Why do we hate John Winchester for literally being a Vietnam war vet with just heaps of trauma on top of his trauma with trauma sauce, who didn't do a great job as a dad for sure. Still he did the best he could with the cards he was dealt.... yet we forgive Sam who literally went to Stanford and spent 15 seasons bitching and moaning about how life's not fair. To his brother who literally spent what felt like lifetimes being tortured in hell to save his sorry ass, lost everyone he ever loved, had a shot at the family of his dreams and had to give it up to keep them safe, AND kept a good attitude about the whole thing?
Honestly? Fuck Sam Winchester right in the bellybutton.
Leave me alone why did you send me this

I saw your post and got super worried because I assumed it was the artist I've loved since they started here on tumblr. So, I went on the dreaded 🐦 app and low & behold, stan culture ruins things once again! Kinda glad I wasn't around during the heyday of GOT because it must've been absolutely insufferable! 😖😖😖
Fandom during GOT's prime must have been insane already, but I do think it's gotten worse in recent years. There used to be the unspoken rule of "if you've got nothing nice to say don't say anything at all" that appears to have completely vanished from fandom spaces. Cuz if I see a post with an opinion I don't like/agree with, or fanart of a character I don't care for, or fic of a ship that I dislike, I'm not gonna leap down OP's throat about it. I'm just gonna scroll, maybe vague post about it on another app (I've vague posted about some dumb Twitter opinions on here on occasion), and then move on. But this idea that, if someone doesn't like the same things you like, they're not only morally reprehensible but personally committing some kind of wrong against you specifically is insane. It's more than that trend I've mentioned about trying to equate fandom with morality, it is, as I said in the tags of that post, something that reeks of insecurity. There's a bunch of people in varying fandom spaces that feel that their own opinions simply must be validated, because their opinions are correct, but it's not enough for them to think it, other people need to think it too.
And it's an issue that has dominated Team Black in HOTD specifically. Cuz I'm not seeing it from Rhaenicents, from Greens, even from show casuals. It's diehard Team Black and primarily TB book purists at that who find Rhaenicent fanart (especially ones that take Emma D'Arcy's actual appearance into account), or Team Green posts, or even regular posts expressing any sort of appreciation for Team Green actors or sympathy for some of the characters (especially Alicent or Helaena) and just lose their minds. Insult the poster or the artist, deride actor's appearances, weaponize actual political language to support their point despite no real tangible thread of connection ('killing Lucerys is basically femicide' omegas aren't a real thing and killing that boring ass boy is not, in fact, femicide, there are actual femicides happening in the real world right now, focus on those), and get hopping mad at the fact that these varied posts exist. It's greed to an almost biblical proportion tbf, it's not enough that most show casuals agree with their opinions, that most people with both book and show knowledge are on their side, that the narrative of the show supports their views (in the Jaehaera art thing specifically, that canon dictates she's gonna die and that Daenaera and Aegon are gonna be married and have a reasonably happy married life). Everyone needs to be on their side, nobody had better dare have opposing views to their's. And if those opposing views exist, well then those people have earned all the nastiness that's gonna get thrown their way for having those opposing views.
Like, you're that insecure? You need everyone to agree with you in order to hold fandom opinions? You can't just like something for your own reasons and ignore people who don't agree? Other people, people who don't even know you exist, hold that much power over you? Team Black, are you guys really so pathetically weak?
Anyway, fuck people who tag butch Rhaenicent art with snippy "Daemicent!!!" quote tweets, fuck people running TG fanartists off of social media because you can't handle drawings, fuck people going up to actors and saying vile shit to them based on their characters, fuck everyone who tries to be an asshole about Olivia's looks or TGC's looks or Phia's looks, and fuck stan culture. Everyone's who's so deranged about their fictional opinions that they act nasty to real human beings should simply find the nearest noose and hang themselves by the neck until dead, the world will be an infinitely better place and no one will miss them.

my self-indulgent hc for Brassius is that he commissions and supports other artists wholeheartedly and tips them extras without hesitation. I like to think he grew up sorta lower-middle class and only became rich and famous in his 30s so he completely understands the difficulties of baby artists or just straight up the struggles of starting out in this industry. fr he’s been through the combination of chronic illness + depression + stress in his early career days so he definitely understands???
Literally; Oh, what a lovely sunflora you painted earlier during your tour of the sunflora daycare, how much would you be willing to part it for? $50? Oh dear LORD no here is a $600 cheque plus a $200 tip, take it I will not accept refunds I’ll be hanging this painting up in my studio later.
Or some kid on poketwitter drew him as a sudowodo or sunkern for fun and the next thing you know theres 10k likes bc the offical account of the Artazon Gym has retweeted your doodle and had @ you with: “absolutely lovely work! do you take commissions? please send a dm request over so we may discuss the details!” (And then he commissions two fullbodies of him and hassel as pokemons)

Robin was momentarily startled when she felt the larger precursor's claw boldly press up firmly against her stomach and if not for the sheer shock of their guile the researcher would surely have left the room sporting a fractured hand, because his hulking size would not spare him from her ire.
It took her a second to slap away his intrusive touch, yet despite the strength she packed behind it they did not flinch in pain, yet still they heeded her warning strike.
"Apologies, we are simply curious if you were receptive.." He clarified his intent behind the rude action, but they didn't sound apologetic at all, instead it's projected voice seethed with quiet intrigue.
They pulled away but not far, instead electing to hover close to her despite her obvious irritation, circling her curiously, the tablet they were once rhoving through long forgotten in lieu of Robin's presence.
"Look I don't know what that means, but we humans don't like people we aren't familiar with touching us without permission! It's intrusive! And considered rude!" Robin grit out glaring back defiantly at the large silver precursors, imposing or not this asshole wasn't about to grind her nerves, it was easy to recognize how her architect differed amongst the rest of his caste.
So far many were intrusive and rude.
She wished Al-an or Ryley were there with her, but realized easily it would not be wise to have either of her companions present when trying to negotiate, still it was intimidating dealing with the alien alone, the precursor before her was enigmatic past his obvious interest in her, it was also the odd hue he kept flaring every time she spoke that unnerved her..
"Do not fret fragile one I am simply curious..."
"Your rude that's what you are! But that's beside the point. I'm not here to talk about you, im here to talk about Al-an."
"To think such a feeble creature has triggered such controversy amongst us, he plans to defect, surely you are aware of this...?"

@nightdied asked: “what happened back there?” (fs verse) // addressing the elephant in the room
"NOTHING—" He responds, too quick and insistent for it to be anywhere near the truth, shoving his hands in his pockets as he sways back and forth, decidedly NOT looking Tommy in the eye. Michael isn't SUPPOSED to be causing anything, an unfortunate consequence of his role as a counselor that he didn't even want to do. Not that he cares much for the requirements of the job, but if he's sent back early he's only in for MORE trouble than he got himself into right before his father made him take this job ( as if he hadn't already made his disappointment clear enough ).
Besides, he didn't start shit this time— he just doesn't know if anyone is going to believe him.
"The Goodes aren't really my biggest fans." He tilts his head to where Will was now heading towards his cabin. "Don't think he's too happy I rank above him here." Maybe Michael had thrown an abrasive comment back— it's easy to fall into when everyone seems to look at him as if he's deplorable. "Look, I'm not gonna start shit here, okay? No need to 'reel me in' before I fuck something up and leave a mess for you to clean up, or whatever you're trying to do."
