Practical Magic (1998)
I didn’t want to make this post because I don’t wanna be perceived as someone who complains, but, last night something happened that got me so mad and I need to talk about it.
You need to have more respect to content creators, writers or artists, please, do not just ask for work like it is nothing, we know you’re excited, we know you say it in the best way possible, but believe me, it feels like we’re doing homework or something else if we don’t work on it because we want to. Before you ask for content from your favorite blogs, check their latest work, and the posts that they made, have they been active? Because we have things beside this blog, some of us have school, others have work and even some have both, yet, they make time to post something and to deliver content to you guys, which leads me to my next point.
I write because I love writing, I’ve been doing it since I was 12 and now I’m close to 21, I’ve also been reading fanfics since that time, and something that has been bothering me a lot is the lack of feedback people have at least here, working on a long piece of writing only to see it not even get 10 reblogs is painful, not getting a single comment is so demotivating, because, as much as I write for myself, posting and not hearing anything makes me think my work is not good, that I’m not doing it right. And I don’t get to have a space to complain because we are supposed to have this blog as just something for ourselves, not even gonna put on my anthropologist hat here just leavin that here bc i slightly disagree.
Then, when you ask for so much content and all we get is a like, it hurts, and it makes us think about just quitting for at least some time, what is the point of formatting, editing, changing details and more just to get two likes in one post when we have over 300 followers and not even get a single comment?
Have some respect for your content creators and I’m gonna repeat this again, REBLOG, REBLOG, REBLOG. Feedback is crucial when it comes to your favorite content creators staying, and please don’t complain about “well my blog loses aesthetic” because then we see that you just care about consuming our content and not even enough to get to be seen by others.
Thanks.
don’t care what shade just reblog.
Oh my god…

Little random rant time.
I’m honestly so tired of people treating minors like they are mindless children who can’t/won’t/don’t make their own decisions. Yeah, a 17-year-old can be a fucking child but so can a 23-year-old?? Like??? At the ripe old age of 19, aka JUST BARELY AN ADULT I am still very much young minded and dependent and pretty similar to most 17-year-olds out there. Like honestly, your age doesn’t change your life and perception. You know what makes you mature? Experiences. Going to college made me more mature. Graduating and finally leaving high school made me more mature. Deciding to stop letting abusive people manipulate me into continuing relationships and friendships made me more mature. I am not necessarily any smarter or mature or more capable than any 17 or even 16-year-old out there. I have met 15-year-olds that have more intelligence and maturity and life experience than some fucking 30-year-olds I’ve known. The only thing being 18 does is give you legal rights to some parts of your life. 18 is not some magical age where you suddenly should only NOW be held responsible for your actions or decisions. Maybe legally it’s different, but personality and societally, you are no different. For fucks sake you aren’t even a “legal adult” in Japan or Korea until you’re 20.
Stop acting like minors are infants and should be safeguarded like little fragile glass dolls. And if you ARE going to infantilize and overprotect, overprotect ANY young person. Not just “minors.” An 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 year old shouldn’t be any less protected than a 17 year old, at least in my opinion. Anyone young is still really fucking liable to have shitty stuff happen to them and not be able to handle it. I’m just as uncomfortable at 19 being hit on by an old man as I was at 17.
Also, give minors a voice. They have a right to be heard, just like any other adult. Your opinion isn’t less because your age is. Do you know how many revolutionary-minded young people there are in this world? So many you’d lose count. We have so many problems that we decide to segregate because of age. Yes, we have our adult age set in law for a reason, but that reason should not be exploited and blown out of proportion. You do not get to shove your personal societal values onto something that is solely based in reasons of legality and logic.
Okay, sorry if that was super fucking long winded but I needed to get that off my chest. It’s been bothering me. Feel free to ignore the fuck out of this because as per usual it is literally all just my opinion. Probably going to get hate for this. I won’t be surprised.
