Ok, so, I've never watched any of the qsmp streams, but I read your rambling about it and read your one shots abt it, and uh do you have any advice on how to get into watching the streams? Like where do I start? How to catch up on missed lore? Stuff like that
well there are a lot of different POVs you can choose to catch up on and which one(s) you choose will definitely affect your understanding of what's going on. if you want to just catch up on the primary major story beats overall (federation lore, main egg lore) this channel on youtube has made 3 videos so far summarizing the lore as it goes on. I haven't watched these videos myself so I can't say how accurate they are or if they leave anything important out, but I've heard positive things!
now if you wanna catch up on more individual lore/character dynamics and all that then you're facing a bit more of a challenge. I believe quackity has most of his qsmp vods uploaded on his vod channel so you can definitely check those out for his story stuff. if you wanna understand my fics better wilbur has the smallest number of qsmp vods out of the cc's at least somewhat tied into the storyline so it shouldn't be too hard to catch up on his stuff. his vod from day 1 of the qsmp has one of the funniest moments from any wilbur stream ever (yes I am referring to that moment he was talking to max) but I don't think you need to watch a ton from any of the day 1 POV's after the first hour or so.
while phil is the pov I watch the most for qsmp, he's definitely less involved in the plot. but unlike what I keep seeing some people on twt and tumblr say, he DOES participate in the rp and does care about the lore. he just doesn't go out of his way to get super involved in it and likes making 4th wall breaking jokes. but yeah if you're looking for more lore based stuff, phil might not be a great pov to watch as your primary.
now bad is the english speaking cc most involved in the heavy federation lore stuff, so his vods are definitely good to check out if you're looking for an english speaking cc to watch. jaiden's also definitely tied into it and has her own very interesting plotline going on atm involving the federation, but she doesn't stream as often so there are a few more gaps with her compared to bad who's been daily streaming for months now.
now for the cc's who don't primarily speak english, it's definitely a bit more of a challenge to watch those POVs if you don't speak the cc's language, but when many cc's are in a group they'll usually switch to english since that's the most common language on the server. also there's the translator that most of them have up on their screen, but it's not super accurate and a lot of the time cc's forget to switch it between languages so I don't rely on it much. for lore stuff, cellbit is a great choice because he's been heavily involved in investigating the federation and solving puzzles and all that since he first got on the server. from the french side, baghera jumped into lore stuff pretty quickly too so I highly recommend her pov as well
again I don't know how detailed/what the summary videos do and don't include but if you see clips from certain streams on that summary video that look interesting, I definitely recommend going to the vod itself and watching at least a bit of it. the group dynamic between all the players on the island is so delightful to watch. so many great friendships have formed bc of this server and it's so much fun to watch them grow in real time.
more than anything though when you're trying to catch up, go through the tumblr tag! follow people who liveblog a lot! follow the updates accounts on twitter! I actually don't catch many streams, but I'm usually pretty up to date on the big plot stuff happening on the server at all times just from what I see on my dash. read posts and check out the tags to absorb info via dash osmosis. that's how I caught up on dsmp when I first got into it back in january 2021 lol
hope this helps :)

ah.... Long pilisophical post deleted..... I was getting somewhere and having a productive thought train.... Ahhh..... Maybe this is a message from god that I should sleep? Ah.... I think I had some good thoughts* tho so I'll bullet point them
*if anyone starts to study kinning/therapist/otherkin as linked SOLELY to mental illness and therefore making it "invalid" or "crazy" we need to arm ourselves. People need to be weird on the Internet ok
*I don't relate to the two psychotic friends I have... one of them uses the Internet a lot and has some unnoticed biases so that's a given. But the other one doesnt and has gone through a lot of trauma but still looks at me weird when I mention being Jesus IN PRIVACY WHEN WE R HASHING THINGS OUT mind you. He just kind of treats me like an anomaly?? :-( I'm actually very fucking tame$ and polite when it comes to talking about who I am so this upsets me. He might just be shitty but I'm nervous about joining a psychosis support group when I've been treated this way by close friends... Even in the fucking psych ward I was "weird" but those are notoriously cliquey and everyone there was from some form of negative twt
*new bullet point but idk if my friends r just ass but I worry I'm too delusional to fit in in psychosis circles... I miss max a lot... She has schizophrenia and was someone I actually felt comfortable bitching with. I hope she's okay :-(
*right but does anybody who is specifically psychotic (having other disorders as well is fine I don't think I know of anybody with only psychosis) feel this way or have their own takes??? Are psychosis and schizophrenia the same spectrum have I just been wrong this whole time??? I know they're close but what I read online tends to kind of just.... Not acknowledge schizophrenia? Like you will see ppl say it's valid hundreds of times but not actually group it with psychosis.... Am I not looking hard enough???? Where do I go for this-- reddit???
*I like to document my feelings and emotions on Tumblr especially since my memory issues get rid of anything that upsets me
$tame as in model student. Tamed animal. No matter how well composed I am or how much double bookkeeping I experience I am isolated and it sucks :-( I don't view myself as better for doing this, neurotypical people supposedly should but it doesn't fuckimg matter lol. I know this already of course, I just do it so I don't get my autonomy stripped from me

Fic Finder
~*~
1. Hello, I'm looking for a fic where wwx does not want to date guys who are not wealthy; lwj is his roomate and is in love with wwx but he thinks he doesn't have a chance because he is hiding he's very rich and fakes being almost poor (he even hides his credit card for emergencies). I think wwx also liked him but didn't want to try anything because he thinks lwj is poor. Thank for your help!
~*~
2. hello hello!! for FF, i swear ive saved this fic but i... cant find it. its a modern au. i remember everyone was famous, in one way or another. not a streamer au. LZ communicated only through emoji, borrowing LXC's account, except at the end only to reply to WY. he has a rly good relationship w JYL! she understands the emojispeak. im almost sure this is the same fic that has NMJ and JGY arguing about the whole thing online, something like a side commentary. definitely ao3, not a twt thread.

3. Hi there! I was wondering if you could find two fics for me please. A) One is where wwx isn’t allowed to go to a festival bc of punishment or smth but he creates a disguise as Jiang Feihua and goes with jc. Him and lwj are married in this fic and wwx joins a dancer group for like a minute too. B) The other is where wwx and lwj are both students at two different universities (wwx is an engineering student and lwj is a music student) and join together to create a project after being randomly assigned to each other. There’s a lot of zoom calls and strangers to friends to lovers. There’s also one scene where wwx crawls to lwj and is just being a little teasing gremlin. Thank you!!!

5. hi, i’m looking for a fic that’s actually based on the author’s tumblr posts! i remember that wangxian were in an arranged marriage, and that it was unrequited love. wwx loves lwj, but lwj doesn’t. i think lwj is a second prince and/or general and was deployed in war. wwx followed him to war much to lwj’s dismay (?). i hope you can help me find this, thank you! <3
hi, i was the one who submitted the previous ask about wangxian arranged marriage wherein general and/or prince lwj joined the war to avoid wwx but he was followed by wwx. i’m not sure if wwx was royalty or simply held in high esteem. i’m sorry that i’m sending another ask but i forgot to add that there’s no cultivation world in that au! so there’s not golden cores and whatnot! as i said, there was a whole dedicated tumblr posts about that au by the author. thanks!

6. Hi I was wondering if you know of this fic where wwx does a thing but time travels into to the past except he has his own body.

9. Hello there, terribly sorry to be a bother but my dumbass forgot to book mark a fic and I conveniently forgot the name. Just my luck. I was hoping you guys could find it for the next fic finder. 🙏🏻
All I remember is it was sort of a tgcf crossover; wangxian had successfully ascended. But people started mistaking them for the rabbit god Tu er shen (?). Also: Jin Ling prays to them to help Jiang Cheng find romance. Jiang Cheng ended up with Nie Huaisang and WWX, having discovered he can shapeshift now he’s a god and ends up pregnant (because of course he does). Also Hua Cheng makes a brief cameo to mildly threaten the heavenly officials.

10. Hello! For your next fic finder, I'm looking for a modern au where wwx was homeless for a while (but not during most/all of this fic)(possibly kicked out but i cant remember). Jz implies to lz that wwx turned to prostitution, but later wwx says he did construction. That's all I can remember clearly. Thank you and your followers for all your help!

11. Hiii!! So i read a fic where right after wwx died, they found this ball thing that enabled them to basically look into his memories of when he was still alive.

13. I’ve been looking for this fic I read in passing, which isn’t my normal taste or pairing, and still can’t find it even after limiting the search options. The pairing is JC/LWJ and happens during the 13 years WWX is dead and I only remember two specifically key events that happened in said story. One was that a demonic cultivator who was really young was taken into Lan custody but took a nail from the barn he was being held in to kill himself. The other was LWJ pushed JC hard enough to hit his head on the floor and daze him? The fic is definitely on Ao3. Any help would be nice~ @youkaimeimi

14. Hello! Thank you for all your hardwork, you're a blessing to this fandom ♥ For the next fic finder, i'm looking for a fic that was a fic set in CR era, and lwj is a vampire. Except he's a fruit bat vampire and only eats fruit. wwx finds out about his vampirism but he thinks he's the type that drinks blood? That's about all I remember. Thanks for your help!

16. Hi! I've just been going through your blog and thank you so much for all you do! I have been looking for this fic similar to one called decay that you had found for an ask before where LWJ plays for WWX to cleanse him except they are married I think? And WWX is hiding his pain and once LWJ discovers the truth he is angry and maybe goes into seclusion and moves out of their house. The discovery happens when WWX almost dies and everyone is like you would have made him your murderer?!?! @myblognewagain

17. Hi! Can you help me find a wangxian fic? I don’t remember much, but I think it’s post-canon. Wangxian are married(?), but it is mild emotional hurt/comfort from Wei Wuxian’s perspective because he sees Wanji with a Lan sect lady. He thinks Wanji might be interested in her because Wuxian thinks Wanji looks really good with the lady, a more fitting couple? He doesn’t say anything and just goes about business as usual, doing his sect duties, etc., because I think he just wants to enjoy stuff while he can(?). Later when Wanji finds out, he’s a bit heartbroken that Wuxian would do so much for someone he thinks is cheating on him. Wanji eventually introduces Wuxian to the Lan sect lady, and she’s like a SUPER elder who has really high cultivation which is why she looks so young. I think they were hanging out because she’s planning on ‘dying’ soon. That’s all I remember. Thank you!

18. Hello there! I’ve got a fic finder request because my dumbass forgot to bookmark a fic yet again :D. I have no idea what it’s called but it was cloud recesses study era, and the beginning stated out with wangxian f!ckin in the cold spring and wwx telling lwj that he didn’t need to take responsibility. They then had a lot of sex after that that led to a suspicious Jiang Cheng and a very stressed out Wen Ning at one point. They get caught at it in the library pavilion at the end (and traumatise lqr). I would be very thankful if you guys could find it (amazed y’all do this for free Ngl)

Number 20 was definitely a Twitter thread! I remember reading it on there but u can't remember who the author was! I'll try to look for it but hopefully knowing where its from will help narrow down the search!

In honor of Spotify Wrapped coming out *this week, I present to you: each MHA character's top played.
*This thread is reposted from twt and was originally posted in December of 2022
If this is your first time seeing this post, you can access the beginning of the thread here!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next: top heroes and some teachers 😊
(I won't be doing everyone, but if I miss someone you really like, comment, and I'll tell you what I think their song is. 🥰) 
All Might
Just a Quail by Louie Zong
He's immediately taken by it when Midoriya shows him (his mother played it for him when he was younger). Midoriya can't help but giggle. "You really like it?" And he does. In fact, he's listened to it everyday since. 
-
Endeavor
Glycerine by Bush
It's a great song. And something he can relate to. It's consoling as he reminisces on all the time that got away from him. And it's helpful during the healing process, too, with... well... Anyway. 
-
Hawks
Lithium by Nirvana
He started listening in hs and never went back. Yeah, he's a little traumatized and maybe ought to be medicated. But don't worry about it. 
-
Best Jeanist
Shuggie by Oxygen
Can you imagine Jeanist enjoying a cup of tea in his high rise apt w this song on when all of a sudden he's invaded, but he doesn't react, just calmly lifts one finger to gruesomely obliterate them? Bc me too. 
-
Edgeshot
One Tribe by KELTEK
This song is powerful, and I think it's a great mantra for an excellent warrior.
-
Mirko
Her by Megan Thee Stallion
Ladies and Gentlemen, HER❗ BECAUSE SHE IS AN ICON ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? LOOK AT HERRRRR 👑 
-
Eraserhead
Introverted by Elita
The first time Hizashi caught him listening to it, he teased him relentlessly bc how much more ✨dramatic✨ could he be??
But, like Shouta gives a shit. Bc objectively, it's a good song. 🙄 
-
Present Mic
Baddest Motherfucker in the Beehive by The Delta Riggs
This is a song that turns heads, and if Hizashi had a walk-up song, this would be it. It exudes confidence, one that he surely possesses. 
-
Midnight
Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls
First of all, yes, she does know how sexy she is. Do you? Second of all, ??? Who's trying to loosen up her buttons ???
(Also, she shares her playlists w Hizashi) 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This thread will be continued in a new post because Tumblr only allows me to link up to 10 songs in one post :)

ahahahhaha no don't worry, my signal was in fact acting up (i'm on an island) so i decided to send the ask again just in case when i still remembered what i wanted to say! (also totally knew what to expect before i clicked the link 😆)
i know some people hate mullets with passion but i had no idea people were so nasty? his mullet literally attracted me to the group lmao. despite being a fan for a long time i only joined atiny spaces at the beginning of 2020 so i had no clue.
miss tenelka, taemin is my ult as well so i know what you're talking about, i've been a shawol for ages! though my feelings towards hwa are a bit different since taemin is like my bestie, my soulmate (i know, dramatic, i just relate to him and key a lot), and hwa is... my ideal everything... but i theory obviously
their first concerts were something else, i would love to see them again though, but so far it hasn't happened and probably won't for a while 🙄 (glad you're free from your ex)
ahhhh i see, honestly the gossip girl aspects didn't matter to me much, i liked htat the focus was more on the characters, but i understand where you're coming from. i definitely felt the presence of the city in arrow in the dark.
i used to have a hwa side blog (it's sadly gone cause tumblr is a bitch) and i still have hwa centred twt account. i mainly post(ed) about him, made gifs, edits, fan art and some people treat me like a solo stan it's baffling. i won't lie and say he isn't my fave, because he is and i love him the most, doesn't mean i dislike other members, smh.
in the end you have to post and create whatever you want, i'm sure people who bias other members and perhaps don't really read seonghwa fics are a bit jealous because you're such a great writer. so i can't blame them for wanting to read a story about their fave from you! but yeah they just need to deal with it. there's no use writing something that you dislike or feel like isn't authentic
yeah, it was mostly instagram comments whenever he would post a selfie. the comments were usually pretty negative and i remember being disgruntled over it and happy he didn't cave to pressure and change his hair. that's one of the reasons i love hj - he always wears what he wants and does what he wants to his hair and that's that. he's had hairstyles i've not been a fan of but i always love that he does what he wants stylistically boldly. and now newer atiny love the mullet and i constantly see them wishing he would bring it back so i feel vindicated in a way lol.
twitter is overall a pretty negative space. i use it mostly for shitposting because it's just a mess. sorry you had to deal with ppl thinking you were a solo stan. i don't understand the logic in that because there is such a diff between being a solo stan and having a bias, you know? if you ever start posting on there again, let me know cuz i am always kinda looking for good hwa accounts on there.
yeah sometimes i feel a little bit of the odd one out in the fanfic community because i know you are sorta expected to take requests, write for every member of a group, etc and i don't. i'm also shy and keep to myself and i struggle with any sort of attention me (i try not to be too aware of how many notes or followers i have because it gives me anxiety lol). most of the friendships i've formed thru the blog is because people have messaged me first altho i try to overcome my shyness and message people if they've written a fic that i've read and enjoyed a lot. i understand if someone likes my writing style but doesn't wanna read a hwa fic they could be a little frustrated i haven't written for other members but as you said, my writing is an extension of me and it's important that i write what i want and what feels true to me. the work is better for it.
thanks for always taking the time to send in thoughtful mesages.
EDIT: also i completely forgot to reply to the taemin part of this message omfg, sorry about that.

I FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAYS about how you described the situations with dttwt, sleepytwt, dtblr, and sleepyblr like
first though another big reason WHY there r more sbi stans on tumblr and dt on twt (imo) is that sbi fans are less "stan"-like (they tend to be lore fans/be more dsmpblr) and it's more like a traditional media fandom which tumblr is like,, the home of vs twt which is the site of the infamous kpoptwt n stuff and so attracts more "stans" (the ppl who like ccs)
but HARD agree on the black and white thinking part all nuance is killed on twt bc its easier to use quick buzzwords to get a point across which abandon the usual elaboration you'd get if such a word limit didn't exist (ie tumblr)
and i never even considered the easy access the fandoms have to each other on twt :0 but that's such a good point since that also means more clashes
with the lore it definitely doesn't help that the VERY FIRST major conflict was a dt vs sbi (adjacent) one (lmanburg revolutionary war) which 100% paved the way for lore discourse btwn the groups
oh god old dtblr... i think the way it was also contributes to the dt vs sbi popularity divide btwn tumblr and twt bc i see so many twt users say they r turned away from tumblr bc of old 'dtblr' meaning that initially tumblr had immediately marked itself as a more dream-anti space (but not an anti-sbi one, explaining the divide) so not only did people adopt the general attitudes of old dtblr but such attitudes attracted those prone to accepting it as well
SO TRUE abt many anti-dt sleepyblrs being the way they are bc they base their perceptions off of how dttwt acts and with all this mess being soo big simply bc of twt's sheer volume (the amount of sbi blogs i've seen where the only time they talk abt the dt is to point out their toxic twt and/or "cringy" stans definitely points to this)
on the sleepytwt and dttwt mutually hate each other while (more) sleepyblr hates dtblr yet (most) dtblr r fine w them it makes me think about how dream is always made the villain in sbi fics even when its not abt the dsmp while in dt fics sbi rarely ever have a significant role in them in the first place
a major factor of it i believe is the idea of who's the "underdog" bc obv mcyttwt is way larger and has way more eyes on it than mcytblr and ppl tend to feel more entitled if they feel more "oppressed" (for the lack of a better word) and despite sleepyblr being bigger than dtblr not many people acknowledge it that way? and still act like there r more dt stans bc ppl tend to look out of the platform as well so in general sbi stans hating dt ones seems more justifiable bc 'just look at dttwt!!' while dt ones hating sbi ones is less so
i also think the early stages of both fandoms were huge contributors, bc early dtblr and sleepyblr baaaarely interacted (i don't even know if a distinct sleepyblr that wasn't mostly smpblr existed back then??) so any hatred btwn the two is actually more recent and thus established with the precedent of the two fandoms (like i said previously how there is a dttwt majority and their general hate on sbi)
meanwhile i remember CLEARLY how the rivalry btwn dttwt and sleepytwt started. not only was it bc of the idea that two mcyt twt fandoms must compete but also bc sleepytwt hated dttwt bc they saw dnf shipping as toxic + would flaunt about how their ccs got into no drama (during a time where dream especially got into a lot of it which was june) + they saw tommy joining the dsmp as dream "taking" tommy from sbi (despite him not being a part of it yet) + the 'kickschlatt' situation left many bitter while dttwt saw the addition of sbi + adjacent ccs to the dsmp as them ruining the smp and in general took advantage of their size to get things their way
(feel free to not post this!! esp if it's too inflammatory, unsolicited, its better for dms, or just too much in general xD but i wanted to respond w my thoughts)
(in reference to this even doe its been like eighty days i am so sorry)
o em gee me and esper hoteltea psychoanalyze the mcyt fandom part TWO (real) this is crazy
( + another old asks response at the v end relating to the og posts response LOL)
DUDE ive NEVER been able to articulate the difference between the energy of the two sets of fans cuz i interact/ed with both the stan like ppl and the non stan like ppl and the ppl in-between on BOTH platforms so theyre all blended in my head BUT WHAT UR SAYING IS SO RIGHT IT MAKES SENSE ,,,,, it's the 'cultural' split between the two platforms and its effect on the way their individual sets of fandoms function/consume media... like what u said about it being a traditional media fandom and how a lot of them focus on lore on here,,,, u r a genius
someone said once that twts use of buzzwords is like headlines in clickbait-y article titles and i think thats when it clicked for me y it works the way it does on there💀 such a bad system lol
i forgot about the first dsmp story conflict being literally sbi adjacent vs dt adjacent LMAO thats 100% a definitely a part of setting the tone for future divides/paving the way like u said
IVE SEEN TWT USERS SAY THEY ORIGINALLY TURNED AWAY FROM OLD DTBLR BC OF THAT TOOOOOO OH MY GOD💀its so crazy to me how things that might not seem so influential create such a butterfly effect lol
everything u said about the generalizations is so so true. and like ik ive done it myself as well at a smaller scale but its Such a bad mindset to have at the rate ive seen -- and half the time its misinformation on here about them in cases like that anyway lmao, and just spreads more and more bitterness and contempt over shit thats hardly an issue. like i see ppl on here yelling about them trending certain things for example when 1) its not trending bc its a legitimately trendy topic, it's trending bc several ppl talking about something at the same time causes it to trend in the "for u" trending tab (shitty design) and 2) its 'trending' for a very small amount of time in only certain geographical locations and 90% of the tweets under it are ppl going "ummm why is x trending i fucking hate x ppl for this so bad 🙄🙄🙄" which contribute to the small pool mentioned in 1) just by including the words, regardless of what theyre saying about it. so bringing it over here is essentially transcribing shit that is a not an issue, especially in the grand scheme of the tens of thousands of people in mcyttwt, to their followers on here that already have preexisting views of mcyttwt and wont double check themselves. ITS SO FRUSTRATING😭 its part of y i try my best and avoid talking about solely twitter-esque drama thats irrelevant on here, ESPECIALLY when in a "information providing" way (like "u guys wont BELIEVE whats going on on twitter in a totally large scale right now!11!!1" when its like,,, two mass qrted tweets that ended up getting deleted.) RANDOM TANGENT
UR SO RIGHT HOLY SHIT lmaooo and it's not only weird to have him involved in a solely negative way in their totally irrelevant to cc!dream fics but its made extra weird by them being the only ones doing it LOL, and REGULARLY like i remember that one non-lore sbi fic blowing tf up and being so lost when i heard about dream turning out to being the ultimate villain one secretly mind controlling all of them or something like what lol💀 no hate to the author im sure they didnt have malicious intent but its just an exhausting narrative to see repeatedly and with plenty of backing
ur so right about everything u said about the underdog victim complex lolll💀💀💀
I KNEW ABOUT THE DNF SHIPPING AND NO DRAMA THING CUZ I SAW PLENTY OF EFFECTS OF IT IN WHEN I JOINED BUT PUTTING IT INTO WORDS/CONTEXT LIKE THAT IS SOOO💀 dnf fr the origin of a blood feud theyre so powerful for that omg😍 also everything u said about tommy joining dmsp/the dsmp/etc is so embarassing help i didn’t know most of that
Tumblr media
thats so fucking funny/sad at the same time oh my god what a rollercoaster of a timeline. and its only gotten worse from there yikes. i remember seeing tweets of ppl trying to say they arent ACTUALLY part of mcyttwt theyre better and stuff in like,, early autumn 2020, wayy before it was even as messy and huge and infamous of a very multi-sectoral fandom as it is now. kind of ironic in hindsight knowing how certain things played out today. maybe it couldve all been different with a different start, on both apps🙁
and this was a super interesting topic ty for discussing it w me, i learned a lot tbh LMAOO and i appreciate u putting the time in to send ur asks and explaining off-branches of this in dms 😵😵 ur insight was so so good to have n i loved the long askssss again sorry this took ages to reply to lmaoooo
Tumblr media
okay and one more thing, i wanted to include this on here cuz me and esper spoke about it in dms and i also kind of wanted it to wrap off the topic (at least for now) and mainly i feel weirdly randomly putting a post about old dtblr on the dash after the topic on my own blog died a few days ago LOLLL (also its already a long as hell post who v few ppl r gonna read so might as well)
the split off from the extremely dream negative group came w several of them just totally going off into the deep end and involving themselves w doxing and this becoming known. that probably solidified a lot of opinions on them or drastically changed them, and a lot of ppl disassociated from them. the circle and the ones adjacent to it kind of became distanced and distinct then, so just that sector getting cut off is a big part of how the general larger community went on to grow from it all
the dsmp/dteam getting bigger and beginning their climb to their peak brought in new ppl and so growth of the fandom and new ppl helped drown out negativity, and dream himself continuing to grow as a person and as a cc probably further ‘encouraged’ for lack of a better word ppl to openly/like him and shit. and gnf mains in dtblr made "modern" 404blr (as opposed to the earlier distinct group of gnf 'mains' (solos)) cuz of other general fandom happenings which was like,,, a way better space. and then like generally as time went on all of this and conscious efforts to reduce negativity and more aspects im sure helped it all in becoming a more positive space over time, as well as w effects of the fandom multiplying in size. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND and have seen
OKAY THATS ITTTT WOOOO

Hi there! I just read your recent posts re "don't engage with Supernatural anymore if you want to send a message to the execs, don't use the official hashtags, etc" and I was just wondering if you know what kind of money that they pay for tracking tumblr content and tags? And if there's any sources for it?
And I don't know where to look for this kind of information - and I'd understand if this is too big an ask from you, so no worries if you can't answer - but I really want to know: what level of impact does engaging with tumblr content, either tags or just mentions in posts, have on their pulling in money post the airdate of the final episode?
(Like I thought their money post airdate would be all DVD sales and official, or partnered, merchandise. I wouldn't have thought that Spn would achieve a large demographic of new viewers post finale, even if it had been a decent or good finale - it's still 15 seasons long, with most seasons 20+ episodes long, and I would think that might be a lot for anyone who didn't start watching years ago? And especially now, since a lot of long term fans are very upset re the ending.)
But I really don't want to contribute to the Spn PTB somehow making any money off my fandom engagment after the lame finale they just gave us, and I don't want them to think that the 180 they pulled between 15x18 and 15x20 was okay. It's way past time for networks to stop queerbaiting.
It'd be nice to send that message, because the fandom can probably just switch to new tags, but I also want to be realistic about the likelihood of that message getting through to the network execs, and it just doesn't seem likely to me that a fandom as big and with as much love and spite as the spn fandom, would be capable of mostly shutting out engagement with the official spn stuff. Although Jensen Ackles does seem to be setting an strong example atm.
Anyways. Thank you very much for your time, I really hope this isn't too much of a bother. Have a good day!
Tumblr is the least important social media platform. If there’s any coordinated marketing strategy, it’s fairly new and I wouldn’t know. The big hitters are TWT, FB, IG mostly, but depending even YT can benefit them based on what they monetize out of people’s videos etc.
Tumblr in THEORY should be fine. I think. Honestly don’t quote me on that. I know Tumblr recently tried to clean up its image.
Keep in mind this isn’t about doing it on ~just~ SPN things. It’s about dropping it on ~all~ their content and bullshit as a ~result.~ Just deadline them.
