Intro Post

Hello there! I’m Kdot or sometimes just K. I decided why not finally make an intro post since i’ve been here for 5+ hell years.

I post a lot about magical girls! and shitposts but mainly magical girls. Any series but I’m a big fan of Precure, Cardcaptor Sakura, and Lolirock.

Other fandoms include: Adventures in Aria, TAMB, Hollow Knight+Silksong, Zelda, the occasional mcyt.

I’m also a big fan of body horror themes and psychological character exploration! :D

My art tag is #kdot’s art corner (I use procreate on Iphone)

Rambles + my own writings can be found at #shut up kdot

can i fucking help you?

[boitterfly]

it’s so special to me that so much of fan culture is textual analysis for the love of the game. like thank god there are people in my phone who are also thinking about this thing i love so much that they are writing transformative fiction as character studies and setting clips of the show to music with theme-relevant lyrics and writing long text posts analyzing every line of dialogue like!! yay!!!

[nifrequerne]

I often wonder what happened to authors of unfinished fanfictions.

[everyoneinspaceisgay]

I hope they’re having a nice life

[ts-virgil-angst]

we absolutely are not and that unfinished fic haunts us to this day

[sensiblereblogifposts]

Reblog if that unfinished fic haunts you to this day

For the ask game:1,17,20

this’ll mostly be zelda i think b/c current hyperfixation, but i’ll dive a little into others too.

1. Character who everyone gets wrong.

DING DING DING YOULL NEVER GUESS ITS HW ZELDA!!

I’ve also rarely seen a depiction of botw link/zelda that I’ve liked. A few are Bonus Link’s Slate has an unsettling vibe I like, and socksock’s longfic Displaced does scientist!Zelda well.

17. There should be more of this fic/art.

I really adore fics that explore Hornet’s relationship with the White Lady. She’s almost like a mother figure to Hornet, but Hornet finds her actions that much unhonorable that it really can’t be.

I’m making a formal request to see Hornet in her white palace outfit again.

20. What canon do you think is boring/tedious?

Botw weapon mechanics. Not a necessarily controversial opinion. I also find exploring via horse-riding unnecessary if I’m just going to get off the horse five seconds later.

Shout out to trans women who aren’t computer scientists or musicians or avant-garde artists or whatever.

Shout-out to tgirls who work at Taco Bell. Thank u queen, society would collapse without you

[snkrfnd]

Over twenty years ago my big brother got me a job at a Taco Bell in the St. Louis suburbs-West County. He warned me that it was the “gay Taco Bell”, but since I was coming from the “gay Howard Johnson’s” I wasn’t shocked. It turns out it was the black trans women Taco Bell complete with black trans women in management. And they’d worked out an arrangement with the local teen Narcotics Anonymous group so that twice a week we would shut down the drive thru and the dining room and exclusively serve 60+ teens in various stages of recovery. And many of the women I worked with were in various stages of being out or transitioning and they were from all generations from teens to over 50. One woman I worked with had a regular corporate job presenting as a man 9-5 Mon-Fri and then came to Taco Bell and worked 6pm -2am Friday and Saturday night so she could be herself surrounded by other black transwomen in those stolen weekends. And we had customers come from all over the metro area because they knew they could be themselves in the dining room. I only worked there from 1999-2001 but for young me, this was a vital, formative experience. Some of the girls came from north city all the way out to the “gay Taco Bell” on Manchester in west county because they heard it was safe to work there. Like- I know times have changed but they haven’t changed much in 20 years. I’m still convinced that for lgbt youth, finding a job at your city’s version of the “gay Taco Bell” is key to survival.

🔥 choose violence ask game 🔥

the character everyone gets wrong

a compelling argument for why your fave would never top or bottom

screenshot or description of the worst take you've seen on tumblr

what was the last straw that made you finally block that annoying person?

worst discord server and why

which ship fans are the most annoying?

what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?

common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about

worst part of canon

worst part of fanon

number of fandom-related words you've filtered

the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them

worst blorboficiation

that one thing you see in fics all the time

that one thing you see in fanart all the time

you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

there should be more of this type of fic/art

it's absolutely criminal that the fandom has been sleeping on...

you're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like...

part of canon you found tedious or boring

part of canon you think is overhyped

your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores

ship you've unwillingly come around to

topic that brings up the most rancid discourse

[apatheticfluorescence]

some hyper famous artists like Van Gogh transcend overratedness and become underrated because they're so normalized. Like I'll look at a van Gogh and I'm like wait this really is amazing you guys don't get it

[headspace-hotel]

Shakespeare is like this

[insufferablepirate]

Every time I see a Van Gogh that’s not one of his better known pieces it absolutely blows me away

Have you seen this shit my liege? smh unreal
