Imagine if you were a gay or bi man who tried a certain firefighter show because of all the attention it was getting for one of its mains having a later in life bi awakening.....and between seasons you ventured into its fandom in search of material to tide you over til the next one. And you're greeted by a deluge of posts and fics that are just cheerfully homophobic towards one half of the newly out bi character's canon relationship on the basis of 'well he's not the RIGHT gay guy' and pushing the idea that actually its fine to cheat on him because Reasons and he's sexually predacious based on......behind the scenes implications people have divined like they're reading fucking tea leaves.
But don't get it twisted....this fandom, like all fandoms, really cares about representation!
Sorry not sorry, but we really need to kill this idea that fandoms are welcoming and inviting and inherently progressive when they're frequently insular and reductive as fuck. Every single fandom I've been in has had major trends of people doubling down on their own headcanons and fanon interpretations of the characters and willfully enacting trends aimed at running off people who like the 'wrong' characters (usually characters marginalized along one or multiple axes), like the characters in the 'wrong ways' or other bullshit.
Scott is a Bad Friend fics overtaking Teen Wolf fandom was not incidental, it was a FEATURE of the fandom, because the vast majority of that fandom did not want to share its space with anyone who had the nerve to like its main character. Survivors complaining about or criticizing the prevalance of rape fics in a certain fandom has in my experience always led to a reactionary UPTICK in those fics, with gems like 'this character can, will, must be raped' in the tags making it crystal clear that some of these fics exist because how fucking DARE anyone try and push forth a narrative not agreed upon by Fandom Main.
I could cite examples for so many other fandoms, with the commonalities always being that vast majorities in these fandoms are explicitly reacting defensively to being asked to be more mindful of fandom trends revolving around or exacerbating racism, homophobia, transphobia, rape or abuse apologia, ableism, etc....
With the most prolific fucking rallying cry across countless fandoms being "No the fuck we will NOT be doing that," because lolololol.....
Fandom is an inherently progressive space, didn't you hear?
#anyway this has been on my mind in general for a few weeks now#and its more about fandoms just being fandoms#and like....what if they werent though#these patterns migrate from one to another as fans migrate from fandom to fandom bringing their bullshit with them#like do people never get tired of just trying to call DIBS and claim fandoms for themselves while shutting out anyone else#who might have a lot to fucking offer if you werent being so gd intent on staking a claim instead of sharing perspectives#and exploring new possibilities?#and I know not everyone links certain problems with racist homophobic and other behaviors to my own issues with dark fic and rape and#abuse apologia but I do inherently see it as sharing large portions of venn diagrams even though I do not consider being a survivor to be#something that demarcates privilege in the way that axes of identity do#as its situationally based rather than inherently identity based#but the way it can affect and shape large parts of peoples' identities begets commonalities#but my point is just.....a big part of why I so often lump it in is specifically because of how people react to these things or#defend against criticism across the board#like most people know my stance on censorship and how my blood boils when its people who are throwing accusations of#censorship at those raising criticisms....#but the point is just.....think about what censorship actually IS in all practical senses of the word#its about shutting down conversations. limiting the flow of information the sharing of perspectives and experiences#THATS WHAT MAKES IT BAD#now......what about criticism inherently lends itself to any of those things if you DONT accept as a foregone conclusion that criticism#is only ever offered up in bad faith and meant as a silencing tactic#instead of just a request or offered avenue of ways for things to be done better rather than not at all?#who is ACTUALLY out here trying to shut down convos and limit possibilities?#is it really the people being critical of fandom behaviors and trends?#or the ones doubling down at the first hint of any criticism and aggressively ramping up how frequently and visibly they engage in#the criticized behaviors in efforts to drive people away or as a silencing tactic of their own?#just saying

I hope you’re all well ❤️
#feels very weird to be back on here but hello!#given recent events it had me reminiscing on when I first became a fan of harry’s and how tumblr was such a powerful resource#that chronicled and really tracked the rise and fall of 1d#I was never that emotionally invested in the band outside of harry#but liam’s death has made me particularly emotional and contemplative#about the cult of celebrity and the way we consume these people’s lives#not very profound or new thoughts I imagine but something all the same#got me thinking of how much I used to love it here and the community around harry and his history#and how much that changed over the years and people migrated elsewhere or stopped being fans for reasons#so yeah. thought I’d pop by.#sending you all lots of love#i’m around on twitter if anyone needs anything#❤️❤️❤️

I think I figured out why "anti-zionism isn't antisemitism" bothers me so much for something I agree with.
Israeli Jews need a place to go. I feel like a lot of the anti-zionists sharing their opinions forget this fact. We can't just say, "You have to leave Israel, but you can't go anywhere else either." That's a recipe for a new Jewish genocide if I've ever heard one.
With the rise in hate for Israel, a part of Jewish history, and the rise in antisemitism in general, a lot of Jews don't feel safe in their neighborhoods. I've heard many talk about making Aliyah, aka moving to Israel, to be safer. Frankly, I don't feel safe. I live down the road from a place that was shot up less than a decade ago, and now antisemitism is rising.
There are anti-zionists trying to shut down Jewish run businesses. If they can't make their living when they live now, where do you think those businesses are gonna go? Many menorah lightings have been canceled. If they can't celebrate their religion safely, where do you think the Jews in those areas are gonna go?
To them, there's only one possible answer: Israel.
This is where zionism comes from. This is why people move to Israel.
If you're anti-zionist, the best thing you can do for Palestine is be kind to your Jewish neighbors. Make them feel safe and welcome. Because if they don't, they'll go someplace where they do feel safe and welcome: Israel.
#israel#zionism#anti zionism#antisemitism#judaism#palestine#liberal#be kind for goodness' sake#there's a long history of Jewish forced migrations including when they originally left Israel but that's another issue#i doubt i can convince any anti-zionists that forcing people out of there homes is bad at this point#but i'm hoping this post may change some people's behavior to the Jews in their lives

Every now and then, I think about The Simpsons RPC and how there's an occasionally a spike of Simpsons muses that inevitably crumbles away and leaves me waiting for the next short lived Simpsons RPC Renaissance
#ooc tag#《 maybe there's still active Simpsons RPers out there and I'm not looking hard enough 》#《 but I'm surprised there's not more of a consistent/active community 》#《 even if the newer seasons are contentious‚ I'd at least expect people to have enough nostalgia for the old seasons to go off of that 》#《 part of me has always wanted to see if i could find an rp partner who could make Homer endearing to me again 》#《 I've been soured on him as a character for so long that finding someone who could make him tolerable is like finding a unicorn 》#《 especially when it seems like no one is interested in writing as him to begin with 》#《 The Simpsons is a big Special Interest of mine 》#《 i had an entire Simpsons RP blog before I gave up and migrated the muses back onto here 》#《 i miss writing my Simpsons muses 》#《 if there's any canon muses that come most naturally to me‚ it'd probably be the Simpsons ones 》#《 that and my Stardew Valley muses 》#《 it's easier to get me to play video games bc that's actively engaging me 》#《 and SDV is a big comfort game for me 》#《 i swear I'll get around to answering some drafts that are in purgatory rn 》#《 some of the replies are mostly done but I've stalled on them for whatever reason 》#《 there's less pressure with my Simpsons muses bc the characters have changed so much that it doesn't feel like i could be ooc 》#《 unless i deliberately tried to make them unlike anything they've ever been like in canon 》#《 and even then‚ there's probably an episode where they acted like that 》

The amount of people that use A.I art in this fandom is actually insane. On both the pro and the anti parts. Like wdym the "official" art of rhysand is A.I?? Literally what?? And even tamlin art sometimes,and when you tell a bitch she's like "it's my page" Well you can shove that art right up your ass because you're supporting artist being out of JOBSSSS
Anywho support actual artist like
@thrumugnyr
@copypastus
@ladymidnight-goesforth
@works-of-heart (who was actually accused of using A.I art, this shows how damaging it is)
@dimalry
@ceoofyearning
@jmoonjones
@geniemillies (I just saw their tamlin art?? OH M GEE???)
(Give me more in cmmts bc I genuinely have the memory of a goldfish)
#acotar#rhysand#acotar fandom#cassian#literally most of the cassian art is generated#like i get it i wouldn’t draw him too but COME ON PEOPLE#“its my page i post whatever i want”#honey#im going to hold your hand with a napkin in-between when i say this#you have no talent...your only flex is being able to hit a generate button...you cannot draw a figure stick to save your life...#and most importantly#you look really stupid#the art looks so shit its actually funny#IT CANT EVEN PASS AS REAL ART#IT LOOKS LIKE FUCKING JEFFERY STAR#and you looked at it#saved it#thought “oh#that looks so pretty#the lobotomised equally stupid fans will LOVE THIS#sue me#cancel me#your as smart as a rock if you like ai art#you probably look like a bus driver#its giving jenifer coolidge#“ermmm ai art is actually so pretty#ermmm#nesta#the nesta ai art is probably the ugliest because they make my girl look like she has a migrated filler#she looks like she has a 5head

where the middle meets snippet
Llewellyn deleted the message without opening it- he’d learned extremely early on that mistake. And because it was sometime between ten am and one pm wherever in the world Dick Grayson currently resided, exceedingly busy getting shot at or blown up or learning the difference between mousse and hair gel, allergic to schedules and addicted to this one ritual, a second followed. Safety, if that could be measured in Llewellyn’s aching head, came with the second. Usually. Wells hadn’t spoken to Dick for more than a year after the last earnest attempt at sexting, but that didn’t actually mean something. Time and magic, soul bonds just a little different, when they had to stretch for what could be an endless eternity. Five years gone now, if he really tried a world away, there was still just a little color behind his eyes. Blue. The best childhood skies, the deadest dreams, the sea on the shore of his realest home: Dick Grayson, a jagged little piece of his soul burning so very goddamn bright. Llewellyn yanked the half crushed toggle back up the cord of his retrieved hat. Weighed amorphous guilt over real desire- the very best way to know if someone had managed to stab Dick lately was to look. He was significantly too good of a liar to let it on to anyone if he was really in trouble- had wholesale stopped asking sometime around acquiring a foul-mouthed brother to watch out for- but Wells had decades on him. He could tell. He wanted to know, if in equal measure to how much he wanted to keep countries and continents between them. He looked. Dick Grayson, unabashed against dark, cloudy sky. Bare shoulders filling a rainy window, tan despite the season. A casual wave, caught, a broken finger splinted. No other bandages, a near unmistakable bite mark bruised halfway up his neck, a smile that actually reached his eyes. “Fucking Christ,” Llewellyn sighed to the grass. It said nothing back.
#hello the concept has caught me like a bear trap#I'm becoming one with the forest floor#DIRTBAG ERA DICK GRAYSON BELOVED#Llewellyn forever cursed to meet the most important people to him when they're busy being insane gotham teenagers#the cost of immortality!#chekov's gun Jason Todd#Will Wells literally strangle Bruce?#honestly maybe#The thirst traps are a THEME#(and a love letter)#Literally this makes no sense without the context of two other weird lil aus babes#feel free to tune out until I can once more vibe with effloresce#Llewellyn turning up looking like hot ginger grim reaper#Dick full body tackling him: SOULMATE#Donna Roy et all: he's?? REAL?#migration patterns spin off#Dick Grayson is twenty two and a hot mess baby

while I'm kinda sad that we're not getting any more unhinged omegaverse lore lately, I also do love how Pit Babe decided to just put all of the insane alpha stuff into the first two episodes. they said we're going to open the first episode with a scene explaining that Babe needs to fuck because of his special alpha senses and then we're going to casually mention alpha menopause in episode two. yes, those are the first things you will be experiencing about this show. yes, it's going to be relatively normal after that.
they made sure to scare off everyone that wasn't the target audience and then they gave us all of the wholesome alpha x alpha content and you know what? I respect that.
#it's like the thai bl equivalent of the tumblr userbase posting ALL of the unhinged cringe content when the twitter people were migrating#pit babe#pit babe the series#straw's stray thoughts

Interesting that the # of licensed drivers in the US is decreasing
#not really ig bc urbanization is still a force#but it remains up in the air whether we're going to see improvements in public transportation over the next couple decades afaik#also i think a lot of the migration to cities rn is cities that have definitively poor public transportation e.g. houston#or my own beloved charlotte (not beloved)#from experience i know that it can actually be more difficult & less safe to navigate without a car in those places than in rural areas#(btw just looked it up and confirmed it is this sort of city that's seeing population growth)#(mostly)#soo back to why are licensed driver numbers dropping#i think i want to pin it on lack of resources?#plus this is mostly an issue among young adults many of whom weren't physically at school during the time when students take driving classes#this interests me bc people have always thought it was really weird i never learned to drive but i've noticed more and more ppl#especially young women#talking about not knowing how to drive

I'm a little out of the loop
why is there a twitter migration?
my understanding is some quackity fans on twitter have been really awful to other creators and fans because of the current admin issues, particularly the french (and baghera specifically) for speaking out on behalf of the admins as well as brazilian fans (since some brazilian admins came forward, and brazilian fans are supporting baghera and the rest of the french) once again. so some people are moving over, i think both fans being impacted by the harassment & xenophobia as well as quackity fans who don't want to be involved in treating people like that. i'm not super aware of the details myself so this is all i know
#asks#anons#usually when migrations happen only a small amount of people end up actually staying on here#because its hard to pick up how to use the site and qsmpblr is so eng-centric#but regardless i hope people feel welcome here and at least can get away from how insane twitter is

me realizing that I’m the tumblr middle child
#I wasn’t here when the deep magic was written but I am old enough to know the lore#I can’t say I’ve lived through every era but I can remember most of them#my blog isn’t ‘before 2014’ (at least this one isn’t) but it is before all the mass migrations#I was here before the mass migrations and watching the youngins come in#thinking ‘aw cute.. you got a lot to learn’#meanwhile there’s people on here who have years on me#g.txt

genuinely how rabid and actually verbally violent people are getting over body issues here on tumblr is a decent amount of why it continues to feel less like using here as its main social platform
#blocked a mutual this morning for personally attacking people wrt 'you skinny fuck' 'shut the fuck up twig'#body issues have gone from acknowledging the systemic violence skinny people can carry to it is okay to personally attack anyone over their#uncontrollable body traits. and to say it's weird to do so is an attack somehow#it saw some takes talking about how this really only got as rabid when the reddit migration happened and it's inclined to believe that.#we have gone backwards on body issues from both skinniness and fatness are uncontrollable and body positivity to it is personally yr fault#twitter has been its main niche for a bit now and while this issues crop up they have been NOWHERE near as rabid

still singing the old work songs or my life without molecules
clarice doesn't dream of labor either, just look at her dance
#bowls of cold pears#kitchen tables#filled with play#clarice#ruth#giggling and twirling#windowsills#boba#inspecting#everything#this is the weekend when the scattered migrate to past homes#finding out if return is possible#shock sends them out into the night for moments of chilly reflection#the newly lost#gathering in old haunts#places in the woods where kids drink#the basements of the long lost#surrounded by all the people they used to know#pandemic era#fourth autumn#and that would fix everything

JESUS BPP YOU WERE RIGHT ABT VP L BEING THE FALL GUY TO TARGET MHJ
https://x.com/tmikpop/status/1782735648610275429?s=46
But she’s been made the scapegoat and now people will think she made him say this and it won’t matter will it? I doubted it before but looking at everything coming out, it feels like someone has wanted MHJ out of Hybe for a long time. First they tried to use public opinion turning against her with the pedo scandal to do it, but it didn’t work because Hybe supported her. So now they are attacking her from within Hybe itself, using her caustic abrasive narssistic reputation to paint a character profile of a backstabbing greedy SM bitch who wants to pull another 50-50 even though MHJ herself has said in the wake of such glaring failures of both SM and 50-50, its stupid to think she’d attempt the same so soon. I work in investment banking and this feels like an inside hit job from everything I’ve seen. I don’t really like MHJ, I think she talks too much, but I can’t help but feel what we’re hearing from her is closer to the truth than what leaks from Hybe are saying. Somebody wants her gone.
It’s sad. If she leaves will there be any more top women at Hybe? Nicole left Hybe recently to go to Columbia after almost 7 years as A&R for BigHit, Adora left Hybe after almost 9 years to do her own solo career outside of Hybe. Sometimes i wonder why those women left after all the investment they made into the company, of its because they weren’t given more real support to advance to more independent or autonomous roles. All three women: Min Hee Jin, Adora, and Nicole were hired when Bang PD was in charge, but now that other men are calling shots at Hybe and it’s a more big chaebol corporate structure, all these women are either leaving or in the case of MHJ, attacked and left little choice but to leave.
i know this is giving conspiracy BPP, and i hate it. Maybe I’m projecting my own trauma from work into the situation. But this new VP L statement just triggered it for me. Something about this scandal smells very very wrong. I just hope the outcome for NewJeans is the best one.
***
Your link.
You’ve said a lot. All I’ll respond to is your first question: no it won’t matter what VP L says. It won’t matter unless the suits at HYBE want it to, and so far that looks unlikely.
#the point about key women migrating from Hybe when they should be advancing up the ladder is…#more people are noticing it#Bang PD is stupid to not realize what’s happening to his firm#in my opinion#min heejin#ador#Hybe#bang pd#NewJeans#kpop#Kpop industry#women in korea

Tried making a Desi OC in the Outsiders and immediately gave up because what the fuck are they doing in Tulsa anyways??
#their ass is either in south asia or uk they are not going to america til the 70s#it’d make more sense for them to migrate right after 1965 (when the Outsiders takes place)#that’s not ti say there weren’t any SA people#but I think it was super rare#my great aunts immigrated in the 80s#though an oc who’s family JUST moved to Tulsa….#there’s a thought….#the outsiders#evie rambles

What I hate about all this is I can't even find the content I want to see here anymore. I hate blocking people that aren't spam bots, but these Twitter stans have tried my patience. Like I'm cool with whatever interpretation, but when I come to a tag that is supposed to be curated with specific takes, that's what I want and expect to see. Not all this tsundere best grape jiujiu meow meow stuff. That's what the general tag is for.
Just because the word canon is in the tag name it doesn't make the take more valid lmao. It's a search category with a passive aggressive name because the people that made it were harassed out of the general tag. They deserved the snark for essentially being kicked out of the character tag. Plus it made it easier to search out novel specific posts, so to me it was a win/win
And I just shake my head at these people trying to "reclaim" the tag and telling the fans that made it to go make a new tag again. Hey Twitter stans, why don't you make your own tag called "actual canon Jiang Cheng" or whatever if it means that much to you. The tag name doesn't automatically make you any more correct or incorrect. Right now all you're doing is ruining people's ability to curate their content.
And really you make yourselves look like idiotic assholes who lack critical thinking skills and try to cover up that fact by harassing the people that inform you of the above, and enticing a mob mentally to try to get your way. (Which given the content of the source material...)
#canon jiang cheng#canon jc#i hate this Twitter migration#when i want tsundere grape i search general#when i want novel asshole i search here#but now that's being ruined by people who apparently think a tags name is tied to clout and validity#tags are categorical learn how to use them correctly or just go back to Twitter
