.

As I said, it’s sad how people make an entire personality about some fictional sexual preferences.

Whatever the reason of that writer was, it still was poorly managed and I completely understand the chaos it created lol those fans are a painful pebble in a shoe when it comes to things like this. There isn’t a one good side, a better side. It’s just about bored and annoying people who try their best to make even a saint run out of patience (on both sides).

Nobody won in this story.

Hi, Mod !

Mediocre storytime alert:

Before using tumblr, I used stan twitter a lot and used to have a larrie mutual that was very funny and, despite being irritated by some things she did, such as exaggerating in a strange way a part of louis' personality (like all blouies) and having harry as a favorite (which is no problem at all to have a favorite, this was just not my case), I always came back on her page because she always seemed to be very smart.

Last night I spent two hours scrolling through her page, because I was intrigued to see that she had stopped following Harry’s career and also had deleted her fic (and as I had already said, Harry seemed to be her favorite and it had only been a short time since she had gone to his show). And I found out that she had dropped Harry and created a narrative in her head that they broke up, which is also fine with me because, in fact, there is no way of knowing.

But for me it's very little about her opinions and more about the way she acts about it. For example, she always followed all of Louis' sisters and commented on everything they did/do (as if she knew them, their personalities) as a way to force a relationship between her and louis, to look intimate and thus seem that she is superior because she 'knows everything', and began to make fun of those who continued to believe that they were in a relationship. What in my head is very crazy that you base your treatment with people on opinions you have about the nuances of the life of a third person we don't know. We can have an idea about the values of our idols, we can admire his art and be happy with his victories, but the truth is that we only see him (for a long period of time) in situations in which he feels loved and important (shows, subscriptions, signings etc) and therefore, we always see the best part of him in those events. But we don't know his dynamics with others on normal days, we don't know his flaws, we don't know what happened and much less in details, so to stop following Harry for being frustrated with the expectations she created about how he should act is stupid. We don't know Louis' career goals to assume that his team is incompetent and that everyone wants to sabotage Louis (including the fans themselves by making jokes saying that they wanted less demand to get a ticket) as she does and as the radlouies do. We don't know details of Harry/Louis' relationships with the others members of the band to speak ill of the others members of the band. And it makes me sick to know that this kind of relationship can exist between an artist and a fan, and it is very sad to see this kind of thing, because it spoils a little to be in the fandom for me. Sorry if there were too many subjects in one, I was just very upset yesterday and wanted to share it with someone and I don't have many friends in the fandom with whom I can talk about it.

Hi, nonnie.

I’m sorry you’re feeling alone in the fandom (or were when you sent this ask). It’s really hard to lose fandom friends or realize that their values and opinions don’t align with yours.

I won’t lie - the ecosystem of fandom twitter (in particular Larrie twitter) is completely foreign to me. But I do think it’s always possible to find people you like and respect regardless of which side of the fandom you find yourself leaning towards. Sometimes those circles can just be smaller than others - and that’s okay!

As you said, fans only see a very tiny portion of Harry and Louis’ lives, and to draw sweeping and definite conclusions probably isn’t wise. I do think fans have every right to take a step back from Harry, Louis, or any other artist if the artist is no longer resonating with them. (In fact, I’d encourage fans to do that, lol.) But at that point, I think it’s best to let bygones be bygones and I also tend to unfollow when I see post after post chastising Harry, Louis, Larries, Antis, etc. after a fan changes their opinion on any of those topics.

Hope you’re doing well and finding a way to navigate fandom that feels fun and enjoyable. 🤍

Blair Waldorf + Dance Fever (9/?)

[mrs-nate-humphrey]

if you had to pick, would you choose blair and louis or blair and nate as endgame?

blair & nate, i think. while nate was a pretty shitty boyfriend to blair in the early seasons, i feel like he grew quite a bit as a person thru the seasons, and he eventually did want a steady relationship/ someone to come home to. i still don't think they'd be compatible and i think it'd probably be a loveless marriage like derena most likely were, but at least it wouldn't be toxic/abusive, which i think blouis definitely would've been, despite royal perks for blair. with nate, even if there's no magic and fireworks...... they've known each other since kindergarten. they were friends for so long. neither of them would be happy, but i think it's a less miserable option. RIP

[xoxowaldorfbass]

Me and Dair and now, mind you it’s the umpth time I’ve watched gossip girl, blouis, you know Blair and Louis. Did I dislike them this strong before? No. Probably not. But now it’s like Louis is on the screen and I’m like “but did I ask though?” as if he’s suddenly Daniel Humphrey.

when you hate a ship so much but the writers keep trying to make it a thing

[awesomefringey]

Wait, THIS was everything I had to know about fandom dynamics back in 2017??

What happened @twopoppies? Source for the graphics and more details in this post.

I need an overview for blouies, rads, antis, something that people call "no stunt larries" on Twitter and I guess "stunt larries"? LMAO.

[trashfordair]

i just saw a chair shipper say louis pretending to be the driver instead of the prince when he first met blair is a red flag... who's gonna tell them

[strideofpride]

wtf how is her dark side relevant right now???

[xoxowaldorfbass]

Blair would go to yale and date a yale guy (the kind of guy Blair would want to go to yale), (instead of like Louis and dan and end up with chuck still) apparently Serena and dan realize they’re not meant to be after one breakup.... they go to a ski resort and Eric’s there (no Blair and Eric romance though, just designer ski clothes), (Aaron rose, Blair’s step bro takes her to yale, so I would want some sort of Blair and her weird step bro scene and not just here another’s one of Serena’s many forgettable ex’s)....

I really can’t think of anything else, maybe I should reread the books??

What did you enjoy most about the books? Is there anything you would have added into the show ?

i only read the first one! and don’t remember it all that well tbh, i’m hoping to reread it this summer and then hopefully the rest. but as of right now, no, i prefer the show to everything i have ever heard about the books lol.

[twopoppies]

"I doubt that everything Harry does, wears, says etc is connected to Louis. I'm sure there's other people in his life too"

I was laughing when I read this and I hadn't even gotten to your answer yet kgdijfrjnvxy. Anyway, wtf? How do people come up with these ideas? And they think like this

Sometimes I really like to hug people like this and tell them everything will be fine, you will be fine. They're just two rich gays, Put yourself first

Honestly, what I don’t understand is why people read my blog if it annoys them? Like? Love yourself. Spend your time doing things that bring you joy. I don’t go trolling on rads and blouies and antis. I literally forget they exist unless they show up in my inbox.

[saintqueer]

I do get why a majority of the het harries/antis are just gross and make harry uncomfortable so it bothers me, but i don't get that larries sometimes get on the same level with gay jokes so is the difference because we wouldn't say it to them or on a sign out of respect or what do you think? How do we draw the line better than them, is there a 'better'

like blouies cross that all the time so het harries aren't the only ones, dont get me wrong. larries are guilty of this too! but i think a lot bigger portion of us know the lines we should not cross. we have fandom space and then we have spaces we share with the people we are fans of. i never want to bring stuff explicitly from fandom spaces into the space of the artist! like i joke about louis being daddy and stuff but i would never bring a sign to a concert calling him that. this is the same reason why one should never ever ever send fanfics to the subject or their family members. it all comes from the same sort of philosophy about fandom spaces being for fans solely. the distinction is important!

but i also believe there is a secondary dynamic at play with harry and his fans in particular because of the way he was portrayed and overly sexualized from a very young age. that adds a whole other problematic aspect which leads to the issues i have with how het harries talk about harry and thereafter push het fantasies onto him (not to mention the way that his team has been encouraging this since fine line's promo).

[eeveedel]

I truly lurk the twilight zone of this fandom, in that blouies view me as an evil plague and anti-blouies view me as a disgusting fetishist 

[non-binharry]

@any larrie that will rant about people "speculating" and being "invasive" about H's gender for thinking he might not be cis, you're transphobes. Sit on that and have a good moment of self-reflection and educate yourself. If "speculating about gender" is where you draw the line even though we're all here talking endlessly about what we believe to be a closeted gay couple, one of which has insistently and repeatedly denied to be gay, that's transphobia babe. 1/2

2/2 This genuinely a battle yall don’t have to fight, bc I PROMISE that “it’s bad to speculate about gender/sexuality” is 1000% more harmful than “speculating”. Because it creates a taboo and stigma around those identities. Yall don’t have a problem discussing every most private details of HL’s lives. And no fucking one has a problem speculating someone’s straight or cis. Seriously SHUT UP already, it's not even abt Harry specifically, just STOP being shitheads like that jesuuuuus

it's the way if someone suggested that speculating about harry and louis' sexuality is wrong and inappropriate and lgbt people are gross and disgusting for doing it, everyone and their mom would be rightfully calling that person a fucking homophobe. it's the way larries are allowed to look at things like rbb/sbb, louis' fucking triangle tattoo, etc and go "they're signaling to us" and call antis dumb for writing post after post attempting to debunk that. it's the way queer larries are allowed to feel a connection to hl on the basis of sexuality. meanwhile blouies and their adjacent friends openly call trans people freaks, mentally ill, fetishists, etc for feeling like harry has signaled his identity and it's fucking crickets. we know how personal and difficult a gender journey can be as we're the ones who have experienced it. we also know that we feel pride as a community, and we have to help each other sometimes to open up and discover ourselves and become content with who we are. it's fucking hypocritical and it's fucking transphobic to allow one but not the other and i'm tired of cis people and trans people who are letting their personal discomfort dictate what other people are allowed to do.
