Now in what world is that a reasonable stance? Esp considering that the people aging down the characters are most likely freaking teenagers themselves.

This sorta shit is exactly why we have minors going "I'm attracted to other people my age! I'm so gross!" and calling themselves p*dos for it.

Disturbing that I've seen stuff like that in the wild. Overall, they've created so much fear. "pls don't kill me"

"can't post this on main or they'll kill me"

"pls tell me if I rb from anyone problematic!!!"

"I'll stop shipping Hobie if the next movie reveals his age to be X"

You are promising not to think about a character anymore based on some random number a writer might throw into the next script. You are literally policing your own thoughts. Your mind is your own. No one has access to it. No one should, even if it was possible. Daydreaming about a character is as harmless an activity as one could possibly imagine. You don't need anyone's consent for that because it is not real, and you definitely don't need the consent of some rando on tumblr. Your mind is your own. Learn to protect it from creeps who want to stick their nose inside.

Like there isn't enough anxiety when you're a teen, now you also have to worry about being a monster for no reason whatsoever.

I don't know which miserable, anti-AO3 dickhead needs to hear this, but nobody is obligated to donate to you, especially when you're being an entitled cunt about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"instead of giving money to ao3, you should give money to me instead!"

no thank you random tumblr, i don't owe you shit, nor does anybody else. you think people are going to donate to you when you resort to that level of entitlement? not happening.

oh, and you can never forget the classic:

"but that money could have gone to someone that needed it!"

like, you can apply that to fucking anything.

ever spent money on fashion, video games, movies, paid subscriptions, art, figures, books, literally any fucking non-essential item that makes you happy?

that money could have gone to charity, too.

i'm honestly so tired of hearing the same shit every time ao3 donations open.

how people react to the content you create is NOT your responsibility

if you create fictional content that..

  • Squicks people out
  • Triggers people
  • Portrays immoral acts in a positive light
  • Romanticises immoral acts
  • Contains depictions of illegal acts

then it is not your responsibility if people have a negative reaction to such topics.

What is your responsibility is using tags, trigger warnings, and content warnings on the content you create.

And that goes both ways.

It is also your responsibility to filter tags, and keep in mind trigger/ content warnings.

If you are old enough to be on the internet, you are old enough to curate your online experience.

Creators, fanfiction writers, artists, and other creative people are not here to

  • parent you
  • Inform your morals
  • Educate you about laws
  • And curate your experience for you.

It is not victim blaming for simply stating that other people's interpretations, morals, messages, and information that they receive from your content is not your responsibility.

Because again,

THAT IS YOUR YOURS! THAT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!

Love how our society views trashing certain art as a sign of intellectualism

You don't even need to pretend to be into high brow shit anymore. Just say you hate whatever is considered trashy right now, and there's your dose of serotonin from feeling superior to the masses.
