I've been seriously practicing Danish as a third language through Duolingo (and some books) for about...545 days.
So like, to see some of my feed and stuff talking about Margrethe abdicating and Frederik becoming king early in the morning, forgetting I had followed Danish speaking accounts had me like:

my toxic trait is that i actually enjoyed The OA.
i am still glad it got canceled, just to be clear! i enjoyed watching something that felt different (if a bit poorly planned and even downright ridiculous at times) because most tv shows/films feel indistinguishable from one another. to this day i sometimes don't know if i enjoyed something because it is actually good or because it was at least different.
anyways, then everyone got. uh. incredibly weird about The OA. even for the Fandom Brain types it was off the rails. that show triggered something in people like they were sleeper agents on a mission to be as obnoxious and insufferable as possible. i still don't really know why, other than the casting call for a trans actor to play a trans character going viral on this website? and i guess Brit Marling interacted with fans a bit too much and fed into the parasocial obsession? i still feel like the response to the OA being canceled was totally disproportionate. that was during the years where i hadn't returned to tumblr yet, to be fair, so maybe i am underestimating the fervor. but still.
to this day it is one of the few times fandom culture has actually ruined (for lack of a better term) something for me. i have not rewatched the show since that stupid billboard stunt some fans pulled. mostly because it makes me cringe to be reminded of everything, but also because i have this tiny fear of that same switch being flipped inside my head, lol. i am annoying enough as it is i don't need to be brainwashed into making Netflix propaganda.

theres a million blogs these days with names like "puppygirl-macrobulge" and "netflix-for-girl-balls" and whatnot who make 150 posts a day like "theyre all out of 'piss from a girl who's been holding it in all day playing factorio' at trader joes, whats the fcuking point of it all" and i gotta say, i didnt expect that to be its entire own genre of posting in the 2020s.

I actually have a hard time explaining my type; but perhaps it just boils down to the fact that they must be admirable and impressive in my point of view. I am instantly attracted to someone who's just incredible and inspiring (imo). Problem is, I am not easily impressed lmao. Intelligence, looks, personality, principles and aspirations...they all have to be in the right flavor. I can be attracted looks but then it fizzles out when there's really nothing behind it. I like smart people, but I vehemently dislike those who think they're better than everyone else. Nice guys bore me to death,, while quiet types are ok, but someone good in conversation is better.
....the hell...this so specific it's getting to the heights of 'does this person even exist?'
