i don’t know which makeup newbie needs to hear this right now but i’m gunna hold your hand real quick

listen to me, your skin has texture. the makeup cannot erase that texture. when you wear makeup, if you look closely at your skin in the mirror you’re going to very obviously look like you’re wearing makeup. this is normal and ok and something we all must accept.

take a breath in, take two steps back from the mirror and you’ll see it no longer looks cakey or weird or whatever else is plaguing you about your makeup today. and then breathe out and remember that that’s as close as any stranger, coworker or judgy old lady will be getting to you. none of them are going to be centimetres from your face and picking apart the texture of your skin. and if they are that close then you’re about to have a makeout sesh so you have other things to worry about.

now go out into the world and rock your makeup.

hot take: you don’t have to completely distance yourself from the harry potter franchise just because jk rowling turned out to be an asshole terf. harry potter is fun and i think if we let her ruin our fun we’re only letting her win.

the whole point of boycotting her stuff was to make sure she sees no profit from it right? but you can do that without completely giving up on something that brings you joy.

wanna watch the movies? pirate them, buy copies second-hand or borrow dvds from ur local library.

wanna read the books? buy the series second-hand, borrow from the local library or a friend, pirate pdf files of the books. if you wanna be extra fancy you can print out your pirated files and bind them into books yourself!

want harry potter merch? there’s a heap of independent artists online who sell harry potter related items as well as a bunch who don’t that would happily accept commissions for custom pieces! additionally you could get crafty and make things yourself!

there’s also a wealth of free fan-made content online that has no affiliation with rowling!

and above all else, let’s continue disconnecting jkr from harry potter like many fans have already been doing. because we don’t know who jkr is and harry potter was obviously written by daniel radcliffe. 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

remember folks! if you let the terfs spoil your fun you’re letting them win!! you can enjoy harry potter and still make sure rowling won’t see a penny from you!

been hearing a lot of ppl complaining about fandom spaces not being fun anymore or being ruined because of assholes, doxxing, art theft, micro trends, ai, etc.

AND I CANNOT RELATE TO THIS SENTIMENT.

i’ve experienced no such thing, having the time of my life out here meeting nice and fun people, looking at awesome (human made) art, engaging with fic writers and comic makers, yapping about headcanons and AUs with people, exchanging tips and strategies for games i like and generally having the time of my life.

that said, here are my tips on how to get the most out of fandoms:

1. DON’T FEED THE TROLLS!! when you see discourse or rude garbage hot takes, do not engage. if you engage with assholes you’ll only encourage them to come after you and you’ll spoil your own fun.

2. only report people if it’s genuinely hurting someone (ie. doxxing, harassment, art theft, etc). if it’s just a ship you don’t like that there’s technically nothing wrong with, or they have headcanons you don’t agree with, leave them alone.

3. BLOCK WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE ^w^ post a lot about a ship you don’t like? blocked. participate in discourse on the regular or try to start discourse with you? blocked. they called you cringe or were generally negative towards you on your own blog? blocked. just don’t enjoy their content and wish it would stop showing up on your dash? blocked. they post ai generated content? blocked. you do not need to justify blocking someone and they don’t need to personally wrong you for you to be allowed to do it. blocking people is all about who you don’t want to engage with and that’s ok.
