tumblr's prolly gonna delete half my shit so this is a backup b/c i can't even get the download to work (guess 2 gb is too much for my miserable connection to handle without shitting out like 5 network errors)
now that’s what i call ineffective tumblr discourse! featuring such hits as “why aren’t you talking about this thing you didn’t know about”, “this 3-hour-old post has 20k notes instead of 100k clearly you’re all willfully ignoring it”, “if you don’t reblog this you’re a bad person”, & more manipulative bullshit that only exists to make the person saying it feel holier than thou!

someone: i’m going to be as offensive as possible because i think it’s funny
other people: ok, we can’t stop you, but publicly offending large groups of people may lead to personal and professional consequences
them: wait no that’s not fair
one day all the people in this fandom will move on and many will become accomplished writers out in the real world and they’ll be original and unique and never betray their fandom origins, but one day you’ll pick up a book off the shelf at a bookstore and it’ll be written in second person present and you’ll just Know
a book in 2020: “She absconded down t-” me, crying: “I found one”
my favorite part of this post is i didnt even specify which fandom and 1300 people still knew exactly what i meant
stop believing that you ran out of time to shape yourself into who you want to be! stop believing that its ruined! stop believing you don’t have potential! you are not a fixed being! you have endless opportunities to grow.
