also, I know I’ve been venting on this app more than I ever wanted or anticipated to, but I just gotta say: hugs and soup to all the lovely people promoting the camaraderie and healing that’s come of the toxic and sometimes straight up harmful vitriolic fan discourse over the last few days. I knew I was poking a bear with the high salt content lately but it’s so nice to see from the tags and comments etc. that there’s still overwhelmingly a beautiful safe space ship within this community. the real world is painful right now (to say the least), and amidst all the hurt and harm on- and offline no matter what corner you turn to, I appreciate that so many people still are out here helping to shape fandom into an inclusive space to connect and heal and learn and grow and also just have fun 💛 that’s the power of community babey! raising a glass to calypso with you!! & boo to the racists and homophobes please leave us alone once and for all thanks!!
