How to combat jealousy
Jealousy flares up -> that means the person has something nice. -> “good for them!” -> I’m happy for them.
How to stop being spiteful and scared of people
A hot feeling of dread and protective anger rises up as someone approaches -> “I’m going to pretend that I’m really nice to them” -> they are nice back -> people don’t hate me. I don’t need to be scared. Maybe I can be nice to them and mean it.
[making the conscious effort to say a sentence can make the sentiment true and dissolve the negative feeling]

If you hate Steve x Nancy then stop tagging all of your anti posts with the "Stancy" tag
This is asshole behavior. The only reason you do it is because you want to be an asshole. There is literally no reason to be an asshole over this.

I just realized ben 10 universe overall doesn't have much fanfics compared to the other cartoons or fandoms like it was around 160 or etc which is weird cause it's around from like 2005 or smth and it still has the potential to write about it think we need more writers for it really :(
Ben 10 has 7.8k fics on FFN, and 2.5k crossover fics.
On AO3, it's 3.3k fics, 1.1k of which are crossovers.
These are big numbers, don't get me wrong! But ATLA and Danny Phantom — both of which came out around the same time as Ben 10 — have 46k and 23.7k fics respectively, and that's just on FFN. Even a modern show like Miraculous Ladybug has 94k fics between both platforms.
When I started writing Ben 10 fics back in 2019, AO3 only had 800 of them.
Anon, you're absolutely right that Ben 10 has so much potential as a universe. And there should be way more people writing fics for it!
You know how to accomplish that, right?
Encourage writers! Leave comments on their fics! Engage with their ideas by reblogging or leaving them asks! Hell, learn to write yourself. Post your ideas, even if they're just bullet-point notes.
Foster a community. You will never get more fics by treating them like content to be consumed, enjoyed for a time, and then forgotten. You have to actually put in the time and effort to care about the stories and the person behind them.
I finished Cross Your Heart for one person. It's the most popular BenRook fic in the whole fandom, and I buckled down and wrote eight whole chapters of it long after I had lost interest because of one friend. Because she was excited about the fic, because she enjoyed talking about it, because she was so receptive to my ideas, because she made fanart for it, because she took the time to care not only about my art, but about me, and I wasn't about to let her down.
Care about your community, is what I'm saying. If you want more, give the creatives a reason to want to give you more.

If I recommend you a song and you put it on right away, the only logical next step for me is to kiss you on the lips
