help me out here, people

I'm having a disagreement with my family, and it's turning into a whole Thing, so I turn to you, the fine people of tumblr

Have you ever heard the word "panopticon" before, and do you know (without looking it up!) what it means?

I have heard it before, and I know what it means

I've heard it before, but I don't know what it means

I haven't heard this word before, and I don't know what it means

Remaining time: 5 days 10 hours

Reblog for reach, and thank you in advance for your answers

“Do dishes” and “take out trash” both require the use of a spell slot, vs “use phone” is a cantrip, and brother, I am a level one wizard

[ovenroastedtwerkey]

And that's on a good day, where "do the dishes" is JUST the one single spell slot. Sometimes it's:

Put away the dry stuff from the rack

Hang up the stuff from the machine that was still wet

Dry by hand the stuff that doesn't fit in the rack

And THEN you can finally start loading up the dishwasher

And on the bad days, you keenly feel all four of those spell slots

I’m not trying to attack you or anything, just trying to get a more clear idea.

But from what I’m understanding a creator posted a boundary about something they’re uncomfortable with and you’re just deciding to ignore it?? If so, that’s actually insanely disrespectful. If not, is there possibly something more clarifying to say?

I’m actually glad you asked! This is probably the last post I’m going to be making on this subject, but let me provide you with a comparison that might make things easier to understand.

This is a bit like someone you know saying; “Hey, people listening to rap music makes me uncomfortable, can you please stop?”

And it’s like… what? I mean, I can… not play it out loud when I know you’re around. A bit of a weird request to make, but if it’s really that bad, then I don’t mind making accommodations.

And they reply with; “No. The fact that people listen to it all makes me uncomfortable. I want you to stop listening to it entirely. It’s against my boundaries.”

Which like… that isn’t a boundary. A boundary is something that dictates how people interact with YOU. Like, I can’t even listen to it in my OWN privacy? How the hell does that affect you in any way, shape, or form? That isn’t a boundary, it’s an attempt to control my personal agency and interests. I don’t even have to LIKE rap music very much for this to be a problem.

Then they say; “If I catch you or anyone else in this community listening to or creating rap music, then I will be sending people to harass and excommunicate you from this space.”

like… ??? I’m sorry, but that’s absurd. You do realize how that’s entirely absurd and unreasonable, right? In a community that is known for loving and thrives off of it? It is not our job to coddle your internet experience- if something is triggering or makes you uncomfortable then it is your responsibility to avoid those things. I am not shoving these things in your face, and at this point you’re only going to find it if you are actively looking for it.

This doesn’t even begin to address the issue of queer-baiting and internalized homophobia of the matter. A fan space ultimately belongs to the fans, first and foremost. If there is something that makes you uncomfortable, then you don’t have to interact with it at all. When you share a creation, you forfeit control over how people perceive and interpret those things, that’s just the nature of art and performance. If you truly cannot handle the way people interact with the things you make, then perhaps this is not a career you are fully equipped to handle.

Hopefully this helps explain a couple things- this allegory has been floating around in my mind for a while, and I appreciate the excuse to share my perspective on things.

Additionally, yes, there is a lot of character bleed with minecraft characters. But if you cannot handle that fandoms will create fanworks with your character, it is on You as a content creator to step back, if you have set boundaries and that is not enough.

Before the big charity event that Hermitcraft had this spring, Gem and Pearl set a hard boundary about fans shipping them. They requested that no one would use the main tags for shipping content, and said that any shipping in chat would be met with a ban. The fandom accepted this without issues. Fanwork creators went to their shipping tags, and everyone was happy.

This is equal to a friend asking you to turn off the rap music when you both are in the same room. If you like rap music, you may be sad, but should turn it off. But you may not invite the friend over to your house as often as you did before.

What Pyro has done is not the same. He wants a full stop of all creation of shipping content involving his character and another character.

This is a friend asking you to stop playing rap music even when they cannot hear it. Even if you only play it at parties they are not invited to.

republicans: homeless people should be ground into sausage and fed to schoolchildren

democrats: persons experiencing houselessness should be ground into sausage and fed to schoolchildren

[txttletale]

this post posits a utopian world where either of these parties would support feeding schoolchildren, making it a masterclass in "hopepunk"

[redstonedust]

having anti punitive justice morals sucks because you want to say "man that guy sucks he should get hit with hammers until he dies" but you also want to make it clear you don't think anyone should be put in charge of the 'hit people with hammers until they die" machine.
