Everyone here Please Read this + housekeeping
Heya folks im ded tired anyways!!!!! the RULES tab at the top is a Thing That Exists pls pls read the thing (and the link, this is the post ive thrown up in my Rules section. its lengthy but an very real example of what tumblr fandoms festered. discussion of noncon, rape, pedophilia, harassment privacy violation and bullying )
tumblr fandom is toxic af if you dont enjoy fandom the "right way" and leads to shit like the steven universe's zamii incident (google it if u dont know abt it) and im trying to escape that kinda environment.
after an incident on tumblr with someone ive now blocked, fandom isnt a friendly environment with the unspoken code of privacy & respect as it should be, but im trying to regain some of that space. i WANT to believe that everyone here wont....be like those people but i have no way of knowing unless i confront everyone about it outright (and tbh, im still terrified, that someone whom ive let access into here will see this& then decide im human scum &start shit)
im going to link some lengthy essays in defense of darkfic & Morally Unacceptable fanworks. they are LONG but they are incredibly written. i hope you'll take the time to read them, no matter what your stance is. obviously the triggers apply from the post above.

anyways the 1st post also has some great links to other posts that are well worth reading.
if you're vehemently against whats said in the above essays and now think im trash, let me know in the comments below, so i can ensure our paths dont cross again (all i can hope for as i post this is that there's no one here who thinks im "problematic" enough to start a witch hunt)
sorry for the heavy material we'll get back to fandom shit soon. (also the fact that this site has actual comments box makes it harder for me to shitpost but I Gotta...its so hard... to resist....)
(also i have my obligatory in defense of Batman V Superman post drafted, a stevetony civil warrior au i wanna try and scribble some art for to go along with my hc story for it, and a list of stvetony aus ive thought of over the yrs)




This was very informative! I liked it, and it really shows how toxic fandom and Tumblr are as a whole. It's like if you aren't walking on egg shells on that website then you are labelled a horrible person. Of course there is nothing wrong with calling out ACTUAL racists. ACTUAL sexist etc, but people have become so obsessed with call out culture that they can't tell the difference anymore and bully innocent people out of places and fandoms they use for safe spaces from the real world.
I hope here we can all be amazingly happy and not have to worry about people getting so upset because how dare you draw Tony Stark with darker skin like the literal Italian man he is!
Of course if this comment was too much, I apologize and you are allowed to delete it as you feel needed! <3 I don't wanna cause anymore stress for you friend c:
No worries i agree with u! Mob mentality on txmblr is very scary & ppl love to publically drag & harass fellow fans with extreme prejudice as if it'll make some sort of positive difference in the real world and its honestly very scary to see what that site&fandom overalls become
