i'm not that good, but i'm not that bad

AND IT’S JUST MMM BOI

BC IT’S GOT GOOD GRAMMAR AND SPELLING

AND THE PLOT MAKES SENSE

AND THE CHARACTERS ARE WELL WRITTEN

Stop hating actors for NOT validating your shipwars.

STOP WITH THE MOTHERFUCKING SHIPWARS.

Shipping is supposed to be FUN. If you are weaponizing it and using it to attack others, you are WRONG and you should feel BAD. 

Your ship does not need to be canon in order to be valid and if you think it does then you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the entire concept of shipping.

You’re entitled to your opinion, but other people are entitled to theirs, even if they disagree with you.
