huge fan of when characters love each other and are closely bonded in an explicitly nonromantic way. however ☝️ i am very much not a huge fan of what happens when characters like this are introduced to fandom

people hated my other post about this but idc it needs to be said, but in your obsession with making platonic relationships into romance there is very much a loss of the depth that actually makes the original relationship interesting. and i feel like this is in part due to the idea of a relationship hierarchy and romance being "more than just friends" framing it as something added on top of an already existing relationship making it somehow inherently deeper and more meaningful, when in actuality romantic relationships and platonic relationships are just different relationships of equal importance with no difference in depth or meaning. romantic relationships can be shallow and fleeting or deep and lifelong and so can platonic ones. neither one is more important or better than the other and they aren't interchangeable either. if you change the relationship you are inherently altering the character dynamic and this is often not a good thing

fake "secret third thing" fans when a queerplatonic relationship they can't portray as romance lite walks in

happy birthday to aroallos, to aroaces, and to aros who don't use the split attraction model or are questioning their sexuality; happy birthday to demiromantics and gray-aros, and aroflux and cupioromantic and all other aro-spec folks; happy birthday to aros who do want a marriage and kids or only one but not the other; happy birthday to aros who aren't in or don't want a QPR; happy birthday to aros who reclaim and feel empowered by terms like "loveless;" happy birthday to polyam aros. happy birthday (june 5th, aromantic visibility day) to any and all aromantics 💚

Hey…. Hey… Character’s covered in blood, okay? You remember characters covered in blood?? You used to love characters covered in blood

People demand fans of colour to be soft & gentle & have articulate thought out criticisms at all times. Never be wrong never be loud never be mean you have to coddle White fans and creatives, otherwise you're part of the problem. Never mind that your whole experience in fandom has been one macroaggression after another. Never mind that fandom can never be your escapism, because the discrimination you face in real life is often present in both the media you love and the fandom you participate in. Never mind that even when you are soft & gentle & articulate people will still get angry. Just shut up and let White people go to their beautiful fantasy world where people like you don't exist

I KNOW when characters are bisexual. even when it’s not explicitly said

I'm sure all my settings are set to "yes show me mature content no don't filter anything" what are you TALKING ABOUT

the posts are ON THE WEBSITE. I can't search dirty words?? am I five??? is this club penguin??? when I get you

weird phenomenon where a writer is generally good enough that they don't just phone it in on any major characters but they also have a lot of unexamined prejudices (particularly racism and misogyny) so they do end up write interesting, multifaceted female and of color characters but just. fumble them in strange and unusual ways. like they've done the legwork to write someone fun and layered but care a lot less about them than others and clearly don't expect any audience members to really be pulling for them. it's difficult to explain but it's such a distinct flavor of Problem.
