I agree with this wholeheartedly. We want to be sure all credit and appreciation goes to the artist.
I know a lot of fandoms are based around media owned by some huge company or worked on by a lot of people, but let’s keep in mind that Linked Universe specifically is given to us For Free by 1 (ONE) artist, Jojo
She deserves to be credited if you’re going to be posting screenshots of her art because she worked incredibly hard to share this with us when she Didn’t Have To
And I said this a little earlier but I’ll say it again: I do not think we should be sharing screenshots of linked universe on tumblr before Jojo even updates the comic on tumblr.
This is HER au, yeah it’s based on characters owned by nintendo, but this is HER work and HER art
Give her credit when you post screenshots her stuff. Let her be the first to share her amazing and beautiful art with the community we have here on tumblr
Not trying to be mean or anything, but i think a lot of us are used to being in huge fandoms run by companies and not being part of a community that built itself around a fanartist’s lovely work 🫶
Luigi Mangione is not a hero. You celebrate him because you’re ignorant. You’re anti rich people and you hate CEOs so you cheer for the murder of someone you’re programmed to hate. You never heard of Brian Thompson before he was murdered, you just cheer his murder because “CEO” and “UnitedHealthcare.”
But you don’t understand that Mangione did not do anything that will result in a positive change. UnitedHealthcare is still UnitedHealthcare. Nothing about its operations will change. Thompson will be replaced and they will continue to operate as usual.
Brian Thompson didn’t even has much control over the company as you believe and Unitedhealthcare isn’t hurt by his murder.
In your hatred you forget that Brian Thompson was a human being who did not deserve to get gunned down in the streets just because he was the CEO of an insurance company.
Mangione did not make a positive change. The world is not a better place without Brian Thompson. UnitedHealthcare isn’t changing or going anywhere. The people most impacted by this loss are Brian Thompson’s wife and children.
Luigi Mangione is a cold blooded murderer who killed a husband and father and if you revel in this murder just because the victim was a CEO you are actually celebrating evil and you need to reexamine how it is you have to stooped to a level that allows you to celebrate murder because you have issues with the status a person holds in society.
Love it!!

Honourable mention
To believe in something beyond objective reality is a religion. You cannot force people to believe your religion.
Yes, let's talk about "your" pronouns for a moment, because I have some thoughts on the matter...
What's that? Oh, silly me. By "let's talk about," what you actually mean is "unquestioningly comply with my demands."
Be that as it may, "we" - which is to say, "I" - am going to talk about it regardless.
Let's analyze this for a moment.
She gives the game away right up front: blue heart is for boys, pink heart is for girls. This ideology is based on stereotypes. If you still doubt this, I don't know what else to show you to convince you.
Secondly, her "gender" isn't a profound knowledge of personal identity, because it changes faster than the weather. I'm not even sure it's her personality, because anyone whose personality changes that rapidly and that wildly has some kind of severe disorder. What she's calling "gender" seems to be nothing but her mood.
Thirdly, and I keep having to repeat this, if your "gender" requires others to participate, then it's not a "deeply personal sense of self." Just like your faith cannot be "a personal relationship with Jesus" if everybody else has to pray or refrain from pointing out the flaws in the bible. "Gender is a social construct" means that your "gender" only "exists" to the extent people play along. People are sick of being bullied into pretending for narcissists.
More importantly, you don't get to make others participate and then deny them any say or input. You can't give people an obligation with no authority, because if you think you can, then others can give you an obligation with no authority.
And you don't get to make others responsible for your mental wellbeing, to carry the burden you cannot or will not, and then get angry when they don't meet your standards or decline the obligation at all. You are responsible for you. Trying to make other people responsible for your emotions or mental state is psychotic. Xians insist that humans - and particularly children - are responsible for keeping their god happy, evidently because he cannot do it himself. You're just as much of an immature psychopath. We are not responsible for keeping you from bursting like a fragile soap bubble.
You can have a personal, unquestionable conviction, or you can have a matter of public interest and discussion. As soon as you insist others participate, you forfeit the right to cordon your beliefs off from scrutiny. If you want your beliefs to go unmolested, then keep them to yourself.
If it's nobody else's business, don't make it other people's business. You can't claim your "gender" is nobody else's business, nobody else gets a say, and then insist it is their business to comply with these demands and prop the whole delusion up.
Private concern or public interest. Choose one.
Fourthly, anyone who comes up with rules like this is a sociopath who is trying to control, manipulate and trap others. Since third-person pronouns are used primarily when someone is not present, when referring to an individual when talking to others, this is a form of authoritarian thought-control. You do not get to dictate how others must see you or think of you. They get to decide for themselves what they think of you, regardless of whether or not you like it, and it's none of your business. And if your sense of self is so flimsy that you must coerce them to conform their view of you to your own view of yourself, then you have bigger problems than "your" pronouns.
When she walks into room, people stiffen because they have to talk like idiots around her - and that's part of the appeal. She wants to be "misgendered," because who is she if she's not a marginalized victim and the center of attention? That's the trick: either you comply, and she wins, or you refuse, and she gets to pretend to be a victim and she wins. Nobody's obliged to pay attention to these insane, imaginary rules, much less play along. When she's already gamed it to win no matter what, the only way for you to win is to retain your integrity and self-respect and tell the truth.
And finally, you do not have pronouns. The pronouns belong to the language, in this case, English. The English language has pronouns for you. You don't have your own pronouns any more than you have your own conjugations or your own adjectives. Other languages, such as German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Chinese and Japanese, have their own structures, and they're not for you to "fix" with your stupid activism.
And yes, languages change. They evolve through common usage and common acceptance, not through narcissists performing blunt-force creationism enforced with emotional manipulation and vilification.
She's an average, unremarkable girl who's found a socially acceptable way to control other people and pretend to be interesting.
My adjectives are amazing/brilliant/impressive.
Misadjectiving is hate. #BeKind
P.S. I miss the days when pink, green or blue dyed hair was a sign of rebellion and uniqueness, rather than a predictable trope and red flag that warns the world about all your views and opinions before you ever open your mouth. #MakeDyedHairCoolAgain
