EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP AND READ THIS.
THE CURRENT VOTE COUNT IS NOT THE FINAL RESULT.
IT WILL TAKE SEVERAL DAYS TO COUNT ALL OF THE VOTES AND DETERMINE WHO WINS THE ELECTION (POSSIBLY MORE IF A RECOUNT IS NECESSARY).
IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT THE FINAL RESULTS WILL NOT LOOK LIKE THE INITIAL RESULTS.
STOP DOOMPOSTING AND LEARN HOW THIS SHIT WORKS.

Hey guys, just a reminder to really really REALLY start to download your fics from ao3
If you don't want to do it yourselves I have a link in my pinned post where you can give me fics to download and also access the fics that are downloaded. Right now it is organized just by author, that might change as time goes on, it depends.
I will start checking the form more often for requests
At some point in the future I will also start downloading them onto an empty flashdrive I have.

Unpopular opinion, but I really do not see Dany as this "oh so tragic" and "oh so full of trauma" character. She has bad things happen to her like every other ASOIAF character, but she isn't really super traumatized or unable to deal with what happens in her life, and the tone of her story isn't really one of tragedy: on the contrary, her story is full of her overcoming hardships. It's full of triumphs. Even the low point she hits at the end of ADWD is just setting up her journey to finally crush the slavers and become the Stallion who Mounts the World. And then when she goes to Westeros, she will be one of the people to defeat the Others.
I find it a little bit annoying when I see people reading her character purely through the lens of "oh she suffered to much, she was raped by her husband, she was abused by her brother, she doesn't have a home, she is so tragic, etc" (I'm not saying people can't discuss these topics, by the way, I'm just saying that it annoys me when this is the ONLY thing people talk about when it comes to Dany). First, because this isn't the majority of her story, this is mostly part of her early story or backstory, and the main part of her story are the things she does after that, her triumphs and hardships trying to lead her people, fight a war, fight the status quo, and so on. It's a little annoying to see a character who has such a great complex political and magical storyline, a great adventure, all be reduced to "she is just an abused girl who suffered", with all other aspects of her story being ignored. But most importantly, I think this reading of Dany as this tragic character, by Dany stans and Dany haters alike, gives fuel to a bunch of other annoying readings of her character: the neutrals use the "oh so tragic" narrative to argue that her story has to end with her dying and she has nothing else to contribute to the main story other than sacrificing herself and be a tragic hero. Meanwhile, the antis use the "oh so tragic" narrative to claim that they sympathize with Dany, but her trauma is going to make her crazy, paranoid, a villain, etc. Or, when they don't say that her trauma is going to make her a villain, they claim that she was always a villain and use her "trauma" to claim that they sympathize with her and that her "trauma" makes her such a complex villain.

Tumblr media
[ID: Screenshot of a chat that says "just leave my queen alone, she's already suffered enough. She wanted a life with her malewife murder monk pilot mechanic racer and you should respect her for that!]
It's Padmé defending's hours for me
I have been seeing more negative (with very weird connotations, tbh) posts about Padmé on my dash lately, and while I'm a firm believer of the "scroll past it" rule, it really irks me a lot because MOST of these takes sound a bit mysoginistic to me and also (to me) shows a lack of trying to understand her as a character, not in a "you don't get her" way, but in a "you don't even try to understand the character and her context in the damn story just because you wanna sound holy than thou" way.
I'm all for accepting takes about Padmé's flaws or having a slightly more privileged/closed view (and that makes sense, she's aristocracy) but these people are SO WEIRD whenever they wanna talk about her 🤨
I'll forever mad that George eliminated SO MANY scenes with Padmé in the movies, but I feel like even if we had those scenes, people's complaints would be exactly the same.
But also i think half of the time people fail at understanding Padmé is because they're also failing to understand Anakin's as a character, idk

the sheer number of people on this website who are the nicest kindest individuals ever until they find out you disagree with them on something morally important wherupon they turn exceedingly vitriolic is staggering tbh.

Let me say right now. I know a lot of people are dealing with some pretty heavy emotions in response to recent news. And that is why we need to flood fandom spaces!
We need fanart, we need fics, we need headcanon posts, analysis posts, breakdowns, rants, AUs, OCs, inserts, edits! A lot of people use fandom spaces for comfort and community, so we need to make these spaces as welcoming and lively as possible right now. Fandom has always been a large form of escapism for a lot of people, and I fear people need that more than ever.
Share your thoughts and feelings, share your ideas, share your opinions, people want and need to see that just because things look low right now, our creativity will not faulter, fandom has always been a safe space for our minds to escape to, and right now people need to feel that.
Keep fandom spaces alive!
Keep fandom spaces positive!
And most importantly,
Keep fandom spaces fun for all!
We need to keep our communities alive!

Does anyone know at what point was it agreed in the fandom that Cassidy is asian?
Like every other fan art I see, has them with thin eyes and round face.
And more often than not it’s clearly not because of the artists style (although sometimes that’s the case) because they have CC or someone else with them and they have different facial features.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here are some examples^
And don’t get me wrong, I love the representation/idea/interpretation, but it’s such a wide spread hc that I’m curious if there’s any reason for it?
(These are artists for bottom right @donitkitt and top right @blackliiight I couldn’t find artist of the other two fanarts, if you know them please tag them)

I think one of the things I hate about TikTok is that there’s really no room for patience or nuance on that app. What I mean is, you can only fit in so many sentences of text on your 20 second clip BEFORE they start to clash with your aesthetically-driven video that people actually need to be able to look at.
You can barely have a well thought out conversation in the comments or type out a detailed reply before it cuts you off after like, idk 50 characters or something. It’s possibly the worst place to try to have a conversation about sensitive topics like humans rights, consent, racism or anti censorship or ANYTHING before it just gets way too simplified and polarizing. No wonder everything there turns into a hot mess drama in like five minutes.
I love TikTok for things like comedy, makeup tutorials and cosplay and shit so I definitely think there could be a place for TikTok to exist but it’s definitely NOT a good space to talk about high stakes topics!

why are you, as an adult in 2024, still hung up on reylo. why are you still mocking the shippers. why do you believe yourself to be superior only because you dislike a stupid ship from a fucking space fairytale. girl (gnc) get a grip
#it's ridiculous. this ship is... stupidly cliché. like if you know fandoms at all#you could easily guess why people would be into it. hello?? have you tried to watch tfa without your hate-on-kyle-ron goggles?#did you watch their scenes together? you don't have to like something to recognize the hints#hell. at the time i didn't really like jonerys but i realized they were going to be a thing when i read agot in 2011#like folks. it's been nearly TEN LONG YEARS. let it go. LET IT FUCKING GOOOO#and for the lucy/cooper shippers out there who think reylos are (again) delusional when they compare the two ships:#no. *you* are being delusional only because you think reylo is unsexy and uncool (which is your right to think btw. obv)#if you can't see why someone would like both of these pairings for similar reasons... idk what to say honestly#people compared it to hannigram... honestly. again i see why they would appeal to anyone who's into both ships#i really do. but... unpopular opinion (since i'm more of a clannibal fan than i could ever be of reylo):#they are more similar to reylo than will/hannibal. there i said it#i'm not talking about the writing (admittedly the quality of it was questionable). i'm talking about tropes#never mind that imo the ghoul is more akin to vader than kylo but whatever#hannibal is an unapologetic kind of villain. he's not gonna have a redemption arc and that's okay#cooper is an antivillain who used to be a good man and became a disfigured cruel bastard. a parody of himself#lucy is him. him before the bombs dropped before he discovered the person he trusted the most wanted to commit genocide#nice. moral. polite. infused with the Good Old American Values™. he's basically her dark side#all of this is very hannigram/clannibal. i'm not denying it at all#but what'll likely happen is that lucy's actions will have a positive influence on the ghoul and remind him of what it means to be a man#and that's way more reylo-like. sorry.#beauty&thebeast/villain with some hidden good in him+morally righteous heroine/enemies to lovers etc.#i mean. hello??..... having said that. i'm not so much of a reylo shipper anymore and tbh never was. i really liked it at the time#but i was never fond of the st era. my fav characters are vader and leia and revan from the old eu. just saying#*and* it's also not impossible lucy gets darker with the ghoul as her traveling companion. in fact i wouldn't dislike it at all#if done well i mean#but i would still like for people to be intellectually honest and less puerile. god knows i have my notps#but i really don't give a fuck about the shippers. good for them i guess? i have better taste lmao but that's heavily subjective#val rambles in the tags#val speaks#txt

Are most Danny Phantom fans ace or are most ace people Danny Phantom fans. Idk. What I do know. Is that you can tell, regardless of site, that a fic is gonna be Really Good, if the author is a danny phantom fan or if there's danny phantom fans in the comments. I've learnt to recognise the ao3 icons of miscellaneous dp accounts there and u know what, we have excellent taste.

i am revoking any hate statements i have said against ororon and chasca. while i still think their designs are kinda ass, the fandom hating them and not giving the CHARACTER a chance has pissed me off.
i genuinely like chasca. she has a good personality and an interesting backstory from what we know. and ororon was supposedly threatened into working with the fatui. i like seeing a playable character betray their nation, its very refreshing.
