#i know my fandom bs

[purplehoodie09]

Picture me sitting there after i watched the new Spiderverse just waiting for the Miguel O'hara x Peter B Parker to kick in

#i mean it was bound to happen wasnt it #and i was right!! #i know my fandom bs #spider dads #honestly slay #spiderman into the spiderverse #miguel o'hara #peter b parker #this is just like the time i predicted lisa x jean would be a thing in genshin #i started playing that game the momment it got released there was no fanart to be found #im telling you i know my fandoms

"i dont understand how you can ship-" you're no fun.

"they're the blueprint! canon! why would you-" you're boring. shush. go back to playing with your sad beige toys.

#im really tired #let anyone do as they please ffs #ship everything or nothing #it's fine #just dont butt in #pjo #hoo #bc yall need to hear this THE MOST #drove off 80% of the pjo fandom years ago by doing exactly this to the point of exasperation #percico #just #fucking everyone #but also #marauders #jegulus #starchaser #moonwater #moonseeker #isnt it fun how i cant tag the major ships bc i know 100% if i did id wake up to absolutely bs in my ask box

"zk is an awful ship they'd be so horrible and toxic together" zutara is literally baby's first EtL ship who go from enemies to close friends in canon they're one of the most wholesome interations of the trope imaginable but also i want everyone to know i'd still ship it even if it was horrible and toxic <3 because they're 2d moving pixels and not fucking real <3

#holly talks bs #zutara #i know some in the zk fandom itself might not agree but i find the actually wholesome defense tiresome #it doesn't matter they're fictional cartoons it's FINE #entering my toxic zutara era #zutara as you are the only person who understands me and this is gonna get sooo co dependent and i might let the world burn to keep you #zutara killing yon rha and hiding the body and lying about it to the gaang to keep the peace forging a dark secret between them #zutara doing their public facing duty as the fire lord and the avatar's wife while carrying on a decades long affair that only #comes to light after they're both dead #think of the POSSIBILITIES have some IMAGINATION #lads (gender neutral) that is what fiction is FOR

How I sleep knowing I'll never trust anyone that hates Sydney but worships Richie:

#the bear #the bear fx #sydney adamu #carmen berzatto #richie jerimovich #jk kind of #well on days I don't see or think about Sydney haters #under every damn comment section in this fandom is someone saying Sydney didn't take accountability #like I know we all have our biases but yall are really shameless about it #Sydney scored A LOT of Ws for The Beef AND The Bear #but one time she makes a mistake and justifiably walks away from a toxic work environment she's the devil #Richie worked at The Beef for years and Sydney did more for it in what less than four months than he did #on top of being a prick to Sydney in particular because she was changing things he wanted to keep the same #to the detriment of the restaurant but also everyone #and overall being unpleasant to Carmy #Nat and anyone that didn't find him funny or interesting or like his bs #pre-Forks Richie reminds me of those types of people that only listen to people that like them #and I love that because it's realistic to some ppl #I do like Richie #it just leaves a bitter taste in my mouth knowing there are people that hate Sydney #ignore her accomplishments only to raise up Richie #in the same breath when the actual show is showing you what's up #like you'd think there were different versions of the show with how these two are perceived #I get this weird need to defend Sydney when people shit on her because I wonder how often said people treat the Sydneys of the world #but that aside #In Fishes Richie mentions something about wasting potential at the beef #In Ceres it's implied he called the popo on the dealers after Sydney deescalated a situation Richie previously dealt with #in an unorthodox manner #he recognised he needed to change but still was an arsehole to the one person who was facilitating that change effectively Sydney #this show is great but people denying what they're seeing on their own screens is crazy

i love makoto so much but fanon does her so much better (the good parts of the fandom) because in the game her character is so lack luster. they butchered her confidant it is so borning and not even about her. they made her a cop. A COP. they pushed this "canon waifu" role onto her (before sumire came along and did it Even Worse). and it SUCKS because SHE IS SO MUCH MORE!!! SHE IS SO MUCH BETTER!!!! SHE COULD'VE BEEN SO MUCH BETTER!!! the way i feel about canon makoto is the same way i feel about the canon ryuji events post komoshida where he's horribly mistreated and used purely as comic relief: i ignore them <3 my game now <3 never happened <3 my ocs <3

You are so right. I generally apply this to all characters in p5 bc the game does such a shit job of staying consistent with character arcs and personalities. Theres a desperate need to throw in perverse jokes at the expense of female characters and a need to show that the police (as a whole) are reliable people who are not influenced by things like money and power; only the BAD cops do that. Not to mention this obvious fatphobia and homophobia but i feel likes thats a given.

But back to Makoto. Shes a victim of bad writing just like everyone else. Ryuji during the kamoshida arc was fighting with self loathing and genuine anxiety, and aside from the like. One comment on Panthers outfit in the metaverse, hes more than well behaved. All of that is shelved as soon as Kamoshida is gone and replaced with him being weird comic relief (and the focus of alot of sexual jokes that were nonexistent in the beginning of the game). Anns arc about self love and empowerment is completely dropped as soon as the nasty bad guy is put away (so that its good to be weird about her w the Good Guys). Makoto loses her a chunk of her personality to be the mature waifu which is INSANE to me bc shes like. Not okay or normal at all 😭😭😭 she THINKS shes responsible and so does everyone else on her team, but its an act! She doesnt know shit! And she doesnt know that she doesnt know shit bc shes respectful and adults dont care about anything as long as u respect them!

Its very telling that for literally every single thief (and goro), you can see the exact moment the writers gave up on adding anything of worth to their characters outside of the social links. Its like they didnt know what to even do w the characters at their disposal after their main arcs were complete. No mention of friends hanging out without you, no mention of having group hangouts. Everyone is treated as a core, important member of the friend group DURING their arc, but outside of it, they are acquaintances at best. Theres nothing in the game that convinces you that these guys are legitimately friends who care for each other and do Friend Things. And i describe it like that bc there IS a game that treats them all as friends, and its strikers! Strikers/Scramble genuinely feels like the game p5 wanted to be; a road trip w your team where they stay up at night talking to each other and hanging out and doing things together that dont necessarily include you, the player. Its refreshing and lovely but it sucks that u get that kind of attention to detail in a ‘spinoff’ title

#chattin #i hesitate to use spinoff bc its a pretty big game #and theres an amazing plot with wonderful characterization #and their handling of jails and jail owners is LEAGUES better than the bs they tried to make up w palace users #and all the thieves feel like family. and not in the annoying fandom way; like #were family in the same way a family is forged and tended to. i love you. no one is left behind. no one is made to feel inferior another #its really good and honestly if u want more interactions between everyone i really recommend a playthrough #but yeah #p5 sucks #i love it but i love the version of it i made in my head LMAO #maybe p5r did a better job w the dialogue and some questionable scenes #(i wouldnt know. i didnt play it lol) #so maybe thats what people need to be using as a point of reference #but i only plyed p5 so this is what i have; a group of people who show up for meetings and then go about their life #and that kinda sucks. why make this wholly unique experience in which these teens can only relate to each other #make them bonded over their shared experience w this unbelievable world #and then not only make them NOT interact; but have the end be ‘okay by akira.’ and leave it at that #they just. didnt know what to do w anyone #they needed their girls to be waifubait and the boys to be an afterthought #they needed a buffet of older woman for pathetic men to fuck through their self insert #and they needed a story convoluted enough to keep people stuck trying to figure it out themselves #its bad. its so bad. its so fucking bad. but i have to be here. WE have to be here. #bc who else is going to take these characters out of hell and treat them right ??!!!

"writing process memes of "mmm this is the REAL goiod part" but idk is this one too niche.

#doodles #rebus #the yonkoma universe will always exist to the side though u know it #it is fun to be your own goofy fandom for your own thing #also: ooogh i am so invested in fully fleshing out lamarr and demersa's prequel style backstory i uuuh oop #dropped it and smoothing things out made the story as a whole morph into a weird fantasy epic when i wasnt looking #so rather than plonking what would be a pacing breaking boulder of a Too Long flashback in the middle of the main story #we might uuuh be going in more or less chronological order starting with lam n dem's childhood then like a 10 year timeskip #and i actually revised my big ole story-map out found like the Perfect way #to parcel these things out with good pacing n still have wiggle room for the eldritch monster of the week format we can eat #-without- it fucking up the overarching narrative or bringing it to a frustrating fucking crawl for bs we have no reason to care about #...if i do everything right anyway like if i pull off what i am trying to pull off i will do my best to not fuck That aspect up #that's what the paid editors will be for i suppose!

[fubuwu]

Fuck it. Since I'm being spat on and tarnished by jc antis I'm unashamedly doing call out posts as they have harassed me on all my posts and got their little friends to gang up on me. Starting with this "lovely" person

Calling me an abuse apologist just because I said that madame yu had tough love methods..... I was in no way excusing her abuse towards wwx with that FYI. Wwx wasnt even mentioned in the og post.... Never once denied she was abusive in the post either (in fact i ackowledged her abuse numerous times in the post and how her children act around her. But apparently you willfully missed that part). I said she had tough love methods towards her children. NOT WWX. Wwx was not her child or have you forgotten that? She has a tough love attitude in the sense that she toughens up her kids, expects no nonsense, wants them to strive to do better, get on with it, stiff upper lip attitude etc. This does not mean it's a good parenting tactic.

---

Using tough love to describe her parenting technique isn't a compliment. Apparently some of you don't know what it means because tough love, whilst there is love and good intentions behind the actions, it can also have unintended bad consequences on your children and is not a form of love you should expose your child to if you want them to become normal, emotionally stable people.

---

It can lead to unhealthy coping mechanisms and suppressing emotions amongst other things I won't go into. I was in no way complimenting her. It was a critique. That should have been obvious. But in your words, ig some of you don't have reading comprehension.

---

To accuse me of something so extreme as excusing abuse over a FICTIONAL CHARACTER and trying to get all your friends to agree and jump on my posts because I never explicitly made the above points obvious is what a bully would do. You know nothing about me and decided to make such allegations over a single post. I will not stand for this bullying.

---

YOU should be ashamed of your behavior. I've seen your other posts and how you talk about and to REAL PEOPLE.

---

You acting all morally superior whilst attacking me and many others like this makes you an abusive person FYI. And I won't sit there and take it from you or your friends.

---

Moving on to specimen number two

This person has been spamming my notifications jumping on EVERY post, being disrespectful and pretty much accusing me, an ace person, for being ignorant about MY OWN IDENTITY and using ace stereotypes just because I surmised that jc could be ace due to his lack of interest in romance.

---

Echoing the words used by another user in the thread, but denying that such ace persons exist is acephobic in itself. I'm an ace person who isnt interested in relationships outside anything that is close, platonic but meaningful. Many others in the jc fandom say the same thing which is why they see themselves in him. A large portion of the jc fandom are actually ace in fact and we love to see him used in ace rep posts. We're already made to feel like freaks, so to have that thrown in my face is very hurtful. Above all twisting my words and making out I said every ace person hates romance is very disingenuous. I NEVER once said that in the post. I wont have my character attacked and lied about like that.

---

Also, once again TWISTING my words, implying I was pissed off about the incel claims when it was so obvious that I was merely asking out of curiosity where these claims come from?? Because it was never implied in the canon text. There was no anger or malice behind my questions. It was all open discussion. I can see now that this was mental gymnastics at play here to justify your hcs that you know are not canon and use it as an excuse to attack my posts with your friends, all because you were proven wrong. You lashed out on what was an otherwise polite discussion. That behavior is all entirely on you.

---

Ive only ever been respectful in my posts and they were never done to provoke arguments or hate on others opinions. So to wake up and be accused of all sorts over a fictional character is very hurtful and just shows how terribly low your side of the fandom has to stoop just to prove a point and hate on jc.

---

Im not tolerating it and these blatant LIES any longer. I hope other jc antis read these posts and see how nasty you all are. And if anyone thinks this sort of treatment is okay, then you need to look inwardly and step away from the computer. I'm done here.

#jiang cheng #mo dao zu shi #I'm fed up #I'm going to stand up for myself. I'm not going to sit there and let these bullies spread all this bs without saying my piece #My posts have all been respectful and open to discourse #But this..... #This is bullying. Especially when I specifically asked on my posts to just block and move on if you disagree with me. But you disrespected #That shared my posts with slanderous claims knowing full well it will draw the attention of your friends #I'm willing to engage in discourse but this isn't discourse.

it's been 2 years since grymforge was added to bg3 but every time I post something about Nere here on tumblr or on youtube, people still comment "wait what? I had no idea you can save this guy" and "how do you get this option?" and I explain step by step every time. I guess this is protecting a blorbo since day 1 lmao your online guide for keeping the victorian child alive against all odds

#Protecting a blorbo but not in the sense that you get into fandom bs fights. it's just people asking “heh what? he can live?” and I explain #it's been 2 years since he was added to the game and people don't even notice they can keep him alive 😭 #they don't know they don't need to kill him to save the gnomes and they don't know he can leave the absolute #everything in the game wants to kill him #to the rescue! helping people save blorbo since day 1 #Bg3 mine #Nere #My post #My posts #bg3 #about me #baldur's gate 3 #funny #text post #victorian child #textposts #grymforge

I just want to say, bringing down another character/ship to praise your favorite one, doesn't make me agreeing with you, it makes me hate the favorite character/ship of yours and despise your childish personality... just saying :)

#Like you're so upset that the other character/ship is so popular and well loved (for a reason btw) #And you can't even bear to see it #So you bring that character/ship down to bold another one? #And expect me nodding my head and agree with you? #and it's literally a lie... #just want you to know real people sympathies with these characters and it's written from irl people so your shaming them #but your brain is so tiny you can even understand #I'm literally talking about all the characters/ships in this fkn fandom #And it doesn't help the fact that more than half of this fandom is +30 years old #shame on all of you #rhysand #lucien vanserra #nesta archeron #These three supposed “fans” are tiring me #Specially Nesta and Lucien #You're not helping me to like these character #You're making me hate them #And Rhysand's tag is all full of hating Nesta #Just stop #Before joining the fandom I loved all the characters #But now... #This fandom is so fkn rotten #It's disgusting #fandom fuckery #fandom bs #anti acotar fandom #And idk why tumblr thinks I enjoy these kind of posts #Like I don't want to filter Lucien's tag!!

Free matsuhana fic concept: the team places mistletoe everywhere in a sweet but misguided effort to get them together, not knowing that they've already been dating for months. They still go along with it, wondering how many heated make out sessions it will take for them to catch on, since the double dates with iwaoi (who actually aren't together yet) haven't been evidence enough

#Matsuhana #Hanamatsu #hanamaki takahiro #Matsukawa issei #Haikyuu #Just posting this here instead of my sideblog for max visibility. Don't mind me #I haven't thought about them in AGES yet this was the first thing on my mind upon waking up this morning #Why a mistletoe fic? In the middle of june? I have no fucking clue #Maybe my subconscious is already craving the cold idk #Anyway this is up for grabs #I've never written hq fics and it's been years since I last read hq ff so I wouldn't know where to begin #But this has chaotic potential and it would be a shame not to let it roam free in the fandom. Hopefully someone can make this justice #Bonus: it's Kyoutani who figures it out the one time he actually shows up to practice #Despite not having seen the senpai in months #Because we all know kyoutani would never go along with the team's bs #Ok that last one is optional. No need to include it. But it made me laugh #Gosh I miss my seijoh children

Something that's still so crazy to me about this is how intentionally they misinterpreted my point. They used tags that weren't mine but they cropped it in a specific way to frame it as part of my original point. Now, I don't see anything wrong with these tags, but I can guarantee they went looking for tags that they knew would get them a bigger reaction. They had an issue with my post but didn't have any valid reason to be angry at it, so they decided to ignore the point I actually made. Their DNI list tells me exactly why they got so mad at my post though.

A hit dog will holler and they didn't like their behavior being called out for what it is. They're exactly the kind of stansa who hates the idea of Arya and Dany getting along and tries to frame fans of the two as somehow misogynistic. Their entire blog proved my point and they went even further by turning this into an opportunity to put down Dany and Arya, even though my original post said nothing about Sansa. They want to be in the "right" so badly but they don't want to give up unfairly hating characters and harassing their fans. Hilarious. Still, this whole thing is really a nice metaphor for how they read the books; taking things out of context and reframing them to fit their narrative.

#anti sansa stans #anti arya bs #anti daenerys bs #fandom nonsense #still waiting on actually proof that Arya + Dany stans hate on other female characters and their fans #they really thought they gagged me when all they did was prove my point #and then they were too scared to even interact with me so they had to screenshot and repost with my username still visible what a loser #lol I just know they wanted to get me harassed but literally wtf are they going to say? shit talk Arya and Dany stans and prove my point?? #they got mad at me for pointing out how they act like you can't make this shit up

I love seeing others self insert oc's so much because if you and others start thinking about how your and others simple existence changes the story around you and affects the characters within it is so beautiful.

Even if the changes are minimal like for example being a another small enemy or friendly npc, your existence, your dialog your thoughts and skillset still affect the fictional world around you and yourself to a small or bigger degree. I think it makes the imagined world which we all love so much a bit less fictional and makes us think and grow.

And who knows? Maybe your simple character design of an old self insert oc may become the next main Character, in your own with passion and love fueled art/comic/writing/game/film project.

Another sxf vs bd fandom war in Twitter 🙄 Worse, it seems like a lot of sxf fans and bd fans can't stop being homophobic or misogynistic in their takes. Seriously, just rest this shit already and enjoy both shows.

#spy x family #buddy daddies #i thought we are just one big found family fandom #kazuki rei and loid are all attractive without having to fit in with your toxic masculinity bs #yor forger is not just some ditzy school girl and very much a character on her own #so much yor slander when this woman carries sxf s2 i swear #bd is more than just 'gay sxf' #you can prefer one over the other while not putting the other one down you know #i'm tired of this discourse but i keep seeing them in my tl #don't even get me started on that anya vs miri takes #besides of the obvious different found family takes between the two they also differ in their format #like bd is meant to be a single season 12 episode series (afaik) so developments will be more blatant and faster #meanwhile sxf is meant to be a slowburn so every progress and emotional growth will be more subtle and gradual #a lot of people really missed the point and setup of these shows and i felt like it is a disservice to both #anime #found family #twitter

yeah the wheelers aren't abusive but like... idk. some of the takes i'm reading seem dismissive of the fact that a lot of mike's issues do stem from his family. that doesn't make ted & karen monsters (ted is literally the equivalent of Just Some Guy) but that also doesn't mean mike's own shit is invalid.
