Look all around at the mountains you haven't climb

There is a problem we need to address in the Root/Shaw fandom, and that problem is called: comments by entitled assholes. Seriously, what is up with that?

This fandom used to be a safe space where people could write and draw and gif and not worry about being harassed or being told that their work is ‘gross’ or that they don’t update often enough or that this character Dick #1 doesn’t like should ‘fuck off and die already’. 

But nope, now every time I have a comment on a Root/Shaw fic I cringe because I’m afraid of what it’ll say. I used to be so happy to create for you nerds, and now I just…??? I’m constantly worried. And I know for a fact I’m not the only one.

You guys do realise when we write or create something it takes time and energy, right? And it comes from actual persons, real life human beings who have a life and a job or an education to go back to, giving you this content for free - and you people shit on it?

Seriously? Because you don’t like the plot or a pairing or because it doesn’t have the smut you were hoping it would? Wow. WOW.

It’s okay not to like something; just close the tab and get on with your life. No one needs your ‘i don’t like this’ comment. No one. 

Yeah, I know there are assholes in every fandom, I’m not a naive little bird crying over one or two isolated cases. But in our little corner of the femslash nerdsphere, their ranks are growing. And to be honest with you all, the more they grow, the less good content you’ll see online. 

And that’s not some dumb threat or whatever; I’m just saying, this is how fandoms become toxic, and eventually empty. I for one don’t feel like sticking around if no one’s going to speak up against the anon bullies that are getting louder and louder.

it’s not what i’m in love for i don’t know if you could help it maybe i’m just being selfish loving you’s a b l o o d s p o r t

JMo needs to take tips from this actress. 

if you think I’ll ever be over Root’s first ‘oh shit she’s hot’ moment of realization you are absolutely wrong (via ohthesefeelingz)

Given that his box has changed… It looks like Finch is The Machine’s analog interface too now ???

I don’t think it’s changed—there are no black lines. Analog Interface is black box with yellow corners. It’s the same as it was in If-then-Else. 

No, look closer : the lines aren’t black, sure, but now only the corners are yellow (I just noticed the difference in the color of the lines, it’s the corner thing that caught my attention at first). If you zoom in on the picture you’ll see it :)

That also means I have no idea what it’s supposed to mean now.

See no difference, sorry. 

I enhanced the colors most I could, can you see it better here ? :)

(But with your screen cap it does look the same while on mine not at all, I’m pretty confused now oO)

Your screencap looks way whited out and not a natural color at all. Harold looks white. And the box still looks mostly the same. Did you enhance the colors of my If-Then-Else to the same levels?

Yes I played with contrasts and saturation and everything to make it look more obvious, that’s why it’s not the least bit natural anymore. I just tried with your screen cap of If-Then-Else and it’s yellow, yellow, yellow all the way :

But now the real weirdest part is that if I do it with your screen cap of MIA :

It is all yellow too. Which means I’m really, really confused now.

Honestly, your first screencap is super-whited out to me, the whole thing. Root’s hand is like bright paper without definition. The sidewalk is glaring bright and the pedestrian’s white sweater blends in nearly completely.

Maybe my laptop is set with 'weird' colors, I don't know. Anyway I give up trying to understand, I'll just wait and see what happens !

nothing kills that cat.

The saddest word in the whole wide world is the word almost.
