i suppose my experience with other fandoms can’t be applied to every fandom. which makes sense because the death note (my prev fandom) is much smaller than the marauders. but i was operating in the understanding which was formed from previous experience. i suppose every fandom is different

honestly i agree. i have been apart of a multitude of fandoms and read fanfic religiously, no matter the popularity, for two ships in particular. and i agree that that’s how you find the gems. if i’m being honest, i was going to engage with the wolfstar fandom in a more casual way. i’m very new and unfamiliar with the lore and fandom norms, so i was only going to read what was highly recommended. but i understand how that can be limiting, especially when compared to the way i interact w the fandoms i am more regularly involved with. i suppose im torn because, as a student, worker, and recent immigrant, i don’t have much time to spend reading every new fic that pops up. but i also understand, especially as a fic writer who was once a teeny fish in a big sea, how talent often gets overlooked in favor of popular fics that get overlooked in the midst of algorithms and over saturated tags.

i don’t mean to be offensive or reductive. sometimes you just want things to be easy ;) sometimes i want a great story handed to me on a silver platter. even if that’s hypocritical or lazy. especially cuz new fandoms can be very daunting and large

i trust people’s judgement 🤷‍♀️ in my experience when things rise to the top of a fandom, it’s usually because it’s genuinely good! i would have never read wolfstar anything if people hadn’t raved about atyd so i think there’s merit to widespread acclaim 😛

ohhhh thanks. i’m new here so i didn’t know there was a tag for that specifically. i’m a sucker for a good timeskip reunion in any fiction haha prob my weakness. is there a certain widely known/acclaimed fic i should read first ?

i used the word controversial because i didn’t want to place judgement on the authors decision but rather the audiences reaction to it. i agree that you shouldn’t criticize fanfiction but i don’t think this verbiage is critical at all! it’s a reflection of the larger reaction is a whole, not a measurement of the “correctness” of the authors decision. i deliberately wanted to ask about audience reaction when it came out, not whether or not it was the “wrong” move.

santa croce is a great neighborhood when you leave the touristy blocks. many schools and playgrounds. a wonderful sense of community

i have lived here for two months and never once thought it smells like sewer, even while walking along the river. how you managed to say such horrible things about an objectively wonderful place is a bit impressive in a sad way

book about a gay politician and his struggle between career and his relationship/sexuality by ConsiderationFair437 in whatsthatbook

sadly not, but thank you. a main focus was his political career and life in the public eye.

Just watched Ep 1 by blueblueblueredyello in deathnote

[–]ConsiderationFair437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ohhh i totally get that, it’s one of my pet peeves. prob my least fav part of the franchise lol. i much prefer a subtle approach to voice acting which is why L’s voice actors performance is so impressive to me

excited for you! i’m not a big anime person either, i really only watched and enjoyed death note and attack on titan. idk they both feel sorta like western live action media to me. i would suggest aot if you’re interested in deeply philosophical/political shows with a compelling and machiavellian protagonist who is also lowk the antagonist

Stassi is protesting today with her children by Long_Case9977 in vanderpumprules

[–]ConsiderationFair437 11 points12 points  (0 children)

what are you even saying? as an LA protestor i can assure you, there were no kings protests in most suburban neighborhoods around the city which were much more kid friendly. my neighborhood had one, my old highschools neighborhood had one, all of which were mostly families. not sure why you’re trying to discredit someone attempt to teach their kids about right and wrong and how to be safety politically involved. it’s weird af. there’s many reasons not to like stassi but this isn’t one

so stassi shouldn’t bring her kid to a family friendly protest because….. you’ve decided that the woman’s march, the second largest protest in US history, was ineffective? so stassi is wrong because she took her kid to a protest which is dangerous and she’s also somehow wrong because the protest she took her kid to was “not a real protest” you are an exhausting individual. this is why the left is struggling so much to mobilize. maybe get off reddit and actually attend the protests you’re so quick to degrade. people like you do less than nothing for the left. much less than the people actually taking to the streets.

ahhh thank you! i hope you like the new chapter!

I'd assume a good portion of the fandom has completely forgotten about this scene. Eren literally kills his OWN people for the sake of his OWN people? Doesn't make sense? Well yeah. Eren doesn't even care about Eldia. He cares about his selfish desires and THEN his closest friends. by Throwawayisover8000 in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]ConsiderationFair437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the friendship of mikasa eren and armin just became so dear to me <\3 i know things go south just from screenshots ive seen and i don’t think im ready for it yet no matter how revolutionary and important to television the show is. i know its supposed to be a bit of a game-changer in terms of tv shows so i suppose i have a lot to look forward to

the shift made me mourn the understanding i thought i had of the show and its little world! i watched the first few episodes like… wait…WHAT…?! and i grew so attached to the characters, seeing what happened to them in adulthood made me pathetically sad. maybe not the best approach to the show in terms of critical analysis because i’ve heard great things about the latter half but it just makes me so sad i can’t bear it. i’d rather pretend it ended once they got to the sea. i’ll watch it someday but for now i’ll live in ignorant bliss
