Hey, Read This And Fucking Reblog It.

hey, read this and fucking reblog it.

usually i try to be kind or at least neutral on some things, but today's not the day for that. fuck anyone on the planet who has decided that it is okay to ship minors.

i bring this up now because i'm seeing a surge of people shipping minors in the dream smp/mcyt community - most commonly between tubbo and tommyinnit, or tubbo and ranboo. if you do this, choke and die slowly.

it is not your job to speculate on the sexualities or the relationships of sixteen/seventeen y/o's, especially when they've gone out of their way to say that they don't want to be shipped, sexualised or anything of the sort. it is encroaching on the boundaries of real people, real friendships, and i'd like to remind you that it's fucking illegal.

i have seen post after post speculating that tubbo is lgbt and it has to stop. whether or not he is or he isn't is completely irrelevant - the point is that speculating about it is intrusive, it's harmful to a minor, and if he is lgbt, it's going to confuse the fuck out of him and make it harder to come out if he is lgbt. truthing needs to stop.

i am not going to sit around and try and be courteous to people like that.

i want to mention, however, that i myself have made jokes about them 'flirting', specifically ranboo and tubbo, but i mainly did it in the context of knowing that it was all in good fun and not serious on the valentines day streams where they were joking about being valentines. if it at all appeared that i was trying to ship them, or if i endorsed that kind of behaviour, i apologise.

what i will not apologise for, however, is being a cunt to people who overstep boundaries.

i've reblogged a post before containing a blocklist of people who engage with this kind of behaviour, but in general tags that should be blocked or avoided include:

enderbee, enderbees, ranbee, boobee (this one makes me want to dash my skull into a wall), tubbo truthing, ranboo truthing and any variants of a person x person tag or other related shipping tags that i have missed.

i know at times it might not be beneficial to talk on things but it is my personal belief that some issues do need to be talked about, brought to light - information that this is happening should be known and something should be done to combat it. i haven't been on tumblr for long, but as soon as i see a post shipping minors, i immediately block and report (in fact i pretty much block shippers on my feed anyway) and i would reccommend doing something similar. there should be an effort to discourage this sort of behaviour.

dream saying that he doesn't really care if people ship him with someone like george isn't an umbrella statement, in fact dream has gone on record stating the opposite - his words, just because he's extremely popular, doesn't encompass the feelings of individuals. all three, tommy, tubbo and ranboo have gone on record and stated that they do not wish to be shipped or sexualised, especially since it is illegal because of their age. i'm not placing the blame on dream here, however, i'm placing the blame on dickheads who decide that because dream said something, it must apply to everyone else.

tldr: if you ship minors, you aren't welcome here.
