okay but looking at that one guy in that sexy tumblr man mutual post has reminded me that i’m actually so glad i don’t rlly consume children’s media anymore. not that those shows can’t be interesting but the older i get the more i just...feel weird abt adults in children’s spaces. like the height of my steven universe phase was when i was like 14. straight up a baby. i had mutuals who were in their 20s. THATS WEIRD! LIKE OBJECTIVELY A LITTLE STRANGE!

and i know i have friends/mutuals rn who are around 15-17 but i make it Very Clear from the get-go that i will not be treating them the same as my other adult friends. like i Will put up boundaries SIMPLY BECAUSE I DON’T WANT CHILDREN TO BE WORRYING ABOUT MY ADULT LIFE AND ADULT BUSINESS. NOT EVEN BECAUSE IT’S INAPPROPRIATE RLLY ITS BC WHAT 14 YR OLD WANTS TO HEAR ABOUT THE HORRORS OF TAXES AND HEALTH INSURANCE AND PAYING BILLS ON TIME????

#ignorance cloud on #idk i think abt this a lot actually #taz is kind of a weird spot bc its inaproppriate humor but a mostly teen-ish audience #but like. its Made for adults? so u just have to be careful in there #but i couldnt be someone rn whos like. in the owl house fandom or some shit. i'd feel weird in there #i know im not that old but i wanna be different than the people who i hung around when i was young and feeling lost #like i wanna help my younger friends w like. getting their lives together and not stressing the small stuff #also i think one of the greatest discoveries ive made is just not being in a fandom and just consuming content idly #like yallre allowed to just. hang around. watch something and maybe not talk abt it #thats me w the walten files like i dont talk abt it often but i see a lot of tiktoks abt it and im trying to get into the lore #but im not gonna suddenly make that my personality or anything #'but michelle isnt ur url and icon a grad ref--' shut up thats different #i dont think people see fitzroythecreator and assume my entirely personality is fitzroy #i just like the url and i like my icon #i think also creating ur own content that Isnt related to a fandom is very freeing #like just getting together w friends and making ur own worlds that u contribute to is so fun!!!#WAYYYYY more engaging than typical fandom behavior #this also isnt me hating on fandoms i just want younger kids to kno that like. u can be chill abt stuff #tumblr is very in its own ass abt shit but u dont have to be if u dont wanna!!!#but if u do?? thats fine too!!!#ur young!! care abt those cartoons a little while longer #bc eventually u have to care abt other shit that Sucks #anyways that was ur michelle rant for the day
