Hi I’m Phantom

image

I go by any pronouns (including Neopronouns).

I’m a writer and most of my writing will be under #my writing or #phantom does a thing. Here’s a link to my Ao3 which is my pride and joy.

Any writing advice/prompts will go here @lettherebewrit3 go give it a follow I never advertise sideblogs

My current interests: JRWI (mostly PD and BITB), fnaf (ask me about it I dare you), probably other horror games (I really really like horror) and probably other things.

I’ll mostly be posting about jrwi tho since I don’t really post about other things but yeah so that’s all you need to know.

If you wanna know anything else my ask box is always open and I love talking to people. Feel free to DM me like ever I am awkward but I love talking w people.

@strawberri-syrup <- my biggest fan and also I need a quick link to his blog

I mean I think people should curate their own fandom experience and whatnot and it's perfectly fair to just avoid things one is uncomfortable with...

That being said. From personal experience? Immunizing myself to all my discomforts by browsing through pixiv and kink memes with raised eyebrows while searching for things I am interested in back when tagging was non-existent has really made my fandom experience much more pleasant nowadays.

I have preferences, for sure. But I have no fear. I have no cringe. The filthiest, grossest fanwork holds no powers over me. I am a god.

Like honestly dl;dr and block on sight is respectable and all but I genuinely think everyone could just benefit from purposefully exposing yourself to your nOTP and non-triggering squicks sometimes? (And obviously don't go bother the creators for it.) If only so that it makes it easier/safer to search for content you like without living in fear of accidentally glimpsing something you hate and having that ruin your day.

Training oneself to be comfortable with mild discomfort is a highly under-rated skill in this day and age

I think its interesting that "desensitized" is a dirty word now. Like...when I did my therapy, being desensitized was the GOAL. It was the fucking dream.

But also, desensitization essentially gives you the agency to say, "okay so that felt bad, now I can either put it away, really explore and understand what that discomfort is trying to tell me, or discard it." Idk...some of yall are so fucking distressed all the time and you call it "being normal" or "being a decent human being" but...it isn't normal to be distressed all the time. It isn't decent to be distressed all the time. And like...I have disords and chemical shit going on in my brain but if you don't have all that....I think you need to look at your distress and ask why it is actually enduring and who benefits from you being distressed (lessons from a pre-bush era american).

i think popular media culture is poisoned in the following ways:

  • if you like something, people will make fun of you because you have admitted to experiencing a sincere emotion. this makes people defensive about what they like.
  • if you don’t like something, people will take your opinion personally and attack you. this makes people feel like they have to have a very good reason to dislike something.
  • people reach for reasons to like vs dislike things that are serious and often politically relevant so they can defend themselves from other opinion-havers.
  • these positions mutually reinforce each other until it is assumed that any declaration of liking or disliking something is both personally and politically relevant by default.
  • i am forced to look at this every time one of my fandom posts blows up.
