#I'm so angry and sad and hurt

[hummingbee-o0o]

You know why this sucks so very especially?

Because we get so little to begin with. Us queer folks, neurodivergent folks, disabled folks, assorted minority folks -- we get so little to begin with. So few stories that are kind and loving and joyful, where we get to be loved and embraced and where we get to have fun and have a happy ending -- we get so few of them

And now they took one of them away. And for us one is already so many.

I'm crying, because I don't think there's ever been a story that mattered so much to me. A story that appreciated people like me, that welcomed people like me, that welcomed other people, and that welcomed the fans so much. A story created with so much joy and love.

I'm so happy we got what we got, and that is not going away, it will never go away, because it's there, forever, and I love it.

I'm not going anywhere. And you know what? Neither is the story we got.

"Yeah, but we talked about it and I didn’t want it." "Why not?" "Because it scared me."

Fuck I hate being an adult. I need a more adult adult to help with the volatile emotional situation.

[impala-dreamer]

is this too romantic? am I going too far? is there any other way to write romance than all in, all encompassing, perfectly magical? no. this is fine.

Also re: the last "if you try to make it perfect you won't make it at all" post

Vent art, though coupled to a bad moment in time, is very liberating and works incredibly well to push against this perfectionist mindset. At least for me.

When I'm feeling bad and draw, then there's only me and the emotions I wanna put on canvas. It means there are no breaks. There's only one session. Hence, no time to clean everything up or work too long on it. It's just this little time window I have in which I have to finish a piece and make it 'good enough' - to let it all out and convey what I feel.

I usually really love my vent art. Even though it's not as clean and I see many mistakes (anatomy, framing etc.). Yet many times I love those pieces more than the others.

Hi! I’ve recently visited your page again, after a longer tumblr break and saw your posts about people’s comments on your fics. It made me both sad and angry. Sad because they’ve managed to take away your joy for writing Supercorp and angry that people feel like they can type out any hurtful thought that goes through their head, for a thing that is absolutely free and made with so much passion and care. 😒🤬

For what it’s worth, I always loved the way you write both of them. AND the fact that you don’t ignore Kara’s trauma and struggles. “i’m spilling all my words (but you keep 'em to yourself)” will forever be one of my favorites. Thank you for the hours of joy and fun you have given us! I hope you know that for every entitled commenter there are ten times more people who love your works! 🫵🏻🤘🏻

ahh thank you so much, i appreciate this. i have to say, sc still has me by the neck, i do plan to finish that fic & maybe write some more but it won't be anytime soon. i had hoped that the fandom would calm down with the kara hate after the show ended but i was wrong, it still hasn't changed.

when you've been writing for sc for so long, the frustration builds up, & there have been many times where i felt like i needed to (& did) restrict myself when writing them. it stops being enjoyable when people are constantly calling kara 'stupid' & insult her in many different ways for not being the happy sunshine kara danvers who takes care of lena all the time.

personally i love reading & writing the reverse situation (lena who's being the patient loving one & also the shoulder for kara to lean on) because the show didn't give us enough of that. unfortunately, people don't respond well whenever kara is struggling with her issues & lena isn't the one who's being comforted.

i write what i like & that's what i'm always going to do, but this build up of frustration over the past years & always anticipating kara hate every fic/chapter killed the joy a lot.

i've seen some authors speak about this too & it's genuinely sad to see! people can like & dislike whatever but it's important to note that there are readers out there who don't realize that their personal feelings against kara also affect authors & their love for writing supercorp

I'm in such a crappy mood because this panel discussion is on Wednesday and still not a single member of my group has contributed to anything (we're supposed to be posting and talking in a forum). Not even a hello except for one person who sent me a personal email at 12:30 last night apologizing because she didn't know there even was a forum. Honey are you telling me you haven't checked the online classroom at all over reading week + the weekend??? While you undoubtedly had other work that required you check the online classroom?? I actually just feel really sad. Just down and sad.

what I think would happen to Tumblr if users would stop going "you have to reblog this, you have no choice" or "if you don't reblog this you are clearly a horrible person/I will find you"

just a thought, you don't have to. could ygs stop that? please, with a cherry on top?? I'd really appreciate it, thank you !!!
