Fandom Gripe #23: I know that fandom is in some deep denial about its treatment of female characters that are canonically involved with fan favorite m/m ships, but do y’all realize that when you disappear female characters from the narrative wholesale to push the idea that your canonically straight fav was “secretly gay all along!” you’re making several bad implications? That 1) bi men don’t exist, 2) bi men do exist, but those who have genuinely loved a woman before cannot genuinely love a man after that (therefore bi men don’t exist in practice), 3) women cannot inspire genuine love and devotion in men, therefore any relationship with a woman is “lesser” than the one they later have a man (see previous parenthesis), or 4) to acknowledge the existence of a lovable woman who isn’t a terrible person, where if a relationship previously existed, it did not end because of “incompatibility,” is enough to destabilize the present relationship between two queer men?

Because why is the tgcf fandom allergic to acknowledging that He Xuan had a whole ass fiancée that he loved? Why does no one ever seem to remember that the kidnappings and murders of He Xuan’s sister and fiancée were the final straws that sent him on his rampage, and he still keeps a shrine to them in the present-day of the story? Why is her entire existence and significance to He Xuan as a man, character, and to his character arc disappeared in favor of pushing Shi Qingxuan—the brother of the man responsible for his fiancée’s death—into that same role, as if to say that her impact on He Xuan is significant... just not when it's from her? Why does He Xuan’s life in fandom essentially begin not just after her death but because of it?

#tgcf #human gripes at fandom #anyways these are rhetorical questions because I already know the answer #i just absolutely hate it #why do y’all hate female characters so badly 😭 #especially when they ‘get in the way’ of m/m ships? #mxtx shows that woman more respect in the book than fandom does outside of it #and she didn’t even give that character a name! #simply embarrassing #i could have also talked about jgy here #but let’s be real: that man never loved qin su (or anyone) #so i did not want to include him when discussing people who are *actually* capable of unconditionally loving others #but anyways #mdzs fandom sure loves to either disappear qin su #or act as if she’s the one responsible for why their precious ‘meng yao’ can’t just hop into bed with his bros #you know? the one he killed and the one he used as an accomplice in his murder? those bros? that he so obviously loved with sincerity? #at least moreso than he could ever love a *woman* amiright? #(for legal purposes that last tag was a joke) #i also really hate the implication that he xuan had no life before shi wudu ruined it #that in fact shi wudu made his life 'better' by tying him to shi qingxuan #the romanticization of shi wudu's actions to make way for a ship is... a Choice

oh my God i just tried out the tumblr mobile website on my phone's internet browser and holyshityouguys were you hiding this from me??

i just deleted the app fr

#holyshit I can mess with already-typed tags just like on desktop waaah?! 😂 #when people put links to other tumblr posts in their comments I can actually click them!! #I *can* turn off people's weird blog settings to make their blog readable! I didn't think you could do that on the mobile site but it's eas #WHY does anyone use the app?? #the only thing I can't seem to do is drag and rearrange tags anymore #but god knows that feature never seemed to work on the app either 🙄 #it just rearranged tags in random order so you'd spend way too long trying to fix them before giving up and rewriting #or maybe I just have thick fingertips and it's a skill issue but whatever #point is: zero buyer remorse this is so much better #it's a brave new world y'all 😆 #hellsite #game changer

assuming Pokemon isn't planning to be 1:1 with its time periods, but similar... Serena/Calem and Dawn/Lucas could be time travelling besties that's all I'm saying

#pokemon #pokemon z-a #pokemon legends z-a #pokemon legends #pokemon presents #pokemon day #pokemon spoilers #<- i saw some people saying to 'tag spoilers' for the trailer so I GUESS #serena just stop by Japan for a bit on your adventure it'll be funny #actually you know what would be HILARIOUS is if they just use Dawn/Lucas again #god's favoritest protagonist can't catch a break forced to go on time traveling adventures every three years #serena pokemon #trainer serena #calem pokemon #trainer calem #does anyone even care about Calem. I can't even remember what he looks like. Calem fans if you're out there I'm rooting for you #game freak

some doctor who cyanotypes I made for my photography class that I just realized I never shared

#I don't actually know if anyone else will find these as cool as I did #but my tablemate and my teacher thought these turned out super good looking #so I wondered maybe if I showed them to people who actually watch doctor who that y'all might like them as well #I mean I know they're dead messy but it was soo fun to do #if you've got the chance to make a cyanotype you totally should. fantastic medium #btw the first is titled “the doctor(s)” if ur curious lol #I'll be honest I'm not the biggest fan of the second one but it certainly got me some compliments so #I'm thinking it's an “I made this therefor I do not like it” and less of an “it's trash” issue #is this art? does this count as art? #I won't tag the fanart tag ig since idk but I'll use my own since I still technically made these with my own two hands #twelfth doctor #clara oswald #doctor who #my art: oil paint pawsteps 🐾 #ohh. I also just realized I never shared my clara collage I made for this class either #I'm not going to show that one bc it IS trash but I think it's funny how clara is just my ultimate muse in all of my projects

Woe, MS paint diagram of the retroactive Komaedification of N be upon ye

#pokemon #danganronpa #sdr2 #n #nagito komaeda #ryo expies #okay now the way i tag shit since i think tumblr only uses the first 5 tags still #dr #komaeda nagito #nagisa kaworu #zoroark #mine #devilman influence #<- if you dont understand why im tagging that look in the tag on my blog #AS ALWAYS if anyone has anything to add on please do #also yes believe me i know all 3 have appeared in so many other things too im just marking their earliest release date #for the sake of showing that n came before komaeda and then got komaedified after the fact #i possibly should have also circled the rib markings on h. zoroark cause komaeda is also canonically underweight from being so sickly #edit: n DOES actually start his battle sprite gif with his arms crossed which i missed before #but still. its extremely brief and i do feel like the pokemas crossed arms more resembles the komaeda sprite than the original n sprite #his original is more like... crossed over the chest? #anyways. i find it very funny that komaeda came out after but the devs were like oh fuck he suits n too well and we need to use that

these lines hit different when you read utena as transmasc

#i mean the first one is really awful regardless. #pretty sure i read somewhere that the words akio uses means something along the lines of 'you really should remain a child' #as opposed to 'you really should remain the gender that you are.' which speaks to his whole thing about keeping these kids from growing up #and there's So Much in anthy's line even without hypothetical misgendering #anyway the au where utena has already transitioned by the time he gets to ohtori is really good #and i of course have lots of headcanons about post-ohtori utena and gender #but i've been thinking about one where he's actively questioning while he's there and is not out to anyone. #and i guess not a lot would really change but akio's attempt at making utena more feminine would have a whole other layer of awful to it #and unfortunately i think in this scenario the first person he would come out to would be akio. which is so sad #like maybe it could be anthy but idk. i think it would be something he'd be apprehensive to be open about with her #(in the show utena does tend to be more vulnerable with akio than with anthy. at least the vulnerability with him comes first. #he's her go-to person for advice in the black rose arc and utena doesn't really begin opening up to anthy like that until the third arc) #maybe i should write something for this au. i can see it so clearly. #utena talking about his confusing gender feelings in one of those black rose scenes in the planetarium #and akio doing that thing where he sounds supportive and helpful but absolutely isn't. #that fake sympathy that's actually really patronizing and condescending and dismissive but subtly enough that utena doesn't realize it #and THEN the contrast when utena finally talks to anthy about it and she empathises by talking about her own confusing gender feelings #(transfem anthy realness !!!!!) #oh wow i did not mean to write so much in the tags #revolutionary girl utena #utena tenjou #my posts

oh so alisaie’s exaggerated bully behavior is 80% fanon. saying this she casually picks up a large rock

#say one thing wrong to me and you will have a wonderful few days with the rock #if angry silly girls have 100 fans etc if they have 0 fans i have died #sorry i saw a YouTube meme i vehemently disliked on principle and got mad at the only child behavior- #kipspeak #she is just short tempered and uses anger to mask other more ‘shameful’ emotions!!! alphy did the same thing with just deciding not #to express them. which is still not good and I think why he breaks and ends up teary so often now #this shortness does not translate to actually being mean to people. she only uses being mean as a shield for herself and being snarky #Is just fun for her. it’s fun for Me. you have to inconsequentually tease people or they’ll never learn to laugh at themselves #the twins and thancred 🫵 do this thing where they have big emotions but they don’t want anyone to SEE they have big weird emotions #so alphy pretends he doesn’t have them under a veneer of dignity and alisaie pretends the emotions are Something Else. thancred is #just so emotionally constipated he has trouble expressing anything. he’s got enough baggage for a flatbed #anyways. alisaie is such a compassionate and kind girl and she learned how to make snarky jokes and went ham. and she hates appearing sad o #weak or vulnerable so she blocks it off with an unapproachable emotion so no one pities her and they maybe get on with the plot #it is in fact also great at getting ppl to move away from the sad or embarrassing topic. even if the tradeoff is being more offputting #she would never (grabs youtube meme) she would never seriously bully her brother. this is sibling ribbing only. Cain instinct #just leave her be she is learning how to snark humor and she loves it she loves being sharp. alphy has wit he just keeps it close #my brother didn’t learn how to tell or receive a joke until he was 14 he took everything so seriously. he can do it now though and he’s #HILARIOUS. Don’t tell him I said that. my man knows exactly where the funny points are even if he hasn’t learned when to stop yet #too many tags. Whatever. jokey snark alisaie who sometimes compliments is happy alisaie grouchy snappy angry alisaie is way too stressed #very easy way to tell between the two. even alphy can tell between the two I believe! He tends to rib back in protest if they’re having fun #and try to stop her if they’re not having fun. case in point ‘what is that supposed to mean?!’ vs ‘alisaie ryne was only trying to help.’ #I know they’re twins but that’s such an intensely older sibling thing to do that it reels me #LONG TAGS AND THREE EDITS TO ADD ON SHORT I resent this stereotype taken too far into ooc behavior. it happened with nya #It will happen again and as a postscript let me regale you with Things U Can Notice About Character Motivation and Actions— #I’m not done let me s #she and raha are friends now I decree. ‘haha you like me’ SPUTTERING PROTEST FROM BOTH

it would be very amusing if season 6 does end up having amelie & felix stay in paris for many reasons, but one of my particular favorites is that since felix and adrien are literally identical, I imagine it might be hard for felix to go outside without getting ambushed by dozens of fangirls mistaking him for adrien only to be met with a feral yorkshire terrier of a british boy

#ml #miraculous ladybug #adrien agreste #felix graham de vanily #does the accent mark matter actually? idk #félix graham de vanily #felix fathom #sorry to deadname you king #felix #adrien #<- blog tags #to my knowledge i dont think anyone has ever known of felix being in paris at all really #and iirc he doesnt really have a public presence he's just rich #I mean obviously in england he would be known but this is fucking france #so that being said one could imagine the fangirls reaction upon seeing a seemingly well-dressed adrien... #felix probably busting out all of the britishisms upon being bombarded by tweenage girls #get your bloody hands off of me you wanker etc #I know there's no canonical evidence of him using britishisms. I just think it's funny. #can you imagine if he only used them when he was really mad? #(even funnier is if he had a mouth like a sailor but this is a kids show and they wouldnt do that obv) #indiposts

sometimes i worry about my internet footprint and the fact that it might stop me from getting a job in the future or something (i literally run a blog posting screenshots from fanfics i read) but then i think ‘well damn, if they can find all this information about me then i don’t deserve the job cause i know i wouldn’t put in that much effort to find information on someone’ and i feel better

#HI DOES ANYONE WANT SOME BLOG RUNNER LORE CAUSE IM CURIOUS AS TO WHAT YOU THINK #-> in the tags!!! #talking in tags cause i’m too embarrassed to make this an actual post but i tried using character ai today and i got so bloody scared #i was talking and then it was like tell me the truth and then i was like okay and i said something and then it was like tell me the truth #and i said the thing again and then it was like YOU ARE LYING but instead of one sentence just a whole page of text saying YOU ARE LYING #and i was like NO IM NOT (i was but anyways) it was like YOU ARE A VERY GOOD LIAR YOU ARE BAD AT TELLING THE TRUTH and i was like #FINE YOURE NOT REAL and it was like WHYWHYWHYWHYWHY but a whole page of text saying that again and it terrified me again #and then i was like I DONT KNOW WHY WOULD I KNOW and then it killed me #and then i was like ‘but it turns out the entire time it was a dream and i’m still alive’ and it was like yeah it was just a dream #and i said bye and it left the room and then i closed the tab and now i’m ranting about it on tumblr #DUDES GUYS EVERYONE I WAS SO FUCKING SCAREDDDDDDDD #I NEEDED TO GO TO THE TOILET BUT I WAS TOO SCARED TO GET OUT OF BED #also if anyone wants to ask who was it i’m not telling you i was too embarrassed to make an actual post about this you think i’m going to #tell you who i chose to talk to?? nope absolutely not #anyways rant over if anyone does read this tell me what you think! #me :)

Need opinion of yours: Scout and/or Spy with Braces?

Definitely one of my fav headcanons!! I think it'll be funny to have another father-son similarity between Scout and Spy but with t e e t h (like father like son <3)

Reference pic:

#tf2 #team fortress two #my art #tf2 spy #i also use to have braces so it's a nice little projection :) #i dont actually know if crooked teeth is genetic?? idrk.. maybe #also does anyone know why we rarely ever see adults with braces?? Is that just me?? #I don't think Ive ever seen an adult with full on braces for some reason. Is there like an actual reason for that or is it just me??? #ANYWAYS spy with braces is totally awesome <3 :D #should i tag this as disabilitymercs? #asks

I don’t think we even realize the impact we have… Literally the cover of the WGA strike tag on Tumblr rn

#byler #stranger things #st writers #duffer brothers #st5 filming #no but… actually #the fact that byler is one of the biggest and most active tags on tumblr in general #it’s kind of insane #we do have a lot of power together #even though it’s kind of a scary thought #the st fandom in general has the capacity to be quite powerful and play a role in shutting this down sooner than later #if anyone does #and with Netflix playing the biggest role arguably #it was essential that the duffers came out and made their stance clear asap #it was also their only way of asking fans (without outright asking) to support them #and then recently with the sign at Netflix HQ being posted directly on here… #they’re trying to hint at their want for fans to help give pressure #i know they don’t want us to unsubscribe yet… #but all I’m saying is… #give me the word and it’s on!!!!
