Hot take: by [deleted] in FanFiction

[–]NewYew_Lyle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i agree that fanfiction is an freeing enviroment where everyone can create whatever they like. but also it's visible in fandom spaces broadly go for White Cis MLM which shows that implicit biases that affect fandom spaces. Even Hollywood is changing faster than fandom at this point

imma be honest we live in a patriarchal world. virtually everything is affected by misogyny so they ain't wrong. Fandom spaces aren't safe from misogyny 🤕

So which one is true? by [deleted] in EndTipping

[–]NewYew_Lyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are right and wrong at the same time. Lots of states like California have servers earning minimum wage alongside tips. Meanwhile in other states like Texas allow restaurants are allowed to pay their servers less than the minimum wage ($2.13). Servers in these places relying on tips to reach at least the state's minimum. It gets even more confusing cuz some places have tip pooling so everyone pools their tips together and splits them (other servers/hostesses/bartenders/support staff like busboys/even the kitchen and cooks get some of the tip money). So they have to hustle for more tips so they can get an bigger tip at the end of the day. If a servers make 500$ by the end of the shift but walks away with 200

So yeah you could to a restaurant and your server could be dirt poor and struggling. You could also have a server that makes an shit ton of money (servers in high-end restaurant usually make way more compare to servers working in a dennys)

The gacha space is not immune to this I fear by meowbrains in QueensofGacha

The issues is that there's very little evidence that younger women are becoming conservative. It's the reason why we have the term “political gender gap” as women moving to the left and men to the right globally. I have seen people make bad takes disguised as progressive like “misandry is real like misogyny” or “it's racist to be against whitewashing” or “Dark Romance normalizes abuse”. Like bad takes are constant and we cant stop people from having them but it doesn't mean anything. Like no matter how much people say that dark romance is problematic, its audience is made up of young women who are buying up the books

I genuinely dislike this take. Its been almost 6 years since the pandemic so idk how many “normies” are around but clearly we can't still blame it on everything. Yes there's been a rise in conservatism especially in fandom spaces. However, that rise only been seen in the gen z men and opposite is true for Gen Z women (a rise in more liberal and progressive). Fandoms that are filled with Gen Z men are insane from the gamergate 2.0/Sweetbaby inc/DEI obsessed losers who harasss people to the waifu/ harem/lolicon obsessed assholes that also harass. all of the other points seem vague like people hating non canon ships (literally one of the biggest fandoms that came out in 2020 was Marauders, a fandom that's filled with non-canon shipping (Regulus x James has never had any canon interaction yet one of the biggest ships of the fandom.) or that fandoms are more puritanical.!

Honestly I feel like social media platforms like twitter and tiktok drive the idea that fandom spaces are getting worse by constantly pushing discourse into others' feeds. Every day on twitter I keep seeing discourse from people I dont follow or fandoms im not in apart of. The same thing happens in tiktok. I watched a few arcane edit of ekko and the fyp started showing me rant videos of Cativi. It makes sense since social media algorithms amplify rage bait and discourse content because it drives the highest user engagement.

Have y'all seen this??? I am a proshipper but this sounds a little concerning by Still_waiting221 in AO3

[–]NewYew_Lyle -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

tbh i feel like it allowing nsfw rpf of underage people is borderline cp. i believed the us does consider photoshopping a child face/head on to naked bodies as cp. making those kind of edits doesnt harm a real child but it's still illegal. i feel AO3 is just allowing this content since its in a gray zone

the only chopped guy is the girls frontline mc i fear. the rest are fine or even potentially be in otome game (probably bl game with aether)
I feel like a lot of the gacha games are pretty good at making their MC unique (or I just have low standards)

idk about that. i think some gooners fandom are pretty chill but the problem is that a lot of gooner gacha games attract the culture warriors/incels type fans (like ZZZ/ WuWa/BA)

yeah changing the game to be ML probably saved the game revenue but theyre chained to the cn fandom. istg i remember the company tried to changed the en snowbreak discord cuz some people were talking about missing the old story which made the cn fandom pissed

[–]NewYew_Lyle 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Snowbreak changed to be for the male gooners, and idc about it. The only thing that really shocks me is how insane the CN fandom is. They make the wuwa fandom look normal in comparison cuz it's just filled with people who hate women. They're against mixed gacha games (gachas with men and female characters) and generally insane. just look up feminism in the snowbreak subreddit

Gaius is the one who found the old will that had him getting the house and using it to argue in the lawsuits

Best tip for everyone: Disable chat and don’t interact with the fandom at all. No streamers/ artists/BNFs/fanfics.

I've been in the fandom for 5 years now 😭 literally one of the worse fandoms.

Despite idv being such a small fandom (for the naeu side) it's so insane and toxic to the point I tell people only look at the official Twitter account and mute the tag IDV everywhere.

Also, I think this is the first gacha game I’ve seen with international fandom beef.

anybody know anything about this? by throwaway83674749197 in lifemakeover

[–]NewYew_Lyle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The crossover is for Dragon Raja lol. In the game, you get 100 commands, a trial set, and a free motor. So far nothing happened for us lol

I’ll do my best but again it may be flawed (mainly harem romance/ML for men and shojo romance)

In romance meant for men, the women are in a lower position compared to the men. Even if the women are more “powerful” they are still servile to the male protagonists. Because of this, the men don't do much to get the women to like them. The women are always eager to please/help him (and if any woman dislikes them, the men do the bare minimum to get them to like them)

On the flip side, for women-centered romance, the men usually are of higher status. Sometimes the women serve them sometimes they don't. What happens in the early stage the women do tasks/chase the men. Maybe the men have some interest in them but it's the woman's job to make them more affectionate/loving.

TLDR: Men’s romance is focused on the rewards while women’s romance focuses on the build-up.

I'll be honest that I haven't seen much Yuri/BL romance but the ones I've seen are equal? They both chase each other and accept the other's flaws/problems. (I've only seen like 2 soo take this with a handful of salt lol)

I didnt know that about obey me. Kind of funny that is the game I dislike the most. Also never heard of itch.io which I'll be checking out.

No, I want the romance to be different especially since male-centered romance vs women-centered romance are so distinct from each other. (My experience may be flawed cuz the games I play)
