Re: Drama with a fandom friend
(Anonymous) 2017-06-18 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)Yeah, that was my reaction as well. She's in her 20s, but that doesn't really mean anything, I guess. I think I'm slowly coming to terms with the idea of letting go. It just bums me out. I thought explaining to her that I had no idea it was her or that she was angry, that it was all a misunderstanding, would be the olive branch. I wouldn't really know what else to do. Especially because the issue she's angry over is the most ridiculous thing ever.
No one probably cares, but: It's a slow news cycle in our fandom, especially when it comes to one particular actor, so his fans started focusing on his hair. I know. Now, lots of fans have preferences for how their fave looks, or even speculate why someone got a haircut (maybe they're in a new project?). But for this guy there's a group that seems to think they can judge his mental/emotional/psychological state by his hair. I know. The tweet I saw took it even further and said sth like: short hair makes him sad. And I'm sorry, but that's beyond ridiculous. I told my friend 'IMO that's fans obsessing and projecting'.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-18 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)Looking back, I find I already sort of had to dial back certain opinions or accept stuff I'd usually find stupid. But yeah, I have no one else to gush or talk about this stuff with, so I put up with it. This is a bit too far though.
