#if youre rude than youre blocked

[midnightsunnyday]

So, I've been thinking over this, and I'm really not trying to come across as rude or offend anyone with my take, but...

What exactly does this fandom want from this game and its characters?

Do y'all want a game featuring good, uncomplicated human men who live by good, uncomplicated human standards and never do anything wrong but with tails, horns, and wings?

Or do y'all want a game about the literal lords of hell and whatever that may entail?

Because I can't be the only one who finds it ironic that the characters who act the most like demons are widely disliked, while the characters who act less like demons are widely liked, right? In a game about dating demons, being demonic or showing any kind of character flaw isn't attractive, and those of us who actually do enjoy the darker themes, when we do get them, are treated as having somehow failed morally for liking it. It makes no sense to me.

And this is in spite of so many posts from this fandom stating how they want their "demons to be demons." That they want complex and interesting characters. That they want to feel like they're in a realm surrounded by devils and engage with all the hostilities and angst and drama and blood that comes along with that, yet in the same breath, can't even handle characters like Lucifer, Belphegor, Asmodeus, Solomon, Simeon, and Diavolo. Characters who aren't exactly nice or fully transparent about their goals or actions. Characters who are a little or a lot fucked up. Characters who are gray at worse, but ultimately, show they are capable of being more. Even if poorly executed by the writers, they tried to show us, to some extent, exactly what we've been asking for. Now we rarely get events or chapters where the brothers so much as even swat a fly, and I can't help but blame that on the knee jerk reaction of the fandom to scream about anything less than flattering.

Which is why I can't help but wonder if Obey Me! Nightbringer does happen to touch on darker themes and characterization, than I can only imagine how well the fandom will handle any of it (my guess is poorly).

Feel free to leave a comment. As I'd really like to have some more opinions on this.

#obey me #obey me shall we date #obey me! #obey me! swd #obey me! shall we date? #also as a warning some of the comments on this post may be triggering for some #but i ask that you please do not comment on this post projecting your emotions onto others #i also ask that if you're unable to engage with this post or others' comments critically than by all means make your own #otherwise i can and will block you #not trying to be rude here but im not having it #you will not harass or insult anyone on this post because they dont agree with you #i also feel i should note that this doesnt mean you have to like any of these characters #just that its strange that people throw fits over them despite claiming to want darker content #and then also becoming upset when we do get darker content which leads to having none or little at all

#Can't believe I even have to say this but unfriendly reminder! #if you reblog my shit just to be rude in the tags expect to be blocked! #like literally i dont give a shit about trolls antis whatever. online people will be online ppl whatever #but people being needlessly rude about strangers' art boils my blood #whether its my own or anyone else's #you do know that artists see your tags when you reblog our posts right? #you're not yelling in an echo chamber with your buddies. #if you wanna make fun of my art in private with your friends i literally don't care nor can i stop you #but for god's sake learn some basic fucking decency #signed: an artist very tired of seeing how needlessly rude and cruel younger people are about art in this day and age #it's not fucking cool to clown on someone's art/style to their faces and if you think it is you need to be taught a harsh lesson #also social media is way more public than you think it is #learn to use fucking gc's and dm's people #don't you have friends you can yap to

#i will not be a hater i will not be a hater i will not be a hater i w #i will block and move on #why do people get so pressed about *headcanons* #is it so hard to accept that other people find comfort in headcanons different from your own? why do you have to be so hateful? #what good does that do anyone? #just ignore/mute/block and move on what do you possibly get out of trying to tear down others for seeing a character differently than you #none of this is real #this is in reference to someone being upset that there are people who hc john as a trans man. like listen. i love june. shes my everything #but why would i insist that only *i* can say what this character really is? and everyone else is not only wrong but also stupid #its so needlessly confrontational and rude #some people are so annoying

Guys how did we cycle back to mean-spirited or passive-aggressive comments on fanworks not only being normalized but also as something people should accept lying down for literally any reason? If I wanted unnecessary concrit, I’d go read passive aggressive sticky notes left on the office fridge. It is rude to randomly critique or downright insult someone’s hard work done out of love for a fandom, actually!

#saw another post about it in p5 fandom and I’m so frustrated and sad #it IS easy to be kind actually! trying to say it’s not will only excuse bad behavior and fan the flames idgaf #it only stirs up resentment. more than one of my friends has been hospitalized for this!! even in this fandom! #I self admitted during tales fandom for this crap please don’t make this common practice to be randomly mean #stop. I’m so done. what happened to don’t like don’t read #if you’re gonna be rude don’t get mad when fans have you blocked #hell I’ve started blocking even if it’s about a ship I don’t like. it’s not cool! #I’m just so tired of people even within the same shipping spheres acting like this #why is it my friends’ fault if they literally get hospitalized. are you ok???? maybe consider your impact instead of blaming them #no one has to put up with callousness but it’s impossible to change people’s minds I guess #I’m so tired. I’m so tired #venting done but I’m so sad

just saw someone recycling ye olde "X character doesn't read as Y identity to me, someone who doesn't & has never held that identity & thus am not as intimately familiar with mannerisms, tropes & characterizations that are typically associated with Y identity. There is no evidence for X being Y and you guys are acting insane."

like. do you understand that you are using the EXACT SAME excuse that other people are using to shit on YOUR headcanon that you're so attatched too because it has so much evidence?

did it ever cross your mind that it would probably be harder for you, person who isn't X, to pick up on subtler tropes & identifiers of X that you've never experienced because you aren't X?

like you get how it sounds like you're shitting on other wueer people?

#blocking another god damn fantasy high account that i really liked #because when people say 'theres no evidence for your headcanon' and theyre wrong its bad and tbeyre erasing underrepresented identities #but when YOU say 'theres no evidence for this' you are good and correct and the rest of us are just stupid weirdos #like oh my fucking god bro #if i see one more person who isnt fucking gay say 'erm actually fabian cant be gay he liked girls' im gonna lose it #gay men also experience comphet! #and it's not because he's 'effeminate' #because he really isn't THAT effeminate or flamboyant #he dances and he talks like a rich boy and those are the only two things i can think lf #that make him seem 'effeminate' #but like. dude rides a motorcycle from hell. he fights with a sword and plays football #he punched someone on the first day of school & routinely punches and gets punched by his friends #like. fabian is wildly more stereotypically masculine than he is feminine #most of us think Fabian is gay because up until he took interest in Mazey #he had exclusively expressed interest in girls that were unavailable or unobtainable #his 'type' was literally toxic and/or unavailable women #which SCREAMS comphet to anyone who has fucking experienced it before #'yeah i love women but only the ones i cant have amirite lads' #'classic completely heterosexual man behavior' #anyway #i think its incredibly rude to take people seeing their lived experiences in a character and say 'youre insane bc i dont see it' #especially when YOU YOURSELF have a headcanon that a huge chunk of people cannot understand fully but accept anyway because they get it #because they understand seeing yourself in a character and how important that can be #unlike you #vagueposting #me when i vague for the first time in like 3 years

(long negative rant, be aware)

I think i'm starting to pinpoint one of the biggest reasons I can't really connect with the plot of botw and totk anymore 😫 and it's because I'm really tired of the "peaceful world whose entire source of conflict can all be pinned into a single, cartooningly evil individual/organization" trope

I'm rewatching some fire emblem playthroughs, another series who relies on that plot narrative too much, and it's exhausting to me 🫠 I thought that totk was a step down from botw plot wise, but it's really Nintendo's incapability and refusal to evolve and to make stories more complex than bog standard "evil always falls and light destroys darkness" kinda stories

#having watched a playthrough of revelations was eye opening lol #because that's an entire game/route who undoes all depth the story might have had just to introduce a big bad it can pins the blame upon #and that was the first moment i went 'ah this is a pet peeve of mine isn't it' #and like #fuck i don't care if you keep doing this to series like pokemon or mario #but you can't make a story on the scale of stuff like fire emblem or zelda where that's all it boils down to and expect me to stay invested #it doesn't help that them wanting to simplify everything also killed paper mario #which was one of my favorite series of all times #but at this point I can't even say it anymore because the amount of games i hate of the series outweight the amount of ones i love #and i that combined with everything nintendo has been doing #i'm just kinda done with them and their games #and hell i quoted pokemon a few tags ago but sumo and black & white had great stories #and again in sumo's case they just undid all the depth the story had in a later game #and they don't even pretend pokemon now is anything but a money printing machine for them #...also i fully realize that this might attract negativity considering i'm naming several series with giant rabbid fandoms #and if you're one of the people who might be angered at this #just don't waste your time and do something better than engaging with this post #bothering to engage with this post in a rude way will earn you nothing but a block #also i'm not saying fates had much depth to begin with just that they went and destroyed whatever depth there might've been there

[mudskip-muses]

hey just a psa if youve ever sent someone hate over their interpretation of a character unfollow/block me right the fuck now it is So unnecessary to do no matter how much you disagree with someone literally just block them its not fucking hard

#there is never a good reason to be rude to someone over fucking fictional characters #not to mention that telling someone theyre wrong or you think theyre 'bad' or whatever does literally nothing #other than make someone feel shitty when you could have just fucking ignored them #remember that nice little saying 'be nice to everyone because you dont know what theyre going through' #do you reeeaaaalllly wanna be the guy that makes someones day worse because you personally dont agree with what they think #about a bunch of Fucking Pixels and shit we all enjoy as a hobby #to escape how awful the world is??? #just be fucking nice why is that so difficult oh my fucking god #sorry skippys in a Mood but also #if you dont like it #Block Me : ) #curate your own damn experience online instead of expecting people to do it for you ffs #ooc #vent

my heart genuinely goes out to every black woman and woman adjacent black person who's hurt by episode 7 like i was by zheng being screwed over*. white dude dumly outsmarting zheng is hurting me because she's the sole character that looks remotely like me. Seeing spanish jackie's bar exploded and that it implies she was foolish enough to accept a fucking grandfather clock from someone she cut the nose off of can't be the best feeling.

Idc if the next episode "fixes" things. The statement has been made and the betrayal has been commited. Things can be mended but it sucks cus for once i let my guard down. I god forbid felt safe. I guess that teaches me a lesson.

"But that was just it - hate was exactly the right word. Hate is a force of attraction. Hate is just love with its back turned." -Terry pratchett

That is where i'm left with this show at this current time. No i will not be taking constructive criticism from white people on this. Only voicing this so that anyone reading and is currently feeling isolated, doesn't feel alone. Cus i don't think many people will point this out.

And i swear to fucking god if any of you white saviour fucks try to twist my pain here into justifying sending hate to the writers or actors then you will get the most biting letter i am able to compose from me. Don't you fucking dare take my pain and try to use it just to get your hateful rocks off.

#ofmd #i am not black i just love olu/ctx for my pfp #but spanish jackie is the only rep black women have in this show so doing her dirty sends a message dude. whether you intend it or not #and why include such an important chinese woman if you're only gonna have her repeatedly get screwed over when she historically didn't get #screwed over once #i swear to god if anyone goes “it's not historically accurate” to excuse woc getting screwed over as if that's not a daily fucking reality #then you will be blocked and reported #not spoiler tagging this on purpose and not warning this on purpose. feel free to block me if you're a victim of this but if you're not a #victim/survivor of racism but wanna trigger warn racism cus it's “hard” for you then please block me as well #your energy is rancid in that case #ofmd essay #i guess #when i said i'm bad at essays i meant it/lh #the reason i'm putting this many caveats is because i've been on the internet for long fucking enough to see all this shit go down #it won't change that shit will go down #but i'd rather be able to just block than try to argue #also fine to reblog as long as you don't try to turn it into a crusade or a call to fucking hate actual people or to try and dehumanise poc #by acting like we're children incapable of defending ourselves or who need protecting #that's not activism either #it's just rude and a micro-agression

"Everyone wants mean lesbians until they actually get one 🙄" Now this might confuse and surprise you, but there are such concepts like "'mean lesbian' does not mean 'lesbian who is an asshole to everyone'" and "people dislike it when you are a self centered asshole"

#''ohh but someone like susie deltarune-'' #she started as a lesbian who's an asshole to everyone #but then turned into sarcastic kinda rude jaded lesbian #which is generally what people mean when they talk about mean lesbians #when people say they want more mean lesbians #they mean that they want lesbians who are jaded and snarky and sarcastic #they are not saying being a lesbian gives you a pass to be the worst to be around #like bro being jaded and traumatized and bitter doesn't mean you can talk over everyone and then get mad when they push back on that #go to the server that's supposedly dedicated to shipping that's actually just ''let's talk about how COOL this person is'' #''if they make art let's SHOWER IT IN LOVE (if others make art let's give it like one or two comments lol)'' #''if they post a headcanon THE CONVERSATION IS ALL ABOUT THEM AND LET'S IGNORE EVERYONE ELSE'' #bro you are worshipped like a fucking god in every server i have seen you in #shut the fuck up and stop being a bitter asshole who talks over everyone and gets worshipped for it #vague #/nbh #since she blocked me lol #good fucking riddance please learn that being a lover of things is better than being a hater #''oh if you get talked over just drown it out in your love'' learn to do that yourself lol #you have ambient ''wants the world to fucking burn'' energy #i don't care if you're traumatized that doesn't give you a pass to be a self centered asshole to everyone #''haha here's a funny meme i made'' ''HE WOULD NOT FUCKING SAY THAT ARE YOU KIDDING'' #<- actual interaction i had with her. when she knew about my insecurities around mischaracterization. #which was followed by everyone as always going along with her #until i was like ''hi! that makes me feel shitty!'' #i think she blocked me after that lol #OH MY GOD #SHE DID #BROOOOO #''HI. PLEASE DON'T DO THIS THING THAT MAKES ME FEEL SHITTY. I'VE TALKED ABOUT MY INSECURITIES AROUND CHARACTERIZATION. PLEASE DON'T.'' #[GETS BLOCKED]

can people learn that just because others have different opinions than them they don’t have to be a dick to them?? i can see your tags and you know what?? zutara is basic be bitter about it to the wall and not me it’s not my fault

#like god forbid i have different tastes than someone #it’s my poll i can add who i want #also i have seen atla when it came out originally and many more times #and you can look in the bio for my age if you really cared #but you’d rather waste your energy on being an asshole i guess #like i just don’t get people like that why you so rude bro #i blocked them don’t look for them or anything like that it’s alright #i just?!?!? this is a poll it’s not that deep why are you beefing #make your own <3

Apparently they are knocking down the derelict house next to ours this week! APPARENTLY IT IS FULL OF RATS.

ALSO COCKROACHES.

I am told they will be fleeing the wreckage as off a sinking ship.

#Apparently this is the source of the mouse problem we have had this year #it seems very unneighborly to pick up and leave #and have your house knocked down #without putting out poison first #like please commit terrible sins against rodentkind over there rather than making an entire block of neighbors deal with it? #rude

// probably best to stop answering rude or provoking anons guys...

#// i understand wanting to answer anons that are genuinely curious or trying to be helpful #but if the asks read as meanspirited or uncomfortable in any way it's best to simply delete them #cuz if they're hiding behind anon and sending awful stuff it's 100% cuz they wanna stir shit and get reactions #so it's best to delete them and let em check your blog only to realize they've been met with no response at all lolol. #it won't stop them from being sent unless u turn anon off or manage to block them but they won't be getting the satisfaction of a reply. #saying this cause Holy Shit do anons in the sonic rpc not have anything better to do than send rude as fuck asks all the time ?? #been radio silent here cause metal's muse is low atm but if u guys need to vent about stuff my inbox / ims are open #anyways.... -sigh- I miss my wife Tails.

did I SERIOUSLY get called an “absolute walnut” from a tumblr checkmark blog. AIEJGKWJGKDNGM. if I saw sainamoonshine irl I would maul their ableist condescending ass within an inch of their life. not worth it to fight with them bc they clearly don’t care about anyone else’s perspective but jesus fucking CHRIST what a piss poor refutation of me calling them ableist. And in three paragraphs no less!

#I knew it was going to be bad when that serious reply started with action asterisks LMAO #deliberately misinterpreting what I meant by ‘alt text is not for jokes’ too. bitch you KNOW I didn’t mean it that way. die #sainamoonshine is having an absolute TANTRUM that people wanted. a full ID?? #and someone asked for one more than once???? and then you just unload on someone literally just asking for full ID. #their defense isn’t even good 💀 it didn't NEED to be explained it was just for me I didn't think people would want all the WiNdoW dReSsiNg' #what so only people who can see the image without accessibility readers can get the full context?? #so the ppl relying on screen readers don’t get to see the behavior you’re talking about in your caption?? that’s just for the 20/20s?? #the condescending pedantic ass way they did that. I KNOW I shouldn’t reply further but ohhh boy do I want to lol #the violence in my chest when ppl are so rudely and proudly ableist all while thinking they’re not. I think Id genuinely scar them for life #the other reason I’m not gonna do this is because catgirlcowboy was just asking for a fucking ID not tumblr drama #and I KNOW they’d get caught up in it #blogs like that love to make their messes as big and loud as possible #speaking of which I am so sorry an ugly ass double checkmark blog acted out at you for wanting accessibility catgirlcowboy. holy fuck #also I’m never blocking a motherfucker who clearly doesn’t like me but is asking ME to block them lmao #why don’t you do it you little spineless cunt?? no?? won’t do it?? can’t muster up the courage?? too bad then! #I’ll just filter their name out and never actively block them LMAO
