You're not wrong in your words about how actors/actresses aren't their characters and shouldn't be talked of as if they are meant to please their fans 24/7 but teenagers are still children and should probably be addressed with less vitriol than your post conveyed.

People tend to respond better to guidance and help rather than criticism and harsh words. You as a 30+ adult should know better, perhaps you should go outside and get some sunshine? Instead of getting angry at literal teenagers who need to be taught better, be instructed on proper fandom etiquette, shown that irl actors/actress has nothing to do with their characters, etc. All that can be done nicely.

Rant or vent all you wish on your blog, it's yours to do whatever you wish on, but don't expect any positive or eye-opening reaction to come from your post. If anything it will likely drive those you're addressing to double down and argue with you, or you will turn people away because your post is nasality worded.

No matter how right you are, it's how you address the issue and the people involved that make the difference and thusly effects the outcome.

You seem to be under the impression it is my job to guide and/or teach these children. It isn't. I'm not their parent, teacher, counselor, mentor, or any other person in a position of guiding and teaching, nor are many other adults here. And it sure as hell isn't my job to be nice about anything. Furthermore, while yes the vast majority of the obx fanbase are teenagers a good chunk exhibiting this behavior are grown ass adults. I'm not about to sugarcoat my frustration for the sake of some teens that might get their feelings hurt in the process.

If teenagers on tumblr in 2023 can't handle an irritated older person telling them to stop being weirdos then they probably shouldn't be here in the first place.

Crazy how Bruce gave himself amnesia via hypnosis and was counting on Dick to say the release phrase that would give him his memories back despite the fact that he never told Dick his plan nor the release phrase in the first place. He simply trusted Dick to figure it out and save him.

Batman: Gotham Knights #11

It's like the time Bruce jumped off a crane because he just assumed Dick would swing in at the last second to save him (and Dick did).

Samus Aran from Metroid Fusion as a Symbiote from Marvel

Another once in a blue moon drawing of Samus if her Fusion Suit was a Symbiote. The one thing stopping me from drawing this AU more often is that I can't come up with good poses for it for my life. As such here she is in one of Dark Samus's poses from Smash Ultimate.

Wonder how Wu would feel about the fact that there exists a puppet of him in our world considering his trauma surrounding these kinds of puppets-

The American novelist describes how she overcame her fears of a classical backlash to write a gay love story about Achilles and Patroclus

I feared that my classics peers and professors would hate the idea. There is a long history of gatekeeping in classics. Attempts to expand the lens of scholarship have sometimes been met with open hostility, and women and scholars of colour have been undermined and belittled.

One of my professors had started his course with the following salvo: “This is a class on Greek history, so I don’t want to hear any questions about women or slaves.” A young woman taking the revered and traditionally male epic material of the Iliad and centring it as a gay love story might not thrill people.

...while I hoped that at least some classicists might like the book, I wanted this story to be for everyone, whether they knew classics or not, maybe even especially if they didn’t.

I wanted this book to be that kind of story: one with open arms, with room for everyone who might want to come in.

People are like Elain doesn't belong in the night court when she literally smells like the night court i mean.

In review, girl's scent is not named: rose, lilac, daylilly, lavender, peony, gardenia, honeysuckle, etc.

It is night blooming jasmine.

To be clear there are 212 species of jasmine and 400,000 flowering plant species in the world, and this bitch smells like night blooming jasmine.

Cestrum nocturnum.

Also referred to as lady of the night, night-scented jessamine, night-scented cestrum or poisonberry.

Like ... y'all.

Lmao imagine fundamentally misunderstanding poetry so much that you write THIS about Mary Oliver - somebody now regarded as one of the greatest poets in the American literary canon.

“Poetry shouldn’t be helpful or life-changing.” My man. Have you ever actually read a poem that you enjoyed? Are you okay???

Heads up, y’all, I might do some serious reorganizing which could involve me changing both my pfp and username.

I originally created this blog with the intention of it being for 1 OC in 1 fandom, but I’ve outgrown it by 3 or 4 OCs that I also like to use for more than one fandom. Concurrently. As well as use this as a general fandom/other stuff I like kinda-blog. Which is a tagging nightmare.

Because there is something inherently wrong with me, and as a slut for organization and categorizing, my solution is potentially using side-blogs to simplify everything for me.

The plan would be to switch this blog url from Rhaella-Rhavelli to anew-flame.

I’ve decided to make a side-blog for each of my OCs, which will maybe encourage me to post their stuff more but who knows but I’m undecided about using the Rhaella-Rhavelli url for OC-of-the-same-name designated side-blog.

This blog, to become anew-flame if I continue, would be my general fandom stuff and other things. Still reblogging all the same stuff, to include DA and Arcana fandom, but I’m opening it up for lots of other stuff now too 😌

My other side blog, @bob-loblaws-reblogs-blog’s fate is undecided right now.

Anyway, just FYI in case y’all don’t recognize me on your dashes in the next few days!
