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 (for those who struggle with captchas and stuff).
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.
Unpopular Ships
Obligatory Masturbation Thread
Fandoms you wish existed
How old are you?
What series have you always meant to watch/read/play/etc. but have never?
Time and location
Female-centric works
How do you feel about Tumblr?
Pet thread
Guilty pleasure thread
Favorite old shows
First fandom?

Re: TW: self-harming, depression
(Anonymous) 2012-07-29 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)I'm genuinely sorry if any of my comments on this thread were among the ones that set you off, and I'll try to be more compassionate and less of a squeeing health fangirl in future.
Re: TW: self-harming, depression
(Anonymous) 2012-07-29 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)Thank you.. seriously. I know some people really enjoy healthy eating, etc. and that's fine, I mean, that doesn't bother me. It's just when people talk about feeling better than, superior to, etc. fat people because omg they eat right and exercise and they're ~thin! so they're better than those icky fat people that it gets really... nasty and triggery and shit.
The whole "I secretly feel superior to fat people" with a side of "fat people are ugly and no one finds them attractive but chubby chasers" was what really triggered me. It's that kind of shit that makes me not want to leave the house, you know? This shit is the reason my girlfriend has to tell me twenty-five times that I look okay before I'll go out, why I never feel like I look good or pretty in anything I wear, why I self-harm and all that fun bullshit. And nobody ever really thinks about that before they say that shit -- or they don't care. And then I feel like they'd just think, if I killed myself, "Oh well, one less ugly fatty in the world" without even caring that it's rhetoric like theirs that makes me feel like I'd rather die than keep trying.
Your comment kind of really did, but it's alright.. I guess, it's just, a lot of people just don't think this stuff through a whole lot? idk. I'm probably just going to get called a stupid butthurt fatty for this, anyway (not by you, I mean, but you know, by other people).
idk, I was going to go somewhere with this comment but the steam's been lost. I hope my girlfriend gets home soon, I need a hug now.
