Clown Center

first post kinda nervous… I drew this like a month ago tehe

I love arkco.

Them stargazing means everything

“Yall are really fixated on this Spider-Man situation, and i love it!”

“I’m Spider-Megan :)”

not now kitten, mommy needs to get up off her ass and overcome her fear of writing poorly because it's better than not writing at all.

they’re like if domestic AUs were real

Ts is the biggest domesticbait i've ever seen. Ya think it's real cute little domestic bliss scenes but then you get hit in the face by the horrors holding an unkissed brick >:"(((

If gnomes were real I’d kill them for pleasure. But I would not do this dwarves, who I respect.

I also ☝️ think it's important to tell the difference between "the author's barely-disguised fetish" and "the audience member's unrealised kink that they're projecting onto the author because seeing a character tied up is making them feel funny in their Audience Member Parts"

having a headache while hydrated is so unfair. you were supposed to protect me.

I just saw a video of a man offering to review 'small authors' if they send him a $200 deposit, an $800 payment for a video review, and the free book atop that.

Do NOT pay for reviews. Do NOT pay for reviews. Do NOT pay for reviews.

The AUDACITY of those prices. Oh my gosh.

To add to this, I've also seen sites that offer paid reviews using AI chatbots to generate said reviews after being paid.

Hey so last night I was really drunk and I inverted your dog. yeah he's now everything he once wasn't, and no part of him is retained from his former self. But you can see glimpses of what he once was in the reflection of what he's become so thats cool.

unfortunately i dont think its queerbaiting if the creator is just so terminally heterosexual that they never remotely considered the same gender relationship their show is centered around could be read as romantic. it is deeply painful however.

Maybe accidental queer baiting? The way someone may not mean to say something rude, but it may come off rude, so it's rude. Frustrating either way.

Not being a dick, just a friendly clarification.

By definition you can't accidentally queerbait. Queerbaiting is specifically using a same sex pair from the show to market the show to queer audiences with no intention of ever following through on a romantic relationship.

There is officially licensed Destiel merch signed off on by Kripke. Teen Wolf had a commercial with the actors for Derek and Stiles draped over each other talking about being "on a ship." Both shows actively used scenes between them as marketing while actively mocking fans for wanting them together. Sherlock has multiple characters refer to Johnlock as a couple, including characters we're supposed to believe are never wrong about human behavior and pushed those scenes in marketing. Then they acted insulted when fans saw them as a couple.

That's queerbaiting.

Done on accident it would just be queer subtext. Done because they had no other choice due to censorship is queer coding.

The specific meaning of the word is really starting to get lost and it's a pretty important one to keep accurate. It describes a very specific phenomenon that was done repeatedly and maliciously for decades and is meant to examine that specifically.

Doing it on accident sucks, but it isn't a tactic of capitalism intentionally intended to suppress queer representation while making money from queer fans.

Reblogging to keep the accurate definition and examples of queerbaiting circulating in the world

Good news. we can finally Be Bees. this isn't your world, but we can Be Bees. this is Good news. you can Be a Bee. you'll live like a Bee. A Pet. A pet? A Pet. Mark, this is Good news. You'll live. for 30 years. THIS IS INSANE

oh my god it hurts

and it's going to hurt forever

every now and then I see people passing screencaps of these posts around, and in the months after I made this post there were people checking in on me assuming I was going through grief or depression or something

to set the record straight, the context is that I had covid and was bleeding from my throat and lungs, but for some ungodly reason, I was feverishly driven to drink lemonade and kept screaming and writhing because I was pouring fizzy lemon juice on open throat wounds

everyone's speculating on whether I was vitamin C or iron deficient or something, but I'm gonna be so real with you: I just wanted lemonade, which I had around because I often do

oh I did. they weren't as bad

It seems like we're just feeding characters to Miss Piggy at this point

literally the worst way of ending a series is “all the survivors are happily straight married with tons and tons of babies!” 

people still getting mad at this post i made in 2014 so I will add here. in 2026. that the point of this post isn’t “happy endings bad” its when the story’s only way to imagine a happy ending is a heterosexual nuclear family for everyone.
