well jsut telling them isn’t going to work because the writers of the fuckign show have said it many times and it hasn’t worked. THe only way to make it work is to participate in the drama and be civil about it. stay calm and stick to facts and call out every bit of bullshit the bad fans do.
considering there’s no term for a steven universe fan other than a steven universe fan, I don’t think that is applicable. the only way to not associate myself with the fandom would be to stop participating in theories and fanart and just watch it as is and as someoen who loves theories and making fanart, that sounds boring to me. Also, doing that would be a variation of the no true scottsman fallacy. I’m not going to deny the fact that I am a fan of the show and participate in making fanworks and ignoring the bad of the fandom doesn’t work, trust me. It just makes the fandom as a whole seem worse because denying that these things are happening within the group seems like it’s condoning their actions. I do not under any circumstance condone harassment so I will not ignore it or act like it doesn’t happen.
This hell app somehow manages to use five times the data of the full location-based MMO I’ve been playing almost constantly, and it still doesn’t load images 90% of the time
tumblr is coded with the html equivalent of tongue depressers and glue
I’m more impressed it uses seven times the amount of data as “the rest of the internet”
because no matter how shit the fandom is, the show is still pretty solid and the bad fans are a minority, like most fandoms. I’m not gonna try and pull a no true scotsman fallacy and claim they aren’t true fans. I’m gonna actively call out their bullshit.
This whole bro code thing where if a guy dates his friend’s sister he’s betraying the friend is wild, you would think your sister dating your friend meant you didn’t have to worry because he’s someone you know and trust but it just goes to show how all these bros know one another to be misogynistic and predatory and regularly exhibit that behavior around one another, and it’s all fun and games and bros before hos until somebody hits on somebody’s sister. Like, clearly you are aware that you are all gross to women but that’s okay with you as long as you and your friends are targeting random women and no one is doing the same to your sister or mother? Why do women have to be related to you for it to occur to you to respect them?
SHIT
aperture science is an underground facility in michigan
and its
BEAUTIFUL
In the year -1,000,000,000, Aperture Science might not have been here
In the year ~1960, it was here, and you could buy it. And some person bought it.
And then it got developed, some labs got built, and now there’s lots of
~SCIENCE~
Because it’s a corporate entity.
ding dong, it’s the outside world.
with zombines. and combine.
(zombine)aperture science- hey Black Mesa
black mesa- Hey dipshits
Aperture science- can you call us something other than dipshits?
knock knock, get the door, it’s SCIENCE
Cave Johnson wants everyone to try this hot new science called Testing
“try it” he said
“no” said everybody
“tryyyyy it” he said
“no” said everybody else, quieter this time
and so the Testing Initiative was put into place, and all the science that came with it
and the lab boys are like nooo don’t do that you don’t have the money to buy 70 million dollars of moon rocks
and Cave Johnson said ♪♫ how ‘bout i do anyway? ♪♫
Wheatley is kind of scared of GLaDOS. You’ll never guess who’s also kind of scared of GLaDOS. Chell! So Wheatley and Chell make an alliance together so they can be a little less scared of GLaDOS.
so it’s time for who’s going to be the next personality core. Usually it’s the last AI that was made but they didn’t make anymore AI. So they try and make this core stop caring about space and be the next core. He says okay but then they make a new core. SO now who’s it gonna be? vote now on your portal device. And everyone voted so hard that the place was flooded with a deadly neuro-toxin. GLaDOS core didn’t actually care, she was off somewhere doing science.
- they ruined a small business which happened to share the same name as one of the businesses in the show by leaving fake reviews in reference to the show
- barred the brony fandom from “joining” because they thought it would “taint” their fandom with porn (despite the fact there’s been porn since gem glow because that’s why it’s one of the rules of the internet)
- they harassed people to near suicide because of fucking headcanons on three separate occasions. (one time was because an artist drew rose skinny, one was because they drew one character as human and didn’t make her black and one was because they shipped pearl and mayor dewey)
- they harass cosplayers who don’t have “the right body type” or “the right skin tone”
- they frequently harass the writers because the writers call the bad fans out and say that people are free to have their own headcanons and interpretations and that people are free to cosplay whatever they want.
- they accused rebecca sugar of being racist because bismuth
- and most recently they harassed one of the story board artists off of twitter because she says people are free to ship whatever they want.
