#tbf ppl can do what they want in fandom and I don't have to engage with it but i'm so starving for kyman content the brainrot is too much

[numbknee]

this isn’t a new hot take of mine but it still blows my MIND that I’m in the minority in the kyman fandom when it comes to thinking of Kyle as a dom/top and Cartman as a sub/bottom. From what I’ve heard from veteran kymans the fandom barely had ANY sub Cartman truthers in its earlier years, and dom Cartman is still extremely popular to this day. There's so much art/fics where Kyle is like... a pain slut (????) or gagging for Cartman’s giant dick (?????????) but any time I see that stuff I get a visceral, skin-crawling HELL FUCKING NO 😬😬😬 reaction and have to back out immediately.

A mutual once told me something like “I can’t write Cartman as a dom, I think I’d break out in hives or something” and that’s p much exactly how I feel lmao 😆

y'all do you ig, but it's not my cup of tea at all.

An extensive - probably exhausting - post on this blog and my stance on things skating related atm...

Ask me anything if something is unclear in my inbox!

In the last days I thought about how my blog will be and if I want to change something now that Yuzu has gone pro and what you can expect from me in the future.

I also received lots of new followers since Beijing 2022 and though I am pretty sure you notice yourself what kind of account this is - maybe the reason you followed - I want to put some things in words.

I am sorry that this is rather long and maybe not needed as things won't change much in here. Just most of you know I tend to talk a lot (see why Twt character limit kills me!)

A short introduction on me and my skating journey as a fan...(skip it if you already know this 😅)

You can call me Jenni and I am from Germany 😊 Thank you for following my mess of a blog!

I roughly follow figure skating now for 15 years. I originally followed mostly ladies in the Yuna and Mao era and Pairs. After Yuna's retirement (btw congrats on your engagement Yuna 🎉) I developed an interest for men skating when I saw Yuzu's Parisienne Walkways. I knew Yuzu's name long before that, but never followed his path as closely. It drastically changed after Sochi 2014. Because I lost track of my Yuzu content on my main blog I started this Yuzu blog. In December 2015 (I think 😅) this blog was started. With the GP series in 2015 I discovered Shoma's skating and started to keep track of Shoma as well. I especially loved and still love the Yuzu/Shoma dynamic. In the next years I started to learn all about how to differentiate jumps etc and how scoring works. So even if I am by far an expert I know what I am talking about when we talk about scoring. I don't just follow the most popular opinion on things and learned to demand proof for certain complaints. This way you can always find out who just repeats and who actually knows stuff.

Now back to my original post intention...

I have always emphasized that this is a Yuzu AND Shoma blog! This won't change!

But ofc admittedly I suppose in the near future you will see more about Shoma than Yuzu on here especially when the competitions start. You will find infos on Shoma's competitions, any shows Yuzu or Shoma participate in and my opinion on things skating related and some complaints about fandom and fans probably

I will keep my account name as it is though as it's still true. (my account name is "Spring Awakening" musical song reference for anyone wondering)

Tbh I also have lost some of my enthusiasm about skating in the last years. So sometimes you will find me uninspired or not being active much. It's not really related to Yuzu or Shoma, just a general feeling that fandom has changed for worse in my opinion (the unnecessary fights and policing about who I am allowed to support is getting on my nerves). But maybe it bothers me more now or part of me has grown up and moved on from the fandom, because while it's annoying I often think "whatever" and not really care much anymore, not much is getting to me now. There were times I thought about deleting all accounts altogether or retiring them but I decided against it, because I am not yet ready to give up on this sport, my faves and I still enjoy the interactions with you and the lovely ppl I met through competitions and yeah tbf I can't keep my mouth shot 😅 Also I invested so much time in this blog - while I also had lots of fun - , I don't want it gone. I am kinda proud of this.

Just for clarification: I am not anti Nathan or Yuma or any of Yuzu's or Shoma's rivals. In fact I think all skaters at elite level are admirable, just that some skaters' skating are not my cup of tea. Sorry Nate and Yuma. I think there is absolutely no reason for hate on any skater - being critical is not hate per se (Unless there is specific horrendous rumors/facts about a person like antisemitism, abuse or any of that kind I have no reason to hate any of them)

The ISU is a touchy subject as I do think there is loads to change about it and I am not a fan of the direction the sport is taking, especially in ladies. Reforms are needed. You will see me complain about scoring! But keep in mind 1st I don't claim to be an expert, 2nd though I try to be objective I am certainly biased, 3rd I don't agree with ppl saying Shoma's scores are all whack bc some is indeed too high but some other qualities also not rightfully awarded, 4th I don't necessarily think the wrong ppl win even if I don't agree on some scores.

I love this sport a lot and I personally love going to competitions and tbh I am more into competitions than shows. It's the way it is. I also watch all disciplines, but ofc here I post about Yuzu and Shoma.

I will always share my opinion on everything skating related that interests or bothers me, but it's an opinion of many so I don't need anyone to agree with me. It's a personal take on things and I also always tag it with #personal. I am not telling you what to think ever, I can only offer MY perspective and personal experience or knowledge. Btw I don't do this blog for followers or likes (you can't even see how many followers I have on here - a feature I love) so like not like, love or hate my content I don't care. This is for me mostly, I am happy though if I have mutuals here 😊

In the last year I received lots of asks in my inbox and tbh I wasn't used to this before. I cannot promise to answer all of you, but be sure that I do read all of it and that I am happy when I can help or just laugh and celebrate with you. (I also read tags in the reblogs so you know) It may take time to answer, so please be patient with me.

The current plan for this season is to go to the Nebelhorn Trophy, GP France and the GPF for the 2022-2023 season. I always love to meet new skating fans, so write me a message if you want to meet me in person at an event.

For further information about me 😅: (gosh this is so stupid, seems like an advertisement for myself 🙈)

Don't feel obligated to follow any of the following accounts, I just don't want to hide how this account isconnected.

I do post about skating on my main, just not as actively as here. If you want to see my posts about ladies skating, sometimes Pairs and Ice Dance you can follow my main account @jennibeultimate (it also feautures gymnastics) - you may have noticed that I answer with this account on posts here as well.

I posts photos from competitions and some fanarts on my Instagram of the same name. It's content created by me only. So probably my most personal public account.

I do have a Twitter account and you can follow it if you wish, but it's neither as organized nor will I replicate most of the content from here and you will also see lots of other skaters. It's all very messy imo, but maybe you want to give it a try. My accounts are not really connected though.

Thank you for following and thank you for reading! ❤️

I would be happy to hear your thoughts on this blog and it's future and if there is anything you want to tell me!
