KANAYA: So Dear KANAYA: Have You Given Any Thought As To Who You Want To KANAYA: "Open Our Relationship" ROSE: *Sigh* ROSE: Sadly, no. I think you've spoiled me, darling. After dating a beautiful alien undead vampire, no one else holds the same appeal. ROSE: Maybe I'm just picky, but I feel like I need to have someone who can measure up to you. KANAYA: Maybe You Are Overthinking This Dear KANAYA: I Just Went Up To Vriska And Asked Her If She Wanted To Make Out KANAYA: Pro Tip KANAYA: If You Decide To Do The Same Be Prepared KANAYA: I Think Only Being With Terezi Makes Her Kiss Really Weird ROSE: I know I'm overthinking this, but it's just in my nature! ROSE: And it's not like there's any ladies who are also part eldritch monster just laying around. Pickings are rather slim. *LATER, AT A PARTY* JUNE: yeah, so i know we all promised to stop talking about how weird and convoluted our family tree was because it made hal short circuit whenever we tried to explain it. JUNE: but since feferi is sort of my great aunt or what ever, i'm technically the great-grandniece of a horrorterror! JUNE: isn't that cool rose? ROSE: ROSE: Do you like girls?

funniest fucking thing

Ao3 does not need an algorithm, you're just lazy

Ao3 does not need a 1-5 star rating system, you just want to bring down authors writing for FREE

Ao3 does not need automatic censorship, it is an archive, therefore anything can be posted

Writing or reading about something illegal does not mean the author nor the reader condones it, if that were true, you could never read a story involving anything negative

Purity culture is ruining fan culture and you all are fucking annoying

ok im going to #seriouspost for a second here. I don't think Harry Potter is a manifesto. I think it was a flawed passion project that millennials latched onto because of the fantasy of sticking it to their mean teachers and arbitrarily categorizing themselves (hogwarts houses; it's the thinking millennial's astrology). I think the fact that the series got popular when and how it did was very much a product of its time.

I don't think Harry Potter is the biggest symbol of JKR's bigotry. I think the most flagrant sign of that was how she responded to critics. I watched her become radicalized in real time. I watched how she doubled down on her racism when she was called out for the ways she promoted her tragically mid fantastic beasts movies. I watched her chase marginalized teenagers with a double digit follower count off of twitter for daring to criticize her thought process, and no one with any kind of power standing against her because she was the one who was paying them. This isn't to say Harry Potter is without flaws. This is to say she really didn't give a shit about that. Getting rich and powerful is a hell of a drug, and she had enough sycophants that she had no reason to care about what her critics were saying.

She was convinced that she was a martyr; a voice for the unheard; a leader for the ages, so of course her detractors were the bad guys. And I think we should take this to heart. We should see this as an example of how easy it is to get radicalized; if you think of yourself as a paragon of virtue, you are going to think that whatever you see as good and right is an objective fact. Most people don't know this, but the majority of terfs start out as trans allies. You are not immune to propaganda! You are not immune to falling into dangerous ideologies!!!

This is why the most important thing you can do as an activist is to listen. Do NOT think you're above being wrong; do NOT develop a god complex; do NOT form an identity out of being right all the time. Involve yourselves in the groups you claim to speak for. Listen to trans women; share resources that help trans women; familiarize yourself with the diversity of experiences that trans people have and the struggles they face.

No, none of you are as bad as JKR because you don't have her money or her power. You will likely never have the capacity for harm she does. But check yourselves. Do not affirm yourselves into thinking you always have the moral high ground. Watch yourselves; humble yourselves; check yourselves for signs of cult behavior and internalized prejudice. You are always learning. You will always be learning. Do not allow yourselves to get a power trip from brushing off marginalized voices.
