Hi!! I wanted to ask if you guys were comfortable with things like x readers or general fanfics being written for your au? I believe you've said before that as long as it isn't sinsworld you're okay with it, but I just wanted to make sure! I don't want to accidentally make anyone uncomfortable or break any boundaries I wasn't aware of! <:]

Also, I hope you're having a good day!!! ^^

Wow! It would be SO interesting to read a fanfiction based on the pond child au, I’d absolutely love to have that kind of insight into how people would write these characters.

As so long as it‘s not sexual and doesn’t promote anything bad/unhealthy (i stress, absolutely no proship/profiction content) I would absolutely love to read it! <33

Hey, let's talk about anons like this, because I know some people haven't been in a position to see the patterns these play out in on broader scale and may indeed not spot the trap.

And it is a trap.

An ask like this has several purposes.

First, it uses social justice language in passive aggressive and manipulative ways to try to coerce a behavior. In this case, the desired behavior is usually for the recipent to participate in community shunning and/or harrassment. The language above is intended to put the recipient on the defensive where, in the haste to disassociate themself from the Bad Thing, they quickly disassociate themself from the bad person, often with no particular fact checking or evidence.

The message is also intended to create a sense of being surveilled and judged by an unknown amount of people with unknown amount of social power and an unknown amount of relevance to your life.

Notice that these asks are usually framed as if they are coming from a follower or potential follower, someone who is addressing you personally and who cares about your opinion and who your blog has an effect on. However this is usually.... very much not the case. If you've ever had the misfortune to watch a gossip campaign from like this from the outside, you will very quickly notice that messages like this get sent in mass batches to dozens and dozens of strangers. (You can often turn these up with a tumblr search, if you look.)

The sender does not know you and probably does not follow you. They have a person they don't like (possibly for their stated reason and possibly not), and they are going through the reblogs of a post from that blog and mass messaging *everyone* with a form letter. They will not see your response and they will probably never even see your blog again.

Which brings us to the second goal of whisper campaigns like this:

Notice that I blacked out the names above? That's because when the recipient answers anonymous asks like this, they provide a platform for the opinion on their blog. An anonymous message like this that gets posted doesn't just spread gossip and apply pressure to the recipient, it is spread to the recipient's entire community.

The *goal* is to get access to your community. The *goal* is to use you as a soapbox.

Is the information accurate? Did anyone check? Does the anon have an ulterior social motive? BIG SHRUG

If you go into the comments on one of these whisper campaigns you will see that *most people never bother to check.*

They assume good faith from a follower, they're off balance defending themselves, and they jump straight to conciliation.

It's a really, really effective form of social manipulation, and really really commonly misused.

TOMORROW IS HALLOWEEN!!!

shopping carts are pathetic little herd animals and when you don’t bring them back to their corrals after they’re done helping you they scream and cry and wail because they’re alone and scared and exposed to predators. you have the power to prevent this

So. Update. The 2 years are almost up. I've grown alot since this post and indeed needed to wait till 15 :]

that gamer moment

when you’re about to sign in to the ducking scp wiki, read everything in detail and learn where to do what but-

so you kinda just wanna enter to have “experience” but you don’t want to fail the rules so you’re thinking about waiting 2 years to creat the account.

but i completely understand the rule, and the fact that i’m complaining about it on tumblr shows that the rule is there for a reason.

so yeah. you better ducking bet im about to wait 2 years of my short and useless life just to creat an account there.
