“ugh this character is so annoying and immature” this character is 14

"This teenage character is unsympathetic". So were you. Grow up.

Not me I was born an empath. I cried after being born bc the nurse was sad her husband left her. Maybe you should grow up instead.

What’s a pirate’s favorite type of relationship?

a QPRrrrrrrrrr

Well of course - they’re Arrrromantic!

At first I was impressed then I decided that this person was the worst kind of person

“That’s a pretty nifty style you’ve got there!  I can tell you’ve been practicing it quite a bit, considering the imprints in the paper, but that just goes to show that-wait…oh, you son of a bitch.”

Did this for school assignment.

What I love most about Gandalf big naturals is how much it eases my chest dysphoria. I can sleep without a shirt on now because of Gandalf Big Naturals. Knowing that the artist made the original image while recovering from top surgery and said the image was like a final parting gift from their boobs makes me feel even better about the image's effect on me. Men with big naturals makes me feel much more good about my body than those old posts on here that were like "trans men! Some men have pecs!!! So don't feel dysphoric <3". It's much more meaningful to see a hairy, bearded man with a huge H cup rack not letting his tits get in the way of his masculinity.

Most of all, Gandalf Big Naturals helped me love my body the way it is instead of hating something that's a part of me. Of course I still want top surgery but the fact that I can live with my own big naturals until then without wanting to guillotine them off is really important.

Zepotha will never be Goncharov because when it comes down to it, tumblr culture is collaborative, while tiktok culture is merely iterative, and those are not the same thing.

Op I refuse to let your tags stay in the tags cause THIS!!!!!

"Red white and royal blue is too cringy" "heartstopper is too unrealistic" yeah maybe but so is every single other rom com under the sun. Why does queer media always need to be realistic and profound while straight stories get more freedom to be silly and fantastical?

i love when smthing makes u mad and then u eat food and ur like okay that was still wrong but im normal about it now

taps mic haha. lot of dwarves in the c.rowd tonight

i saw a girl on tiktok who put her salt lamp in the dishwasher and didn’t realize it would dissolve, and it’s been on my mind for like 3 days

thank god i screen shot it

Yeah !!!!! Firefox truly is the superior browser

much to Yahoo's chagrin, Firefox is actually the new pdf

rate this subway hole

why does this station's subway entrance make me feel like I'm getting flushed down a toilet

Leg pov when you pull your trousers. I love this

listen im obsessed with this answer

steaming hot take apparently but if ur an adult u shouldn’t even really be in fandom spaces. like i watch a show talk about it w a couple friends look at some fan art and get on w my life. it’s obviously dependent on the content ur consuming but being an active member of a fandom when ur 20+ is like. a weird investment of ur time especially when u can leave the house without parents permission

also i’m not trying to say not to enjoy media and not to speak to people who enjoy the same media but like. there’s definitely a proper way to act and u shouldn’t be picking fights w kids half your age over ships

nah sorry this is dumb as hell. this speaks more to your inability to carve out an appropriate fandom space away from children than it does to any generalized truth. if you can’t find a healthy median between “actively harassing kids on the internet” and “ceasing all public fandom activity immediately upon becoming an adult” then idk what to tell you dude

in addition to this, have you ever considered that just because you don’t like participating in fandom, that doesn’t make your personal preference the only morally acceptable way for other people to relate to media?

I didn’t lose my right to the house I helped to build because I turned twenty. Scary story time: adulthood is coming for you, too, and by your own rules, one day you’ll have to leave with nothing but the stories in your heart and the empty hands you brought here.

The networks used by fandom–archives, journals, social media sites–are built, maintained and paid for by adults.

Canons are written, edited, published, acted, directed, produced, released, marketed by adults. 

Fandom products like zines, cons, fanart in all its forms–dating all the way back to Star Trek–were created by adults.

There are decades of fic online, written by people who long ago turned twenty. And twenty-five. And thirty. And fifty. Even if they wrote it while they were under twenty, it still belongs to adults. They left that work up for future readers to enjoy instead of taking it down when they hit adulthood.

What a small, small place fandom would be if everything ever created by someone who turned twenty disappeared overnight!

Yet only teens are entitled to the fruits of all this labor? That seems weird. Why? Let’s unpack it.

Here’s an actual smoking hot take: fandom loves its grandmas. Its seventy year old ladies who cosplay, and those who start tumblrs to re-engage with fandom after decades away, and those Sassy Old Ladies Who DGAF. It loves its enthusiastic teenagers and college students.

But in between those ages? A gulf. A desert. An empty space. It’s almost like Hollywood that way, when an it-girl actress hits “mom” age and she’s expected to disappear until she returns as an old lady.

(A relevant quote from The First Wives Club, “There are only three ages for women in Hollywood: Babe, District Attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.”)

But that it-girl never stopped being talented, the audience just didn’t want to look at her during the transition from “hot consumable object” to “cute and harmless.” With maturity comes self-possession, which sooo many people find threatening.

Fandom’s attitude toward age reflects the same pervasive sexist standard. Women (and fandom is still overwhelmingly women) from their late twenties right up into their old age are supposed to just…vanish.

The unspoken implication is that they should “settle down” at that age and shouldn’t have time for fandom anyway. What does “settling down” even mean in this context though? It means becoming a wife and mother…and wives and mothers aren’t supposed to have pursuits outside their domestic roles. You can see that reflected in the widespread disdain that often drips off the term “fandom mom” in discourse.

This is curiously absent from discourse about men with their hobbies, by the way. At most they get saddled with the “man-child” label, which is damaging in a different way, but that is nevertheless more socially acceptable than a woman doing the same thing. Note the difference, too, that “man-child” and other such terms emphasize immaturity, a refusal to grow up, being child-like, while “fandom mom” and such emphasize a woman being too old for a space and define her by a caretaking role. It reflects the old heterosexist “girls mature faster than boys” thing so casually you probably don’t even think about it when you see it.

I find this sliding “allowed” age scale…unnerving. When I entered fandom at mumblyteen, thirty was the age you were supposed to “get out.” Now it’s twenty? In ten years, what, fifteen? The environment we foster in fandom should be getting less confining, not more.

You get there and all the pretty boys look up from drinking from the reservoir and gallop away like gazelle
