You all may remember @AdamKreutinger as the maker of our incredible Sanders Sides puppets. He’s been diagnosed with Stage 3 brain cancer and I’m gonna share this link in case you’d like to join me in helping him and his family navigate this. ❤️🙏

Sometimes I remember that Supernatural writers are so bad at their jobs that they accidentally made it canonically impossible for Dean to be John’s son

I'll have y'all know that my favorite figure skater's parents told her that to get a dog she'd have to do well at the Olympics and she went and won the frickin Olympics when she was 15💀

Her: I want a dog

Her mom and dad: Yeah sweetie, do well at the Olympics and we'll see

Alina Zagitova: Ok

Part 1 of the Little Nightmares Sanders Sides AU featuring The Actor on his stage. At first you can’t tell he’s facing you because of the position of his legs and then he attacks you if you make a noise that will “interrupt” his “performance” of janky terrible music and jerky motions.

The goal is to get up high above him on the Stage while avoiding making as much sound as possible and flicking a bunch of switches without being grabbed so the bright spotlights all shine down on him at once and he takes a bow. This lets Thomas, the protagonist kid, grab hold of the larger glass pieces in his head and tear them off.

It takes three literal stages to do this as he swoops out to catch you each time you pull one out and heads into another “room” of the stage. (stage 1 is the one in the third picture, stage 2 is a row of seats and stage 3 is a balcony) If he hears you he lets out a furious screech and reaches arms out to get you as more terrible janky music plays.

When the last of the glass falls out, the mask shatters and he shifts back into a child with a red coat affectionately dubbed Red:

Red has the ability of distraction when played in tandem with Thomas. He is able to cause distractions independently by making singing in different areas to call other monsters away from switches or levers.

system terminology & the tss fandom

okay the way i titled this makes it sound far more intimidating than it actually is. this is p much a post on things to avoid while depicting the sides in fanfic / fanart, so that u don’t accidentally equate having sides with having did / osdd !

what happened with the madlibs artists? I saw it in a post you reblogged and don't know the situation.

ok so back in december, the madlibs storytime video got released. thomas and co had asked fans to do the art for the stories, like in the fwsa video. unlike the fwsa video, this video had far more artists and far less time for them to do their shit, which is probably why this whole thing happened.

flash-forward a few weeks, and this video by prince alex got released. he’s a big tss fan and a really cool creator, i rly recommend checking him out. alex was one of the animators on the madlibs and had a really shitty experience, and the moment the info started spreading, the rest of the animators backed him up.

in summary: thomas and co asked for fan animators, but paid them all ridiculously small fees. like, a dollar per second kind of small. this post breaks down how far that is from industry standard, as well as other info. the animators were given barely any time to finish the animations, and Thomas and co barely communicated with them, to the point that they didn't even know when the video was released.

and they couldn't talk about it. their contracts prevented them from speaking abt the project. i’m not fucking kidding. these animators were underpaid, overworked, and generally shat on, and they couldn’t even complain. emails were sent to the crew during the project, and most of them were brushed aside with a politely-worded fuck off.

eventually, thanks to the video and other animators coming forward, the cat got out of the bag. a few days of December were filled with ppl coming to terms with it, ‘cause even tho thomas wasn’t behind the pay itself, he was fully aware of the whole thing. and it sucked. hard.

the animators didn't want compensation (altho ppl encouraged them to donate to their kofi links.) they just wanted an apology and for thomas and co to learn from what happened. this was a shitty situation that clearly happened bc they didn't know how to handle this many animators on a project. and we all wanted an apology.

and now we’re here.

and i get it, ok? it can be easy to forget this stuff. u want to forget this stuff. u want to think just bc nobody’s talking abt it, u can move on. it can seem painful to keep dwelling on the bad spots.

but there’s been no apology. no compensation. no public acknowledgment. there has been nothing to make up for the animator abuse that occurred. thomas and co are doing the same fucking thing as some of yall are subconsciously doing--trying to forget abt it.

that’s not how u hold ppl accountable. mistakes can be forgiven, ‘cause fuckups happen, and u can never expect a celebrity to be perfect. but. people were hurt. there’s been no apology. if we forgive and forget, we stop asking for change. and this could happen again.

i’m not asking for thomas to get cancelled or whatever. i’m just saying this isn’t over. don’t let it be over. if u don't know abt this, educate urself (I'm gonna link some stuff below.) if u do, keep spreading the info. keep this in the public eye. keep this fandom buzzing. we’re not gonna forget, and we’re not gonna be silenced.

and if it makes u bummed to dwell on the bad stuff? i've said it before and ill say it again. this is not about u. it is about the people who were hurt. and thomas is not ur friend, and ur not doing the nice thing by forgiving him--ur doing the doormat thing. u can like thomas’ content and still hold him accountable. u can love sanders sides and still criticize the crew. u can say ‘i don’t hate thomas for this’ and still say ‘but i hate what happened.’

we should hate what happened. we should keep talking. we should wait for an apology, because we are under no contract to keep quiet. we never will be.

here are some links abt the situation with further details:
