I hate how fandom has become "if you haven't created anything in this very specific time frame after the release of the show/movie, everyone will have moved on"

And call me old fashioned, but that's just not me. I sometimes take ages to create and publish. And I will love a show or movie for such a long time (years, babes, years) that I just can't relate to the fast consumerism that's going on.

Because, let's be real, it can get really lonely in a fandom if most have simply moved on to the next shiny thing. Is what's created less worth, just because it was created outside the hype? Why is it such a taboo for this new fandom generation to love an old or "late" fic or art?

It's so tiring and I'm too old for the 30-seconds-hype-tiktok-shit. Just tired. So, so tired.

#semi rant #cry into the void #and no i'm not shaming young ppl in general #it's this new wave of people entering fandom which can happen at any age lbr #and I don't understand them nor do I want to atp #if you're wondering why you can't rb anymore: I switched it off bcuz people can't fucking read and piss me off with their dumb additions

the thing is I already know that men and society at large hate women. I know that young men in particular increasingly skew right and towards misogyny (I've read the articles, although all I really need to do is spend any time on any part of the internet to see the evidence). but then every so often something like this happens where it still somehow surprises me. like my god.. they really hate us this much.

#also the thing that's supposed to be a glimmer of hope is that younger generations are more progressive #and you can tell yourself that as time goes on that will reflect in society #but when for example the exit polls suggest a massive discrepancy in young men vs young women voters #it feels like jesus what's the point these men in our own age category are just growing up learning to hate us #talking

He may be a God, but I am a Scientist

#I drew this without referencing anything but there's a voice in the back of my head thats like 'you've seen this exact drawing before'#and like I know I've seen the general visual concept around but I now I can't find specific examples and its itching in the back of my head #think I was also inspired by the arcane s2 opening. But if anyone's seen this exact concept potentially with?? the text too?? let me know #but Im not sure if its just my brain playing tricks on me. ANYWAY this was mostly practice for doing more interesting/symbolic rendering :3 #gravity falls #young stanford pines #stanford pines #ford pines #fan art #fanart #GF bord #Bill is there in spirit #BoB #Book of Bill #GF fanart #painting #artists on tumblr #my art

The world is so obsessed with young ppl everything is about what the youth is doing. Everyday id mag is releasing an article on what young ppl in Tokyo are wearing what about middle aged ppl or old ppl who have lived long enough to know the patterns of humanity. Are they not interesting or what

#txt #like… idk how I could live my life where everywhere I look is always talking about young ppl and not my generation yknow what I mean?#like rn I’m fine cuz I’m also young the things that are talked about are relevant to me #but where I’m 45 how am I gonna know what’s hip with my crowd how do I find out??#maybe I’m just having weird thoughts lol

So we all agree that the reason AU Silco was late to the party (and arriving exactly just before Powder's big entrance) was because he was helping his daughter get ready for her date? There's a reason why she's dressed like young him

#he probably went 'this worked on Vander back in the day so it'll work on your boy too sweetie'#I'd like to imagine he did her makeup as well #not because she couldn't do it herself but because he insisted #'I used to wear eyeliner like that and all the boys flocked to me like geese to bread'#just generally having a really cute dad/daughter moment #arcane #silco #powder #arcane silco #arcane powder #silco arcane #powder arcane #young silco #zaundads #arcane spoilers #arcane s2

we need to abolish the idea that ancient greek myths and legend have a coherent timeline. they do not. for any given myth there are like 10 heroes mentioned that feasibly could not have been adults or even alive. herakles keeps showing up in places where he should probably be dead. anyone could be a suitor of helen. even herakles. even theseus if you count that kidnapping stint he did. nestor is alive for 10 billion years. time is fake and anything beyond vague generational outlines is conjecture

#the thing about classical studies is sometimes you gotta just accept that sometimes We Dont Fucking Know #a majority of our sources are GONE. we don’t have the full picture and its impossible to make definite statements off fragmentary evidence #is achilles older than patroclus? is he younger? NO IDEA. myth is a fluid tradition. who give a shit #all that matters is: is this guy the same general age range? is he young enough that hes got less respect? is he old enough to earn respect?#and if anyone cites wikipedia at me for this post im killing them with lasers #tagamemnon
