Itâs always insane to me when people DM me to yell at me about breaching their DNI because I reblogged a post from them
Like how chronically online are you that youâre checking the blogs of everyone who reblogs from you
And I genuinely mean that. Even if the post only has like 10 notes at best. How much free time do you have to check the blogs of all 10 of those notes, and then go OUT OF YOUR WAY to message anyone who doesnât fit your strict guidelines for human interaction. And I know some of yâall donât just check but you DIG, because some of the stuff I get DMed about is not advertised on my blog as soon as you look at it.
How do you all survive outside of the internet when every persons political opinions and stances on fictional content arenât displayed to you right off the bat.
Like Iâm not kidding. Thatâs not normal. You are not the normal one in this situation. Please put your phone down for at least a week and go outside.
I love how someone got SO mad at my post that basically boiled down to âIf youâre digging through the blogs of strangers who reblog from you, on the strangers reblogging from people website, to dig up dirt on them - thatâs not normal behavior and you should stopâ that they sent me a paragraph of anon hate
Yeah man youâre real normal. You won. I was a fool to think that perhaps that was unhealthy behavior.
My bg3 m00ts, strangers, and everything in between. I have a question. As Astarion himself later points out, trusting him early on is objectively stupid, and yet so many of us do. So: if you let him turn you into a juice box, what was your Tav's in-character, roleplay reason for doing so? Your Tav:
is self sacrificing and generous to a fault.
is trusting to a fault.
has an affinity for "monsters" and outsiders and tries to look out for them.
is a masochist and/or has a biting/vampirism kink and/or just thinks it's hot.
figured that if they can't trust their companions then they're fucked anyway.
was confident in their ability to fight him off if necessary.
saw the logic in keeping all their companions fed and in battle trim.
was already too smitten to care.
is such an idiot.
has something else entirely going on (put it in the tags)
didn't have an "in character" reason, they're just a vessel for my whims.
didn't let him bite, I just want to see the answers.
Edit: so yeah a lot of people are saying "I was manipulating him too" which I should have thought of but just. Didn't. And I genuinely forgot "my tav has a death wish" which I did think of but then spaced when I was making the poll. Sorry about that. :(
very genuinely depends which tav/durge
tiefling? first character, just want to have fun.
drow dude? clocked him as a vamp immediately and decided that, unfortunately, this is the only other being he cares about. he views himself as Astarion's knight in not so shiny armor (and Astarion is the only companion he's recruiting)
drow LASS? immediately smitten in the same way you would be with a cute animal. force him to bite the drow at moonrise? of COURSE NOT, that vampire is her property, no one else gets to feel that kind of satisfaction in regards to him. let him ascend? of COURSE NOT, she's not going to give her property more weaponry. this is very much a Bad End for Astarion, she just prefers to use metaphorical honey to lure/control him.
cranky murderhobo satyr(game mod)? hates most people and would prefer Astarion NOT feed on innocent animals if he doesn't need to.
githyanki dude? shrug emoji seemed like the thing to do at the time (I mostly want to see the unique options for githyanki but I mean... I'm going to woo the vampire so may as well...)
my belf hunter who got isekai'd into the game (fight me)? he just wants to do his part to make the world a place he wants to live in (be kind, be kind, be kind, until u can't. then make heads roll.)
tumblr stop eating my asks and replies challenge impossible I guess
I hate you shipping discourse I hate you unnecessarily aggressive DNI banners I hate you dehumanization of those you disagree with I hate you harassment over ships or favorite characters I hate you purposeful lack of nuance I hate you false equivalencies I hate you policing how people engage in fandom I hate you actively trying to make fandom spaces hostile I hate you refusal to filter your feed I hate you making it everyone elseâs problem
another zadrday, another attempt to understand. this time I'm posting this earlier in hopes it gets seen by more ppl in the tag.
please. PLEASE. why are so many of you "proship dni"? it sounds like the "no kink at pride" or "if we just acted differently the normies would accept us" baby gays and I am genuinely concerned.
the "pro" doesn't stand for "problem". just like in EVERY other instance of it being used as a prefix (pro-choice, pro-life, pro-sex, etc) it stands for "support". as in anti-censorship.
that's it.
that's all it means.
it DOES NOT mean you like this, that, or the other thing.
it DOES NOT mean you think X, Y, or Z should be legal irl.
the ONLY thing it indicates is that you feel censoring fiction is not okay, no matter what the fiction is. because ACTIONS are what matter, not thoughts.

People seem to have forgotten that "proship" was the Fandom norm for the longest time.
Only, it wasn't called proship. It was called ship and let ship. Or minding your own buisness.
If someone had a ship you didn't like or thought was gross, you would avoid them. If they drew art or wrote stories you didn't agree with or like, you would ignore them.
There were tags like smut, whump, and angst to tell people about things they might not want to read. And then dead dove: do not eat for taboo subjects and especially gritty fic.
Then people started to ignore that. Younger fans started to bully people because they disagreed with shipping certain characters. Whether it be because it "wasn't canon", they thought it was gross, or they just didn't like it.
These people began calling themselves "anti-ship"
Pro-ship became a label to show that someone was against anti-ship.
Eventually, the anti-ship movement began to die down. So do you know what they did? They started accusing people. Of being pedophiles, groomers, rape supporters, and more. All because they wrote or drew things that these people didn't like.
They began claiming that THEY were the Fandom norm, and that these "proshippers" were the bad people. They started claiming that proship stood for "problematic shipping"
Due to this, the term "pro-ship" is often misconstrued as to what it means. Many people don't even KNOW what it means.
It means "anti-censorship".
It means that we support someone's right to produce art, no matter how gross, no matter how taboo, no matter how "problematic"
Because it's not hurting anyone.
If it's something you don't want to see? Block the person. Block the tag. Say in your bio that you don't like it. That's what they're FOR!
This was discussed in earlier days of fandom.
"I wonder why people would read a story in a genre they don't care for, then take the time to let the writer know that sure enough, they didn't care for it. That would be like me going to a restaurant, ordering a slice of cherry pie, then asking that the chef be brought out so I can say "I don't like cherry pie, and I didn't like yours either." To continue this analogy into its usual fannish outcome, the chef would say "Well gee, lady, why did you order it?" And I'd say, "Are you questioning my right to order cherry pie?"
-Unknown 2002
Except now, it would be like the person who didn't like the cherry pie and ordered it anyways then demanded that no restaurant serve cherry pie because it was poison. Not only is it a ridiculous request, it's blatantly untrue.
Every single one of the usual anti arguments is just them trying to put a moral veneer over a ship war in an effort to prove that your ship is bad and gross and problematic, therefore their ship is good and pure and correct.
I think we should all start calling anti nonsense what it is: a ship war with some new paint on it.
"Pro-shippers DNI" reads to me like "I believe people who think it's okay that cherry pie exists in the universe even though I don't want to eat cherry pie sully me by liking or reblogging my content. How dare they!"
I think we should go back to calling Anti nonsense what we used to call it before DDDNE even existed: wank. Because that's what it is and that's all the time of day the opinions deserve.
GIVE. US. PET MONSTERS. Give us the most horrendous looking creature, an absolutely freaky motherfucker, and have it decide to let a human adopt it, cat style.
And whole we're at it. Let it be suspiciously sentient. The way cats make you feel like they can understand everything you say, they just don't care.
Other specificantions may vary based on your place on the monster-lover to monster-fucker spectrum.
And cuddles!
alright, it's zadrday so I'm going to throw this into the tag and hope like hell someone sees it.
why do so many of you have "proshippers dni" in ur bios??????
it's sounds like the "no kink at pride" or "if you just behaved ""correctly"" the homophobes would respect us!" baby gays and I'm concerned.
I've said this before and I'll say it again: it's more important to know and understand fully why something is harmful than it is to drop everything deemed problematic. It's performative and does nothing. People wonder why nobody has critical thinking skills and this is part of it because no one knows how to simousltansly critique and consume media. You need to use discernment.
This is ultimately why propaganda is going to work on you. Because you never learned how to think for yourself and the actual ideology behind things. You simply rely on group think and the bare minimum explanations to tell you what's good and bad.
OH NO

what would entering ur blog sound like
Spanish Flea
Zimâs age
This was entirely written for fun, do whatever you want with this/feel free to debate đđ
I tend to lean more toward him being an adult because his people seem to think of him as an adult. if other people donât want to interpret it that way, thatâs fine, I suppose, but personally, I donât want to try and interpret an alien species as if itâs not an alien. whatâs the fucking point of him being an alien, then?
Jhonen is a troll and likes to contradict himself and just mess with people. also, death of the author yadda yadda.
but I think my main point is that zadr/f fans who prefer to interpret him as a child forget this implies he would be a child soldier. and, guys... I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but a child soldier is nothing like the 12 y/o down the lane, no matter how neglected that kid is.
this gives 2 options for zadr shippers:
adult alien/Dib
child soldier/Dib
NEITHER of these is a âhealthyâ or âacceptableâ relationship irl. NEITHER of these should be tolerated irl.
note the emphasis on irl. because REAL LIFE and REAL PEOPLE are different than FICTION and FICTIONAL PEOPLE. the law doesnât treat them the same for good reason.
irken/child character shippers, letâs talk. we like something that would be morally fucked up if it were real people. thatâs fine. because they arenât real people.
but do you know what else is fine? what is, in fact, perfectly legal? not aging Dib up. if you want to, that is fine. perfectly fine. COMPLETELY understandable, in fact. but itâs ALSO fine if you donât. you are not a fucked up person if you want to WRITE about it when Dib is canon age. (DRAWING it is a different kettle of fish.) fiction is there SPECIFICALLY to safely explore shit that should not (or even could not, since IRKENS ARENâT REAL) happen to REAL people.
Game of Thrones has a family where incest isnât just the norm, itâs the EXPECTATION. this is a book that can be read for free in libraries. it was adapted into a SHOW with a prequel series that FOCUSES on the incest family. BECAUSE ITâS FICTION AND THAT IS FINE.
you know what else is in Game of Thrones? underage sex. Daenerys has just gotten her VERY FIRST PERIOD when she is married off to a grown ass man. (who doesnât even speak her language!) she is being married off SPECIFICALLY for that reason. and after the wedding night their relationship is ârape her until she likes itâ. Daeny is pregnant a year after the wedding. they are treated as being one of if not THE most romantic couple in the series.
you know who else has written underage sex that can be read for free in a public library?
Stephen King. in The Library Policeman there is a detailed child rape (four pages!) scene and in the book It there is a (seven page!) gang bang between the kids. the kids who are ELEVEN.
Neither of those authors are in prison because writing about fictional fucked up shit is fine. it does not mean you approve of that shit irl. AND it DOESNâT mean you HAVE TO LIKE IT, either. you are allowed to not like things.
this kind of went off the rails. the point is, people who ship irken/child character are not in fact freaks of nature, nor are we doing something illegal. and if you donât want to associate with people who support that ship? youâd better find a different fandom entirely, because even if Jhonen doesnât care for zadr, there are cast and crew who are fine with or even like it.
these are doodles by people who worked on the movie:
long story short, regardless of the age you interpret Zim, zadr is fucked up and thatâs fine. because itâs fake. you are not a criminal if you enjoy fucked up shit in ur fiction.
