A Shipping News Special: The Destiel Dilemma and Other Communication Problems

So it seems it finally happened - the good ship Destiel was sunk for good (or not depending on who you talk to) and a number of you asked me to talk about it. But I’m not going to, not really. Let’s face it everything that could possibly be said about this has already been said and I will link you to what I think are the best discussions at the end of this blog but first I want to talk about the problematic assumptions that played an important role in this and many other events like it.

Shipping News: The Problem With Upgrading the Relationship

Hi guys, it’s been a while because Teen Wolf has taken over my life (okay there’s other stuff too but you’re not interested in that so it’s not worth mentioning). Anyway we’ve had most of the season finals – which is always a turbulent time for shippers – and it’s almost time for Summer TV: when everything is just so much simpler (or so we thought damn you Teen Wolf). And while we’re on a topic of finals, let’s talk about whether or not we really want our OTP to actually get together.

Shipping News: How We Finally Met The Mother!

Hi there shippers, how are the season finals treating you? I know it’s hard, and summer hiatus is even worse… but we can get through this together (with some help from fan fiction). This week we finally meet “The Mother” (yes she does get capitalization, she’s that important), catch up with the Supernatural drama and a new femslash couple is taking off.

A Shipping News Special: The Great Destiel Debate

Just a warning: I am suffering the hangover from hell so I’ve miss most of the Destiel drama but by reader request I’ll do my best to figure it out. If you’re going to read on then please remember that this is just my personal opinion, you can disagree with me if you want in fact I actively encourage it. Anyway let’s talk about talking about slash shall we.

Shipping News: The First Time and High School Engagements

This week’s shipping news is dedicated to the turbulent teen years and all the crazy idealistic crap that comes along with it. Let’s talk the problem with teenage proposals and the magical powers of virginity. Also Sam Winchester gets a visit from the past, it’s my turn to pen The Backlot’s slash column and Mark Ruffalo thinks Science Bro’s is cute.

Spoiler Warning: Glee, New Girl, Supernatural and Teen Wolf.

Shipping News: It doesn’t matter what you ship on Supernatural it always ends in pain!

I am incredibly late with this weeks shipping news and I have absolutely no excuse other than the fact that I am incredibly lazy (also Murphy’s Law) but I have decided to take some time out of my Saturday morning to help you stay up to date with all things shipping. This week a couple of epic shipping polls (with more to come) including a replay of the Sterek vs. Faberry and Sterek vs. Destiel battles. Also an epic romance set to make a triumphant return, Supernatural is shipping all the things and I answer your most asked question – why exactly do I ship Sterek.

Shipping News: What do you do when your ship starts to sink?

Hi guys – sorry I’m a bit late this week but a lot has been happening (most of which I can’t actually tell you yet but you’ll find out soon enough and when you do you’re going to blow chunks). Right so this week: Glee’s major couples, the first ‘real’ Teen Wolf spoilers (including who Danny getting down with) and what to do when your ship starts to sink.

Fangirl 101: Shipping, sexuality and canon

This topic of conversation comes to us from the Supernatural fandom (but it is by no means exclusive to it). For those of you that don’t know in last week’s episode Dean had a gay thing. I would love to spend the next 4 paragraphs discussing the shippie implications of this moment but unfortunately it stirred up another round of the age-old slash fandom argument about sexual orientation and shipping so we’re going to talk about that instead.

Shipping News: This is basically just Teen Wolf with special guests

Sorry guys – everything is getting out of control at the moment so I have had very little time to follow the world of shipping this week. I will give you everything I do have though because I’m nice like that. Unfortunately that means it’s mostly just Teen Wolf but there are a couple of other snippets from other fandoms as well.

Shipping News: Teen Wolf is breaking my head also a New Girl hook-up… finally

Hello lonely reader – sorry for the lack of shipping news lately but it’s that time of the month when I pimp my services out to AfterElton to talk all things slash so be sure to check it out. This week – a long awaited hook up, a Larping lesbian, an Eonline poll (with conditions) and so much Teen Wolf news that it literally hurts (I’m going to burst Teen Wolf slow down).

Spoilers for New Girl and Teen Wolf.

Shipping News: Winchester angst, vampire love triangles, magical lesbians and more

Hi guys I’m back from my travels and all I brought you was this lousy shipping news. Seriously though, I’m a bit out of the loop of all things fandom due to lack of Internet but I’ve done my best to catch up on all the new television and spoilers. So let’s see how I do then shall we. I’ve got Winchester angst, Vampire love triangle trouble, a new magical lesbian ship, good times for Klainers and of course some Teen Wolf gossip.

Shipping News: It's a metaphor for lesbian sex... also is that Stiles with a girl?

This week’s Shipping News comes to you a little bit late because I have been pimping my services to After Elton for the week… you can read about the news of all things slash here. Never fear though because I’m back and we have so much to talk about, including magical lesbians, Winchester jealousy, Delena sex (FINALLY) and a certain grainy pic has the Sterek fandom going crazy.

Shipping News: Once Upon so many lesbians I don’t know where to look, gay purgatory update and more

Well I’m running a bit behind, I know, I suck. But my friends have been shipping me with a social life, which is causing some problems with my fangirling schedule. Anyway enough with the excuses I really just want to talk about Once Upon a Time, Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries (with a little bit of Glee).

Shipping News: Why am I so obsessed with the length of someone's hair?

Captain Swan is taking hold, Supernatural is still the land of slash and shippy spoilers for The Vampire Diaries and Glee.

Shipping News: The media gets it wrong, Sterek fandom drama and other shippy goodness

Hi guys, sorry I have been so slack but my thesis was due so I think you can cut me a little bit of slack. Anyway I have not fully caught up on all the happenings of the shipping world but I’ll tell you everything I know.

Shipping News: Polls and Ho Yay

I know I did one of these the other day, but news has happened and I thought why not share with the lovely people that choose to read my blog – who says I never do anything for you? Well today I brought you a new shipping competition, a femslash slash battle for the ages and masses of ho yay – fangirls love ho yay.

Spoilers for Supernatural (Season 8), Arrow (Season 1) and Chicago Fire (Season 1).

Shipping News: Supernatural takes the ho-yay crown, the media still doesn't get slash and Glee shipper tears

This week, Supernatural returns and they brought ho-yay for everyone, How I Met Your Mother is going to drag it out forever and Glee broke everyone’s heart. Also more slash fun at After Elton, The Guardian talks fan fiction and Teen Wolf teases angry Alphas.

Spoilers for How I Met Your Mother (Season 8), Revenge (Season 2), Gossip Girl (Season 6), Supernatural (Season 8) and Teen Wolf (Season 3).

Supernatural: Dean went to purgatory and Sam hit a dog

It’s back! That show about the erotically codependent brothers and their pet angel. You know the one. The show that I continue to watch despite the fact that it leaves me in a puddle of tears after pretty much every episode – let’s not even talk about season finals. But you know what, I like the pain and I am not ashamed to admit it; I’m kinky like that.  

When we left off last season Sam and Dean had been separated again when Dean and Castiel were blasted to purgatory after they finally got Dick (I’m going to miss the Dick jokes). So will Dean find his way back to Sam? Does Sam even want him back? And what about poor Cas is he still in crazytown?

Shipping News: Brotherly love, Rachel get’s a new bitchy blonde and another shipping poll

This week – Supernatural gave us a brotherly hug, Glee is distancing its big couples and bringing in new love triangles. FemSlash and Slash madness are coming to a close, Sterek gets humorous, another shipping poll and much much more.

Spoiler warning: Supernatural Season 8, Glee Season 4, Once Upon a Time Season 2, Awkward Season 2.

A Shipping News Special: Sterek vs. Destiel Day One

Ok so I know I’m only supposed to this once a week but AfterElton’s Shipping Madness Tournament just got uber exciting and seeing as I can’t decide on who to vote for (whoever wins, I win) I figured I would just offer pithy commentary to keep those outside the fandom in the loop.
