I fuck with Proship Pony
Dear god please
This is the magic lucky word count. Reblog for creativity juice. It might even work, who knows.
Just went on a MASSIVE block purge in the anti ship tag and, honestly? I had to scroll quite a bit to find anti shippers.
Most of it was my fellow Proshipers and some people constantly begging to do a survey. Maybe being an anti IS really small. At least on Tumblr.
A looooong time ago (6 months ago), I created a character with vitiligo. Only, I didn't fully understand how vitiligo worked. I knew of the loss of melon, I knew of the extra spicy sunburns, and I kinda knew something about the eyes getting bad. But for some unknown reason, I assumed that it could work in reverse.
I created a character who had hyperpigmentation Vitiligo. This does exist! But not in the way I made it. So recently after finding out that Uncle Rufus from the Bondadooks was lying about revitiligo, I decided 'Oh shit. I gotta fix my boy!'
So I changed him from having hyperpigmentation to universal vitiligo, did my best to change every bit of misinformation I had in his bio.
Before when I had the information wrong, people (antis) praised me for my representation. Now that I've updated the bio to be more accurate, I am being told I didn't have to create a character whose sole purpose was to be whitewashed.
...
Man, I either live knowing I was horribly misrepresenting a group and getting praised by those who don't have it or I live being harassed for whitewashing a character who was white from the beginning by people who don't have it.
Talking about being a fanfiction writer to my friends is so hard because all I FUCKING here is 'I can't think of any fandoms with legal characters off the top of my head!'
And I have to hold back my whole life not to say shit.
I SWEAR TO GOD IF MY FRIEND LOUDLY FUCKING SAYS 'OH YOU'RE A PROSHIPPER, YOU LOVE INCEST' IN FUCKING PUBLIC ONE MORE TIME I WILL LOUDLY TALK ABOUT HER 'INFACTUATION' WITH FOXES AND SEE HOW SHE LIKES IT
I'm starting to ship Alastor and Rosie after making my self insert date the both of them. I'm cucking myself
I *would* since I did find out mildly from him as well, but he's weirdly 'anti-woke' and so I wasn't entirely comfortable adding him.
Guys let's spread around content creators who follow Proship ideologies so we can have a positive outlet and find more creators that won't randomly make us pull out our hair :D
I'll start with two:
ColeyDoesThings - Her whole channel is talking about fanfiction and AO3. She's very open about the fact she's ship and let ship and antis complain a LOT about the fact she is. Supportive of Wincest and Mpreg although I can't remember if she personally likes them.
Manlybadasshero - He's said he won't stop playing The Coffin of Andy and Leyley even though people are upset about the incest. He doesn't agree with the harassment the creator has received and agrees that the worst thing a game can be is boring. (To see that just watch his TCOAAL playthrough, he says it much better himself!)
What I find especially funny is that very specifically, it's impossible. Every creator that has tried to do this only FURTHER invited Proshipers over. Make it obvious you're a dumb dumb, the people you hate are marching in.
Oh Honey…
That’s… That’s Just Not Possible.
I’m Not Even Trying To Be Mean.
I Genuinely Don’t Think That’s Possible.
We Are Everywhere.
For Every AntiShipper, There Is A ProShipper.
Here's a fun Problematic Ship Tumblr game for me (or anyone interested in joining) to do.
You, *taps* YES! You! In the comments, I want you to put two emojis together - ANY COMBO! It could mean something like 🍖 🌈 or it could just be your favorite emojis like 🐝🫶 or it can be the weirdest most specific emojis that you personally feel would be near impossible to make into a character like 🫚🕕. K? Any emoji combo, put them in the comments. This will be character one.
Now you, *pokes* yeah, you! You're gonna respond to the first comment with another set of emojis. Could be the first two emojis that show up in your last used like 🕕🫚, it could be two emojis you didn't even know existed like 🎆〽️, or it could be emojis that are used often like 😔❤️. K? Just take two emojis and respond to the first guy. This will be character two.
Now, finally, one last guy- You! *Grabs* You will respond to the emoji people describing what makes the above characters problematic! Maybe you could say something simple and common like 'Oh yeah, 🍖 🌈 and 🕕🫚are cousins!" It could be something that isn't actually problematic, but Antis make it problematic like "🐝🫶 and 🎆〽️ are best friends from childhood!" Or you can go really specific like "😔❤️ is a teen shota/loli who just got into sophomore year and 🫚🕕 is the gym teacher who is also actually their aunt/uncle who is abusive and grooming them." Just take something problematic to antis and SLAP it onto the emojis. K?
Now finally, it will be up to ME- Or you know, anyone else who just gets a creative spark from the prompt- To draw them! I'll probably make a mini reference sheet, I'll draw them to their lore! I'll maybe draw them into a normal couple! I'll maybe name them idk, and best of all? I'll perchance write them their own lil story and background and shit! Yay, yay, yippee! Then we can all gather around and laugh and feel amused.
Huzzah! Please leave your emojis in the comments >:) I might add my own emoji combos if I feel like it. And feel free to add as many emojis combos as you'd like, idc I just wanna draw Problematic couples.
How we feeling today, purple cat bus?
Hungry
My hand hurts from drawing
My thumbs hurt from typing
I have an unpopped pimple that hurted
Today has been the best day of this year :)
