The title says everything you need to know.
I block strangers on a whim. You annoy me, you get the boot.
Obsessed with two particular kinds of characters:
Gets dehumanized and sealed away to contain The Horrors (or they themselves are The Horror)
Evil women who could kill me
The more nuanced the character, the better.
Villain is a compliment.
Problematic characters and complex political dramas my beloved.
Anti-censorship. Period.
I think I might be about to send a deranged email
Couldn't find an email address so it was instead a deranged form submission
HUGE NEWS

dont forget that YOU š«µ are the backbone of this fandom. oh but im not a- DONT CARE. write a bad fic, draw that silly art, make that tumblr post with your headcannon. oh but i have nothing to share- DONT CARE. kudos that fic, write a nice comment, gush in the tags of a reblog.
YOU š«µ ARE CREATING A FANDOM SPACE BY EXISTING AROUND AND ENCOURAGING CONTENT CREATION
what YOU š«µ say has impact. make it a good one.

š«© no i don't think those characters are siblings i think they're friends. I don't think that's their mom I actually think she's their friend. I don't think they're related actually I think they're friends with each other.
I'm starting to think some of you guys were too easily scared as children cause what do you mean you still as an adult find Dark Crystal nightmarishly scary? Skill issue tbh. The Skeksis might give you nightmares, I just think they're delightfully unpleasant.
'why did they show us films as kids that had DEATH and GRIEF in them???' idk man because children are morbid little creatures that are just discovering these ideas and need a safe way to practise those huge emotions? sorry you couldn't cope with cartoon animals dying but like. these are in fact appropriate things for children to know about and learn how to handle.
It is objectively Good for children to have the chance to practise grief, fear, loss and sadness in safe, low-stakes environments where they don't actually lose anything and aren't in any danger
because otherwise the first time they learn to process those feelings will be when it IS real and it DOES matter.
some good books to start em young are things like Goodbye Mog or The Sad Book or children's horror stories like Goosebumps. and yeah like. Watership Down, Black Beauty, Animals of Farthing Wood, Bambi - stuff that deals with grief and loss in a vivid but age-appropriate way.
as for scary things. this one is weird because quite frankly small children have wild imaginations and will develop fears of some very random things whether or not they're exposed to scary media. like I was scared by watching Jurassic Park as a kid. reasonable. normal. how did this fear manifest? I got scared of the showerhead because it reminded me of the spitting dinosaur. Make that make sense. If you only ever show kids like, Care Bears, they will protect almost as intense a fear onto that as they would onto Dark Crystal or the Black Cauldron - the story is just a cipher for them to process their bigger feelings.
also, and on the other hand. if you're 30+ years old and still scared of Muppets and animated animals you may have an actual problem. I'm not saying that in a perjorative sense but like. are you good?
I recently saw a pretty serious reviewer arguing that books like Old Yeller, The Yearling, The Bridge to Terabithia, and Where the Red Ferns Grow are problematic because they're manipulating children into feeling sad and/or disturbed (iirc, it was specifically along the lines of "they (the books) are teaching children to accept whatever bad things happen to them". )
Yes, these books are sad. That's the whole point! Sometimes terrible things will happen to you, sometimes you'll have to do something that absolutely breaks your heart, sometimes you'll lose people or animals that you loved dearly and you'll just have to learn how to carry on., because that's how life works!
Introducing these ideas at a young age is a good thing. Kids cannot live sheltered from these feelings- they'll come, regardless of how protective you are as a parent

legalize copyright infringement
to be clear this is a fully sincere political belief that I have. I am pro copyright infringement and in fact anti "asking for permission to make derivative art"
Why is queer manga, especially BL, judged against the hard bigotry of high expectations?
If itās not 100% āpureā or āwholesomeā itās then castigated as irredeemable garbage beyond hope.
Fucking sick of this man
write that self indulgent fic, you would be insanely surprised how many people are waiting for THAT Ficā¢
the Internet Archive put the slogan "universal access to all knowledge" on a T-shirt and now I think about it every day. possibly the first principle I've encountered that I believe in strongly enough I'd get a tattoo of it.
