I’ve said this before but centering writing around tropes only works for fanfiction bc readers are already invested in the characters due to the source material. If I don’t already know the characters idc if there’s only one bed. Make me care about them and their dynamic first
fave ko yung subset ng englishero (this is most of them) na proud na di marunong mag filipino tapos feel nila sina-smartshame sila for only knowing english pero ang hihina ng critical thinking at comprehension tapos mali mali pa gamit ng language #sapiosexual#deep#intellectual
not all from luzon speaks tagalog lmao u need tagalog if ure a cebuano and ure going to ilocos and talk to ilocos locals and vice versa. however, english kills ALL philippine languages.
sometimes i forget certain people arent used to fandom culture. wdym you think shipping characters is annoying. its a fandom. YOU'RE GONNA FIND SHIPPING!! SHIPPING IS WHAT MAKES A FANDOM A FANDOM!!!!!! MORE OR LESS AT LEAST
Unless you are talking about Tagalog speakers who look down on our regional languages, what are “Filipino language elitists?”
English is seen as the “sosyal”language. Our ruling elite converses in it. Laws and academia, too.
Saang lupalop ng Pilipinas mo naman napulot ‘yan?
Note how OP says any [Philippine] language(s). This is not a Tagalog versus every other local language. Don't pit our languages against each other.
It's time na aralin naman ang mga wika natin, regardless of where we're from,regardless of which class we belong to. Ayun lang!
immerse urself in the culture bitch. manood ka ng mga pelikulang pilipino andami online and it really, really is a skill issue if you pass the age of majority and you're still not making the effort to learn one of the main languages of the community you live in.
like it gets to a point talaga. sure you can start out only knowing english, lord knows Filipinos love raising their kids to only know how to speak English but like!! u're grown!! surely! you can teach yourself??? or find friends that speak primarily Filipino?
New fandom members getting annoyed they can't monetise on ao3 because ao3 was created after an author tried to SUE HUNDREDS of fic writers. It is an ARCHIVE. It is a LIBRARY.
I’m about to sound fucking ancient but fandom etiquette is truly dead because none of the younger people give a single fuck about keeping things in *FANDOM SPACES.* Twitter is NOT a fandom space. Instagram is NOT a fandom space. You ruin things for everyone and then act confused.
