It's going to be alright.

Teen Wolf is gearing up again, which means Teen Wolf fandom is gearing up again, which means I'll be double checking my blacklists on tumblr. And maybe downloading tweetdeck so I can block hashtags on twitter. I swear, Teen Wolf is the second fandom that made me hate a ship. (The first was ATLA. Damn you, fandom! Damn you)

Anyway gosh, it's amazing how much I loved this show and fandom when it first started and and it's amazing how much I fucking hate it now.



How do people get off work and then go home and create things? I am so tired. I'm just going to read comforting fic and not think about work tomorrow. ;3; But I promise, I promise (to myself) that I'll start being more prolific. Tomorrow.

Aww, sucks about the Teen Wolf thing. Fair warning - I haven't been active in that fandom in a long while, but Derek and Stiles have always been my happy place, so I'll probably be in gleeful fangirl mode for the next several months. This is the only social media I post at, which means that all the silly shippy squeeing is gonna be here on my DW journal.

So don't feel bad to unsubscribe at will, I won't hold it against you. I can still keep up with your art and stuff via drawesome. For my own peace of mind, I like to keep my flist sympatico with my fannish interests.

[nanslice]

Oh nah, the squeeing doesn't bother me, it's the ship and character bashing that gets to me. Scott was my fave so you know how it goes lmao. But as far as just shipper happiness goes, I've got no problems there.

[goss]

Ugh. I feel like since fandom moved across to Tumblr, the dog-piling and bashing and hate (whether it be for ships, actors, creators, each other) has just gotten out of control. The immature toddler tantruming and over-dramatics are enough to make anyone want to run away.

And in a way it reminds me of how bullies operate. They put down everyone else in order to elevate themselves. And if they're not happy, no one else should be either. :b

[nanslice]

Oh yes, bullying has definitely gotten worse on tumblr! That's the first place I ever got death threats and suicide encouragement, simple for writing Derek/Scott fic. :D :D :'D I think it's because there's no individual community space, all the tags go to the same place and encompass everything, like a huge melting pot. And I guess some people just can't handle seeing ships they don't like lmao.

What is wrong with people???? *headdesk*

[darthneko]

*hugs* That doesn't look like a bad class schedule! Mondays are pretty full, but the rest of the week sounds good.

And I so hear you on both fandom and collapsing when you get home. ugh. I told myself I'd pack when I get home, just two boxes an evening... yeah, that didn't happen yesterday =P bleah.

[nanslice]

Yeah, it's not too bad! Even that Monday is't nearly as bad as my Wednesdays last semester, haha.

It's so annoying! Why does work have to interrupt life so much? Why is that a thing? :(

[tropicsbear]

Download Tweetdeck? I thought it didn't have a mobile app? :O

[nanslice]

I literally have no idea, I barely know what it even is. I just know when I googled "how to block tags on twitter" tweetdeck came up as an option. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

[tropicsbear]

Hahaha XD I use Tweetdeck—it's basically browser-only from what I can tell. (I Googled and found a desktop version? But IDK how legit that is.)

It's pretty useful if you've got multiple Twitter accounts because it helps you manage them (I used to have a pretty active "work" account). And yeah, it's easier to filter content on it.

[nanslice]

Oooh okay. Yeah, I just use the main website since I don't have multiple twitter accounts or anything like that. Plus I've only just started really using twitter, even though I've had an account for sometime, haha.
