The Pinned Post

This is my side blog for discourse, negatively geared discussion and pettiness. If you're here you should follow my main for based meta posts @call-me-apple

I mainly talk about c!Technoblade, c!Philza, c!Dream and the Syndicate as a whole. Also, I don't like c!Tommy but you can avoid my frustrated posts about him by filtering out "c!tommy negative".

Asks policy

- ask whatever, but only Dream SMP related. Critical asks are allowed, encouraged even, so long as they're respectful!

- not every ask will be answered and some can take a while for me to get to.

- negative asks about specific blogs will go ignored.

c!dream apologists scare me

Boo

Ppl claiming Dream and his friends mocked Quackity's project like the SMP tweets weren't just taking the piss out of two first ever multilingual servers being announced on the same day come the fuck on

[judgehangman]

y’all can tag discussing literal canon as “c!wilbur crit” as many times as you want but like it’s literally just the canon bro mfs will write wildly ooc tadca c!dream and maintag it with zero warnings i think wilburians can handle looking at Literal Canon if they didn’t want people to call him a villain they shouldn’t have stanned a character who’s literally a villain

Man, you ever look back at takes past and marvel that people made them and you had to scroll past them like they were normal and reasonable?

This is about the person who argued that Phil's dirt-floor training room was so ostentatiously wealthy as a setting that when phil was talking to tommy about attachments there it made them physically ill.

fawk they get us so well 😭😭

I cany breathe who is this

[apple-but-sour]

No fr though. It’s absolutely baffling how deep those brain worms go. Like people acting like he needs to be the center of attention when he’s just doing his thing? Like sorry the world is isn’t gonna stop just for Quackity’s SMP.

(No hate to Q btw I’m excited I just need these people to realize that there are things that happen around the same time and the world does not revolve around whatever your CC is doing)

Literally bro like do ppl realize people can work on the same things at the same time and them talking about it isn't some kinda arrogant brag over everyone else in the sphere why do dranti brains function like this

I'm excited for QSMP!! I'm also excited for what Dream is working on!! A fucking impossible scenario apparently can only have it one way!!!

[apple-but-sour]

This fucking fandom is going to make me a goddamn drolo at this rate bro

[apple-but-sour]

The ppl complaining about Dream literally just talking about his projects piss me off so bad "wua wua he is overshadowing Quackity who works so hard why is he trying to make this about himself" motherfucker the only reason he tweeted about already working on smth similar to QSMP is so fucks like you wouldn't later accuse him of stealing Quackity's ideas and you managed to do it anyway!!!!! can't have shit on twitter dot com!!!

pretty sure the reason why people are so quiet about shipping dnb is because they get fooled with hate and harassment, but sure

I mean I know that's why it's such a quiet ship. I'm just baffled that in this fandom atp c!dnb seems to get ppl more shit than c!awesamdream. Imagine what life could be if we had an equivalent of whatever happened in the hermits fandom where ppl just decided to mind their own damn business and trust the ccs to curate what they're seeing

[apple-but-sour]

But Quackbur has a cc! push in Big Q

c!Quackbur were hella gay and popular as a ship way before we got any CC comments on it tho

[apple-but-sour]

I'd say it's the most popular without cc influence. Like C!dnf being popular is definitely influenced by it involving dnf. I think from a purely character perspective it's the most popular

what about c!quackbur aren't they like THEEEE ship in terms of what's not strictly already canon

[apple-but-sour]

i don't think i've ever been in a fandom where the most popular ship is one nobody would openly admit to shipping before... unique...

It's the inherent mild weirdness of shipping characters who share the names of the guys who play them. I dunno if the character shipping scene is so damn complicated anywhere else

Also I don't think c!dnb is THEEEEE ship but it's surprisingly up there for a ship you rarely see ppl talk about lol

[apple-but-sour]

Please help your brethren in the fight were begging for assistance- we can't keep up with the voter fraud

C!DREAMBUR SWEEP!!!! We cannot let the ghostly c!dreamnobladers no one has fucking seen that yet somehow make one of the more popular ships in the fandom win!!!

Also I know this poll is like Problematique but idc idc it's a meaningless fucking poll my brothers in craft just don't look at the nominations for ur own sanity

[apple-but-sour]

lost was saying how you accidentally became a cdream apologist? 😭 what happened /gen

I dunno if I'd say it happened "accidentally". It's just that when I started gaining an interest in c!Dream, I gravitated towards c!Dream apologists rather than the other side of the interpretation spectrum, and by the time I joined Tumblr I had enough of a positive rep in c!Dream apologist circles that they just kinda adopted me lmao. And eventually he became my main guy.

I never really identified as a c!Dream apologist tho. Primarily because for a long time I disagreed a lot with the mainstream c!Dream apologist interpretations, even though I sure enjoyed them more than the other interpretations 😭. But the label is kinda meaningless and broad anyway. And it's not like you have to call yourself a c!Dream apologist to be perceived as one lol, my fandom circles and the general vibe of my takes made me a c!Dream apologist in all but name.

[apple-but-sour]

fun fact: after writing my first fanfiction in this fandom and thinking i didn't get c!dream's characterisation quite right (specifically, thinking I woobied him too much, which i probably did), i made a word document from one of your twt threads where you listed different integral parts of c!dream and used it to try to get as accurate as possible in writing him (with changes if the au demanded it)

Aw that's nice to hear 🥺 Terrified to look at that thread now though, realistically I know that if we're thinking of the same thread my interpretation hasn't changed that much since but What If. What If I passed cringe onto you

[gets a tumblr ask and reads it] wow! i should respond to that!! first i have to do something though [walks into the ocean never to be seen again]
