Seen some talk of unethical fiction, so here’s my take

Three panel comic titled Unethical Fiction:
1. Made with AI
2. Printed on human skin
3. The author uses their profits to fund a hate group.

In case you weren't aware, the awesome SPN Summergen is posting! Lots of great fics and art set in the Supernatural verse. Horror, angst, fluff - there's something for everyone here (except smut, because Summergen is a summer festival of gen SPN fanworks). archiveofourown.org/collections/...

"Summergen is an anonymous, prompt-based, gen fanworks gift exchange originally designed to help Supernatural fans while away the desert months of summer hiatus. Since the show has ended, we just can't quit it. SPN is the Hotel California of fandoms. :D"

And FFS, please stop using body language as an argument that JA played Dean as gay. JA uses the same long glances and body language with Sam as well as Cas, so if that's gay then he was also playing Dean as intentionally incestuous, and we all know that's also not true.

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

If we tell TV execs it is okay to write straight characters and then later say "actually they were queer" with no commitment and no reciprocation, we tell them they don't ever have to write good queer characters & plotlines, we'll just eat the dry white bread they give us and call it delicious.

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

Dying on the altar of SPN as queer is a stupid death, and a stupid legacy. The shows out there that were queer from day one are SO much better. OFMD, Black Sails, Love Victor, Heated Rivalry - shows like those are the real queer legacy of today. SPN shouldn't even be a footnote in comparison.

181

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

I've seen folks saying he should lie about it and say he did for the sake of queer rights, and FFS NO! The only way we get quality queer content is if we don't settle for anything less. SPN was fun, and it had some queer characters, Cas among them. But that's it.

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

He has always supported the folks who wrote fanfic of any flavor, so that's nothing new, either. And he has done a lot of good to support real, live queers. Saying that he never played a character as gay and was never told by the writers or showrunners to do so is not homophobic, it's honest.

160

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

Did some of the writers, the last showrunner, and one of the cast (MC) inject queer content into the show? Yes. Was it successful or skillfully done? No. JA has said for 15 years that Dean was written as straight, and he has never flipped or been wishy-washy about that. And that's okay.

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

JFC, the copium around Purcon 10 is killing me. Supernatural is and always has been a show about two brothers and their friends hunting monsters, devils, angels and eventually god. It is NOT a "censored queer text" and trying to make that its legacy is just... dumb.

Honestly, I expect they'd both switch, but in my own writing I lean toward Dean topping. I am aware that I am in the minority.

There's a screenshot going around of authors admitting to AI use and one of them appears to write hardcore monsterfucking fics and this makes me sad. If you're not writing monsterfucking fics for the sheer, genuine love of the game then what the hell are we even doing here?

This is probably gonna gain traction soon, so I want to ground everyone before the fear that may come. The purpose of memos like this is probably best understood as to create fear. If they had the resources and ability to conduct mass crackdowns on trans groups, they would just do it.

I know controlling hyperfixations isn't easy - that's like, the definition of what makes them a hyperfixation. But like a muscle, it IS possible to make our control over them stronger by flexing it. And I think fandom as a whole would be a lot healthier, and happier, if we do.

110

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

So maybe this year could be the year we treat our Ids the way we'd treat our kids or pets? Enjoy our hyperfixations but don't feed them 24/7. Don't let them take over running our whole dopamine engines. Don't let them become angry gods of destruction when our theories and ships don't pan out.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

This is counterintuitive to The Algorithm on most social media sites, which can and will shove All The Content About Your Hyperfixation at you at the drop of a hat. Which makes it incredibly easy to facilitate this toxic engagement cycle. Twitter and TikTok make it even easier.

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

In my own personal consumption, I've noticed a direct correlation between how much I enjoy a movie and how much I've consumed about it beforehand. The more articles I've read about it, the more trailers and clips I've seen, the less I enjoy it when it arrives.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

I see this pattern again and again. Johnlock didn't go canon, but D- will. D- went to turbohell without reciprocation, but Stucky will. Steddie will. Byler will. The ID wants, and rages, and gorges on that dopamine. It's crazy and unhealthy, and the Internet will feed it until we burst.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

And the people who never liked the first show come out of the woodwork now to lovebomb you. "You're right, it's terrible, I never liked that guy." Your hyperfixation would have hated them before, but now they're its best friend because they've got that outrage dopamine hookup.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

Meanwhile, a new hyperfixation pops up - but this one is safe because here, the subtext IS the text. The pirates were always gay, the hockey players fuck in episode 1, Venom really is in Eddie. The new hyperfixation is now solid-gold proof that the old show was Always Bad and Terrible and Awful.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

This is, at its core level, your brain on drugs - all Id, no logic. The show has let you down, and now the hyperfixation is playing the part of the crazy, jilted ex. It needs hot chocolate, a hug and a good cry. But what it wants is for heads to roll.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

This is especially true when - like with literally ALL works of fiction - the evidence itself is contradictory. One writer drops a nod, the other doesn't. Now, instead of the story's direct text, suddenly it's all about subtext - and the subtext is always given more importance than the actual text.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

The other option is conspiratorial delusion - there are Forces Working Against the ship to keep it from happening. Charts and spreadsheets appear with all the fervor of a flat-earther. After all, anything can be proof that you are right if you ignore all the evidence that contradicts you.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

The dopamine highway that has been being fed 24/7 is suddenly shut down. Now, the hyperfixation darkens, switching to a loud, public outrage rampage to get that dopamine fix. Suddenly, everything beloved about Show A is now terrible - even if the quality remains unchanged.

110

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

And then comes the moment of truth, where the theory or ship is definitively disproved - usually, to no surprise to anyone who HASN'T been hyperfixating on it. Stranger Things has been saying El is the love of Mike's life since S1. Jensen has said all along that he played Dean as straight.

100

Casey679 @casey679.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

And there's that hyperfixation feeding the dopamine again - I figured it out! I'm right! My spreadsheet proves it! People who disagree become the enemy because they are keeping the dopamine from flowing - not just the fans, but the actors, the showrunners, the writers.
