Fandom Problem #9722:

I hate this online believe that if some creator did something bad at any point in their life, that you are banned from ever again liking anything that they had made as otherwise you will get cancelled and doxed online.

Author of books that you liked potentially did or said something problematic? Burn all your books, even if you barely know anything about the author or ever cared about them personally.

Lead actor of your favourite show or movie maybe did something illegal? You can never again watch the entire franchise ever again or you support whatever they did, even if you don't even know the actor's name.

I do feel bad for people who had suffered under the bad and awful things these people had done to them. I truly do and they deserve justice. However expecting not only absolutely everyone to always know about whatever random creator did, but to then also dropping what you genuinely loved for it, is just an impossible demand to make.

Because not only do most fans of things do not care about the people behind the works and thus do not keep up with whatever they are doing, but in almost all the cases it does absolutely nothing to help the victims if the fans get bullied into stopping to enjoy things they loved that have absolutely no connection to the fictional work.

Fandom Problem #9729:

Fandom is for everyone. Not just children. Not just adults. Not just teenagers.

Anyone can like a piece of media and want to find a group of people who share that interest. Age doesn't impact the fact that people like things and want to share about them.

You know what I wanna have in more movies?

Sound balance.

I love looking at the YouTube front page when I'm not logged in.

It's like catching a glimpse of the eighth circle of Hell full of famous people I've never heard of, all of whom are supposedly embroiled in an earth shattering scandal.

And then Firefox finishes logging me in and it's back to frolicking through the Shire.

just remembered shows used to have 20-25 eps per season

you will live to witness manmade horrors that are completely within your comprehension if you've paid any attention to a single piece of human history but are nevertheless still huge bummers

anyone else get embarrassed when their self indulgent daydreams are like too self-indulgent? like oh jeez the telepaths are going to judge me

I am fucking BEGGING people to include proper sources when talking about news and current events. A screenshot of a headline or a social media post is not a proper source.

Current writing advice I'm seeing on TikTok and Insta is telling authors to stop using em dashes in their work because, "AI uses em dashes so people will think you've used AI."

Y'know, the AI that was trained on the stolen work of real authors?

Anyway, I will not be doing that. What I will be doing, however, is adding a note at the start of all my books that no AI was used in the creation of my work because I, the author, did not go to university for four fucking years to study English literature and linguistics only to be told I can't use proper grammar because someone might think a robot wrote it.

Fucking, insane.

you can’t force people to care about things they don’t care about by the way

hmm this post doesn't make sense when I skim key words and assign them the first values that pop into my head. op must be stupid.

I periodically see ships that make me go "What?! No! No!" and then move on and don't harass anyone and feel so strong and brave.
