This Will Never Not Be Funny

i'm aware fandom has always been filled with intense arguments and was never a happy fluffy paradise, but there was etiquette that just feels like it has disappeared. people have really abandoned those unspoken rules of fandom in favour of petty drama and it's extremely frustrating.

if you want some silly drama read a ku erotica book or watch a soap opera. why would you actively engage in fandom content just to make people angry? the worst part is they tag wrong on purpose because it's not about loving x inflammatory ship or x inflammatory character, it's just about pissing people off.

and it's deeply obvious who does this because they may think they're being subtle but there is a frankly embarrassing amount of "oh i don't care about your opinion! look how much i don't care! (but i'm gonna refresh my blog every ten seconds until i see an angry comment or reblog)" energy coming from these posts.

not to sound like an old fart, but i miss the old days where the biggest drama in fandoms were ship wars that were frankly easy to avoid by blocking tags and wether or not pidge from voltron was trans.

hey op come here for a second

I think the downright most horrific and brutal detail in the show is that Kilgharrah actually used Merlin to make sure Arthur's death happened with the pretence of protecting him

these fucking paris scenes....

i love valec i want so much more content about him

and if i said i'm still pulling for the izzy is valentine's daughter theory

Are you that blog that used to post alot about sjm books but doesn’t anymore?

that would be me 😅

i pulled away from the fandom as a whole because i genuinely cannot stand sjm, her books, or the vast majority of her fandom. i got sick of the toxic (for lack of a better word) interactions in every corner of the fandom, the crap writing, and just in general the woman herself. also, i didn't like the way i acted when i acted within the space, so really the overall best choice was to simply remove myself from it.

i'm much happier with my tsc/anime content now :)

sebastian morgenstern is actually the best villain ever because he makes me a devastating combination of sad and angry

james is CARRYING chain of thorns fr

i used to separate them distinctly in my mind but this reread is making me kind of unable to do that..

i gotta clarify first that i think sebastian needs to be punished for what he did. i don't think any of what i'm about to say absolves him of anything he's done.

that being said, i think sebastian was so tragically doomed by the narrative that he never had a choice but to make the choices he did. he never had a chance to be anything else because of valentine and jocelyn (although jocelyn to a far lesser extent than valentine). every step of his existence from conception to death is stripped of agency. every choice he makes is done in the shadows of valentine stripping away his humanity and mercilessly abusing him until he's a perfect weapon. and then the bastard has the nerve to be ashamed of what he created.

i just wish sebastian had gotten a fucking chance to be anything other than jocelyn's shame and valentine's weapon.
