The Best Realisation I’ve Ever Had Was Waking Up To The Fact That I Do Not Have To Go To Bat For Celebrities.

Friendly reminders to cis fanfic writers that afab≠woman

Afab means assigned female at birth so this includes/can include cis women, trans men, transmasc people, nonbinary people, and intersex people.

If you’re making a fic where the reader is a woman, uses she/her, wears feminine clothing, etc. tag it as fem reader instead.

I’ve been smacked in the face as a trans man by reading fics tagged afab thinking it will be gender neutral, but the reader is actually a woman and I’m disappointed because I was ready for a fic I thought would apply to me.

Have fun writing and make sure you’re tagging your fics properly, ty <3

do you think Eurydice spent the rest of her afterlife knowing Orpheus only looked back because he loved her

do you think that even after she forgot everything else, like she did in Flowers, she still knew that someone loved her so much they’d risk everything for her

do you think Persephone sometimes looks at Eurydice and sees herself. Maybe Hades was the one to grant Eurydice the mercy of knowing that she was loved, even after she forgets her own name.

Maybe it was Orpheus who wrote their song, so that he wouldn’t be the only mortal to have known of Eurydice and how much they loved each other. Maybe that’s why Hadestown paints Orpheus in the way it does, because he can’t help but think of how his distraction pushed Eurydice down that path. And that’s why Hermes sings it, because he thinks that maybe even if the story stays the same, he’s still fulfilling Orpheus’ wish for people to know Eurydice.

I hate this show so much like you don’t even know

Idk if this is a hot take or not but I genuinely like most of the G3 monster high designs. Like hey, just because it's not the same vibe as the original doesn't to automatically make it bad. I can also agree that the quality of the clothing/accessories has probably fallen (like with every other doll line over time) but the general designs are still pretty good. Sure there are a couple wonky ones, and plenty of critiques to be said about erasing certain representations to be replaced with other less tactfully done (who tf thought it was a good idea to make Lagoona a Latina stereotype?????) but I genuinely appreciate this generation trying new things in reference to diversity. Anyway yeah I'm sad that the cute cartoon got canceled because a bunch of millennials refuse to support new projects for a newer generation of kids. (Lowkey gives the same vibes as when a couple gets together in a show and all of the anti-shippers rally so hard that they end up just killing off one half of the couple or changing the story but anyway)

The true gay agenda is writing about vampires

I wanna write something involving vampires for some reason...

wasn’t she also the one to defend the fans using nazi rhetoric? Like the fact that HH/HB fans were routinely calling anyone who disagreed “subhuman”? I don’t think she knows how to dog whistle, she just straight up screams.

The fact Vivzerpop has stated she is inspired by Seth Rogen comedies,

And also made a sausage party Nazi oc in the past...

While also being criticized for making Mimzy a *certain* caricature.

Some real odd implications there. Real odd.

“hey guys im here to correct on some misinformation in what a reboot is. a reboot is what it sounds like - it is a reimagining of a series. they’ll take old concepts, characters, or even just the franchise name and breathe new life into it.

“a lot of people will say a reboot isn’t necessary, BUT that’s coming from a fan of the originals, not from people who know the original sold. monster high in my opinion is the best example of what i’m talking about because generation one of monster high was only profitable really for about three or four years and that’s why it ended and that’s why they did the generation two reboot.

“so generation three was actually workshopped for YEARS by people who knew what they were doing. generation one of Monster High came out in 2010 generation three of Monster High came out in 2022. these are totally different markets.

“and as much as doll collectors hate to hear it - these are for children. the market that they tested and research with was children. as much as it might be a little bit sad to think ‘oh they changed my favorite character’ the originals still exist, you can always tune back in and check it out. at the end of the day, these are businesses. they don’t really care about your feelings, they’re just trying to make money off of an old familiar franchise again.

“i’m not super knowledgeable about holly hobbie but this is one of my original holly hobbie dolls and this is a new one and i’m pretty sure these are both the character carrie. they decided because when the originals came out, they did not have really any diversity other than hair color, they decided to add diversity of the line and completely reimagined them. a doll like like this would have not been successful in the early 2000s. this one wasn’t either but they tried something new.”

From sketch to final product, here’s Emilio! He can harness solar radiation through a totem sewn into his skin! Also the wings are a bonus. :)

sick of seeing disparaging comments towards men just for the sake of it.

“Ew, men are so gross looking.”

YOURE gross looking leave that boy who didn’t ask for your opinion alone!!!!! Just because it hurts a man doesn’t mean its feminism.

I love boys so much. Like so much. I love when they have long hair or no hair. I love when they do something passionately and refuse to back down from a problem. I love when they’re vulnerable and ask for help. I love boys.

suck, and i cannot stress this enough, my cock to the fucking base
