My Fallout show "hot take" is that it is just as fandom brained to force a "father-daughter" relationship onto the Ghoul and Lucy as it is to ship them.

in both cases you are boxing a very interesting pair of characters into predetermined fandom tropes. You are not better because your box doesn't have them fuck nasty!

Dont get me wrong, go off! Enjoy it as a father-daughter duo! But do not be rude towards people who see two adult characters with a messy dynamic and ship them.

At the end of the day, theres very little in the actual text to imply either right now. Hell, I just saw two posts, back to back, describe the same scene in the exact same way up until the final paragraph, where one said "And thats why he's her dad!" and the other said "And thats why they're in love!".

Don't be an asshole and don't couch personal dislike in faux moralising. We are talking about a woman who casually fucked hooked-up with her cousin and a 200 year old zombie vagabond. Its not that deep.

hey guys. remy design

[oceanwithouthermoon]

i think its weird that i have to make this disclaimer but the internet is crazy so wtvr,, anyway,,

if i say i dont like something, that doesnt mean "that thing is bad and nobody should post it.."

i swear literally every time i even mention that i dislike something, people will go "wow does that mean u fucking hate me cuz i post that thing? ur a fucking stupid bitch and all ur opinions r wrong" LIKE ?? er.. no. just because i say i dont like certain characterizations of certain characters (the saiki k fandom is CRAZY about this cuz i can state an opinion on literally any character and a group of people will still go 'well only we're allowed to post our opinions about them because we're always right!1!1!'), or certain ship tropes (mentioned my hatred of toxic yaoi maybe once or twice on here months ago and people STILL get mad at me as if i said toxic yaoi lovers r evil or something), or certain ships, or WHATEVER, does not mean that i HATE the people who are posting them or that i think they shouldnt post them at all, NO, im just posting about my personal tastes on my personal blog and it would be extremely weird and hypocritical if i decided that i was the ONLY person that was allowed to do that,,

i think the only reason people assume that is because there are a lot of other people on here who ARE like that, and a lot of people toe the line between posting that they dont like something and posting that they think everyone who likes that thing is stupid, annoying, and wrong,, so i guess all i can say is, sorry for whatever made you make these assumptions but they arent true about me so plz leave me alone ʘ‿ʘ ur doing the same thing to me that ur accusing me of but i didnt do it in the first place so ur just actively being a dick for no reason

Hey, so if anyone here was unaware

On Twitter, someone has come out with information regarding Gabe Velez/Gamerduck (frogbots va), talking about their experience with him. (the post is linked below but I need to warn you guys for multiple mentions of SA and abuse)

I am not going to say much else here other than I am fucking disgusted. I cannot even put into words how angry this makes me. Fuck Gabe, and fuck anyone who still supports him after this.

[noisemastter]

so,

its like that

You know maybe its because since the beginning there was a little bit of friction between them, more on lando's side, and how obvious it was which driver mclaren prefers (we aren't going to enter this debate), but the whole interview leaves a bitter taste on the mouth and its astonishing to me how can you say you feel zero sympathy towards your teammate AND said it because you only wants to focus on your driving and you're not there to help.

And to people that are saying "oh he's right, not his job, he doesn't need to feel sympathy nor daniel wants." I get, but a little human decency will not harm you nor your carrer

As the amazing Susie Wolff said once:

"The sport is brutal you need to ruthless, competitive. But I don't believe that to be successful you need to be an asshole"

Sup guys. I gots to ask y'all something. My birthday is coming up this month and I would like to do something with some of my mutuals for it.

You know the hit TF2 video called Heavy is Dead? Well, I would like to do a collab with you guys on it, specifically the ones who I end up summoning, ok?

So my plan was to have you three mutuals and I draw/animate bits for the video. We will get 2 mercs each and draw/animate those mercs for the collab.

Here's how I planned this, but it could change to make you guys feel comfortable to do it if you want. For now I chose characters that you guys used the most.

I will animate Spy and Scout.

@cage-cat-yt would animate Heavy and Medic.

@fandomandangstlover would animate Engineer and Soldier.

@giddlygoat would animate Sniper and Demoman.

To be honest Giddly I was considering you to have Scout instead because you draw him the most but I wanted you to have the chance in having a merc that stays alive longer (Sniper) as well as the one who doesn't (Demo).

Same thing with the rest of you, I chose a merc that stays alive long and the one that doesn't for you just to be fair.

And no fancy background is required, you can use a blank white canvas, it's just better that way I'm sure.

This collab doesn't have to be done on my birthday, it would be cool if it did but you could take as much time as you need. It would still be for my birthday. Hell, not even that! it could just be something fun that we can do together, no pressure.

Also if you felt like you can't animate just draw some expressions and poses and what not so I can edit it in. As long as it fits the original idc. Also it doesn't have to be a recreation of it, it's just meant to be silly.

If you guys want to switch mercs that's fine, just let me know first so I can discuss it with the person who has the merc previously. Or better yet talk to each other about it (I was gonna suggest the discord server but I just remembered that Giddly left it, so I guess you can talk about this by using the comments in this post).

If you wanted to switch with me then give me reasons to and I will gladly switch.

If you guys don't want to take part of this collab that's fine too, I don't mind as long as you can tell me why. I'm not here to hold you at gun point and tell you to take part.

I want you guys to have fun with this. If you guys would rather do something else, or your too busy, or stuff is going on right now and you can't handle this atm that's fine. I just thought it was a fun idea to have and create something fun together, that's all.

Let me know if you want to be a part of this so that I can discuss it with each of you. Thank you for your time. 😁💖✨

It sucks how much people genuinely think that supporting something in a fictional context is the same as supporting that thing in real life :((

Like, do you people really truly believe that fictional characters are in any way equivalent to real life people? Do you understand how absolutely ridiculous that sounds?

“But they’re minors/siblings/victims/etc!” NO THEY’RE NOT. They are a figment of someone’s imagination that can have literally any traits you want them to cause fiction is something made to be manipulated for our viewing pleasure. That’s why AUs are a thing. That’s why headcanons are a thing. Cause fiction is meant to be manipulated for you to enjoy! You can’t have headcanons for a real life person. Because real people are not the same as fictional people. At least, I hope you don’t treat real people like they are fictional characters.

“But why would you want to ship [insert thing here]? It’s gross!” Okay, and? It isn’t hurting any actual real person, and it could even be helping someone who is using this to cope with their own trauma! And no, your personal discomfort is not a reason to completely delete content cause you can easily just block the tag/the creator and never see it. It is your responsibility to curate your own experience and if you are incapable of doing that, it is your responsibility to stay out of fandom spaces until you are mature enough to do so. It is not the responsibility of everyone else in the world to cater to your specific needs. You shouldn’t expect every single person to have the exact same needs as you and the exact same ways of coping with said needs.

“But groomers will use this thing to manipulate vulnerable people!” Indeed, that does happen. But it is not the fault of the person who made the content. It is always, and I mean always, the fault of the groomer themself. By saying “I was groomed by this content” you take away the responsibility of the actual groomer who did it. Don’t absolve them of their crime because of what they used for the crime. No matter what, it was always their fault and the responsibility of that is on their shoulders. Even if that content didn’t exist, they would’ve found some other way to groom you because that is simply who they chose to be and that is the unfortunate and sad truth.

It is completely okay to be uncomfortable with something! Grossed out even! Or something can be literally triggering for you. That is okay! And if someone doesn’t tag their content properly and it gets to you, you have every right to be mad about that! But that does not mean the person who made the content needs to delete what they made. You just have to block them so that you’ll never see their content again. You don’t even have to engage with them. That’s the beauty of the internet! We’re all strangers and once someone is blocked, it’s as if they never even existed! You’ll never meet them irl or be forced to interact with them. They are dead to you.

Also side note, but helpful information! When you block someone on Tumblr, their posts can still end up on your dash if someone else reblogs from them. Idk if Tumblr has changed this in the few years I’ve been gone, but a way around that is to add their blog name to your filtered content! That way, even if someone else reblogs from them, it’ll still be hidden from you :D

On to the second scene where Sousuke overreacts to a threat that doesn't exist and damn, Full Metal Panic is a psychological horror from his perspective, huh?

An unknown threat that could make their move at any time, and an innocent young girl's life and happiness rests on your shoulders, but she resists at every turn, because you're forbidden to tell her about the threat. A culture completely alien to everything you know, and your tools and comfort objects are constantly confiscated because the authorities around you can't fathom you needing them; after all, this country isn't at war...! Except you know better.

Unlike any other story where my sense of empathy turns a scene that's supposed to be comedic into something heart wrenching, I can still see where it's supposed to be funny. Like Sousuke just grabbed what he thought was a remote weapon and, while scrambling to figure out what to do with it, got hit by a truck and got flung into a bike rack. And then the dude's like, oh thank God, my briefcase full of spaghetti--! It's incredibly slapstick.

[sonicboomseason3]

I have an episode idea!

Ok so basically it’s about Shadow deciding to participate in a game show for some reason (my guess either for ego inflating reasons or a prize of some sort like a large sum of money or an ancient mech), but he doesn’t have anyone to fill out his local edgelord duties for him while he’s gone, he can’t have Sonic fill in for him, heavens no, he thinks Tails is like 3 and too young for the job, Sticks is too insane, Amy too pink I guess? And Knuckles is Knuckles. So who does he ask? Silver the hedgehog (and possibly Mephiles too), hilarity ensues.

ALKSDJLAJLFSJALJ HEY THIS COULD ACTUALLY BE AN IDEA i have some thoughts on how to expand upon this concept...... and so i created what you see below instead of making bullet points like a normal person

(takes place sometime after this post and this post)

. . .

"...and because I'm getting paid below minimum wage at my job, I applied for Veggies Gone Edgy," Shadow finished explaining to his audience.

Team Sonic was baffled. Shadow was standing in front of them, wearing sunglasses and yet another Hawaiian shirt and looking as self-assured as ever despite...everything he had just said. Veggies Gone Edgy? Seriously? That one game show hosted by Comedy Chimp where contestants make weapons out of celery sticks and asparagus and kick each other's butts with them?

"Who're you and what've you done with Shadow?!" Sticks demanded to know, brandishing her boomerang threateningly. The Shadow she knew would never resort to using pea shooters! He would just use regular shooters! "Which android are you?!"

One of Sonic's hands shot out to block her from tackling Shadow. He wasn't in the mood to watch one of his team members die. "Shadow, all I asked was why you were wearing that, and that didn't answer anything."

"It's part of the dress code." Shadow raised his sunglasses to rest upon his brow. "The theme for this episode is summer fun."

Sonic nodded slowly, absorbing the information. Forgive him if he was having a hard time reconciling summer and fun with Shadow the Hedgehog. "Okaaaay... and why are you doing this when you don't have to?"

"I told you, you daft idiot. I'm underpaid."

"I think what Sonic meant," Amy interrupted, "was that you don't actually need any more money. You can afford anything you want with what you currently have. You don't have to pay rent or anything, since you live in a cave."

"That's the great thing about living in nature!" Knuckles grinned before holding up a hand. "High five!"

Shadow smacked it away. Knuckles decided that counted.

"Fine, you got me. The truth is, I'm participating because Infinite, that pathetic, grungy, loser mutt who wears that freak mask to hide his ugly mug, applied in a futile attempt to prove himself as a bigger edgelord than me. I'm going to show him who's boss."

The others had no words.

"But because I'm going to be busy being edgy on set, I won't be around to be edgy around the village. Which is a problem," Shadow mused aloud. "Who else will be around to walk around hating everything? That's why I've called you all here."

"You want one of us to fill in for you?" Tails felt like he was picking up on what Shadow was putting down. "I don't think that's--"

Shadow snorted before he could finish. "Chaos, no. I don't need to even consider it for half a second to know none of you fools can measure up to my presence. I called you all here precisely so I could rub in why you're no good."

"Have you ever thought of considering why your attitude is no good?" Amy hissed.

"Never. For starters, you." He pointed a rude finger at her. "Your color palette is the least edgy thing I've ever seen. You're better off masquerading as a pony in some cartoon about friendship."

"Excuse me?!"

He redirected his attention towards Sticks. "You're not it because I don't need people saying that my substitute swims in the local landfill for sport."

Sticks sighed wistfully. "None of you will ever get it..."

"You, fox, are out of the question." Shadow looked down his nose at Tails. "You're 6 months old."

"I thought you said I was 3."

"So, you admit it."

Tails blinked. "Huh?"

"You admit you're 3."

"What? No. I'm just saying you think I'm--"

"You admit you're 3 months old."

"Three months? Nonono, hold on, when did--"

"As for the echidna..." Shadow trailed off as he peered at Knuckles, who smiled somewhat bashfully under his unreadable gaze. After a brief staring contest, the black hedgehog sighed and quickly moved on to the team's leader. "Last but not least, Sonic, you seem like the best option, but..."

"...But...?" Sonic prompted.

"I don't like you."

Sonic resisted the urge to roll his eyes. "I saw that coming."

"And people confuse us to be each other enough already," Shadow added. "I don't know why, considering we look nothing alike."

Sonic nodded, a gesture that indicated surprisingly genuine agreement. "Yeah, that's always been annoying. That's a pretty valid reason, actually."

"Speak for yourself." Tails was still pretty put out over how Shadow was under the impression that he was aging backwards. Which was literally impossible, by the way. "If none of us are good enough for you, then who is?"

"No one is. Don't ask stupid questions," Shadow replied. "I know when to settle for less when I have to, though, so I have no choice but to ask someone outside of our usual circle."

Before anyone could ask him to explain himself, he starts making a beeline for the door.

Amy's eyes followed his retreating form. "Where are you going?"

"To destroy the world."

Team Sonic spent no more than 2 seconds freaking out over this blunt admission and getting their weapons out before a portal opened above them and dropped a familiar face in between them and Shadow, who stopped walking as soon as he heard the sound behind him. Still, he didn't turn around.

"Shadow the Hedgehog!" Silver glared, skipping all pleasantries. "I'm from a future where you destroyed the world and I somehow still exist even though my planet doesn't! I plan on stopping you, no matter what!"

"Ah, just the one I was looking for."

He faltered slightly at those unexpected words, but he refused to drop his battle stance completely. "Excuse me?"

"I need you to fill in for my edginess while I'm off participating in a game show." Shadow finally turned around to look him in the eye. "It's imperative that you succeed."

"Wh... Okay, I don't understand a word of what you just said, but why would I help you when you destroyed my world?!" Silver shouted.

"Do this, and your world will be safe."

"Shadow, you did not just create a whole timeline where you destroyed the world only so you could summon Silver here to act like you." Sonic was the first to break the stunned silence that befell his entire group. He couldn't believe this... Actually, never mind, he could. Shadow would do this. He would. "You really couldn't pick someone from the village in our time?"

"Do you think I can rely on any of those nitwits?" Shadow shot back.

"Do you think you can rely on Silver?" Sonic paused before turning to the newcomer. "No offense."

"None taken, but if this will really save the future..." Silver took a deep breath. Shadow wanted him to act edgy, did he? He still didn't get why, but he had a feeling that he shouldn't ask for more context. The Hawaiian shirt was already a red flag by itself. Lowering his voice in a poor attempt at emulating Shadow's own, he exclaimed, "It's no use!"

Sticks could detect any lame, overused meme from a mile away. "You're not funny," she told him, though her words were mainly aimed at the author who had just made him say such things.

"Ah, sorry..."

"We'll work on it. You just need to be in the correct mindset first." Shadow grabbed his soon-to-be replacement by the arm. "I'm taking you to get a dye job. I'm sure it'll help with everything else."

Before anyone could protest, the two of them teleported away in a flash of blue light.

"Guys..."

Sonic, Tails, Amy, and Sticks turned to face Knuckles.

"The more we interact with Shadow, the more I feel embarrassed to know him."

The others found that they shared the sentiment.
