[dufrau]

saw somebody tweet “i would ship ronance if vickie didnt exist” and like, my friend my buddy my respected comrade. she pretty much doesn’t. Right now she is the equivalent of one of those signs in a mall saying like SEPHORA COMING SOON WATCH THIS SPACE except instead of “sephora” it’s “love interest”.    

#ronance #anti vickie #obviously ship whatever the heck you want #but the idea that we should feel some obligation to ship robin with vickie #is like well in that case we are probably actually obligated to ship robin with tammy thompson #because robin had a crush on her first and apparently crushes are sacred and binding #its nonsense #i also think that people who say this probably wouldnt actually ship ronance #like nobody actually ships robin with vickie they just use it as a reason not to ship ronance #just say you dont care about wlw #i am also just generally opposed to doing what i am told which translates into a strong dislike of the concept of Love Interest characters #vickie might wind up being awesome btw i am not actually anti vickie #but she will never be more awesome than nancy wheeler so why are we wasting our time

on one hand i think it should be mostly games with Actual intentional lgbt rep and themes being tagged as lgbt because tagging a bunch of random games as that makes it harder for people wanting representation to find what they're looking for. and ive also seen a lot of people who dont know how steam tags work spreading misinformation or getting their hopes up for nothing because of people tagging random games as lgbt . but on the other hand i think every new sonic game that comes out being tagged as lgbt on steam is hilarious . sonic lgbt icon forever

#for anyone who doenst know tags on steam are chosen by players #and tags on games that arent out yet are often put there as a joke and dont reflect the actual content of the game #so no sonadow isnt going to become canon because sonic x shadow generations is tagged as lgbtq #because sega didnt put that there. its just fans putting it there based on the title #which. the title isnt inherently a ship thing either lmao whenever sega puts 'x' between two names its meant to mean and or crossover #and doesnt inherently have romantic connotation. theyve done this sort of thing before #like yeah sonadow moment the title is funny people can joke about it i dont care #but i see so many people talk like theres no non-sonadow explanation for this and like. there is..? #you just cant turn your shipping brain off so youre ignoring it #Anyway. yeah of course its an lgbt game. it has sonic the hedgehog in it #yeah of course sonic frontiers is a gay game. look at every cutscene with sonic and knuckles in it

i think some of you need to sit down and interrogate why you dislike sabina so much because from where i’m sitting a lot of it is just thinly veiled misogyny. you don’t have to ship her with alex and you don’t have to like her but i’m so tired of people treating her as nothing more than an obstacle to their ship of choice and then trying to shift the blame onto horowitz for writing her poorly when there are literally dozens of male side characters who we know nothing about that get more fandom attention than sabina does. she’s not some evil irredeemable wench for struggling to support alex after the events of eagle strike. she’s a fifteen year old girl whose entire life was upended and has to watch someone she cares about be blackmailed into putting himself in danger again and again. if you can forgive yassen for sending alex to scorpia or k-unit for treating him like shit in brecon beacons, why can’t you forgive sabina for pulling away and trying to live a normal life. you can find her annoying or boring or pointless as a character, but alex very clearly cares about her. acting like he doesn’t says more about your attitudes towards female characters than it does horowitz’s lol

#alex rider #i’m not going to deny that she was badly written at times #especially after eagle strike #but that’s not her fault as a character. that’s on horowitz for being weird about women #the truth is that sabina is one of the only characters to point out alex’s own hypocrisy to him #she was the only person who suspected something was going on before he told her #her family literally took him in after he thought jack died #i can totally understand not shipping her with alex. #but you cannot deny that they care about each other. alex didn’t leave san francisco because he didn’t care about her #it’s not sabina’s fault that he’s traumatised and it’s not her fault for wanting to move past her own trauma #she didn’t do anything wrong. and like i’m sorry but this is anthony horowitz we’re talking about #he erased the mention of a gay couple just EXISTING in christmas at gunpoint when it got reprinted in secret weapon #i promise that even if sabina never existed yalex/tomlex/fredlex still wouldn’t be canon #she’s not getting in the way of anything. #so please stop fucking punishing her in fics where those ships DO get together #just stop punishing her in general. you dont have to write about her if you dont like her

[theyluvbix]

Bitches will come into fandom spaces and be sooo pressed when normal fandom shit happens. Yes we're shipping those two characters who had literally no screen time together. No we don't care if it doesn't make sense to YOUR personal interpretation of those characters. Fuck off if you don't like it.

#this is about noirpunk #i dont CARE what you personally think of them i think theyre fun and silly and wld get along #like not romantically but i do like the ship content !!! bc they're fun and silly and wld get along !!! #i have so many interactions of them in my head....they're so fun and silly.... #like its not even ab the anti-nazi thing i just think theyd be buddies in general #bc theyre fun and silly and like maybe they kiss ???? probably not but its fun and silly to think about

[maybeonedayillfindout]

nothing worse than a character you liked being really popular in the fandom but in the wrong way . if no one liked them then to see good posts all you'd have to do is go into a tag or something but if there is a thriving community of people who ship him with a guy you hate it gets several times harder to find posts you agree with

#this post is about armitage hux. #im sorry im not a hater but i genuinely understand those who hate his ass so much better then the huxxkylo shippers. like come on #be so for real. kylo ren would not under any circumstances fidn hux attractive. you could not waterboard it out of him #and anyway even if the ship was fine now he's just a twink!! #now he's misunderstood and really quite a nice guy at heart #NO #SHUT UP #i am probably the only enjoyer of the “i dont care who wins i jsut need kylo ren to lose” line because that was so in character for me #i started giggling i was like yes be a petty bitch. go against your own interests because he was mean to you. #anyway anyone else out there thouroughly enjoy hux as a character but not kylo ren? lets talk i need to get out of this nightmare #star wars #one day i will stop putting 75% of the post in the tags #general hux #izzy hands #ofmd

[crunchchute]

if i do sonic related art again (or specifically, sonic movie fanart) i will post it here Unless its too shippy i guess. then its going to the grave

#you know. my other acc made for ship stuff but turned into a rant account lmao #human ships that is. if i draw gay hedgehogs i think theyre fine here too #cant run from my past #crunch lore its a furry artist that enjoys drawing humans more espec. when it comes to ships but still thinks furries are easier to draw #trying to split human and furry art and then being in the sonic fandom but only enjoying the human characters is hell #like its sonic.. but its the humans... and same with fnaf #i drew the animatronics a few times but i dont like the furry versions of them and i mainly care about will #i had more tags here but they just disappeared. great to know tumblr doesnt care about what i want to say #but i do. so i meant for fnaf im only in the mood to draw william 99% of the time including stuff i think is connected to him #but i also enjoy the human charas more than the animatronics in general i guess which is kinda funny #deep in the tags more crunch lore. when it comes to springtrap and the whole deal with people wanting him #if its william in the suit specifically. thats what i like. if its springtrap like a furry i do not give a shit honestly #it has to be a moldy costume on the rotting man himself for me to care and want him l o l

[giraffeclass]

unrelated to BD but god I hate how ppl think shipping is synonymous with “I want/expect this to be canon”

Like if I say I ship something and someone responds like “oh silly you that will never be canon” like cool i dont care? I don’t ship things cause I want them to be canon. I literally just ship for fun cause I enjoy those characters’ dynamics. Hell sometimes I prefer canon staying the way it is and consider shipping as more of a fun AU thing.

#just all the kazurei discourse got thinking abt this #just seeing annoying ppl be like Oh Stupid Shippers Theyre Not Gay #like. 1. i know its not canon i dont care #and im not gonna be disappointed if they dont kiss or whatever #i literally just dont care! telling me my ship isnt canon is not the own you think it is #2. why are you so bothered by ppl liking a gay ship thats not gonna be canon anyway #sorry lol this is a sentiment that rly bothers me in fandom in general

Tumblr is the only bandom space I like at this point every other app has a stick up their ass. The fact that being a Petekey stan in 2023 is widely mocked, made fun of, and is controversial to like…

#petekey #like legit wtf is wrong with the bandom in general #why do we (not me) care so much about who tf people ship #rpf band discourse in 2023 literally put me out of my fucking misery #can we go back to 2015 I’m begging #Petekey ran the rpf game back in the day fr take me back #rpf #it’s crazy bc the same ppl r fine with other rpf shit #they just really hate Petekey #I do not think they understand the concept of fandom #instead of letting people be they specifically find Petekey posts and post them and make fun of the people who made the post #and share to their followers to do the same #literally what the fuck is wrong with you #if you don’t like a ship maybe oh idk #DONT FUCKING INTERACT???? #it goes both ways #why do I have to tell fellow adults how dni works and to mind their own business #shit is fucking embarrassing #they make me embarrassed to be in bandom #why does modern bandom moralize everyone and everything Jesus Christ #bandom #I’ve seen two rounds of Petekey hate within the past week on Twitter I’m so tired #I can’t even talk abt it on there bc I will get bullied #remember when I tried to call them out for how they talked about it and I got mass bullied and ppl mocked my age n (newly changed) pronouns #cuz I sure do! #petekey stans stay off Twitter and tiktok atp it sucks

[sonknuxadow]

its honestly crazy to me how so many people are obsessed with movie robotnik but wont touch any other version of eggman with a 10 foot pole. or even any other sonic character who isnt agent stone. and no hate to agent stone i love him too but i dont understand why so many people watch the sonic movies and come out with the only sonic related thing they care about being stobotnik and not even wanting to talk about anything else that happened in the movie

#i honestly just cannot comprehend getting into something solely for a ship and not caring about anything else like. how. why #also the amount of people who thought robotnik was hot in the first movie #but changed their minds the second he started actually looking like eggman #??? do you guys even like eggman. do you even like sonic in general #jim carrey is just some guy to me so i dont understand why people were attracted to him in the first place Tbh but whatever not the point

[yuwuta]

inuokko.... yuu2... yuwuta do i dare ask you how you feel about okkofushi next?

ofc you can but be prepared for me to be very unnormal about everything mentioned in this ask 😁😁🤒

#anonymous #can you..... tell i like yuuta :/ #i also love to think about how all his pairings pan out + reader bc its very <3 to me why have one when u can have fun! #i think inuokko is the most fair/even they both approach u at the same time and want the 3 of u to work #yuuji and yuuta.... bites hand.... gathers myself...... how do i say this...... #feels like yuuta thinks yuuji is way too cute for his own good + youre cute with yuuji #and yuuta leans very quickly that he likes the feeling of having u both admire him... having people to protect and want to keep to himself. #ANYWAY! okkofushi rise but theyre tough i feel like it takes a while #lots of dancing around each other and dancing around you #megumi swears he's over his crush on yuuta bc he has a crush on you (which he will deny and take to his grave if he can help it) #but somehow along the way you and yuuta become friends and it's. a lot for megumi lets just say that #think u and yuuta have to find a way to make a move on megumi because hes..... special <3 lets say that #anyway........................... #in general tho im not picky or have particularly strong feelings about ships in general so in addition to loving yuuta #thats part of the reason i like all of these <2 #as far as jjk goes there's only two ships i would say i dont like/dont care to talk about but it's like. im not gonna rag on it either yk 😭 #honestly tho... even tho i am biased and the most informal about yuuta and yuuji at least u didn't ask about itafushi... #the things i could say... lord...

[ladyofthelake]

Gonna be mean look away

But just saw a post about how Gwen/Arthur have amazing chemistry on Merlin...okay

#look gwen is cute and badass af #but cmon her and lancelot were everything #arthur is always on his best behaviour around her it feels so fake #he has more chemistry with the girls when he was under a spell lmao #a*wen is the thing I dislike the most like pls I don't care what you ship #and actually some of their scenes are cute and I dont mind them genuinely a few are sweet to me #but generally I think they were badly written and their romance came outta nowhere #so seeing a post about how they had amazing chemistry just made me laugh #like you do you #but uh #nah #they both had way more chemistry with other people than each other #plus gwen being embroiled in this romance plot could get tedious when she had so much more she could do #pls dont @ me

[spicyicymeloncat]

Yknow what no. I’ll say it louder. Sometimes we should understand that we hate a ship because it’s weird in our specific interpretation of characters.

But if someone ships it and has a different interpretation of the characters, then whether that’s morally okay on how accurate or inaccurate their interpretation is.

If characters are clear cut canonically related/have an age gap, then I don’t think you can just say “well this is an au where they aren’t”.

If the characters are not technically this but its implied in the story and makes so much more sense if they are, then I think the crime committed is how the author completely mischaracterises the characters in order to force a romance.

And you can hate weird interpretations of characters for the sake of shipping but call it as it is. It’s not doing anyone favours for confusing the act of “promoting abusive dynamics in a positive light” and “writing characters out of character” and “writing characters different to popular fan interpretation”.

And don’t tag this post as pro ship or anti or whatever in the idea that this is to support either, because I really don’t like those labels. Imo I think those labels only serve to simplify a situation that needs a lot more nuance to understand. And it feels icky to say that something as serious as various abusive dynamics is actually complicated, but in fandoms where characters ages are weird or ages at different rates or where sometimes there’s a official spin off of the og content where they kept the characters but made them all the same age and completely overhauled their dynamics; the maths gets a little more complicated. There are some icky people out there but that doesn’t mean you can just blindly go into things without properly thinking about it first.

#as a general rule TAG AND TW YOUR WORK IF ITS POTENTIALLY SOMETHING PPL DONT WANNA SEE #sometimes people just attack without thinking and like I get it but also consider whether what you’re doing is both justified and whether it #will accomplish what you want it too #bc insulting someone is not a way to convince them to stop doing what they’re doing #<- I’m a hypocrite actually I called someone old the other day for disagreeing with me #but like in general if you care about this issue and want to resolve something then there are better ways to go about it #idk maybe I’m just annoyed I missed an opportunity where this sentiment would of been applicable #i dislike making posts like this bc on one hand I believe in what I have to say but on the other I don’t want to post about beef when this #blog is literally about silly guys #but yknow it’s just a post out of many #discourse #shipping discourse

[ronanceisintheair]

No hate on your opinions just letting you know that I think by tagging posts anti steddie they're still showing up in the steddie tag? I was in there and found one of your posts and since you censor it in the main post I gather you don't want to be posting in the steddie and/or steve tags. Maybe use something like st3ddie?

(Universally across tumblr we use one tagging system that would be #anti whatever, using multiple censored versions of a ship or name doesn't help. If someone follows me and likes st*ddie in conjunction with ronance and they have the anti tag blocked-like they should-than me tagging st@ddie or st&ddie or whatever will risk them seeing the anti stuff)

All this to say yes that's a flaw in the matrix of tumblr, but there is ways to combat that by using tumblr tag blocking system or filtered content blocking system. Where you block 1 universally used tag to negate seeing the posts.

Thank you for your consideration anon and hope this doesn't come off as bitchy, it just is what it is. If someone doesn't have the proper tags blocked it's on them. If they know about the flaw in tumblr matrix and don't take action it's on them.

All in all things are tagged anti and blocked tags exist. Back to the regularly scheduled ronance love

#i dont post enough anti for yall to be messaging me like this tbh🤔 #also is only st*ddie people because ive posted more hate on st*ncy and nobody cares #probably because fr*uity f*our overlap or whatever #but i think ive made it clear what ships i like #not everybody likes your ship and that's that. it's fiction #I'm not calling you names and questioning your morals. im just saying I don't see what a lot of yall see in some of this mlm content #and its only ever with mlm content(across many fandoms ive been in) #people who like mlm stuff get rallied up once theres even minor disagreement #<- all this is my general rant and not at you anon #thank you for your consideration though anon truly but it's easier thay we all utilize what tumblr gives us #asksintheair
