You've convinced me. How would one get into Mad T Party?

Oh goodness where do I begin!!! LONG POST AHEAD!!!! Ok soooo I have some posts tagged as #mad t fandom lore thanks to @spikrock and @hattersgirlalice for giving me the inspiration to start this whole rabbit hole of nostalgia lol which showcases the basic general info of the mtp band performer's nicknames and noteworthy moments in the fandom (mostly gifs of the band that altered the fandom in some way, and fanart from the captains)

U can watch all the videos of the band performing on YouTube (There's numerous sources but I personally like to watch Nick Turchens playlist another place to find vids of T are just random clips here on Tumblr)

The OG Captains from what I can personally remember were @briannacherrygarcia she was THE ARTIST! she made the majority of the fanart headcanons for the fandom along with Storywhisper who wrote fanfics! (unfortunately they're deactivated and it still makes me sad I wanted to reread all their fics to freshen up on the lore but alas they are lost in the void somewhere as far as I know if anybody has links saved uhhhh help a girl out 👀)

There's many other talented fanfic authors and fan-artists!!! Gifs and Photography were a HUGE part of the fandom! People would make reaction gifs out of any and everything! Alot of shippy moments that were captured by these talented peeps made us all go feral EVERY SINGLE. TIME. BCUZ THEY WERE OUR ONLY REFERENCE FOR CANON CHARACTERIZATION STUFF.

@briannacherrygarcia (she always ate and left no crumbs🔥🔥🔥 absolutely iconic queen💅 a freaking art legend for any Alice in wonderland fan)

@cogitaeworks / @cogitae (they are godtier ohh m y godd fucking gorgeous artworks I swear)

Here is a list of all the blogs I've hunted down here on Tumblr to rummage thru for anything Mad T related, u don't have to follow all of these peeps a good majority of them especially on the lower half are inactive, and lower half is mostly just reblogs from other blogs maybe we can find eachother and form a lil T renaissance I'm just desperate for any MTP crumbs from this ancient ruin of a fandom lost to time

@elrohare is still active, they don't write fics as recently but thier old fics r one of the only main references I still use for MTP fics character arcs and lore so far

@rockingthemadtparty @oldeststoryintheuniverse @madtpartymisadventures @mishydraws @capnhap @artbymaryc @cheshire-kitten @nodamikimischief @fannishflightsoffancy @trekkiebeth @marchmousekits @drinkmebar-blog @tevlek @mgmpluto @allpackedforadventure @its-maddhatterfan @glindyupland @thackery-earwicket @t-party-madness @nemo-in-wonderland @marchmouse @zintk @allpackedforadventure @mrsmarchhare @thatrandomartistjavi @xsunnysoftx @illuminatilovesyou @fandom-hell-ferrylass @writegeist-muse @midnightwriterkay @littleivyfaery-blog @inuitakumi @queerasian-blog @mrchmouse-blog @burrwabbits @thacky-earwicket

(Put an F in the chat for @storywhisper 😢 they're not dead as far as I know but their blog is totally gone from Tumblr and I can't find any of their fics 😭😭😭)

If u wanna get to know more about the performers outside of the band, as in irl, they have social medias on YouTube and TikToks. I'm still a little iffy on sharing the irl identities for new fans cuz the whole character integrity thing at Disney AND ALL THE OG FANS REMEMBER ALL THE DRAMA ABOUT THIS TYPE OF STUFF IYKYK First I would have to get consent from a trusted source who can confirm that they are ok with fans knowing thier identity outside of T. Y'all gotta be respectful this time frfr 😒🙄

And not to toot my own horn but I've made a few MTP fanarts recently tagged in #myart and I'm in the middle of making my own Mad T Party Universe. Taking inspiration from multiple headcanons and performances from the fandom and combining them all together in a multi chapter art/comic thing??? IDK I'm not a writer but imma just post art pieces here and there with lore sprinkled in or something low-key if anybody wants to help me write it I'd totally appreciate it cuz how the hell do authors DO THIS ALL THE TIME 😭😩 y'all are troopers for keeping all these random facts and characters in ur head all the damn time🙃 and the audacity to have it in a linear timeline?? Organization???never heard of her!

Soooo yeaaaaa just look at my tag #mad t fandom lore for the basics, devour all of Briannacherrygarcia's masterpieces, watch the YouTube vids, follow some of the blogs, and maybe follow me as well since I'm rebooting this fandom apparently. Cringe is dead and I'm the grim fucking reaper.

FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY MORE QUESTIONS IF U HAVE ANY! Or if u wanna discuss shippy stuff 💞💞💞

Btw this has absolutely nothing to do with MTP but high-key I LOVE ur url bcuz I'm actually a Neo-Pagan Persephone devotee sooo the whole pomegranate thing is just *chefs kiss* ✨blessed be fellow warlock/witch✨

Mini giant Laios because I can’t be stopped hdkejdhsjs. He ate Chilchuk and Senshi got curious about what he tasted like so he had to ask. Laios isn’t sure, but he knows it was good lmao

The Sensuous Vulcan | Artwork by Gayle F for her story Desert Heat (1977)

Read the full fic HERE. It's a quintessential piece of K/S history (featuring the first ever mention of double ridges... if you know, you know).

this is so random but i would love to hear your opinion on mydramalist as a fellow asian drama lover. because it’s obviously well known as a reliable wiki of sorts in dramaland but i beg to differ. (the only plus i feel being the summary and cast list for info)

i mean, i’ve not seen a single comsec w more than two brain cells as a whole? there’s always complaints about female leads rooted from misogyny, they are never happy about story progression, and i just find so many of them kinda dumb sorry lol. like zero media literacy to be found, insufferable arguments, etc. the star ratings are rly just given to popular dramas w high profile actors too.

and i personally find it disheartening that so many ppl end up referring to mdl when considering dramas because so many gems are then lost and not given appreciation.

anon. anon anon anon if you know the way i sat straight the f*ck up when i saw the notification and then read through this ask bc yes. yes to everything here that is exactly it. almost three fourths of what i've watched this year was either 1. not received well by the general MDL crowd (Moon in the Day. where is the taste brethren to not like MITD and not even for reasons that actually make sense), 2. received well but had a good chunk of people bitching in the comment section, or 3. received well but had the main point of the show (and its relevant characterization) go over their heads. (The Worst of Evil aka TWOE comment section, i am f*cking looking at you. i can count on one hand the number of people who understood what that show was supposed to be about) the one fourth that managed to escape was bc the toxicity did not reach the comment section and everyone was pretty f*cking civil. alas if only it could be like that all of the time

case in point for the ratings example, since we've already briefly tackled the lack of media literacy—j-dramas on MDL are notoriously rated much, much lower than either k- or c-dramas. half of the time that's bc there are less users watching (and rating) them therefore the average is lower but the other half it's bc people simply do not understand good media when they see it. don't get me wrong there's some freaky ass sh*t in the j-drama world that i would not touch with a Grinch level pole but to see MDLers out here talking about how slow j-dramas are and that nothing's happening. have you considered that you are either watching the wrong genre or you shouldn't be watching j-dramas in the first place bc their entire setup and general narrative framing arcs are not your style. have you even thought about that for six seconds or are you too busy expecting it to read like a typical tropey rom-com k-drama with your trending oppas. (no hate on my tropey rom-coms with [most of] said oppas, i need them when i don't want to think i just want to see sh*t on my screen and scream about hot people and the Hand Umbrellas in the Rain and the Back Hold when the male lead catches the female lead before she falls and you have the fifteen second focus on their faces just looking at each other)

and the misogyny. oh God do not get me started on the dichotomy that was the Cult, as we affectionatly called ourselves, on the feeds while THEE sageuk of the year My Dearest was airing (beloved show [that i still need to finish. JangChae i'm sorry ily life hates me like the mf it is 😭], beloved commentary on the feeds. they saw the vision on the feeds) vs the sh*tshow that was the landmine field of the comment section (the takes i saw on Gil Chae, Eun Ae AND Ryang Eum respectively.......... the misogyny wasn't enough we had to add the homophobia into the mix. buy one get one free deal fr fr). you mad man. that sh*t was insane there was a point i banned myself from scrolling farther than the cast section until the show finished airing. i kid you not on average they didn't have even half a braincell. maybe a quarter of a quarter of one. f*cked up just say you are not decent people and go

this is not to say that all of MDL is like this. i have gotten tuned into absolute masterpieces of content (and have tuned others, amen) bc of a comment comparing a show i'm watching to another one or a review being posted in the feeds about a film with less than 500 people interested. i have reconsidered my choice to not watch something after having spirited discussions in private messages discussing the pros and cons of the premise and whether they managed to get it done without f*cking sh*t up. i still contribute semi-regularly by adding relatively unknown actors and crew members to the database so they can get the credit due them. if you know where to look, you can get some good sh*t out of that place. problem is most users who are new to both the site and East/Southeast Asian cinema as a whole don't know where to look, and the cycle continues, and the ratings continue to be skewed/bloated and no one pays attention to the plot, if there even is any to pay attention to.

tl;dr: begging people to not let MDL be the be all end all for their drama recs a la 'well MDL doesn't like it so i won't watch it'. babe we have said MDLers complaining about how the ratings on Viki are too high but in my entire time watching dramas i've found that in the past two to three years the Viki ratings are making more sense than the MDL ones. sit with that for a sec. when you're done branch out and see the world (literally and cinematically), i promise you will be a better person for it

Fuck you theres more

I think it’s my personal reaction to how fandom makes Rhys helpless everywhere and here I made him powerful in the most ridiculous way possible

Struggling to understand why some people care so much about how other random people write characters in fanfiction???

OoOohh noOooOo they made Daemon Targaryen too soft— oh dear god they made Lyle Wainfleet too goofy — Silco is out of character only I write him correctly— how the fuck will we ever recover!!! !! !!! we must demand justice ! !! !!! ! !!!

Srsly praying that whoever’s holding the gun to your head forcing you to read it stops and apologizes, someone should really help you escape the torment

Just let people have different taste and preferences??? Especially if they didn’t ask for your criticism or correction??????? You don’t have to accept someone’s fanon??????????They’re making free content for fun!!!!! Bffr

I have so many ideas lately what is going on?! Btw, thanks for all the love under the melodies <3 (sorry if sound is bad)

Their relationship was far more than complicated. They loved each other, at least Rick loved her. But they didn't work as a team in any way. She was often very angry with him, picking fights. Even when he remained calm and diplomatic, that wasn't good enough for her either. He wasn't the man she wanted and she wasn't the woman he deserved. Nevertheless, her death broke his heart into a million pieces.

drops these doodles i forgot to post of a very niche Disneyland Alice in Wonderland themed band i was obsessed with when i was 13

i was feeling nostalgic and was looking back at photos of them and did some quick studies

Have been semi-rotating Mad Rat Dead recently, not for any particular writing reason, but because we took another look at the one Bug Fables cross it has and the whole situation there is just... really, really funny to us. Imagine being a parasite and fucking up your time-travel-in-a-desperate-attempt-to-survive gambit badly enough that you wind up in a far future where all of your host species are extinct. Where do you even go from there? What are her plans? What is the gambit here? It's a whole Situation it's great

I've been compiling as much information about everything Mad T Party related (for fanfic/fanart/new fan purposes) and I've come to an idea... Should I just make a discord for Mad T Party? Is that something people would like to even join?

You know what I’d also be offended if someone tried to dip me in mayo. He’d go much better with ginger sauce thank you very much

****Now follow me and get in my head for a bit... Also wanted to add. If you follow on youtube (which if you don't what are you waiting for? 😉🤣) and have it so you get notifications you probably have seen it already lol... or you've probably seen it cause another blog has posted it over here (did they give credit? nope, but at least is still our video and our account and not a reupload so I guess that's a win? 🤷🏻‍♀️) I just wanted to make sure what happened last time with the iHeartRadio Darren special also didn't happened with this one which is that as soon as I clicked for the video to go public and posted it here it got blocked 😒 and since there's no other way to test it I made it public for a bit (cause last time was super fast) to see if it did the same but when I saw nothing happened I put it back as unlisted (cause I was scared putting it on private then putting it back on public wouldn't help lol 🙈) so to post later. But my plan to post here and make public on youtube tomorrow after it was not available is now done with since is available/around already, so here I am posting it now as late as I can (but also not THAT late cause I was already wanting to post it and since it's around I'm not going to post super late either lol) But yeah I wanted to wait for the special to be done cause I think one should wait for it to stop playing to post so that more people see it wherever is playing (again I don't know how this metaverse thing works but don't want to hurt the views or whatnot) and then once is not available on those plataforms anymore to make it available for those who didn't see it. So yeah long story made even longer (sorry!!!) If you saw it public previously on youtube or the post over here 😒, that's why. Ok I'm done lol bye.

tee bee aytch i genuinely cringe at ppl who still unironically have “mcyt fans dni” and are condescending about people liking minecraft youtubers . like especially if ur a Grown Ass Adult. their justification is always “well that One guy sucked”- you cant even differentiate between creators from a whole branch of content creation ??? are you stupid on purpose? sorry u cannot handle some guys who play minecraft i fucking guess ????Lol

this just in. i do not freaking care about tr*vis hackett
