IT used to be snowball fights, but now that I am old and dull I like staying in and drinking hot chocolate while thinking SUCK IT, COLD WEATHER

Friendship or queerbaiting?

[dreemyweird]

I know that this thread has much potential of becoming bugfuck insane, but nevertheless I'll venture to ask: how do you distinguish (in TV shows, in films) between queerbaiting and strong same-sex friendships? Because I often find myself wondering just how one would go about depicting a same-sex friendship without getting dogpiled for its "unrealized potential".

And is queerbaiting even a thing in books?

Fic request thread of great justice~

Grades!

I got my grades back for fall semester. All A's and I'm apparently a Dean's Scholar now (4.0 gpa!) which is a step up from being on the Dean's List (at least in my college). Wooo! \o/

So this Christmas shopping thing...

[(Anonymous)]

Fuck me, I'm broke. I spent it all in the span of 24 hours. I got a pretty big bonus check yesterday and today is my pay day, so I got a pretty nice chunk of change. I hadn't done any Christmas shopping until yesterday, and I paid all my bills today....a bunch of shit happened and I'm worried now that I don't have enough money to go buy the tablet and sewing machine I was going to help my siblings get for my parents for Christmas. Gaaaahhhh.

Secret 1 - Fangirl (book)

[transcriptanon]

[Picture is the cover of the book "Fangirl" by Rainbow Rowell. It shows a woman on a computer fantasizing about two men being romantic together. A man approaches the woman and asks something.]

I liked this book. But I would never recommend it to anyone who hadn't had experiences with fandom beforehand. The fact that the 'fandom character' happens to come from a 'broken home,' have serious soxial anxiety and happens to be a 'cardboard cutouts and posters EVERYWHERE, obsessed fan' kind of rubbed me the wrong way. There was also the fact that a majority of her fanfic writing was focused on obsessively writing about a slash One True Pairing and how much the appeal of fanfiction was about her One True Pairing.

I'm not saying that people like her don't exist (she actually reminded me a lot of one of my bet friends who happens to have low self esteem, some emotional problems and ships Destiel quiet a bit (I'm not in the Supernatural fandom)). But she has strong hobbies and interests outside of fandoms.

I like fanfiction, I've written a little bit, I have One True Pairings (including slash ones). But I think people whose main reason to be fandom are GAY One True Pairings are kind of missing the point (more LGBT representation would be great, but some people just miss the point).

I have A LIFE OUTSIDE of fandom however. I'm not going to go and say that "OMG FANDOM SHOULD GET BETTER REPRESENTATION BECAUSE THIS IS LIKE RACISM" because people who say that are douche rockets. I just wish this book didn't read like the author read two pages of Tumblr and based the character off of it.

I'm so sorry for the wall of text.
