So I clicked the Tom Sturridge tag and got this...

Excellent work Dreamling fans. Well done.

Even better that I just noticed that this is from the "My hands are cold." alternative lines set by @mimisempai

Solid gold. 600 years/10. No notes.

Hi hi! Thanks for the follows. :) I don’t know if you’re on Discord but over on the Gathering of the Gargoyles server (https://discord.gg/eENwA6aGGw) we’ve been sharing you guys’ art and awaiting Goliath underwear pics!

We were not on Discord, but for the Gathering of the Gargoyle, y'know, just to check... now we are XD

We just signed in and... wow, other Gargoyles fans! And we see that it's true, people is sharing our art (you too!) and giving direct links! Yay! All credited! And we're seeing so many new Gargoyles fanarts, just... thank you for telling us.

(And Goliath underwear pics will come soon, we just need a pinch of free time!)

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

Abdirak torture is so hard for me I really feel bad about it I’m too much of a softie 😂

Honestly so very fair, it's not for everyone~ There's enough content and types of content for everyone to find what they love, that's what is so utterly wonderful about the creative community in the fandom. As long as everyone remembers to be kind, to allow everyone their likes and dislikes, and to enjoy what they want in their own ways~ We have such great capacity for imagination, acceptance, and love for the game content and all the content beyond. I believe in our ability to use that and enjoy it responsibly, respecting each others feelings and preferences~

"Link, you must find me"

!! Spoiler version under cut !!

The Dragon's Tears

people are really looking at stats to determine if a fic is worth reading? no wonder fics that never got popular at the first drop never had a chance 💀

Hi folks. There seems to be a lot of confusion about what we as fans can and can't do with the striking happening. So I made a flowchart.

Let me make this SUPER DUPER EXTRA CLEAR. Unless an AMPTP studio reaches out and says "We would like to give you X (money/swag/whatever) to create content for us" (that would include writing or acting in anyway on your part) you will NOT be crossing a picket line.

Cosplay, fanart, fanfic, going feral, sharing marketing posts, watching your favorite show, getting your friends to watch your favorite show, etc does not count.

It is ONLY scabbing if you are getting REIMBURSED by the STUDIO.

Please take this flowchart, repost it, spread it everywhere!

The studios benefit from us being confused. The studios benefit from us not promoting and not watching and cancelling our subscriptions. The unions, the actors, the writers, they all benefit from us promoting in their absence, they get paid when we watch the shows, we bolster their argument when we boost the shows numbers. If we make the media popular and successful the studios have to meet the writers and actors at the table, and the writers and actors will be in the position of power.

i vote that next year instead of reading Dracula we do a Jeeves & Wooster Book Club. those two never got the rabid tumblr shipping fandom they deserved (disqualified for the sheer technicality of being published a century too soon). we must correct this injustice

neil josten the man that you are

One thing i've run up against when dealing with fandom and characters making less than ideal choices is that people seem to treat a character's decision being sympathetic, the decision being understandable, the decision being reasonable, and it being objectively the best solution for the situation, as synonymous. When those are 4 very different things.

Get yourself a bro that can... do whatever Shadow was doing in the new Sonic Prime episode

sad: falling out of a hyperfixation

tragic: watching your beloved friends and mutuals fall out of the hyperfixation while you're still in it

this mental image wouldn't leave me until i drew it so here you guys go

i wish all fandom wikis a very migrate to miraheze or go fully independent

edit: i am getting way too many "what's wrong with fandom? 🥺" comments to respond to them all-- presumably mostly from people seeing this post without the reblog comments-- so please read this before asking that.

basically fandom/wikia is a corporation that hosts wikis bloated with intrusive ads, and they are actively hostile to both their users and to independent wikis (to the point of banning wiki admins for attempting to migrate to another platform & buying up specific domains so they can't be used). their use of SEO techniques means their wikis will usually show up as the top result in google searches, even above objectively superior wikis. they recently bought out Gamespot, GameFAQs, Giant Bomb, Metacritic, and others, and they will sometimes attempt to buy out independent wikis (like Bulbapedia)
