Honestly you people need to start thinking about fanfiction like a restaurant.

You do not have to order the salmon if you don't like salmon.

If I order the salmon, I am not forcing you to eat the salmon. Nor are you obligated to order it just because I am.

If we are going with the intention of sharing food, that's okay! I happen to like steak too. I don't need to order the salmon. I'm capable of going to the restaurant and not ordering the salmon. We can order the steak.

There is a whole menu of things you can have. The salmon is just an option. We can even find a restaurant that doesn't serve salmon at all.

Yes, I know some people are allergic to salmon. But I'm not going up to them and force-feeding it to them. The only way my salmon can hurt them is if they come to our table and take the salmon.

The only way you'll expose yourself to my salmon and the unpleasantness of eating it is if I tell you my dish has salmon in it and you insist on having a bite anyway.

You're midway through your meal and realize it has salmon in it? Okay. Lets send it back and order something else. Maybe you didn't see it in the ingredients list. Or maybe the chef didn't put it down.

Its really that simple.

block @myfandomrealitea for. all of this actually im just in disbelief they're saying with their full chest that being able to consume and enjoy incest content is just as important as being able to avoid being triggered by it. 'not what everyone enjoys' genuinely hope this person jumps in a lake

#and then tries to shift blame away from the people doing this PUBLICLY ON THE INTERNET #it's a LOT harder to stumble onto a full episode of game of thrones than it is to run into incest and csa content #every single day on the internet #incest cw #your jackoff content is not 'just as valuable' as survivors' safety oh my GOD #cor.txt

I saw your tags and just wanted to let you know the post was not about shipping discourse. Its just a general PSA; the tags are there simply to be filtered and for genre. You can rest easy :)

Hello,

I am currently conducting a survey based on the MCU and its range/accuracy of LGBT+ representation and the fan opinion/perspective.

The survey is on Google Forms and does not ask for, collect, require or retain any personal information. (No email addresses, locations, names, ect.)

The results of the survey are also public access regardless of participance, so anyone can access the results to use in their own analysis, meta, thesis, posts, ect. (This survey is not for commercial or monetary purposes. I as the creator am not gaining anything bar primary data from this survey.)

The survey can be found here.

It would be awesome if you could participate or share this survey.

Thank you, @myfandomrealitea

OOOH MORE POLLS!!! And it's based on the MCU! Nice!! Thanks for letting me know :3 I'd give the post a reblog, but I don't think there is one? I'll tag this ask post accordingly, at least <3

This is a post that offers more detail on the outing scenario. The story is longer, but it boils down to a group of individuals lead especially by one person who targeted artists uploading certain content and harassed them for weeks, months and in one case, two years.

It culminated in two people confirmed to be doxxed and suspected others having some of their private information (email addressed, general living area, personal social media) doxxed.

Hello!

I am currently hosting a survey that aims to evaluate the accuracy and range of representation across the Marvel Cinematic Universe and to discern the fan/fandom perspective and opinion on it.

The survey is hosted on Google Docs and does not collect, ask for or retain any personal information other than the participant's gender and sexuality. (No names, locations, email addresses, ect.)

All of the survey results will be open access and everyone is welcome to use the results for their own analysis, meta, discussions and posts.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could take a moment to answer or share this survey.

The survey can be found here.

Thank you!

It is actually so fucking insufferable that these days you can't make a statement about something without also having to have a mile-long footnote in which you acknowledge every single possible nuance to it because otherwise the reception will be full of indignant outrage-fuelled arguments and people forcibly expanding what you said to include things that are completely irrelevant to the scope of the original point.

Just a reminder that:

Joey Batey has actively combated scenes, information, plots, details and lore being cut from the show by including it in his songs.

Joey Batey has been the lead songwriter and composer for all of Jaskier's music since the start of the show. That's three whole seasons worth of music so far. That's six years of writing and producing music.

Joey Batey has embodied Jaskier as bisexual since day one, and actively admitted to having to write over 7,000 words across multiple emails (excluding phone calls and in-person meetings) to fight against the choices the writers and runners were proposing for the 'reveal' scene(s) and future scenes.

Joey was one of the first people during the video interviews to praise Henry after the DeuxMoi smear campaign and has displayed nothing but respectful support for him amidst the chaos. He also did his best to imply that Henry hadn't been fired, despite the active rumors otherwise and the blanket ban on addressing actual details.

Joey filmed the Rience torture scene for over twelve consecutive hours despite being in pain and feeling nauseated and experiencing significant mental distress and being in freezing cold temperatures, outside, in the middle of winter.

Has, without fail, always supported his female co-stars and had nothing but good things to say about them. Has never sexualised them once or behaved inappropriately, and always ensures they get equal press coverage when doing group or duo events.

Read the books, played the games and asked Henry to help him prepare for and portray Jaskier as an accurate representation of Dandelion and Dandelion's personality and characteristics despite the show's shoddy writing.

People who act like proshippers can't or don't have any icks are so funny to me because its like no, we do, we're just normal about it.

If you are going to post praise or support for Jaskier's confirmed sexuality, please do not dedicate it to The Witcher or the showrunners and writers. Dedicate it to Joey. Joey is the one who fought from day one for the show to honor Jaskier's sexuality. Joey is the one who spent weeks arguing with the writers and show runners to make the scenes accurate, engaging, respectful and honest. Joey is the one who said if you're going to use this as a lifeline, you're at least going to do it right.

People do not owe you constant justifications of their media consumption.

People do not owe you constant disclaimers about their media consumption.

People do not owe you constant defence of their media consumption.

People do not owe you constant moral flag signalling about their media consumption.

People do not owe you constantly having to explain how or why they're consuming specific media.

People are not obligated to jump hoops in order for you to validate what they consume in media. You are not a dictatorship on who can consume or enjoy media and how. Nobody has to constantly 'prove' they're consuming media in a 'right' or 'healthy' way.

Someone enjoying or consuming X type of media does not come with the inherent obligation of being expected to perform virtue signalling and grovelling to prove they're not a bad person for it.

Nobody is obligated to defend, validate, police or justify their media consumption.

Antis who proudly proclaim they're going to become a therapist so they can shut down and manipulate and unethically target all the 'nasty proshippers' make me laugh because they're going to get two months into any sort of qualifying course and be slapped in the face by the reality that therapists are obligated to remain objective and impartial and will lose their license if they're found to be using their position to be unfairly bias or negatively target clients based on their own personal beliefs and values.

"Objectivity helps counsellors avoid personal biases and allows them to focus on the client's needs without imposing their own beliefs or values." - American Counselling Association

"Therapy should feel like an inclusive and safe place for clients. Clients need to feel safe and supported in their work. And while all therapists have inherent biases and personal preferences, it is never appropriate for them to engage in discrimination, racism, sexism, or other forms of prejudice with clients." - Medcircle

You do not get into therapy to correct people. You get into therapy to help them. Therapy is not about the therapist.
