i know i'm late to the game but i'm scrolling through the toltzmann tag and there's absolutely no holtzbert!!!! i ship like every possible pairing in ghostbusters but if i go in a specific tag i don't wanna see a different ship in there so i seriously appreciate this blog's efforts so much!!!! bless your soul for doing this

I mean, this blog is barely active anymore cos the fandom has definitely quietened down; but we’re stickin’ around to keep the tags neat and orderly.

Also, can I just give a massive thanks to all the Holtzbert shippers who have kept things in the relevant tags, after the huge shitstorm that started this whole blog in the first place; it’s only been made possible that we’re dormant because of the community coming together as a whole and being respectful!

Go us!

Apparently we’re not over this stuff. Come on, y’all, it has been a year!

If the characters you’re tagging aren’t relevant (so they’re there, but you’re using them as props) don’t. fucking. tag. them.

FRIENDLY REMINDER

IF THEY’RE NOT PART OF THE SHIP, DON’T TAG THEM. THANK YOU!

PLEASE DON’T TAG ABBY WHEN SHE’S AN ACCESSORY FOR YOUR SHIP THAT DOESNT INVOLVE HER THANK U!

Ok, so I don’t know if this is Paul Feig’s directing, Melissa McCarthy’s acting/shipping holtzbert or if it was just an accident but I needed this

@mrsgilbertholtzmann and @holtzbertlightspecial, I invite you, without further ado, to read the following;

http://sn0wghost.tumblr.com/post/157619819123/right-im-not-saying-this-is-equatable-at-all-and

Just do me a favour. Give it a glance, at the very least. And perhaps, if you see fit; take some time to reflect. If you come away from it feeling the exact same, then so be it. But it will not hurt you one single bit to do some self-evaluation.

No one is outright attacking, or even accusing, you of being racist or fatphobic. What they’re asking of you is that you take a more than superficial look at why you completely erase Abby and Patty out of any potentially romantic relationship. (The bs of off-screen romance with straight boys doesn’t count, sorry.)

I’m not going to even bother getting into the bullshit that is “I HC someone who literally makes a noise/face of disgust at Chris Hemsworth who everyone else is drooling over as straight and not gay or at the very least aro/ace” because oh boy, your words are dripping in subconscious bias; and it’s buried so fucking deep you don’t even realise!

Please, do us all a favour, and, to quote the King of Pop, start with the (wo)man in the mirror.

One of the more ridiculous things I’ve seen is that Holtzbert and it’s shippers is/are rooted in racism and fatphobia. Like, no? For me personally going into the movie, I saw the spark between Holtz and Erin. Was it the focus of the movie? Nope. Not at all. But I saw it and I dunno. One day I found some cute Holtzbert fanart and I thought about how cute they’d be together. So that’s how I became a Holtzbert shipper.

Fatphobia? Nope. Nothing wrong with Erin or Patty or Holtz being shipped with Abby, certainly not for her weight. There’s way more important things to talk about in the movie, and they never once make any sort of crack or reference or mention of her weight.

Racism? Nope. That’s probably the most offensive belief, that not shipping Holtz or whoever with Patty means we’re being racist.

You know, as much shit as the movie got, to the point that we lost money and 90% likely won’t get a sequel, you’d think the fandom of the movie and the shippers would be friendlier to each other. And especially not hurl insults like assuming other shippers are racist because they don’t ship a character with Patty.

As for fan fic cliches and inaccuracies, yeah, I see those a lot. I personally try to write around them. I write Holtz as plenty self conscious and socially awkward a lot of the time. I write Patty as the cool-headed walking fortune cookie of wisdom. I write Abby as the understanding, smart and honest team mom. And I write Erin as slowly coming out of her shell, and that even Holtz’s love can’t fix it overnight. Fan fic cliches are something to avoid for sure.

I dunno. Yeesh. As much hate as the movie got, I’d figure the fandom would be more inclusive than this. And once again, shipping Holtzbert doesn’t automatically make you fatphobic or racist. That kind of thinking is what hurt the movie’s performance. There’s nothing wrong with shipping whoever. It’s not even a matter of agreeing with the ship. I don’t ship Polybusters, but i don’t think something is wrong with it.

It doesn’t matter which ship is the most popular either. It just happened to be Holtzbert and could easily have been one of the other ships. Geez.

I also love the “Holtzb*rt” spelling thing going around, that’s trying to equate it to a slur or whatever. Wow. You call Holtzbert shippers racist and prejudiced but you’re trying to make up a slur? Yikes. Grow up, people. Ship who you want to ship, stop ragging people who ship something different. The amount of hate is really terrible and heartbreaking to see considering how much irrational hate the movie as a whole got.

I have no problems with any of the ships from the movie. I just happen to have chosen Holtzbert as my ship. Not a big deal.

Patty Tolan and Abby Yates Appreciation Weeks!

Are you sick of seeing irrelevant or horrifying posts that completely erase two of our favorite ladies? Have you had to unfollow your favorite character’s tag because it was too disheartening? Are you fed up with Patty and Abby getting treated like $h*t by fandom? THEN THIS EVENT IS FOR YOU!

When: February 25 - March 11

What: post headcanons, meta, gifsets, photosets, fan art, fan fic, fan vids, fan mixes, fic recs, favorite quotes, favorite moments, just shout I LOVE PATTY TOLAN or I LOVE ABBY YATES from your rooftop – share whatever you want! The goal is simply to show our ladies some love <3

Who: YOU!!! and the character appreciation blogs @actualsunshinepattytolan and @abbygreates

Participation is obviously not mandatory. Participation everyday is not mandatory. Just post whatever you can, whenever you can. If you want to start early? Great! If you want to post only once for each character? Cool! You want to make five million posts every day for the rest of your life? FANTASTIC! Do whatever you want!

Afraid you can’t prepare anything in time? Fear not! The Abby and Patty blogs won’t be going away. They will continue to reblog your character adoration whenever you’re able to post. :)

Feel free to mention either @abbygreates or @actualsunshinepattytolan in your post. There’s also the Ghostbusters Appreciation Week tag that we’ll be checking, as well as braving the general Abby and Patty tags to track down stray posts. All* appreciation posts will be queued up and reblogged by the promoters.

* we say all but really we mean “all the posts we manage to find AND don’t perpetuate harmful stereotypes or tropes”. What counts as a harmful stereotype will be left up to the judgement of the promoters, but basically anything you’ve seen chattered about by Those People isn’t allowed. That’s the kind of stuff we’re trying to escape from thanks.

Need some inspiration? Consider these themes:

canon moment

a childhood event

favorite ship

family backstory

song you associate with them

future headcanon

your most burning question about this character

what do they have set as their phone’s background and lockscreen?

what’s something this character has changed their mind on?

thing about this character that makes you cry

who is this character’s celebrity crush?

Now let’s make the Patty and Abby tags actually focused on Patty and Abby again! \0/

And here I was, about to making a “closing” comment on the NYT blog, because all things mistagged were gone and done and dusted and sorted. Damn, holtzbertlightspecial, you had to go and besmerch what had become clean.

I don’t feel like it needs much more clarification than @kirst003 already laid down. But you acted like a right numpty, HLS. Nice.
