The fact that the rt staff clearly didn’t know the company is shutting down is so shitty. Like at least give them warning so they can start looking for new jobs???
Ok fuck it since she wants to play victim and act like people are spying on her for me, fine. I asked the person in the screenshot if she is white. When she said yes, I politely explained to her what the problem with her using an Asian name when she’s white was-
Personally I’m not worrying about rwby’s future until we have reason to. When they announced v9’s release plan, they said they were having it on crunchyroll for the future of rwby. The brand is popular enough that it’ll most likely continue on there
I gotta say it’s kinda funny that someone’s complaining about people liking men in rwby when they also like Roman. Like your fav is the white racist guy. I think you should back off from others a little
And being clear
If you are a white person using an Asian name online and you genuinely don’t know the issue with that, that doesn’t make you a bad person. I said as much to her. But if someone points out the problem and you refuse to stop using an Asian name? That’s a problem
I (again politely) said I wasn’t comfortable interacting with her anymore based on that and suggested she maybe just go by her other pen name. She then blocked me. I never once publicly named her for this, and only mentioned it to people who also thought it was an issue
This fandom is deeply broken, and if your response to someone saying you may be doing something racist is to say they’re “playing games” or you’re just trying to spread positivity, you are the problem. Work on yourself
and she was completely dismissive of my bringing up that doing so is racist and a form of cultural appropriation, with her saying that she chose it just bcs it sounded cool (meaning with no regard to the actual culture and importance of the name)
The rwby fandom shows time and time again that it is a racist place, and despite how many of the main characters are Asian, the fandom continually shows it does not give a fuck about actual Asian people. Many people only even view the Asian characters as such in theory
This may be a hot take but I don’t think that minors should be posting things that are nsfw/have nsfw implications and I think that adults in particular should not engage with any posts like that bcs they’re actively putting kids in danger through spreading it
1) this isn’t your art
2) my autism making it incredibly difficult to have any relationship isn’t something fun and sexy. It’s incredibly lonely and isolating and has led to me being mistreated
Gonna try out

♥️ Shepherd, she/her
♠️ Looking for interactive mutuals
♦️ Multifandom, main interests atm are: Saw movies, Fallout (games + show), comics (mainly DC w/ some Marvel + indies), writing, and OC making
♣️ I write but mainly for a specific OC x canon ship
lmao the person who called me “hypocritical” for saying white people should not use Asian names deleted. If you’re going to insult me for something, at least know what you’re talking about
Shock your followers with facts about you
- I was in the first Hunger Games movie and I am visibly in it for some shots
- I have never watch an episode of Sponge Bob in my life
- I broke my collar bone when I was being born
shock your followers with facts about you
- When I was 4, I had staples to my head due to injury from running into the corner of a shelf 😭
- I've never been to a movie theater
- I boiled a biscuit to make it softer since it was like a rock, but it turned into mushed wet bread
Sorry but if you’re complaining about a rarepair account posting a rarepair, you’re annoying. If you don’t like random rarepairs, why follow the random rarepair account?
The wildest thing with the whole white woman using a Japanese name situation was a popular fic writer blocking me over it. Like lmao. Guess your white friend is more important to you than the cultures of the characters you like writing
I think there’s a lesson for game adaptations to learn from this and it’s that if you make a show that’s faithful to the source material while telling an original story, you can make more people want to play your games
Thank you so much
@LXVELAIN
for drawing my OCs Alexis Hoang and Minna Bauer from my fic
#TheToyBox
! They’re so cute and absolutely not at all in danger of dying
You all have got to start checking the ages of people you dunk on for making cringey horny tweets bcs sometimes in doing that you are actively endangering minors by spreading that content
Anyone else remember when someone got mad that I said they shouldn’t go by Yang since they aren’t Asian and they said they didn’t know how racism works bcs they’re an autistic farmhand. Also they sent their friend after me to demand I prove racism exists
@camelotslibrary
My best guess is it’ll be going to crunchyroll exclusively. iirc with v9 they said they had plans to do stuff with rwby there, so it’d make sense if that became the new hub for it. I think it’s a popular enough show to be give off to a new company
This tweet brought to you by me politely saying to a mutual that if she’s a white woman she should not be using an Asian name online and then getting blocked. rwby fandom, you all continually show you do not gaf about Asians
Never ask a woman her age, never ask a man his salary, never as a Shepherd how many Steadfast completed and wip fics she has that are about Ironwood and Chae-Yeong cuddling in bed
Who are your favorite characters?
I got: Canon queer characters. Honorary mention to Anne, Agent Curt Mega, Owen, Eleanor, Flint and Holt as well!
Reply for a theme!
Happy AAPI history month, here are a bunch of my Asian OCs and also Ironwood is there and is also Asian

PEREZ (CONT'D): I just don't understand Peter's motivation. He was my partner for five years, and I knew he was a hot head, but I never saw any indication of psychotic behavior.
i love the concept of a "goth coded" character, a character that for different reasons can't really follow goth fashion but everything from vibes and interests match what you expect from a Goth, i need more characters like this.
i want to kiss you. not on your mouth, but on your most secret scars, your ashy black and journeyed knees, your ring finger, the trigger finger, those hands the world fears so much.
rwby fandom I am looking at you bcs even the people who can acknowledge a lot of the main cast are Asian only can in theory. You all have got to learn to draw east Asian features and to actually represent the characters’ cultures instead of just going “yeah Yang is Asian”
why is every gay person is named something like blake, shepherd, walpy, meena, kass, ilia, clam, ruby, mars, velvet, cain, nora, brook, vi, jade, alizée, jihan, lia, ace, gear, raph, tiger, percy or leo?!?!
