The codenames meme from Parks & Recreation, with good ol’ Poké pals~ <3 :’) I had this in my mind for a way too long time before finally making this oops! please excuse my horrible handwriting /sobs
Someone: So which generation are you actually a part of?
People born from 1996-2001:
Like OP said. A dystopian/horror movie... and I thought the Family Day was the worst thing alive, lol. The only thing left to me is staying positive and focusing on other things.
I've purposely avoided horror fiction in these days of pandemic because, you know, anxiety. However I feel the need to read horror is building up; for some reason, horror and sci-fi proved the best forms of escapism. I think it's because horror is very engrossing while sci-fi is about faraway galaxies so it does a great job taking you away from your sad current situation.
I'm still worried about the effects of reading horror on my psyche, especially because I'm pretty sure I'm repressing my feelings. I'm apparently ok but tonight I had my second quarantine dream and I woke up crying, which is something I don't remember ever happening before.
@spanish speakers te amo feels weird to say??????

I'm sorry America. We in Italy are trying our best, but for 2nd phase there is a shortage of tampons, and this is concerning.
Celebrities are saying things like, “young or poor, black or white, rich or not, we all have to play our part” from their luxurious Beverly Hills homes. The irony. Most people with symptoms aren’t even able to get tested but these big names with big money are despite being asymptotic. That is all you need to know about America.
Okay, now that I'm calmer. I could explain it better (maybe)
When I first discovered Vocaloid, I was very young, and with me being aspie, maybe I was even more naive than the average boy.
And that led me to see something that a boy or girl my age shouldn't have never see
Someone in my fandom was 10, but faked their age just to fit in.
The fandom years ago wasn't nice at all, and with we being really young, we made weird asks and we got treated harshily
I don't want to talk about the fandom anymore, but I want to give you advice for the next video/fanart/song next:
Please, use trigger warnings. "Triggered" is not a meme, you could got triggered by something that scares you. If a video uses too many flashy lights, put a disclaimer in the beginning. If a song talks about something bad, put a warning in the beginning. If a song talks about something bad but it's implied/open to interpretations, put a warning in the beginning and explain the real meaning in the beginning
Not only most of the songs were in Japanese/English (not everyone's native language) but we couldn't be able to understand if there was something dirty, we were too young.
Explain that Sh/ta e L/li doesn't mean "cute boy" and "cute girl", before young fans could look for pictures and got traumatized.
Explain that Y/ndere could be really scary and not "just a parody pf a clingy girl/boy" like I thought. Some y/ndere songs were really scary.
Explain them the risks of roleplaying online, that not everyone is a kid/teen and could have malicious intents
And tell them if they made bad experiences that it's not their fault, and be there to help them.
Not every fan is American, and European fans don't experience racism based on skin color, but on stereotypes. Some European kids would get confused if you draw your favorite vocaloid with darker skin. If they ask you about it, they didn't make it to sound racist. It's just something different between cultures
Don't bully them because of unpopular ships, but tell them if is something illegal.
Some of Rin Len fans just saw them as robots/mirror images or something like Kokoro/Kiseki. Some of the Rin Len fans were so young they didn't knew about tw//cest. Maybe they used it inappropriately without knowing the real meaning and then got exposed to something they never wanted to see(Some of us used inappropriately both English and Japanese words, like Arigatou instead of Ohayou,but we were learning, could you blame a young kid?)
And last, comparing Piko to Boku etc. was never funny at all. We were minors. And I don't think an adult would find this funny as well.
Please, if you spot something young/immature in the fandom from now on, help them. They didn't know a lot of things. Don' t discriminate a fan because "has unpopular opinions" or "too annoying" or made "stupid asks". Could be a literal kid,or somewhere in the autistic spectrum. And don't use twitter to talk about them. If they are on tumblr, reply directly to them on tumblr. Even if you have to ask: Why did you tag my drawing as a ship?I never meant that. Don't write on other social media "Uugh op wrote this as a ship it's so stupid lol" because it's rude.
I personally was never able to write fanfictions, and the most thing I did with my characters was... Holding hands??
TL,DR don't be like the fandom was almost 10 years ago. Put trigger warnings, explain the real meaning of some terms, and be more patient.

Daisy Ridley killin’ it. PART 2
And some MMD videos have flashy lights and motion sickness too. Put a warning
