creating a crackship rare pair with your friends is great because then you already have a little club for your ship to brainrot over it and make content

Man, the Ortensia erasure in fanworks is sometimes baffling to me. She’s either dead, non-existent, or barely present in the story.

But I can kind of see why.

She’s not really fleshed out in cannon, so people won’t really implement her in stories that much because…well, how are they suppose to write her?

And I think we can all agree that it’s Disney’s fault for why that is.

I feel like if we got an Epic Mickey 3 or if the Oswald show wasn’t cancelled (or Disney actually USING THE CHARACTERS) then I genuinely do believe she would’ve been more fleshed out and even gotten some character development.

And it sucks to say it because I do love Ortensia and I do believe, despite very little we have of her, she does have a lot to offer as a character.

The Ropes Mansion (Allison’s House) - Built from 1727–1729. Y’all the stories this house holds 😳 It gave me the creeps. Salem is truly one of my favorite cities because you can deeply feel the history but goodness this place was something else.

I kinda announced this on my other blog, but I’m probably gonna be taking a brief step back from the fandom for a little while. In all honesty, the recent drama stressed me out to the point that it sent me spiraling into a really bad depressive episode, so I’m gonna take a step back to try and focus on other things for now. My mental health has been declining for weeks, and I also just lost my beloved oldest pet snake, so I’m going to take a while to try and prioritize getting better. I highly appreciate all the support on my content and the friends I’ve made here ❤️❤️

(And I will be back. My posting will just likely be very sporadic and sparse for a few weeks or so)

Cringe culture was just an excuse to bully neurodivergent kids. Think about it.

If you saw ANY cringe compilation at that time, you noticed a pattern. The original creators of the “cringe content” are young, “obsesses” over a fandom or character, and/or has trouble with certain social cues or standards.

Granted, did they do things that they weren’t supposed to do (nsfw, death threats, etc.)? YES! Most certainly. But why did people think it was a good idea to BULLY the person rather than explain to them why what they did or are doing was wrong?

I’m not saying to parent the person, just help push them in the right direction. And if they ended up ignoring you? Well…move on with your life. Block and report, if you wish, but there’s not much you can do.

Cringe culture was ESPECIALLY hard on older artists who didn’t fit their standard of “adult” or “professional artist” (even though people do it for FUN). Like, the ageism, man!

When I was younger, I would watch these cringe comps, treating it as what not to be as an artist. So, I would OBSESSIVELY try and perfect EVERYTHING. I would ridicule everything that wasn’t “perfect”. I was ashamed of my interests in fear of being bullied on the internet because it was my only escape from bullying in real life. Doing art and animations wasn’t fun anymore because I never allowed myself to improve or make a mistake.

Now that I’m an adult, I still have this compulsive need to perfect EVERYTHING. The moment I notice a mistake, it feels like the end of my “credibility” as an artist. I still scrutinize every little thing I do in fear of being made fun of. Even when I now know that my need for perfection is unhealthy.

Cringe culture RUINED any chance I had for improvement and creating because I was so scared of ending up in a fucking Youtube video spitting out slurs and unhelpful advice.

Whenever I think of cringe culture, I think of the ever present ableism of the internet. I think of this idea that kids have to act like adults the moment they leave the womb. That artists have to be perfect in their craft the moment they grab a pencil.

Cringe culture stunts a person’s ability to grow and improve due to the ever-present scrutiny of what their creations presents; whether they are affected or not. Even if you didn’t end up in those cringe comps, you still have that fear of ridicule.

Cringe culture has and will always DESTROY creativity and time for improvement. NOTHING will ever change my mind about that.

Cringe culture is DEAD, and should STAY DEAD!
