Checked what’s in AO3’s “Everyone/Everyone” tag. Bandom, bandom, and more bandom.

”Welcome to the Toxic Yuri Fight Club”

“No incest or pedophilia”

What do you think “toxic” means? Happy Sugar Life sure ain’t celebrating its protagonist.

I’m not afraid of the term “pro-ship,” even though people treat it as immature, because it’s a natural consequence of what I consider to be mature political thoughts. I don’t want bans on novels or movies, so I don’t want to ban fanfiction either.

I have never forgotten that one idiot who claimed gay people know not to trust you if you like Rocky Horror. It’s not about helping gay people in any way, it’s about stomping on folks who like Rocky Horror.

(See also: “it’s bad to ship Yang/Blake because two people who were traumatized by the same abuser will inevitably retraumatize each other.” It’s not just dumb, it shows how dumb every other ship war is.)

An Arknights thought: Ifrit/adult shipping doesn’t really work, since she’s mentally and emotionally stunted from years as a test subject. Ifrit/child shipping doesn’t really work, since she’s an adult. So she has to be shipped with another adult who has the mental functionality of a child. Ifrit/Ceobe OTP.

“Normal people would be horrified if they knew what you shipped.”

“Normal people would be horrified if they knew you sent gore to people whose ships you don’t like.”

Normal people are still horrified at the idea of Kirk kissing Spock. Don’t trust their opinions on anything.

Why not post everything ELSE that annoys me about pro-ship blogs?

They keep going "if you disagree with me, I'll redefine the word 'anti' to include you." They should already know why this is unconvincing. People regularly tell them "if you disagree with me, I'll redefine the word 'pedo' to include you," and that never convinces them of anything.

"You won't achieve anything by trying to change AO3's terms" is one argument. "Trying to change AO3's terms is immoral" is another argument. They can both be true, but one doesn't automatically prove the other.

Whenever the big blogs post about their ships, they show an incurable case of shit taste.

Found a link to Pinocchio/Gepetto shipping. I don't mean to harsh anyone's buzz, but isn't this just Pygmalion with extra steps?

Broke: shipping Aziraphale and Crowley as gay is nonbinary erasure.

Woke: shipping Aziraphale and Crowley as nonbinary is legitimizing queerbaiting.

Bespoke: Aziraphale and Crowley are Gaiman and Pratchett’s self-inserts. You shouldn’t ship them because that would be RPF.

A response I wrote to a post about how Harry/Draco shipping always downplays Harry’s snark:

I think it’s a consequence of opposites-attract shipping. Draco is the Bad Boy, so he gets to snark. By opposition, Harry becomes the Good Boy, so he can’t snark because snarking is Bad.

See also: Persona 5. Joker is chaotic, flamboyant, leads from the front, and swings between charismatic and hilariously awkward. When he’s shipped with Makoto, fics play up her calm, disciplined chessmaster side, and ignore the parts where she’s also hilariously awkward. (Cop and Robber, one of the better Joker/Makoto fics, plays up both Makoto’s awkwardness and Joker’s refusal to admit when he’s in over his head, so they’re different on the surface and alike underneath.)

I'll never leave I'll never stray

My love for you will never change
But I ain't ready to make up
We'll get around to that
I think I'm right I think you're wrong
I'll probably give in before long
Please don't make me smile
I just wanna be mad for a while
