on the one hand i get what you mean but on the other idk maybe I'm just a total fidgeter so i can't imagine talking while doing NOTHING.

Although some of them have done some sus stuff , i remember when ones i watched were smaller and seemed very genuine. I remember one was usually always very respectful of victims and so in the Lululemon murder case when she brought up the one "victim's" theft habits I felt like that was kinda off but then.... when the truth was uncovered..

"oh . now it makes sense".

( GOODAMN though imagine risking committing MURDER over overpriced yoga pants when the store apparently already gives you credits or something to get their clothes. I walked in that store ONCE out of curiosity to check the prices. found a sports bra priced at $50 and then walked out like "I am TOO BROKE for this store clearly)

to be clear the victim in quotes i mentioned turned out to have been the killer The other ones was dead and well she tried passing this bogus break in story that didn't add up and .. yeah

Have you ever dealt with fandom antis?

How did you deal with it?

(Anonymous) 2026-03-11 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
The director, Emerald Fennell, wrote this about the film β€œIt is too slippery, too wild, too good to distill into two hours of film. Instead, what I have attempted to do is adapt my own experience of reading it for the first time. It is an adaptation of a feeling: my first disemboweling by the baby god.” Do with that what you will.

honestly if i even do bother talking to them.. i like to flip their weird ass logic on its head "oh yeah how do I know you don't wanna do that in real life?"

You got me. I want nothing more than to be kidnapped by an dominant lesbian. While I'm at it, do you know when the supervillain convention is in town. I wanna see if any of the pretty lady villainesses wanna take me hostage..

And maybe get Dr. Doom's autograph. That'll go for mad money on ebay.

And to any who try to suicide bait me

"pft I'm not going to do your dirty work for me? want me dead? come kill me yourself coward. and I'm behind a vpn so have fun on hard mode, bitch"
Edited (ETA: sorry if i sound aggro. I'm a little cranky because allergies are driving me up the wall. I'm wearing a face mask in bed so as not to irritate my nose UGH) 2026-03-11 07:46 (UTC)

Am I the only one who was in a fandom, way before tumblr was even a thing, where people cared about "canon" pairings and what the writers said? Who remembers conservative fans raising a stink about slash/explicit works? When people were AWFUL about other people's fanfic?

I keep hearing about fandom being a paradise before tumblr, and I have no idea what they're on about. Because that was... not my experience.

(Anonymous) 2026-03-11 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
The thing is, though, fandom has always been judgy. It's just that we now see it without rose coloured glasses because it's more accepted to be in a fandom.

Tell them I'm going to ship even harder. And if they tell me they think my ship is sibling coded, I tell them that is a bonus for me.

Haha! I showed this to my wife and it made her start laughing out loud.

...what the actual fuck. Looks like OP was right, lol.

Do you consume true crime?

(Anonymous) 2026-03-11 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
What certain ones?

Doctor, Dentist, Hospital?

(Anonymous) 2026-03-11 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Are you afraid of them or avoid them at all? I just went to the dentist for the first time in years and I'm curious!

Yes. Got some messages at some point on Tumblr from someone who was horrified at a Tolkien fan liking villains and shipping them. Just ignored them.

Right? I honestly don't know if it was the same as now, but fandom has always had terrible parts of it.

Re: Kinda based on #1

(Anonymous) 2026-03-11 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but it was a lot easier to avoid/find your own niche. People were a lot more thicked skinned as well, I believe, and generally shrugged off death threats/you will burn in hell type comments. The anonymous aspect was a big part of that, I think.

I used to be very interested in the history of crime and crime solving and watched a lot of tv shows. I stopped a few years ago, though. It was honestly not good for my mental health.

One show I remember loving was Murder Maps.

Dentist freaks me out.

Depends on the anti. Anti that's just there, I make fun of them until they blow up. Anti who is a mod? I leave.

(Anonymous) 2026-03-11 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
I completely agree, and I think a lot of it is the internet being so mainstream and the lack of proper forums and websites. I miss it too.

(Anonymous) 2026-03-11 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Honestly both would probably bother me. I do love classical versions of things though so I might give the soundtrack a listen!

This, exactly this. You could find a niche and be happy.

I've heard of people playing "One" by U2 at weddings. That song's about an AIDS patient!

I have no doubt it was like that before, but I managed to worm my way into the slash side of fandom early in my fandom career (90s). The part where you had to know someone to get in. So I was pretty protected from "only canon couples" because none of our OTP would be canon; so many places forced any kind of slash to be R/NC-17 just by existing that very few people gave a damn what actually went on in the fic; and the fic was behind so many walls that no one really wanted to risk their access to the community by being dicks about other people's works.

There was still drama, but because of the small and insular nature of the communities we all knew the source of the drama was personal conflict. People couldn't really get away with moralizing, which is honestly the bane of fandom right now.

I miss the days when it was understood to be a freak community for a community of freaks.
