Just stay the fuck away from ghettostuck and you'll be fine.

I know how you feel, OP, but sometimes it's really for the best. There's always other fandoms and other characters out there for you to find and fall in love with; going back to the same well once it's started going dry really to kills your enjoyment of fandom and writing in general, or at least it did me.

But yeah. It does suck.

Eh, I wouldn't call him RACIST but it is pretty naive to assume you can actually write a character to be "raceless"

This secret kind of annoys me because I'm almost certain OP knows they aren't "pathetic." Honestly this comes off as: give me a pat on the back, I don't hate ships just because other fans give them a bad reputation.

This photo is kind of disturbing

I agree with this. One of the characters can be easily interpreted as albino, which affects all races, last names can be explained by intermarriage or *gasp* the very common choice of changing a last name to appear more white, which is really, really common in the US. I think Hussy tried to create a blank slate, but people jumped on him because they wanted to assume he was racist. The characters are literally- literally- white. As in the color white. The blending of all colors. Stop trying to create this idea that because you want to target the guy as racist, it automatically makes him racist.

If you haven't seen it, OP, I highly recommend trying to get your hands on the season 3 Muppet Show DVDs for the old special Jim Henson did on puppetry. He talks about making puppets and performing and historical puppets and different techniques. It's easy to say "he was just a puppeteer" but really, he was an artist. There's an episode of Great Performances about him where he's shown talking about how he could stand perfectly visible while playing Kermit, and be talking without trying to do any ventriloquism and people would still naturally talk to Kermit "because who cares about the guy with the beard?" That's art. And he was passionate about his art because it brought people joy.

That sounds like a good role model/motivational source to me.

I have to date witnessed (by which I mean saw posted or was linked to, no copypasta without source) the following, boiled down to their distilled stupid:

A. DIRK ISN'T A REAL HOMOSEXUAL, YOU JUST TACKED THAT ON HUSSIE!

B. WHY DID YOU MAKE THE ONLY GAY HUMAN A FUCKING PONYFAG, THAT'S SOME BULLSHIT

C. WAIT, SO NOW HE'S BI? (After the shades bit came to light) GODDAMNIT YOU COULDN'T HAVE A REAL HOMOSEXUAL COULD YOU?

Capped for the screaming rage of social justice.

On point #2, re; bitch - you should do a little research. Yes, bitch is a sexist word.

As someone who has a real disorder, what I hate about the autism-fans is the attitude that by saying they have autism everyone should start treating them with kid gloves, or bowing to their special-ness. I'm sorry, but some of us have fought long and fucking hard not to have the world coddle us. Every "I'm an aspie, be nice to me" asshole sets the disabled rights cause back near twenty years. It's the same with the trigger warning fetishizers, we've fought not to be wrapped in cotton wool, but to be treated as equals no matter what.

So no, no I won't cut autism fans slack, or try to insulate trauma recoverer's in cotton wool. I'll treat them like any other person, because that is the equality we fought for, that is the dignity that was hard won.

Eh well by the same token nobody is forcing you to share your artwork on the internet either
I'm not saying it's okay for people to be mean, just that if you're going to draw you have to have somewhat thicker skin

If you don't have a problem with Homer abusing alcohol, why do you have a problem with Cletus's wife using a bong?

I lose respect for people when they treat people differently because they have a mental illness, so I don't really mind if you dislike me.

So we're even...?

I too have a sort of blind love for her. She could probably sing, I don't know, Bieber songs and I'd enjoy it.

Oddly, it's exactly opposite for Finn and Rachel. The hate is strong for those two.

Bag over your head. Gross.

Just tacked that on? The very first thing we ever found out about the guy when he was introduced two years ago was that his house was full of homoerotic overendowed puppets. This is really news to people?

[identity profile] mskye.livejournal.com 2012-01-26 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
Haters gonna hate, man. Just do what makes yourself happy.

Doesn't it depend on the situation? As someone who struggles with a couple of issues (which could be worse, as my family history is a hot bed of mental problems. At least I don't have severe social anxiety, epilepsy, ADHD, and am not bi-polar! Seriously, the vast majority of people in my family have been certified for these things and more. So I am relatively normal!), I never bring up my behavior as a 'excuse'. I will make it into a joke with people who notice (such as my obsessive touching every one of my finger tips in order until they 'feel' right), or mention it when giving people support if they are suffering from the same issues. In my blog I haven't mentioned my issues yet, and if I do make a post it will be to raise awareness rather than to excuse dickish behavior (because that shit don't fly).

If they are actually using it to excuse their behavior, then that is bad. Now, if they are using it as a explanation in conjunction with a apology then I don't see the bad in that, as long as it is in the form of 'it's not you, it's me'. I have had to apologize in the past for some of the things I did because of my own problems, and I will usually mention them- not to excuse or get out of anything, but to explain that it is my problem on this and I will try to do better.

So yeah. I am giving you the benefit of the doubt in that you are only talking about people who use it as a excuse. If you mean it otherwise, then saying 'no one should mention their issues ever' is frankly unrealistic and feeding into shame culture. Because people aren't perfect, and sometimes they like to get things off their chest. *shrugs*

This is kind of the opposite of pathetic, as I see it. You have a strength of love that cannot be derailed no matter how many idiots try to ruin it. Go you!

I want to! I was going to take it this last term, and then my stupid schedule didn't fit. D:

But, I shall prevail! And take it next term, or so help me...!

Not gross, human. Sometimes those two can get confused, I understand.
