I hope you'll let me tell you a little bit about my home🇵🇸, Gaza🍉. It's a place where we're living through some very challenging times💔🥹. We're under attack from bombs, explosives, and warplanes, and we've had to endure many nights of sleeplessness. It's a difficult situation💔, but we're trying to stay positive🖤. This war has really taken a toll on us. It's destroyed our bodies, our lives, and our souls. It has been so sad to see our homes destroyed, our belongings taken from us, and our beautiful places ruined. It has also changed our situation for the worse. We were living a pretty good life, you know? Peaceful, loving, and full of life. But then, we found ourselves in a really tough spot. Hunger, fear, and terror have become our new normal. My kids and I, along with my extended family, are struggling to make ends meet. We don't have the basic necessities of life, and our living situation is pretty rough. We're in these old, falling-apart tents. It's so hard to know what to do when winter comes. We'll be soaked in the rain and wind, and I'll be at a loss as to how to keep my family safe, from the bombing and from the winter.🥹
I'm really hoping you can help me and my family to live through this awful war.💔

THEYRE DONE THEYRE DONE SAY HI TO THE RANBOO FURSUIT!!!!
@ranboolivesaysstuff
I don’t think I’ve made any cannon dsmp content since 2022
Happy 22nd Birthday Warrior Cats!
Kitt is better than Kai and we should talk about it
is tumblr a safe place for me to say that i love kitt azer
spotify wrapped is out and everybody is always posting their top 5 songs….. let’s see some love for number 6 that didn’t make the cut. rb and add your number 6
you ever wanna make art so badly but you also don’t want to make art
is anyone else’s low key excited for the live action httyd or is it just me? Because like yeah it wasn’t needed like at all but I think it’s gonna be good at least better than some other live action movies. I just don’t get the hate.
INNITERS THAT LIKE ISEKAI/TRANSMIGRATION, HEAR ME!
this is threadcutter. it’s the second part of an ultra long tommy-transmigration fic. it updates regularly and it’s peak fiction. the author wanted the fic to be spread for their birthday so here it is! go read the first part and then read this! or if you’ve read the first part, continue it here!! ALSO IF YOU SEE THIS PLEASE REBLOG!
Watched it ends with us and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was like the expected it to totally glamorize the abuse and make seems like it okay and then a total one 80 and be “no, no we said it fine earlier but its actually bad” but they didn’t really do that. If anything the movies bad because the dialogue is cringe and stale. And the scenes are all so awkward and boring and have such a forced vibe to it, like do y’all want to even be acting like now? And the skip in between the past and present is confusing because it never says it’s the past. Usually movies will have something like “in 1982 during march” but it didn’t have anything like that. And I feel like if anyone who hasn’t read the book or knew anything about it would be so confused. like the one scene of her writing a letter to Ellen. They never talked about that. It was so random.
I hate Colleen Hoover so much she doesn’t deserve a movie. Her books upset me so much especially ugly love and honestly anyone who decides to write a love story between step siblings doesn’t need a fucking movie. Like that was not needed the book would be just fine without that. It wasn’t even the main love story or anything she just did for fun. Every Colleen Hoover books make me think she hates woman. Anyways November 9th is worse and I will in fact spit in Colleen Hoovers face if I ever met her. Back on topic “it ends with us” is at least 5/10 and I hope a Colleen Hoover book is never made into a movie again.
“now that the dsmp fandom is dead and gone-“
BRO WE ARE RIGHT HERE WE ARE ACTIVE WE ARE STILL MAKING ART AND FICS AND THEORIES AND HEADCANONS AND COSPLAYING AND BUYING FAN MERCH 😭 WE ARE ALIVE AND WELL ITS JUST LESS INSANELY LOUD THESE DAYS!
like bro it’s been less than half a decade since this fandom started, it was one of the biggest fandoms in the world at one point and it’s not anymore but that’s FINE. the point of fandom is that no fandom ever fully dies. at least SOMEONE out there will always be creating for a piece of media as well known as dsmp. the dsmp will always mean something to so many of us and therefore it ain’t completely going anywhere anytime soon.
We are not numbers, each one of us has albalawi_ps a family, a home, a #story, ambitions, desires, a heart ✔ ! and a dream in life that we wish to achieve
Please!! Stand with us and #support my family to have the life we deserve
My family has many children, also my mother and father suffer from chronic diseases and need urgent and necessary health care and treatments

This is soooooo fucking true. Every word. And is a bring pet peeve of mine especially when people do include Kristen into a sbi fic but kill her off so that Phil has a reason to be sad or to be a bitch like I wanna have fanfic with kristen in it but she’s always either dead or she’s there but she’s not talked about or barely shown so you forget she’s even in the story. And Niki is usually just very one dimensional, the nice bakery girl that always there to comfort but she’s so much more than that. You can write her being nice but also having other personality traits it’s not hard.
anyways y’all should write more dark sbi fanfics where Kristen is the mastermind behind it all.
DSMP Fanfics and Women: Passive, Fridged or Worse
I have read a lot of DSMP fanfics in the years I’ve been in the fandom. I’ve read popular fics, unpopular fics, fics that have since been deleted, and everything in between. And unfortunately, there has been a trend I’ve notice in this fandom.
This fandom really doesn’t like it’s female characters.
Now, not every single fic in the fandom fails its female characters, but the ones that don’t tend to be the exception, not the rule.
And no, this isn’t going to be a long post demanding people write fics only focusing on the women of the DSMP. Side characters and supporting casts make up important roles in stories as well, and so this discussion will apply to every single fic in the fandom, because the issues aren’t just the women not being the main characters, but how writers treat them in their fics.
Also, I am gonna be using the terms male and female characters a lot. I know a few characters don’t fit this binary, and I don’t want to exclude them, but I don’t want to over-complicate this post, especially given how different these characters are treated. Ranboo is a character that has no concept of gender, but the fandom mostly treats them pretty well, with exceptions of course – though that can be explained by most of the fandom simply treating Ranboo as a male character. Whereas Eret… oh, some of the things I’ve read could be it’s own post. We’re just gonna keep it simple for now.
Let’s start with the one point that infuriates me the most: fridging.
For those of you who don’t know, fridging is a term that refers to the trope of a female character dying in order to further the a male character’s story, usually via providing them with motivation. This is bad because it basically turns the female character into nothing more than an object. Fridging has been criticised for many, many years now, ridiculed as much as the equally appalling bury your gays trope.
And damn, have I read way too many fics where women are fridged.
Obviously, you can kill off female characters, that’s not the issue. But when you have a character die, and it’s only done for the sake of either getting your male characters to do something, or to give them something to whine about, it’s not a pleasant reading experience.
Of course, it could be worse. In one fic I read where a female character was fridged right near the beginning of the story, two other female characters are introduced and later die. There was a male character these two women had helped out in the very short glimpses of screen time. When they die, you’d expect that male character – who was just saved by one of them, by the way – would mourn them, right? What actually happened is that male character mourned a different male character. A character that he literally doesn’t know and never spoke to. His thoughts are literally how if they had met they might have been friends. Not a single thought is given to the two women who died – again, one of them just saved him before dying.
Even in their deaths, female characters aren’t treated like individuals. They’re objectified by their deaths. They’re either not worth mourning or caring about. Or, they’re only worth attention because of how their death furthers the male characters development.
Now, let’s talk about passive characters, active characters and character agency.
Character agency is a character’s ability to affect or progress the story. Active characters have agency and actively affect the story. Passive characters have no agency, and are affected by the story.
The DSMP is mostly filled with active characters, due to the nature of how the story is played out. But for the sake of an example, let’s bring out Tommy. A time where Tommy was being an active character was when he gave up the discs for L’manburg’s freedom and right to exist. This affected the plot greatly, as without that there wouldn’t have been a L’manburg. A time where Tommy was a passive character was the exile arc. Tommy was kidnapped by Dream, and forced to live out his exile where Dream placed him. This wasn’t Tommy making a decision, this was Tommy being affected by the plot which was being shaped by those around him. Tommy had no agency in these moments.
I’ve noticed that despite the female characters canonically having a lot of agency and being very active characters, female characters are often turned into passive characters. They don’t drive or contribute to the plot in any way, the plot just happens to them.
Now, you might be under the assumption that it’s simply just because the women are rarely the main characters. After all, it’s impossible for side characters and supporting cast members to be active characters, right?
WRONG! It’s not that hard to give characters agency. If a character is included in a scene, they should have a reason to be there. They should have a purpose, a motivation, a goal. They should be making choices. Yet way too often female characters are, at best, just going along with what the male characters say or do. At worst, they’re just basically cameo appearances, a way for the writer to pat themselves on the back for being so diverse without actually putting in effort.
There is also the fact that when writers are picking out their cast, they make some… interesting choices. Female characters rarely get the chance to actively being involved in what the male characters are doing.
Why are SBI fics so… determined to only have male characters in the family? SBI has no basis in canon, and the characters themselves have meaningful relationships with female ones. Kristin is literally Philza’s wife and canonically Wilbur’s mother. Niki has a lot of history and lore with all SBI members, all mostly beginning positive at the beginning.
You’d think that since SBI fans love family dynamics, they’d be down with including more members, right? After all, more characters means you can really explore new and interesting dynamics. After all, if you’re focusing on a family dynamic, it’s better to have a decent sized cast to work with, and five or six allows for more dynamics to form. But when SBI fans want to throw in two characters into the mix, the go with Tubbo and Ranboo. Which is especially confusing given how many fics keep the Beeduo marriage, giving an unintentional incesty angle.
But why does it have to be the male characters? In SBI, why not Niki and Kristin? That adds in a Mother and a Daughter/Sister character, which can add in new relationship interactions. That could be interesting, and actually add in some new twists to a part of the fandom with over 20K fics on Ao3.
It’s not just in family dynamics. In AUs, roles in stories that could be fulfilled by anyone are typically given to male characters. These roles might be needed for the story, but they don’t rely on any dynamics, duos or anything, just simply picking any character who isn’t already part of the plot. And, it would be easy to give a female character a role like this and allow them to progress the plot. But it’s always a male character.
A common defense I’ve seen SBI writers specifically use is that they don’t include Kristin because they want to write a story where Phil/Wilbur/Techno/A combination of all three/etc aren’t being great family members, and Kristin just wouldn’t allow that. It was just too hard and didn’t work. I used to think this was true, until I sat down and wrote my own fic where Wilbur and Phil don’t have a healthy relationship… and Kristin is there… fitting seamlessly into the plot, while not supporting Phil’s actions entirely.
It really wasn’t hard at all, and the only assumption I can come to is that these other writers… don’t really want to try.
There are no real magic solutions to these problems. Fanfics are free, the writers don’t owe anyone a perfect piece of fiction.
But I don’t think it’s too much to ask that the writers behind these fics stop and reflect on why they’re making the choices they do. To sit down and consider if their reasoning behind decisions… are actually excuses to hide behind.
Writers can do whatever they want, but as someone who reads fics even more than I write them, I’m getting tired and bored of this. Is it really too much to ask for where a female character just… can exist? And contribute to the plot?
These are ramblings from someone who is tired, and it’s probably not put together the best, but hopefully this can at least be a starting point for getting at least a part of the fandom to really think about their approach to fanfics and specifically female characters in them.
it makes my day every time i see someone reblog/like my old allium duo art so heres a small doodle as a token of my appreciation c:
It’s crazy that Tommy doesn’t get how big of impact on people’s lives the dsmp had. Like sure it was messy and not always coherent but there was a message. And there was an impact. like almost everyone was depressed and left with their own thoughts and no to talk to. So like no shit a story about a teenager being basically abused by almost every adult around of him and then becoming suicidal because of it hit close to home for some people or at least intrigued them.
Tommy. Tommy buddy im gonna need you to take a few steps back and leave c!tommy to people who actually understand him/hj

🇵🇸 save family lost their home ,dreams and everything in Gaza 🇵🇸
This is my home before the war and after the war how it became💔💔💔
Before: After:
We have been through many wars before, but this war was not like the ones before it. Our lives were turned upside down. We became displaced from one place to another. We are the Anas family, residents of northern Gaza, specifically in the Shujaiya area. In the first week of the war, we fled our home because everyone considered our home to be in a dangerous area. We moved to the Rimal area, specifically in the middle of Gaza. There, we received the news that our home, which contained all our beautiful memories, was bombed. Suddenly, it was gone!!! Just thinking that your home, which you worked hard on and built from scratch and took a lot of your life, was gone in less than a second ! After a while, we left the sands to the Al-Zawaida area because of the heavy shelling. We stayed there for about two weeks, and then the terrorist army asked us to go to Rafah. We actually fled for the fourth time to Rafah and stayed there for two months, some of the most difficult days of our lives, as there was no way or means to live a normal life. 😔😔 After that, because of the invasion of Rafah, we moved to Deir al-Balah. Now, we are in very difficult and oppressive circumstances.
We are asking you with all shame to support and stand by us in these difficult circumstances that everyone knows because we lost our home, our work and any stable source of income. Thank you all.

So I just watched Sweet Tooth on Netflix right. It's literally a dsmp AU turned TV series I fucking can't-
Exhibit A: Literally. Every. Animal. Hybrid. On. The. SMP. Without fail. Like seriously it was freaky, with almost the exact same (If not similar) character designs.
Exhibit B: Main character is a passionate blond child who wears red and gets a new family member every 5 seconds, has daddy/family issues, abandonment issues, and gets their trust abused/taken advantage of consistently. Like bruh.
Exhibit C: Reluctant Dad™ collects edgy children like pokemon cards.
Exhibit D: Children forming a government/cult and it going horribly fucking wrong.
Exhibit E: Child torture porn. Like seriously leave the damn kids alone the both of you christ.
Exhibit F: W h ere are the adults??? And how are they all this dumb?????
Exhibit F (continued): Orphans. So many orphans.
Exhibit G: Fascists.
I really want someone to write a fiction of a Sweet Tooth AU that would s l a p.
I love allium duo :3
sometimes I have the intense urge to share every single thought that goes through my little pea brain.
This is just for science but, if you had a dsmp phase at some point, reblog this, i wanna see how many of us there was that is currently here :3
trying out drawing more realistic cats 👍 JayFeather is one of my favorite characters.
