I was looking through an old blog of mine at some Stardew Valley stuff I'd reblogged (also, warning: sdv content incoming!) and I found a GEM of a post I made in July 2021:

oh hun, if only you could see yourself now...
#krenenbaker's :)#this was fun to find again since#a. I'm still obsessed with Elliott#b. I don't ID as lesbian any more#c. I'm very queer and Elliott is both very gender and very attractive#(he's a very pretty man)#I also found all the other fandoms I was into in 2018-ish and OOF#one of them is kind of a yikes to look back on#especially since I didn't even finish watching the show because it really went downhill towards the end of the series - -;#and it was... kind of a toxic fandom too#anyways... rant over#prepare for some sdv stuff :)

Getarod brainrot making me sick I’ve got a lot of words about them
#transformers#transformers idw#getaway#idw getaway#rodimus#rodimus prime#rodimus notaprime#sorry shawty#getarod#getaway is such a cool character#i think getarod would be a disaster couple#not even a couple#getaway provokes a lot of emotion in rodimus#good and (mostly) bad#cork yap#toxic yaoi for the win#doesn’t always have to be toxic but getaway is so stuck in his ways it’s be hard to be intimate and loving with him#getaway and all the religious bullshit really awakens the geek in me#i want to write him suffering the horrors#i love him a lot#he is a horror himself#LOL#I just can’t imagine living getaway’s life amd being totally normal#girl i’d be killing people and asking for god’s approval too 😂#getaway really is a good villain#but no one cares ig maybe because all of his depth is emotional and hidden behind his massive pride and pathological lying#he has been very bad but i just think there’s a lot to dissect… he’s got what i like in a villain…#is it really all the same situation if the villain believes he is deserving of godhood… arrogance covering up insecurity…#not a getaway apologist he was kind of awesome with those experiments… and i just think his potential is wasted on the fandom a little#cork doodles

hot take but seeing the outsiders once a week doesn’t make you superior to anyone, nor does it make you best friends with the cast and we should stop feeding into toxic behavior instead of sitting around and bitching because people see the musical fandom as toxic because while the tumblr musical fans are fine for the most part, the fandom as a whole is toxic and that’s why i and so many others are leaving or have left it 🫶
#i’m so tired of being told about tiktok drama#i really couldn’t give two shits#it’s the fandoms fault collectively for feeding that kind of behavior#please stop coming to me on my other account—i really don’t care and it’s so mentally draining trying to play mediator in the fandom#not to have a savior complex but like…i’m sick of it#stop feeding into it#call them out but i want no part#not now anyway#the outsiders#rant#this isn’t a jab at musical fans—we all have our preferences#but if you’re feeding into the toxicity YOURE being toxic too#it’s just so annoying#when it got to the point of being threatened that’s when i left

Chapter 250-262 of Blue Lock or Chapter 259-262. Actually any time Kaiser got one upped by Isagi is this.
I was inspired by seeing this comic which inspired by this comic I KNEW I had to draw Ness and Kaiser as this because well this is their dynamic...well WAS until their break up.
#blue lock#alexis ness#michael kaiser#meme redraw#fanart#traditional art#comics#I could tag the ship but kind of hard too when they broke up lmao#like I knew it was gonna happen but I find it more funny that it did happen#These two are so toxic and I love them#blue lock spoilers#also hi yes I am reading the death game soccer manga#also don't worry yugioh followers I will post more yugioh fanart#you are just gonna also have to deal with me posting blue lock stuff and other art too#pierce draws#mineral vulture art#fandom frenzy free

Fandom ask #15! Go! >83
15. Fandom I find annoying
...
...........
..............................
I think all fandoms have an annoying side. And even the fandoms that are labeled "toxic" have their good sides.
At some point it's just a matter of curating one's own experience, I guess. You gotta steer away from the parts of the fandom you don't like and stick to the ones you like. I've rarely disliked my fandom experiences because I just don't stay in the sides of fandoms I find annoying.
Thank you for asking and sorry for the weird answer x)
ASK GAME
#i know genshin and steven universe and league of legend fandoms are considered toxic for example#but I've had a good time in those once I've found what kind of fandom content i wanted to see and what i didn't want to be part of#plus i dont wanna judge someone for liking a media and being part of a certain fandom#i know I've been cringe in fandom spaces too before#probably still am#I know the Kpop fandom can be extremely toxic at times but I've had a good time in it#it's a pretty hard question to answer honestly#so yeah tldr: it's your job to curate your own experience in fandoms#ask me anything

Kind of wish people would understand that you can dislike characters actions and they can piss you off but you can still enjoy the show as a whole
#yes this is about yellowjackets 💔 it is not a lack of media literacy to dislike a fictional character because they annoy you#thats just a byproduct of interacting with any kind of fiction#it happens#i hate shauna because she annoys the hell out of me but i understand a lot of her motivations and her situation-#-which makes me understand how complex of a character she is. but that doesnt mean i actually like her#she still annoys me#i just know why she annoys me#and i think a lot of people are too obsessed with the show to actually understand that you can still like it-#-and even like the characters but still dislike and acknowledge when a character does something bad#because the character did something bad#like idk its weird to me that people get so defensive over it#just as characters can do bad things people can dislike characters for doing bad things and still enjoy the narrative at hand#you do not need to instill toxic positivity as a must to interact with fandom#you do not need to jump for joy at every pixel on screen#you can dislike things#hate them even#because everybody dislikes things. everybody hates things. thats just being human.#no show is perfect and the point of the show isnt even to be perfect#which is something people repeat over and over as to why you need to like everything in it (which seems like backwards thinking to me)#people can be complicated and the show (and characters) is complicated#but you can dislike complex things??#i do not understand the narrative people are pushing that you cannot dislike any character because it 'proves' you dont understand nuance-#-and cant handle an 'adult show' like yellowjackets#the argument just reminds me of people who get angry when you criticise the humor in rick and morty#its so 'you need to be an intellectual to understand it'core i fear 💔

No it's alright HAHA nw!! I used to go by Richie actually, I was in the sanders sides server if you remember ~🌸
I'm so sorry i dont remember 😭 i left that server like 4 years ago or smth and because of my memory issues, i only really remember the people i maintained consistent online friendships with even after leaving 😭
#ask#anon#ntm i was pretty checked out of that server for several months before i left it too lol so i remember very little#i felt pressured to stay for a LOT longer than i wanted to#and so i think the discomfort of those last months; wanting to leave but the rest of the mod team constantly convincing me to stay;#kind of overtook the memories of the fun earlier days when i was more active and actually talked and interacted w everyone lol#i dont blame the rest of the mod team btw i was not communicating my discomfort effectively at the time#i didnt rly explain that the sanders sides fandom as a whole (back then) had become a difficult and toxic topic/space for me#they probs just thought i wanted to leave cuz i wasnt in the fandom anymore#not because i was in active discomfort with even just that proximity to the fandom because of fandom as a whole#honeydew-fluff

God bless Todd. Guys I had no idea how much good it would do me to see him back as Sam Hanna last night. Still high on positive energy. He also did the impossible. I've been working tons of extra hours -- every evening and on the weekends -- for my job for reasons. There's so much to do that even when I'm home I keep working. For the first time in 2.5 weeks I actually didn't work on a project last night because I was too busy getting ready to settle in and watch NCIS and then was too happy to do anything. Sam Hanna did that. He also had me writing fics in my head while I sat in the now daily construction traffic on my way home.
#it was kind of a cleansing of fandom too#after days of toxicity in some tags i shall not mention and other places#bless#but i do love how 0 people whose job it is to recap tv caught the line from lone wolf to the pup pun#like you guys love lame wordplay#how did you miss that?#you're just jealous you didn't get to use it in a silly title for a listicle or something#anyway#z rambles on

Sorry for this long rambling ask but I just feel really sad :(
The yr fandom seems so toxic nowadays :/ it feels like there's always drama but when there's no drama it's dead
I don't have anyone irl or online to talk about yr with so I just read things online, I'm really tempted to move on but it's really sad because I've never been this obsessed with a TV show before but I'm just done
Any updates from edmar lead to arguments between omar and edvins fans and I'm really tired
I've had this feeling since the drama from last year started but now I'm actually thinking it's time to go
I struggle to meet people normally anyway so I really don't know how to meet people in the fandom too that are nice and like both edvin and omar :(
🫂
#i know twt is toxic but do you mean tumblr too? i don't really see that kind of drama here#yr fandom

Upcoming Event Update
After some careful consideration, I have decided not to host a gratitude/kindness event this year for a number of reasons.
However, instead, I will extend the Spread Kindness Event through the end of November. Whether you participated the first time and what to share more joy or you were busy and want to give some shout outs now, you are welcome to so. This blog is always open to encourage and lift people up.
I challenge everyone to consider giving 3 people a shout out before the end of the month.
Another challenge, every time you get anon hate (or hate from a burner blog), delete + block, and then go leave a word of kindness for someone else, whether it be here or to the person directly.
Unexpected kindness is the most powerful, least costly, and most underrated agent of human change. ~ Bob Kerrey 💜
#choices spread kindness#choicesspreadkindness#choices fandom appreciation#choices#choices game#playchoices#Feel free to call me toxic#or fake#I'll still be here choosing kindness because#You cannot do kindness too soon#for you never know how soon it will be too late.#I never want it to be too late.

me when i find people that make hate posts and then tag them with all the relevant fandom tags so it will show up on your dash when you follow the tag
#sorry idk this is happening way too often in some of my fandoms atm#like attacking people for completely innocuous ships and characters#like wtf compels you to make vitriolic posts about something and then purposely tagging it so those people will see it#when they are just trying to enjoy fun tumblr scroll time#the ship tag in one of my current fandoms in particular is starting to be 50% antis AND ITS NOT EVEN A 'PROBLEMATIC' SHIP???#BOTH OF THE CHARACTERS ARE ADULTS#BUT THEY TRIED TO KILL EACH OTHER AT FIRST DUDE SO WHAT TUMBLR IS BUILT ON ENEMIES TO LOVERS#IT'S BUILT ON TOXIC SHIPS#HANNIGRAM IS RIGHT THERE#don't tag your hate has kind of been an unspoken rule for a while but ig not anymore.#this is what happens when you join a fandom with not enough weirdos (affectionate) in it unfortunately

it's all relative and cringe doesn't exist and i don't think i should care or you should care or anyone else
#i honestly treat fandom culture(?) and ooc discourse as toxic idk fr i dont like this concept#why anyone would care... sorry i came from avant-garde circles i just don't get it !#wow i self gaslighted myself into caring about this bc “art is useless w/o audience” and#i forgot that im my own audience! since this isn't a commercial thing why should i care#anyway if some1 read this rn: i honestly think that the main point of art is to have fun n be urself n be free#peace and love on the planet earth goodnight bye !#sorry i wanted to say this for too long. dear god like give urself some freedom.... (< @myself mostly)#n have respect like.... its basic things... to respect urself (!!!) n to respect others#self therapy kind of post. not sorry#and no u cant even imagine how confused i was w fandom culture at first

I've just been staring at the promo pic for the Flamby episode, because bearded!John Light is so beautiful, and it got me wondering.
We know that the showrunners are at least somewhat aware of the fandom given the fan-service they've given us in the past (Sister Boniface spinoff, thief Marianne, Valentine return, Susie mention, Felicia/Flambeau, probably more I'm forgetting).
So what I'm wondering is...do you guys think the showrunners/episode director asked (either now or in seasons past) John Light to grow a beard *for us* because they know we're all thirsty for bearded!Flamby, or do you think that Flambeau facial hair is just dependent on whatever John Light already happens to be rocking on his face at the time of filming?
Like is it fanservice or just serendipity? Either way, I am not complaining but it does make me wonder.
#father brown#no one has ever loved me the way the father brown showrunners love me#it's just...these fans are constantly being serviced and i feel so bad for other fandoms that don't get this kind of love#but then i don't feel too bad because other fandoms probably don't deserve it#if they're gonna be all toxic about it#not that we're perfect either (esp with the sullivan/devine drama) but still lightyears better than most#hercule flambeau#john light#bearded!flamby; my beloved

Literally anything but misogyny and making her his ‘bitch ex wife’ PLEASE 🙏🙏🙏🙏 we are not conservatives in the 50s we do not have to do this.
You! Fanfiction writer!
I hear you wanna remove a canon female love interest from a M/F ship for the purpose of your fanfiction, eh?
Well before you turn her into a raging bitch for absolutely no reason, WHY NOT:
“He just wasn’t into her like that but they’re still friends”
“They tried dating and decided it wasn’t what they wanted”
“She didn’t actually know him that well and after some time she realized she wasn’t actually that interested”
“He had a habit that was a total deal-breaker, no hard feelings though”
“One of them got a really good job offer somewhere else that they couldn’t turn down and have since moved on”
“Turns out she’s gay”
“Turns out HE’s gay”
“One of them wanted kids and one didn’t”
“They had different long-term goals”
“They tried dating and realized they saw each other more as family and it was super weird and uncomfortable, like kissing your sister”
“Neither one of them was in it for the long haul, it was more of a friends-with-benefits deal”
“Dating one another was what made them realize they’re BOTH gay”
“They weren’t compatible in bed”
“One of them was more career-driven than the other”
“By the time one of them confessed the other had already started a relationship with someone else and they’re doing really well”
“One of them has a beloved pet that the other is deathly allergic to so the distance kinda broke things down”
“They wound up working for the same company with a zero fraternization policy”
“One of them is the other’s boss so dating would be unethical”
“One of them is focusing on themselves right now”
“He’s actually kind of a loser”
“They couldn’t communicate their needs”
“He wasn’t actually all that attractive after all”
“You misunderstand, they are each other’s wingman”
”You misunderstand, they are each other’s beard”
“You misunderstand, they faked the relationship so they could marry for citizenship/tax purposes/political reasons”
”They ARE together but they’re both into the third party”
”They ARE together but they’re cool with each other seeing other people��
”They’ve been faking the relationship to evade an excess rental expense on their shared apartment”
”They’re not in a romantic/sexual relationship, they just got that queerplatonic swag”
“Their parents got married and the step-siblings thing gave them the ick”
“You thought they were flirting? Dude that was ironic. What, you don’t flirt with your friends?”
#that being said#‘She breaks up with HIM because he’s mentally I’ll’#then since this type of thing is usually for yaoi#he immediately gets in some kind of evil codependent gay relationship#that she was too self respecting to get into#I just think it could serve as an interesting foreshadowing to the toxic yaoi if his gf broke up with him for those same traits#adds complexity#gf (to bf’s new ship): good luck girl- you’ll need it#though I’m mostly a Yuri warrior these days so idk#when it’s breaking up the m/f couple for Yuri I care less but also#I think it depends on the relationship#like sometimes it’s important to the integrity of the media these characters have dated at least once#and sometimes you can circumvent that with ‘Play flirting’or ‘in a QPR’#but sometimes you can’t and the best way to do service to both characters is just to have them be ex’s#they don’t even need to have one be in teh wrong#but if you do ponder on why it’s the woman#unless she’s like canonically abusing him or something it’s really not needed#just have them break up- if it’s a ship maybe he realises he’s in love with the other ship side and HAS to break it off#why are we scared of break up#a messy breakup is FUN to read#as long as they aren’t engaging in misty and are understanding of her side too#free all fandom women actually#this is why I started reading more Yuri

6 and 15 for the fandom ask game ^-^
6) Fav Headcanon
Okay generally- Idk if it counts as a “headcanon” but I love “everyone lives” AUs where a character’s fatal wound becomes a disability instead :]]]
For TGAA- Ballerina Barok is actually top tier. I refuse to believe there wasn’t a practical reason for his leg thing
15) fandom you find annoying
The only thing I can think of is THOSE swifties…ya know what I mean…
#toxic swifties are the only fans I can think of that ACTUALLY affected how I feel about the original project#I used to love Taylor :((((#but now I can’t even listen to her older songs that i adored#I know you’re not supposed to let fans affect things kinds of things but the association was too strong#and also Taylor herself started pissing me off too….#there’s probably not a regular fandom that I dislike as a whole#I’m just not a hater like that
