The Seven Percent Solution

This actually made my day. I’m still fucking laughing.

Our descent further into insanity is almost at an en— well, paused for the moment. If Season 4 has a 3 year hiatus, whilst I understand from a logical perspective considering the massive rise in Martin and Benedict’s profiles, the far-too-old-for-this fangirl-shit perspective will be screaming bloody murder.

So, in light of recent events I felt the urge to make this. I usually dislike these fandom rules posts a great deal, because, seriously? Don’t fucking tell me how to enjoy my fandom. But I think I came up with some that actually should be common sense, but apparently are not. Well then…

DO NOT FUCKING COMMENT ON LGBTQ ISSUES JUST TO MAKE A SILLY INANE QUIP ABOUT YOUR OTP/SHIP!

This is so disgustingly disrespectful towards the people who actually struggle with discrimination and resentment from society every fucking day of their live!

Just let that sink in please. You take a real issue where real people have real problems that are actually hurting them physically and mentally, some people even get killed, because of their sexual orientation or gender expression for fucks sake and you take that issue and comment on that with an unwitty one-liner about your favourite fictional character.

Just no. Don’t.

DO NOT POST/REBLOG/LINK TO THE PICTURE OF BENEDICT WITH AMANDA’S AND MARTIN’S KIDS AND DO NOT POST/REBLOG/LINK TO THE VIDEO OF BEN DANCING TO THRILLER!

Amanda and Martin want to keep their kids out of the public and never gave their ok for this photo to be taken or to be published. The Bakerstreet Babes made a really neat little post about this that is really handy to reblog when the picture is circulating again. It also has more background information.

The video of Ben was a private one that was taken and published when Olivia Poulet’s facebook account was hacked. I don’t even have words for how tasteless this whole thing is. People also made a bunch of reaction gifs from it and yeah, just, if you know about this and still fucking use them I have no idea what kind of person you are.

I do realise that a lot of people new to the fandom don’t know any of this. I didn’t know any of this when I was new. So, if you do see someone reblogging any of these, ask them NICELY to take them down. Seriously, just be goddamn polite!

If they refuse to do so though on grounds of whatever fucking inanity they come up with be as dickish as you like. Really, just go to town. I don’t care.

Also, as a general rule I wouldn’t post any pictures that look as if they were taken by paparazzi anyway and if I have to explain to you why wow… really????

How about have a little respect for the privacy of a fellow human being???

DO NOT FUCKING REPOST OTHER PEOPLE’S ART! REBLOG FROM THE FUCKING SOURCE AND IF YOU DON’T HAVE A SOURCE DON’T POST IT FOR FUCKS SAKE!

I will not go into detail why you shouldn’t do this. Google it if you want to know why and just trust me that artists don’t appreciate it when you fuck around with their work in any way without asking them first.

Also, if you wanna argue with this point by saying artists should be grateful that you like their art so much and they should be happy with any kind of exposure, wow, you aren’t rude at fucking all, are you?!

ONE ADDITIONAL LITTLE THING TO THIS RULE!

If you do reblog art from the source, as you should, don’t be a dick and remove the artist’s comment without asking first. It’s probably there for a reason.

DO NOT BE AN ENTITLED LITTLE SHIT TOWARDS FANARTISTS AND WRITERS!!! SERIOUSLY! WHY DO I EVEN NEED TO POINT THIS OUT????

I see this all the fucking time all over my dash in asks and comments and you have no idea how fucking angry it makes me. People outright DEMANDING updates on fanfiction or fancomics and complaining about a lack of updates and wondering how the authors DARE to not publish anything.

Are you fucking kidding me??? Be thankful for the things these people already created for you FOR FREE IN THEIR FREE TIME WITHOUT MONETARY REWARD.

You nagging and bullying them will also surely speed up their creative process.

Good things take time and god fucking dammit have a little patience.

WOAH HOLY FUCK ISN’T IT INTERESTING HOW ALL THESE RULES BOIL DOWN TO “DON’T BE A FUCKIGN RUDE DICKHEAD!”

P.S.: IF YOU WERE OFFENDED BY ANY OF THIS - GOOD! BECAUSE THAT MEANS YOU PROBABLY ARE ONE OF THE LITTLE ASSHOLES WHO DOES SOME OF THE SHIT MENTIONED ABOVE AND I COULDN’T CARE LESS ABOUT YOUR FEE FEES!

Sit down and think about how you can be a better person and you’ll be good. No one’s above making mistakes and everyone’s a stupid little shit sometimes. If you refuse to change tho and be respectful towards others, that’s a problem and makes you a pretty big asshole.

the photo that brought a fandom to its knees

Guise? Guise … calm yo tits, yeah? They’re not ‘filming’ early. They’re getting production ready for the scheduled March filming. Of course you’re going to start set building, wardrobe and the million other things a couple of months before you’re set to start shooting.

Exciting? Yes. But be excited for the right reason. Please calm down.

Thank.
