I'm so tired of how much of the tumblr experience is just people I don't know reblogging my happy little fandom posts with "well, actually—" and sometimes I do just snap and actually respond to them. This isn't constructive but, your honour, I'm being provoked.

Sometimes they even make interesting points, and I still have to block them because they think this is a constructive way to talk to strangers about their fanfic ideas.

But half the time, they're not even right. They're confidently wrong and they're correcting me on a post about what would make a fun fanfic.

Listen. I am presenting a fic idea. It is the realm of make believe. I am playing a happy little game of pretend. That's why I introduce these posts with "there should be a fic where," or "the world needs more fics where..." I am signifying to you, my peers in this social activity, that this is a creative exercise and we are playing.

If you join in by telling me I am playing wrong, and actually the idea I presented is bad, you are being rude. Go make your own post with your own better ideas.

You engage constructively with posts like this by saying "yes, and," rather than "well, actually."

#tozette.txt #you CAN kill the hollow knight and then fight the pure vessel in godhome on the same file. that's canon.#the lore makes that internally consistent because it considers godhome pv and absrad different entities to their waking world counterparts #but these are tag complaints because there are many versions of canon and it's honestly not even the point #the point is #why are people incapable of engaging in a fun and constructive way??????#the other day someone pointed out in my notes that the pure vessel and absrad aren't linked to the thk/radiance fight #which I didn't know #but they were talking about how they wanted a dreamers wake up ending for canon and engaging constructively with my post! so SOME people ca #you can provide new information without just being rude holy shit #stop it stop it stop it #bites you bites you bites you
