The people getting assmad on my addition probably assume I think I hate people who make RPF of that I think it should be censored. I don't, I just think its creepy and that the people making I have genuinely unhealthy habits. I don't hate anybody, I was just making it clear that I am not affiliated with yall and yall are not affiliated with me.

Parasocial relationships aren't a funny haha thing, they can cause actual real mental damage and effect how you view certain people in a negative way. Its not as violent as the famous examples of parasocial relationships, but its still not a good thing. Its not a harmless crush anymore at that point.

It is dehumanizing, its objectifying a real human being and making them on level with a fictional character, 9 times out of 10 without their consent. I would think the proship community would kind of care about that??

But at the end of the day, the most I can do and will do is try and tell people that its wrong, that they should probably grow out of it, and avoid it when I can. I don't think we should tolerate or welcome RPF in the community, but I guess I'm in some kind of minority here.

💌 Ask Mail! 💌Once upon a time, asks were a big part of tumblr culture. It was a way to express appreciation to blogs you love and enjoy. 💖 It was a way to interact without awkwardness. 🌚It was a way to simply say hello to the blogs that make up your tumblr neighborhood mailboxes. 🏰 It was a way to share fondness for mutuals, or anyone you follow. So hello! You matter to a fellow blogger. 💜

You are the most wonderful friend! Your random asks giving appreciation are a highlight to my days 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

i had a thought of "do people not know what AUs are anymore?" and then i remembered nobody explains fandom stuff to new people anymore so it is entirely plausible people genuinely don't know what AUs are and nobody has explained it to them, so for today's lucky 10,000:

"AU" stands for "Alternate Universe" or "Alternative Universe" (same difference) and is basically any thought scenario for a fandom that isn't canon and can't fit within the canon universe. If it takes place in the canon universe but something is notably different, that is typically what's known as a "Canon divergent AU," because it diverges from canon.

an AU can be absolutely anything. There's a couple of widespread pan-fandom au scenarios that often get thrown around, like coffee shop aus, genderbend aus, hanahaki aus (hanahaki is a whole thing in itself i'd recommend researching on your own), etc. One you might hear sometimes is "crossover AU" which is when you have characters from one fandom interacting with characters from another.

You can have as many aus as you want. They can be whatever you want and you can do whatever you want in them. It's a sandbox for you to play around in and explore how things would be different or how the characters would act in those circumstances or environments. Maybe they have different relationships with each other. Maybe they behave slightly differently. Or you can just say "Okay, [x] is true. How did they get here? How would things have to be different for this to occur?" which can also be fun.

If you are ever confused about why people ship something that seems completely out of the blue or doesn't make sense to you in the canon setting, there's a good chance they like it in an AU setting! Not everything everybody is interacting with is necessarily the canon! Not everybody wants things to exist in canon and just want to explore playing dolls in a different sandbox and that's okay. And their sandbox might look a lot different than yours, and that's also okay. You have the freedom to make your sandbox whatever you please. Do whatever you want forever. Get funky with it. AUs are fun.

Okay that's my schpeal. everybody go have fun and play nice now.

The spouse is getting curious about tumblr

[batcavescolony]

Odysseus: I am different, I am no longer the man you married, it's been 20 long years but if you could just fall in love with me again?

Penelope: if you can do something for me

Odysseus: anything

Penelope: move my wedding bed.

Odysseus: I can't, it's made out of a living tree, to move it I would have to destroy it. How can yo-

Penelope: oh, I thought we were asking each other stupid questions?

Odysseus:

Penelope: 'FaLl iN lOvE wItH mE aGaiN' to do that I would have had to stop loving you.

Could you explain once again how posting on other social networks outside of Tumblr will work? (Like Twitter/Bluesky/Instagram etc.

Do you have a profile on these networks to be tagged or just #sonjet-week ?

There are no other socials officially for Sonjet week (I check my Bluesky like twice a month and haven’t touched my Twit or IG in over a year now probably lol) but if y’all wanna cross post your work on those platforms feel free to do so! It’s your work you can do whatever you want with it! The only thing is I do hope y’all will at least post it on tumblr so it can be reblogged here too lol

AO3 however is another story where when the week really rolls around a collection will be made for y’all to throw any fics (or if u post other fan stuff on ao3 that too) into it! So keep an eye out for the info post on that o7

do you think Shadow can just grow back limbs like a weird lizard?

[wardensantoineandevka]

is that piece of media actually bad, or is it just not following the blueprint you projected onto it? is that work actually not good, or are you just demanding something from it that is absolutely antithetical to its themes, genre, tone, and narrative goal? is that story actually poorly written, or do you just dislike that it is not the specific things you wanted from it that it never set out to be, never was, and never is going to become? is it actually bad, or is it actually well-executed and you just dislike the story it chose to be because it isn't catering to your specific desires and expectations?
