#so many memes already

[talaricula]

Things I've seen tumblr memeing about James Somerton doing à la "How did no one see how bigoted he was!" as if those things haven't been a significant part of tumblr culture for over a decade :

Presenting untrue and bordering on conspiratorial versions of (queer or otherwise marginalised) history without any sources

Completely disregarding and disrespecting any expertise on socio-cultural topics/humanities and distrusting academics and historians (incl. acting as if no academics or historians could be queer or marginalised)

Downplaying the role misogyny played in the historical oppression of queer women and concluding that queer men must have been more oppressed than queer women

Bi women are, at best, not as queer as "real" queer ppl, and at worst, simply equivalent to straight women

Despite nominal trans inclusivity, transmasculine ppl are functionally women when convenient (combined with the above, bi transmascs are functionally straight women)

Despite nominal trans inclusivity (bis), shamelessly attacking, threatening and actively endangering any trans woman who questions them or smth they find important (often by unfairly presenting her as violent or as a threat)

Having absolutely fucking wild and reductive takes about ace ppl, the oppression they face and their place in the queer community

Stating that marriage equality is an assimilationist fight while completely ignoring its direct roots in the horrifying consequences of the AIDS crisis for partners of ppl who died of AIDS

Praising western media creators from the past for queer coding even under censure and in the same breath condemning current non western media creators for being homophobic bc their representation isn't explicit enough

Blaming China for all existing homophobic censoring in western media

Assuming all queer media would be better told by western creators and by western standards

Only out queer ppl get to tell queer stories

Heavily criticising almost all queer media created by women or ppl they see as such (see above points about trans ppl) or involving/starring a significant amount of women for any perceived or real amount of "problematicness", but fawning over and praising and negating criticism of queer media created by and starring mostly or even functionally exclusively men (even when it could be argued that, you know, not involving/seriously sidelining women is a pretty clear example of misogyny which should probably be considered "problematic")

And I'm probably forgetting stuff or there's stuff I have internalised myself and don't recognise as an issue

Like idk but I feel like the takeaway from Hbomberguy and Toddintheshadow's videos should maybe be "be aware of such patterns in your communities bc they definitely exist" and not "this guy is uniquely awful" and I feel like a lot of the discussion I've seen surrounding this has been severely failing at that. Most ppl who've spent any significant amount of time on tumblr prob either have internalised at least one of those thought patterns, have had to de-internalise them, or have had to be extremely vigilant to not internalise them (which is done by, you know, seeking out other sources, which also seemed like an important takeaway from the videos)

#Also I'm saying this as someone who actually watched quite a few of Somerton's videos #And noticed those patterns and stopped watching bc I recognised them from here #and had already learned to unlearn them after being so exposed to them here #And tbh I think anyone who hasn't had the luck or made the conscious choice to seek out ppl who pushed against those narratives #Would absolutely have fallen for this man's bullshit. Like let's not kid ourselves we see takes like this every day on this hellsite #2014 me would have. For sure. #This is next to the plagiarism issue which as Harris points out is an Internet wide issue and this includes tumblr #James Somerton #hbomberguy #todd in the shadows #This brought to you by a conversation with my wife yesterday #So many ppl on here don't deserve to meme or be this self absolvingly critical of this man #The call is coming from inside the house #The man has a tumblr it would legit not surprise me if some of the things he supposedly made up himself he did actually get from somewhere #And that somewhere was a tumblr post

i have DeArrow which changes youtube thumbnails to random screenshots and user-chosen titles and it makes watchers announcement even funnier

#gabbering #watcher #i'm gonna restrict myself to making one more post on this subject and if i see any really funny memes abt it #but so many ppl have talked abt this already i dont just wanna pile on

Cass' confusion the first time she punches a meta and they are unaffected is so fucking cute. She has no idea what's going on.

Bruce takes so many L's in Cass' batgirl run for his behavior but him immediately jumping in and getting overprotective once he realizes Cass is facing something new is precious. Especially since he was threatening people with her all of one panel before this.

From Batgirl (2000) Issue 3.

#I'm allowed to badly edit in memes into my comic book panels as a treat #wanna make a post just of the actual cute Bruce&Cass moments from this run #cause there are already so many bad!dad Bruce panels #I am in the mood for some wholesome content #tbh even snips of the wholesome stuff would probably be less wholesome in context but we take what we can get #cass cain #cassandra cain #dc comics #batgirl #comic panels #batman #batgirl (2000) #original post

# mood 1 + mood 2 (basically)

#only friends #only friends the series #onlyfriendsedit #*gifs #namchueam #lookjun bhasidi #she's my savior <3 #i mean. for coming to me with these meme worthy reactions :') #i'd say noone of these friends are good. none. except for april and p'yo of course. for now. #not gonna lie though. watching these fucked up friends i'm having my kind of good time. the show is just as good as any other fictions. #however. it's watching the fandom that gives me a headache. i don't want it to ruin my experience in enjoying the show. #so. i'm sorry if i don't interact as much as i originally would love to with anything under the tags. #really. it's so weird that i got agitated way more by the fandom discourses or comments than the actual show itself. #it was the show that supposed to surprise me. not how a group of viewers policing reactions by others. #afterall. this is a show with so many layers that many already pointed out. so it's normal to have layers of interpretation as well.

#Kirby #Kirby memes #Bandana Waddle Dee #Bandana Dee #Parasol Waddle Dee #Sailor Waddle Dee #Sailor Dee #rip Sailor Dee not appearing in a game since 2011 #I think my one complaint about Kirby as a series is that characters outside of the main four are often forgotten about or never used again #like I feel like every game will introduce a new character and then we maybe see them just one or two more times before they disappear #and don’t get me wrong I do enjoy seeing new characters introduced in new games #but I do wish that the characters that already exist would be acknowledged more or given more depth and development #because I feel like there’s a lot of potential there like we could see so many more stories or games involving them #I feel like there’s a lot of potential for more Magolor Epilogue type of stuff with other characters #I think it’d be nice to see what all the former antagonists have been up to after the end of their games #I think that Star Allies kind of does this a little bit but just on a surface level not more in depth #this is why I like exploring this stuff in my fanart lmao like if HAL/Nintendo won’t do it I’ll do it myself

[pickypickypeak]

#ok maybe I’m obsessed lol #LISTEN no hate really #I’ll always push people to pursue their inspiration and create something #wether it’s fanfiction or fanart #REALLY #I’ve seen some AMAZING work #when it’s done out of positive creativity and not pure hate for a literal cartoon #I just find it funny that people are still starting wish rewrites #when there are so many already and they all start from the same main point #which is. bring starboy back and make him fall in love with asha #which is totally fine but #I mean maybe it’s time to start calling them fanfiction at this point? there’s nothing wrong with that? #instead of staying on this line of. movie terrible so we’re fixing it since we’re all such better storytellers than the idiots at wdas #I swear if I see another person going #I hAvE nOt SeEn WiSh BuT fRoM wHaT I'vE ReAd iT lOoKs bAD!! sO I'm GoNnA FiX iT!!! #I will riot #how can you tell it’s bad if you have not seen it???? #ok enough #sorry for the vent #I lowkey wanted to make the she’s so pretentious meme but it was too mean? #wish #disney #wish 2023

#WHY ARE THERE SO MANY OF THEM ALL OF A SUDDEN #i beg of you if you are not a bot change your pfp and or reblog something i am getting swarmed here #also is that an outdated meme already i dont know i have no sense time and just slept for like 17 hours on and off within the last 24 hours

[schlawa]

It’s a (translated) quote from my favourite bands live banter, where the drummer asked if anyone still needs a guitarist and I just thought the vibe fits them so well

#one piece #monkey d. luffy #trafalgar law #trafalgar d water law #luffy #its not meant to be lawlu but go ahead and tag it as such if you like #i never understood the hate about tagging posts after a ship #so #lawlu #i guess sdfgdfg #my art #op #why does law wear his wano clothes but luffy doesnt? #well great that you didnt ask #i do not know how to draw an arm at an angle like this so i took any opportunity to not draw it #shitpost #after an actual artwork i of course had to go on hiatus just to come back with a meme i started a year ago #i had so many personal problems going on in my family which resulted in me having so much paperwork to do #i still work on it for almost 3 months already #anyway dont mind me here in the tags #i have some more wips going on for a while now #some are half finished so i might come around to upload more this year
