Ahh, yes, your second paragraph is really what I was referring to. I don't want my fandom escape spaces to suddenly become full of the same horrible news I'm trying to get away from. I just don't know what people think it will accomplish to insist on posting about horrible political news everywhere. But I see this sentiment so often that I was starting to wonder if I was missing something.

"I don't want my fandom escape spaces to suddenly become full of the same horrible news I'm trying to get away from."

Same. I think people have the right to vent, but that should be kept to a designated channel or DMs. Last spring I once posted on another site about a fun convention I went to, and a complete stranger jumped on to rant about current events. Nothing about my post was political. It really ruined my mood and I told him this was inappropriate to unload on me when I live in a red state and to stop, but he didn't. It's things like that I can't stand, I hate bucket crabs lol. Do some breathing exercises. But that's probably a privilege to do too for these people.

An artist on Bluesky said something I really liked, "we all watch the same news" and there's no point in rehashing it when we're all going through shit. It's better to share mutual aid or resources for activism or personal survival instead.

Right?? Like, damn. You think we aren't aware of what is going on??? I voted against this shit three times. I HATE what is going on in this country. I absolutely hate it. But being worked up 24/7 and bringing it into literally every space I visit is simply not going to accomplish a thing beyond raising my blood pressure.
