Oh for fuck’s sake, people calling out racist writing in fanfic isn’t “censorship”. I say this as a fic writer but some of you need to get off your high fucking horse.
Truly some of the most irritating culture has sprung up around fanwork and fanfic in specific like… no, making something for free does not in fact make it sacrosanct or immune to criticism! Your right to “do whatever you want forever” or say “fandom is for fun” stops the second you’re being bigoted and making fan spaces unsafe for marginalized people!
"fandom is for fun" except for poc who have to deal with rampant racism and white people unable to acknowledge let alone take accountability for their racism
Some of yall look past whitewashing just because the artist draws suggestive art of your fav clones tbh
Do we think "Israel" brazenly bragging about not allowing humanitarian aid through the border will be enough for people to stop scolding Gazans for making individual/family fundraisers because "it's better to donate to trusted orgs instead" or are they never going to get it?
Don't let your anxiety cause inaction, especially since there are people spending an incredible amount of effort to weed out the scammers and ease your anxiety about scammers. I don't know what else to do short of begging. Please don't let them starve. All my friends in Gaza are asking me why their campaigns are stagnating and I don't know how to answer them.
Anas is fighting cancer. (fundraiser) (vetting)
Amal needs to feed her baby. (fundraiser) (vetting #175)
Samir is in danger of losing his leg. (fundraiser) (vetting #428)
Mahmoud needs to pay remote tuition fees. (fundraiser) (vetting)
Please boost them and every vetted fundraiser that comes your way, and donate if you can. If you have any following and can think of anything like charity streams or giveaways to promote campaigns, please do so. This is a very crucial and difficult time for Gaza.
i dont hate shipping i just think a lot of you people maybe like shipping too much
its ok. you can engage in a fandom without shipping. its ok. there are other things you can do. not everything needs to be about romance and characters being cute and kissing
and not every unhealthy relationship has to be romantic either. can we get some love for unhealthy platonic and familial dynamics
yoou guys wont be laughing when i suddenly collapse unconscious and have to be taken to the hospital. then youll all see <- normal thought process to have while doing anything i dont want to
Come back, I have to tell you the plot of a fic I’ll never write and get you excited about it so we can all be disappointed with me later
The only lady love in Gordon's life, Tabitha the cat!
Happy Gordon Day everyone!
Have two very proud railway cats!
