Not people saying “Fandom has always been like this” in that vent post I made. No. It hasn’t always been like this. Fandom has NEVER been like this until recently and if you were in fandom pre-tumblr purge, pre-twitter, pre-netflix boom, pre-tiktok....then you would fucking know it was nothing like this.
We still had the drive to create. We still sold prints and charms and made zines...but it was never like this.
The introduction of streaming, binge shows that drop all at once, tiktok and vine RIP i still love u vine but you were the beginning of a particularly ugly era) creating this bite sized, quick paced ‘content’ era of creation and it bled out into fucking everything else.
Fandoms didn’t die down when the show ended or the season was over. You didn’t mass unfollow artist, writers or moots just because they changed fandoms. There wasn’t this need to please the algorithm in order for your posts to get seen by people and enjoyed.
Fandoms used to last YEARS. Star Trek is literally the oldest running fandom out there and you got people in there that could care less about the new stuff and still have been happily prancing through their fucking fifty year old fandom today. Hell, even SPN after all it’s fuckups and shitshows has a dedicated fanbase STILL creating tons of art and fic.
There is no patience anymore. No calm feeling of taking in fandom and friends at a pace that which doesn’t make you stressed and is still fun.
Do I blame fandom for this? Of course not, but people are complacent with it and start changing their vocab to accommodate and end up making the situation so deep it cant be fixed.
We call Art & Fic Content now, completely stripping the value of what it is to a level of consumerism instead of personal entertainment & community bonding.

very, very tired of these
dramas
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you wouldn’t call a person who loves fictional gore / horror movies as a killer will you
then why would you THNIK it’s as same as REAL crime and shit when it comes to other things?
what you like in fictional, DOES NOT, reflect who YOU ARE or what you SURRPORT in real life. 
it’s not healthy, I know, to keep watching these Internet dramas (should leave these hellsites) , but fuck
if I want to even see people’s art and stuff, I need to blend in I’m just an outsider
(I want to talk and interact with people but the way we see things is so, so different)(I’m not me nor one of them(I’m none)
(when I see the heated hatred comments people posted, I think I will forever be like this, with no one can talk, or I’ll be called a real shitty name)
(even one of them MIGHT want to know how other people see things (rather than straight out calling names), I wouldn’t be able to communicate and explain to them clearly, as my English is really not well)
it’s even dangerous to say these. I hate it I want to cry

I just don’t want to feel absolutely alone and ashamed and cringe in what I like/media I enjoy, it’s like I have to mask it and it sucks. This applies to so many fandoms and other things, that now I’m conforming and trying not to be interested in anything…grrr it sucks so much

It's four in the morning and nobody asked but I think that one of the things I hate most about getting older is looking back and knowing which of the chubby-cheeked, gap-toothed little kids who collected Pokémon cards and played grounders and scraped their knees on the playground were destined for gaunt faces and blackened fingers, wearing mismatched shoes and screaming slurs at passersby from the sidewalk.
I know which of those children don't make it, now, and whose futures don't reach as far as they think, but I don't know which ones will get better, and I worry for the rest
What could have been done to help, if we'd known back then?
About the kid who gets hit by a car at 16?
About the one who's on meth at 25?
The one who killed herself a few months before graduation?
Horse girls and class clowns and little boys who dressed up as power rangers for Halloween.
Man, what the hell happened?

Us seeing anyone use the word straight in place of the word non-queer: quck how do you feel about transhet people?
You probably assumed binary transhets, what if they say they are transhet because they're an obscure xenogender without much of a chance of finding someone using that label so all attraction is straight to that individual?
Also how do you feel about the split attraction model and how do you feel about acespec and arospec folks?

TW- DEPICTIONS OF PANIC ATTACK, OVERSTIMULATION AND DISSOCIATION, BRIGHT COLORS, also I vent a little :)
Tumblr media
In honor of my most recent new rock-bottom record, decided to draw this scene from @tangledinink fanfic :)
This scene hit really close to home, I’ve just never seen overstimulation and panic attack described so well, it made me feel like maybe im not that odd and there’s actual people who know what it’s like. I dunno what that means for me yet but I feel seen so maybe it’s a good thing or maybe it’s the opposite and it’s just ANOTHER rock bottom I just hit lol
Screenshots of the scene under cut! That way u can c what I mean when I say THIS WRITING IS SO ANGELIC AND IT FEELS LIKE A GENUINE NEW TMNT GENERATION AND UGHHAHAHWHJZNSZ

us: hey before we become attached to you we're telling you straight up that talking is hard and we struggle with it, so there will be times where our responses will come extremely late or come across empty and dry
someone trying to befriend us: oh that's okay! i dont mind!
us: this is not an exaggeration we cannot stress how hard speaking is for us at times please do you really understand before we get our hopes up?
them: absolutely! i understand its okay! talking sucks sometimes its cool :) I'll talk for all of us
also them: you never talk to me it feels like im always doing all the talking and the only one trying in this friendship 💢 try and at least pretend u want to be my friend 🖕

I wish mental health services were more easily accessible and certain mental illnesses weren't still demonized in the field

“Why are you crying?”
Hanzo’s fingers slid over your shoulders and turned you to look at him.
“Just feels like everything’s falling apart..”
“Nothing is falling apart, the people in your life are not going to leave nor do they hate you.”
“I just.. I don’t understand.”
The archer frowned, he knew this feeling all too well, like you’re fighting with everyone in your life, like it was all coming to a sudden end.
“There is nothing wrong with having feelings. You are merely human.”
Tears poured down your cheeks as you stared defeated at the floor, maybe all the things that had happened this month were finally getting to you.
“This is not the end, you will get through this. Just like you did with everything else.”

How fucked up in the head can you be to say something like "Barry losing his mom isn't such a big deal" and "he should get over it". Are you fucking okay. Are you aware of the words you type on your keyboard. Do you need me to beat some sense into you because I fucking will.
