Fan Fiction as a Form of Active Bibliotherapy – MASTER'S THESIS

Hello there!

My dear friend @cottonfluffballofdoom is writing her master's thesis on the topic of Fan Fiction ("Fan Fiction as a Form of Active Bibliotherapy – The Therapeutic Potential of Fan Fiction"). She's at the stage where she needs to conduct her research.

Would you please consider filling out the survey below? It should take between 10 to 15 minutes. It is anonymous.

Any and all fandoms are welcome -- all that matters is that you're a fanfic reader or a writer.

Please, consider giving this post a boost or forwarding this survey further. All responses count and we'd be truly grateful for your help!

Very, very hectic, these 2020s.

There are so many things going on that I want to be happy for (victories, reunions, holidays, graduations, weddings, baby announcements), but for the past 5 years these clouds of gloom keep hovering close by and shroud what should be exclusively joyous occasions. Covid, Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, elections, protests, natural disasters, health scares, etc. etc. One replacing the next as soon as the previous one leaves. Some hanging around at the same time. Exhausting.

We've all got our coping mechanisms, but we can't grow desensitized to all this. What's going on around the world is NOT normal, and we shouldn't accept it as such. Keep fighting, but always take care of yourselves and your loved ones as you fight.

If anyone else is feeling overwhelmed by all this, you're not alone. We can get through this. 💪🤝💓 We've got the rest of the decade to make right.

ICE is in Los Angeles conducting raids and arresting families and children on their way to their court dates and raiding workplaces. Trump has called the National Guard in to stop protestors and is spreading a false narrative about violence, raiding, etc. to distract from the fact that ICE is abducting children in a SANCTUARY CITY.

Do not look away, do not be silent. If you or a loved one is detained by ICE, stay silent except to ask for your lawyer. Keep your documents on you. Call legal aid foundations who are standing by.

If you are NOT in LA and want to help, you can contact rapid response networks and ask how to help or donate. Donate to ACLU, the Mexican American Legal Defense Fund (MALDEF), or the Immigrant Defense Project.

trtworld Over 7,000 activists from Mauritania, Morocco, and Algeria, and thousands from Tunisia and Libya, are set to drive across North Africa on June 9 as part of the Maghreb Resilience Convoy a key component of the Global March to Gaza to reach the Rafah crossing and demand an end to the siege on Gaza.

In a powerful display of solidarity, a 300-vehicle caravan will depart from Tunis and other major cities in North Africa, aiming to pressure authorities to open a permanent and independent humanitarian corridor into Gaza.

The citizen-led movement bringing together doctors, students, lawyers and everyday people will gather in Cairo on June 12, then march on foot for three days toward Rafah, delivering a global message of resistance and hope to the gates of Gaza.

i have a question and i hope it's not taken in bad faith but i have been really worried about how i see the same palestinian blogs asking for help under every post's comments that i see. i cant help but feel they're bots using a sort of algorithm because of past experiences with fundraiser scams. i guess im not sure how exactly they manage commenting on every single post if that makes sense

OK I didn't want to answer this at first, but I see this sentiment WAY too much. These people are not bots. Please remember Gazans' humanity and before condemning their methods, think about why they choose those methods. And as always check and see if the fundraiser is vetted. I can personally attest to the fact that we are checking if these people are human beings and not bots.

I urge you to think for 5 minutes about the situation of Gazans right now.

Gazans right now have no jobs, no income.

Supplies are incredibly expensive, so they desperately need to raise money.

Fundraisers are NOT a reliable form of income. Most people are getting a few dollars a day to support a whole entire family--hardly enough to live.

They have a lot of free time right now, because they are not able to pursue work or leisure, or any activity besides survival.

They easily are able to pass the time scrolling on tumblr and putting their donation template in peoples' ask boxes and replies. In fact, to them, their survival depends on it.

If they are not in your face, you forget they exist and they stop getting donations.

And they are not commenting on every single post. I would imagine they have certain blogs they frequent, and they probably target posts which have lots of notes to give themselves visibility.

israel has gotten away with so much with american and uk support. The deafening silence fron our politicians should now be considered as directly aiding this genocide. The vile complicity should be held against them.

[scorchieart]

Reporter: Why do you think so many countries’ governments around the world are just ignoring what’s happening in Gaza?

Greta Thunberg: Because of racism, that’s the simple answer, I would say. Racism, and basically desperately trying to defend a deadly, destructive system that systematically maximizes short term economic profit and geopolitical power over the well being of humans and the planet. Right now, it is morally difficult to defend that – it is impossible— but they’re desperately trying which is …. absurd is not the word, but there are no words to describe it.

*shakes fictional character* where is the rest of your information I want to know more about you

[scorchieart]

C is for Collaboration

Clavis: Gentlemen, and Chevalier, thank you for agreeing to meet on such short notice.

Luke: Ya dragged us here in a net.

Nokto: Against our wishes, I might add. My bum's all bungled, you bum.

Clavis: The urgency of the matter demanded I forgo comfort, little brothers. I promise my next trap will be more considerate of your posteriors.

Nokto & Luke: Hooray for us.

Clavis: Customer satisfaction is as important to me as my own, which brings me to the point of this meeting. Luke, the new dolls you distributed, while immensely adorable and true-to-form, have a glaring issue.

Luke: Like ya said, they're life-like. If you got a problem with the doll, bring it up with the model.

Clavis: Oh, no. You misunderstand me. The figures themselves are flawless. I, for one, find my likeness impeccably accurate. But as a concerned consumer, I must leave a comment on the detailing. You see, you reused the same letter for both Chevalier and myself.

Luke: So, on top of lousy handwriting, ya can't spell. Got it.

Clavis: Do let me finish. This is merely constructive criticism from your initial testers. We wouldn't want to cause a scandal once your products release to the market. Trust me, the public can be vicious.

Luke: Don't need 'em. I only ever planned on making the one set.

Nokto: Aww, so they're personalized gifts? Your sincerity is enough to make me vomit.

Luke: It ain't like that. I just had a lot of extra fabric... is all... really.

Clavis: I'm being serious here. The fact that even one version of them exists the way it is poses a huge risk for the royal family. One look at our dolls and people might mistake us for *gulp* f r i e n d s.

Nokto: [monotone] Oh, no. How could anyone possibly come to that conclusion?

Clavis: Exactly my point, brother dear. Now you understand the severity of this matter.

Nokto: Can I go now? Evie's making coconut clusters. Just you try and make me miss out on them again, Clavis. I dare you.

Chevalier: *ears perk up from behind his book*

Luke: Yum, coconut drenched in honey~ Hey, maybe I'll make a tiny cookie tin to go along with Yves's doll. Bet he'd like it? I mean— only 'cuz now I'm stuck with a bunch of fabric scraps.

Clavis: Back on track, boys. I'll bake you treats later.

Luke: Pass. I don't hear Chevie complaining. And Leon and Licht didn't yap about it either.

Clavis: That's because L is a regal letter to represent you three. You're the lovely little lads of Lelouch!

Nokto: [muttering] More like loony Lelouch.

Clavis: What was that, naughty Nokto?

Nokto: Oh, real clever. Is that why I'm really here? You're jealous my doll's got a unique letter so you're taking it out on me with lame alliteration? I didn't choose my name, I'll have you know.

Clavis: Perish the thought! You are here to help workshop ideas for our baby brother's newest business venture. Our combined experiences will set him on the path to financial AND social success.

Luke: Like I said, I ain't planning on selling 'em.

Clavis: [ignoring] Additionally, that dunderhead Sariel says we need to fill a monthly all-hands team meeting quota so people believe we are a legitimate faction. He's more full of stuffing than his doll, but I will not allow the public to spread rumors that we are less capable than the domestic faction.

Luke: I thought you didn't want anyone thinking we're friends. That part I actually agree on.

Clavis: [ignoring x2] Have faith, Nokto. We need you here. Your letter is as fitting and unique as you are.

Nokto: He said to the twin.

Clavis: I meant what I said, dear.

Nokto: So did I. Keep that mushy talk up and I'll puke for real.

Chevalier: Directed away from my desk, if you must.

Luke: Want me to sew a barf accessory for your doll?

Nokto: Spew you lot! I'm out of here.

Clavis: Wait! Luke, that's a wonderful idea!

Luke: Oh, so that part you heard. It was just a joke. I am always overstocked on shades of green, though.

Clavis: Yes, you're brilliant! You and Nokto both! What better way to differentiate Chevalier and myself than by depicting us as complete antitheses! The dashing, debonair, suave gentleman versus the uncouth, slovenly beast. We'll modify our dolls' looks with accessories and come up with new nicknames to boot. V can work nicely for Chev: 'Veritable Vomit'. But let's come up with some more options and pick the best ones. Ooh, I am simply bursting with inspiration! Let's see, we can do A for 'Abominable Aberration'. B for 'Bloodcurdling Behemoth" — Hey, where are you all going? We're just getting started!

Luke: Nah, I'm keeping it C for 'Can it, Clavis. Coconut clusters are calling'.

Nokto: Or D for 'Don't you dare drag us here again, you dunderhead'!

*Nokto and Luke look expectantly at Chevalier, who is the first to reach the door.*

Chevalier: ...E for 'The End'.
