#you all are rude as hell

Skuld in quantum design :)

transphobia aside, its also a huge pet peeve of mine when people are like “oh tee hee i havent actually engaged with the canon material at all aside from maybe a few clips on youtube, but ive decided the canon is stupid shit anyways and fanon is all that matters!” like not only does that just feel disrespectful and rude for no good reason, especially in the context of indie creators, but it personally annoys me as someone who always overthinks this shit and has several tabs open when im just making headcanons or whatever, let alone writing a fic. like you just dont care? what’s the point, then?

[eclecticopposition]

give meee... headcanons about the Sangfielle friends in the most boring AU you can imagine like. idk. office Sangfielle. grocery store Sangfielle. they all work at a movie theater. whatever sounds mundane as hell and you have Thoughts about :3

okay tumblr ate my fucking answer the first time. let's try this again.

the thing about these guys is that no matter how mundane you make it, they can make anything into a situation. that's just the guys they are. so we put them in a Walmart.

Marn is an employee with a great customer service voice. She's keeping it together in the face of some truly wild statements and requests. One man keeps asking for frootie hooties, a brand of cereal that he insists is real and everyone is just refusing to sell to him, and she's spent twenty minutes trying to tell him that they just don't have it in stock

Lye and Es are having an animated conversation in the clothing area, where she is examining various colorful dresses and he is distractedly picking things off of nearby shelves and putting them back down. The conversation started at how they got kicked out of dayward yve's novelty store and is now about whether stealing should be more or less of a crime than manslaughter, because it's not as bad as killing but it is on purpose. People are trying not to pay attention to them. Eventually they are asked to leave, at which point it is revealed that lye has about two hundred dollars worth of items in his pockets and es has some candles she liked and a new pair of shoes in hers. They are both barred from Walmart.

Duvall hates it here. It's loud, he hates the lights, the aisles make no sense, he can't find anything he's looking for, and people keep coming up to him to ask him where things are. He doesn't even work here. Why do people assume he works here? He's not even wearing any Walmart merchandise. Is that what it's called when you're an employee? Merchandise? Well, it's what it would be called if he wears it, which he never will, because he doesn't work here and never wants to. Have a nice day ma'am.

Pickman is slowly marching her way through the aisles one at a time, peering at her shopping list and holding a tiny shopping basket in one hand. She has to be very careful not to knock the shelves over sometimes. Just trying to get groceries. People are nervously avoiding her. Says "Hey, you" to some poor employee to ask where the milk and cigarettes are. Just grunts at everything else. When she's at the checkout, the guy there asks "Did you find everything you're looking for?", and she just says "No." and leaves

Chine comes out of the bathroom with a live rat in his hand. People scream. The manager finally comes up to him like "Sir, you can't have rats in here." They say "Oh, she's not mine. She was just having trouble opening the door." Gets a big meat on the bone at the deli and nothing else. When he asks how much it costs, they just say it's on the house and try to get him to leave as soon as possible. They go like "Oh, really? Are you sure? I have some money." and sound surprised but pleased, like they're being done a personal favor. The employees insist. He's like "Alright, thanks!" and then asks the rat if she wants anything

[m1ckeyb3rry]

sometimes someone will comment complaining about a certain aspect of one of my stories and i just want to tell them to write their own fic if they’re so bothered by my choices

[feline-evil]

Dick or no dick confirmation Pickles was always going to be trans to me anyways; if he's swingin' somethin that's phallo babes, if he's not then his t-dick fat. What's not to get.

Idk who needs to hear this but the food service worker probably does not find it as funny as you do

[hella1975]

who let my flatmate host a houseparty surely i would have vetoed that. walking into the carnage of my living room and letting out a delicate gasp

[navree]

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.

[fell-the-aristocracy]

there's gotta just be like. something in my fuckin dna. why am i always rendered Utterly Deranged by a supporting character?

in almost everything there's always a side character that just rips my heart out and carries it away. this is ridiculous. why am i on my knees screaming crying throwing up every time this damn boy shows up gfdhkj

[softenedsunbeams]

sometimes i just want to make everyone angry on purpose

[waterwindow]

You're getting old (positive) (affectionate)

Nice try. I mean if disliking stuff getting stolen, retooled and reposted out of context irreverently as an inferior version of itself makes me old then I'm embracing my new primordial status wholeheartedly.

Daniel’s little dancey-dance as he says "I am a member of S-G-1 ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ" gives me life and I had to share.

Some random RSV headcanon:

For some reason, Madame Maive's phrases about how the Farmer looks like a their Grandpa in habits, sticking their nose into other people's business everywhere and the desire to help everyone, aroused a sad thought in me. Especially when the dialogues about the similarities between the Farmer and Grandpa were full of annoyance at low friendship levels, but when the Farmer became friends enough with Madame, her phrases are now filled with... melancholy? Sadness?

I thought that in her youth, Madame Maive was in love with this ill-mannered, arrogant, kind, caring and handsome young man when he was a farmer. And he, perhaps, reciprocated her. But either because of her status and character, like her grandson Louie, she offended Grandpa in her youth, or she knew in advance that a marriage of convenience was needed for the good of the family, but still their romance did not last long.

Her life from the very beginning was filled with responsibility: the welfare of the family and status come first. And yet she catches herself sadly thinking about what would happen to her if she had the opportunity to choose a gentleman at the call of her heart, and not because of duty.

And the Farmer, always running around the Amethyne mansion, with a sincere desire to help and support, even one like Maive, is involuntarily forced to remember that beautiful young man who became a short but warm memory of the noble madam's youth.

(I didn't want to bring this discussion to tumblr but I must defend Jack Howl on the internet so bear with me)

Jack: *gets called stupid meathead, dumb jock (both by Azul) protein-addled muscle freak and is generally looked down/disrespected by other characters in some instances*

some of yall: I sleep 😴

Jack: *Makes a slightly insensitive backhanded comment but with no intention of being disrespectful*

some of yall: UNFORGIVABLVE 🤬🤬thats so mean !! foul!! hypocrite 💢💢🙄🙄

[meteorherd]

if i am being completely honest so many of yall are not helping fight against anti-intellectualism in the slightest while still supposedly claiming to do so, like....i figured it would be common sense that being condescending about how you're more cultured than those Other Terminally Online Idiots is not the best idea (bold choice of words too considering that you care enough to BE condescending on the internet in the first place, like at least acknowledge that we are all terminally online to some extent on here lol).

it's the same idea of how simply quoting some three-sentence social justice take you see online to someone irl isn't going to make them change their mind, and it's not always gonna be because they're just stubborn and you're inherently smarter. it's because you're being condescending without having anything substantial to back it up!!! common sense here, man!! the same idea of isolating your viewpoint of what True Intellectualism is isn't gonna do shit in the end.

i desperately wish more conversations around anti-intellectualism focused more on accessibility and didn't treat ableism solely as some strawman argument that the "cringe 30 year old fandom moms" use, because yes! there ARE gonna be people like that! and they are so, SO annoying! but for every person who is intentionally oblivious and stubborn like that, there ARE people who get alienated by the intellectualist rhetoric that's gotten magnified over the past few years because disabilities DO genuinely get in the way of learning. like, at the end of it all...just have a little compassion when it comes to the topic i guess.
