#i think americory stans acting like it's a given w/them are the silliest though 😭

hiii! i read your tags and you said something id been thinking about but replying to tags is weird so i’m sending a message haha. so matt said something last week about how people being on the block really makes you think you hate them and you forget you actually like them or whatever and i think that’s why sometimes we’re so sure people are gonna be enemies but they’re fine. cause like they all have this unique experience where they know how high emotions run and how weird it is so they take it less personally than us watching. (plus they have a like 100 day real life bond it’s easier to forgive when you know the person) like it doesn’t excuse the nasty stuff and clearly some handle it better than others but ya i agree i don’t think as many people are gonna hate each other as we keep saying

yeah! it won't impact me either way obvs, i just really don't see it - personal comments and all. i definitely think this has been a very emotional cast, but they're not like. evil (mostly.)

and that's exactly what i think! regardless of what goes down in it, it's probably comforting to have at least a couple people who "get" a very unique and psychologically intense experience. i mean, taylor still spoke to and hung out with some of the people that spoke crazy about her last season, lol. and i'd imagine that desire might be doubled with this season being as long and draining as it has been.

the fandom itself switches from intense hate to extreme support of houseguests on a whim, i think it's silly to 100% expect people who actually know each other to just throw each other in the trash over some hoarded clips from stans after the fact. which isn't to say i don't expect any hurt feelings or for everybody to be #besties4lyf, but i definitely just don't see the extreme resentment and zero contact other people seem to be hoping for. (i don't see anybody randomly wanting to chill with cameron more than necessary though. 🙈)
