Sorry That You Think My Fictional Ship Is Illegal. I Actually Consulted A Fictional Lawyer About It And

"i'm tired of seeing-" use your filters.

"but there was an icky ship-!" use your filters.

"i don't like that tag-" use your filters.

don't like what you're seeing? use. your. filters.

hey, did you know that the world is a better place because of your creations and art and writing, no matter how niche or how many people see it

Me when the slideshow about toxic and dark themes has... *gulps and looks around nerviously* t-toxic and dark themes 😖😖😖

If people would understand that fictional characters are not real and can’t consent and are simply objects for us to play with, things would be so much better for everyone.

So mentioning the age of consent when we’re talking about fictional ships is just dumb.

i feel like antis are using the same tactics as homophobes to get more people to dislike proshippers

i've been seeing a lot of them saying that proshippers are groomers and that any attempt we make to be kind to them is just some sort of grooming tactic

and to me it just sounds exactly like hearing homophobes and transphobes saying that all trans people are going to groom your kids into being trans or all gay people are going to groom your children into being gay

its scary, and so stupid.

i understand that a lot of antis have this fear because they were groomed by a proshipper or they know someone who was, but it really frustrates me because there are going to be groomers everywhere on the internet, its like their hunting grounds.

yes some trans people are groomers, that does not make all trans people groomers.

yes some gay people are groomers, that does not make all gay people groomers.

and, yes some proshippers are groomers

that does not make all proshippers groomers.

The fact that kids nowadays want ao3 to be censored— guys. Guys. Where is your sense of adventure? When I was 12, and homeschooled, and had unlimited internet access on my second hand laptop, all I felt upon discovering ao3 was unmitigated joy. A whole platform where people can be fucking weird and post toe-curling novel-length diatribes about ANYTHING. How beautiful is that?

And then you, the reader, can just jump in and post your own weird shit? And people might comment just to say “nice job!” Or “where the fuck is the next chapter” on your 20k coffee shop FNAF AU? Bro. Them’s the little things that make the internet worth anything.

Ao3 is so beautiful. I love scrolling past indescribably disturbing descriptions. I love knowing they have a place to be posted. I love knowing that, should I feel the urge to indulge, I can do so with no repercussions.

Mi familia. Mis amigos. Por favor. Take a step back and be grateful that not every facet of creativity has been locked behind an algorithm.

Why do antis use the proship tag to complain? (I kind of understand that the anti is mentioning in the post but ughh) I'm literally scrolling through my feed and this kind of thing pops up- it's so annoying. If you're an anti, stay away from everything related to it, including the tags…

>be anti

>complain abt algorithm serving proship posts

>don't block proship tags

>dont block proshippers

>give proship posts engagement by commenting abuse

>complain more abt algorithm serving proship posts

???

something that proshippers do that i wish they didn’t: defend their shipping, hobbies or interests to people that demand them to. in what world is it ok to go up to a person irl who’s wearing idk? band shirt? and demand them to explain why they like that band.

alongside this, EXPLAINING YOUR TRAUMA TO THEM? NO. you have nothing to defend! you do not need a justification!

just delete the anon, delete their messages, report and block them. ❤️

Dear 15 y/o darkshipper who gets death threats from grown adults,

Please. PLEASE. Do NOT come out and tell people about your CSA/grooming trauma in an attempt to get people to understand you.

They will not care. They will use this new information against you, actually. The death threats will turn into "You probably liked what happened to you"... "I hope you get raped again"... and worse !

This moment will haunt you forever when you realize people online dont give a FUCKKK about victims
