fandom spaces are so rude!!!

okay this is not dnp related but guys tell me what you think.

so parallel to my phannie life im obsessed with this serbian singer. im not from serbia, nor do i have any ties to serbia, so i feel pretty alone in this bc i don't know the language and no one knows about this singer where im from.

so i decided to make a fanpage on instagram so that i can participate in her fandom for fun. and i translate everything with google translate. and it's been fun so far. like i make edits and memes about her and people like it (so far).

yesterday my father called me and said i should come visit him (he's in montenegro right now). at the same time, my favourite singer announced a concert in montenegro! so i was like oh my god what a coinidence, maybe i should go at stay with my father and go see my favourite singer live! but like it's problematic bc i don't have the best relationship with him and now that im 25 he won't shut up about how i should get married and have kids.

and i was thinking like haha funny story, im gonna post about it on my fan account and do a poll like "should i go to the concert?". like it's all heeheehaha just like fun fandom things, right?

and then this pretty big fan account (the singer follows them!) messages me like "oh my god you're 25 and you're asking strangers on the internet for advice... 🙄". and i was like okay yeah fair, but also this is all for fun, it's not that deep.

(this fan account's shtick is that he takes the singer's old photos and like airbrushes her face and edits the photos, it's a bit weird but whatever.)

so i was like "it's not that deep bro, im just having fun". and he was like "i don't think it's fun to post your personal life online, you should go see a therapist". likeeee wtf

and so i was like "bro are you the fanpage police or what? let people have fun".

and he was like "i feel sorry for people who have no moral compass, you tell your psychiatrist about your problems".

so i was like "i feel sorry for people who get angry over random women on the internet. bestie go meditate, drink some tea, smoke a joint".

and he was like "i already do that. you should pay a psychiatrist".

and i was like "wanna sponsor me"

and he said that he's straight....? idk if google translate fucked up but i don't understna what he means. (and he wrote str8 like with the number eight.) like straight as in heterosexual, or straight as in "normal", or what? anyway i told him "peace be with you". and like yeah. how rude!!!!

i found out that im working on the day of the concert anyway so i can't go. but like i wasn't even sharing my """personal life""". i was just like lol should i go see my sexist father just to see my idol live? like that's not even "asking strangers for advice", that's just interacting with other people in the fandom. like. and i have 15 followers bro!

#like okay i know that im 25 and maybe being in a fandom at 25 is like not “mature” or whatever #mind you this dude is like 40 so what's he doing airbrushing instagram photos?#but we all understand that this is just for entertainment right???#like i have a degree i have a job #this is just for fun #being in a fandom is not that deep

F I S S I O N - Why the hell do you hurt yourself for this?

#wake up babe new tenvishund art just dropped #very very rusty but inspired by a recent album and general life experiences/interraction #im coming to the end of my degree and trying to find A Real Proper Grown Up Job #and the industry I am in can be really sneaky - you think you've found something good but if you speak to the right people #then the truth comes out #which is frustrating #but here i am alive and well and probably doing better than i ever have been before #even if sometimes i do want to tear my guts out and die like a dog #such is life i guess all about balance #i also wanted to colour the guts red but i cant work this new fancy gimp system so i gave up #enjoy!! thank you for viewing!

I wish ‘talks too much about gardening and milkweed but not in an eloquent way and has blogs but not in an eloquent way’ was a job I could be paid money for

Job hunting sucks ass thank you for coming to my tedtalk

#out of queue #ani rambles #may delete later #i want a job to have until I land animation work but my parents dont want me to do retail #but everything else is like ‘do you know chainsaw? do you have years of prior experience #do you know euthanasia? do you have a scientific degree? prior leadership experience?#oh by the way low wage. also fuck off.’

hanamaki's easily in my hq top 5 characters solely because in a post-timeskip world where everyone seems to have figured out their life at the ripe age of 24, hanamaki is brave enough to be UNEMPLOYED

#legendddddddddd #i love hq i love the timeskip but WHY does everyone have a degree and a JOB and they LOVE their job hhelloooooooooooo #with people like kuroo it was a given but why the hell is tanaka married and has his own store... he is 23.... he should be at the club

i hate how commodity and capitalism has ruined so much storytelling . i hate how sequels and prequels and whatever else all ring like merch sales; i hate that i as an author have to include any social media following i have as a marketable trait; i hate that everything feels like a xerox of a copy of a dream of a memory.

i hate that my nostalgia has been turned into profit. i hate that companies fear consumer backlash so no real commentary may be made; i hate that companies care more about quantity over quality. i hate that so many artists and creators are being overworked to the point of complete collapse rather than being allowed to tell the story their way. i hate that every point of representation has to be fought for. i hate it i want us all to go back to living in a cave .

when you sit with friends over a bonfire and the night is getting long and people start telling this slow, almost hypnotic story - in this quiet voice, like they don't expect you to listen while they say the most fucked up shit you've ever heard - that is storytelling. who cares if the punchline is car hand hook door. storytelling has always been about community, about us all sitting in the dark, choosing to fill the silence while the last embers are dying. we forgot that storytelling is spellwork. hallucinating together, our breaths held, waiting for the ending we already knew was coming.

#this is specifically due to my rage and undying hatred of megacorporation #disney.#and specifically bc i think there COULD have been a really good series of new #dinosaur island t rex movies #if they had just fucking gone the distance #stopped with the fucking bad CGI #and made the whole thing about late-stage capitalism #do you wanna know what would ACTUALLY sell and work on the big screen more than a trex screaming in front of a volcano #(u absolute jerkweeds)?#so they've rebuilt the island and the park. but the narrative is 100%#that nobody wants to fucking work there and it feels AT BEST cult-like and insular. nobody is paid well for this #at EVERY possible place they are cutting corners. the dinosaurs might have higher walls #but the handlers are paid 5.34 an hour due to island laws. the corporation has RFID tags in their costumes which they are forced to wear #the employees are not allowed to drink water in 120 degree heat bc it would be upsetting to guests #u know real things i experienced working for disney #(but it was 8.90)#anyway it turns out the park CEO knew the risks and just didnt care bc bottom line BAYBEE.#it would be so much more sobering and fucking GOOD if it was like. scientists being like ''i am an environmental scientist''#''after the epa was slashed this is literally the only job i could find. i literally HAD to take it or i couldn't feed my family.''#''i hate what i do. i am disgusted by it. i literally CANNOT STOP because the company also charges us 400 dollars a week to live here''#the dinosaurs escape EARLY in my movie. like minute 45. and then... 1 week later #the park reopens.#half the staff are missing. they're just fucking gone. it doesn't matter tho the company tells everyone to work 2x as hard #that those people weren't loyal enough or they are tragic heroes bc they died doing what they love #and the movie isn't like ''wow dinosaurs scary!!!'' it's...#that in a global fucking pandemic disney kept sacrificing employees.#but it'll be disguised bc the pandemic will be dinosaurs.#this my beloved is what we call an ALLEGORY but unfortunately certain companies have never heard of them #allegories require critical thinking and that doesn't test well with audiences

#how long ago did i watch pacific rim? i feel like it might have been last year but i finally drew this lmao #sometimes it just takes a while. newt specifically gets under my skin tho bc i think his research interests r kinda similar to mine #at least in a broad sense. but im dealing with cyanobacteria which is less exciting to most ppl lol but any fanfic i read thats like: newt #has 6 phds im like fucking what? what r they in? they have to be literature based right?! when would u have time to independently design.#carry out. write and defend for 6 independent projects in different topics by his age?#what as waste of time. i say as a person who would happily fuck around and collect degrees without ever having to get a real job #idk characters i relate to make me a little unhinged bc i do not like to relate to characters lol #pacific rim #herman gottlieb #newt geiszler #newton geiszler #tw blood #tw gore #also i agree with herman abt the numbers quote. physics is like literally understanding the fabric of the universe so like yeah #also i cant draw hermann and i cant see his face without thinking of owen from torchwood who i hated lol #pacrim

so how do you cope with the realization that we're all going to have 40 years of full-time work at jobs that don't fucking matter. living for the weekends where you sleep one day and dissociate the other and then it's back to work on monday. and if you're lucky you retire just in time to start deteriorating physically and mentally. how do you live with that

#im graduating with a master's degree and honestly a job as like. fruit picker or some shit appeals to me on a weird level #at least with physical jobs you can point at something and say i did that! and now a new thing exists!#anyway I'm dealing so so well with exiting the safety of academia #im having. a week. sorry folks

In workshops, Waa told Krist and Gawin to think of Kawi as a cat and Pisaeng as the cat's human, and what ensued onscreen is why Waasuthep Ketpetch is a hero and deserves ten thousand awards for Be My Favorite.

I'm rewatching all the Marvel Defenders shows on Netflix and as much as I mock the MCU now, I need non-Marvel fans to understand that I was and still am a fan of "Daredevil fighting the gentrifying assshole who bought out the police force because ACAB both as a lawyer and vigilante of the community" and "Jessica Jones fighting the man who mind controlled her into doing unspeakable things and forming a community of fellow survivors and allies while dealing with PTSD in a range of both healthy and unhealthy ways" Marvel. God I love these idiots they carried so hard

#vio.txt #mcu #marvel #jessica jones #daredevil #also the two of them induced so much bi panic in me. also gender envy. jessica jones is one of the few women i get gender envy fron #the iron fist and luke cage shows were...more mid but still leagues above current marvel shows #like. yes be anti-mcu but these were masterpieces #and yes this is why i was so pissed about them putting daredevil in she hulk and trying to make him iron man 2.0 #like! yes hes suave and charming but thats bc its his lawyer job!! he works in a law firm he and his friends started to serve his community #he is NOT 'i am rich and better than u' charming. he is 'i learned how to talk fancy for my degree and i have empathy' charming #and not bringing the other guys over either???? bruhhh #marvel really cancelled the best things they did on the screen #matt murdock my original red and black round glasses wearing sadboy what did they do to you #also!! can i mention that these shows had such better representation than nowadays marvel #murdock's actor doing extensive research on blind motility for the role #jessica and trish's friendship and how trish immediately believes jess about kilgrave #the whole!!! unique community feel of harlem and in luke's bar #hogarth whos both jessica's employer and foggy's boss in later seasons being a lesbian and having Real Marriage Issues #and also being a conplex and kinda shitty person #iron fist was....eh but that's why it was the worst one lmao #OH YEAH HOW COULD I FORGET MY GIRL KAREN #karen page getting a whole storyline in s1 about her dealing w ptsd and then getting fleshed out backstory and her own adventures #like ok it was kinda weird in daredevil that she dated like every guy bc she was the female lead 💀#but even then foggy and matt and her figuring their shit out like adults. like they shot their shots and it didnt pan out. still besties th #disney would never allow such good writing in current times #but a boy can wish
