Can we please stop sharing content where some twat has added their own lame comments to it?

It's so easy to remove these unwanted comments when you reblog original content.

No one wants their content shared with unwanted texts left by TumblrDomBigDick69🙄 so cmon people let's remove the added texts before we reblog something.

Not a huge fan of the way every time a Jew with intersecting marginalized identities talks about the need for support from both sides, it’s practically guaranteed someone from one side or the other is going to make a stink about it.

And it always comes down to this childish “but they started it” “but they’re worse” or some excuse for why the other group’s behavior means they don’t owe us empathy.

sarah’s interview on alex’s ‘Call her Daddy Podcast’, books aside for a second, was gut-wrenching to listen after she shared her experience when going through the birth of her child. not only was her body violated and mishandled in such a horrible way, but she was dismissed from having her husband near her (hearing how she called for josh absolutely shattered me), and was in constant panic being alone and not understanding what was happening to her. my heart hurts for her and i appreciate the strength she had for being vulnerable enough to speak on it. and a lot of respect to alex who allowed a safe space to do so..

motherhood is something i can’t personally understand as i haven’t been through it myself, but i do have a lot of empathy and my heart and love goes out to the people in this world who have been thorough matters like this one. no matter the experience and what it entailed ♡

i needed to make this first part mainly focused on what sarah shared to us, so i have split this post to give people the choice to read ahead as i will now be jumping back to the topic of acotar and a ⚠️triggering topic: infertility⚠️ ♡

this will most likely be the last time i talk about this topic in regards to acotar. if people want to keep refusing to listen, that’s on them and i can’t do anything about it and i refuse to waste more energy on people who can’t see the harm they cause ♡

it’s horrible seeing people having opinions in regards to a woman and her worth as a mother. it’s also horrible seeing the disgusting comments people make about how “Elain can’t be with Azriel because she can’t have his children!” and it’s sad to see women especially saying this. they truly lack empathy..

this is a real situation that can happen and it can be a heartbreaking time for many people who deal with infertility..

don’t ever be afraid to call someone out on this. you are not “too sensitive” or “taking it too seriously as it’s just a book”..

that being said, i want you to look what sarah has said both in and out of the books then take a walk outside and seek help if you still think it’s okay to say such harmful comments on this topic towards other people ♡

“If I am a High Lord’s mate, I’m expected to bear you offspring, aren’t I? So perhaps I shouldn’t.”

“You are not expected to bear me anything,” he snarled. “Children are rare, yes. So rare, and so precious. But I don’t want you to have them unless you want to—unless we both want to. ..” ->a court of mist and fury, ch. 55

Rhys said to Azriel, “If I had not met a shadowsinger, I would not have known that it is the family you make, not the one you are born into, that matters. I would not have known what it is to truly hope, even when the world tells you to despair.” Azriel bowed his head in thanks. ->a court of wings and ruin, ch. 69

“I don’t see much of a reason to hang around,” Bryce said coldly. “I don’t see why you’d want to, either. You’re chattel to them. To the Autumn King, to Morven, to your dad. Your only value comes from your breeding potential. They don’t give a fuck if you’re smart or brave or kind. They only want you for your uterus, and Luna spare me if you have any troubles with it.” ..

“And you’re cool with it?” Bryce countered, unable to stop the sharpness in her voice. “You’re cool with being used and treated like that? That you’re lesser than them? You’re cool with having no rights, no say in your future? You’re cool with a life where you either belong to your male relatives or your husband?” ->house of flame and shadow, ch. 53

Yes, Bryce was his sister, and he had his mother, but it wasn’t the same, somehow, as this ting he was about to begin with Lidia. It didn’t matter if they had kids, or if her sons were enough—he and Lidia would be a family. ->house of flame and shadow bonus, ch.

“Motherhood doesn’t need to be glossed over. It doesn’t need to be something that’s seen as weak. Someone being in a loving relationship with a person and choosing to bring a new life into this world, and to share their world and open up their hearts to someone, that’s a beautiful thing. However you make a family, that is a beautiful, wonderful thing and it is not a weakness. ->Alex Cooper ft. Sarah J. Maas, Call Her Daddy Podcast

I have so much I wanna say about the warframe community right now, and it's not kind.

What do you mean that you think the triad are poorly written? What do you mean they aren't as compelling as the Hex? What do you mean the Lotus isn't a fucking victim of- let's be very fucking clear here- rape and domestic abuse?

I know media literacy is dead, but you play a game that doesn't require too much brain power, especially if you just want to play the main quests and call it a day.

I forgot how toxic the f1 fandom can be, especially online on platforms like Tumblr.

People shitting on Lando or Oscar just because they like one diver more is insane.

I just spent 20 under the "fuckpiastri" tag and my god the things some people say are insane.

On the flip side some things said about Lando particular on Tiktok are also crazy.

Yes, they are people we don't know and don't understand.

And yes they are over privileged, white, millionaire men who race and travel for a living.

But come on. Some of you are so fucking toxic it's actually got to be doing something to you mentally.

You can have a favourite driver that you want to win the races/ champion but like the amount of crazy shit is not necessary.

Pack your shit up, your making this fandom not fun and giving us a bad rep.

i have something to say for the ask blog community (anything really but ive only noticed in the dhmis ones cuz obviously), SOME people really need to understand that the people behind these ask blogs ARE human and need breaks or else they will burn out from the project in whole.

ive noticed this back in 2020 and i didnt expect it to STILL be here in 2026… i understand that you guys love the idea/ask blog but understand that art blocks or burn outs or life in general can happen in any moment.

im not saying that you should stop being excited or stop wondering when the next post is coming out because it does happen, it happened to me with my fav ask blogs but do NOT spam the mod if the blog is dead (even just one ask because it gives more stress to the mod to continue drawing even at their lowest despite not wanting to) just be patient and be understanding until the next post or a mod post saying on why the ask blog is on hold.

no revenge, I just hope you change.

Unpopular Take #7

Rant: ai prompters are winning.

Just found a fairly popular writing account with works that are so painfully clearly ChatGPT copy-pastes. The pattern is there. The sentence structures, the overuse of emotional intensifiers, the repetitive flat metaphors, "like prayer" "like a whisper" "like a secret". It's almost impressive to see an ai-writer be so unbothered about making the writing "sound human" and even more impressive the amount of comments praising and believing this is actually human authorship.

Look, I get it. The use of AI is becoming inevitable in the entertainment industry. I'm not anti-AI. I'm flexible. I'm open-minded. I'm all for AI assistance within boundaries. If you use it for an outline, to brainstorm, to fight writer's block? Cool. As long as the final content was written using your own words, in your personal style that you took years to develop, under your own unique creative vision.

But when you're copy-pasting whole chapters without even bothering to edit? That's not writing. That's content-farming. Not cool.

And to see so many people believing these copy-pastes are human? That is just sad. Please educate yourselves. Don't jump on AI hate trends blindly. Use AI writing tools. See why it can't, and will never, replace authentic human writing. Study the difference. Learn how to distinguish algorithmic mimicry from actual human creativity. How do you expect to combat frauds if you can't even tell the difference? We're praising the very people we should be hunting down. Lead with curiosity, not disdain.

I will not be exposing the account, only that it's in the TMNT fandom. But if they do ever see this blog, please do better. Read a book or two. Value authenticity. At the very least, be transparent about the source of your writing. You have fans who genuinely look up to you. Is a temporary ego boost really worth lying to them? :(
