it's completely fine to be an adult who likes children's media, i openly and proudly am one, but for the love of god im begging y'all to stop acting like any adults who Aren't interested in stuff made for children are shooting your dog when they say that. its embarrassing for you, it makes the rest of us look bad, and it sure as hell doesn't do anything to convince the greater population that there is any value in these works for people with, to put it gently, more mature taste and temperaments.

Sometimes "rarepair" means "you are literally the only person who posts about this on tumblr dot com" and you have to learn to be okay with that.

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

"only 90s kids remember-" wrong, if you're poor and/or rural enough, old tech and fashion doesn't just disappear when it stops being trendy. We had dial-up until 2012

i know the way people talk about their pets now is probably how we’ve been doing it for all of history. a cat owner in ancient rome saw their cat lounging on the dining pillows and commented “he thinks himself to be the senator claudius 🤣”

So a dead Black man is being used to promote a dog shit video game. But its ok because his estate gave permission... but that estate is not owned by his family. Strangers are profiting off his death, selling his image like a product. Genocide upon the whites and genocide upon the gamers.

Oh my god I’m over here thinking its this big hard to explain thing but here you are explaining it perfectly in nine words wtf
