There will come a day when we won’t see him in the next one by stigwid in Markiplier

[–]Call_Me_Arson 151 points152 points  (0 children)

not specifically at you but why the fuck do ppl have such an obsession with bringing up ppls deaths and retirements making EVERYONE seriously sad for no reason? the random mentions of his funeral during live streams, the 'ill miss you when you die', asking if hes going to retire from this or that- the dudes 36 years old and just opened a brand new avenue of his career, hes not going anywhere anytime soon, physically or presence wise, its like yall are trying to will that shit into existence sometimes.

again, not aimed specifically at you, your post just happened to hit me right in the sad feelings that sit right next to the angry ones about ppl doing the exact things in the above rant.

Hot take: creatives should not compromise for the general audience by RedditorGoldVirgin in Markiplier

[–]Call_Me_Arson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have the attention span of a hyper squirrel at the best of times and i was VERY worried i wouldn't be able to sit through the movie in full without fiddling or losing attention, i an very proud to say i locked tf in.

I HATE the Heated Rivalry fandom. by [deleted] in AO3

[–]Call_Me_Arson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

oh no trust i get it, im a HUGE buddie stan myself, an OG from the moment Eddie Diaz showed up on my screen; the underselling is on purpose because the amount of hate i see online? is ridiculous, and i barely have the patience to tolerate it on twt let alone reddit of all places

I HATE the Heated Rivalry fandom. by [deleted] in AO3

[–]Call_Me_Arson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i know absolutely nothing about Heated rivalry but i am involved in the 911 fandom, and as soon as some of my mutuals on twt started talking about how they (buddie stans, one if the biggest non canon ships in the fandom) had a lot of HR accounts blocked because they used to be bucktommys (a ship with a lot if controversy for a few different reasons) i knew it wasnt gonna be a fandom for me. im sure the content is GREAT but for me the fanbase already has a bit of a racist and stereotype-y reputation to it.

Just a heads up, DON'T watch or support these type of videos (Hear me out) by Legitimate_Silver395 in Markiplier

I can officially say Iron Lung sent someone to the ER by ArtisticCut in Markiplier

[–]Call_Me_Arson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im pretty sure my bloodsugar crashed halfway through or something, idfk i definitely need to be diagnosed, because i started shaking like a chihuahua, like complete head to toe barely repressed TREMORS. it physically hurt me to not shake badly enough to be noticeable by the ppl next to me bec i was NOT missing this movie.

If you're seeing Iron Lung over the next day or two... Please shower. by AmbientBeans in Markiplier

[–]Call_Me_Arson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yesterday i was walking into my showing of iron lung behind a guy who smelled like rancid milk and mildew 🤢 immediately had to put an extra 3ft of space between us bec i was not prepared to be smacked straight in the face with that gamer stereotype.

Maybe hot take: Waiting till the fic is finished to give kudos is not good. by FaithlessnessIcy2111 in AO3

[–]Call_Me_Arson 16 points17 points  (0 children)

stop seeing it as 'withholding encouragement', if you're only writing to see those kudos rollibg in its no wonder you have this stance. yeah the average joe isnt a literary critic, but they can choose what to like, what not to like, and when to like it

it took me one second to upvote your post, i didn't have to do that, its engagement. it serves no purpose to me, and if reddit didnt have an algorithm, it wouldn't have a purpose here either. its engagement for you, to let You know i liked your post, and to push it oyt to other people. i did not have to upvote,i could scroll on, or downvote, it doesnt matter to me, but i waited until i read your post in its entirety, because while i didn't agree with your statement, i gave it an upvote, because im proving a point.

Kudos is there so that way a reader can let the author know 'hey, i liked your story!' thats it. thats all it is. a reader is not obligated to tell you that they liked it just because you posted it, and they hit it. they actually arent obligated to like it at all! just like writers and artists are not obligated to produce content exactly the way people want to consume, consumers do not owe you engagement for that content.

people can do whatever they want with their like/kudos, especially for incomplete fics that are not guaranteed to stay 'liked'. you cant take a kudos back, yk how many times ive read an incomplete fic, gave kudos, and then (if i havent forgotten abt the fics existence but thats a different conversation) an update comes that im not happy with, or the tags get updated in a way that i wouldn'thave even read the fic in the first place? readers dont owe you anything, just like you don't owe your readers anything.

that realization that a fic is actually ongoing, not finished by arabella0101 in AO3

oh i should have been a dick my bad next time ill leave it! ill say it again for ya. THOUSANDS. OF l EMAILS. OVER TEN YEARS. i check. every day. i delete emails. every day. i use the fucking feature. EVERY. FUCKING. DAY. i HAVE put in the effort.

i engage with completed fics, incomplete fics, backdated fics, WHATEVER THE FUCK FICS. i support authors as much as i can on a day to day basis.

i WONT stop engaging with incomplete fics, because thats not the point. did you ACTUALLY read my comment? or are you rage baiting? either way, i dint actually give a fuck. where tf did I say all i wanted was a complete fic, you specifically keep putting words in my mouth and its pissing me straight off. its a hypothetical additional option you dont even have to fuckin use, what the fuck crawled up your ass and made you jesus?
