#why is this becoming a trend

[quillinhand]

if I had a nickel for every time I watch a kdrama and become rapidly obsessed with the imaginary relationship of side characters in the drama- who weren't interested canonically, have/had different partners, are not gay(as far as the writers know), have like two scenes together, and ultimately don't care that much about each other/ aren't onscreen much together- I wouldn't have much but it's really really weird that it has happened thrice.

#kdrama #extraordinary attorney woo #jung myeong seok #jang seung jun #crash landing on you #ri mu hyeok #jung man bok #unlock my boss #mapi unlock my boss #park in sung #kim seun ju #the last one might just be because i ship park sung woong with everyone but STILL #why is this becoming a trend #I might might not write something for these ships it's becoming a hard to ignore urge NGL

November 5, 2023 - If you know, you know. If you don't, log off now and save yourself.

It's been 16 years [x] since the WGA strike of 2007 set a chain of events that led to Castiel the angel saying he loved Dean Winchester and promptly dying exactly 13 years later on the night of November 5, 2020, nowadays known as the destielputinelection night.

It's been three years. For some, the night of November 5, 2020 has become no more than a blur of chaos, whilst for others, the memories of that day remain as vivid and raw as back then, even three years later.

It's time to make peace with the fact that there will be no peace. The ghost of destiel has not left and has contaminated the internet, going so far as to causing Supernatural to trend solely because of the use of the Destiel meme to convey the news [x] [x] [x].

Just this morning, it contributed to Putin trending on the hellsite alongside BBC Sherlock.

At this point we might as well just accept our fate.

#i'm waiting for the time this becomes a week-long celebration #why is supernatural trending #look. there's nothing i can say that hasn't been said already a number of times #so happy destiel to everyone that celebrates. and to everyone who watches in horror - i'm sorry #i'm but a humble messenger #spn #supernatural #destiel #deancas #nov 5th #can't wait for the next year considering yhat apprently the next US presidential election will be held on nov 5 #putin has a chance to do the funniest thing in the modern history

does near every single post-canon DE fic out there need to be tagged ‘Sober Harry Du Bois’? i’m getting so tired of it.

do i expect every single piece of fan content to have to fully delve into the often-depressing always-complex topic of addiction? not really. sometimes you just want to write/read a silly fluffy romance one-shot, whatever. i get it. but i think my issue is specifically with the fact that for nearly every sillyfluffy au out there, there almost must be a ‘sober harry du bois’ tag. and it does feel very slapped-on more often than not.

i think to me it is an unconscious statement that nothing *good* can ever happen to harry du bois until he is completely and permanently sober. before solving the next big case, he has to be sober. before quitting the force, he has to be sober. before falling in love with kim, he has to be sober. before accomplishing anything, starting any sort of recovery, making any life improvement, he must first be sober.

sobriety as a goal, as a journey, and honestly as a concept in of itself is not as cut and dry as so many people think it is. and i think it would serve a lot of people well if they did some introspection on the implications of how nearly every single post-canon fic that isn’t dealing directly with harry’s addiction have him as completely sober instead.

if the plot of the fic isn’t going to touch directly on harry’s substance use (and again, i’m not demanding that every single fic should), why does that mean that sober!harry must be the default?

i think i am just tired of reading a casefic, a smutty one-shot, a fantasy au, whatever, where it almost seems that before getting on with the plot, the author feels obligated to first assure us that the harry we’re reading about is a Sober Harry. it’s established with a couple lines in the exposition, probably about his improved appearance, a tag up top, and then never brought up again; a checkmarked box. like the societal image of An Addict has completely prevented people from being able to imagine a person just, continuing to live life, while still struggling with addiction.

life happens, with all of its backslides and achievements, mundanity and changes, to people with drug addictions just as much as people who don’t. is a post-canon harry who isn’t sober not worth writing about?

i think so. i think the game we all played thinks so too. in fact i think that sentiment is woven into the game’s very core. i just wish i saw that reflected in our fan content more.

#i really hope my point is understandable in that it isn’t that i think that stories where harry *does* become sober aren’t also valuable. #or that i want every post-canon harry to *not* be sober. #but rather questioning why there seems to be a subconcious necessity for harry to be sober to have kind things happen to him. #disco elysium #harry du bois #also obligatory because i am putting this in the main tag: #this isn’t a callout or vague on any one person/creator/group of people in particular #it’s more of a prompt to discussion on a very broad trend #one informed by insidious biases that live in all of us because we live in a society etc #that none of us are immune to but all of us have a responsibility to acknowledge #if there is goal to this post it’s to provoke introspection. not individual attacks #anyways i love quietly consuming fan content until something annoys me enough to make my own post about it #i do wish i Participated in fan communities more tbh especially this one i’m just shy lol #most of the time. #me talking

I recently found out that Native People in the American continent have their own name for it, which is Abya Yala.

Anyway, wouldn't it be nice if we started to support their right for self determination and freedom from the oppression of colonial rule? Wouldn't it be nice if we support the complete and immediate abolition of all colonizer countries, which are *checks notes* every single country in the American continent plus the island ones? Wouldn't it be nice if we started telling all the settlers, conquistadors and immigrants to Go Back To Where They Came From? Wouldn't it be nice if we started chanting in the streets and online for the cleansing of the continent from all non-Native people? Wait, that sounds kind of extreme, doesn't it? But what if it rhymed? Everyone knows that if it rhymes it's true and justified right? So maybe the American continent should be free, you know, maybe from shore to shore... no, no. From sea to sea, that's it! What a great cause! And great causes are worth fighting for by all means, right? Obviously, I do not support violence at all, but like wouldn't it be justified if Native People were to become violent in their fight for freedom? I mean, think of the history for a moment, what brought them to this moment? And could you blame them? After all, shouldn't freedom be fought for by all means necessary? Wouldn't you support their claim?

Anyway.

From Sea To Shiny Sea Abya Yala Will Be Free.

#wouldn't it be nice if this becomes a trend #this is a 100% a post against idiotic westerners that call jews colonizers in their ancestral homeland #and funny enough this is not against people who actually support the abolition of all colonizer countries in the world #you people are still antisemitic idiots who know nothing about jews or our history but at least you are consistent which i can respect #but like i also don't see you hopping on the first flight back to where you came from so what's stopping you darlings? #and just to be clear since i support every people's right for self determination including both the palestinians and the jewish people #i would support every single native nation's claim for independence #but unlike you self righteous westerners i actually don't support violence and not just when it's convenient for me #so this is both a joke and a hundred percent serious but like i said obviously sans the violence #i would support negotiations and reparations but never war #and i would never ever support terrorism #so why would you? #jumblr #jewish things #free abya yala #from sea to shiny sea abya yala will be free #abya yala #social issues #politics #us history #american history #history

I don't know if anyone has said this yet, but I had to get it out of my system after recent internet events.

If I had a nickel for every time when there's a dark puppet kid show concept presented in a show, video game(s) (series franchises), or an analog website series format, I would have four nickels. That's not a lot, but it's funny that it happened quadruple.

#don't hug me i’m scared #hello puppets #hello puppets midnight show #my friendly neighborhood #welcome home #seems like horror stories based on kid puppet shows are becoming a trend this year #there's even a ANALOG WEBSITE NOW!!! #guess it's coming full circle #if I missed something comment below #why did I write this at midnight?

What we have learned from Minecraft roleplaying these last three-four years (yes it's been that long):

If somebody wants to run for presidency, no they don't.

If somebody says you need a government, no you don't.

If somebody wants to stage a revolution, no they don't.

If that somebody is the same person, no they weren't.

You don't need politics in Minecraft for the love of god-when has it ever ended well??

#dsmp #qsmp #karmaland #'yeah i know what that is' #-I say having watched one stream #listen Karmaland V was literally the prime example of why we *don't* need any more presidents #no more elections #no nothing #just let us go back to our caveman roots #mainly inspired by qsmp forever #but y'know what i'm beginning to notice a trend #If you become an mcyt president through legal and moral means without going insane or becoming corrupted in the following days/months/years #Then you deserve to keep it #That's honestly a record #mcyt #mcyt has ruined me #so has american politics #qsmp forever #dsmp wilbur soot #dsmp schlatt #dsmp tubbo #k!Luzu #k!Quackity

being evaluated for adhd by having one of those full psych evals that last like two hours. scared frightened etc.... last time i took it i lied extensively bc i was 13 and thought they might tell my mommy if i said i had suicidal thoughts. and i still have a habit of lying to therapists bc i'm embarrassed......... AGH idk. what if i take it and they tell me that the reason im Like This is bc im genuinely just weird and shitty and not bc im mentally ill at all. SCARED

#which is dumb bc i have been formally diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses i dont think they can just take it back right????? #this is so stupid and cliche but what if i have been faking it........ all along........ Argh. #when i was in res i was put on adderall (bc the house psych just kind of experimented w meds LMFAO) and i had to go off them after like #two weeks bc it was affecting my appetite in a way i couldnt afford at the time lmao. but i do genuinely feel like it helped during that #time.... which is why i want to go on it again!!!! but im scared theyll just be like nah and i wont be able to take any of my meds anymore #is that crazy. am i being crazy rn. idk i truly do think most of my experiences w school and like. life could be explained by adhd and #when i was a kid they thought i had it but the two meds they tried didnt work for me so they just. kind of gave up #and i was really extremely unable to do school and graduated hs w an insanely low gpa and then dropped out of community college. LMAO. not #that people w adhd cant be good in school i just couldnt make myself do homework and couldnt listen in class bc i was too busy focusing on #listening. if that makes sense #IDK. idk. i know it's become like. a trend to have adhd is the issue and everything is being attributed to having it so im worried that ive #like. accidentally fallen in w that? even though ive thought i had it for forever and everyone has been like girl do you have this. IDK!!!! #idk. idkkkk im just like. genuinely scared. it's not the end of the world if im not diagnosed obviously but that means that #im just like this for no reason at all. and there's no way of helping it bc it's just the way i am. and i actually am just shitty n lazy. #epic. which incidentally is the proper name for how fucking long these tags are my bad. if you read this far sorry for being insane 👍

there’s been many times in the last few years when army was so divided i thought we’d never recover but none of those times hold a candle to what’s going on right now. genuinely there’s no coming back from the way these anti-boycott, anti-DOING-FUCKING-ANYTHING armys have been acting

#they dont lift a finger to help but accuse pro-boycott armys of being ‘useless’ even tho bds korea literally endorses the hybe boycott #there are so many ways to support the cause by sending emails trending hashtags sharing fundraisers sharing any information at all #if it was just not wanting to boycott bts’s music i completely understand that it’s your choice and its very low on the priority list anyway #but these ppl are harassing palestinian and pro-palestinian armys. reporting their accounts. reporting their online stores. doxxing them. #starting massive hate trains against them. accusing them of being antis trying to ‘infiltrate’ ‘real’ army spaces. #when they are just palestinian/pro-palestinian armys trying to find a safe space for themselves and being continually pushed out #and it makes me fucking sick to my stomach to see what this fandom has become #how is any of this real. how do these people claim to love bts when they’re so passionately against everything bts have ever stood for #twt is the only place to get real info and updates on the boycott but im so quickly reminded of why i left twt in the first place #aeron.txt

“lmm popscare” is so unoriginal y’all. write some new jokes. it’s just boring at this point.

#there's actual legit reasons for people to dislike him of course!! #just how there is with every celebrity #but at this point it's just copy and paste #while also spamming fandom tags with it #it's so unoriginal and tired #but then again when have these people ever been known for their originality #they just hop onto whatever train the internet has decided to run through someone and ride it far past the final stop #y'all claim to hate him but I also see y'all making every single thing he writes become a trend so... #hard for someone to be “untalented” when you eat up their work every time #sorry I'm annoyed and on my period #like I said you are WELL within your rights to not like him but its literally all the tag is rn #and some of us are mentally ill and need their parasocial relationship fueled #“why is he in everything?” uhhh idk prob bc you watch it every time and make his name trend with every project?? #I personally think it's because he's a talented actor but y'all clearly don't so...

unfortunately i think part of the reason why more recent art get less notes now than older ones is because people tend to leave likes instead of reblogs so it's harder for posts to circulate. i remember years ago the ratio between likes and reblogs were practically equal for the most part but now a posts with 3k notes may not have 1000 reblogs. makes me sad, really.

Oh trust me friend I'm very aware of this I joined this website back in 2012 when your notes looked like this

And now 10 years later your notes look like this

But even the difference in notes between now and 2020 is quite staggering and disheartening really

#Ask #Anon #I don't really understand why #I think maybe cringe culture had something to do with it #Maybe other social media becoming more popular and setting a trend #Maybe it's just bc there's less people on tumblr now #Which ever one it is its all very sad #I always try to reblog #But I'm only one person

look nothing but the best to these sort of people but I often see people get into mushing, acquire tons of dogs very quickly and then they commonly have accidental litters (or potentially purposeful...) on yearlings/very young dogs.

it is not cool.

#dogblr #dog mushing #like sorry i know that amongst mushing people health testing is not as common #but it is 1.) getting more common and it 2.) is getting more crucial as alaskans become more insulated into their own breed community #and gain 'breed' specific inherited diseases #even if a dog is from healthy lines tho in NO WAY is breeding a yearling dog...even if that dog may be male #okay at all #you have no idea how this dog will develop #multiple people i know this year have had litters on very young dogs both female and males and i'm not here for it in any regard #i know accidents happen and i'm fine with that however this is a trend i see happening too much in the mushing community #but also with the accidental type litters in new mushing kennels #this is WHY its good to build slowly and/or train with somebody that already maintains a decent size kennel #so you can work on management of intact dogs
