Having a blog in 2025 and expecting people to read it is peak comedy

Kind of depends on the context; but it's mostly boils down if you're actually making anything in the background. Otherwise, it's just people screeching into the void, from what I've seen.

To be fair, this is actually fairly plausible. It's just that it's an completely lazy cop out from the writers when the villains had the heroes at their mercy. And, you know, the usual sperging about the environmental shit that nobody will ever revisit. Speaking of which, I also find it to be equally retarded that there's an mostly intact fragment of the Death Star lying around.

The Kiwi Farms is the one website in existence that does not in some way engender omnicidal sentiments toward my own species

I’m fine dying a terrified death, just please bring the meteor and put us all out of our misery

That just sounds a lot of reeeing from newcomers diving into the middle of a franchise. But with that said, the page certainly could be a lot longer

What you're thinking of is called Archive Panic, if we're on a similar page. This trope is more the catch-all for all sorts of overly-complex bullshit that makes it too much of a chore to try to understand the story and therefore burns out the audience. Think stuff like Dark Souls lore where you end up with nothing but cryptic references and supplemental materials to build a plot out of, ARGs that spiral out of control, or stories so overburdened by symbolism that it becomes incomprehensible for anyone trying to watch it blind. This trope might be stepping on the toes of other YMMV tropes, but I will give it props for making a somewhat clever pun on another trope related to audience burnout.

Steven Universe is definitely one of those shows that is under TVT's direct protection. Not hard to see why, it's some of the biggest child grooming propaganda out there. Very in line with the LGBT pandering they beg for so much.

There's a lot of media that they seem to go very soft on and try to obfuscate criticisms on.
 
As soft as they are on "real" media that caters to their whims, it barely compares to what they think of the average My Little Pony fanfic. The site would be ten times better if the fan works section were excised entirely.

I'm torn because there are good fanfics out there but the ones they lionize just...aren't that good. It's especially bad when you realize how many MLP fanfics are written by manchildren who would very clearly rather be watching some anime instead of a preschool show about horses.

As we all know, there has been an moratorium on anything related to "Complete Monster" and "Magnificent Bastard" for just over an year, at this point. And the jannies still haven't found a PC way of saying "why can't you be normal!" to their demented userbase.

Turns out that all it took was permanently locking the new subpage and adding the very specific condition of that it "must not lead to any controversy"

This is for an children's cartoon that aired almost 20 years ago

If there's one thing I've learned about TVT after all this time, the vast majority of the userbase is very up front about being weird fetishists. The only people who aren't "in the know" are the mods and the 10% of posters who are so autistic (or young) that they don't know what sexual desire is.

I'm pretty sure that the jannies are at least somewhat aware that quite a few of their regular editors are coomers.. But they're deliberately ignoring it to keep them from bitching about it
 
TVtropes is having the Microsoft effect of only being kept afloat because the userbase doesn't know any alternative, with the alternatives ghost towns or even more plagued with coomers and also >WIKIA/Fandom?

We have an thread for it and it's facing most of the same problems that TVT has, but the company is a bit more hands-on at making the wiki farm "safer" for kids whilst ignoring the gay Discord drama that consistently causes a set of very specific problems.

Oh, there also was a coomer problem that's largely been replaced with some incredibly autistic shipping.

There's an lot more, but it basically boils down to "don't let your kids on the web!" or that quite a few admins genuinely are neurotic.
