is the secret image a reference to Misfits?

hard same, OP

Nah, more like turns out you were confusing a broad commercial-writing audience for your industry brand/blog with a creative-writing audience for your fic for specific shows. Naturally the latter audiences will be much smaller.

Commercial creative meant to entertain and inform is still under the broad umbrella of creative work, but it's not the same thing as writing fic for the sake of storytelling. Fiction/literature and content-writing/marketing aren't the same industry for a reason.

I wouldn't say I "hate it" but it can be annoying to be sure.

Amen.

I don't understand what "won't let" means. Are shippers in your fandom insisting it's romantic and it's not possible that it's platonic, and shutting out the people who think it's platonic or something?

Usually I see some people insisting it's platonic and no other way, others insisting it's romantic and no other way, and most people being okay with either and glad there's both.

"Fiction/literature and content-writing/marketing aren't the same industry for a reason."

And it's MUCH easier to land a steady paying job doing the second one.

I can understand the frustration but I also don't think shipping something = not appreciating their friendship. At least, in my experience, both tend to go hand in hand!

Ultimately, shipping remains within fandom, so if it bothers you that much you can just distance yourself from it and enjoy canon as-is. No harm done!

What's the last youtube video you watched?

Eh, I was watching stuff in my favorites list last night, that was fun.

[(Anonymous)]

Have you not been in any huge fandom??

[(Anonymous)]

I have. There are always vocal minorities that insist a pair is true love or insist that romance can never, ever happen. But there are always vast swaths of less vocal regular fans appreciating both, in my experience.

But it takes being in and around the fandom to realize the quieter fans are there. From the outside, you only see the vocal people.

What bad news have you gotten recently?

[(Anonymous)]

Apparently all my tires are rotted and need to be replaced. And I have bought the cheapest tires I can get at Walmart without shit rating and will get them to replace them. It will still cost $300. YAY!

[(Anonymous)]

The idea that y'all think "het romance" is that different than "gay romance" just boggles me.

If Rowling sucks at romance, she sucks at romance. Period.

[(Anonymous)]

I only read enemy ships, so in my fandoms the protagonists get to keep their platonic relationships with their best friends.

[(Anonymous)]

spoken like a homophobic troll.

why not just go read genfic and leave the slashers alone? (i don't really slash right now, but i am a shipper.)

Damn you, OP from two days ago, for making me aware of those channels!

[(Anonymous)]

I'm curious what we'll get to see in Fantastic Beasts.

I could totally see myself shipping Law!Dumbledore, but not with Depplewald.

[(Anonymous)]

Dumblawdore falling for Depplewald is good foreshadowing of Albus making poor life choices later, though.
