You know what? I find it comforting, actually, that most people who say 'I don't have time for fandom discourse, I need to pay my rent." Are inherently Proship.
Like, sure, a lot of them don't understand what Proship means, but a lot of them also say that to clown on the people (aka the antis) who take shipping way too far and talk about their legality.
Welcome to the proship side of tumblr, it's good to have you here!😊
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've been here for three days and I've already had such an amazing time thanks to people like you!
Just went on a MASSIVE block purge in the anti ship tag and, honestly? I had to scroll quite a bit to find anti shippers.
Most of it was my fellow Proshipers and some people constantly begging to do a survey. Maybe being an anti IS really small. At least on Tumblr.
Fandom has become so unfun nowadays. Just interacting with the media in general, honestly. I miss when I could watch someone make a negative review on something and hear actual reasons why it wasn't enjoyable (but still okay for other people to like it) rather than "This show is dealing with dark topics in a way I dislike."
I miss when it was actually ship whatever you want. I miss when people would ship whatever the heck they wanted regardless of canon. I miss when the most popular ship wasn't the canon ship. I miss when people could actually have fun.
Now it just feels like constantly having to avoid people because of the threat of actual harm because they weren't able to handle what they watched.
God, I saw that Furry = Pro ship argument once and it genuinely made me wanna pull my hair out.
'I mean, why would you WANT to sexualize something that has a dog head?'
Cuz it has a human enough body.
'But it has a dog head.'
But a human enough body.
'But-'
Fuck off. Human enough.
Like, at this rate we're gonna start criticizing sexualizing ANY type of character. Oh wait.
As someone who has been an ex-anti for a few years, watching antis from afar now is a little comical.
Is toxic yaoi/yuri romanticizing and sexualizing abusizing? Is Micah Bell x Arthur Morgan toxic fetishization? Are furries profic? Is Neon Genesis Evangelion proship content? Is Zuko x Katara problematic?
Idk man what are your thoughts on strawberry banana yogurt
I am reminded of my younger years where I dreamed (and still do) of creating a series, a show, SOMETHING! One of these shows in my head featured two non-identical twins (basic story One was blind and 'weak' and the other was forced to be a parent to the other) and I was always so scared to expand upon it because 'What if people ship them?' i thought about this a lot. Way more than normal. I would think of the fanfictions people would make of my twins, I would imagine how good the fanart would be, I would make it further fucked up for them by imagining the 'Parental' one to want some kind of reward for everything he's been put though just to take care of the other one, which would lead to them gently coaxing them into sex-
Eventually I realized I wasn't scared of them getting shipped because it was wrong, I was scared because I'd spend all my time reading the fanfiction than working on my story.
Hoot hoot
EVILNESS
In a few days, hours, years I'm gonna make a post about my self insert OCs and my Self ships. Stay turned for when I finished because then I'm gonna OPEN ART TRADES!
Overall, I wanna redesign my blog and how it looks, maybe change my banner, my colors (keeping Proship pink ofcccc), and other things. Just feels like I should since new year is coming and all 💜❤️
How I'm gonna look to antis soon:
A literal life saving reblog. Stay careful buddies. <3
EVERYBODY knows (or should) that you DO. NOT. STOP. in Vidor, Texas.
It’s best to just run out of gas elsewhere. Whatever you do, black folks, DO NOT STOP IN VIDOR, TEXAS.
There’s a good chance you’ll get lynched or just come up missing - and I’m not joking.
also do NOT stop in Harrison, Arkansas!!!! (relatively close to OK and MI) a nazi town with a BIG KKK organization.
Reblog To Save Life
There is a deep rooted part of me that wishes to make an 'Anti' tumblr blog, where I do what I do here but anti style, gain a bunch of followers and stuff, then make a final post saying 'Sorry guys, i am a proshipper now. This space makes me miserable." And end it on that.
I probably won't because i actually WILL be miserable.
I love the AMAZON DIGITAL CIRCUS quite a lot.
A while ago, Goosework made a post saying the characters can't change/take off their clothes, and it got me thinking. The latest episode shows them in whole new clothes, uniforms and all.
This could be the Goose lying again, OR this could be what it is.
The CHARACTERS can't change their clothes. But nothing says Caine can't.
