I don't get it... like, fucked up as in fucked up(tm) or as in problematic? because ohhhh boy.

What's the point lol. The other day I saw other poll blog with a ''proshipers don't interact'' among other rude things on the bio. .... mind you, the polls were ship polls. Like?

i am genuinely so fucking tired of the antis and the purity culture and people who can't differentiate fiction from reality. i don't think this one is actually very anti or purity oriented at all (considering what it's about), but fandom in general has been so gd affected by it all that even fucking Sterek is considered a "problematic" ship by far too many people.

that same blog had another most fucked up ship tournament in February too, and they had Sterek in it back then too, and i'm just gonna add some of my own tags from my reblog of that here:

#there isn't even any propaganda as to why they're so fucked up #like they're competing against ships like Wincest and Hannigram #so we have these codependent Actual Brothers who are obsessed with each other #and we have this Serial Killer who gaslights and manipulates his bf and tries to frame him for murder and stabs him and plans to eat him #and then we have Sterek! where uh well Derek is a lil older than Stiles and Derek's family died so he's a bit sad i guess? #oh and yeah they don't always agree on everything either! #jeez so fucked up!

just. HOW. the fuck. does Sterek even come close to comparing to that? (and i say this as both a Wincest and a Hannigram shipper, i'm not dissing them at all, i'm just fucking flabbergasted x'D)

ANYWAY. i checked the blog for any sort of info about it, and all i could find (okay i maybe didn't look very hard) was an ask they got about it, copy pasting that one too:

ask:

Hi, are we voting for which fucked up pairing is worse? Or which fucked up pairing we like more? Or is everyone voting for whatever reason they like?

answer:

I do intend for the first reason, but I’m alright with the third one too haha

so yeah, idk. i mean, sure, i'd say both Stiles and Derek are pretty fucked up (though not much compared to other characters *looking at Wincest and Hannigram again*), what with their trauma etc, but the ship itself? no. just no.

but i have also been called a pedophile for shipping them (lets not get into how angry it makes me that people misuse that word so fucking badly), so it's gotta be "Problematic" right? *bangs head against wall*

okay, i've ranted enough, so to answer your question: fuck if i know *shrugs* x'D

#ask #anon #someone: *asks me a question*#me: *rambles incoherently for half an hour* anyway yeah idk #sorry x'D

Hellooo, I have a question! it's not related to TDJ, I was just curious if you are from any fandom (a singer/band/group fandom). You don't need to answer if you do not want!

I guess that depends on how you define "being from a fandom"? I'm a fan of a lot of singers/bands/groups, but I don't engage with the fandoms. Well, aside from the occasional reblogs from MVs and such, I guess? Nor do I take part in or consume the usual fandom content. I don't even watch interviews unless I have a really good reason to xD

So, based on that, I don't think I am from any fandoms?

Which I know sounds weird to some, but it's what works best for me. I prefer to just focus on the music itself because I have very little interest in getting to know the performers as people. Which some might argue limits my understanding of the music — since there might be deep, personal reasons for it — but it's just how I feel the most comfortable. I prefer to keep a certain distance between me and singers/idols/actors/authors etc. because I, personally, don't feel a need to know what goes on in the lives of these very real people. I just like the stuff they make :)

The only fandoms I'm in are those related to fictional media like movies, dramas, books etc., because that feels safer for me. I can obsess about a fictional character like it's my job, but I feel no such desire when it comes to real people. That's not to say I think it's wrong or weird for other people to do so — knock yourself out! I hope you have a lovely time! :D It's just not something I enjoy.

(Tbh, I'm often told that I'm the weird one? Like, a lot of people have questioned why I don't like to know more about the talented people whose content I consume because that seems to be the norm. But I guess I'm the exception that proves the rule ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

But, as mentioned, I'm a fan of a lot of things! Especially music! I've got a pretty hefty K-pop album collection at this point and have around 30 GB of music on my computer. But, even then, my focus is on the actual media itself and I rarely venture outside of that.

... well, this was a rather disappointing answer, wasn't it? Sorry about that x'D

#Amethystina Replies #Anonymous #Honestly #My main reason for keeping a distance from celebrities is because I don't like how easy it is for me to read people #That's not to say that I'm always right #But the reason why I write characters so well is because I observe so well #And can analyse what I see and write it down #And I don't want to accidentally do that to real people #It feels invasive to me #So I just avoid watching them as much as I can outside of the intended media xD #It's bad enough that I can't keep myself from doing it to the people in my surrounding #I don't need to add complete strangers too #Unless they're fictional I suppose #Then they're free game xD #And also keep me so preoccupied that I have less time to overanalyse my friends and family #Or myself #My brain is a curse as much as it's a gift sometimes

Meow there :3.

Since its nearing the end of the year and i am extra emotional I wanted to finally say thank you for pulling me into this fandom all these months ago. Cause as usual i completely forgot eurovision is a thing and only discovered käärijä cause he was trending for a while.

Decided to look at it, scrolled down, saw your art, something clicked and I decided to follow you and here i am now 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹. The last months were the best of my life, I rediscovered things i had buried forever thinking it was just not meant to be, started writing and drawing again after years of being unable and simply not enjoying it, I made a freaking plushie and the lil guy actually looks like him 🥹🥹🥹🥹.

I also baked cookies and made bracelets (two things i have never really done).

I went to a concert and wasnt miserable and lost. I met amazing people. This fandom is such a nice and lovely space with the kindest, most passionate and talented people 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛.

I made so many lovely friends, something i thought I was too old for. But it turns out i am not too old, there is no age limit to making friends, i can still make friends and the best is i can make even more friends 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹.

So absolutely thank you so freaking much, for your art catching my eye enough for me to stay and find this place and its people.

Have a wonderful slide into 2024 and thank you again 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

I cant await to see what 2024 will bring for me 💛💛💛🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

Having finally caught up with my reblog spam (not looking at my drafts x'D) I feel ready to respond to this message :D!! (I didn't want it to drown too much in reblogs x'D)

Meow to you as well :3

Wait ... are you serious :'D? Am I (or at least my silly fanart) one of the reasons why you are in the fandom :'3? That's so precious I didn't know that, thank you for sharing 🥹🥹

Even more so knowing (and reading here) how much joy the kääryleet has brought you (can relate) 😭So many cool things you've done this year, you can be proud :D!!

Heck nah, there's no age limit on happiness :'D

It's me thanking you for putting your love and trust in me and my art in the first place 🥹💚

Hope you had a good slide in 2024 and that the year will bring you even more amazing experiences ^V^ 💛💛💛

#gah jay you are so dang sweet I can't :'D #replies

For the Hate Thing, 3 and 10?

3. Any fandoms that don’t appeal to you?

Whenever I look at HH, HB or Encanto content I become very angry even if obviously I don't bully people for what they like so I just move on, but I HATE these franchises so much seeing them getting love and seeing characters I find loathable be turned into cutie blorbos makes my blood boil. Also whenever I look from a distance at the TOH because it never interested me (andthemorepeoplepraiseittoberepresentativeasitssolequalitythelessIwanttowatchit) and SU and ML because I used to love them but they played with my feelings and went a way I really hated so I am bitter but torn with good memories. Also as much as I LOVE TDC and ATLA and do love fandom content from it I sadly am a bit cold towards their fandoms in general. TDC because is unfortunately became very toxic with the biggest number of bad personal meetings in a fandom I ever had with popular self victimizing whiners who preached to their cult followers how me and others were evil for disagreeing, and ATLA because I hate how most of its fans are super snobbish about their franchise they consider to be the best ever and are in denial about how ATLA is mostly good solely for its script writers whereas its 2 creators can't weite for shit and when they do like the comics and LoK it sucks ass but they still praise it because it has a pretty package and feel superior by comparing it with other franchise that have nothing to do with it except the title which is already an old pre-existing word

10. Any fandom you’re ashamed of being in?

HM/PM. OK SO I AM PLAYING WITH WORDS, IT IS NOT ABOUT HATE I JUST NEEDED TO VENT ONE THING ABOUT MYSELF. Ok so not ashamed per say, and not toward it, no no this fandom is very healthy for now, fun, funny, neither too popular nor too obscure, it has the uniqueness to have several lores/canons so you are allowed to make up your own picking elements from here and there, in short it's a haven for imagination to the point it was one of my first Tumblr fandoms and my very first followers was a HM related blog (thank you @asktheghosthost I never forgot you I just never fekt brave enough to start a conversation >.>). No, no I feel ashamed because of MYSELF in that fandom X'D As a post I reblogged yesterday rightfully pointed out, despite being about murders and suicide this fandom is very pure with hardly any swear, nsfw content and risky jokes. Yet EVERY SINCE I joined that fandom I have made steam headcanon posts, sex jokes and sus fanart with words that don't hold back (AND I CONSIDER DRAWING SHIPPY NSFW) as well as recently a very dark HC of the Phantom feeling incestuous lust for his own daughter. I act super differently from most of the fandom to the point I had been banned from the DA fanclub oncr for having posted a shitpost of Ezra pointing at a hole on my piece of paper saying "I made that hole with my dick" and got me back because I apologized and didn't know that would be forbidden XD No really I just have a risky sense of humor and am kind of a perv for almost every fandom I am in, and if ghosts even can still eat, drink, sleep and other stuff they absolutely don't need to do anymore just because they want to, why not fuck ? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND... As I had said, fans base themselves on different canons mixed in with their own ideas to make their fanons, so do I. But mine strays so far from several canon elements and other general ideas fans share that sometimes I feel like I am a fraud x') I HC stuff nobody HCs : Master Gracey is Emily's father, Constance is her aunt and never owned the Mansion, most of the characters died on the same night of 1877 after a curse from unknwon sources, I use names nobody uses... We are allowed to (like in all fandoms you can but here this one fandom IS made for that for how many lores it can hold) yet even if I have fun I sometimes feel ashamed when I see more "general lore friendly" fanons that essentially just changes a few thing from one canon and it makes me wonder if I truly love the Mansion for what it is then to their eyes then. Especially when I read remarks from the fanon wiki in the pages of my own comics that precise "once again Ben-the-hyena base herself on nothing". I know I may be reading too much into it, but it almost feels like other fans may think I "fanon it wrong" and I wonder if this is that side thoughr that had me contribute so little about this fandom these years

#ask #anon #moi #haunted mansion #phantom manor #asktheghosthost #avatar the last airbender #helluva boss #hazbin hotel #the owl house #encanto #strangely the cuphead show and Ducktales anger me and I hated their last 2 seasons and yet I am not mad seeing content and love it #steven universe #miraculous ladybug #the dark crystal #lol #fandom #fans don't look

Omg im staying on anon cuz these hoes are hell but i just saw your post about disliking like 60% of the sasuke fandom and i busted out laughing cuz im a huge sasuke stan but same. A lot of them are insufferable and toxic on a level that boggles the mind. I dont blame Sasuke I blame a decrease in braincells in this world. A lot of Naruto enjoyers get really accustomed to being spoon fed and I feel like for Sasuke stans that often unfortunately translates into (by proxy of her narrative being tied to sasuke) absorbing the misogyny written into Sakura’s character without a critical eye. It’s frustrating and it’s not the only issue in this crowd either 🥴 You and I are moots so now I feel like one of the good ones 🤣

<33333333333333 you're definitely one of the good ones!

I don't dive deep into that side of the fandom, but... y e a h there's a lot of misogyny floating around. 'I don't blame Sasuke I blame a decrease of braincells in the world' is exactly right skldjfgjskdfgksdfg

He's a great character but he doesn't have to be 'right' about everything all the time in order for people to love him... You can agree that Konoha ideally needed to have its whole ninja-production system dismantled, and not think him killing off the kage and setting up a worldwide Sasuke-dictatorship as a traumatised seventeen-year-old kid was legitimately the best option for anyone, himself included! And you can recognise that yeah, the fact that the status quo was reinstated for Boruto rather than severely disrupted is... an extremely dodgy narrative choice - but it's very odd to blame it on the fictional characters rather than looking at the wider context of why this decision was made by the writers!

But I can't control what other people do; I can only sigh and grumble and block without impunity X'D c'est la vie

I should say that - yeah, I engage with and reblog from the blogs of several Sasuke lovers because OBVIOUSLY he's an awesome character and a lot of his fans are really cool people. There's just a particular subset that makes me want to bash my head on a wall lmao

hi there! I was wondering why you don’t upload your fanart directly to tumblr (anymore). Your art is so cute!! I love the Bokuto sneezing one jfkfjekska

Hi, @rosecaffelatte! Ty for enjoying my art. Ahhhh, that comic was a fun one to draw. X'D

So, the short answer to your question is I'm wary of the stability of the ownership of the site. ;w; (A good article to read, which sums up a lot of my concerns bc it discusses the high turnover rate of top people in the company, can be found here from Mashable.)

When 2018 happened, I was an artist whose blogs got smacked by poorly coded algorithms. Yes, a few nsfw pieces got removed, but so did some completely sfw ones. So did some reblogged jewelry posts on my jewelry sideblog. That aside, I like having some say in where my posts go, esp my art; currently, pillowfort offers me that say with actual, true post deletion (if I ever felt like it) and truly awesome filtering that works.

That last point reminds me, too, that recent site changes have made it harder to find fandom content I both make and want to see, which is worrisome. :/ *sighs*

I'm not saying I'll never post art directly again on tumblr (esp as long as the threat of a porn company owning this beloved hellsite forever remains an impossibility--still can't believe that was a thing for a hot minute). But, for now, I'd prefer to post on my fort and share links here. I realize my traffic, art-wise, is near zero now, but sometimes people still want to see my art and enjoy what they see and reblog the links I provide, which I greatly appreciate. I do make art for me, for my friends, for the fandoms I love--and I post it to share, in the hopes of giving a little bit of that love to others who enjoy the same things I do. -w-

So I hope you continue to enjoy my content, old and new, and I hope, too, you have a wonderful day! <3

For the ship meme EstIce, AmeLiet, DenNor.

Thank you so much for these; sorry it's taken so long to answer this! (Hopefully this is the ship meme you meant; this was the one I reblogged near the time I got this X'D)

I put it under a readmore because the first one got long.

EstIce:

when I started shipping it if I did: This is a pairing I started shipping more recently than others in this ask. I think it was like...back in 2014 that I started shipping these two, though I didn't really think about them much other than 'ooh, they'd be a nice ship'. However, a few months ago, I started thinking about them as a ship again, and I ended up having tons of headcanons for their friendship (and a potential eventual romance). Especially after reading the 'Ice's Birthday' comic again. (Like...Eduard...why did you wink at him?? XD.)

my thoughts: I honestly think they'd work well together (as either close platonic friends, or romantically). Both are older teens** (in human age, I mean) dealing with past trauma (though I need to research more about Ice's before I can write about his more accurately). Also, both their families/close friends are in the same friend group (hooray for the NB8!), so it's natural they'd interact. Also, and this is more of a headcanon, I see them both as ace, so they'd relate to each other about that, too.

What makes me happy about them: They're two of my favorite characters!

What makes me sad about them: I see them as people who keep their emotions, especially negative emotions, bottled up. (Until they finally hit their breaking point and everything spills out, and it's not pretty.) I do see Ice reaching the point of tears a bit easier than Eduard. (Since I see Eduard having the opinion that if he [Ed himself, I mean X'D] cries, especially around others, he's showing weakness, and, due to past trauma, he absolutely doesn't want to show any sign of weakness. So if Eduard does cry around someone, he A. trusts the person completely, or B. is dealing with something so horrible that he just can't hold the tears back.)

things done in fanfic that annoys me: -deep breath- I am so sick of the 'Eduard-the-wannabe-Nor.dic' thing. I hate hate hate it, especially when I see it in fics. And ESPECIALLY when said fics either make Ed into a creepy stalker (umm, no? These are his friends, remember?? D:< ) or that the Nor.dics hate him/talk about him behind his back. This is the fastest way for me to backspace out of a fic featuring Eduard. -rant done-

things I look for in fanfic: Ed being close friends with the Nor.dics AND his fellow B.altics (NB8!), angst/hurt-comfort, Ed and Ice dealing with their trauma.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: For Eduard, other ships I like with him are: DenEst, EstLiet, FinEst, AmeEst EstMona (does anyone else ship this? I barely see it around, and while it seems like a crackpair, I think their personalities work well), EstLat* (*this one in the platonic sense, I mean, but I am still putting it on here because I like fics where they have a close bond) For Ice, other ships I like with him: IceLat (it is so rare but it works historically, and I think they'd get along well??), IceSey, IceLiech, HongIce (this last one I prefer platonically, but I am warming up to it as a romantic ship, too)

My happily ever after for them: Basically Ivan leaving them both the hell alone. :/

who is the big spoon/little spoon: I don't really see them cuddling like this, (esp. since I headcanon neither of them liking a lot of physical affection), but if they did: big spoon: Eduard, little spoon: Ice

what is their favorite non-romantic activity: sitting outside together, just silently enjoying nature. (And for something a little less old-man ish, I see them enjoying watching movies together, and both making snarky comments while watching like...a romcom Alfred recommended to them or something XD)

**I see many people aging the characters (esp. Ed) up, which is totally fine, and I definitely see why they do. However, I stick with the canon ages, and combine aspects of those human ages with a certain level of maturity, given the fact that they are immortal and centuries old. However, for characters whose human ages are sixteen and younger, such as Ice and especially Raivis, I tend to write their mentality skewing younger in general (though of course they have moments of maturity as well). Eduard is in a grey area, for me, because he’s caught between ‘teenager’ and ‘young adult’. Because of this, and due to his immortality, this is why I have no issue shipping him with Toris, Den, Alfred, or Fin, but I also ship him with Ice, too. (Though, the is why I really only ship Ed with Den and Fin in the canon nationverse. For human AUs, I lean towards him with Ice, Toris, or Alfred, since their age gap is only one year (for Ice) and two years (for Toris and Alfred)

...So I guess the ships with Eduard I lean more towards are EstIce, EstLiet, and EstMona, just to stay out of discourse.

And like, the N.ordics--minus Ice--weren't given human ages. Going by the pattern of the ages of characters who do have official ages, I headcanon them as like...twenty-one. So even then, there's only a four-year gap between Eduard and say...Den, at least with how I portray it, in the nation-verse.

(I know realistically they all should be older [and I have written them older in AUs], but at the same time, it is fascinating how these immortal beings are mostly like... early twenty-somethings. I feel like that's honestly a cool concept to explore, just delving into the minds of the characters. And then there are characters like poor Raivis, who is immortal, but forever a young teenager [and he, unlike some of the others--like Ludwig acts like a middle aged man even though he’s twenty XD--actually has the mentality of that age, too]. I can see that also weighing on Raivis’s mind, especially given how old L.atvia actually is as a country.)

Also...I headcanon Ed as ace, so any time I ship him with anyone, I mean it in a romantic way only. (So basically only light cuddles and maybe kisses. That's it.)

WOW, sorry, that got so long. Just wanted to explain my thought processes, here.

AmeLiet:

when I started shipping it if I did: A LOOONG time ago, all the way in Ye Olde 2010! (I think AmeLiet, SuFin, and GerIta were the first Hetalia ships I've shipped XD)

my thoughts: this is probably the ship I would consider my 'OTP'. I love it so much!

What makes me happy about them: Honestly, I love their dynamic, and how this is probably Toris's healthiest relationship option, in my opinion.

What makes me sad about them: If you take history into account, everything that happened to Toris from the 30s to the 90s. (Obviously, I know awful things happened previously to that, but this section is meant in regards to AmeLiet, since I don't think Alfred interacted with him in the 1700/1800s) And that Alfred, if he knew what was happening (and I can see him figuring it it out), couldn't do anything to stop it.

things done in fanfic that annoys me: Specifically in AmeLiet fics (though I have seen this in PoLiet fics and it annoys me there, too): When Toris's attraction to Natalya is amped up to 100 for ~the drama~. Do I see him having a crush on her at one point? Yeah. And I acknowledge that. But I feel like that would fade over time, especially if she kept hurting him like she does in canon.

things I look for in fanfic: ANGST and hurt-comfort, but also the characters having sweet moments, as well.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Other ships for Alfred I like: ...this is tough, I actually don't ship him with many characters. Hmm... Ameripan, maybe? Romerica (is that the ship with Alfred and Lovino?), AmeEst, AmeIta Other ships for Toris I like: PoLiet, EstLiet, LietUkr

My happily ever after for them: That they have a sweet romance, and, like any of my other ships with the B.altics, that Ivan leaves them alone.

who is the big spoon/little spoon: I don't see them really cuddling like this (esp. since I headcanon that Toris doesn't like having his back facing people due to trauma); I see them cuddling with Toris's face resting against Alfred's chest, with Alfred wrapping his arms around him. (Aka cuddling while facing each other). But if I had to pick for this question: Big spoon: Alfred, little spoon: Toris

what is their favorite non-romantic activity: Gardening, playing basketball, and cooking.

DenNor:

when I started shipping it if I did: Oh man, back in like 2011 (which was eleven years ago, WTF?? 0__0), I think. It's definitely one of the pairings I've been shipping for a long time. (Hints of it were even included in my first Hetalia fic 'The Number Three', XD)

my thoughts: Like FrUK, this is an opposites-attract pairing that I really like! I would definitely put it on my top ten ships for this series, I think. Even though their bantering is funny, there's also a lot of angst for them, too (in terms of fics), which of course is something I like. (Since I prefer angst/hurt-comfort over fluff)

What makes me happy about them: I love seeing how close they are in the canon comics!

What makes me sad about them: Sometimes I feel like their personalities clash a lot (plus there are times in history where stuff involving them would get rather dark).

things done in fanfic that annoys me: Den being abusive (especially when fics are set in modern day). I hate that :/

things I look for in fanfic: Angst/hurt-comfort (as usual, for me XD),

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: For Nor, other ships I like with him: SuNor, NorFin, Norpan, Other ships I like with Den: DenEst (ugh this one is a rarepair, unfortunately), DenFin, NedDen, DenBel (as in Bel.gium, I mean), and maaaybe DenSu (but only in modern day, for that one).

My happily ever after for them: They end up in a relationship in modern day that isn't wrecked by history.

who is the big spoon/little spoon: Big spoon: Den, little spoon: Nor

what is their favorite non-romantic activity: Anything outdoorsy, like fishing or cycling.

Well, I bought ad-free Tumblr.

I did it because I realized what I would prefer, if I could have my way (aside from just no one needing to pay for anything at all ever hahahahaha), then we'd all pay to subscribe to tumblr and it just wouldn't be free. It'd be like $1.99 per month and all of us would pay it and have no ads and be happy and whee.

Now that's not my serious opinion. I know, for one, what happens when you stick things behind a paywall. Tumblr might not be a scientific journal or reputable news source (lol) but a paywall still divides, still excludes, and that's antithetical to the entire experience of the Internet. And then, there would still be all the other social media sites that have ads and don't make you pay out of pocket, which would sail on with everyone who can't afford or doesn't want to afford tumblr.

Everyone paying a nice, neat, cheap monthly fee or discount annual fee and getting along together is what would work best for me, but it's not realistic for everyone. But, since I'm willing to do it, I thought, why haven't I? And I'll tell you why: Because idk about the rest of you, but much of tumblr really doesn't work that well for me. I have issues with posting, especially with paragraph breaks and trying to move bits of text around. I don't like that posts I reblogged in the past are hidden forever behind "Flagged for mature content" warnings and it's like. A picture of a cat. Not to mention broken music links and videos (which I guess aren't tumblr's fault, just makes me sad). I don't like how pictures seem to always end up sized differently and you have to open it just the right way to see it how you want. Not to mention a bunch of features tumblr used to have that I loved have gone away or been massively de-emphasized: support for music players on blogs, for example. (Yes I still have one but it's a pain the neck.) Polls are nice but I miss that. I also miss convenient free themes - they're still there of course! But finding one that has everything I want (no endless scrolling, clear navigation, visible icon and description, music player, etc) is also a pain and I just end up reusing the same old one I've been using since I joined and recoloring it lol.

So I'd be happier about paying for tumblr if the experience were just a touch cleaner, faster. Oh, and not forgetting about PC users xP I know lots of people use their phone, I do too, it's convenient - but PC is just easier. Well, maybe for teens who can type on their phones at 50 mph it's no big deal. But I love love love my keyboard.

But anyway I paid it so I get a year without ads. Honestly I thought about it and $40 a year is what, ten cents a day? I really don't mind that. I wasn't really bothered by ads anymore since they've been scaled back, but now I can be bothered by them even less, so yay. OTOH, it looks like the subscription auto-renews, which I HATE. If so, I hope they send a warning email a few days before.

Oh and you know what else helped. I did a few youtube searches recently, and wanted to tear out my own hair over how frustrating it was. I just want a list of videos that relate to the subject of my search, not interspersed between "things I've seen before," "random shorts," "things that are similar," "things totally different that Youtube wants to show me anyway." And same thing on Google, Amazon, anywhere. I'm just so sick of it. So I'll fucking pay for fucking tumblr x'D Just work and not be annoying alright!!

I find it amusing that the moment I paid, I got a pop-up asking me to pay more to give ad-free to someone else. I might be more amenable when my pocketbook isn't smarting anymore 9_9

But this was funniest of all:

OK, I can't imagine ever doing it, but I suppose there's someone out there who thinks highly enough of the stuff that gets blazed to decide they want to continue seeing it even after spending $40 x'D But who is paying the fee and choosing show all ads? Please, is there anyone? I want to see a cryptid for myself.

thank you so much for your gift aiwpjddkb when i saw it was you who was my secret lahjakääryleet i freaked out for a second before i even looked at it, simply because i was so happy that i got SO lucky to get such a great artist like you 🥹

and then, well, the drawing is just. crazy good. and it features all my favourite kcrew people. i’ve began loving häärijä even more during the calendar era, and lately i’ve also really turned into a jesse girly (especially because of the gift i made, it revolves around him and jere) so it was amazing to see him in there as well.

all in all, i love it and, as i said in my reblog of your post already, i love all the different versions as well, it feels like i got more than one gift 🤭 thank you so much for making this for me. happy holidays and merry christmas (if you celebrate <3)

Don't mind me being late to respond to this one :'D

It was my pleasure :D!!! Seeing your reaction to it made it even more of a joyful experience for me than it already was planing and drawing the boys being silly 🥹

Stoooop that's so precious tho :'D I don't think I've really experienced that sort of excitement from a santa before :'3 (except maybe when the host of the SS I participated in yesteryear knew they'd got me as their santa, whoops x'D) 💚❤️Mostly my santas are just happy to get a present (given that I've recently mostly been replacement santas because there was a time I myself would wait months to get my santa's present bc of unlucky draws in SS events - it at least happened thrice :'3) so I know the feeling of dissapointment having to wait that long :'D I think that is why I have been hesitant to enter SS events for everything but the replacement santa. (I've only been in one a friend hosted yesteryear and one for the fandom I was most active in at the time (Tales of Arcadia) hosted one in 2019 or 2020; I don't recall :'D). Yet after feeling this close with the kääryleet I knew without a doubt I wanted to participate because if nothing else I would love to spread the love to a community that has given me so much love and support these 7-8 months :'3 <333 And so no matter if I would end up being the unlucky sheep again with no gift (spoilers: I wasn't I got a lovely one from Eryka / @c28hunter - thank you so much again :'D <33 ) I would at leas thave made another kääryle happy. And that was enough for me :'3

Sorry for babbling on again x'D

Awwwn I am so glad to hear that and even more so that my choice of including Jesse is appreciated this much :'D (fun coincidence that I just landed within your jesse girly era :3)

Thank you as well for the gift of these lovely reaction messages and I hope you had a great christmas yourself (if you celebrate) and will have a lovely new year 💚❤️💚❤️

#flashing #(a bit of flashing lights)#all the love #💚❤️💚❤️💚❤️#replies #lahjakäärylet23
