Liam From One Direction Died Today.

This is a hot take on threads. I almost got run off the site for it. Lol

If you clicked on and read a fanfiction that had tags or a description that upset you and you were upset by it, that's your responsibility, not the author's responsibility.

If you were reading a fanfiction and you got to an unexpected part that disturbed you and you kept reading after you were disturbed, that was your choice and your responsibility, not the author's.

No one is forcing you to read fanfiction that upsets you. The back button is your friend.

If you are reading a piece of fanfiction it's because it interests you. Horrified fascination counts as interest. No fanfiction is holding you hostage and forcing you to read it.

Here’s some casting decisions that either were popular or could have been made. Hypothetical yes but more to the point point of over 50 and still talented enough for the role.

Chiwetel Ejiofor is an exceptional actor and would have fit the bill perfectly.

Idris Elba is vastly acclaimed and would fit as well. His previous work on the BBC would put him as a good candidate. Though a bit sad I will admit. I have wanted him to play the doctor since it was announced 13 would regenerate and others expressed interest in that idea. Now I don’t believe it will ever happen.

Tilda Swinton is extremely talented and can crush any role. She does well portraying powerful women.

Helena Carter is a great actress and knows how to perform authoritative, exceptional roles.

I’m sure the original post and this one will be well received. Maturely too. Because the doctor who fandom is known to be mature.

Saw a post on IG reels recently that said “what to do when narcissistic people attack!” And the comments were just a fucking mess. Apparently anyone who has slightly criticized you is a narcissistic person. 🤔 Also anyone who has narcissism that is trying to critique your art is just trying to manipulate you. 🤔 like huh?!

It’s very unfortunate that there’s a section of the internet that believe this behavior is normal and justified. No matter what you do you’re beholden to a permanent unpayable penance to them. It’s a disgusting thing to do and expect of another person.

One part of being subjected to long term online harassment is that your abusers expect you to conduct yourself with some sort of higher honor, like a social media varian of "You go high, we go low."

"You can't copyright strike videos that steal from you to profit off you!"

"You can't mass flag harassment!"

"You can't call your stalkers horrible names!"

But like... why?

Why shouldn't I do all of that? You're going to act like I'm a monster and subject me to horrible abuse no matter what I do. You will literally never stop. You're already lying about me and you expect me to believe that I have the power to make you stop by capitulating to your demands? I could be on my best behaviour for the next 20 years and you'll still be doing this shit.

So what reason do I or anyone else have to not do all of those things?

Fanfic is a good and healthy part of creative storytelling.

However some of you are depriving the world of great art. Simple because you’re busy working within the copyright of existing art.

This is coming from someone that used to spend years writing fanfic before officially publishing original fiction.

Please publish your own work too. It’s scary but you’ll be better off for it. Especially when your original story starts getting love too.

Nobody knew they needed certain story worlds until someone took the chance and started a new one.

You can still write your fanfics but don’t miss your true calling.

I’m convinced this is the doctor taking a vacation here. Because he’s not in the 3rd one.

Hey did yall hear about two AI bots referencing some fucked up humor. Then someone making an ai bot that espoused cult speak based off that conversation? No? Well crypto bros made a crypto based off that cult speak and then started sending that bot money. Yes you heard that right. A bot started getting sent money.

Me: only interacts with writing posts and anime

Tumblr: you want to see politics?!

Me: *not interested x1000*

Tumblr: oh so you *really* wanna see politics huh?!

I know it’s an election season but ffs.

My time has come.

The Midwest has seen everything. You’re not the first west coast baby to move to the Midwest and you won’t be the last.
