Well shit, Henry Jenkins, out here in 1997 dropping truth bombs

[addressmysol]

Oh hey I need this for a research paper I'm writing, thank you!

[angstbotfic]

i mean he had been out here since 1988 dropping such bombs:

"'fandom' is a vehicle of marginalized subcultural groups (women, the young, gays, etc.) to pry open space for their cultural concerns within dominant representations; it is a way of appropriating media texts and rereading them in a way that serves different interests, a way of transforming mass culture into a popular culture"

Jenkins, Henry. “Star Trek Rerun, Reread, Rewritten: Fan Writing as Textual Poaching.” Critical Studies in Mass Communication 5, no. 2 (1988): 85–107. https://doi.org/10.1080/15295038809366691.  

there are even some earlier works in fan studies but that’s what i have ready to hand.

This mental image was so funny to me in the novel and here's the panel from the manhwa:

I am sad they didn't add the fallen lantren that set the floor on fire but it's still so funny .

[yeahnoyeah51]

You know something that really breaks me heart but is also funny for some reason to me is that Rogar and Gaban had kids around the same time but Rayleigh never did.

Like Rayleigh was the first to be in a relationship between the three of them if him and Shakky started dating after God Valley or even a few years later, and they never had kids.

On a lighter note: He raised 2 kids already

On a darker note: the man doesn't wanna be alive anymore, so why even?

Colon is only 2 years younger than Ace. And I know that gaints age much slower but I would like to think that if Roger was alive that he would take Ace to meet Gaban and Colon.

That Ace would think of Colon as another younger brother, that Gaban and Roger would brag about their kids and tease Rayleigh about not having one and him replying "Didn't we already raise two I don't understood why you both wanted to do it again!," and they would laugh.

And maybe when Ace is much older and Colon can set sail on his own that they would go on their own adventure and part ways to go after their dreams fully believing that they are much cooler than their fathers.

Being a writer is wierd bc why am I reading about the mating habit of birds for a dragon character of mine at the crack of dawn

[reginleif-valkyrie]

The only time you can post this in our world.

Thanks, Grandpa Ron!

[yeahnoyeah51]

Me to Yona season 2, tears in my eyes and hope in my heart : Thank you for coming back

Looking at OHHC: There is hope

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

can’t even joke about wishing my fics could write themselves without people mistaking it for ai usage anymore. what a lost whimsy

[yeahnoyeah51]

I used to say *I wish the characters would come to life and retell the events for me" and I can't even say that anymore cause character bots

[yeahnoyeah51]

I am going to ramble a bit so excuse me BUT spoilers for God Valley so watch out

So we finally got a name for Shanks' mum and it's Magnolia. A moment of celebration pls 🎊🎉🎊🥳

AND

It's a flower name so I get read up on flower and their symbolism. Before this I actually was writing a post about how Shanks' mum has been holding me by the neck telling me to not forget her and I didn't. And when I found out she was named I had to go check, I am still not sure about it but she is named in the popularity poll so I guess it's conformed now. (Go vote for my girl Magnolia, girl had less panels than Shamrock 😔)

Magnolias have actually a long and really interesting history so I am only sharing what I find interesting

1) Red Magnolias can symbolize passion and romance.

Magnolia really seemed like the romantic with her wanting to marry that mf and settle down. (which is funny bc Roger wanted the same)

2) Magnolias are so old they are actually pollinated by beetles and not bees

I think there is something more about her bc Oda hasn't shown her face and kept it pretty fast but I need to know. But if she has a history that extend to the void century or further back OMG

3) The flower was given after the infidelity of an old lover.

I actually found only one source for this but I wanna believe it true bc it's perfect for the story as it is rn. Magnolia was going through it.

I need Oda to give her a backstory dammit

[yeahnoyeah51]

There is 3 ways to kin a character:

1) I relate to this character's thoughts and/or actions

2) They remind me of myself in way that makes me feel a little called out for my flaws

3) You should've died the moment you took your first breath

[melonteee]

Finally have my new video out!

And it's my turn to talk about the Strawhats' first mate! It's my turn dammit! (I forgot to add the spoiler warning at the start so don't watch if you're an anime only)

[yeahnoyeah51]

I need someone to die in Elbaf purely to have a viking funeral like Stoick's from httyd.

I need Ussop to be the one to light the boat with a fire arrow like back in Enis Lobby.

Tell that won't be just epic.

[yeahnoyeah51]

When starting a show I usually take a "What character are you" from said show before watching it.

Starred watching Supernatural and I got Bobby whom I live dearly. He is what I will become in the future.

I also got this guy Castiel and I was waiting for him to appear. it's season 4 and the guy burned a woman's eyes out so I don't know if I like him yet but he gave her a warning so.....putting that on the scale as well.

Edit: Finished season 4 and I love him. him putting everything behind to do what he knows is right was beautiful also the conversation with Anna and the "Tell me what do" "you have to find that for yourself " was absolutely amazing . Also also Misha Collin the actor that you are wtf Castiel and Jimmy are so different it really feels like he was possessed.

[yeahnoyeah51]

He lost his shoe

[yeahnoyeah51]

I would like a cashier in my brain to scan whatever I am about to say and be like

*Beeb* That would be your degnity and 3 to 4 years of remembering this moment before bed and every time you are sleep deprived ,it is also my duty to inform you that is not socialy normal so you will be remembered by this by many, would you like a plastic bag

And I would answer: no thank you, I would rather not go through that

And avoid the whole thing

[yeahnoyeah51]

Having mythological character in different mediums is a trip I swear like Uriel in ORV vs SPN.

I love orv uriel that girl is me and I am her but spn uriel can go step on a Lego for all I care. Still in season 4 so I don't know if he gets better but I don't care he is giving me headaches.

[yeahnoyeah51]

Does anyone know what happened to the other souls in LCF like the ones White Star kicked out like Cale.

So Cale became Kim Rok Soo bc he was kicked out of his body and his soul transfered and we got Kim Rok Soo but what about the previous bodies that WS took over (this guy has been alive for so long but he was human in all his reincarnations so he lived 80 to 100 years each time) what happened to their souls and do they have the WS curse (where everyone they love eventually dies and life is bland) or is it just Cale and him being an unlucky bastard.

I am not caught up with part 2 so if it was explained my bad
