anyways in light of unspecified recent events which i will not name i cannot wait new york times until the next time new york times someone tries to say new york times that supercorp is irrelevant new york times because it’s n e w y o r k t i m e s not canon
Things I hope are gained from The NY Times article
Shipping is a healthy social behavior. It’s not creepy or a demonically homo erotic behavior. It’s something fans of shows, movies, music, etc. can use to express themselves.
Queer representation will maybe become more of a thing. The article stated how shippers of Wayhaught helped steer some of the creative decisions of the show. That is HUGE and hopefully other writers and producers take note *cough cough* CW *cough cough*
Fans are valid and valued. Let’s remember that while the shows are made just for entertainment and the actors and actresses have almost no control of content, the opinions of their fanbase is important.
And finally, as if you already didn’t know, Katie McGrath is queen and I would do anything for her and the fact that she was published in such a reputable media outlet with a quote stating that it’s ok that fans take what they want from the show is amazing.
