Felt the need to reblog this and say personally as a black Beetlejuice fan I do not care if they make Beej black or even a bipoc (i cannot speak for anyone else especially non black poc) nor do I think it inherently bad/racist obviously you need to be careful how you draw/betray him especially if you are white.
If you're making more than just Beej a poc in your art/betrayal and properly representing poc through them to I don't see it as an issue because you arent ONLY making the morally questionable antagonist anti hero/villain a bipoc. Im a black individual who likes the character and can relate to him and I personally portray him as black partially for that reason and I portray other characters like lydia, barbara, often chuck, and other as bipoc as well the same goes for other artists.
Again I cannot speak for you if you are a bipoc or other bipoc. On their feelings on this but I think there is more nuance toward the situation not to mention while it was morally reprehensible sor Beej to try and marry lydia many of us (not all) who have drawn black beetlejuice do not ship him with her and usually redeem him as more of a anti hero like the cartoon, and often do not think he has any romantic interest in lydia.
Obviously if any one who wants to portray any of the characters especially Beej because he does need extra care when it comes to representation talk to actual bipoc first, do research, look up resources, ect. And if you really aren't sure then just like leave bipoc to draw him that way I guess.
Yknow, its funny... (Just two cents about B*bes divorce related discourse below the read more)
If the babes are willing to chase off two of their most popular artists, arguably two of the most popular ones in the fandom, in people in some cases were their friends. Apparently send harassment,threats, insults to these people they seemingly liked before and after they left tumblr and explained why they were leaving, then pester these people to return then maaaayybbee the group that has claimed (babes)to be mostly accepting, kind, welcoming, friendly, ect. As opposed to "antis" throughout this discourse and in the fandom arent as great as they make themselves out to be especially when the source of a lot of the toxicity on their side is still supported by them and helped chase these people off by other members.
I mean I thought babes Didn't harass people, or send threats, I was under the impression y'all were so close and friendly what happened?
Oh wait I know the same thing I've predicted for months now that others can tell y'all I've been saying. You followed the worst people on your side without question or criticism and allowed them to control your group. Got on yall' s high horse because you thought only antis were bad, and they were the only ones who did or support this stuff, Almost completely ignoring the toxicity y'all held till it blew up in your face and destroyed a big part of your community.
It's also interesting to think hmm if they're willing to do that to their own then maybe babes are willing to to it to "anti's" and neutrals as well. People have already shown some babes have lied, gaslit, over exaggerated the truth (lying lite), and even have sent threats, and harassment. On occasion which they routinely deny. As a certain babe said, drawn your own conclusion.
I knew babes would eventually go after musicals babes, then neutrals because they arent support of enough of babes apparently, now babes who arent as edgy as they are, or agree with everything they say. Which is another thing they said was a problem with antis, they go after neutrals who aren't "anti" enough, and attack anyone who disagrees with them. But it seems like they're just projecting the toxicity in their community to the other side surprise surprise.
I think the pièce de résistance to this is the falling put started or finally blew up because apparently a certain babe said something racist or related to that and got mad when other babes including a babe of color opposed her , shocking!/s
So something I've been saying for a long ass time:
No group is perfect, bad and good exist on every side, no group in a monolith. You can be an anti, neutral, proship(babe) and not follow everything people on your side say. Being on either side doesn't automatically make you a bad person, don't believe everything people on your side say, be willing to listen to the other side
And honestly if you really cling to the narrative that all antis are bad abusers out to censor media and automatically attack people while babes are all friendly innocent kind people who accept all your ships and ideas or vice versa, as well as support people on your side who are obviously toxic, and listen to what they say about the other side without question that's pretty sad and pathetic.
Y'all listen to all these "former antis" well speaking as an actual former proshipper I didn't just leave the community because of the shipping specifically it was because if sh*t/people like this.
as some of you have maybe noticed i answered a lot of asks tonight and posted a very long essay from my drafts
i wanted to make sure everything was cleaned up and gone because i will be leaving this blog
im tired and do not wish to continue
i know i am leaving things in capable hands and i did have fun for awhile doing this but it became to much
i stopped drawing and i stopped caring about myself which is not great my health is not going to come second behind an anonymous troll blog
but i want to make it clear that im not leaving because of the beetlebabe shippers i am leaving because i am tired of trying to please everyone when its impossible to do so and i am leaving because i want to be myself again
honestly the babe shippers as stupid and awful and annoying as they were, were a cakewalk compared to some of the inhouse drama, and thats something the babes definitely have on us
theyre stupid but they are stupid together
i will miss the fun but i will not miss having to read raes shitty posts or nastis bad takes and i will happily never have to read about smol lydias therapist partner ever again thank god and hopefully ill never have to look at whatever suz is passing off as art any time soon
phew i have been wanting to do that for awhile jesus christ
anyway
dont blame yourselves any of you including the people i mentioned before you folks had nothing to do with my departure i am leaving as an act of self preservation
i honestly feel like a lot of you are better at staying in your lane than you used to be i still hate you of course but hey youve left me alone i can appreciate that
anyway
i just want to enjoy being alive again and pretending to be a 1034 year old dead man isnt really doing it for me right now
as you may know i do not have access to this blogs password so once i log out thats it i am out of here
so i will be logging out after i post this
thank you all for the journey and keep fighting the good fight
remember folks
pedophilia is wrong simulated cp is wrong using it to cope with trauma isnt a good way to cope with trauma trans people are allowed to love themsleves beetlejuice is a jewish coded character and making a poop joke isnt a death threat dont mess with orion listen to bipoc voices never resort to threats of violence dont fuck around with minors rae is an idiot and finally
beetlejuice loves you very much
Thank you all for the support and the laughs over the last few months. No, I will not be dropping any other socials or anything and I do not plan on making a super-secret-super-cool comeback. This is it. I’m going to move forward and I know I’m leaving things in good hands. But also if you ever think ‘wow this is really taking a toll on me’ then please, stop. It’s not worth it. You’re worth more than internet bullfuckery. Anyway. It’s going to be really hard getting back into using punctuation and capitalization, but i’ll get there. Love you guys.
When you let people attack me to defend you in chat, victim blamed me on your blog, used me to reblog my black lives matter post weks ago then blocked me, you only unblocked me when i said something about it on my blog and used being "undiagnosed,mentally ill, and reactionary" as an excuse to be an asshole but im mean and irrational when im in the same boat as you and i deserve to be dog piled by your friends/followers. Your blog did shit to actually help people and honestly you and a bunch of the other white idiots who kiss your ass when their heads so far up their need to check their microagressions and how you actually treat bipoc not when it gets you woke cookies go fuck yourself and your stupid blog good fucking riddance
Love when a white person threatens not to help people because they cant take criticism and then have people dog pile you in their defense when they didn't do anything to even help you in the first place.

Antwinekeyblade(an adult) prescribed medications to a minor in private DMs, forced them to rewrite their work for their liking, manipulated them into voice chats, made a list of special rules to police the specific minor for their own gratification, gaslit the minor, told them to "get on __ antidepressants" And talked about penis size and beastiality in private with a minor. You want screenshots? Ask and I'll hand them over. Or don't you want to expose a real pred in the beetlejuice fandom?
send the screenshots! please! you can message me at @ewwbabes if you’d like :)
Hi there, I’ve seen the supposed screenshots, in fact, all of the screenshots of the complete DM’s between her and the minor, and all of this is presented in an EXTREMELY BIASED, UNTRUE MANNER. Also, nice going misgendering a trans woman, dude.
1. She never prescribed meds to this minor. The minor, who I will be referring to as A, had repeatedly vented in the server she was moderating, expressing depressive, suicidal, and self harm thoughts. She checked in on him because, y’know, why wouldn’t you? They had a discussion about medication once, she said what meds she was on and recommended he talk to his psychiatrist about his medication. If this is predatory behavior, Babes are equally guilty of it as they have repeatedly been extremely ableist and invasive about my mental health, as well as the mental health as other minors.
You keep getting these asks but any Lydia headcanons to spare?
She absolutely is a lesbian I know this. Misa Death Note, Wednesday Addams, please text her.
She’s afrolatina, her mom is from Cuba!
She actually likes scary films but only to laugh at them, Psychological things are more her style. It’s not the gore but the dialogue that gets her laughing. Absolutely can recite the first saw film. (Don’t tell her dad she watches them)
She enjoys photography and she likes shooting objects or places. Taking pictures of people feels awkward. She’s got a lot of pictures of her mom’s costumes and jewelry
She stomp walks, no reason she just can’t control that power
I think she cuts her own hair after her mom died bc she used to do it for her and refuses to let anyone else mess with it. It used to come out choppy but she’s really improving
