#nor do i harass people

[autisticlancemcclain]

Could you explain your position on Shallura? Since Allura was established as a teenager when she started dating Lance and Shiro was very clearly an adult. I can understand the bi shiro headcannon but the shallura thing worries me

i am going to remind yall that i have been in this fandom since 2016. and in the early seasons, allura was not established as a teenager. in fact she was coded as older, as closer to shiro's age -- there was a specific divide between her and the younger paladins that she did not have with shiro. they made her younger (both explicitly and in mannerisms) as the show went on. and i do not give a fuck about voltron like...post s4 and i didn't even watch s7-8. so like. especially with older fics, im going to enjoy shallura.

some fuck on utmv twitter is upset about proship vs anti shit and wants to "make a new version" of treehouse au because i fit the description of a proshipper 💀 im actually so fucking mad.

directly talking about it here so i can say

hey don't touch my fucking work just because you don't like me, maybe

ive stated it on twitter already but treehouse au is based off my own personal experiences and traumas as someone demisexual and is very much directly about me and my partner.

if you fucking touch it just because you can't stop being a pissbaby over fandom discourse, i don't know what i would do. the amount of disrespect is actually fucking atrocious.

Did christian linke actually do anything wrong beyond saying he didn’t see jayvik as romantic or are you guys just losing your shit over a difference of opinion?

Why are vetted accounts sending people stuff like this.

I mean it's clearly copy-pasted and sent to multiple people but this isn't even a donations ask. Imma guess the reason people aren't responding is because you're accusing them of not doing enough for Palestine and sending it to multiple people who you clearly don't check because I've been posting about and for Palestine since oct 7th when I learned about it.

Also yes he is looking for donations, you can check his account and find it. Why are you sending this guilt trippy stuff to people and accusing them of not caring enough? You don't know me? You send these to multiple people so your clearly not checking the account in question. This dose nothing to help you personally or the Palestinian cause, it just pisses people off and makes them question vetters.

omg guys proshipper isn't "basic dni criteria", like that list is supposed to represent actual irl issues(*), not some 2020 internet discourse. you guys are so annoying like if you're uncomfortable interacting with proshippers i understand and respect it, although you probably have a very twisted idea of what the word means (would make a separate post abt it but there are hundreds already). but please don't equate it to actual crimes. (*)also do you seriously think that a bigot troll is going to read your dni and be magically expelled from your strong aura. if anything it's going to make them want to harass you more. it's obvious that those lists are just a pose like "if i don't put racists dni they're gonna think i'm racist" NO aaagh you don't have to over-specify(?) everything about you when interacting online can we please go back to being normal istg. reject modernity embrace not writing a dni list and just blocking people like a normal person <3

[daincrediblegg]

Wait hang on before I follow are you pr*ship or are you a good person

I mean I personally don’t think those two things are mutually exclusive but like idk dude I’m just blogging here

[prismatoxic]

i know "follows me" is not a perfect metric for "someone who can be normal about ~problematic~ fiction" because some people just cannot fucking read and will ignore all the flashing neon signs i've put up, but when there's literally nothing else to go on it's all i really have to decide if i want to engage with someone or not

[ghstdsoldier]

no @ama-tcra-su because what i DONT think you are doing is actually the best NOR healthiest way to spread awareness about autumn.

Do I think folks need to be aware of her actions? Yes. Absolutely. I do. Do I think you are handling this properly. ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT.

I knew the original victim and writer of her original callout. and i knew there was an updated/modified version of it with ADDITIONAL information. Which isn't being shared. There was MORE information. I at least knew her well enough to know that... THIS IS NOT WHAT SHE WOULD HAVE WANTED.

you condoning harassment and saying 'well its what she deserves' because she harassed others is not the proper OR HEALTHY way. It doesn't make you any better.

go seek PROFESSIONAL help. touch grass. Take a break. It's the holidays and you have not just picked at old wounds but you have completely tore them apart.

you are creating your own personal vendetta and hate campaign on somebody you WERENT REALLY EVEN CLOSE WITH ( which you even fully admit to -screenshots below ).

You are NOT educating people. you are straight up harassing people.

you are not any better.

Stop it Drae, you're not doing anybody any favors.

See the line: "We may not have been close.."

my rage stems from the fact that people continue putting fandom wank, discourse, and anti/purity culture bullshit in the main tags. I don't follow the Leon Kennedy and Res Evil tags so I can read posts about how much you hate me for writing dead dove. "fandom wank" and "fandom discourse" exist as tags FOR A REASON

Also, not for nothing--dead dove content is in the canon of Resident Evil. So if you're anti-dead dove you're a hypocrite for being in the fandom and enjoying the source material. Just FYI.

So, we've been thinking about this a lot, and debating whether or not to post about it, but fuck it, we're gonna say it.

If someone tells us they experience something, we're going to believe them. Who the fuck are we to tell them what they do or don't, can or can't experience. We're not them, we don't know their mind, their feelings, their personal experiences.

[This is primarily about syscourse, in case that wasn't obvious, but applies to a shite load of other things that are commonly targets of discourse.]

If someone tells us, "I am a system, my system formed without/ unrelated to trauma," or "My orientation is complex, these labels may contradict each-other, but they best describe my experience," or "There's a disconnect between what I am according to my brain and what I am according to society / 'real life,'" or-- Alright pal, thanks for sharing, we believe you.

Obviously, there's certain things that we have problems with, there's some whacky-ass shit that people will claim that we just can't get behind. However, we can disagree with how they label it, how they go about presenting it to the world, without claiming that they couldn't possibly ever experience that thing, because how the fuck do we know what's going on with them? We don't.

Existence is fucking weird, brains and minds are fucking weird, so obviously there's going to be people who are just fucking weird - hey, we're definitely pretty fucking weird. So when others tell us about their fucking weirdness, we're gonna believe them. Simple as that.

[For the love of puppies, please don't go in the comments/reblogs going "what about XYZ," or stir shit. This is just our personal opinion, so take that with a grain of salt and leave us alone, yeah?]

I once saw a post talking about DNIs on fanfic, and I'm pretty sure that fanfic DNIs originate from people getting harassed over the ships in their fics, which has led to people saying if you ship X (say it's a popular ship for the fandom that you don't ship) then DNI; which, based on my interpretation of the meaning of DNI, means "Don't talk about X on my fic" because of the amount of people who will harass creators over ships

Let me bring up Fl*werfell. For those in the Undertale AU fandom, you may have heard of it. You may think of it as the Fr*ns (au and ship censored so as to not show up when people are looking for content on those things). That's not true. The original FF never had Fr*ns. The original creator got harassed over this, and people would even re-upload the whole au but edited to be Fr*ns, which also led to them being harassed for "having" that ship in it.

Tl;dr: DNIs on fanfic most likely began as a way to mitigate harassment over ships. And if you don't like, don't read and just leave.

In the storm around HWL, I just want to say that, in twenty years, when people talk about the 2020s as a moment in gaming, as a time in the history of the medium, nobody will talk about that game. It is the most generic, paint-by-numbers action RPG you could possibly make, and from everything I’ve heard it, it doesn’t even run well. The only thing selling it is nostalgia.

People will remember the cultural firestorm around it, they’ll remember all the people who couldn’t put their money where their mouth is when it comes to transphobia, and they’ll remember what JKR does with all these new thousands of dollars to further her hateful ideas. But they won’t remember the actual game, except for the hurtful ideas that fueled it.

Bigots, generally speaking, make bad creatives, because they are so fundamentally opposed to new ideas. We will persist beyond them. Our art, art that celebrates everything humanity has to offer, will outlast theirs. Support trans rights, fight antisemitism, and don’t buy this goddamn game.

[alcego]

frankly, i think it's hilarious when people in a "fucked up story" fandom get mad when people in their fandom enjoy fucked up stories and characters. what did you expect?

[ihhfhonao3]

So tired of anti vs pro discourse and wishing that antishippers weren’t always so fucking awful but also knowing damn well that I’m an anti by definition because proships make me uncomfy for personal reasons and if I was to call myself proship that would be factually incorrect
