See you there!

okay, still can't access my interview tumblr so I'mma say it here, due to some things I've seen in the tag.
Lets go!
Now, one post I saw, talked about how fans (mainly Louis fans) wanted to pretend like the show runners and etc, didn't say they would revisit ep 5. And while that might be true, I'm not one of them. I'll be honest on my feelings about it.
If they change it, I think it's a bull-shit cop out and I've be heavily disappointed with interview if they went that route. Why? Because I'm tired of black people and poc being made liars and etc! Oh, it's not about race you say? YES IT IS. IT'S ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT RACE IN THE AMC. THEY MENTION IT, THEY MAKE A POINT TO MENTION.
I have consumed enough media about black people and black men being made lairs. I have consumed enough media of black women being maligned.
SICK OF IT.
That's one half of it. The only half, is the main reason why I stopped reading the book series. I wasn't a Lestat fan. In fact, the Lestat I cared about seeing grow and etc, was dropped in favor of making him this perfect godly man at the expense of dropping Louis.
And that brings me to Lestat fans. I want the drop to be real because I'm sick of Lestat discounting everything that Louis says, by calling him a liar. That is why I did not continue the book series. Because anything bad Lestat does, can be excused with, well, Louis is lying. It's lazy story telling to me. But mainly.
The drop was the only time I saw Lestat fans (and more so speaking of the show) have to accept and talk about what Lestat did. I'll be honest, I didn't need the drop to feel some type of way about Lestat. I felt that every single time, he dismissed what his partner, A BLACK MAN FELT. Lestat violence was clear to me and made me feel a way, when he was completely READY to make his BLACK husband, be his VALET, so he could see an opera.
Do you know how fucked up that is? Do you not understand that I'd would've left the relationship in a heartbeat? Like why would you put your partner through that? Like fucking hell. That's what was hurtful.
And while Lestat will do long discourse about how Claudia or Louis is the issue, there, weren't, long detailed post about how that was fucked of Lestat to do. The causal racism that Lestat is willing to benefit from and be apart of, no deep thoughts on that.
There should've been essay's on essay's on how telling your black partner that you want him to be your fucking valet to a racist opera house to make YOU happy. When Louis expressed his feelings for Lestat and Lestat laughs? Oh, he's so cute and funny. But this is a character people call emotional closed off (Louis), opening himself up and GETTING LAUGHED AT. But then Louis will get picked at by fans for never saying I love you.
He opened himself to asking his partner if he's good enough and he gets laughed at. Everyone will talk about the 'of course' Lestat says when he's lying to himself but not the minute before, when he laughed in his husbands face. And do ya'll know how hard is for a black man to open himself up like that? Only to be laughed at. Or the non-discriminating scene, no long post about how it's been years but Lestat still doesn't CARE to understand the racism and nastiness that Louis is going through. He just doesn't care. And that is violence to me.
So, I always knew that they would revisit ep 5 but I still think it's a bullshit cop out to change it.
I'm the biggest bo bo the fool bc I still ship it. But I don't need to make excuses to do so. I still love the fucking toxic mess but the fans...it's always the fans.

hello, do you know if the blog animepopheart is a reposter? i used to trust them before, but i found it odd that they reposted this piece by artist wacca005 (https://www.tumblr.com/animepopheart/746667102981734400) when the artist and even this exact art is already posted on tumblr, and sadly the reposted version has, at the time of writing this, 5x more notes than the original post by the artist (https://www.tumblr.com/wacca005/746700085159706624). sorry to ask this out of the blue but unfortunately the animepopheart blog has both asks and replies disabled, but i thought you might know better than me. thanks in advance!
Hello anon! you're not the first one to ask me about this blog. I'm gonna be honest, I think they do have artists consent, I saw enough proofs about it in the past so I have no reason to doubt that.
It's true that it's a shame that they repost (even with permission) from an artist who already has their own blog.
Actually, they talked about it in their permission detail here (read "Why don’t you reblog from artists’ Tumblr accounts?") and well, personally I don't agree with their way of doing things at all concerning this topic....
But in the end, it's the artist decision, if they were ok with that even though they had a blog, well, there's nothing wrong. But I can understand it can bother you.

I once saw a post talking about DNIs on fanfic, and I'm pretty sure that fanfic DNIs originate from people getting harassed over the ships in their fics, which has led to people saying if you ship X (say it's a popular ship for the fandom that you don't ship) then DNI; which, based on my interpretation of the meaning of DNI, means "Don't talk about X on my fic" because of the amount of people who will harass creators over ships
Let me bring up Fl*werfell. For those in the Undertale AU fandom, you may have heard of it. You may think of it as the Fr*ns (au and ship censored so as to not show up when people are looking for content on those things). That's not true. The original FF never had Fr*ns. The original creator got harassed over this, and people would even re-upload the whole au but edited to be Fr*ns, which also led to them being harassed for "having" that ship in it.
Tl;dr: DNIs on fanfic most likely began as a way to mitigate harassment over ships. And if you don't like, don't read and just leave.
