I'm all for accommodating others and all but if you don't warn me before hand and you flip on me. You will hate me by the time I'm done laying back in to you.
wait ok now i’m curious how old were you when you joined tumblr and how old are you now
I remember as a kid getting annoyed that there were so many love and breakup and lust songs out there, and turning to my mother one day and asking why was that the only thing the singers ever talked about, and if they couldn't sing about other things, like cars. My mother told me I was just too young to understand, but tbh, I think I should have realized then I was aroace lol
it is true that there are a lot of songs about romance though!
....the way i was over the moon when i discovered songs about social, political, parental issues and songs about friends
I was like heck yeah, music that's not about love?!
diet culture people make me feel like i’m going crazy. you want me to take an experimental pill that destroys my appetite?? you want me to remove part of my stomach??? you want me to stop eating bread and rice, two of the staple foods most inherent to humanity????? why exactly? because my stomach is big? because you don’t like the way i look, and you think it’s reasonable to tell me to carve pieces off of myself and try random drugs and ruin my own life so i can look more visually pleasing to you? and you somehow don’t see how absurdly cruel and selfish that is to ask of somebody???? while pretending you care about their HEALTH????????????????? FUCK YOU!!!!
Not all venom fans are monster fuckers 😞 some of us are just aroace disasters who like the idea of a platonic soulmate who likes to murder annoying people for you, is that so bad?

We got you, OP.
collection of posts for a very specific dynamic
"being queer is about love" hmm actually being queer is about defying societal norms about gender and sexuality and does not depend on feeling love at all

If you send me an ask containing links to Good Omens fan fiction you think I should read, I'll delete it. Do it again and I'll (regretfully) block you. This is a general blanket sort of thing -- I don't want to read it, legally I can't read it, no I won't make it into the next series, and, no matter how pure your motives, it's crossing a line.
I’m reading a lot of baffled responses to this. People, I’m showrunning and co-writing the Good Omens TV series. I can’t legally read unsolicited plot ideas. Think of Netflix. Their terms of service include
8.2. Unsolicited Materials. Netflix does not accept unsolicited materials or ideas for Netflix content and is not responsible for the similarity of any of its content or programming in any media to materials or ideas transmitted to Netflix.
…and you’ll find similar clauses out there for other production entities. They are trying to safeguard themselves. There are people out there who are certain that a hit film or TV series is based on their stolen idea. The easiest way to avoid that is to make sure that their ideas can’t get to you.
It’s nothing to do with not approving of what you do. It’s about not putting me, the producers, the BBC or Prime Video at risk — or about having to throw away plans for the future because someone did that in fanfiction first. I can’t legally read unsolicited scripts or story proposals or manuscripts and sending me a link to your or someone else’s Good Omens fiction counts as those things. If I read your story and then did something close to it you could sue. So I’m not going to read it. There’s no emotional baggage in this. I’m definitely not telling you that what you are doing isn’t valid. (And If I wasn’t showrunning I wouldn’t be so Please Don’t and I Will Delete about it. But I am. So don’t. Thank you!)
Reminder that "By Any Means Necessary," one of the best episodes of Babylon 5, nearly didn't get made because some fan suggested a similar idea (a workers' strike on the space station, dealing with workers' safety and labor issues at a time when Star Trek: TNG was still on the air).
I can't remember how far along the episode was in production — I think a rough draft of the script had been written —but showrunner J. Michael Straczynski had to pull the plug on the episode until they finally tracked down the fan who'd suggested a "workers' strike" story on Usenet and get legal documents signed that the fan wouldn't sue or ask for a cut of the proceeds. AND the documents had to be watertight enough that Warner Bros' legal dept was satisfied all financial/legal risk had been eliminated. In other words, it wasn't up to JMS to make the call.
Sadly, after that, he could no longer participate in the old Babylon 5 Usenet discussion list, where he used to interact directly with fans, answering questions. It was just safer if he stayed away, because that way nobody could accuse him of lifting ideas for the show. We don't want Neil to have to pull back for the same reason.
A lot of creators avoid social media for the same reason. Those that are here @neil-gaiman , @dduane , have a hard and fast rule not to look at unasked solicitations.
And now that Babylon 5 might get a reboot, JMS has issued a similar request:
Reblogging for people who think I'm overreacting or whatever.
This is all very true and reasonable but god I miss submission-based spec script shows
From @duckland:
#guys#can you all stop being weird#and leave the good sir alone#so maybe MAYBE we can all enjoy him being here and teach us stuff and nice pictures of his Evening walks
Yeah, I keep picturing him, sitting with his head on his desk and crying.
I get the need for the younger gen or newer fans to do this but seriously stop. Like the previous posters have said and adding on - When you tag the creators they are under NDA. Its highly likely they already had idea to create something with very similar vibes or ideas. (Not one to one then I would argue for problems) Not only are you HIGH chancing making certain ideas not come to fruition, you are going to get them in trouble. Take what you can get from creators and QnA's. Stop demanding them to give you the feed. Go back to the old days where you just did things and ignore need to have your creators verify and accept your own canons.
I love your profile pic 😊
