"average person creates 3 new AUs per year" factoid actually just statistical error. average person makes 0 AUs per year. Alternate Universes Catie, who lives in cave & makes over 2 each month, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Wait wait wait does Belos forcing everyone into one specific type of magic represent the way many pagan communities have been christianized because the way many of them believed in multiple gods was viewed as "savage" .... Holy

Thinking abt demomedic again... I think they're both so outgoing and flirty but don't rlly ever expect anything they say to be taken seriously or reciprocated. They both manage to completely catch the other off guard just by actually viewing him as a potential object of romantic affection

thinkin abt how sussy is initially so closed off n hesitant to be genuinely vulnerable with me, instead acting all snarky n sometimes even faking being vulnerable (he has issues ok). but slowly.. he starts to open up more n has moments of genuineness. affection even.
i think bc hes already done a lot of self work while stuck w frey, this half of him that gets stuck with me/jupe is a lot more 'canonically' ooc. partly cuz of him learnin abt not being rheddhig-made like he thought (n therefore is his mission even worth it? is it even his? why is he doing this for ppl he doesnt know?) and having an identity crisis over it. partly bc im now the 2nd person to treat him like a person and not just a weapon.
but mainly bc hes having such a weird fucking time. how is he even surviving while being stuck with a non tanta?? how is jupe (a non tanta) surviving it? 😭 why is everyone from earth Like That???? what the fuck happened to rheddah while he was gone? its been like a thousand yrs. how is he even gonna get out of this situation?
like realistically he'd have to somehow convince jupe to get strong enough to beat (+maybe kill??) frey so that he can reabsorb the other half of him and escape? bc theres no way hes gonna b able to escape if frey is there, she'd just capture him again. and hes unlikely (read: never) going to be able to convince jupe of that so um. whats the plan sussy? what is the plan here?
trying to get into his mindset is fascinating fr the man (demon) is going through it 💔

i am happy with my life rn but i do often wonder if things would have shook out differently had i realized i was in love with my best friend in 7th grade instead of like writing her a sappy journal for when she moved away including fully writing out the lyrics to sarah mclachlan's i will remember you before ultimately deciding it was to embarrassing to even give her, rediscovering said journal like 5 years later, reading it, and being like. hmm. something very lgbt was happening to me

for aforementioned gem au. fusions. techno is known to be Good At It. he's awesome at pretending to be put together enough. He can put aside whatever is going on for the task at hand. (there is, also, an aspect of being A Means To An End but he says he doesn't need to worry about that until it bubbles over and he does have to worry about that.). Phil + Techno are called Watermelon Malachite and they have this absolutely down.
Ranboo is the opposite end of the spectrum and he is awful at it. They try sometimes. Phil tries to teach him and Techno tries to teach him and I'm not sure if Tubbo is a gem but if he was they try because it's #Romantic (and Tommy says c'mon man it's easy, don't you trust me, ohh wait you just fuse with Tubbo don't you). He can't do it. It simply does not take.
Until Ranboo gets poofed for wayyy too long and they put his gems in his room. He is NOT coming out. (He is afraid because of identity reasons. Experiments analogous). Eventually Phil and Techno are like ... .... he's not like Dead are they. So they try fusing w/ him as a last resort (As shown is possible in EP Change your mind, for some reason)
Except now Technoblade is stuck in Ranboo's subconscious as well . He has to talk and coax him out, heartfelt conversation which is absolutely the strong suit of both parties,
and my long and convoluted explanation for why No ranboo doesn't fuse. but also peerpress fusion is a very fancy Eudialyte (That exists consciously for a whole 3 minutes of Hey! That's neat! before becoming unstable and unconsciously for an undetermined amount of time facedown on ranboo's floor)
#vwoop.noises#rnb Doesn't try again after this.#He's a FAR more sure in his identity that he's Just Ranboo. though . I think of rnb and identity a lot. The experiments#There is no secret cooler/edgier Ranboo. He's just Ranboo and he's got Two Gem. He is not going to form again and There's ew!r#He still doesn't like fusing Tho get out of his brain#I believe he could forcible eject tchno if he wanted in this scenario but he doesn't want to forcibly eject tchno This is needed#Hes Not Forming Otherwise.#tchno... is not built for this he's built for kinda repressing his own issues and beating something up#Phil also believes in the philosophy of repress your emotions become big murdergem but in a different way. Regardless this is about prprd#I've had a few thoughts in my time. About this. I'm going to be real I have no idea what the conversation would even begin to look like#But they do the impossible#They wouldn't NOT say that. Unsure what exactly they'd say. They could come to a helpful conclusion somehow#What if Mndful Education was worse#hmm. I think tchno actually also kind of turns away from it post bedrock breakup. Except WM . Emeralds r Emeralds#This is good for him also. Bonding time by making sure your good friend isn't dead#But yeah Rnb doesn't want to repeat this experience. It's fine. Maybe in an absolute unmatch of strength#Anyways. I've thought a tad abt my gem au and peerpressure. I like the trend and gems coming back#.. agh. In the event of forceful seperation and trying to animate the two gems It's just the soul and the mind again

I’m have thoughts. About Supernatural. And queerbaiting. In 2022.
But. Consider this:
* People who get really really into fandom and ships are inordinately likely to be queer. But also are inordinately likely to be autistic.
* Supernatural has a specific reason to be appealing to autistic fans due to Castiel being heavily autistic coded, an interpretation which was explicitly supported by Misha Collins.
* But also Supernatural, being a long-running serialised speculative fiction show with heavy latent continuity, is also just inherently very appealing to fandomy autistics.
* Supernatural heavily heavily blends lines between fandom and canon in ways that heavily encourage those fandomy behaviours - that’s one of the reasons it got so popular among that crowd!
* But also like. Supernatural would REALLY encourage those behaviours. Like, they literally had a twitter account for the set design crew!! Who’d tweet stuff like ‘can anyone tell us what previous episode this wallpaper came from?’ to enforce to the fandom that they were paying attention to this stuff and that it could be important!!
* The backlash against Supernatural largely became ‘stupid delusional fangirls convinced they’re seeing something that was never there (when good represetation is right over here)’.
* Said backlash coincided chronologically with the mainstreaming of fandom and the rise in more neurotypical-normative fandom.
* All of this allowed Supernatural to wash its hand of any part in any of this because lol, people were literally saying Destiel would be canon because of the colour of the lights on the wall!! That is obviously Insane obsessive shut-in behaviour!!
Put all together: in queerbaiting their queer audience by putting in hints that they never intended to follow up on, were they also exploiting a largely autistic audience?
As someone who never intended to buy into Supernatural... I have literally never encountered any place as absolutely batshit for autistic brains as it. People would literally write tens of thousands of words speculating on the implications of a one-off line of dialogue about an in-universe AU and what it means for the person who wrote that in-universe AU!! And I ate it all up!! I gorged myself on that shit!!! It was some kind of actual drug for pattern-seeking autistics and I felt half manic the entire time!!!
And when I think on it. I doubt the Supernatural creators, like, actually fully understood what they were doing, there. But they were obviously aware they had a legion of ‘obsessive fangirls’ who’d read that kinda stuff into it.
And did they... take advantage of that? Feeding those hints in, and encouraging fans to care about them in language they’d understand? Knowing fully well that to non-fans - or even to other kinds of fans - who can’t imagine the mentality, that this would all seem totally bonkers?
(And like, fyi: Castiel being autistic never got any kind of like official word, either. Stretching the term in ways I don’t necessarily agree with, that could be considered ‘neurodivergentbaiting’, too. But I’ve noticed fandom extremely eager to denounce any meaning in autistic representation unless representation more personal to them is also met - see someone on reddit yesterday who was really angry about Newt Scamander being autistic because he’s just ‘the classic super smart straight white guy’ as though characters like that are in any remote way common, anyway. Or Overwatch fans totally overlooking Symmetra, an Autistic dark-skinned Indian woman, because nothing means anything until the game introduces a [neurotypical?] black woman.)
Either way I think this pretty much sums up why the backlash to Supernatural fans pisses me off so much. It wasn’t ~fans being crazy~. I mean, the fans were right, in the end - Castiel was in love with Dean all along. But because the relationship was foreseen and enjoyed through largely autistic perspectives, it was seen as invalid. Meanwhile, queer representation that offers little for autistics - that is very mundane and straightforward, with Normal-acting ‘realistic’ characters, which match their idea of what ‘ordinary queer people’ act like, are heralded as the only correct form of representation.
In saying all this, perhaps discussions of queer rep in fandom have leaned too heavily autistic-normative in the past - it’s true that neurotypical fans are much less likely to look up information about the characters and so hear author’s words about their sexualities, for example. But I don’t think this total shift the other way is good, either.
#oh god now I'm having thoughts like 'was queer rep supported more in non-human creatures such as aliens in the past'#'because autistic fans are more likely to find non-human characters relatable in general anyway'#cant believe that me just trying to imagine some way to explain to the new person at my friends' board game nights#who is openly queer and to whom I joked recently I wish we were still in the timeline where Putin resigned cause Destiel went canon :/#only for them to start absolutely HOOTING in a way that made me suddenly self-conscious about liking supernatural#that I did and in many ways still do in fact supernatural#lead to me having some kinda epiphany abt the shift in preceptions of queerbaiting by fandom audiences happening bc of fandom audiences#becoming much more neurotypical normative than they had previously been#OH MY GOD I JUST REMEMBERED#yknow the whole anti thing of like 'these sex-obsessed fetishising fujoshis who see yaoi everywhere'#one time someone brought that up on twitter and I wrote a common sorta off the top of my head#suggesting that those are neurotypical fans who don't understand special interests/hyperfixations etc.#and that they're unusually likely to see m/m as a target because queer women in fandom are inordinately likely to be NT#because they have other reasons to come to fandom (i.e. lack of community IRL and needing to make their own queer rep)#so you get all these queer nt women interacting with each other and looking over at the autistics over there#and that's what they conclude#anyway uh hmm. lots of. thoughts today huh.

whats more insane than in merlin episode 2x04 when merlin and arthur have that long convo about arthur and how he likes “gwen” except its clearly about how arthur likes MERLIN. and they both know this.. or possibly only arthur knows it… or perhaps most possible of all? neither of them know it.
#also i am no further than this episode so no spoiler pls#if for some reason u watched this show before the year 2022… which is the exact right year to watch all of bbc’s merlin…#bcuz bcuz bcuz#the way right before the scene starts its like arthur has one of the most rare moments ever where he actually says smthing non mean to#merlin and is like ‘sorry i shldnt have risked ur life’#and merlins like ‘haha well they do say love makes you do strange things..’ and arthurs like ‘what r u talking abt??’#and merlins like ‘just admit you have feelings for gwen’ and its like hmm. yeah. for gwen#and merlins like ‘why cant u just admit you like her’#and then theres the whole drawn out thing of arthur being like ‘bcuz nothing can eve happen btwn us!! so i cant bcuz it hurts😫 too much😫’#like ‘my father would never allow it’#and then when merlin goes ‘but when youre king you can change that..’ and arthurs like ‘i cant except ..guinievre(idk spell) ..to wait’#and the way theyre soo far apart physically for all this like so far apart and rhen merlin comes right up to say. ‘if she feels the same-#-she’ll wait for you.’#INSANE. INSANITY. INSANE#castle.txt#what if i posted this then went directlt ro sleep#also what’s more insane is. gwen and lance r rlly cute actually i like them a lot… like. ourhhhhggghg#also this episode was unimaginably cruel for the ‘nobody cares abt u’ evil speech delivered the gwen.:((((.. pls no..#i mean idk im willing to be proven wrong on the lance thing but idk. i mean obv gwen/morgana is quite real too#which! when i forst started watching i thought like#gwen/morgana was invented by internet girlies who wanted to shove the girl love interests together to make way for their gay boy ship#and like. that it wasnt real and j a woke excuse to not pay attention to the girls and why they arent w the boys#but actually they do have a real lesbian thing going on fr. i cld talk abt it but ill wait#god can u believe im merlinposting. i love myself❤️❤️❤️ I MUST SLEEP..
