#get off tumblr

[orionsangel86]

There is a phenomenon happening on Tumblr right now which may be a product of the Twitter exodus or maybe its just modern fandom mentality vehemently rejecting the old, but you guys have GOT to stop being so damn MEAN about fandom.

There are posts circulating on Tumblr right now hating on so many aspects of fandom. Yeah we all know the incorrect quotes format can be cringe and most of the time its the same quotes used for every fandom ever reducing the characters to stereotypes. Yes we know most fandoms scramble to ship the two basic white guys over all the other characters. Yes we know your blorbo probably Does Not Fucking Say That. Yes we know A/B/O is weird AF (especially now its breached containment and found its way into mainstream hetero erotica). Yes we know SuperWhoLock was ridiculous and attempts to make modern shows into a new SuperWhoLock have got old fast.

But do you have to constantly drag these things all the time? Why is it suddenly cool and popular to ridicule and criticise and hate on peoples fun?

Let people be cringe

Let people play in the fandom sandbox

Let people have their fun

Not everything has to be an intellectual critique and it doesn't make you a better person to constantly shit on fandom ON THE FANDOM WEBSITE

Fandoms can be problematic, toxic, and infuriating at times. But all the negativity isn't making things better. Yeah okay some aspects of fandom can be annoying, but must we have so many call out posts go viral on here specifically for hating on parts of fandom culture? Yet people wonder why fandom creators are quitting and there isnt as much art and interaction on here as there used to be.

If you see another negative post shitting on aspects of fandom cross your dash, maybe think before you reblog it. Maybe ask yourself if that post may be hurtful to a mutual? Perhaps youve got a mutual who writers A/B/O or CharacterxReader fanfiction who doesnt wanna see your reblog of the callout post stating reader×character fanfic is gross, or perhaps your mutual creates fun text posts applying quotes to their fave characters and youve just reblogged a 90k+ note post calling them cringy and overdone.

Just THINK please. Its not necessary. We've got to be KINDER to each other. Please don't let this place become like Twitter. Twitter was a toxic cesspool where no one had anything worthwhile to add to the discussion, no one created, everyone was just screaming angry rants into the void. Dont let tumblr become like that, because it will be the death of this place. And where will you go to find fanart and gifsets of your blorbos then?

Hello Asmi…

Is there a chance you could say something mildly threatening to make me feel compelled to finish writing my fan fiction? It’s very difficult for me to write it because as much as I would love to read the story I wish to write I feel incredibly guilty going against the canon especially when I’ve only watched 28 of the 70, 50-100 minute long episodes ;0; *guilt intensifies*

Please Asmi… I’m begging you! Threaten me!!!

(Please don’t feel as though you are obliged to actually answer this ask I know you are busy :3)

Alright, listen up: WRITE. WRITE YOUR FANFICTION. Don't worry about going against canon or how much of the show you've watched. This is fanfiction. There aren't any rules.

Write. You said it yourself. You would love to read the story you wish to write. You don't need more of a reason than that.

That story cannot exist unless you take a breath, say a cordial I hear you, now shut the hell up to your doubts, and write it. Give it life. That story deserves to be told and read and loved.

WRITE BEFORE I MAKE YOU. I'm watching you. Yes, right now. SCOOT. COME BACK WHEN YOU'VE FINISHED WRITING THE FIC.

hey everyone Tumblrs on some shit rn so make sure to opt out of AI scraping your blog. It's on blog settings but i wouldn't be suprised if it would still take your work if say, a blog that doesn't have this enabled reblogs your stuff. Shitty website time to find a way off it.
