#for all you smart people who block politics on tumblr

[wugblogs]

i hate talking about politics here but some of you just are way too sure that your vision of how kamala's campaign should have gone would have worked. like yeah it's not *un*reasonable but cmon. she's a black woman running for president on a campaign that was incredibly short on time, without the benefit of being a real incumbent but enough responsibility to take the blame for the current administration. even if she did pick whichever policies would have been the most popular/increased turnout, it's absurd to think it somehow would have been *easy*.

Latest Sunday WIP Update: 29th of September 2024.

About my writing:

mostly Steve Rogers x Reader and Steve Rogers x OFC (some Bucky Barnes /Reader and Tony Stark/Reader thrown in too!)

Readers that tend to be described as smart, intelligent, slightly socially awkward types that often have STEM-related jobs in-universe.

romance, romantasy, and healthy relationships, usually combined with an action-adventure plot.

Slow Burn, Protective Steve Rogers, Idiots In Love, Mutual Pining, Forced Proximity, Pretend Relationship, Chosen Family, Fluff & Hurt/Comfort, and Fix-Its.

If you were around during the 'Everyone lives at the Tower' era, I never really left that place: Most of my work takes place in an AU where SHIELD fell right after the events of the first Avengers movie, and something called The Avengers Initiative, funded by Tony and strategically led by Steve took its place.

I am a longfic person at heart. For logistical reasons, my really long longfics live on my AO3 - the links on this list that lead to AO3 have a little (AO3) after them. I don't have plans to post all my past work onto tumblr, but my fics on AO3 are open for guests, and guests can leave comments too. I will also make a post on tumblr when I update a story that is on AO3.

HALL OF FAME - my own favorites!

For Centuries (AO3) | Steve Rogers x Stark!Reader | Explicit

As the only daughter of King Howard Stark of Richford, you have always known that you are expected to eventually enter into a political marriage. When King Howard attempts to save his kingdom by marrying you off to the conqueror of half the world, you accept the responsibility bestowed on you. But as you arrive at the court of Emperor Steven the Righteous to be wedded and crowned the Empress of the Centurial Empire, your husband-to-be is not what you expected.

Reader is the daughter of Howard Stark and his second wife, who is not named or described. This is a 'From Political Marriage to Love Marriage' story, featuring lots of romantasy elements, court politics, and protective, righteous Emperor Steve Rogers. The 'Touch her and I'll kill you.' vibes are strong with this one. The slowest of burns.

WIP - 18/x chapters published.

Astronomical Odds (AO3) | Steve Rogers x Reader | Explicit

When you met Steve Rogers, the spark was definitely there, and the way you two hit off made one thing lead to another. But the consequences of that night will reach a lot further than either of you thought. Because now that you're pregnant - despite the astronomical odds - you and Steve need to navigate the situation after having known each other for exactly one night (and the two and a half weeks he spent off the grid on a mission). That wouldn't be an easy thing to do, even if he wasn't a superhero and you weren't trying to become the next Nikola Tesla (or Tony Stark).

So, people really need to stop implying that this is sign you two are meant to be, because honestly, it's just a mess. And Steve really needs to stop proposing to you.

An accidental pregnancy fic with lots of chosen family themes, and Steve and Reader figuring out each other and the upcoming baby situation. Heavy on romance, fluff, and not only Steve but the rest of the Avengers, too, being protective and caring of Reader, who is a literature nerd studying to be an aerospace engineer. Features some discussion of medical realities of pregnancy, and some supersoldier biology related issues.

WIP - 24/x chapters published.

Brilliant Steel (AO3) | Steve Rogers x OFC, platonic Bucky & OFC | Explicit

The AI Head Strategist, Captain Steve Rogers's world implodes as a wave of inexplicable, supernatural events washes over the globe. The blame is quickly pinned on former HYDRA operatives, the recently de-programmed Sergeant James Barnes among them. With no good options left, Steve and Bucky go rogue in an attempt to uncover and neutralize the threat before it swallows the world whole. The problem: the brilliant mind that might be the key to solving all this belongs to a woman Steve once scorned, and she won’t be happy to find him standing at her doorstep.

In an effort to save the world, Steve and Bucky team up with a woman that Steve once thought would be much more than a teammate. In a universe much more vast and stranger than anyone ever thought, they’ll have to learn to rely on each other — wits and gifts and weirdness and all — to keep said world on its rails.

WIP - 5/x chapters published.

Your responses on the woke post are honestly pathetic. Let me guess, you just blocked a gay man because he didn't like your LARPing as a gay person on tumblr? You clearly had no arguments so you had to resort to personal attacks. Typical braindead liberal who just blocks and cries when people prove you wrong

oh my god when i made that post i wasnt expecting ppl to be so fucking annoying about it

im not a liberal

bigots honestly dont deserve coherent well thought out arguments. it wouldnt have changed anything.

he was personally attacking me first all bc got offended i mentioned conservatives are stupid. he doesnt like words in my bio and had to throw a massive bitch fit about it and get his gross ass transphobe buddies in on it

i was quite literally intoxicated. i had taken an edible an hour and a half prior. i was high as a kite. i was posting about how i was too high for that bullshit. congratulations a lesbian who was high as shit couldnt form form coherent arguments, im sure you must feel very smart and well educated because someone who was not in the best state of mind couldnt argue against conservative points and didnt even really try to. im sure next up you'll go to a bar to argue with drunk people about various political issues while you're sober and come back saying you're the best at debate and liberals can never win against you.

anyways conservatives arent very bright and get offended about a woman in a video game going "does the sight of a strong nord woman offend you?"

[librariansrose]

I’ve reported you to tumblr staff for targeted harassment with my evidence for your stalking, defamation and harassment.

Leave me alone. I blocked you months ago and that should have been the end of it. Staff blocked you. Friends of mine blocked you. Other people blocked you.

I dont want to hear about you anymore. I dont want to see your name again. I dont want friends, associates or anyone else dming me about the fact that you cant stop talking about me and spreading defamation that the original party has already taken ownership for lying about in the first place.

I want nothing to do with you. Everyone who has blocked you wants nothing to do with you.

Why can’t you take a the word no for an answer? Accept that you’re wrong and that you are the problem and have been the problem?

Several people have had more patience and came to you in dms requesting you to stop.

Records of which if I had the permission, I’d be disclosing pages of.

But I wont, because many of them don’t have the resources I do to protect themselves.

You are an incredibly unstable individual who really needs to be seen for this behavior.

I tried to ignore you.

I asked politely for you to stop.

You kept pushing and pushing until you forced an email address out of a mutual friend to speak to me. All because you wanted me to unblock you. Emails that I have made public knowledge for everyone to see because you pushed me to that point.

For months I tried to continue to ignore you after sending my cease and desist letter. I had hoped you were smart enough to understand that you had gone to far and that the letter would be enough for you to see that it’s a no contact order.

You put my family, some of which are younger than you, at risk. Because of your twisted obsession with me.

If you continue this. My lawyer has already advised me to move forward. I have a full case.

You have time to change. I implore you to instead of continuing your obsessive crusade against a ghost writer you don’t even know. A ghost who wants absolutely nothing to do with you.

I wont ask again. I’m done asking.

Today I was at a vet clinic. On the line together with me was an old mute man with a 5-6 months black kitty. That kitty cried in his cat carrier for the entire hour till got to see the vet. I don’t know what health problem this little cat had but the old man decided to put him to sleep. After 30 minutes doctor brought out a small black bag. I thought the little guy was tired, scared and wanted to run around and not sit in his carrier the last hour of his life. This was really fucking sad.

And the hysterical Democrats, ready to commit suicide because their candidate lost a pointless election are just fucking drama queens who understand no shit about real politics. And these people believe they deserved the right to rule while they can’t hold a simple defeat. “Everything must be how I want or it’s the end of the world and I wish the opposite side to die!” is a position of infantile whimsical child. True, it’s a lot of such kind of people from any political side and ideologies.

I saw a lot of them for my life. All these 50-60 year old ex-soviet men who couldn’t accept the fall of the USSR and still dreaming to return it back, hating on literally anything what modern Russian Federation state does and blocking everyone arguing with them in the internet, sitting in their echo chambers and jerking off to each other about how smart, great and understanding they are.

Funny but Russian liberals are not different from them also. Only their golden dream is to sell Russia to the West again, ruling here under US patronage and carry out mass repressions against those who would dare to be against them. Unironically they call it "the beautiful Russia of the future". Sick hypocritical bastards.

And both of those groups are sincerely wondering why majority of society refuses to support them. For themselves they explain it accusing the Russian common people of stupidity, barbarism, brainwashing and submits to the regime. So no different behavior from westerner dems who blames all who are not supporting them to be Nazis, phobes, racists etc.

And you know, for a long time in the Russian society lived a myth that its Russian democrats are “not real one, losers and morons” and on the West lives “real democrats” who are “really cares about their people”. Kek. Well, turned out that they are all the same.

Your liberalism brand is not selling. Out of US/UK/EU nobody give a fuck about gay rights, pronounce, 72 genders and other attributes of woke culture. Nobody considering it to be any “freedom” but rather what is already used as tool for oppression and coercion. Here on tumblr echo chamber you can deny it how much you want but the world (real one and not just western civilization) are so fed up with your woke bullshit that they are moving towards the East (Russia/China). And unlike you, Westerner politics are feeling how dominating chairs are already shaken under their old butts.

Trump is just a rebranding approved by deep state. Russia has already become a new and attractive stronghold of conservative values. Why immigrate in the West, where you will be forced to kneel before a black man and swear loyalty to LGBT, and where your child can undergo gender reassignment surgery without your consent when you can immigrate to Russia and just work there without all the above? This is already happening. People who want to create are coming to Russia, those who want to live on benefits are going to the West. Do I need to explain the dangers that this brings? Current situation is bad for Russia because for a while the West will again become a more attractive place for immigration, and once again undecided countries will begin to waver in their choice of sides.

Anyway, nothing will change. Trump and his team will make a façade but behind it all will remain the same in the Western society. Dems left over themselves lots of shit and bad decisions, they will blame all the consequences on the Republican Party and return triumphantly at the next election, when the common people will begin to obediently hate the Reds, as always.

Here is a bit of the realpolitik for you. And ideologies are for the dummies to manipulate them better.

[prettyvintageafternoon]

Daily reminder that the anti-abortion position will never be a feminist, left-wing or progressive position, and the pathological need of pro-lifers to tokenize minorities and certain experiences that we have needs to be studied.

First off, I find it very funny that an organization known for having its white members engage in physical violence, trespassing and digging in the trash for fetal remains is now trying to lecture black women about intersectionality with regard to pregnancy and childbirth.

Reproductive justice is both a term and an ideology that black women specifically came up with in order to acknowledge how race and economic class play a role in reproductive access and decisions. The fact that an organization run and represented by white people pretending to be progressive is trying to check the women who came up with an actual progressive framework of beliefs to better represent their own interests is hilarious to me.

Second, PAAU is not a progressive organization. Its founder, Terrisa Bukovinac, is on the board of the Leadership Institute, a politically conservative training organization, and has gone to events hosted by the Heritage Foundation - a right-wing conservative think tank helping to drive anti-abortion legislation around the country by supporting conservative Republican politicians in various ways.

You even have members of this organization like @secularprolifeconspectus on Tumblr who will do interviews with people like Sebastian Gorka, who has had ties to the Order of Vitéz - a Hungarian order of merit which allied itself with Nazis during WWII.

(BTW, the IRONY of spending time talking about how Planned Parenthood is rooted in eugenics while talking about how conservatives are so much nicer than leftists to someone who has ties to a Nazi-sympathizing organization. Ma'am... 😬)

Then again, @secularprolifeconspectus also likes to spread lies like Abortion Pill Reversal™️, which isn't real, and repeats quotes from Abby Johnson, the famous anti-abortion activist who had two abortions and said that the police would be smart to racially profile her black sons in the wake of the Black Lives Matter Protests of 2020 following George Floyd's murder. 🙃

@secularprolifeconspectus has me blocked, but I'll just say this.

The irony of pretending to care about the interests of black people while rubbing shoulders with far-right political figures and reposting words from racist white women but also being confused as to why leftists don't like you is very telling.

Third, the information posted is wrong. It's very convenient that PAAU is "worried" about maternal morality in the DMV area when the U.S. states with the highest maternal mortality rates are Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama and North Carolina (CDC, 2023) - states with higher concentrations of black people that are also dominated by white, conservative political leadership which puts anti-abortion legislation in place. The DMV area is actually lower in comparison to these places, yet PAAU conveniently ignores that im order to paint a false narrative.

Source: Which states have the highest maternal mortality rates?, USA FACTS

Fourth, I also find it very funny that "progressive" pro-lifers have the audacity to accuse organizations run by minorities of hijacking progressive principles when that's all pro-lifers do by...

Using terms like "Abortion Industrial Complex" after anti-war advocates have been discussing the Military Industrial Complex for years

Acknowledging how finances and money plays a role in people choosing to get abortions but only every criticizing pro-choicers for supporting abortion access (*and conveniently never holding the very conservative anti-abortion movement accountable for the policy-making role they play in making people not want to have children in the first place)

Saying that abortion access is a part of Big Pharma, when forcing women to have children they don't want literally creates another patient pool for Big Pharma to subsist off of

Arguing that affordable healthcare, housing and clean water and nutrition - things that pro-choice activists have spent years advocated for (*and that conservative pro-lifers have spent years voting against), somehow cannot co-exist with abortion access

So yeah, removing abortion access from people who want it will never be progressive, and the fact that pro-lifers still try to tokenize minorities (and chastise us when we don't support their worldview) shows how little they actually care about those of us people of color.

[horizon-verizon]

I agree with you that the show is bad in terms of writing and characterization, and probably i won't even watch the next season, but if I'm being honest you seem to hate the show so much why are you still searching for posts related to the show and respond to it if it's bother you this much?

FIRST

I don't actively or habitually search for the show or anything related to it in Tumblr with the purpose of fighting with others or proving how smart I am.

I do reblog with corrections, counterarguments, or praise if I feel strongly enough about what's being said AND if I have the energy

posts about it pop up in my feed in the "Based on what you liked!" list because I don't block their tags

OR I get asks about the show's characters and/or writing.

I write of the main experience I have to write against the claim that I "search" for HotD posts as if it is a continuous action. This is what usually happens. And the person sending the asks about HotD are usually those who only ever watched the show and never read the books, are antis, or have skimmed the books and read the wikis instead of actually doing some independent thought and deeper research with comparative analyses.

It is less common/rare for me to begin a discussion from an original green stans or an avid HotD lover. *EDIT* Now, as of 2023, there are asks with links to posts by others (mostly made by green stans) that the asker asks me to consider/think about and respond. I mostly respond to those already responding to others or to those who make comments and reblogs of my own posts, like what happened in my Sansa POST and one Daemon/Nettles POST.

I’m saying, anon, that it could be a lot worse. I could become a greater menace to others on this blog than you presently think.

SECOND

Before I started writing original posts or answers to asks, I collected various team black and team green posts, and I still do so today. Why? Because I actually wanted/still want to know the arguments each team makes. Because in general, I like and want to hear how people think about things.

I came to Tumblr wanting to collect posts and make a blog I can use to reference material and arguments but still have more personal freedoms to do this. (Which is also why I refuse to put “anti” tags just for the sake of “politeness”.)

I basically want to make my blog a reference point thus I will force myself to add stuff about HotD/greens’ opinions as much as I can stomach.

I want to know what logic they present, where does it fall short, what maybe-good points they make, how much they actually know about history, human psychology -- how much I know and need to know about somethings after reading, etc.

Which is related and goes into my next reason....

THIRD

It’s not a matter of superficial “like” and “dislike”. The show “bothers” me more than a matter of bad writing and bad characterization.

After watching the show, you get more people feeling justified by their already existing illiteracy/refusal to learn (beyond their conservatism) and their theories about the canon material. (POST).

You even get people mixing up the show’s events and portrayals and changes with the canon, thus there are people out there with ideas of what this story/part of the Westerosi history is about when they are simply ill-informed or dead wrong.

It’s twisting the narrative, checking all the boxes, to make it more “modern”, “palatable” to performative activism, or/and (thus) make it a lot more marketable to more people. To follow up and revitalize the fervor for the horrid ending of GoT (which was itself sexist as hell) without actually keeping the substance and philosophical/political weight of the original story that lets us know the greens were the unequivocal villains.

Here are a few reblogs/posts/articles by me and others about the actors, marketability, how HotD fails at some things, etc.: POST, POST (you can go to the “performative activism” part), POST, POST, POST, POST (you should really get into this one, it begins to explain how the writing itself doesn’t support accountability), POST, POST, POST, POST, POST,  POST (this one talks about Hollywood and Rhaenyra and feminism). Your choice to read all or a few or none.

And after listening to the “neutrals” AND what non “neutrals” say about “neutrals” (of both teams), I found that there is no such thing as a “neutral” unless you really never or never watched/read any ASoIaF product and thus have no existing opinion about its themes and characters and events. But then you’re not a fan, you’re just someone who knows the fandom exists.

Unless you are like the former brideoffires (Tumblr)/starlight and seafoam (Twitter), who looks at the F&B characters--esp Rhaenyra--as set up to Dany's story and recognize the larger composite picture of misogyny-leads-to-great conflict/Dany-is-the-fixture (to put it very simply).

When you read about the Dance and if you know anything about civil wars and how/why they happen, you should know that you can almost never philosophically or ideologically not pick or at least favor a side. It’s nearly impossible once we are acquainted with why the sides are fighting and the historical details of how this civil conflict happened in the first place, specifically when one side has done nothing to the other before, nor present any true, future threat. Of course things change, as they do in the Dance where the sides commit war crime after war crime & lose more of their own kids, but it was very clear the greens began it through the sexist usurpation to gain power for themselves; they also had little to actually fear from either Rhaenyra or any lord if she had ascended peacefully.

Again, unless we don't know, we can't fully care, and once you start actually caring, then you take a side and form strong opinions. In civil wars, there exists hatred or the need for dominance within the territory itself and it usually comes from a particular background that cannot be ignored but can also be messy and conflicting.

Plus, I found that most of the neutrals (not all, one still has to listen to why one says they are "neutral") are really people who think the greens are in the moral right, are the “fun” and “better-developed” characters, or are the more politically savvy. Yet also refuse to look any deeper to see how their arguments make no sense for the story the show rips off of. Basically, team-greeners who refuse or don’t know they are wearing the cape, or are trying to hide it to make team blackers look stupid or get one on them and seem “reasonable” while actually trying to push forward this narrative of “soft femininity wins all”, conservatism, conformity, patriarchy, etc. 

This following is only in the observation that there are sympathy-changes made for them while the blacks and Rhaenyra are not only similarly dumbed down but also the writers have been trying to assign them certain negative traits or behaviors that can't be feasible as to what we understand them before the show existed.

HotD is actually fostering that sort of bullshit with its refusal to:

**(in context of the next 3 pts.)**Alicent and Aemond as they are: entitled, sexist, classist, blood purist people who intentionally attack and target Rhaenyra for the sake of power and male privilege

working behind the faux romance/friendship of Rhaenicent.

dumbing Rhaenyra down, watering her passion down

removing almost every character's accountability or drive for power (female for this one) by making them more reactive than active and even then there not much of a substantial or meaningful reaction

sexistly making Alicent a dumber and more sexually abused version of herself, giving all of her accomplishments or actions to her father, Otto. Benevolent sexism.

Thus I cannot ignore the show or its glaring faults. It has such popularity and influence over how people think about women, children, who deserves what and how/why, and how people express themselves and live with such cognitive dissonance, that I feel I have to say something against it. Even if it’s a dumb Tumblr post.

[drearyhours]

spending more time on twitter honestly made me realize that yes, being in echo chambers is in fact a problem, but not for the reason you think.  Exposing yourself to ideas you don’t like isn’t going to make you more nuanced per se, but it will give you much needed perspective.  Most importantly, it gets you used to the idea of not levying mob justice and “normal people” and your army of followers for your petty grudges when the greater population is malicious centrists who do not give a shit about you. 

When every big blog moved from tumblr to twitter and immediately tried to do the “get a load of this dude its so gross! die! delete! block me!” type thing over their petty grudges they all immediately got bodied by the armies of asshole youtuber fans.  And while most of them immediately deleted, others were actually smart enough to realize that people like that are the actual problem and that we all honestly have bigger fish to fry than r-worded community infighting.  But the fact is, it will change you and make you a better person at communicating your ideals, you just need that catalyst of calling a guy whose clearly a nazi a nazi and then having 50 people with yoshi avatars go “nah bruh this aint it fr they live rent free in your head”.  Not only does it build character and humility, but after seeing how horrible so many people can be it makes you realize that maybe the things you care about don’t actually matter in the big picture when compared to the problems with society at large.

Then after you stare into the void of political inanity you come back to tumblr and there are people still discussing mousegirls and the ethics of anime.

I feel like I've nestled into a safe community, and I genuinely adore my mutuals and the friends I've gained. I finally feel like I can expand, talk about what I love, and just...bond with people.

𝐫𝐩 𝐩𝐞𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐬 / 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬. I really have a strong dislike for vague posting, I've stated this before but it never fails to make me feel anxious when I see it. As someone who has been vagueposted about/had hate spread about them--it makes me feel very uncomfortable and I dislike the whole idea. Just be upfront with the person if you're having an issue, or block and move on.

𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐟𝐟, 𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐬𝐭, 𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐦𝐮𝐭. I don't have a preference really! I really enjoy the development that comes from angst, but I would be lying if genuinely pure interactions between muses weren't delightful! As for smut, I'll do it but only if I feel very comfortable with the mun, and if the relationship as actual chemistry and we've discussed the ship.

𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐬. BOTH! I love memes and being silly, but I also love really long winded threads that may or may not lead anywhere. I vibe with the "this is the general direction, lets see what happens!" Since muses can change how things are "supposed" to happen at the drop of a hat.

𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬. Both! I try to match my partner (๑˘︶˘๑)

𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 ��𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞.  Really depends for me! I work during the day, but if I have off the following day I stay up stupidly late and thats when most of my creative juices start flowing.

𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐞(𝐬). Besides being somewhat smart and polite to most people-- no. Robin is very much in the dark triad and has done things my morals would never DREAM of letting me do. Plus I cannot lie, I get all teary eyed and dumb looking when I try.

For some reason, tumblr's reccomending me blogs that use the word "Marxist" or "Commie" as an insult. That's annoying but it can be solved with a block and moving on with my life, but I also want to put this out there as someone who used to do the exact same thing when I was propagandized during Trump's term as president:

Regurgitating the talking points of political firebrands doesn't make you smart, it makes you a tool.

These talking heads aren't interested in your intellectual or personal freedoms, they want you angry and afraid, because people that are angry and afraid are easy to control, and virally infect normally level-headed people with their own panic, expanding the herd.

If your response to someone saying they'd like walkable cities that didn't depend on automobile transportation is to call them a "Commie", I need you to understand that life isn't "Us vs. Them" like the people in high towers and broadcasting rooms claim it is. It's just Us.

Having said all of that, if you have a point about why walkable cities won't work or potential problems with implementing them, I'm open to hearing them just as long as we can keep it civil. Neither of us are about to start pouring concrete, so the best we can do is come to some kind of consensus and vote.

the tumblr comments are character limited so im posting this here, with the upmost respect:

while yeah, we can leave her alone,

the block button does Not Work and this Isn’t a user you can just ignore

in my own experience i had her blocked on every. single. possible. platform i have since 2 years ago and she’s still snuck into all of my accounts to steal my art among others who also have her blocked.

she still FOUND MY PERSONAL EMAIL that, to be fair, used to be on my carrd as a form of contact for commission purposes before i took it off over a year ago and i only found out when she emailed me just 2 months ago asking for forgiveness after i struck one of her videos down for reuploading my animatic, which by the way, i posted on accounts where i had her blocked.

(EDIT: i have realized she got my email because youtube showed it to her when i submitted the removal request. i did not even know that they’d do this until i went back and saw that when filling out the form, they autofilled the email box but they didn’t tell me they’d share it with the user until i clicked on the actual box. weird. but that answered my question i guess)

she reuploaded it without any given credit, on a platform where it was never meant to be uploaded in the first place.

call me harsh for doing this but this user has a history of either not replying to artists who politely ask her to take her reuploads down or just. finding another artist to steal work from.

people in the past have also had her in their ask boxes requesting vore fics or art or shit like that when they clearly have nsfw as part of their dni lists on their bio

this isn’t me inciting a witch hunt or saying that we have a right to leave hate comments on her videos, or find ways to mock her in public, people who do that aren’t really taking this matter seriously. while i have my doubts, she probably is a minor faking her age. she isn’t doing very smart things online but she is still doing bad things and not learning from it

bottom line. the block button may be free but it sure as hell isn’t guaranteed to keep her away from your stuff. people who have been personally affected by this user publicly voicing their frustrations of constantly having their shit stolen/reuploaded without their consent have a right to be angry.

among many examples, this isn’t her oc by the way

i have a bit of a platform in this community, so I'm going to say this:

leave princessherogirl alone.

they are very clearly a minor who isn't doing very smart things online.

use your block button, it's free.

Hashirama’s political marriage to Mito was to strengthen Leaf as a new military village. I get it that the serious lovers of hashisaku pairing, who’re under the impression that this could actually work (’cause Sakura was robbed in Canon; she’s always duking robbed!), aren’t all that bright, but Hashirama tossing aside the wife he took in for political reasons for Sakura ... is one of the most idiotic things I’ve ever heard. What would Sakura offer to him compared to Mito? Nothing. And Tobirama? He was probably ... gay or completely asexual. Why would Sakura interest him? She’s completely ordinary, and she possesses no talent to invent nor any natural ability for him to study. She isn’t even remotely prodigious to even mildly interest him.

So, let me get this straight... You see fit to pick a fight with the shipper of a harmless rarepair, why, again? A ship that barely makes a blip on the Founders' side of the fandom's radar, just to bandwagon the same shit Sakura-anti's have been peddling for years? Aside from the fact that your argument is the most tired bullshit in existence, I'm going to state it over in case it's not getting through your thick skull:

The ship on places like tumblr or twitter are tagged. On Ao3, it's tagged. Instead of bitching and moaning about a ship you could easily avoid, you could block the tags and move on. It's not fucking rocket science. If you go out of your way to seek it, that's a you-issue, not that of us shippers.

Secondly, why is it the Founders' fandom only gets possessive of Hashirama when shipping him with Sakura is involved? From what I've seen, you all are happy to shit on Hashi's character for miles around, belittling him as a dumb idiot who can't function without his brother as if he wasn't the most powerful shinobi in the fucking series, who was a charismatic military leader capable of bringing even his clan's sworn and ancient enemies under the fold to unite in a revolutionary village that was his idea in the first place? But no, unless it's convenient, he's either dumb as a rock or people hamfist one-dimensional yandere tropes to make his brother or Madara look like poor little meow-meows.

And don't even get me started on how ya'll treat Hashimito, let alone Mito. 'Political marriage', where? Show me irrevocable proof that Hashimito was only a political marriage, that Hashirama didn't grow to love and cherish his wife with time. I mean, fuck's sake, this pairing was the blueprint for ships like Dantsu, Minakushi, and Naruhina, but instead your reductive take was that it was just for political gain? Or how she's the awful, bad lady who gets in the way of pairings like Hashimada (even if smart people polyship them, but I guess I'm not one of them, according to you).

Again with the headcanons. Show me complete and utter proof that a manga with heteronormative endgame ships that Tobirama was gay or asexual. (And don't bring SNS into the mix when Kishi literally based them off his relationship with his twin brother, you naughty incest shippers! /s)

Oh, but the horror of shipping him with Sakura! In a horrible, terrible ship that barely has 50 fics to its name! Won't someone think of the poor Hashimada shippers who have almost ~2k fics on Ao3? Or Tobimada that blitzes well past it when Tobisaku has barely 120? Goodness gracious, someone save them!

I mean, who can ever think of shipping the poor Senju bros with a woman who didn't even exist in their era, who is usually transplanted via Genswap or time travel AU's? In fanworks that absolutely affect canon! Wow, she's such a threat! I mean, gosh, she's just soooo useless with how she became the strongest kunoichi in the Leaf, the greatest med-nin in the world after her master's retirement, who was so gosh-darn useless as the heroine! I mean, it's not like she could mesh well with Hashirama who's stated to have healing abilities greater than Tsunade! Oh, they'd never get along. And I bet she'd never get her foot through the door with Tobirama, especially since Sakura's expertise with biomedical sciences would grate so much against his own expertise in similar fields! And the fact that they share similar values just wouldn't do! Y'know, since their shared morals and desire to protect humanity and the village just wouldn't work! Awful, just awful.

Also... why on earth do you assume Tobirama would want to boink a test subject? I don't know about you, but that sounds awfully belittling despite how high of an esteem you hold for you him, supposedly. So what if she isn't test subject-worthy? I don't know about you, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to fuck someone I'm about to cut into, but that's just me. (And for the love of gods, don't bring Tobimada into this. Saying that every Tobimada shipper sees this as the sole reason they ship it is, again, pretty damn insulting to them lmao--)

Besides that, Sakura has invented jutsu before, my dear, pea-brained friend. She created Cherry Blossom Impact, drastically expanded on chakra-enhanced strength in the novels, devised the Delicate Illness Extraction Technique, a chakra radar, among others. But, again, if you dilute your reasons for shipping a pairing based on how much jutsu they've invented, who's being shallow here, exactly? The way I see it, Tobirama would want to be with someone intelligent who is strong enough to protect the village and who shares similar values as him. Why would he care about arbitrary things like how much he could experiment on? He's not Dr. Frankenfurter, please.

And even if people ship them because they self-insert in Sakura and want to ship her because she's the heroine and some rando, Founder or otherwise, is hot, who cares? This is fucking fandom. Shipping isn't activism or a career, and sure as hell doesn't add anything to canon except enjoyment in the fanbase. It's 2022 and it's too late in Naruto's existence to care about intellectual quandaries surrounding shipping, of all things. If you do, then good lord--see a therapist. Get a different hobby outside of fandom, it sounds like you need it.

But, thanks for being an amusing waste of time. I'll be sure to reflect on this when I continue writing my Foundersaku stories, buh-bye!

A Rant About Ikesen’s Treatment of Motonari

I’ve been away from tumblr for a while but I had to come back for this.

So something I’ve noticed throughout playing Ikesen is the way that the game is very biased agains Motonari and I think it needs to be addressed because he is the only brown character and his portrayal is full of harmful stereotypes against brown men. I love this game but I haven't seen a single person acknowledge how badly Motonari is treated by the creators and the fandom as a result of that.

Also any racist comments will be blocked.

Possible route spoilers under the cut…

So lets start with the obvious, he is the only dark skinned character in Ikesen and when I first started playing I was so happy about that because finally (regardless of his ethnicity which honestly in this portrayal of him can be up for debate, I HC him as south East Asian) we are getting some representation. Throughout the game though I started noticing a lot of harmful stereotypes being thrown onto him that none of the other characters face.

Both him and Nobunaga are relatively misogynistic, I’m not denying that at all. However the way it is portrayed in their routes is very different. Nobunaga should in fact have sexual harassment charges, yet its romanticized repeatedly throughout his route. Motonari on the other hand treated MC as a possession the same way Nobunaga did, however he is shown as aggressive and scary as opposed to Nobunaga being shown as sexy and romantic.

There is also a difference in their respective CG’s 

Motonari’s CG is shown much more threatening and aggressive than Nobunaga’s

That brings me to my next point. Every other antagonist so far is shown to have a gentle and redeemable side. Kenshin threatened to wage war on the whole country while keeping MC locked in a cell yet he is still shown to be gentle and romantic. Kennyo repeatedly kidnaps and threatens MC’s life in other routes yet he is shown as a gentle monk who just wants revenge for his fallen brethren. Why doesn't Motonari get that level of consideration and empathy? Why is he, the only brown man, shown as an aggressive two-dimensional brute in every single route that isn’t his own? And this is a harmful stereotype that shows itself in all kinds of media. Brown men are depicted as predatory and aggressive both in fiction and real life.

This leads me to his ethnicity (I’m only talking about Ikesen’s portrayal of Motonari, I am well aware he was a Japanese warlord irl). In his route there is a part where he is talking about slavery and colonialism. As a South Asian woman I completely understand his perspective and its what got me thinking about this subject in the first place.

This subject is clearly personal to him. These lines, the way he looks as opposed to the other characters, and the fact that he speaks Spanish (around this time period the Philippines were being colonized by Spain), leads me to head cannon him as South East Asian, specifically Filipino. However, historically, Motonari comes from a region of Southern Japan, which is known as Hiroshima today. Cybird meant to market him as Okinawan. A large part of the reason Motonari is being treated this way by Cybird stems from the fact that people from Okinawa face racism from mainland Japan. Considering the fact that this game was made in Japan, and knowing what we know about their history of colonization, racism, and east asian beauty standards revolving around colorism, I am honestly not surprised that Motonari is being portrayed like this.

Until now they just showed his reason for fighting the Oda to be “oh I just want to watch the world burn for no reason”. But no that’s not the reason. These lines. That’s the reason. A lot of the context behind those lines comes from the fact that comes from because people from mainland Japan treated Okinawan people as slaves. He doesn’t want to see another colonizer come into power. Sure he’s a bit of an extremist but historically people who have this ideology have always been portrayed as savage and barbaric and “against the betterment of society” (think Jet from atla or even Malcom x). It’s no different in ikesen. The devs are clearly villainizing this ideology. Let’s not forget the fact that irl Hideyoshi invaded Korea. And the fact that anime and otome games are part of Japan’s way of erasing their war crimes and rebranding themselves to the rest of the world. It’s blatantly obvious here with the way they’re villainizing Motonari for having a perfectly valid reason to fight the Oda. If Japan stays divided they can’t invade and colonize other countries like the Philippines can they? Anti-colonialism = bad. 

Lastly I want to talk about how they downplayed his abilities as a leader and a warlord in his own right. In all the other routes he is depicted as less educated and frankly “dumb”, and it shows itself in his speech patterns too. Compared to Nobunaga and Mitsuhide, Motonari’s speech is stereotypically “less educated” and “lower class”. Yet he is just as much of a leader as any of the other warlords. However instead of acknowledging that, the game chooses to focus on his crimes and behavior as a pirate, instead of his role as the head of the Mouri clan.

At one point Kicho even compares his intelligence to a fifth grader which just rubs me the wrong way because lets take a moment to actually look at Motonari’s abilities. He is multilingual, has knowledge of global politics and economics, is an amazing businessman, and extremely analytical. He is literally known as the God of Decit, yet I did not hear that name once until his route came out. His strategies are good enough to be called a god, yet that is completely buried in the other routes in order to simplify his character into a trigger happy psychopath and a violent brute. He is just as smart as Nobunaga yet he is not given the credit he deserves.

Both Motonari and Nobunaga are extremely similar yet because of the horribly biased portrayals, Motonari is one of the least popular characters whereas Nobunaga is the second most popular. It makes me angry to see people in the fandom choosing to blindly hate Motonari without recognizing the fact that this stems from a frankly racist portrayal of an extremely intelligent and powerful character. Although truthfully, I blame the devs because if they had given his character even half the consideration and depth the others got, this would not be the case. 

You can disagree with me if you want. I am simply bringing attention to something I haven’t seen being addressed.

I hope in future routes, events, and sequels he is treated better by the devs and and the fandom. Please stop projecting racist stereotypes onto brown men.

Want to understand what is happening on Twitter?

Let me tell you a story of a bygone age, of the age of: 

Imagine if you will it is the mid 2000s. The Invasion of Iraq is in full swing and blogging was the new hotness. So was #Mozilla's open source web browser: Firefox.  Now Firefox either introduced or popularized a lot of features, like multi-tab browsing and addons. One of those addons was Clipmarks. It allowed anyone to use a snipping tool to "clip" parts of any website (including videos from YT) and share them on their blogs. It also had its own website, just like Twitter, Facebook, or more relevant, Tumblr. You could share your clips there and people could comment on them. Except that the site had no moderation: no mods and no moderation tools.

If you are thinking to yourself, "OMG" then you are right. The devs/owners claimed the reason for this was because they were, "Free Speech Absolutists", but the trolls called it Paradise. Specifically one troll who we will call Willy.  Now Willy was a wily troll (hehehe), not very smart, but then stupid people are stupid because they don't know how stupid they are. So Willy would come to your clips comment section and drop paragraph long diatribes that boiled down to, "Marx is bad evil, ummkay?  Of course he was very much into "feigning intelligence" and wanted to come out as erudite and smarter than anyone else so he used the word, "Materialism". But he was a hardcore  one-note right-wing libertarian. Naturally, two things happened:

1. He attracted cruder cohorts. Think Shapiro/Walsh/Fuentes line of trolldom.

 2. There was push back from the left-side of Clipmarks.

Remember this is in the mid 00s. The country was sharply divided around the War on Terror and many of the clips in clipmarks were about the subject. Back then we thought G.W. Bush was the record holder for dumbest President. How naïve we were.

Then as all successful tech startups, the owners started shopping clipmarks around, but no one would buy a clear example of the Internet Wild West. So they implemented self-mod options, like blocking unwanted commentators from clips.  This made Olde Willy apoplectic. He ranted and raved at the owners in ever long diatribes. It was all about his "Free Peach" and so on. You know the drill. In response the owners tried to explain to him that this was not, in fact, a violation of his rights. 

But you see a troll doesn't want to simply express themselves. They want to dominate a space. They want to stand on the bridge and demand a toll mainly whatever shibboleth marks you as being part of their tribe.  So Willy fanned the flames, invaded other people's clips and posted longer and longer rants. The owners responded by giving certain users secret mod powers which of course let to shadow banning.  As the conflagration spread  all the folks that simply wanted to share kitty videos or recipes left in droves, as did the targets of the trolls. So the trolls won, right?  

 Nope. The owners had already sold the company to Forbes who simply neglected it. It withered on the vine with the echoes of repeated and rancid political arguments. A flash in the pan of the internet's wild west days and an object lesson for today.

Trolls will always burn the house down to get what they want and what they crave is attention + control. If a troll has enough money he can buy the most popular social media site and burn it to the ground himself only to prove that he can. Thus endeth the lesson.

Idk why people think using a condescending tone makes them sound smart. But sure. Let’s go with it since that’s the tone you want to set. You fixated on a lot of shit that wasn’t my point. So how bout I streamline it for you.

Saying there are people in the world unaware of the issues in Israel and Palestine is like saying people were unaware of COVID during 2020. Let’s be real. As much as it’s talked about on every major news network around the globe? Please. I highly doubt someone is gonna go to Ariana Grande’s page and say “oh I had no idea this was happening.”

But back to my point, I literally ended it with get up, get out, and do something in the real world rather than waiting on a celeb to speak up for a cause. Speak up yourself. You don’t have to donate if you don’t got it. But you can organize your community, your neighbors, your friends. The people you can actually see and speak to and know that they are actively working to help in any way they can. Rather than just hoping ONE of Lizzo’s 13 million followers decides to donate 🙄. The people on the streets, making the calls, sending those emails, protesting. THEY are doing something. And THEY understand that it’s not just gonna be a quick fix. They understand that it’s gonna take more than a celebrity’s clout. They get that they will continuously have to protest and sit outside of political buildings until things get done. That’s how my community did it during the Civil Rights movement. They didn’t have 13 million followers but they still changed this country. And we hold our politicians accountable over here. Don’t know if you know much about American politics but our ex president is on trial as we speak. Now will justice be served? Who knows. But at the very least we not letting people just get away with whatever unscathed. I guess we can’t say the same for you guys and your prime ministers? I guess. I’m not gonna speak on something I don’t know about.

Arguing with “blatant Zionist”? What’s the point in that? You can’t change their minds. Having productive talks in safe spaces with like minded people was more along my suggestion. You’d be surprised who in your own neighborhood has power or resources that could help. Maybe it’s one of those mega protected CEOs you’re talking about. I live down the street from millionaires but I’m not one myself.

How do I know? Because I went to speak with them in real life about the causes and organizations that I care about. I asked them to personally donate. To use their resources to help my community and others. But of course skim through my tumblr and assume you know me lmao. Cause apparently my tumblr is my resume.

This is a literal anonymous page, hun. My NAME is not even on here neither is my face. You know why? Because I’m here to talk about the fucking MET Gala bitch! Lmfao! I don’t follow a single celeb you see on my page. I already don’t follow a single celeb on the block list you posted! I know what I see on tumblr and what hits the news. I don’t idolize them!! I don’t have parasocial relationships with them. They can’t influence me to do shit. And I’m not gonna assume they care about the same things I care about. Nor am I gonna force them to care about the same things I care about. This new generation is so attached to celebrities that they think everyone else shares that same attachment. I guess that’s neither here nor there for this convo since I don’t know how old you are. My point is I’m not here to prove to people on the internet that I’m an activist. I do my activism in the streets of my community. I work with non profit organizations , I write grants. I fund raise. Since you pressed about my credentials Lol. I’ll send my LinkedIn if you need it 🤨

My point still stands. Y’all give celebrities too much credit. But I ain’t gotta argue with you about it. I just gotta sit and give it a few months and see just how all these celebrities losing followers is actually going to help the people of Palestine. And the MANY OTHER COUNTRIES in need. I see you didn’t respond to that part 🙄.

But I bet you would like for me to shut up lol. So I will girl. I’ll shut my pretty ass up and wait for the news that all these celebrities, in hopes of regaining their lost followers, have caused such unprecedented donations and wide spread concern for the war that the war in Gaza has officially ended. And I’ll be right there with flowers and an apology for you 🤭

Over on Tiktok, people are organising to mass block celebrities that haven't talked about Palestine in a campaign called "Blockout 2024". This has spread to Twitter and Instagram as well.

The idea is to mass block a list of major celebrities, including their brands and fan pages, and ignore them. Celebrities get money when we hate on them, but blocking and ignoring them makes them loose attention and therefore money.

Does it work? Well yes! Lizzo lost several million followers in a day and has suddenly spoken out in support of Palestine. You only need to block a social media account. Its very easy.

Which platforms? As many as you have or use. This includes Spotify!

Which celebs? A lot of peoples blocklists vary but the names I've seen the most are:

Taylor Swift

Rihanna

Beyoncè

Kim Kardashian

Kylie Jenner

Selena Gomez

However, the idea is to block all celebrities and influencers that don't support Palestine or haven't spoken out for Palestine. This can be ANY celebrity or influencer, and yes, this includes Kpop and MCYT. Encourage your fandoms and fan bases to block!

YOU, the consumer, provide a celebrities income. No consumer, no income. It's time to utilise that power!

[againwiththeturtles]

imagine the atla characters had tumblrs: top five or three that you would block and why 👀

Oho ok yes *cracks knuckles*

(in no particular order)

Well. I hate to say it but I feel like if you gave Katara social media (of any kind) she would use it to be toxic as all hell. (She’s 14 and she has strong opinions that you Will listen to.) She would be so stubborn and mean in fandom arguments, AND she would guilt-trip people into agreeing with her.

I feel like Ty Lee’s blog itself would be pleasant and pretty, but I also think she would Love to go into people’s inboxes and just leave the most infuriating, specific, obviously incorrect hot takes just to get into arguments with strangers on the internet. To be honest, my twin desires to prove that my opinions are valid and my love of arguing would probably mean I’d fall for this, but once I shook myself out of my haze, I’d block her. (unless she stayed on anon, which she’s def smart enough to do...)

Azula. She’d probably post a lot about her political views, and canon Azula is a little too interested in totalitarianism! This would freak me out. If she also posted about fandom (ik this is the fandom website, but i’m not sure azula would get into that) it would probably also be the Weirdest and Worst discourse.

I was thinking about Toph, but I think her brand of trolling would be funny and I’d end up following. Some days I would wonder *why* I’m still here, and others I’d be like oh yeah it’s worth it. Another person who I considered, but would actually probably follow, is Jet. I think he’d be really good at understanding plot and themes. (edit: ok wait i think i would follow Jet for his opinions on media, then discover that he has Bad opinions as well, in many other ways, and block him.)
