People who do shipping as activism always come across as just virtue signaling to me. Like "look at me i ship the right people the right way not like those other gross shippers. Please give me my Good Person Points™"

Its soooo shallow and performative in a way that gives me a gross feeling having dealt with knowing one of those types personally.

I'm not a fan of all those dysfunctional family role designations, but I do think that Ron Weasley is a Glass Child.

I imagined Murderbot as brunette and feminine, certainly not as Alexander Skarsgård

I wish more fans were open to admitting that they want heavily moderated, fans-only, positivity-only, dissenters-are-banned spaces for their faves, ships, idols, whatever. There's nothing wrong with such clearly delineated spaces and honestly I think that would solve a lot of problems.

But whenever it's suggested, so many of them seem to look down on those spaces, refuse to look for them, and won't admit that's what they want out of fandom, even if they complain about 'haters' and 'antis' existing around them 24/7. Like they want that kind of space, but only unofficially, because... idk?

Is it some kind of misplaced pride?

Games thread!

That's something I miss from ye olde days. Granted, we had to be secretive and exclusive 'cause I was in the slasher coms, but we kept our communities to people who all had the same fave or pairing or even t/b designation and it was (mostly) a peaceful time (within the community).

Really? What makes you think? And which child is the one getting all the time and energy?

I personally don’t see it. Molly and Arthur love all of their kids and genuinely seem to care about them in the here and now but also their futures. That’s how it should be but I can tell you it’s not as common as people want to think.

[(Anonymous)]

I think about this every so often.

"Why are people here criticizing my fave?"

Well, is criticism actually banned?
If not, why isn't it?
If it is banned, where are your mods?
If your mods aren't doing anything, where are the complaints against them?
If they won't listen, why are you still there?

They don't want their own space. They want all spaces to be the way the want them to be and for all the bad people to either stop doing fandom wrong or go away.

It's OK, babe. Though my favourite band aren't outward with it, they've done enough dodgy stuff (abusing & cheating on ex-girlfriends, making "humorous' TikToks using abuse victims testimony, invalidating male victims because "he seemed fine around their abuser," talking out of their asses about people with mental illness) that though I still like their music, I don't think I would want to have them in my life personally.

[(Anonymous)]

I always sort of pictured it as vaguely Southeast Asian and butch, but I don't even think Skarsgård pictured Murderbot as Skarsgård.

Molly and Arthur love all of their kids

iirc Ginny got her own robes and wand and books at the start of the Chamber of Secrets. Ron got various hand-me-downs from his brothers and only started being good at spell work when he got his own wand due to breaking Charlie's old one.

That is really weird. I only do fandom on Reddit these days and honestly it’s so nice. I love being surrounded by people who love the thing I love and talking about how much we love the thing we love. It’s the closest I’ve found to the days of LJ. If someone comes along to troll or fight or whatever, the mods just ban them and delete their bullshit. Sometimes a lot of us are able to downvote it first so their karma gets tanked.

Girl clothes are different than boy clothes. I can see a school as prestigious and strict Hogwarts not feeling very comfortable with a female student wearing her brothers' hand-me-down. And I say this as someone who went to a school with a strict private school where the girls had to wear skirts. (Not of course considering the author being a complete terfasaurus)
