Also yeah even broadening definition of “politics” Idon’t think this is true? Anymore?
There was a time when this was true but there was like. A whole announcement about it a few months ago saying “no more of that please” and shit. Either your perception hasn’t updated since then or I’m missing something
No I just backread and it just seems like my perception of time is completely destroyed
I swear the discussion about wired & wireless headphones was only like 2 days ago
The most political of topics…
If you use [wired|wireless] headphones just unfollow me the fuck right now because you clearly don’t care about the safety and health of our community and you’re politically reprehensible and morally irredeemable
disclaimer I didn’t run this by the other mods so they might disagree
politics:
- “hi everyone, Congress is debating a new law that would impose a lot of restrictions on internet forums (like FoL!!!), please call your congressperson and tell them to vote no!”
- “why is AOC even popular?? she’s LITERALLY a shill for sunscreen companies :/ like she calls herself a socialist and then does that…”
- “god I fucking hate how every time I go on Tumblr half my dashboard is filled with NIMBY propaganda. dumbasses.”
- “just sent in my absentee ballot! MAGA!!!”
- “so glad affirmative action got overturned, I’m applying to college this year and I think I’ve got a way better shot now!”
not politics:
- “please look at this photo of my cat [
]”
- “just found out that my school is completely cutting all art classes. they say there’s not enough money but they’re literally paying the football coach $150k a year so like. joycat”
- “god I fucking hate how every time I go on Tumblr half my feed is filled with people arguing about whether Wrightworth is #problematic. please touch grass”
- “hi guys, does anyone have advice on coming out to your parents as trans? I’m scared they’re going to react badly”
- “just read this really great Lumity fic on Ao3” [link to a 250k fanfic that mentions Trump once]
borderline but we’d almost certainly allow it:
- “just registered to vote! super happy to finally be old enough :D”
- “heads-up that my activity might be a bit more sporadic in games going forward, Discourse got softbanned in my country so I have to use a VPN now and I can only do that at my desktop”
- “really nervous about this new law my state just passed that said trans people aren’t allowed to use either restroom. like wtf do you want me to do”
it’s politics if you do it in a discoursey way and not politics if you don’t. hope that helps
Oh I wasn’t saying that they were my frame of reference I was just scrolling back and that was one of the posts I made and had that as a point in time that I thought was much closer to now than it actually was
reported for politics
and ur just gonna not link that? Ok
it’s a fictional example, I don’t actually have a fic to link
damn…
gpt any pther lumity fanfics tho ive been wanting to get back into reading fanfic
I realised that shortly before sending hte post but thought the misunderstanding was too funny to not send the post
likewise my Tumblr dashboard is not full of people arguing about whether Wrightworth is problematic. if that were the case I would simply unfollow people
A better question is if Sora from SDRA2 is the best fangan protagonist.
(and/or any amphibia ship)
no sorry
Summary
honestly with some exceptions the Owl House fandom is just… worse at writing than a lot of my fandoms? I think this is probably because the average age is a lot lower, so you’ve got a bunch of people who are only just learning how to write, at all, which I don’t hold against them. But also it makes it hard to find fic that doesn’t suck
No but seriously I was doing research recently and sunscreen is actually super important especially if you live in sunny areas
