“fun fact: as a DV survivor i cannot register to vote because doing so makes my address public. anyone who is fleeing or hiding from an abuser is automatically disenfranchised from the political process and this is a feature, not a bug”]

I’d like to add this thread from Bad Writing Takes on Twitter. The woman literally doesn’t know how to debate.

Someone reposted our lives non fiction on wattpad, their username is hazzaandlou9898 (Also I recently read your latest Christmas fic and ITS SO GOOD BEHWIDNENE)

Hello, love!

Thank you for letting me know, this was really helpful. Larry Authors, please check this account as they have reposted 90 Larry fics on wattpad. They give credit but fics are posted word for word without permission (or at least mine was definitely posted without permission).

Here’s How to File a DMCA Take Down Notice.

To other people thinking of doing this, whether with malice or without — please don’t. Whether you give credit or not or just want a good fic to be more accessible, there’s a reason I, personally, don’t post on Wattpad.

Don’t go against an author’s choice, it’s a dick move.

(And thank you for the compliment on my fic, anon!)

it’s honestly sad that people are making fun of miranda cosgrove for saying she’s never been drunk or smoked before… i know it might seem shocking but for some people it is actually possible to enjoy yourself without being drunk or smoking

Louis might not be chucking bricks at No. 10, but people are responding like he’s never displayed leftist politics or challenged a government position on anything. He supported demands to the government about a fix for UK touring musician post Brexit and Marcus Rashford’s petition about food insecurity. He fought the police about their social media use in 2018 and criticised the UK government position/support for factory workers in the pandemic. The things he speaks about are usually UK issues and meaningful to him or his family and friends. He’s also most likely to speak when he isn’t working. Also that specific anarchy has a punk anti authoritarian message as well. That statement fits Louis pretty well. He has been a poster boy for not sitting down and shutting up and doing what you’re told since 2012. If he was he probably wouldn’t have a solo career and he definitely wouldn’t have sold out the O2.

I like this point about him speaking out more when he's not working, I think that's a really great and useful observation and makes so much sense. I feel like it makes sense in two ways right now: like first, I don't blame him for not wanting to do things that would jeopardize how beautifully everything is going for him right now after the number of setbacks and troubles he's had to get here, it must feel so precarious. And knowing for a fact that any political statement you make will spawn a dozen tabloid stories and all kinds of outrage is bad enough, but add to that the fact that it's simply impossible to predict which thing will turn into a huge viral mess- it's a lot. And second, he's not just working, he's been on TOUR! I've been around musicians my whole life and one constant is that tour is time outside of normal time and life, it's a bubble, it's only paying attention to right where you are and what's in front of you and the people there with you and everything else is put off and neglected, is for when you get home (and have massive post tour letdown depression and fatigue). I'm not saying he can disconnect with the outside world entirely... but putting everything on pause? I would be surprised if it were any other way, and I would be surprised if he's been following the news and counter news and so forth closely enough to feel comfortable speaking out publicly about anything when it will be so scrutinized and picked apart. I would add to your list supporting the rail strike (something we wouldn't even know about if it hadn't been tossed in as an aside by an interviewer in the print only version of a piece, he didn't post about it or anything) and attending and posting about the BLM protests (not to mention telling people to pirate his stuff come on how punk is that), and I agree he is much more likely to speak out about UK issues which makes sense: most people are most moved by issues that are close to their lives in some way, and it's his brand. And I agree that even though as an anarchist I love talking about what anarchism as a political ideology actually is, the symbol does also have a common meaning in the world as just basically standing for anti-authoritarianism, and Louis as a guy who rejects authority and the status quo is nothing new at all and one of the reasons we love him, and in the last few years I feel like he's been going further in that direction both aesthetically and politically, and we love to see it! Plus he has pretty much always sported this slightly punky aesthetic to some degree, even when he was being dressed up like a little ken doll he snuck in skater looks and indie band tees and so forth (something something it's part of why his fanbase was so primed to love his new sound and it wasn't the risk he feared it was because people were always drawn to him who were already into that aesthetic even when his sound wasn't that yet) it's not like it's just a brand new out of nowhere side of him or something.

Hi. I just wanted to stop and scream about how flamboyant Louis is 🥺

oh my god??? yes, you’ve come to the right place

first of all, there’s nothing better than louis describing himself as flamboyant (x)

yes you are right louis, a flamboyant flower (x)

whether he’s playing footie (x) or on stage (x)

or just standing there (x)

oR WHEN HE DELICATELY PUTS HIS HAND ON HIS CHEST (x)

OR WHEN HE TRIES TO STIFFLE HIS GIGGLES (x)

he just IS (x) ; (x)

flamboyant and a little bit sinister is the most accurate anyone has ever described him

and NO, I DID NOT forget about g-a-y or his limp wrist, i just think they deserve their own posts 😔

anyways catch me screaming about louis for 24 hours straight

Me seeing everyone canceling Louis as if this wasn't his baseline. Like this isn't the norm. He wasn't being rude, this is normal, if a bit sassy, for him. And as for the discourse about him "clearly" not wanting queer fans?

Where's your evidence? I've seen nothing that suggests that he doesn't want them, or does. Main thing I see here is people feeling "disrespected" because of Larry possibly but...people break up?

It's not a crime, unless I missed something?

Edit: For added context, I was there for the entire tweet spree so I saw the tweet live. If he said that in an interview, he would have said that in a casual, level voice. People are making it bigger than it is.

Lmaoo sabine I know we all should just ignore them now but I couldn't not share this. So that dumbass UA louisstreams made this tweet right....

And someone who was there qted with this and now the tweet is deleted but you know screenshots exist and shit never goes away. How patheic of them couldn't even say LARRY they said "relationship".

I can’t even be angry with those admins anymore, they’re assholes, period. They’re not even hiding it.

But what about those thousands of Larries that made the account as big as it is? If they would unfollow, this account would be meaningless.
