People when baxters character isnt black and white

one single hot take from me before i go rewatch the reunion scene ten times and then go tf to bed.

we have a show full of queer people. every single person we encounter with the exception of the british probably is QUEER. ALL OF THEM. let that fucking sink in for a second.

and the queerness is so multi faceted and well done and reflects the realities of so many people watching it.

so if you sit down after this finale and type a post that in any shape or form calls izzy's death homophobic, "bury your gays", or anything in that direction? i need you to go outside for real. i need you to fucking log off and look at the news. maybe look at some nice queer media statistics from 2014-2016. maybe turn on the fucking tv and scroll through the programs and THEN you can come back and tell me how many queer people you saw. how many shows that are unashamedly about queerness.

yeah that's what i fucking thought you absolute twat.

if you are harassing creators over their writing choices when they are out there risking their careers to create queer media you are a vile person and i want nothing to do with you.

besties i hate to break it to you but izzy has literally Not Changed That Much compared to s1 like sure he's moved on and is learning to not repress his shit as much but his personality is exactly the same. we're talking about the "daddy... daddy..." freak. the creature who hate-flirted with stede in s1 with "plumb the depths *slutty curtain touch*". Like if you couldn't stand him in s1 and now think he's ok only because he's a "completely different person" maybe what happened is that your reaction to him was too visceral and people who seem cunts sometimes are people with shit going on (in his case his husband was cheating on him while he tried to take care of the household ok) that deserve some grace

actually, i'm gonna say it;

i'll never forgive the TSP fandom for taking the valid critique of " hey isn't it just a little weird that this character without a form is most often depicted as a conventionally attractive skinny guy "

& turned it into " guys let's not police anybody's designs here that's not cool, everyone's design is valid "

nobody ( competent ) said you HAD to change your designs or that they were bad, they just asked you to consider a very glaringly obvious trope IN the pool of designs, but you had almost everyone bastardizing that message as " policing "

guys, all that was being pointed out was that " conventional attractiveness " seemed / seems to be the norm for a character that doesn't even have a physical description, much less anything that alludes TO him being attractive beyond personal tastes.

we were just asking you to think about that.

"I wouldn't trust Billy fans/harringrove fans around my drink" Dawg you are in the same circles of people who have sent the following and this is a GENERALISATION OF A LIST:

1. Death threats

2. Harassment

3. Harassment and racism towards BIPOC especially Black Billy fans.

4. Doxxing

5. Sending gore to Billy fans

6. Sending LYNCHING photos to black Billy fans (thanks for that one BTW, got a few myself on twitter)

7. Talked explicitly and IN DETAIL about black fans getting hate crimed by billy

as someone who doesn't even personally use audiobooks, i will die on the hill that they count as real reading. and i'm willing to kill on this hill too

I sure am tired of people equating a character "loving food while being fat" to fatphobia

Like I'm sorry is eating bad now? Is being fat because I love food a bad thing now? Is loving food a negative trait now is that what we're going with like????

Why not advocate for skinny characters loving food more instead

Or a better idea, and this may shock some folks: maybe let fat characters love food and just stop writing it like it's something to be ashamed of or letting skinny characters bully them for it because THAT'S the problem, not fat characters liking food.

Why do fat people have to sanitize their fatness for you?

Some of you new Outlast fans need to get tf off ya’lls high horses

You’re not better than anyone in this fandom and you shouldn’t be here if you’re gonna get so fucking offended over someone’s favorite character

if that person isn’t doing anything harmful or defending that characters actions then it doesn’t fucking matter

cool story - still continued to repeatedly harass folks in the fandom, be an edgelord, throw tantrums in ppl's inboxes, feti$h mine, fish for free fanwork, and just generally be annoying & insistent abt personal headcanons and k1nks

Times like these (my entire twitter timeline comprised of Izzy Enjoyers being the only ones to talk about how fucked up it is that one of them got fucking doxxed, for the heinous crime of *checks notes* 'liking the fictional character Izzy Hands') I remember why I:

1. Only ever really lurk on twitter anymore and

2. Don't trust anyone in the fandom who hates Izzy.

By all means, you don't like Izzy? That's fine. But if you actively hate him, especially if you're vocal about it? I don't fucking trust you.

Fucking. Do better.

You are definitely valid on not liking a villain and finding them personally uncomfortable.

What isn't valid is harassing and sending death threats to people who like said villain or creates content regarding them.

That's where you need to chill the fuck out.

i was never a person to the FE fandom i was a content machine and when i failed to appropriately Generate Desired Content they would turn on me and i think that might've fucked me up a tad

anti r.eylo on my dash in the year of our lord 2024? god. get over yourselves this is ridiculous

Those fans telling people to 'touch grass' and 'you're toxic' for telling them that booking a hotel where you know Joe Keery is at and basically tracking his movements so you can meet him and act like it was "a coincidence" are truly the most stupidest people on the planet. And the ones out of touch with reality.

You're confused as to why he's never at events or cons? Because yall treat him like THIS, you treat him like a fucking doll instead of a person. Goddamn.

Shoutout to that one person who said that "no wonder I'm being stalked" because one of my crimes was apparently (checks list) posting "wooby asgore art" in the asgore tag because that's definitely a normal thing to say to someone being harassed over pixels
