@cornbreadcreations
ugh i like ur art so much but begging u to not draw the clownships (diamondmirror esp) begggingggg so i can stay if not imma have to block šāļø
Oh buddy, block me immediately. I'm drawing it out of spite now.
Also, either:
1) You think weird ultimatums control what I draw.
Or
2) Your frontal lobe is not fully developed because only a child would think to send something like this.
Guys
Animation soon..... Pierrot and MC
18+
I opened my computers trash and he was the only thing in there
i love this scene alot i always think about it and the rest of the scene of them at the henchmen support group, like how 24 seemed pretty upset but as soon as he heard 21s voice he immediately recognized it and perked up. And afterwards when he walks up to 21 and 21 recognizes his voice and immediately goes to hug him,and 24 who dosent like touching still goes in for the hug anyways because he missed and loves his friend, and then they both lovingly roast each others looks lmao i love them so bad
cat boy pete white,,, like if you want to spare him reblog if you want him to go into the meat grinder and comment if you want more art
i wanna see him in the meat grinder, for no other reason than just. to see him in the meat grinder. :3
Reblog if you are a human rights extremist who believes that all humans are equal and has no sense of loyalty to nation states.
I donāt mean to be rude; but I donāt think Iāve ever seen this, does anyone have any examples?
Supernatural
Doctor Who (Steven Moffat specifically)
Sherlock (Steven Moffat specifically)
Actually Steven Moffat is basically just this sentiment given human form.
A version of this happened with The Magicians, tbh. Though instead of expectation: men, reality: women it was expectation: smug nihilists, reality: mentally ill queer folks.
Arguably Game of Thrones.
If we broaden it outside of televisionā¦I think Star Wars falls into this, at least the sequel trilogy. Maybe the MCU as well. And I canāt help but think of every band thatās ever complained that their fanbase is mostly women. 5 Seconds of Summer comes immediately to mind.
In general, most white male creators seem to have this massively entitled mindset where they wantāand think they deserveāthe time, attention, and enthusiasm that creative fandom (i.e. the side of fandom more dominated by women) is known for.
They want our eyes for ratings, our word-of-mouth for free publicity, our metas for social media buzz, and our spending power for merch and cons. But they donāt want us. And they donāt really want the responsibility of telling a story to a thoughtful, engaged audience, regardless of that audienceās demographic makeup. They just want to be praised for whatever schlock they cough up.
And like any other spoiled brat, they will break their toys before they share them.
It goes all the way to the top for kids shows. Toy sales will crash a show. Makes sense, but if those toys are gendered for boys instead of the female viewers, they wonāt usually switch up the marketing and move them to the girl aisle. They cancel the show outright.
Mind you it is perfectly possible to make the switch in marketing, but execs would rather throw it all out than have something that doesnāt perform well with male viewers. For example the Rey merch was not expected to be popular, for some reason, there had to be public outcry to get merch of one of the main 3 protagonists. A PROTAGONIST. The fact that she wasnāt a huge part of the 1st launch says a lot already.
And what happened when female fans got too invested in the Sequel Trilogy? The entire writers room didnāt necessarily lash out, but they sure forgot how to behave.
Young Justice
Paul Dini: Superhero cartoon execs donāt want largely female audiences
#WhereIsRey (initial)
#WhereIsRey (ongoing)
The older, male generation of 'Star Wars' fans may be losing interest in the franchise, but female fans are stepping up.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker was designed to be the opposite of The Last Jedi
Youāre all sitting on the hot take of the decade tbh
And yet when they fond out that boys were watching MLP:FIM in droves, they had NO PROBLEM with it.
#SONS OF ANARCHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!#LITERALLY SONS OF ANARCHY IS THE BIGGEST EXAMPLE OF THIS LIKE EVER#kurt sutter wrote that show for MEN and ended up with an overwhelmingly female audience#because heās actually a good writer and knows how to develop characters well and wrote excellent female characters#but once he realized that his audience was almost entirely women he literally took it out on tara and gemma in the show#but like tara specifically#he resented her character for being a huge draw for female viewers so he tore her development to shreds and killed her#in the most brutal gut wrenching way possible#kurt sutter you will pay for your crimes#i actually wrote a manifesto about this on one of my old blogs i should try to find it sldkjsldfjsdljf#long post (via@m-oonknight)
OMG YES. I LOVED Sons of Anarchy, especially the women and then I got to season 6 and it was like - everything was just tossed in the trash? And like, why did Sutter hate that Tara drew tons of attention? That should have been a good thing! He should have been like āHey folks, this girlās getting us more viewers, letās put her in more scenes!ā It just doesnāt make sense to me. MEN donāt make sense to me.
The 100 too. Iāll never forget how Jason Rothenberg would attacked female fans on Twitter and mock them in interviews, and then post links to male fan discussions on Reddit to praise and thank them. In his goodbye letter to the show he SPECIFICALLY thanked Reddit and it was so disgusting.
Star Trek from TNG on was also a boyās club, even though the TOS fans were mostly women. Women, in fact, who literally created modern fandom with their zines. But after TNG it was all, āWomen donāt understand Star Trek, only smart men hur dur.ā
I think it would be harder for us to find examples of when this DIDNT happen than when it did. It happens all the time.
Doesnāt stop it from boggling the mind
(though it could probably start to make some sense if you follow the money past audience bases to maybe a couple of investors or like a rich patron ⦠š¤)
Stooooop I just wrote a masters thesis on this shit. Media creation and distribution is a means by which dominant power structures consolidate their hegemony. Dominantly situated creators get upset when the audience they attract isnāt the audience they wanted, because they view the whole creation and sharing of the fiction as an exercise to sustain kyriarchal conditions that benefit themselves. When the audience is Other, they see it as a failure of those efforts and lash out.
Simply, theyāre trying to assert a particular worldview via fiction, and upon getting confronted with something else, begin foot stamping. Itās not just men wanting male attention and gatekeeping. Itās that the fiction in the first place was an attempt to curate dominance and whoopsie! they miscalculated.
(anyway if anyone wants to read 35k words of philosophy about this, hmu)
I think a lot about an interview I heard with Bo Burnham a few years ago, where he talks about this phenomenon with his own work. He gained a large audience of teenage girls, and people in comedy spaces would look down on him for that or say what a shame it was, but he responded differently:
āThe real truth is, I would perform my show and I would meet kids after and young girls would come up to me and they understood what I was expressing in that bit onstage way more than guys my own age. Way more. So if there was a bridge between us that I had to cross to write the movie [Eighth Grade], it was built to me by them. I felt understood by them before I presumed to understand them.ā
Instead of trying to change his comedy, he decided to lean into and celebrate the audience that he actually had by making a movie specifically about the experiences of a teenage girl. Itās fascinating to hear him talk about how he got there, but also to acknowledge how rare that reaction is.
op disabled reblogs but I think the point still stands
reminder that the books themselves also suck ass actually. there's an entire plotline endorsing slavery. the one character who advocates to end slavery is bullied and made fun of. the one slave who doesnt like being enslaved is bullied and treated as an outcast. the bankers are the picture of racist stereotypes of jewish people. the one asian character is named fckn Cho Chang. the worldbuilding SUCKS. fuck harry potter and fuck rowling. stop giving her your money.
It's so funny cause i've been going down such a rabbit hole into disturbing fictional media (Such as Tender is the Flesh, Dogtooth, Taxidermia, and now In the Miso Soup) and understanding that these books and movies are made with the intention of picking apart the seedier/ugly parts of the world in a raw stomach churning way (which it succeeds I turn green very quickly reading/watching some of these) but the first thing I think is "Man. Maybe I'm not writing fucked up enough"
this is literally my reaction to raw horror being a clever commentary on some realities of the world EVERYTIME.
reblog to throw a brick at Jonas Venture Sr
Repost, now do your honors.
Trans people just existing is no more sexual than when cis people just exist.
the situation with harry potter is kind of unprecedented in some ways imo because it is maybe the largest media franchise in history to be created & owned by a single person who still has direct creative control over it. who is also a billionaire with significant cultural/political influence. like the usual "no ethical consumption under capitalism" type excuses shatter on impact when the bigoted author in question is logging onto twitter every day saying explicitly that when you buy the tim hortons ravenclaw donut she is using your donut money to fund the genocide of trans people. like with big franchises usually there's at least a little more diffusion of responsibility than this
Hereās a monster OC of mine that I canāt stop thinking about. His name is Dr. Chiron, but you can just call him Doc! As long as youāre not a subject of course~ ^-^
