Hey if you’re a R/ylo then don’t touch reyynas’ beautiful edits. She said she doesn’t want R/ylos near her posts, which you would know if you checked. I s2g y’all are all over this fandom like rats it’s fucking annoying

Hey nonny!

Makes me want to go reblog a bunch of edits out of spite TBH. Come on, it’s 2018, who still thinks like this?

Isn’t anon worried that interacting with reylos is going to give them bad shipper cooties? I hear you can still get them even if you get your cooties shot. 

But hey, if artists don’t want their work shared and enjoyed by more people it’s no skin off my nose. Most of my followers don’t ship reylo and reblog more of my non reylo star wars stuff but I’m sure that’s completely negated because I’m super icky.

Read your tags – people seriously think the autistic!Jack headcanon is problematic?! I s2g that word gets thrown around so much (‘problematic’) it’s lost all meaning.

Yup. There was one post the OP responded to that was incredibly long and “I know what I’m talking about, I work with autistic people” about how it was “spreading stereotypes” and “generalizing” and “problematic”. Which… if you read the post, you’d know OP themselves was autistic and was basing a lot of their headcanon off their own symptoms and relating to Jack in that way. But you know… that’s problematic, I guess. 

This is slightly tangential, but I’m honestly starting to get really irritated with how creators are and aren’t allowed to portray neuroatypical and/or mentally ill people in their own creations. Like, yes, I understand that we don’t want to make out like it’s always a bad thing or a burden or w/e but a) that gif set wasn’t even doing that and b) it isn’t always peaches and cream. Not everything is a stereotype when it comes to mental struggles, sometimes it’s just a common symptom. And sometimes people who struggle with it do feel like their symptoms are a pain in the ass and prevent them from doing what they want, and they should be allowed to express that, too, without being blamed for demonizing themselves. There is a difference between portraying things in a negative light and blaming the neurodivergence and showing a less than sunny side of the neurodivergence without blaming anyone or anything for the behavior. 

But that’s the end of that little rant. Basically, I’m tired of seeing anything and everything being turned into a giant fucking problem even when it’s ovbious that was never the intent. 

“Why didn’t [actor I personally find attractive] play this character instead of the ugly [actor I don’t find attractive]?”

To spite you, personally, random blogger. It is 100% about you. The casting department did it because they hate you.

friendly reminder that the ao3 comments section isn’t the place for fandom discourse

friendlier reminder that telling a writer they’re disgusting or you hope they get arrested because of what they’ve written isn’t an appropriate reaction and only makes you look bad

friendliest reminder that the back button exists and you could do everyone a favor and not say anything

Kay but there’s straight up child porn on ao3 so maybe f you can’t handle being called disgusting stop writing and publishing child porn

Like the first post on your blog is an incest ship so mayhaps you deserve all of the hate you get 🤔 just my personal onion tho

So what? It’s fiction. The characters I love literally don’t exist. Meanwhile antis harass REAL people with REAL feelings. It’s weird as hell, and, quite frankly, disturbing.

There are plenty of things that squick me out on ao3. But I behave in a mature manner and, you know, don’t read those topics. I also don’t wish bad on the writers who touch on things I’m not into. I don’t harass them, no matter how squicked or triggered I get. Because it’s the decent thing to do. I am in charge of my own consumption of fanfic. I can’t expect writers to hold my hand and take care of me. It’s up to me to take care of myself. Antis don’t seem to grasp these concepts and that’s unfortunate for them and everyone else.

And wow. You think people deserve harassment over fiction? That’s pretty sad. Seek professional help! 🙂

You’re getting off to incest you don’t have a moral high ground to stand on

Excuse me, but what the fuck? What the fuck is your problem dude? You and I both know there isn’t any child pornography on ao3. There is fiction of *fictional characters* on ao3 and some of them are underage, yes, but no real children are being harmed to create it. None of the stuff on ao3 is real. It’s all fictional. You don’t have to like it but it’s not real. Take solace in that fact. No one real person is suffering so like… maybe get over yourself? Moralizing isn’t gonna help anyone, bucko. 

Your own person feelings about a tv show or fictional incest or icky fiction aside, why do you think it’s okay to be mean to real people? Why do you think a person deserves hate because they like fictional things you don’t? Does being a bully on the internet make you feel like you’re accomplishing something? Because the only thing you accomplish is looking like a jackass. 

“Maybe you deserve it” what the hell kind of harassment apologism is that? I don’t even have the words to explain to you how wrong and screwed up that is. Good god, it’s so victim blame-y. Your personal opinion is bullshit. No one, and I mean NO ONE deserves harassment. Really, I wish you would think about the implication of what you’re saying and why it’s so messed up. “Someone who hasn’t broken any laws or hurt any real person did something I don’t like so they deserve to be treated like garbage” is what you’re saying. Like… how is that morally superior at all? How is that doing anyone any good? That causes real harm to a real person who you can talk to and interact with. In what universe is it justified to hurt a real person over fictional content? How can that possibly be a good thing? 

You and I both know it’s morally wrong to hurt a real person or to excuse the harm that comes to a real person just because you don’t like the kind of fiction they like, so maybe take a good long look at what you’re doing and why you’re doing it and re-evaluate. Don’t be so callous towards other people.

Self-insert shippers are valid

There, I said it. I’ve been seeing multiple people invalidate other’s opinions by accusing them of being self-insert shippers as if it were a badge of shame and it’s a frequent subject of mockery even in the reylo fandom. I don’t care if the people being mocked are antis or reylos either. I’ve been through way too much when it comes to bullying to be silent about this.

It’s especially infuriating because that’s such a common accusation for gatekeeping misogynistic fanboys to use. It’s clear to me now though that the reason most people take offense to the self-shipper accusation is not because it’s sexist to assume that “the poor little wimmins can’t help but let her fantasies and desires for a male character cloud her judgment. “ No, they’re upset because they agree with the fanboys about self-shippers deserving mockery and being unable to contribute to meaningful discussion. They shouldn’t be lumped in with those women because, unlike them, they fandom correctly.

I don’t even write fan fiction much less self-ship but y’all are making me want to write Kylo/reader fic purely out of spite because at least I would be doing something constructive with my anger.

Man, whatever happened to fandom being about everyone having fun in their own ways. For some folks that’s speculating about the future films and for others that’s writing fic or making art. I dont get why we have to be so mean to each other over such small things. We’re all a little odd here. It’s 100% fine to write self-inserts or silly AUs or crack fic or whatever. Last I checked, being strange and unapologetic about our fantasies and love of fictional characters wasn’t what was killing fandom, it was what made it great in the first place. What hurts fandom is, as esperanza said, the separation and mockery of “the people who don’t know how to fandom right”. No one here is better than anyone else. We’re all Star Wars nerds. Mocking a certain kind of shipper doesn’t make you smart or cool, it makes you an asshole.

unforth-ninawaters replied to your post “If getting into a fandom with much, much more drama has taught me…”

honestly even at the time I thought it was so insanely juvenile and…obvious…

..this is me realizing we’re not even talking about the same incidence of this in the SPN fandom, that it’s happened more than once, and it is STILL insanely juvenile and obvious.

This has happened more than once? Good grief. Very juvenile. 

dreamsfromthebunker replied to your post “If getting into a fandom with much, much more drama has taught me…”

I know what you’re talking about, and when I saw the post I was like…. Who?

lol. Right? I was like… okay and this is relevant how? It’s so funny to me because like, they didn’t even do anything. They got a bunch of followers but were still completely irrelevant. Like, idk, I’d think if you were committed to pulling the long con you’d try to make friends with people, maybe create some content, actually try to stir shit instead of…. acting like a normal blogger who enjoys what they’re engaging in? Is this some next level trolling I’m too dense to understand? 

“Muahahahaha! I joined in on group discussions and reblogged gif sets of things people like! Look at me trolling those icky shippers by engaging in ship content in a polite and respectful way! I got you! I tricked you all! I win!” 

Congrats, you really… proved… something??? 

If getting into a fandom with much, much more drama has taught me anything it’s that SPN antis are genuinely the most hilarious, impotent bags of wind I have ever seen. 

No, seriously. That fake blog incident is the equivalent of going to a big party and 12 minutes in someone in the far corner of the room rips off their fake mustache shouting “ha-ha! It’s me! I’m An Impostor! I fooled all of you!” while everyone else is barely giving them the side eye long enough to pause their own conversations. 

Baby cakes, get some better material. 

Wait, who’s doing the Nazi song and dance now?

I’m going to leave the Kylo stuff alone, because other people have addressed it who are more invested in his story, but … 

That’s a weird as hell take for her to have on Darth Vader,  considering that her Ahsoka book was full of humanizing takes on Anakin right and left. 

I mean… every other page was Ahsoka, Anakin’s former Padawan, going on about much she missed him and had loved him. 

I’m so confused. If humanizing bad dudes in space wizard fairytales is bad to the extent that you are FURTHERING THE SPREAD OF FASCISM BY SUPPORTING NAZIS … then what the actual fuck was going on in the Ahsoka book, to be honest.

Also. I’m just going to say.

Look. If you have a problem with people writing “fun” stories that humanize Darth Vader, then I judge you for continually making money for writing books set in the goddamn Star Wars universe. Because all arguments about Kylo Ren aside, humanizing Darth Vader has been the goal since day one. 

It’s  hypocripsy at best and faux performative outrage at worst.
