Don’t. Guilt. People. Into. Reblogging. Anything.
I don’t care what the post is about.
You don’t do that.
You don’t know what their story is.
There could be a very good reason why they don’t reblog something.
Maybe it brings up bad memories.
Or maybe it’s not something they agree with.
Or maybe they don’t like being manipulated into reblogging things???
To add onto OP’s post
It’s perfectly okay to put “ Reblogs are appreciated ” or “ Reblogs are better than likes ” on your post
Those are fine, what isn’t fine is stuff like “ Reblog or I’ll kill myself ” or “ Reblog this or you’re a bad person ” or “ If you don’t reblog this, a scary ghost lady will come out from under your bed and kill you ”
^those are not okay cause it is really guilt trippy and inflicts anxiety into people (especially the last one)

things that DO make this website “toxic”:
- adults holding young minors to the exact same standards as them
- staff ignoring literal nazis and pedophiles
- the popular idea on here that mildly (quote unquote) “problematic” statements always hold the exact same weight regardless of whether they were made 5 minutes ago or 5 years ago
- terfs
things that DON’T make this website “toxic”:
- calling white people “mayonnaise”
- kids still figuring out their respective mental states
- people constantly finding out new terms for whatever gender they want to identify by
- people identifying as otherkin and not even hurting anyone else by doing that
The otherkin one is a bit iffy though. Like, if someone claims to be otherkin of a character you made as a coping mechanism then guilt tripping you for being mad that they are hijacking your coping character, then that is toxic.
okay, but that’s GUILT TRIPPING being toxic, not otherkinity being toxic?? that’s like saying stopsigns are dangerous because a murderer used one to chop somebody’s head off. the murderer is the dangerous part, not the stop sign. otherkinity isn’t toxic. period.
Even claiming to be the character someone else made to cope with something is toxic though since yo’re taking their pain and exploiting it. Like, if a schizophrenic makes a character based off of their hallucinations and you claim to be that character IRL, you’re a dick. And no, this isn’t some random scenario, this is something I’ve seen actually happen.
hi! are you schizophrenic? cause i am! you don’t get a say in that!
hi! are you otherkin? cause i am! you don’t get a say in that either!
hi! do you have proof or links or receipts? cause i haven’t seen em!
you’re reaching. so far. sooo far. ask somebody to pass you the fucking pasta reaching across the table like this is rude.
@silver-tongues-blog also, you using the suffering of schizophrenics to try and prove your argument (that isn’t even about schizophrenia) is exploitation so go fuck yaself
And you’re overgeneralizing my statement. I said that claiming to be otherkin of someones coping character is toxic but you misconstrue that to encompass the entirety of otherkin.
Claiming to be otherkin of someones coping character IS toxic.
and you’re trying to use a specific made up example to demonize otherkin and make them seem toxic
yeah, claiming the identity of someone’s coping character is toxic
that isn’t otherkinity, that isn’t otherkin being toxic, that doesn’t make otherkin toxic
your argument is toxic though! nice how you’re ignoring the fact that you did the exact thing you said you were against: exploiting the pain of mentally ill people for your own benefit
I’m not demonizing otherkin. I’m “demonizing” those who claim to be kin with someones coping character. you’re the one who is generalizing my statement.
So you’re saying that if someone has a character they use to cope with mental illness or trauma and someone claims kin with it, the creator isn’t allowed to do anyhting?
1: okay, don’t say otherkin are toxic then. they aren’t. say that people who exploit people’s coping mechanisms are toxic. that’s like saying water is bad because people have drowned in it. water isn’t bad, murder is bad. otherkin aren’t fucking toxic. OTHERKIN AREN’T FUCKING TOXIC. OTHERKIN. AREN’T. FUCKING. TOXIC.
2: where the fuck did i say that? where the fuck did i say that it’s okay for someone to claim kin with a coping character? find that. find it. i’ve been saying that people SHOULDN’T do that this entire fucking time, and that people actually DON’T do it cause they’re decent fucking people. you still have yet to supply an example of someone claiming kin with a coping character against their wishes. most otherkin ARE OTHERKIN for fucking COPING REASONS!! shocker! stop making shit up oh my god
1) Otherkin arn’t toxic, the ones who claim to be someone elses coping character are
2) you’re getting mad at me for saying that people who claim to be someones coping character are toxic so I assumed you think that’s permissible.
i’m not! getting mad at you! for saying people who claim to be a coping character! are toxic! I WAS! AGREEING WITH YOU! THAT CLAIMING TO BE A COPING CHARACTER! IS TOXIC!
i was getting MAD AT YOU for using the made up example of somebody doing a shitty thing (such as claiming the identity of a coping character) and trying to apply the example that never happened to an entire group of people who would never do that
“the otherkin one is iffy” you said
otherkin are toxic is what you meant. that is what that meant. august said otherkin weren’t toxic and you disagreed with them. period.
otherkin! AREN’T TOXIC! people who claim the identity of coping characters ARE TOXIC! but guess what? PEOPLE WHO CLAIM THE IDENTITY OF COPING CHARACTERS
A R E N ’ T
O T H E R K I N
I wasn’t using it to condemn an entire group. I never said that all otherkin are bad. I said just the ones who claim to be someone elses coping character are.
Did… Did you not even read any of this?
From this guy: “PEOPLE WHO CLAIM THE IDENTITY OF COPING CHARACTERS A R E N ’ T  O T H E R K I N”
From Wikipedia: “Otherkin are people who identify as partially or entirely non-human. Some say that they are, in spirit if not in body, not human. This is explained by some members of the otherkin community as possible through reincarnation, having a non-human soul, ancestry, or symbolic metaphor.”
From UrbanDictionary: “Otherkin are a fringe group of human society who, for one reason or another, believe themselves to be the reincarnation of mythic creatures, typically elves, though others include dragons, demons, vampires, ogres, deities, and so on. Related groups include therianthropes, who believe themselves reincarnations of animal souls, and otakin/otakukin, people who think they are reincarnations of fictitious characters from Japanese anime, manga, and video games.”
Uh…?

No point using logic on them, they have way too many fallacies like hasty generalization, no true scottsman, ad hominem, personal incredulity, composition/division and the classic texas sharpshooter. Also the hindsight bias.

Hit the Diamond
GIVE ME ALL THE RUBIEEEES!!!
The way that this episode had not only things I wished, but things I thought that would be pretty unlikely to happen makes it hard to believe that I’m not dreaming, somehow. At the beginning of this year I made a fancomic with lots of Rubies and had such a great time just by playing with the idea… I could never imagine that we would have such an anime-istic episode WITH THAT MANY RUBIES. AND SO MANY RUPPHIRE MOMENTS. The jokes were amazing, all other characters were just as incredible, DAMN. I’m so happy!

Scrappy is unsettlingly big here and it’s taking up the focus away from Cool Girl™ and Shaggy’s fursona
Scooby looks like he’s being turned on by Shaggy’s fursona. So Scrappy is probably there to censor Scooby’s Dooby.
