Below you will find the ‘response’ from the admin at Gleerp-2021 about the post that I made about them, as well as my response. Their comments can be found in the replies to my pinned post at the top of my blog, so I figured going to effort of posting screenshots was unneeded as they’re not the easiest to read. 

gleerp-2021:

Excuse me, Naya’s father himself said it was totally fine to use naya as face claim. Cory’s mom said it was okay to use Cory as a face claim. And using Mark as a face claim does not mean we support what he did, but we do love the character. We can hate the actor for being a huge dick but we can also love his character. Character is one thing. Actor/actress is another. Please separate these two things.

Also, erasing sexuality? Come on, no one complained about changing straight characters sexuality and making them Pan, or bi, or gay. But people that aren’t even in the roleplay are complaining about changing a lesbian characters sexuality and making her BISEXUAL? This is hypocrisy

Also, even though you said you don’t mean to hate or whatever on the accounts tagged, I don’t really feel comfortable with this post, can you please at least remove my tag from there?

LOLOLOLOL PLEASE SHOW ME THE RECIPTS BECAUSE I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE! 

Using Mark as a faceclaim is DISGUSTING, period, full stop. There are a TON of alternate faceclaims that you could use if it’s truly the character that you love so much. Why do you have to use those faces? Why not do what other groups are doing and finding new faceclaims but keeping the characters you all love so much? 

No one complained? What about the anon I got that directed me toward your group? Sure sounded like they were disgusted by it. What’s the point of it? I personally am not for the changing of any character’s canon sexuality straight, or otherwise. Sexuality is not all of who we are, but it is a part of it, and changing that is changing a character that, as you stated, you loved so much as they were. Especially in a show like Glee that already had representation of minority groups. 

You know what, no, I will not. I’m not really comfortable with the faceclaims that you’re using for your group, so when you change those, I’ll take you off the list fair and square. It says right there in the disclaimer that groups will be removed from the list once they’ve changed or have removed the offensive material that had them put there.

miasswier’s ultimate glee ranking: no 12

12: Sadie Hawkins

Written by: Ross Maxwell Directed by: Bradley Buecker

Overall Thoughts: I fucking love this episode. It’s hilarious, and works incredibly to show off Glee’s ensemble nature. Kurt and Blaine both get big storylines, there’s all these random flashbacks, and just… I don’t even know. This is just straight up a fun episode, and I absolutely love it. 

What I Like:

This episode is so goddamn funny. I could quote about a thousand things, but my absolute favourites are:

“We’re like the Fuji’s, jumping from classroom to classroom.” “Wait. You mean like the refugees?”

“Ever since I dated Puckerman nobody will ask me to a dance.” “I think everyone just assumes you have herpes”

“Who do you think she’s asking?” “The only obvious choice in the room. The charming, debonair figure from her past. The forbidden love she let slip through her fingers.” “Unique? Really?”

“I know how to spell: leave my brother A-L-O-N”

“DID YOU NOT HEAR ME?! LET’S GO!”

“Have you ever heard of spell check?” “No.”

“I freaking hate Splenda! It tastes like pencils! WHY are you putting PENCILS IN MY LATTE?”

“WHAT you’re not talking about GAY BLAINE?”

Blaine having NO FUCKING CLUE that Tina was going to ask him even though she was being SO FUCKING OBVIOUS my son.

Joey Richter in the Adam’s Apples!!!!!

Adam being so enamoured with Kurt. The way he says “Your winter showcase performance was breathtaking” always blows me away. I always love it when they let Kurt be appreciated and loved, especially by boys (especially Blaine, but this is also good)

The fact that Adam basically auditions his showchoir for Kurt instead of asking Kurt to audition for his showchoir.

LAUREN ZIZES IS BACK. Getting rid of her was the worst mistake this show ever made I don’t know why they did that.

Honestly, I think they did a really good job presenting both Tina and Blaine’s crushes. They made them really sweet and moving, and just cute and super high school.

I’m with Blaine – I really do love Tina’s empowered attitude!

Rachel being so adorably supportive of Kurt and wanting him to get out there and date and be happy.

Kurt is such a little shit the way he pretends to tie his shoe until Adam notices him he’s so cute. Also, his adorable smile when Adam says yes to the date makes my life.

The way Marley screams, “JAKE” after “Tell Him”.

Speaking of Marley, this is one of the few (maybe even the only) episode of the season where she actually has like, agency in regards to who she’ll date. She makes a conscious choice to ask Jake to the dance, and then she admits that she’s aware that she’s naïve in liking him and puts all her cards on the table. I like it. It’s one of the only season four episodes in which I actually enjoy Marley’s storyline.

Blaine’s face when Sam starts going on about stars who have done steroids (all of which I’m pretty sure have never done steroids)

There’s something about the flow of this episode that is so enjoyable to me. Like, the way it has all the flashbacks and stuff. I don’t know. I just like the way it flows.

I just love the contrast at the end of Tina dancing with Blaine and being so happy, while Blaine stares longingly at Sam. It’s too much for me.

Kitty finally gets a scene where she is likeable! The scene with her and Puck at the dance is the first step in her redemption arc, and the first time you see her actually being nice. That being said…

What I Don’t Like:

That scene is riddled with antisemitism, and is creepy as fuck considering Kitty is a Sophomore and Puck is an adult. This entire storyline has always seemed creepy to me, but add what we now know about Mark Salling… Ugh. It makes me so fucking uncomfortable (and angry. Let’s not forget angry).

That Brody and Rachel scene at the end makes me roll my eyes so hard. It starts off so awesome, with Rachel actually standing up for herself and drawing attention to the fact that she literally will take anything she can get when it comes to romance, but then Brody says two semi-nice things and suddenly she’s over it and asking him to move in like WHAT. Rachel, you literally just did what you were complaining about always doing.

The fact that the only “empowering” thing they could come up with for the girls to do was ask guys to a dance like, come on.

I’ve always felt a little uncomfortable with the way that Blaine’s past traumatic experience at a Sadie Hawkins dance was totally sidestepped in favour of his crush on Sam. It could have been so interesting to delve into that, but nah.

Songs:

I Don’t Know How to Love Him: I like the intercut scenes of Blaine and Tina more than the actual song, which is too bad, because Tina so rarely gets solos.

Baby Got Back: I have to assume that all the people in this club are like, carpentry and stage combat or whatever majors, because I refuse to believe that any of them got into NYADA for musical theater while Jesse and Elliott didn’t. I refuse.

Tell Him: This song would be more interesting if it wasn’t just another choir room (class room?) performance.

No Scrubs: Probably the only song in this episode that I actively enjoy and go out of my way to listen to. Just fun and good.

Locked Out of Heaven: Marley and Unique obviously sound amazing, but it’s always felt like an odd choice to me to have Marley singing about how “your sex takes me to paradise” literally minutes after telling Jake she wants to take things slow. Also, I kind of wish this had been more of an actual group number instead of just a duet.

I Only Have Eyes for You: It’s not a bad song, and I like all the scenes intercut with it (except for Brochel), but it’s also kind of like, really, we’re shoving some Ryder angst in here at the end? We’d avoided it so nicely for the entire episode.

Final Thoughts: This is one of the episodes I’ve seen the most. We get Kurt and Blaine storylines, and a Tina storyline, and Marley gets some agency, and Kitty actually acts like a human teenager for once. It’s really too bad they shoved the Puck/Kitty stuff in here, because everything else that I don’t like is at least palatable. But that… ugh. It’s always brought the episode down for me, but now it’s just uber awful. Still, I can’t deny that this is one of my all-time favourite episodes of Glee. I’ve watched it a thousand times, and I’ll probably watch it a thousand times more.
