love the library. there's no risk. you can take out a book and go "wow this sucks" and just give it back. and when you do that you're still making the library's Number Go Up so you'll be able to roll the dice on even more books. all for the low low price of free/you already paid for it with your tax money so you might as well use it

Man, It's just weird that you made the post about a nice person making you a letter from Sam and calling it ooc. They were just trying to be nice.
i'm sorry, Anon. I just got paranoid I'm constantly mischaracterizing Sam and me finding comfort in what they wrote is Scary bc what if someone finds out and i get hit with the classic "She has no capacity for love"

Usually A Lot Of The Time I don't really like talking about Communal Happenings on my blog, but that recent exposรฉ about a blogger irresponsibly using money given to them in good faith to buy en masse selfship commissions/merchandise has been making me think about the sort of hyper-competitive consumerist mindset that I think is a bigger problem in the selfship community as a whole.
While excessive collecting being treated as a symbol of status is a problem in just about any community that involves merchandise being sold in some way (may it be comics, DVDs, figurines, you name it), I feel like in the selfship community it's a lot more noticeable. Whenever the topic of merchandise of someone's F/Os comes up, it's treated as this sort of Rite of Passage, where absolutely everyone should have at least one piece of merchandise of their F/O, otherwise that for whatever means they aren't a Real lover of their F/O or their love for their F/O is considered less than, when that just isn't true.
There are a lot of factors as to why someone might not have merchandise of their F/Os: Maybe they're in a financially tight situation where spending money on luxuries comes rarely. Maybe they still live with family and are afraid of being judged for getting any. Maybe their F/O just doesn't have much, if any merchandise to begin with, or if they do, it's very expensive. Maybe their F/O does have merchandise, but it's not the usual repertoire of plushies and figurines that're often the mostly highly regarded merchandise. Maybe they're disabled and only get money through SSDI (or whatever your equivalent is if you live outside of the US) payments and can't afford to be spending it on non-essentials all the time. Maybe they live in countries where while they can get merchandise if they really wanted to, it's not a feasible option due to expensive international shipping costs. Or maybe (like in my case) they're in a living situation where they can't/aren't allowed to have a bank account (at least, not yet), meaning chances for them to spend money at all, much less by themselves, come rarely. They're all valid reasons and shouldn't be shamed for.
It's not the worst thing in the world to talk about F/O merchandise every now and then, but it becomes a problem if you start tying someone's worth to having it or treating it like a symbol of status or respect in the community. A lot of people just don't have the privilege to have these massive collections of gadgets and gizmos they can just slap their F/Os on, but hey, that's perfectly fine! That doesn't mean someone's love for their F/O isn't as valid or real. If the only merchandise you have of your F/O is just a T-shirt, then wear that shirt, dang it! It's the little things that matter.

#and the worst part was that they were pretending as if these were all just gifts#like oh wow you're so special and so important that you get free art#i don't fucking like how it comes off as backhanded bragging#be fucking transparent at least#selfshipping becoming a competition of who gets the most free art and work and analysis of their ships#and not just playing with toys anymore#im sick#i know i fall into this mentality far too many times than i'd like#but come on#come oooonnnn#what if the only merch of your f/o is hotsauce. what if#what if you're not even too comfortable supporting official merch bc it's a 150 dollar book#a sticker that's pretty much US exclusive#a fucking shirt/hoodie that's con exclusive
