#and please stop sending death threats

[castielsprostate]

once again i ask of you to please stop looking towards celebrities and influencers for political commentary and their takes on catastrophic and inhumane world events and to instead focus your attention on experts, journalists and world leaders

#sjonnie.text #world events #text post #9/10 of them don't even know how to cut a tomato. why are we expecting them to know (or care enough) about anything #it's frustrating and annoying #and please stop sending death threats #it's not helpful in ANY situation and it makes the person you say this too a lot less inclined to learn ANYTHING

[antimony-medusa]

btw if I see anyone being negative about baghera's lore choices I will look at you so so so sadly and wipe a tear from my eye. being weird and infantilizing about it gets you admission to my highly-curated block list. she gets to do whatever she wants forever.

#I am gripping you by the collar and hissing 'please be normal about women and men interacting' btw #let stories be told with conflict in them and messy interactions #hnnnng I am stopping myself from ranting but just like #consider if a) you would feel the need to commentate publicly if a dude did it #b) if twitter is possibly sending death threats about it #Tallulah also gets to do whatever she wants forever #we can contain multitudes #qsmp #baghera jones #philza

There’s a post going around recently about how the whump community tags for disabled characters and I…have to disagree with its main point.

Simply tagging a post with ‘disabled whumpee’ does not give me enough information to know if a fic will be validating or triggering for me. I need more specific tags to filter out my squicks and triggers, and to identify posts of interest. Specific tags are the keystone of a community that specifically talks about potentially triggering or upsetting content.

For example, I like reading stories with characters that use prostheses and mobility aids. I find these stories relatable and validating as someone with both! But should those posts simply be tagged ‘disabled whumpee’ because it might conflict with the other users of the mobility aids and prostheses tags? I can only find out the nature of the whumpee’s disability by reading, and a negative outcome can at best turn out to be a waste of time or at worst deeply upsetting.

Cancer is a difficult topic for me given my past and current experiences with it. I have the cancer tag and a dozen variants of it blocked. Of course, people on tumblr with cancer or talking about their experiences with it use that tag to talk about it. If someone is writing about a character who has or had cancer, but only tags for ‘disabled whumpee’ I won’t know that I’m getting into a story that will cause me great distress.

I’m disabled. I have severe nerve damage, limited mobility, chronic pain, a plethora of other medical bullshit, and my condition is progressive. Whump is part of how I’ve been learning to deal with and process my struggles, and part of that involves writing and reading about disability in whump.

Do I just block all ‘disabled whumpee’ content and never know if I’m clicking on a story I’ll find relatable and validating or if I’m clicking on a story that will upset me so badly I won’t use tumblr for a few days? No - I block specific tags and specific blogs as necessary. The idea that we should stop using specific tags, when writing about a specific condition or disease, to put everything under one vague blanket is naive at best and dangerous at worst.

I understand the frustration of seeing posts you don’t want to see in a specific tag (the number of x reader headcanon blogs for fandoms I’ve never heard of that I’ve had to block when trying to browse is ridiculous). But at the end of the day if those posts are tagged appropriately (ie. not crosstagged spam in violation of the TOS) you just do what you always do for something you don’t want to see on this site: blacklist, block, and move on.

#whump #whump community #tagging etiquette #beans speaks #it’s fine if you disagree/are changing how you tag your disabled whumpee writing but I’m not so please feel free to block me (genuine) #if you see me in a specific tag you don’t want to see whump writing in #I understand where that post is coming from but also. is we stop tagging specific tags. how the fuck am I supposed to avoid my triggers??? #I just don’t understand tumblr’s block and blacklist options are wayyy more effective than they’ve ever been. #and I don’t see how tagging a post that contains the depiction of apples would be clogging the apple tag? it’s an appropriate use of the tag #do I want to see posts about the fictional mlp character applejack when browsing the apple tag? probably not. #but I understand why the tag search included those posts and why the poster tagged the post with such. I block them and move on. #my blood sugar is low sorry if this is rambly and incoherent and. I don’t know stupid or insensitive? #disabled people are not a monolith we all have different opinions and preferences for how we interact with the topic of our disabilities #and removing specificity for the sake of…inconvenience just seems silly #sorry I haven’t read that post in a few days I might sound like a complete asshole in which case idk send gore and death threats I guess #I haven’t done tumblr discourse since 2015. do people still send KYS or is it all kungpowpenis these days?

it must be hard being so stupid and being such a misogynist. get well soon

if this is about the anti jk rowling post or the fact that im transmasc i think you should be the one focusing on your recovery💀

#i dont usually answer to anon hate. since i've only gotten it. twice now with this #but holy shit come off anon and tell me exactly how im being misogynistic !!!!! go ahead #hp fans are so so fucking painfully cringe stop interacting with my blog please #the one that sent me a death threat clearly could ONLY do that since im being logical. you all are literally just terfs and worse things 💀 #i've got a good joke but i'll only use if you send another ask. i would actually love the opportunity

i think johnzee as a ship is just not my cup of tea, but i love the characters so much as individuals and it sucks to see people arguing johnzee, anti-johnzee ( like. i wouldn’t consider myself an anti. i just think zatanna could be with. wonder woman. that’s what i think. ) on my feed even though i follow neither of the tags.

let people like what they want. i’ve seen johnzee antis and johnzee fans alike with death threats over a ship for a fictional character. who cares. “zatanna could do better” okay. “john killed her dad” there’s more technicalities there, but okay. “zatanna and john are meant to be” okay. but people cannot be sending death threats; it’s bizarre.

and shooting down one character in said ship in favor of another and that being the justification for the ship is insane to me. i get hating a character, but man. if someone else loves both characters and wants to see them together, then who fucking cares. i’d like to be able to look through zatanna posts and not have people being at each other’s throats about ships.

this goes for all shipping discourse, but i was looking through someone’s account ( who has. lovely zatanna posts. ) and i got really far down, as one does, and just saw some of the asks, and... it kind of sucked to see. no one deserves to see stuff like that because they have a comfort ship, or they disagree with a particular ship.

#zatanna #johnzee #anti-johnzee #? #idk if i should tag it that #ship discourse #people should calm down. #it's not that hard to filter tags to make sure you don't see things you don't want to. #and PLEASE stop sending death threats to one another #ofc this isn't everyone but man it is getting to be a decent handful ruining it for everyone

comics should place characterization first

me: people should stop openingly fantasising about jayroy shippers dying because they don't like roy's post-2011 characterisation, that's fucked up

you, apparently: actually it's fine to do that because sometimes the comics are bad

I say again, comics are an ongoing mediums and writers change. there are always going to be versions of your faves that you hate, and sometimes those are the ones that get carried forward into ongoing canon, and that's just the nature of the medium. it's not about good or bad characterisation, that's just a fact about all ongoing multi-author mediums.

if you can't handle that without wishing death on strangers, comics are not the hobby for you. watch movies, read novels, find fiction that has one author and one creative vision until you develope the emotional maturity to interact with people who like stuff you don't without slinging insults and ill wishing people!

#complaining about comics is the primary hobby of all comics nerds #we all do it all the time #but most of us manage to do it without suibaiting and sending death threats! #(i'm allowing myself one petty moment and it's to point out that arsenal also fucking kills people) #(I'm so sick of people saying roy would never be friends with jason because roy is a sweet good boy and jason is a killer) #(he shoots people with fucking guns! his name is arsenal! he had a fucking gun arm that one time!) #(you don't have to think they'd be friends but please stop pretending there's some kind of violent vigilante moral scale here)

Imma just say something after what happened today.

I understand how fucking frustrating and mentally draining it can be when someone refuses to acknowledge anything that does not support their argument. They will not even show you the basic respect of considering, or even listening to the facts that support your argument, and it’s exhausting af.

I know how fucking hard it is to walk away from situations like those, especially if it affects you directly.

That being said, dragging someone’s mental health into it, threatening them, implying that something bad will happen to them because they disagree with you… that’s terrifying and fucked up. If you stop attacking the argument and start attacking the person, it’s not gonna help you feel any better.

Calling those who disagree with you:

“Severely mentally ill”

“Ret*rded”

“Psychotic”

Saying to people:

“Please fucking kill yourself immediately.”

“Hope you fucking die a painful death :)”

“You will rot in hell for eternity I can’t wait”

“Hope you choke and die on your own vomit”

And the one that irks the fuck outta me:

“You’re going to die soon.”

Shit’s not good y’all. Sometimes you need to walk away. My mind automatically goes to worst case scenario, but what if something happened to the person on the receiving end of “kill yourself” or “you’re gonna die soon”? Whoever sent that could be so fucked.

Today was emotional, regardless of what “side” you were on. Don’t let your emotions get in the way of saying dangerous shit.

#tw abuse #tw rape #love and support to all survivors from a survivor myself #I am a survivor of r*pe #I am a survivor of ab*se #fun fact: read this as if I agree with side A and then read it again as if I agree with side B. Makes sense either way right? ok cool. #notice how I never said if I agreed or disagreed with what happened today? #it’s because I don’t want fucking death threats from anyone lmao #please do not try to draw any conclusions from this about whatever fucking ‘team’ I’m on (we made a defamation case about teams?)😒 #don’t assume I’m on one side just because I’m female #and don’t assume I’m on one side…because I refuse to disclose what ‘side’ I’m on like really? lmao #and all y’all stop sending fucking death threats to anyone you disagree with 😒 #I really didn’t want to say anything about this…but the ‘you’re gonna die soon’ honestly fucked me up I’m still getting chills from it :/ #AH v JD

#guys we fought with our nails and teeth and blood to stop hate and death threats to pur streamer/s #im sorry but it's kinda hypocritical to send them to someone else #do not engage with people you don't like and everything should be fine #im not even a Ranboo fan #everyone just calm down and cool off #this kind of negativity can hurt people #on both ends #Ranboo and their fans are still people and so are Quackity and his fans #so are we #it can hurt both them and us #this probably will be irrelevant to you but please #ok? love you all whoever you are

Honestly I think Tim Drake deserves way more recognition as Robin not only for figuring out Bruce and Dick's indetities at age 9 or for being canonically the best bo staff user in the dcu, but for giving Robin fucking pants. Can you imagine demon spawn Damian running around Gotham with a katana in his hand, murder in his eyes and fucking booty shorts.

Everyone say thank you Tim Drake.

edit: edited again to stop people from sending me death threats and calling me a liar for getting a fact wrong and apologizing for it like four times. Ra's al Ghul has called everyone detective, young detective or similar. Ok. I get it. Please forgive me for this outrageous offense /s

also deleted all the detective-related comments.

syscourse is so annoying cause its always the same thing, with ppl using different definitions for the same terms and then it just never goes anywhere

#meowing #this isnt an invitation to sycourse with me #idk its just something ive noticed at least when theres syscourse between endo and didosdd communities #like for ex literally just the word 'system' #its very different for both sides and when theres syscourse regarding that both sides act as if the other knows their own sides definition #and even when they do know the definition it becomes a useless back and forth of 'no. MY definition is correct' #like please for real stop sending death threats over this useless shit #IDK. !! i hope that one day maybe something good could come out of syscourse like the communities agreeing to separate a bit more from #each other or something but the way it is right now...... no way :/

with twitter imploding, people are talking about how much it'll suck to have celebrities and brands on here, but...I think celebrities can exist on tumblr in a healthy way.

because I've already seen it happen.

I don't know if you guys remember, but there used to be a decent number of celebrities on here! I mean, the white house had an official tumblr! so did my local library for some reason! everyone thought tumblr was the place to be!

we had George Takei, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Hayley Williams, Ariana Grande, Dylan Marron, Dante Basco, Rebecca Sugar, John Green, Hannah Hart, Jacksfilms, Daniel Howell, and Ashens to name a few, as well as brand accounts for Doctor Who, Sherlock, Denny's, and so many others.

(Cole Sprouse was even on here, and it was fine. don't act like it wasn't. it was really not a big deal! it was fine!)

there were plenty of celebrities and brands on tumblr a decade ago - and it worked fine when people knew to stay in their lane!

did Obama's official account give a shit when people posted Obamney slash? absolutely not!

did we pay attention to whatever the brand accounts were posting? we did not!

and so we existed pretty well together on this site - because, after all, we don't have to look at anything we don't want to. we can block people. and they can block us. and we can keep posting what we want, no matter what any celebs or brands have to say about it, just like it's always been.

the only thing I think needs to change is, well...hey...remember how I mentioned John Green and Rebecca Sugar up there?

yeah the reason we don't see them on here anymore isn't because tumblr isn't a place they'd thrive - it's because a bunch of assholes harassed them until they left.

and that's not fucking okay.

so look, if you see celebs/brands on here, follow them, or don't! block them and ignore them, or don't!

but if you send threats and harassment to anyone on here, whether it be a celebrity, brand, or average tumblr user, you are the asshole. full stop. sending threats to other people is never okay. never.

and yes, this goes for the corporate accounts too! those are still run by people!

it's somebody's job to run those accounts, and guess what! that poor, probably-underpaid person doesn't deserve to get sent gore and death threats because their job is running a corporate tumblr account!

just, whatever happens when twitter explodes and dies a horrible death, it's gonna be okay. but please be kind. above everything else, please, I am fucking begging you, be kind.

it's really the most important part of thriving here

#that and knowing when to ignore the discourse #tumblr #personal #this is a bit much #but like #look #I don't really care about celebrities and brands being on here #if they stay out of fandom tags and don't break the fourth wall #(the wall between fandom and creators) #and don't interact with the fic and ships and such #go for it #go nuts show nuts etc #but the same goes for us #we have to be kind #we have to block and ignore instead of sending threats #otherwise we are worse than the brand accounts and I mean that #oh #william shatner #I forgot #he was on here too #and lucy hale #from pretty little liars #she was here #trying to think of other celeb/brand accounts #hmmm #her interactive (rip) had an official tumblr

I do still listen to the penumbra podcast once every two weeks because it's still more or less a fun romp for each individual episode but they've gotten so lecture-y compared to the first two seasons and I literally can't tell whether it's just the creators being like fuck you listen to our lecture or if it's accidental but it's annoying

#and like it undercuts the atmosphere idk what to tell you! #this does not include the recent episode where the moral was just 'please stop sending us death threats' because that was sad
