I can't stop laughing because this little post I made caused this person to apparently lose their fucking mind and forget what jokes were

[homoquartz]

one last thing and then i'll stop posting about it for now

it's not about ship wars. it's not about disliking cat king or being an anti. it's not even necessarily disagreeing with writing choices. in fact i'm sure it would play out in a way that at least makes sense.

it's that their dynamic personally puts me right at the edge of a panic attack because it's triggering, and the responses to it by the fans and the actors and the writers are also triggering which makes it worse, and i need to take space from that

by triggering i don't mean icky, i don't mean morally wrong, because regardless if it is those things or not, i can critique and move on. i mean it looks and sounds exactly like the real thing and it harms me

i'm still gonna write and draw for the fandom bc i like to, and do my queer show data bc i like to, but i just don't feel comfortable like interacting w/ fandom in general rn for aforementioned reasons. i don't mean to make a drama about it i just want to be clear.

and that's that

What a great comeback! I just hope the qsmp wiki doesn’t take Cellbit accidentally calling Phil ‘dad’ as canon confirmation of- oh wait

[locoier]

ive seen some people being vaguely weird over em having five moms, like acting like theyll be all overbearing and emotional. as if her situation is any different from any of the other eggs’. qsmp fanbase treating female characters weirdly strikes again.

“I don’t like how you wrote this character” stfu

“I don’t like how this chapter was written” stfu

“I don’t like how you ended this story” stfu

“I don’t like this plot twist” stfu

“Joel would never—” stfu

“I don’t like—” stfu

Don’t like something you read? Cool! Don’t share it with the world, instead, keep your unwanted opinions to yourself, and leave fic writers alone, it’s truly that simple.

If you’re rude to fic writers, and act like you’re entitled, (for whatever fucking reason), please just do yourself and everyone else a favor and get the fuck off the internet. Touch some grass and reconnect with fucking nature or whatever it is you gotta do to not be an asshole online.

If you don’t learn how to act appropriately in fandom spaces, and be nice and respectful to fic writers and other fandom artists, he will come for u in your sleep 😦

[we-all-horny-here]

Sometimes I think abt interacting with the fandom more and then I get hit with a post massively misunderstanding my favorite character and it dies down instantly

Guys did u know, uhhhh, shipping Remus out of character, because he's bad and evil and unlikable and literally no one would ever put up with him because of that? everyone hate him? or just tolerate him?

[toddfoxglove]

Not trying to be rude, I respect your DNI and boundaries and I'm not into the stuff in your DNI but I'm cis and don't understand. Don't you have to detransition if you're FTM and get pregnant? At least medically? I'm not being rude or mean. I'm just curious.

So, I guess I get this misconception, because people can't take testosterone during pregnancy, but pausing testosterone doesn't equal detransition.

Usually whenever people talk about detransitioning, generally, they mean going back to living as your agab or going through the process of undoing social, medical and physical transition. This is a concept that is absolutely horrifying to me and I cannot engage with it without becoming extremely distressed.

Lots of trans men, including myself, get pregnant and have children while still identifying as men and socially presenting as men. That's what my whole deal is about.

Personally, I have gone through a pregnancy and C-section while living as an out trans man, and that was enjoyable and empowering for me. So that's the vibe I keep on my blog.

Also, since you're cis, I think I really need to stress here that being on hormones or getting surgery is not what makes somebody transgender. I was a man even before I started taking testosterone, I will continue to be a man even if I have to pause my testosterone for any reason in the future.

I'm not 100% sure how I feel getting this question from a cis person who is following me. I really don't know if my blog is what you're looking for based on your question. I'm not going to block you, but I really think you should reevaluate if you want to follow my blog because I am a trans man, who posts about being a trans guy with a breeding Kink, and I post heavily about my enjoyment and fetishization of my own transition.

You will never find any mention on my blog of me wanting to go back to my agab. Ever. But you will hear mentions on my blog frequently of me wanting to be a pregnant man, and enjoying being a man and enjoying my transition.

I hope this answers your question because it was a weird ass question. Sorry.

“The characters except John got better without consequences” Well then you clearly didn’t hear the message about how even the worst people don’t deserve all the pain and suffering John seemed justified in giving. You probably cheered John when he beats up everyone. Also they did suffer consequences, they were beaten up by John a lot.

We’re supposed to feel bad when John goes on a rampage and still feel justified, that is the point. The point was how John’s destruction didn’t solve or fix his issues and problems. There is no way to suffer consequences and be punished in a way that helps us. You have to be better and do good, that is the only way to bring true justice.

Tis a good controversial arc. My fingers cramped from all the scrolling tho

[swiftiefirefighters]

anyway even if that was a puppy play reference (it wasn’t) that would be fine bc they’re fucking grown ups and they’re allowed to be kinky and flirty and talk in innuendos whenever they want no one could hear them chris wasn’t on the call yet even eddie couldn’t hear what they were saying

[lildoodlenoodle]

More and more I feel like large studios set up their more ‘woke’ and diverse projects up to fail.

[loulovingho]

Like it’s actually so funny can you imagine being an unprofessional writer who doesn’t know how to be unbiased and caters only to one specific set of fans and then you get told one day you gotta interview the man who plays the character you have spent so much time talking shit about… publicly. Then you go online and try to change the narrative by blaming fans and saying you never actually hated the guy, even though you clearly did/do, and you accuse fans of harassing you even though it was fans of a completely different show that harassed you and you just keep making yourself look more and more stupid then you… you have to admit you interviewed that guy you can’t stand. Because it’s apparent said guy is sticking around long term. And you’ve gotta face that shit.

I’m cackling 😂

[anonymous-dentist]

I can’t believe they’re erasing cellbit from their own shitty trio name out of pure hatred for a guy who legitimately has never been anything but kind to the wider hispanic community, q stans included

Imagine being this pathetic

[doveofmourning]

Ngl really disappointed in how much trans femmes, especially binary trans women, keep going out of their way to shit on the lived experiences of trans mascs.

If they talk about how they experience misogyny they say "you can't experience misogyny because you're not a woman."

Which is not true! Many people who aren't women experience misogyny, and there are specific intersections of misogyny in addition to this. And we have words for them! (Homophobia at least partially inspired by percieved femininity; gender norms and the way they enforce toxic masculinity is also based in misogyny; transmisogyny sometimes affects women, but non women trans femmes aren't women and are still affected by transmisogyny, and transmisogyny describes a SPECIFIC INTERSECTION!; misogynoir affects women, sure, but even though black women face INTENSE misogyny the crossover of racism and misogyny changes how BOTH of those express, and so misogynoir is so important as a word.) So trans mascs went "Okay, if just talking about misogyny isn't okay, we'll describe the specific intersection we experience with the word transandrophobia." And you guys went BALLISTIC!!!

It's so disappointing that I keep seeing people reblog queer unity shit but unwilling to listen to the plight of trans men and trans masc nonbinary people. It's absurd, and incredibly sickening.

My gender shit is so complicated, but publicly I am read as and often assumed as a trans woman (and although due to my intersex conditions it's a lot more complicated than that I have the general lived experiences common to trans women) so I feel a true sense of responsibility on this. We have a genuine responsibility to the community to do MUCH better.

I don't want to have to have this conversation but I also can not be complicit in this infighting and bigotry any longer.

Do better. We all need to have each other's backs. It can't just be trans women expecting everyone else to show up.

[lead-paint-girliepop]

Also @/sapphling believes in bi lesbians and believes trans men can be lesbians

This is a discourse I have no personal stake in, however.

I personally find gender and sexuality to be more blurred than our concepts and labels would like them to be. My takeaway from someone having either of these identities "trans man lesbian" or "bi lesbian" is generally: I don't get it, but they do, so that's fine. I am the master of my own sexuality and gender and the labels I use to refer to them. I will not policie anyone else's. Especially not when there's community to build, defense to organize, and facists to fight.

Not a fan of redemption Mapleshade headcanons and storylines, not because I don’t like her but because let women be evil!!

Also Mapleshade kinda read as a metaphor for parents who uh let their children die because of their own beliefs and shit. ( cough parents who refuse to vaccinate children ) so personally I really don’t like the idea of redeeming her for this very reason 😭 although I think it’s cat fantasized enough that call her a silly gal all you want or whateva

Been a lot of discussion about gender and evilness on warrior cats tumblr lately so here’s a summarized version of my takes:

-Rainflower and Crowfeather are equally awful, but don’t treat Rainflower any better because of how some fans treat Crowfeather. I don’t think Crowfeather is written particularly well but it’s also worth noting that a lot of fans like him more because well. He’s a protagonist and has a lot more content to theorize over than Rainflower who just straight up bullies her disabled child. Although you can still like Rainflower if you want, just let’s not bbygirl ify parents like Rainflower or Crowfeather.

-More Bramblestar slander on my feed PLEASEEE

-Sometimes people blame things on characters when… babe the writing is just awful. I know a character is told by the narrative to do something cool but then never actually is shown doing it, I don’t believe that’s a fault of the character I believe that’s bad writing.

-Not related to any fandom discourse actually but can we talk about how boygirl and girlboy core some of the warrior cats characters are because I have never come across this many in fiction

-I also think it’s worth noting that despite how much I really don’t like Mapleshade and Rainflower for their actions ( not as characters I actually like them as characters and the roles they fill in the story ) the actions of the male villains and antagonists in Warriors are way worse and often are not acknowledged for how awful they are and it’s good to acknowledge them but you shouldn’t try and apologize for characters who have in writing no mistake on the writers, done horrible shit. You can still like Mapleshade and Rainflower without excusing what they’ve done. Mapleshade blatantly murdered her own children due to negligence, do I like her tho? Yeah. I do.

[ayngels-sunbook]

Something I hate is that when I say “Oh I watch this Creator!” I get scared and think that People will only associate me with the bad part of people in said community. Like 😭 When I watched them I don't type in the Chat I just sit down, watch, and enjoy the show.
