When the fandom normalizes characters swearing so much that it takes you a second to remember that the actual media has (little to) no swearing

[coolnonsenseworld]

At the end of 2022/In the beginning of 2023 I've sent postcards to Patrons and also added sketches for each of them. There were two copies - one to which I added a few details with a liner only for Patrons to keep, and the other printed on white to use as a coloring page or simply keep separately.

Here are all the sketches and I hope everyone who received the Postcard enjoyed getting it!!

You can still get the print of the Postcard (the winter one) separately in the shops - https://linktr.ee/mezzy

And here are credits which Patrons left - HEX was drawn for @caeseria-k , Cheek kiss for @not-so-sunnie, Kosmo Cuddle for sampai_writes (IG) , Cuddlers + Klance for luon-von (Twt), wintery one for @thestargazerfiles and a lap cuddle for @luchsmaedchen !

Big thanks to all the other Patrons!!! I wouldn't be here if not for them and sharing all this within a welcoming, understanding part of the fandom means SO MUCH, and it warms my heart to have the support not only for my fandom creations, but also for me as a person and artist. I mean. I don't assume. Maybe some are there just for klance, that's fine too. But I feel like I've met friends there based on a world of creation, anything I know about my Patrons, is they are so successful, creative and kind ToT. And listen... it's been seven years of Klance, and I still see people having new things to say about them.

Have an amazing week everyone <3

Flat earthers would drive Coran fucking crazy. Like, he would legitimately go insane

------

Coran: why, pray tell, do you believe this quiznakery?

Flat earther: *gives a 437 slide presentation on the planet's supposed flat-earthness filled with the most dumbass takes known to man*

Coran: understandable have a nice day (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)

Coran: *internal demonic screeching*

------

Coran: if you think your planet is flat, i suppose you believe its moon and the other planets in your solar system are flat as well, hmm?

Flat earther: hell nah i'm not stupid

Coran:

Coran: *external demonic screeching*

------

*Coran takes flat earther to outer fucking space to prove his point*

Coran, gesturing dramatically at earth out the window: ok so now that you've seen it for what it really is you must get it now right?

Flat earther: yeh

Coran: good to see you've come to your senses! now admit it

Flat earther: admit what?

Coran: what you just learned

Flat earther: and that is?

Coran: THAT THE EARTH IS NOT FLAT

Flat earther: well that's your opinion weirdo

Coran:

*later*

The rest of the team: hey cora-

Coran: how do you kids feel about murder

Curtis and I went on a double-date with Keith and Lance to a giant arcade/activity/game center yesterday, and I'd just like to highlight some of my favorite parts.

>The trampoline park. I haven't been on a trampoline since I was maybe twelve. On the ride home, I shamelessly bought one online for Curtis and I. For some reason, it's incredibly easy for me to death drop on trampolines? Not sure why, but I was slaying in the live pic Keith took of me goofing off. We spent about an hour in there.

>Indoor go-karts! Keith lapped me (speed demon) and I (tw slur) called him a fag out of pure shock and betrayal. He laughed so hard he spun out right before pulling into the station.

>Outdoor go-karts! Lance was unfortunately struck with a badly timed anxiety spell, so he rode with Keith, and my god, that was so funny to see. Keith was pedal to the metal, foot to the floor the entire time, and he kept drifting around the turns in the track. Lance screamed like a little bitch about it, but he said he had a great time, and it helped snap him out of his head and back into the real world.

>Food! We all had ice cream and watched Toy Story 3 together. Keith and I shoved pizza down our gaping maws, whereas Curtis and Lance both had pasta. Carbs, either way.

We didn't actually go to the arcade, but when there's an entire trampoline park and TWO go-kart tracks, we really didn't give a shit. The trampoline I ordered should come in a few days :D I ❤️ vestibular stimming~~

i am almost certain no one else had this experience. but the thing. the thing that fucking ensnared me about cassmako. was when mako got hurt and passed out inside Order and then cass ran in and scooped him up. and mako didnt remember it.

we had a bonding moment. i cradled you in my arms. etc.

i didnt even KNOW how bad that was locked in my psyche until it happened with two entirely different characters

[mosscreeper-ao3]

Look, I'm not tying this to myself but....

dirty laundry is a fic where the Voltron ppl are all in college and lance is going home for Christmas but uh oh he told his family he had a bf ( because they knew he was bi but we're kinda biphobic and he wanted to make a point) so he ropes Keith into it via the offer to clean his clothes for two months as long as he pretended to be his bf. this goes fine but uh oh feels happen . family drama etc etc . all culminating in lances sister returning with her daughter ( she had run away after she got pregnant young ) and bonding with the family again to the song gasolina in the car. Lance and Keith have a fight. Keith runs away. Lance finds him. they kiss . end

Decent fic, toxic fandom

Thank you for your sacrifice, anon. It will forever be remembered.

I saw a post that reminded me of this which is why I'm talking about this out of the blue but whenever I see the 'do canonically male characters you headcanon as trans girls count as female characters' debate pops up I remember this one event from the Voltron fandom where an f/f ship week banned genderbending and people lost their SHIT about it, SPECIFICALLY because the mods were like 'we want people to actually focus on the female characters and not submit already popular m/m ships but genderbent'.

This was years ago obviously so standard 'my memory may be fuzzy' disclaimer, but while I believe part of the reasons the mods banned genderbending was bc they believed it to be transphobic (which you could actually argue against and is a stance I don't agree with), and ppl were using that as leverage to argue, but that's not what ppl were actually angry about. Also, I believe the event was run by antis, who had a 'no age gap ships' rule in place, and people were mad about that, but like. The only f/f ships at the time with even kind of an age gap were ones involving Pidge, (which, again, for the record, I never personally gave much of a shit about), and yeah I do believe those were banned and ppl were pissy about that, but most of the ppl arguing with the ship restrictions were doing so in combination with the genderbending restriction, bc what they were mad about wasn't actually about a major female character being banned from the f/f ship week for Ship Discourse Reasons.

What they were angry about was specifically being told their genderbent m/m ships didn't count because they did not, in fact, contain female characters. Arguments were made that, because it was genderbent, it was now f/f and should be allowed in the f/f ship week. The mods went no, those are still canon male characters and popular m/m ships, and we're trying to run a week about the female characters and f/f ships because they don't get enough attention. The mods were fending accusatory and argumentative asks for ages and told people to create their own f/f ship week if they didn't like how theirs was run, which. People did.

A counter f/f ship week was organized but with less restrictions, specifically the restriction on genderbending was lifted. Now, I never followed Ship Week B, because I don't care about shipping and I was there to see more attention given to the female characters, which allowing genderbent m/m content seemed pretty anathema to. But I did check in on it out of curiosity, and to no-one's surprise, Ship Week B contained very large amounts of mostly genderbent sheith, with some shiro/lance and lance/keith thrown in. Like, I'm sure there was also actual f/f content (I remember there being some Pidge/Allura specifically), but I remember very little of it.

And as I alluded to in the large Nuance Disclaimer paragraph: yes this was the Voltron fandom, yes the Disk Horse was involved and made everything far more explosive than it probably would've been otherwise, and also, if the mods hadn't explicitly put the genderbending restriction in the rules list they probably would've gotten maybe a few genderbent m/m submissions tops. It's pretty obvious that a large motivation for Ship Week B was spite, and as someone whose username is literally spitecentral on AO3, I can confirm there is no stronger motivation for fan content than spite. I don't actually think that genderbent m/m is such a major problem in f/f spaces that it needs to be explicitly banned to avoid having it overrun ship weeks.

But even taking all that into account, this whole thing was completely fucking bonkers. Regardless of your opinions on the mods' opinions on genderbending and the Disk Horse, asking ppl not to submit genderbent m/m content on account of it not containing canon female characters is completely reasonable, and the fact that people got mad enough about it to create a whole seperate f/f ship week SPECIFICALLY to allow genderbent m/m content is insane. All the f/f ship week asked was for people to pay attention to female characters for once, and people threw a fucking tantrum about it and not only point-blank refused, but created more content for the male characters out of spite.

So yeah that was kind of a formative fandom experience to me that taught me:

People will take any excuse possible to avoid paying attention to female characters.

People will make literally anything, up to and including female character-centric fandom events, about men.

And that's what I think about any time I see people get offended when others point out that headcanoning a canon male character as a trans girl isn't the same as engaging with female characters.
