F!S Anon Meme (the ??th!)


Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required.
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

I'll be linking some general/general-fandom threads I see so people don't repost new threads with the same stuff. If you want me to link your thread up here, drop a link in the first comment!



General:
Halloween costumes

Fandom-general:
Porn comics
F/F recs
Guilty pleasures

Fandom-specific:
Girl Meets World

Re: Do you enjoy failure?

I struggle with learned helplessness to a pretty high degree, so for me failure is always hellish, because it just reinforces my instinctive feeling that it's not even worth trying to do anything because I will always fail.

Just trying once is really hard for me. Trying again after I've failed requires massive effort. I've been making progress lately and fighting back against that helpless, self-defeating mentality, but it's pretty brutal and very slow going.
