So, People Are Just Allowed To Take Art That They Like Just Because They Don't Like The Person Who Created

So, people are just allowed to take art that they like just because they don't like the person who created it? 'I hate this person for no valid reason, so let's make them feel like shit by doing this'. Really? Block buttons exist for a reason. Last I checked, it wasn't hard to use them. If you have a problem with a particular person, block them. But don't go out of your way to take things from them.

How can you talk such shit about someone, but then take their work and say 'this is amazing even though I hate you'?

Also, they have no evidence of racism, or homophobia (to someone who is a POC and draws gay fanart). Why is it that people just feel the need to spread hate when fandom is supposed to be a place of acceptance?

Art Theft and Bullying in The Old Guard Fandom

Hey TOG fandom! Do you know that stealing art is a crime? Do you have a problem with bullying (“because that poc muslim artist deserves!11!” based on a random tumblr post) within Discord servers? You do?… then read on.

Please grab some cookies and tea (and get comfortable!) and read on. This is a SERIOUS matter that I, as an outsider, was able to see WITHOUT being influenced by anyone else. I am not friends with any of the people involved here, although after these events I have empathy towards them.

I’m telling you this so you won’t be able to say to me “you are allied with/you are influenced by”… That is not the case. I have facts and evidence, so please read! I will be talking about ART THEFT, BASHING, REPOSTING, AND DISGUSTING BULLYING BEHAVIOUR towards a person who is not even in the server. As a fellow fanartist I feel so bad because  “this artist deserves it” in their mind. 

(Now: apparently there is a part of the beautiful The Old Guard fandom that thinks: the characters and people’s headcanons are more important rather than an actual person’s well-being, and with every new illustration by the artist, they are badly spoken of. Because… ugh, why not?)

I talked about facts, so here’s one:

Pretty sure I just got blocked by someone for saying that The Old Guard fandom needs to shut the fuck up about it being racist if Joe tops Nicky.

Seriously?

This shit has gotten out of hand. People are now saying that a sexual position is racist.

How? Literally how in the fuck is sex now racist?

I'm saying this for the last time:

FANFICTION IS A FANTASY! IF I WANT TO IMAGINE TWO MEN FUCKING, WHAT DOES IT MATTER TO ANYONE BUT ME WHO I WANT TO GET FUCKED AND WHO I WANT TO DO THE FUCKING?

Also, a little TMI, I'm a sub. And usually when I get into fandoms, I associate myself with my favorite character. And if I ship them with someone, I usually put them on bottom.

Nicky is my favorite. So, I put him on bottom. And who the hell can look at Joe and not think, 'damn, I want him to hold me down and make me call him daddy'?

Sex is not about racism. Fanfiction is not about racism.

Are we done? Can we stop with this bullshit?

And apparently in one and out the other for you too. All your saying is that I need to take other people's feelings into account of what MY PERSONAL FANTASY IS.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, SCROLL PAST.

I do the same. I do not stop at every post I don't like and try to dumb it down and explain why I don't like it, or that I think it's bad. I just ignore it. Pretty simple really.

Also, have you ever heard of a rape fantasy? Yes, it's a thing. A very common thing. Among every ethnic group in the world. No one cares. If people would read the tags that are posted to stories, they could avoid the things they don't like. It's not that hard.

I'm not going to be nice anymore.

I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS ON WHO FUCKS WHO.

And I don't give two shits who blocks me for calling people out on their ignorance. You are more than welcome to block me of you would like to. I don't care. But stop telling me what I need to feel bad for in FICTION. You know, the thing that's made up? Not real?

I'm done and tired. It's not real. It's pretend. If you don't like it, you don't have to read it. Or look at it. Or interact with it in any way, shape or form.

But stop telling me to take other people into account when I read or write something that's for me, not for you.

Just block me. Because I am done with this bullshit.

I'm so happy you liked it! I literally just wrote it off the top of my head.

If anyone wants to read it, I do have it posted to my account and it's edited, So it's a bit better than what I left in the comment section. This was actually very fun to write. I hope to do more with this pairing.

Zingaro was showing remorse after he let’s his dogs attacked his own bestfriend.

......I don't know know what to say.

Yesterday, I wrote a little ficlet based on a gif post of Jeeg Robot. And it is a Fabio/Majid fic. It's very smutty and I love this pairing.

I posted it to my ao3 with the name Quick to Anger. I posted it on here first and got such amazing feed back and I am so thankful and happy that people actually liked it.

But, the first comment I received from ao3 was, 'lady gaga talented brilliant incredible etc gif'.

.....Did ........Did I just get compared to Lady Gaga????? WHAT???? I do NOT deserve that comparison. Not at all! But I'm thankful that someone liked my work enough to compare me to such a amazing person as her!

I don't deserve this, but I love you guys!

So, guess who tested positive for Covid-19 and gets to be in quarantine until the 7th?

Yep. This girl!

I'm going to try not to think about it and maybe possibly get some writing done.

And thanks to @maghrib-genova I've fallen in love with Roberta/Pierre and have had an idea rolling around in my head for weeks now. Maybe I can get a chance to actually write it.

I'm not going to let this beat me. Or anyone I love. Fuck this virus. Fuck 2020. I'm going to focus on what makes me happy and hopefully this will fly by.
