I know it’s tacky to announce one’s departure, but think I’m done with Bluesky. I can’t do this anymore. I’m tired of trying to be patient and empathetic while I’m grieving only to have my words twisted and bad-faith assumptions made against me.

I wouldn't say Aziraphale is the best character of all time, but he's in the top one.
If you liked GO3 and are frustrated over other fans’ negative responses to it, well… you can always return to the finale and rewatch the canon scenes you love, right? Those of us who disliked it can’t do that. Canon is no longer a comfort for us. We have nothing.
I guess the thing is Asanthony have absolutely zero connection to the bench, and the bench holds such an emotional meaning to the whole fandom. It's impossible to just 'scroll away' or curate your feed on this one and a lot of people find Asanthony genuinely upsetting.
The lights of A.Z. Fell & Co. already went out for good seven weeks ago. I still feel such a sick grief for what this story could have been. #NotMyFinale
Hi BSKY! I’m back after a small unexpected hiatus, very sorry about that! I hope some demon!aziraphale will help with forgiveness.. #GoodOmens #GoodOmensFanart #GoodOmens3
David Tennant and Michael Sheen thank the Good Omens Fandom. ♥️ #GoodOmens #GoodOmens2 #GoodOmens3
Focusing on the most important things
You know what’s a great thing to do, always? Fact checking. Love me a good fact check.
It sure was A Choice for GO to sideline human characters more & more with each successive season in favour of angels/demons, exclude humans from the climax so an angel & demon could decide on their behalf, and then obliterate angels/demons supposedly in honour of humanity. #go3critical #NotMyFinale
For those who like #GO3, I’m curious (and I do NOT mean this as a gotcha, I just want to understand): If given the choice between an ending that resolved the plot another way & left the OG Aziraphale/Crowley happy in the South Downs, vs. the canon ending we got… would you still pick the canon one?
Better return to AO3, at least the fans know and love and understand the characters and 5he universe they live in... #NotMyFinale #GoodOmens3Critical #AntiGO3 www.tumblr.com/arsillanola/...
but ppl aren't supposed to find it even a little concerning that they didn't hug? That we didn't get a hug out of Asa & Anthony at least? In a series involving a hella sensitive religion that Amazon was determined to bury, during today's political climate, we're supposed to just trust this story >
And some of us noticed how other queer characters were treated by the narrative. It's understandable that some of the cast couldn't come back, but Maggie and Nina left the area under negative circumstances, Mutt's dead, and his beloved spouse doesn't even get a damn name. And then there was so >
I see takes saying “you shouldn’t need a kiss or a love confession to know that they’re in love” but that’s not taking into account that we were already given a kiss and a love confession that were ruined by misunderstanding. We were looking for the characters to be able to correct those.
Yeah. In this age of rampant queerphobia (including aphobia) & censorship, I need explicit onscreen proof that something is supposed to be seen through an ace lens to not find it super sus. Especially considering the fates of all the other queer relationships we saw (2 gone, 1 with a dead husband)
The absolute gall to include a song called “Kisses” when the finale deliberately excluded an actual kiss between Aziraphale and Crowley. I’m so tired of being insulted as a queer viewer. #notmyfinale
Aziraphale deserved the chance to initiate an actual kiss. He’s an angel of great appetites that he is constantly shamed for. He starved himself and hid his hunger and yearning for so long, and then never got to feast on his and Crowley’s love.
It’s been 6 weeks since #GO3. I still feel unmoored, bewildered, and angry. (Negative commentary below, coming from a place of hurt 🧵)
