i’m supposed to believe that bella is smarter than most kids her age just because she’s picked up a jane austen novel? she’s the most intellectually un-curious person ever!!!! she’s DROWNING in primary sources and IGNORES THEM for the most part!!!!!! does she have any idea how many historians would kill to have even a 10-minute conversation with carlisle “born in the 17th century” cullen??????
My whole time reading this series was „Bella what the fuck trade places with me so I can interrogate them all at length do you know how much I would give to talk to Siobhan for ten minutes“
#I don't go to this fandom but my god I think about this all the time#that's one thing that I actually screamed when true blood did it right#grandma's little civil war ladies group wanting guest speaker bill lmao#me with any and all immortalish characters:#TELL ME EVERYTHING#doctor#castiel#cullens#bill compton#spike#:D:D#etc#scuroqueue

not to feel positively about tumblr in 2020 but the tag function really is like. the thing they got right, huh? i love reading ppl’s little notes and organizational systems and i particularly like it when ppl speak to me directly in the tags to be like. “raquel you complete asshole i love this thing you’ve done i’m crying and i hate you.” i thrive on the quiet validation it fuels me

me as a writer: Oh no I can’t write that, somebody else already has
me as a reader: hell yes give me all the fics about this one scenario. The more the merrier
This one is so hard to accept. Reblogging to knock that into my brain.
Me as a writer: I feel like I’m repeating myself, I’ve already used that theme, I’ve already written that kink, that other character uses that speech pattern so this one in another fandom can’t, I feel like I’m writing predictable things, is this different enough from that other thing I wrote, are people filling out bingo cards by my work? :sobbing:
Me as a reader: oh hell yeah this hit the spot exactly, I hope this writer has written 20 more just like it
As one friend said when I felt I was reusing a theme too much, nobody ever says, Did Agatha Christie write about murder again?

I specifically described the plot to this one shot as “I, the writer, hurt this character physically and emotionally” so when I saw this comment, I was satisfied I had done my job well. I treasure every comment I receive, even ones that are two characters long.

we did all of this hamilton discourse in 2015!!!!!!! if you weren’t around for it then just know it happened and every take possible was had!!!!! go get some juice and log off
The 2015 Hamilton discourse got the point of one healthy able-bodied white american girl pretending to be a disabled middle eastern lesbian couple with HIV so that she could write a modern AU of Hamilton about HIV, who was then caught in the act by another fic writer who had a grudge against her because she’d attacked them for writing a Hamilton AU where the founding fathers are cannibalistic mermaids, and the reason she had attacked them for it was because somehow that was cultural appropriation.
Seriously. Whatever hot take you have about Hamilton, I promise you several dozen people already said it years ago, and if I have to see this shit again I’m going to throw myself into the fucking sun
If you want to know more, you can read about it on Fanlore

Reblogging for Doctorwhofest prompt: ‘’favourite accessory of the Doctor’s’’ - The water pistol.
To me it's like this. Word of god only counts when I like it. When it's bs (such as what you mentioned from rtd) I change my approach to "a tweet is not a valid source anyway" lol
Ha, exactly! (re: the tags on this post.) The whole relationship of canon and outside material to fandom and shipping and fic is really interesting to me. I could ramble on and on! :P (Can inspire, fuel the fire, make it last forever, make it fizzle, kill it dead...)
And I think in a similar way to that post, “Word of God” can have different levels. So, behind the scenes footage of RTD and Julie, et al, explaining choices made that bolster and enrich what we see on the screen is pretty weighty. Thus the reason the bts material for Doomsday or that incredibly shippy DW Confidential they did in series 1 is like:
But then the Confidential for G*TF is so extra infuriating for the same reason - not only does all that shit happen on the screen, but then there they are explaining how much they really meant to do that... 😒😒
A tweet about a silly idea that lived only in RTD’s head (I was referring to the one about Wilf being a descendent of Mm DPomp) and has no textual evidence whatsoever really doesn’t have any weight! (Also his tone is cheeky, so I think there’s no reason for anyone to take it seriously.) If it were a tweet I liked or made me laugh or whatever, I’d of course be plastering it all over my blog like gospel haha, but really falls in the category of lighthearted fannish things.
#scribbledpages#I watched part of that sidekick out of you confidential and now i'm all ahhhhh#forget any historical randos#this is where i live!#:D:D#i totally agree with neil gaiman about canon#it's *only* what's textual#everything else is Not Canonical#and then after a point it's all academic#cause we do what we want regardless#including popping together characters from different shows#but it still builds on the canon of each character...#it's a complex fascinating relationship eh?#csv meta#ask replies#rtd#uhhh#anti gitf#ha there should be an essay book called something like#the problem of gitf#for all of the great meta analyses that have been done over the years#there were worse ones in that twitter party which i'll also pfffffffft right into the sun#also should say that i am a huge fan of rtd but he's certainly not perfect in my eyes and i'm just as ready to discard bs if he says it :P

I did sign on immediately. I auditioned for Brian. I taped myself in a New York apartment on my iPhone. Sent my audition to Brian. He had a look at it, realized I was the cheapest option, met me. We got drunk and then he gave me the role. But I didn’t sleep with him. Regardless of what he might tell you later, I didn’t. (x)
