#the fandom life chose me

[musicprincess1990]

Fandom is a community, not a corporation.

I want that on a t-shirt.👏👏👏

Said this to a dear and much-loved friend today, but I think maybe we all might need to see it:

Long-fic is not the rent you pay to be a part of fandom.

Fic, full-stop, is not the rent you pay to be a part of fandom.

Art is not the rent you pay to be a part of fandom.

Constantly creating is not the rent you pay to be a part of fandom.

Fandom is a community, not a corporation, your productivity is not a payment you have to make to be here.

I think the deleted scene is simply showing you how much Buck is cared for by the people he chose to be in his life, and from someone who craved that care and attention for so long I just think that's neat that Buck has so many people now that do, and idk I'm just happy for him

Forever: Oh... Philza... Philza senpai... 🥹

I feel like everyone's already seen Phil's POV of this but Forever's reaction was frickin adorable, man's having so much fun on this server. It's so cute seeing all these different creators interacting and becoming friends and bonding over the goofiest things :')

Top 5 characters

The rule is to make a poll with my top 5 all-time favorite characters and tag 5 people to do the same.

Thanks @sky-kenobye for the tag!

This was hard, in part because when I had to think about my top 5 characters, I suddenly didn't even know what a character was

Anyway, here's the result of my long and hard panicky thinking, after giving myself the rule of one (1) character per fandom, which is awful, I need you to know that, I feel like I have to justify why I chose this one and not the other (heads or tails. next question.)

Tagging @trinitrine, @redfoxline @miyamorana @tissusetbulles and @msephy (and anyone who would like to feel guilty all day for chosing, love you guys)

My Emotional Breakdown is over people somehow not understanding that I want them to stop talking about what happened to me as if they have any right to talk about the situation.

I was looking through my notes for Good Omens fanfiction, and realized almost every damn story includes Crowley having a baby.

There's the one where Heaven and Hell decide to use an angel baby carried by a demon as a diplomatic tool, leading into Crowley being protected by Michael, and them falling in love.

There's the one where she leaves her baby with Anathema and disappears, which triggers all the following events - from the search, to Aziraphale's trial, and everything else.

There's the one where she has to supply the new Antichrist, which leads to her and Lucifer falling in love, and her being crowned the Queen of Hell. (Well, this one is really two stories set in different timelines, in the second one the "baby" is like 27)

In the one inspired by a dream, she does have a baby eventually, but that's far from the worst thing that happens to her. Gabriel's treatment of her after is... How the Hell will I write this damn thing if I can't even think about it.

There's no baby in the one where she gets tortured with diluted holy water.

I see I have no storyline with male Crowley just yet... Fine, that's not true. I do have some thoughts for Crowley x Fem!Lucifer... It could include a new Antichrist, too. And, Crowley wouldn't be the pregnant one for once. But, dealing with pregnant Lucifer would probably be even scarier.

I have nearly 50 fanfics between my two AO3 pseuds, and the first comment I’ve gotten on any of them in more than 5 months is some fuckwit complaining that I used ‘creator chose not to use archive warnings’ on This Isn’t A Ghost Story instead of tagging for the specific trauma at the center of the mystery. the trauma that, had I tagged for it, would have ruined the entire mystery, rather than letting the reader piece it together for themself.

you wanna know why fandom is dying? this fucking bullshit is why fandom is dying.

fuck that person, fuck all the abusers of fandom who read thousands and thousands of words of free fanfic and even can’t be bothered to leave a single comment saying they liked it, and fuck the toxic cesspool the Doctor Who fandom has become.

fuck all of it. I’m fucking done.

My orientation is on Thursday and I am. feeling a lot. I can’t really do much more to prepare for it, but trying to distract myself is not working, so. I’ll just be feeling off for a few days

[henrigailshipper9803]

one of the most dangerous lies I tell myself is "just one more fic..."
