#you guys see as Free Content

[neon-danger]

Last anon here and you are single handedly keeping Jalex alive for all of us

I know and it’s kind of a lot of pressure

I know you guys aren’t trying to make me feel like I Have To Keep Writing it’s just tough because there’s not a lot of media for me to take in, and when i do find something, I start comparing my own work.

#like im glad you guys like my work #but it’s kind of A Lot #to be The Only Jalex Writer #cuz what I see as Not Good #you guys see as Free Content #and like I totally get just wanting content #but I still want to put good stuff out there you know? #at the end of the day this is supposed to be fun #and nonstressful #and I think somewhere a long the way it started to stress me out #so I’ve been trying to work on Less High Risk Things #but I’ve also just been so tired #and it’s No Money Month #because I work retail 😞 #so I’ve been stressed about genera life and things too #don’t worry y’all I’m not going to stop writing completely #but I think it might be good for me to take An Official Break #I might try to focus on oneshots and other wips for a while #I know y’all are excited for cbth and especially Starcrossed #but if I keep forcing out content #it’s going to fall flat and I’m not going to like the end product #just like with what happened with coffee and Christmas #harley answers #behind the scenes

Why do I always end up posting at completely unreasonable hours? Oh well! Sleep is for the weak <3 The Drew kids have comically large gaps in skill when it comes to artwork. Like Audrey really needs to step up her game <///3 And by popular demand, I have given Bendy his well deserved chocolate. Nothing else happened. No souls were harmed in the process. Trust me bro

Telling content creators it's wrong to explore artistic freedom and be independently funded by fans, and they should instead continue taking advertisement revenue from google* is

NOT

the anti-capitalism stance actually.

*(Yes, google owns youtube.)

#Watcher #This post is specifically and exclusively about the people who seem to have the capitalism bit wrong #It's almost fascinating how no one is hearing themselves speak #I feel like some of you don't understand WHY we support small businesses and are anti-monopoly #I've seen multiple posts saying “Shane is so anti-capitalism there's no way this was his idea.” #So... you think it's pro-capitalism to start your own business instead of relying on pennies from the exploitative mega-corporation? #Guys... we support small businesses KNOWING it will cost the consumer more #Stop thinking you're entitled to someone's product #That's what got us in this mess #I understand $6 is a lot for many many people but that is what makes certain things a luxury #Nothing used to be this way #Nothing used to be “free” so you can be monitored for your viewing habits and sold to advertisers #If you see a little guy trying to leave youtube/google and you paint them as the capitalist??? You. have. taken. a. wrong. turn. #I don't know how many more ways I can say it #It is better to support someone (if you can) than to pressure them into taking money from the trillion-dollar corporation #so that you can have what they put all their blood/sweat/tears into for free #If you want something badly enough you're going to have to pay for it #Them's the breaks #If you don't want it that badly then maybe it didn't mean enough to you personally #Thinking otherwise is how corporations like youtube take over and squeeze out small competitors #btw on monopolies: having almost every single video content creator (outside of tiktoks and video game streams) on youtube is BAD #You understand that's bad yes? #How tf are we going to diversify unless SOME CREATORS leave youtube??? #It's almost the responsibility of larger creators to do so #Ironically what I said is backwards #In its ideal state‚ capitalism is supposed to inspire innovation and new business‚ giving every person a chance to succeed #But I think we all know that's not the reality we're experiencing #I just went with what everyone means when they say it

my favourite genre is characters forced to be in a musical and try to fight it but can’t and are shocked and terrified when they first start singing before succumbing

#teen beach movie #tbm #the guy who didn’t like musicals #tgwdlm #guys i figured out why i have a ride the cyclone obsession #if you look at the guys’ reactions at the start of what the world needs when they get spotlighted #you can see that they aren’t doing this of their own free will #constance and jane (and ofc ocean) are fine with it but they’d low-key go along with oceans song anyway #also in uranium suite/tragic fact from the canada productions #when karnak has the vo #anyway #ride the cyclone #rtc #i love this content and will watch/read all of it #because it’s not *demonic* possession (which i dislike for obvious reasons) #it’s musical possession!!!!!

LU fans stop horribly mischaracterizing BOTW Zelda challenge: literally fucking impossible

#the way i've seen sooo much content of botw zelda or “flora” being like....an asshole or some girl throwing tantrums #i'm scared to hear what you guys think of oot zelda kasjdbakd #then there was that person who like...said botw zelda is arrogant and doesn't give a shit for her people? #hello? #and then theres the people who are like “lol wild is free from her he's glad he doesn't have to watch over her” #HELLO? #i'm sorry i start swinging whenever i see people misinterpret my girl #free my girl from misogyny PLEASE #i need LU fans to learn how to like....be normal about female characters

i feel like i’ve been WAITING for the other shoe to drop wrt people’s opinions about watcher for this very reason. not that i think the reaction is completely not understandable but the greater the parasocial relationship, the greater the fallout as soon as public opinion shifts. you don’t have a relationship with these people they’re just content creators, chill

#ready to see all the people coming out of the woodwork to say how they’ve never liked watcher/unsolved/etc #and act like it’s ‘cringe’ now that their fanbase feels ‘betrayed’ #it’s great to have a fanbase but parasocial relationships will bite you in the ass every single time #it’s interesting too though because i’ve seen watcher have a LOT of support as they’ve tried to build something separate from buzzfeed #so this is the first time they’re getting real pushback about a decision they’ve made wrt shifting their platform/expanding their brand #so ig we’ll have to see how they react moving forward #but it’s soooo interesting to see how enthusiastically people dump on buzzfeed #AND how many people dump on youtube and how over the years so much of its functionality has been stripped away #how many ads you have to sit through. how much sponsored content there is now. etc #but when they try to do the same thing with youtube that they did with buzzfeed it’s like how dare you not lick their boots #because if you lick their boots and we lick their boots we can watch stuff for free #anyway. #even if you don’t any to say it’s a bad business decision. it’s not like there’s not precedent for it #1) the move away from buzzfeed was successful and 2) what about the dnd shows or whatever #don’t you guys watch those dnd shows that are ‘behind a paywall’ #don’t you guys have netflix hulu disney hbo amazon etc ad nauseum that are actually owned by billion dollar corporations #don’t you guys get on your high horses about supporting independent artists all the time #it’s interesting that people will profess to be such big fans!!! and feel like they’re friends!!!! #but how dare they think their work might be worth paying for #idk. idk. it’s entitlement though #sorry for the rant i’m ALSO not trying to blindly defend a bunch of people i don’t know #but you guys are being soooo fucking annoying about it lol #anyway i’m still waiting to see what their response is going to be from here before jumping to conclusions #also to be fair i am biased to be lenient about decisions made by independent filmmakers vs big studios etc #like everybody freaking out about the ai art used in late night with the devil. who cares honestly #‘they should’ve paid a real artist!!’ idk maybe their budget didn’t cover that #i don’t want it to become the industry norm but at the end of the day i would rather see indie shit getting made then only seeing #the big studios (who don’t have equitable practices anyway!!) making shit #but that’s another conversation. just to be transparent about my viewpoint on this kind of thing #maybe controversial but also can’t we have nuance. for once.

going into instagram comments is crazy it’s like seeing into a (much MUCH) worse alternate reality like You ppl live such unfathomably terrible lives to me….

#aside from the general everything they’re just so boring and miserable. Btw #sorry it’s just i’ve had insta on my phone lately (unfortunately i can’t delete it until the party ☹️) & every SINGLE time i see some sort o #reel and i’m like HA yknow what i think? and then everyone in the comments is saying the complete opposite thing #every single time without fail #the other day i saw a reel where a bartender dumped all the leftover stuff from the thing (idk what it’s called) into a cup and every1 in #the comments was like ugh yucky disgusting / yk ppl put even grosser stuff in their mouths like genitals. besides if it’s cleaned regularly #enough it should be fine / that’s a big IF. meanwhile i’m like Yum jungle juice 😋 #also one time i saw ppl talking abt how they sleep in binders at sleepovers COME ON reddit is free transtape exists. please #<- these r like the worst examples ever but it’s ok #also like the insane casual misogyny. it’s so bad out here guys #.txt #ppl arguing in the comments like ‘that’s like 2k calories’ / ‘why r u being negative besides it’s only like 300 at max’ / ‘it’s not #negativity’ GUYS. WHAT THE FUCK. CALORIES ARE GOOD I <3 ENERGY???? YOUR BODY ALSO LOVES ENERGY. COME ON. BUTTER 4 LYFE BITCH #OH AND ONE TIME someone made vanilla extract and the comments were all panicked muslims like oh no im rethinking all my vanilla extract #buying GUYS do you or do you not eat bread. great now figure out the alcohol content of fermented yeast vs a drop of ethanol in a cake (that #is being baked anyway!)

Have you heard about the news with Nicholas Braun?

yup. it was all over twitter and i was so disappointed of him and i hate him for that. i hope everyone who was affected by his disgusting actions, especially those who are brave enough to come out and speak up, are doing better now.

personally though i will still continue watching succession because this is one of my favorite shows for years and i can't let one horrid man ruin that for me. it's going to be a weird couple of weeks and consuming this show wouldn't be as fun as before, especially as someone enjoys making art of greg and tomgreg in extension. but we move

#ask #i'm trying to separate the fictional character greg from the actor nicholas braun because they are not the same person #it's hard bc they share the same face and voice and i couldnt help but get pissed at him sometimes bc it just reminds me of That #but greg isn't nick and i will continue loving cousin greg from succession #and wont be bringing up nick in this blog again #but if you guys are uncomfortable of seeing greg content from my blog feel free to unfollow mute or block me #youre ur own person and i am mine so do what you think is best for you. this is just me and my take on this #nicholas braun #tagging the name for people here who have his name muted and didnt want this topic in their dash

ok!!! tier list templates no one asked for but that i really wanted to make for no reason!!

adults (+some characters of unknown age) tier list!

shadows tier list!

pets (+other animals) tier list!

let me know if i missed any character!

i will make a shipping tier list with all possible pairs (except all possible poly ships cause that would be literally impossible but i will try to add many) but it will take a lot more time! bare with me plz

#fnafhs #fhs #mine #i don't think it needs to be said but just in case #most of these characters have little to no canon content so feel free to use these lists based 100% on your headcanons #speaking of the shipping tier list. what poly ships do you guys have that u want to see in the tier list #i will add all bands as poly ships (including all versions of the toys) and some popular ones (golxyca. toddy x oxy x onnie. etc) #but i wanted to know of some rarepolyships you guys have that i can add #after all i want to make that list to represent all rareships out there 🫡

good lord. any time the fandom picks up any sort of steam we immediately get discourse huh. it always shocks me how demanding and self centered ppl can be about the dumbest shit. if you want something done Your Way you can pick up a pencil and write or draw, guys. the lovely thing about fandom on tumblr is that you can present your ideas to the public and even if not everyone agrees with you it will still probably inspire someone else who thinks similarly. that's like... what happened here in the past few days. go nuts, throw your ideas into the ring. but do it constructively...?

#ada speaks #i'm staying in my vicky and joyce corner u guys are welcome to it #(holding myself back so i look normal) please feel free. please feel free to talk to me about transfem dennis. about victoria von hemen. ab #i don't personally care for cisswaps and resulting content for various reasons but like #im happy to see people having fun #its been a long time since the fandom was this busy #literally like. if u want to add your two cents then do so but #why dont you present alternate designs or ideas instead of criticizing others'

[theorderofthetriad]

personally, i think creators have the right to ask for money for their work, and they're not obligated to give their work to you for free, even if they originally did.

and i think if a platform doesn't work for a creator, they shouldn't have to stay there, especially a platform as famously shitty for creators as youtube.

yeah, not everyone can afford to spare six dollars a month, but also no one is going to die because they can't watch watcher anymore. anyone who wants to watch them that bad w/o the cash to spare will inevitably find ways to access it for free anyways.

so all in all, i'm shocked and disappointed by the response i've seen to the watcher announcement. I thought this was the "don't devalue artists! their work is worth something! you should pay creators for their work!" website, but as soon as it's a popular youtuber not only is their work suddenly not worth paying for, but they're worthy of mockery and vitriol for daring to ask?

like this was literally SUCH a non issue it's sad to see people so up in arms about it AND being completely in the wrong while doing it.

#like. when i saw the title to their announcement my immediate thought was ''Good for them!'' #because youtube is a super shitty platform! it's not a good place to be a creator and so i respect putting in the work to leave! #i have a very strong ''YEAH GIRL DUMP HIS TOXIC ASS'' attitude towards people leaving youtube #so it makes me feel like im in the twilight zone to see people so mad that some creators want to leave youtube #''they're so greedy'' how many of you guys run a video production company? do you AT ALL understand the logistics behind that? #is dropout greedy too? i know y'all LOVE them even though they also have a lot of content behind a paywall #and like. they're greedy for asking for six dollars a month but you're NOT greedy for demanding they give you their work for free? #i'm NOT having an argument about this. if you don't like it i'm not engaging with whatever lack of logic you're using to justify your anger #santagno
