Curate, connect, and discover
To any parents out there who’s dealing with their children coming out, telling everyone in your family about it without asking your kid’s permission first is not acceptable. You can’t just do someone’s coming out for them. And saying "It’s because it’s hard for me, I need to talk to someone" is not a good reason. Try thinking about their feelings. It’s way harder for them than it is for you. Can you imagine how stressful it’s going to be for them to go to family gatherings, knowing that everyone knows and might not be okay with it? No, you can’t. So shut up and be a good parent instead.
Friendly reminder that fan-made content (fanart, fanfic, fanvids, etc) are:
extremely time consuming. Remember someone actually took time out of their life to create that, time they could’ve used to, idk, sleep, for example
entertainment you’re consuming for free. I can’t stress this enough: you’re enjoying someone else’s craft for free. You paid exactly zero money to look at/read/watch it.
S H A R E D with you, not made for you. This is the most important point: someone created that, put it online and you found it. No one forced you to consume that fanwork, you C H O S E to do it.
Whenever you feel like leaving a mean comment, anonymous hate or make a ~clever post about how ‘lol look at all of these overused tropes every fic writer crams into their fics’ remember you’re being a dick to someone who shared their work with you. You’re not being funny, you’re not being edgy, you’re not being brave for calling something out - you’re being a dick.
