A friendly reminder to all those who frequent my blog: if you happen to be a racist, transphobe, homophobe, anti-semite or another sort of bigot, you are not welcome here. Leave.
We’ve allowed bigotry to run rampant in the Hetalia fandom, and too little of us have made effort to stop such behaviour. Just yesterday, a literal Nazi started up an ask blog. If you care to look closely, you’ll find scum like this everywhere - on Wattpad and AO3 are racist fanfictions, on Instagram are groupchats filled with transphobes and here on Tumblr, there’s fanart of real-life issues that should never be used as means to create content.
We should’ve put a stop to this months ago, when people started making art and fanfics of COVID-19, such as APH China infecting APH Italy. As a Chinese person, do you know how much it hurts to see your nation being boiled down to be nothing but a dirty spreader of disease? In many other cases, such as the Mexico OC that sparked lots of controversy a few weeks ago, fellow POC fans and Jewish fans have been hurt by the racism in the fandom.
This has been going on for too long, long enough that we have to get our heads out of our behinds and actually take action to get rid of the bigotry that has sunken its claws into our community.
Guys, it’s going to take a lot of effort to rid the fandom of bigotry, but if we stop fighting over petty issues like ships and work together, it’s possible. Report any bigots found on social media, call out racist, anti-semitic or transphobic content and listen to what POC, Jewish and other minority fans have to say. “Trolling” is not an excuse, that doesn’t justify the discriminative actions of such people. Legitimate or not, discrimination has to go.
Don’t send hate anons or try to debate these people. Just report and block them; they don’t deserve our attention. They have no place in this fandom, and it’s high time we remind them of this.
And before I end this post, I’d like to apologise for only speaking up about this now. I’ll no longer be silent about this, I refuse to be complicit in the problem.
Good for survival.
10/10 will try
I dont really like making rebloggable posts but I haven’t seen anyone mention them yet: terracotta heaters are really easy and effective DYI heaters for cold emergencies and I think it might be helpful considering, you know
TDLR, place a candle of any size down, and put a terracotta pot (as large as possible preferably) over it, with something non-flammable and balanced to keep the bottom an inch or two off the ground, like bricks.
The candle will heat the terracotta, which will put off heat, while the space underneath lets smoke out and oxygen in. I’ve used these all 3 times we had outages here in Maine during blizzards to keep my aquariums warm, the weather outside had been easily -20 F with high winds, and not only was I cozy, that shit kept the water 10 degrees above room temperature. If it can heat the aquariums, it’ll heat a small room.
They work so much better than you’d think, the heat they put off is insane. Obviously be careful because smoke and open flame, but they’re very easy to make and just need an eye kept on them on all times.
Don’t touch the heated pot bare-handed, it’ll burn like a motherfucker, they get VERY hot. Use thick oven mitts or layered rags to remove pot, put the candle out first if you can manage. Don’t do more than one or two in a non-ventilated or closed room, it’s still making smoke and that can make it harder to breathe.
[ID: Two bricks are laid flat, two bricks are stacked on top on their sides. A candle is in a jar inbetween and is lit. A large terracotta pot is balanced on the second, higher set of bricks so it is above the candle and off the ground. End Id]

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Hetalia: Axis Powers Rating: General Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, No Archive Warnings Apply Characters: Iceland (Hetalia), Mr. Puffin (Hetalia) Additional Tags: i kinda cant believe theres an actual mr puffin character tag, what do i even tag this with, Animal Rescue, ice is a dad now, reluctantly Summary:
One puffin was bad enough. But now he’s found two more, and to make it worse, one of them is injured and there’s no way they’re getting to the animal shelter in this weather. And so, reluctantly, Iceland must learn to be a dad, of sorts.
