I continue to run into people that are confused as to why Americans have screens on our windows and it’s really quite simple.

Diseases carried by bugs

Other assorted wildlife such as dogs and teenagers

the nineties and the early aughts television landscape really was defined by long deployment of "will they won't they" dynamics people these days would not be able to handle network television writers' rooms teasing ships for multiple years only to more often than not be given the answer "they will not. <3 hope this helps"

Fanfiction writers be like:

"here's the immensely time consuming 100K word novel-length passion project I'm working on between my real life job and family! It eats up hundreds of hours of my one and only life, causes me emotional harm, and I gain basically nothing from it! Also I put it on the internet for free so anyone can read if they want. Hope you love it!" :)

Proposal for new fandom etiquette:

If you read a fic because it was linked/recced somewhere, you leave a comment saying "came from XXX" and that comment doesn't need to include anything else.

Because when all of a sudden there's a lot of activity on one particular fic I WANNA KNOW WHY!!!!!

Obvious clarification that if you do not want to read comics you do not have to read comics but why when you suggest very neutrally that if you're into an adaption of a comic book, maybe it would be nice to read the source material do people act like you just shot their dog in front of them. It's picture books babe you should not be having this severe reaction to being suggested to read picture books.
