im not saying that these creators are above criticism or anything so callous but you all have to know on some level that getting really personal about these people isn't healthy, right? and that multiple people work on these properties, not just one person? you just Cannot analyze character arcs anymore without people butting into the conversation to explain their weird freaky headcanons about "actually the only thing here worth analyzing is the fact the writer is bitter and lonely and jaded and—" what the FUCK are you talking about???? HOW did you think this contributes to the conversation???? how did an attempt at media analysis for fun turn into some shitty bitter elementary school gossip???

and i know people will assume the fandom this post is about based on my blog (and it IS about that) but this goes for SO MUCH media nowadays. this is everywhere. i'll take a peek into a fandom for a new cartoon that came out and be met with hellfire beyond my wildest comprehension because some fan-favorite character didn't get enough attention or something equally vapid. "is [x cartoon] the worst fandom of all time?", everyone asks, as if it's not Most of Them. its inescapable. i cannot express enough how hostile the mere idea of being a professional creator is nowadays because of this culture. meanwhile everyone just perpetuates it like it's acceptable to speak violent fantasies of, or just generally constantly whine about, someone who worked on an episode of a cartoon you didn't like.

no, you don't actually know any of the things you are saying about these people's personal lives or beliefs. you don't know any of what you're saying. "but i heard—" i don't care. this is gossip. and i don't care if there's some tweet that vaguely supports your theory, either. these are real people and not characters. you cannot just form 'headcanons' about them based on implication. have you never had your words misunderstood? have you never worded a thought poorly? this is not interesting gossip. it's not thoughtful. it just makes you look bitter and vaguely creepy, and it's ruining fandom spaces. media analysis isn't fun when all the replies and comments are more interested in childish gossip than actually engaging in art. writing stories or comics isn't fun when the comments use your work as a vessel to complain about all the writers they have parasocial thoughts on, either.

Well, darn. You'a caught us banning a disproportionate number of'a trans women and people of'a color. These suspensions took ten thousand'a years to reverse, and some of them we didn't even reverse because we'a fucking hate you.

We'a sorry it took so long to address this! We'a really hoping our pathetic april fools gimmick'a distract everyone else to'a forget about the situation! And for most of you, it'a worked! We'a can't discuss our trust and safety issues publicly because the paper on our board just'a say "get rid of all the people we consider freaky" and if we announce that we'a gonna lose our privilaged "Tumblr’s userbase has the highest proportion of LGBTQIA+ folks on social media" claim!

One thing we want to emphasize is that we are stupid, stupid, stupid'a people. Our CEO, Matt Mullenweg, is a pathetic moron who'a try sucking up to'a Elon Musk on'a X despite the tire fire over there. You'a know he searches up his own name and harasses Tumblr blogs whenever they'a say bad things about him, right? We moderate this website with extreme bias and will cry like'a babies when called out on it.

We understand that the communications sent to affected'a users, and our broader silence to'a the community, didn't meet the standard people expect from us. Or rather, it has become the standard and the userbase'a livid with us. We'a plan on announcing changes to how we do this and not actually following through with them, because we'a do not care.

Going forward, we're committed to ruling with impunity: lying wholesale when confronted with our'a faults, and never sharing any information outside of'a vagueposting.

Tumblr belongs to everyone. Except'a minorities, people of color, trans women, and anyone who'a advocates for them.

To the people whose accounts were affected, and to the members of our trans community who felt targeted: eat'a shit.

welcome to the city of lumiose, where i indulge in my love of pokemon to make a miraculous AU out of it (this is just a standalone for fun btw, I'm not going to continue this or anything)

I feel like Marinette's pokemon are mostly self-explanatory (did you guys know Leavanny is known for being a pokemon that makes clothes?). Adrien's are all either single-stage or not-fully-evolved because I feel like it's symbolic; he too is still on a journey of self-discovery, yknow? + absol with the angel wing imagery + minior with the "hiding behind a mask" symbolism. And then morpekos because, you know, hamsters (i think it's technically supposed to be a guinea pig but shhh)

anyway, please don't roast me for my choices lol, but I am interested to hear what other pokemon you guys think they would have! the pokemon they keep in their boxes, etc. there were some others i wanted to give them but I limited myself to only 6 each

(btw... Gabriel trying to get to Xerneas and Yveltal works scarily well. thank u lumiose for being so miraculous coded)
