#so I'll just tag this appropriately and hope to god you have these tags blocked

[heich0e]

if you've sent in an ask lately that i didn't respond to, it may be answered under the cut! i'll be dividing these posts up by general subject matter so no one has to scroll for too long to find any asks they may have sent. feel free to block the tag #liv got mail if you don't like seeing posts like this. i'm sorry to have kept you waiting, and p.s. i love you very much <3

part three: loire edition ✉ (this is just one long ask from sweet @loirelbay that i can't bear to ever lose by responding to it privately, please forgive me.)

Loire i truly honestly whole heartedly have no god damn clue how to respond to a message as deeply, ineffably kind as this one. i'm not kidding when i tell you that reading this made me weepy, and filled me not only with such an unbelievable feeling of reassurance but also gratitude. grateful to know you, grateful to have you here, grateful to love you. the internet can be miserable and intolerant and unkind and these words stand as such a testament to the fact that even in spite of that there are nice things and good people and kindness out there.

god i don't even know how to dissect this in an appropriate or commensurate way, or if even at the best of times i would be able to do it, but please know that i will never ever ever ever EVER forget this ask and how incredibly lovely you are.

thank you, loire. it was so so nice to hear from you, and i hope you know how much i truly adore you <3

Hiiyyyyaaa!!

I'm here to pick your brain on the salty ask list. 9, 11, 13, 20, 22 and 27.

I am so so so sorry it took me so long to answer this lmao, but I am here and I am salty af so lets dive in

9. Most disliked character(s)? Why?

Let's see Damon, Hayley Camille, Stefan, Davina, Kol [only TO or like post-Davina Kol] uhh let's see HOPE, OHMYGOD ELENA, how did I miss that, ok this list is way too long mostly just everybody except Tvd!Klaus, pre-5x11!Caroline, Bonnie in literally ALL seasons I loved her and wanted to protect her but hated the writers each season, ENZO I LOVE, Rebekah but depends, and KATERINA PETROVA IS MY BITCH AND OHMYGOD SILAS CAN GET IT and now I realize this was NOT the point of the question SO yeah, the characters uptop are the ones I thoroughly dislike, and as to why let's see;

Damon can die bc he's literally everything wrong and dirty and pervy in this world concentrated into one loathsome fucking disgusting cockroach fucknugget being and I hope someone skins his cock thanks. Hayley and Camille and Davina bc they are literally the most GRATING characters ever written in the tvdverse and thats saying a LOT bc there are so many subpar annoying characters but these three take the crown on that, Stefan bc he, in the lovely fucking DOPE @kirythestitchwitch's words, is the human form of dry wall paste, and look ma'am me and my libido are just not here for it, and also bc steroline makes me wanna scream bloody murder and then commit it, so yk I HATE HIM :)

and Kol bc god fucking damn, I hate Kol's characterization in TO with a passion so strong I could probably switch places with Atlas and hold up the sky with the sheer *force* of my hate, mostly bc he was this wildcard who nobody could pin down into ANY box and he's just CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY and like he's perfect OK LIKE HE'S PSYCHOTIC AND FUNNY AND EVIL AND PSYCHOTIC AND FUNNY AND JUST CRAZY and then they made him into a Disney Prince and I'm just like fuck you @ the writers for fucking up my boner, so yeah :))))))

Hope simply bc the bitch exists like I have not examined her character close enough to form an actual opinion and I dont want to either, but I hate her bc she exists.

I ship Elena w non-existence thanks 🌼🌈💖🤝🏾 [ and I realize this is not a reason but :)) whatcha gonna do anon force me to say one??? cuz lemme tell you there are plentyyy but I just got lazy by the time I got to the end of the list lmao]

11. Is there an unpopular character you like that the fandom doesn’t? Why?

I actually don't think I have that sort of character in my non-hit list.......hmm weird, I seem to hate dislike all popularly disliked characters, although I do LOVE LOVE LOVE Silas, but like I havent seen that many *opinions* on him to know if he's a popular or an unpopular character.

13. Unpopular opinion about XXX character?

Caroline is actually very very hypocritical herself, but I actually like that bc it grounds me to her as a character bc she also has her flaws and a lot of them are pretty upfront, and she faces the consequences of these flaws quite often so like even when she has these flaws, it actually just endears her to me, bc it makes her so *real* in my eyes yk

20. What is the purest ship in the fandom?

Josh and Aiden?? Bonnie and Enzo I think?? idk I dont actually care about pure ships lmao like sure theyre cute and all but I cant get invested in one yk, nothing much to invest in when it's already all perfect and *pure*

22.Popular character you hate?

Hmmm......this is not *hate* at all but I just don't? see the appeal of Kai, like I just don't ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

27. Least shippable character?

Damon, TO!Klaus, Stefan, Elena too? and if you mean least shippable OTP literally every ship other than Klaroline and Kennnettzo is unshippable to me bc if it were, best believe I'd be shipping it.

this is the ask game

Top 5 (or 10) tags you’re glad you’ve blocked?

i love this. i have so many things blocked. not actually any tags but words blacklisted, so i'll go with that.

ofmd / our flag means death - i blacklist a lot of media/fandoms but i point out this one specifically because i learned about its existence and decided i needed to block it within the space of like, an hour of each other. i already have a really low tolerance for hype, i just really can't handle how everywhere it is right now. glad you guys are having fun with the pirates and stuff but i can't.

fuck(ed) your mom - speaking of things i have a low tolerance for, it's jokes where the punchline is "i had sex with your (property) woman" and boy does tumblr love these fuckin jokes. so i've got a few variations on this blocked. get a better sense of humor you dummies.

l*ca m*rinelli / n*cky - yeah sorry l*ca. abstractly i'm fine with him, and i have no problem with him as an actor in a movie i love. but fandom's obsession with him and everything about him has gotten to me. all other things get warped around him and it's just exhausting. when i came into the fandom (sorry i sound like such an old fart when i start in on this i know) i would see people complaining about people talking about booker too much but what i saw then was never as bad as how people talk about n*cky/l*ca now. so much so that i just decided to censor this because tumblr search can be sneaky, hah.

girlboss - it's not as bad as it used to be but this phrase was every goddamn where on this site a short while ago and oh my god stop using it, stop quoting that eric andre bit, stop all of this, godddddd. have critiques about capitalism and corporations coopting feminism that don't amount to 'when women do things it's problematic'

we're fucked / we are fucked / we're screwed / we are screwed - i got tired of the doomerism around the last US presidential election so i went on an aggressive blacklisting of various repetitive phrases and my experience of the site vastly improved. and it's still appropriate because people are still obsessively and performatively pessimistic and i can't handle it. this isn't me being a naive pollyanna, this is me trying to preserve what little mental health i have left. i can't live in this world with zero hope.

there's a lot more but some of them i just don't feel like getting into, mainly all the stuff i've had to block because this site is weird about veganism. but this is an adequate selection i think.

thank you 🖤
