#But sometimes... sometimes it's for funsies

[letsgobarbs]

a lot of my friends and a few people who are a lot more eloquent than me have rightfully pointed out the growing racism in the tlou fandom. and usually i would've reblogged one of their posts. but i find that whenever those posts get traction or notes or agreement, all those amazing people get absolutely swamped by tone policing, scathing, dismissive hate anons and racist vitriol at worst. this is a reminder that if you think BIPOC creators are "doing too much" or they need to "relax" and "just don’t engage, instead of ruining everybody else's experience", then you need to take a step back and think about why your entertainment is more important than their shared painful experiences.

The few posts you've seen floating around are not because people called out the racism and zionism within the tlou— BIPOC people aren't out here for funsies trying to snatch toys. Many wonderful blogs kindly shared informative, educational, well formed resources to better understand the last of us and the harm it was inflicting on minoritised communities. They never asked you to not engage with the content or to stop watching, they only asked that you consume it with awareness and without letting it inform your worldview in a way that could be harmful. and MANY blogs decided to take issue with that by vaguely posting about it:

which then grew to overtly posting about how everyone was ruining your fun:

Being so utterly dismissive of the experiences and labour that BIPOC creators have performed to educate you and help you is wildly insane and at the end of the day immensely racist. They didn't owe you the hand-holding, spoon-feeding experience, but i've seen them go above and beyond in their efforts to connect and explain. And if they are short, angry, and upset then they have every right to be after you called them 'losers with dog shit takes'. They aren't butthurt over uwu fandom community things, you've been directly racist to them.

They called out the harmful themes in a media we all consumed. You took that as a personal assault. And decided to shit on them because you didn't know how to deal with feelings of guilt and being wrong other than to be viciously defensive. This is something that was unsurprising and we see it almost everyday. But don't you dare claim yourself or your blog as a safe space for nobody if you can't sit with the fact that sometimes we're wrong about things. All some of y'all had to do was say, "damn that's crazy, not gonna line their pockets but can't help reading these great Joel Miller fics." Or "Yikes, i know this stuff is problematic but that guy looked so hot." And call it a day. You can't tell me that show is SO life changing, so sublime, that amazingly written and shot, that you guys are going down fighting for it. So, at this point, you're just fighting for your privilege to place your comfort, your entertainment and your enjoyment over the trauma, experiences and labour of the BIPOC community.

streamerboyfriend yuji x fem!reader PART TWO!

non-sorcerer!au, yuji is not a vessel, he’s just a goofy guy

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* 　　 *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

streamerboyfriend!yuji who beefs with his chat over you. seeing as his audience is mainly girls, the moment they’re introduced to you, and the more you become a regular ‘guest’ on your boyfriend’s streams the ‘can yuji fight?’ comments start rolling in.

‘YES i can fight’

starts talking about fights he was in during highschool and pointing to his muscles (not flexing for the chat, simply holding his arm out) and says LOOK to prove he can hold his own😭🙏

streamerboyfriend!yuji who starts whining like a petulant child when you start playing along with the chat </3

streamerboyfriend!yuji who lowkey actually really loves that everyone thinks his girlfriend is so pretty, because you are!!!

OOOOO when his fans start editing you too??? he’s reposting sm😭

not ALL of them, but the good ones with songs he KNOWSS you like? yeah

sending all the ones he doesn’t repost to you

‘baby!!! look, ur so prettyyyy everyone thinks so!’

streamerboyfriend!yuji who UNFORTUNATELY is an attractive, charming, silly, kind guy with a majority female audience. now don’t get it twister, he loves the support, he loves connecting with fans through chats, and he LOVES the kind, genuine ones. however, like with all attractive guys like yuji, there are some fan girls who may hate you because they have the most intense crush on him, and some even, with how much easier it is to connect snd be personable through streaming, have a parasocial relationship with him.

any hate you get in chat? he already instructed the mods to get ON it so he doesn’t even have to say anything

any hate for you that comes up on his fyp or timeline (which is rare, due to his algorithm anything he sees in relation to his pretty girl is usually overwhelmingly positive) he has that person BLOCKED and sometimes goes to your phone to block them for you too😭

any hate messages you get? also blocked!

he doesn’t want to openly fight back, because of his following it would be too public and all around just not a good look, although you had to convince him of this

but over time people noticed the blocking and the few people (and i mean few, most of his fans love you) who were hating and being mean got the hint (most of them anyway, there’s still some crazy ones)

streamerboyfriend!yuji who helps you out with your socials when you inevitably get a larger following through his fans flocking to your socials🫶

that is if you were okay with yuji tagging you in posts! if you wanted to keep your socials private he’d obviously be all for that! he’s so supportive!

but!!! if you were okay and comfortable with getting a bigger following, he’d help you manage stuff!!! (would even try to convince you to stream yourself!)

‘c’mon cutie! you’d be so good!!’

‘they love you on my streams, i already know they’d watch yours too!’

‘more content of the pretty girllll’

streamerboyfriend!yuji who eats it up when you start getting sponsors and shit if you gradually start gaining your own fan base from whatever it is you do with your following😭

beauty content??? girl what is all this makeup in your shared apartment, but he listens to you talk anyway (a photo of him posing like a fucking idiot with some expensive product you got sent is uploaded on your ig story)

food/cooking/baking content??? PLEASE let him be in your videos to try the food😭 if you get invited to some nice ass restaurant and it’s a day he can’t go??? he WILL be pouting like a scolded child when you get home

cosplay content? your couples halloween costume goes CRAZY

your own gaming content?? if you play scary games he’ll sit beside you while you stream for funsies and fans love watching you two shit yourselves together over jumpscares😭 (i’m thinking the re8 baby has you both jumping out of your chairs)

whatever it is, he’s there for it, our supportive boy!

streamerboyfriend!yuji who is not nonchalant at all, he doesn’t care that he’s technically an internet celebrity (he hates that term, do NOT say it to his face, it makes him feel so weird), you’re still HIS girl

he WILL be reposting your tik toks of just you looking pretty, he WILL be reposting your ig posts and stories onto his, he’s GOTTA hype you up

will reply to a comment or two from his fans who are still at it with the ‘can yuji fight????’ shit just to be funny because he silly like that

streamerboyfriend!yuji is also, not only your boyfriend, but your bestfriend and you playfully bicker on stream ALL the time. when you first started appearing on his streams he was so sweet and nice and calm in contrast to how loud and stupid he usually acts

but when you become a regular guest he’s throwing quips right back, and any little remark you make??? jaw to the floor like its the most offensive thing any one has ever uttered

‘BABE i’m gonna get u cancelled’

‘go say that on twitter’

(you didn’t even say anything bad, he’s just a goofy goober like that🫶)

streamerboyfriend!yuji who doesn’t let anything get to his head, who is genuine, who is humble, who doesn’t change who he is because people like him (and crush on him), he’s still your same old, sweet and kind boy who just now has girls making thirst edits of him accidentally flexing his biceps on tik tok <3

Random hcs that have been on my mind for the past couple days: now in doodle format!

Text for each drawing written out under the cut in case it's not clear or anyone wants to translate it!

(1) <- Somehow soft?? <-Sometimes makes a comforting hum/rumble <-Holding for support

(2) <-Walks so quietly everywhere he goes <-Is about to meet god

(3) <-Can't see well in the dark (no eyelights) <-Can't help himself

(4) <-Thinks Color will turn Killer against him and convince him to run away

(5) <-Thinks Nightmare is using them all for the negativity and has brainwashed Killer into liking it

(6) <-Thinks if he runs and jumps at Cross as fast as he can Cross will lift him and it'll look so cool

I usually don't care for infidelity in fics but anyway here's my thought.

Price has a bird back home and God, does he love her. She's everything to him.

So, after a night of drinking, when he wakes up in Nikolai's bed, he's shattered, and he flees. He ignores any attempts at contact and tries to be the very best partner he can for his woman.

Flowers one day, our for dinner the next. He's the perfect man.

Until Nikolai finds him in his local pub and corners him, demanding they talk. John can't find an escape, so he asks that they take it outside. He doesn't want anyone that knows him hearing what they're talking about and taking it back to his lassie.

He tries to approach it with reason. He truly does, but when he's pinning Nikolai to the cold wall of the pub and biting his lip whilst the other man squeezes at his cock over his jeans he finds himself asking, will it really hurt her if she never finds out?

bunny propaganda got to me 😔 [I was literally already planning bunny suit drawings]

Until canon wants to prove otherwise, you can pry the rock solid belief that Genesis Rhapsodos fucked right off and is living out his life on an apple farm somewhere, singlehandedly responsible for all the Banora White adverts all over Rebirth out of my cold dead hands.
