I Hope You Are Happy With All The Sympathy You Are Recieving Lately. People Will Do Anything For Attention

I hope you are happy with all the sympathy you are recieving lately. People will do anything for attention these days. Sending yourself hateful asks. To get others sympathy.

Again this isn't Youtube or gofundme or some other sympathy seeking app. I don't have to send myself for 'sympathy'. I am gaining absolutely nothing from the sympathies of random strangers online.

I had my friend tell me that one of the best changes in the fanfic shitshow was changing Rhaenyra's black and red dress to Alisaint's green dress.

And when I asked her why was it so? Her simple answer was sending me this reddit post.

"Never made sense, as a fierce statement, her house colors, what's so defiant about it?" -Maybe the fact that Alicent was actively trying to replace her position as heir? And her telling Alicent to fuck off.

"Like something Sansa would do" -you mean Cersei? Sansa isn't stupid enough to commit treason against the king, to have a 'fuck you, i am cool' moment.

"It gave the moment the Greens and Blacks were born" -you mean when the greens were born? Where is the black counterpart? The part where Renada married a black man, maybe? Or the that house Velaryon wore black?

All the emotional weight it deserved, much more than the books ever did. -emotinal weight?lol. The books had a plot behind it, Rhaenyra making a statement she is every inch a Targaryen, and her father's true heir. What exactly did the show do? Alisaint being angry because renada fucked someone?

Lol. These people are truly delusional.

It's so funny how you assigned one of Rhaenyra's colors are blue. Blue is Helaena's color, to honor dreamfyre and her bond with dreamfyre. Yall really want Rhaenyra to be the second Helaena🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Please go and figure out who Rhaenyra's mother is.

Queen Aemma Arryn. An Arryn, whose house color is blue. She is the Daughter of Princess Daella Targaryen. A Targaryen, who married into the Arryns.

'The second Helaena'. Rhaenyra came first, if anything you are trying to make Helaena a second Rhaenyra.🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

How much of a racist should you be to think that rhaenya didn't force cristin. Yall are stupid. She did force him to have sex with her

To begin with my post was not related to fanfic shitshow.

Now there's this acc that said canon/book Alicent and Rhaenyra's beauty cannot be compared, because 'Alicent is just as beautiful as Rhaenyra'. And their reasoning? Because Hightowers have Silver/blonde hair. And ofc Alicent had silver hair. And silver hair is the only thing that makes Rhaenyra more beautiful than Alicent.

The only Hightowers with silver hair is Alerie, who is most likely 40+, it could simply be age. OR the fact she came after Rhaena married into House Hightower. She had six DAUGHTERS. Lady Sam and Lyonel had six SONS. I'm not saying they all married each other. BUT, they're cousins. Though Westerosis did not marry their siblings, they did marry their cousins (ex: Tywin & Joanna, were first cousins).

It is so stupid how the shitshow has brainwashed people.

The only upperhand Alicent had on Rhaenyra was the fact she remained a slim beauty after 4 pregnancy.

Not people saying “Fandom has always been like this” in that vent post I made. No. It hasn’t always been like this. Fandom has NEVER been like this until recently and if you were in fandom pre-tumblr purge, pre-twitter, pre-netflix boom, pre-tiktok….then you would fucking know it was nothing like this.

We still had the drive to create. We still sold prints and charms and made zines…but it was never like this.

The introduction of streaming, binge shows that drop all at once, tiktok and vine RIP i still love u vine but you were the beginning of a particularly ugly era) creating this bite sized, quick paced ‘content’ era of creation and it bled out into fucking everything else.

Fandoms didn’t die down when the show ended or the season was over. You didn’t mass unfollow artist, writers or moots just because they changed fandoms. There wasn’t this need to please the algorithm in order for your posts to get seen by people and enjoyed.

Fandoms used to last YEARS. Star Trek is literally the oldest running fandom out there and you got people in there that could care less about the new stuff and still have been happily prancing through their fucking fifty year old fandom today. Hell, even SPN after all it’s fuckups and shitshows has a dedicated fanbase STILL creating tons of art and fic.

There is no patience anymore. No calm feeling of taking in fandom and friends at a pace that which doesn’t make you stressed and is still fun.

Do I blame fandom for this? Of course not, but people are complacent with it and start changing their vocab to accommodate and end up making the situation so deep it cant be fixed.

We call Art & Fic Content now, completely stripping the value of what it is to a level of consumerism instead of personal entertainment & community bonding.
