#this fandom wins again 🥂🥂

[ao3commentoftheday]

Just wanted to say that I'm glad to see you posting again! [No pressure to continue if you have other things going on. Real life is more important than the internet and interests grow and change over time.] BUT, while you are here, I'm glad for it!

I've followed you for years (new blog, but I was following you on my previous one as well). You have always been such a great source of knowledge and perspective. And you'd helped me to come to appreciate fanfic as a community-centered art form. Yes, even the cringey and NSFW stuff... maybe ESPECIALLY that stuff! Anyway, thanks!

I'm so glad I could bring you into a community mindset! Ever since I realized that was the key, it's made a real difference.

Life is indeed life-ing real hard right now, but I find myself coming to this blog the way I used to go to the comments sections on my fic, to find some much-needed levity and yes, community.

I won't make any promises about my ability to be around this much all the time, but I'm enjoying being back and I'll take that as a win ❤️

Here's to the cringe and the nsfw and all of the other things that make fandom the place we call home 🥂

SaL anon here friend since LS premieres tonight, which I know we don't usually have a lot of fanfare for but I'm holding out hope for this season. Let's face it bestie, we could use a win this (TV) year, and the final ever season of RNM was so deeply disappointing (only not reaching the level of being the most disappointing thing ever by the existence of RNM S2), and 6a of OG has waffled between boring and aggrevating (with one or two bright spots), and nothing about 6b we know so far is giving

me much hope (namely that KR is still in charge). So yeah, since Tim's spent all his time on it I would really appreciate LS giving us some serotonin so we can FINALLY get back to our roots and talk songs. Between the 21 episodes of RNM and 6a we've done 3 or 4 songs maybe?? It's depressing. I'd like to finally get good, coherent storylines *double glares at OG and RNM* to flail about. At least I feel confident Tim won't actually have "Tarlos" appear at the Tarlos wedding 🙄🙄🙄.

Hi my friends, and happy Yee-haw Weewoo day! Fingers crossed we will finally get fed some good good food because damn could we use the win. A couple of my RNM s4 posts about m*ria showed up in my notifications recently and I got salty all over again after I’d been doing so well using Vlambase retail therapy to try and drown my frustrations. And I think the fact the 911 fandom is sooo dead right now speaks to the quality of 6a. I’m excited to see if we FINALLY get a good opening knowing that Brad is back and it looked like some cool stuff was being filmed before Christmas, but he also did the s5 premier and even the escaped zoo animals couldn’t compensate for the writing being focused on literally anything but the firefam and saving people during a blackout so I’m trying to manage expectations. The rest though? Lots of recycled ideas, the same writers, and untrained directors doesn’t exactly spark joy or excitement knowing what that has meant during KR’s tenure. Love that the show seems content with continuing to do the same thing over and over and hoping they will get a different result 🙄🙄🙄

But as much as I am a far more casual viewer for LS (I’m usually pretty content with what we get and aside from the Owen-centricity issue I don’t usually have any major complaints) I would be THRILLED if we could finally be given enough to work with to do some songs again! I’m also looking forward to getting a wedding that’s actually about BOTH characters getting married AND where we might get to hear some vows which both RNM AND 911 robbed us of. 

And okay, you KNOW that we are going to go into the wedding episode and see a “Tarlos” banner Nancy made now, right? I can *feel* the jinx happening as we speak...🤣

Anyway, cheers and fingers crossed and all that good stuff! 🥂 I am READY for some easy enjoyment tv and crunching popcorn while people’s lives are in peril. Let’s goooooo!
