It’s wild how shipping culture has changed so drastically over time on the internet.

In the old days people shipped characters who either had only one line of dialogue with each other, never even met, or not even from the same piece of media. It was the wild west and sure some ships were uncomfortable but people had the mindset to just block the tag and stay away from ships they didn’t enjoy.

Nowadays? It’s more like people have to clarify that their ship isn’t canon compliant, character adjacent, and story irrelevant otherwise they get a flood of comments saying “but this character isn’t like this in canon” and some people legitimately get angry if you’re not following the canon.

Like- shipping and fandom culture from what I understand it is about engaging with media in a way that caters to you. And if you don’t like a ship or show just… block the relevant tags and don’t engage in the ships? The internet isn’t supposed to cater to us- we have to cater ourselves to our internet environment. And no matter how many times people may harass others over a fandom or ship they don’t like, those ships are not gonna disappear.

The internet has just been getting worse when people have decided to place morality in their opinions by saying things like “if you enjoy the ship then you support (insert horrible thing here that’s usually completely unrelated to the ship itself)” when it used to be “eh, not my thing” and people just moved on.

And for the record this isn’t about a specific ship or anything- just an observation of how fandom has evolved (and regressed) over the years and I find it fascinating from a sociological perspective cause we still don’t know how having the internet from birth affects the development of kids and how that affects how they interact with others- isn’t that scary?

I know that’s slightly unrelated but the way people engage in media has been changing over they years and that also involves fandom and the maturity level thereof in the internet space and someone smarter than me could probably write a whole thesis paper about fandom culture and how the internet has hindered the social development of people and how that affects community specifically from a fandom lens.

Just- for your sanity younger internet children: it’s not worth harassing others over something as trivial as ‘it’s not canon that this character kisses another character.’ Just find ships you like. Block ships you don’t. And just enjoy your time doing what you like!

You can’t control the internet but you can nurture your little corner of it.

Holy shit bg3 IS like homestuck.

And Astarion really is similar to vriska. Like, now that the thoughts been beamed into my brain it'll never leave.

Vriska being made to Lure in people for her spider-mom otherwise it would eat her. Astarion having to Lure people in Cazador or be tortured.

Vriska having dubious morals and hurting people as she grew up in a society that taught pain and suffering. Then learning how to care and how to show that care over time, with the help of someone she comes to trust dearly.

Astarion literally doing that as well.

I'm going to be making connections like this every playthrough now, aren't I?

takes ur hands in mine. can i run away w u anon

no but seriously you are so galaxy brained for this. can't believe i dare to call myself vriskapilled yet i did not make this connection myself.

thinkin also abt how you can guide astarion away from or towards ascension, and how you get glimpses into different trajectories for vriska via the different versions of her in the dream bubbles...

brb i have got to screenshot this for the bg3-hs masterpost

You can use a lot of words you know? You don't have to talk yourself around stuff like "It's famous Nazi code for an abbreviation for their popular motto which I won't be repeating here" when you really can just explain that 88 is supposed to represent the Hitler salute because H is the 8th letter in the alphabet? You don't even have to say the words but I mean wouldn't it make more sense to actually explain something instead of vaguely talking around it for some sense of...of what? What's the use in nor calling the thing by it's name? Won't that do more harm than good? I mean if people know they shouldnt do something but don't really know why then they won't take it that serious no?

tyzias x mallek isnt a straight ship it's literally yaoi. And if you do say it's hetero then mallek is the woman. He'd be in the kitchen with a cute floral patterned apron while tyzias builds a deck or something

Went into ao3 the find any Ted/Ellen fics that may exist and came out shipping am/ellen/ted after reading the only two fics of them that exist, but honestly I considered it before going in because ot3's including ones where one of three are evil or at least morally dubious is a favorite of mine.

Anyway, maybe Im embarrassing myself but If you're interested I highly recommend:

And especially

Maybe I'll post my am/ellen/ted playlist later.

i love when there is a character with a strict moral code that doesnt let them do the thing they have to do so instead of breaking their morals they let their evil/morially dubious friend do it
