This is fun. I dress up as Harry Potter characters and put on stupid voices to make my mouth move right. I make the GIFs and laugh myself silly at how odd I look with overdrawn lips. I share them on this dumb website and y’all are forced to look at me having fun. Sometimes you reblog it, send asks or just, in general, join in on my dumb antics. Sometimes you don’t. I’m still having fun.
I get to be creative, I get to write and act. I get to play with my camera and fiddle with my lighting and I get to explore these characters that I absolutely adore. I get to headcanon and share my headcanons and even make headcanons with my friends.
I’m making friends in a community that (at least when I started) has so little hate and so much love. I get to see my friends get better at makeup, buy new wigs and best of all laugh. I get to lay on a google hangout and cry with laughter because someone messed up their eyebrows (okay it’s usually me).
The point is, I love it. If I didn’t, I would step back. I came online as Pansy and it was one of the funniest nights I’ve had in such a long time. I don’t care if I don’t look like your headcanon of Pansy. I don’t care if you think I’m ‘too ugly’ or ‘not sassy enough’. It was literally so much fun.
I don’t care if I bring the ‘quality’ of the community down, at least I’m not hating on anyone. I don’t care if I’m not creative enough for you, because I’m not hurting anyone by making dumb memes. I don’t care. We’re all just weirdos in our rooms with a webcam or a phone and we’re all just here to have fun.
If you are not having fun. Please, take a step back. For your own sanity as well as ours. This isn’t a career. I don’t have to ‘get better’ if I don’t want to. I can just make dumb GIFs and have fun with my friends... and so can you.
