Courtney, a Black mom of 3 of her own kids and three who she took in (to keep them out of the system), lost her job very recently as a result of cancer complications and treatment meaning she had to miss a bunch of shifts. She has dealt with homelessness chronically in past and has stabilized over the last few years to have (unstable due to the amount of people she has to support on a single income but consistent/continuous) housing and it’s critical she keeps it that way. Even better would be to give her a chance at actual stability for a few months if this actually gets spread around. Her most critical need is to get a bus pass for her oldest daughter who still has a job so that they still have extra income to keep paying rent.

mcyt fans NEED to learn that it is not normal for the creator of a media to be so enmeshed with the fandom

it is not healthy, and it's not safe, for both the creators and the audience members

"i think newer mcyt fans dont understand creators just interact with the fandom, that's just how it is" IT SHOULDN'T BE. the line between creator and fans should be CLEAR AND BORDERLINE IMPERMEABLE, because if not, that's how an unhealthy parasocial relationship is formed BOTH WAYS

the creators can appreciate the fan creations, they can interact with them in dedicated spaces like meet and greets, they can contact fans to showcase cool fanart in designated spaces (be it lives, and such) BUT THEY SHOULD NOT BE IN SPACES MEANT FOR FANS

not even because of boundaries or shipping or anything, there are people who do NOT want to be perceived, who do not want their headcanons or theories to be seen and talked about by the people making the official version of it. LITERALLY any person coming from other fandoms will tell you how fucking bizarre it is to go into mcyt spaces and see the ccs openling hanging around the fans' spaces giving their 2 cents of everything in there

mcyt ccs are chronically online and THEY need to learn that THEY are not supposed to be welcomed with open hands in all fanspaces

THEY need to learn to put a limit on what THEY look up about THEMSELVES online
