sometimes

[mimesere]

there are only three words that really convey my feelings about certain situations that seem to be happening with distressing frequency of late in Fandom At Large. I present those words to you all today.

Damn, white people.

That is to say, yeah. I have no cred to speak of, but even I know bullshit when I see it.

*petting* I'm sorry people are being horrible to and about you (again! wtf!).

I swear to god, Gloss, fandom has become less welcoming and more willing to embrace its thoughtlessness the longer I've been in it.

horrible to and about you (again! wtf!)
Thank you. It means the world, coming from you.

I don't know what's wrong with (people in) fandom, but the stupid and the bullshit are at near-drowning proportions.

I wanted to reply to her and be like, "Quote it. Right here, right now. Quote me *exactly* where the racial slur is."

But that would entail feeding the crazy and I won't do it.

Feeding the crazy is never a good strategy, no.

AND YET.

I know that it's hard, darling, but ignoring them really is the only way to deal with them. Just...ask people to stop sending you the links. It's not perfect, but I can't think of anything else that will keep you okay and I want for you to be okay.

*clinging*
Done, and done.

I'll be okay. I do have to make sure that G. never finds out about this latest round, or she might go Inigo Montoya on everyone's ass. :/ (That came out wrong. Sorry, am raw and not expressing things properly.)

*nuzzle* Miss G is wonderful (*mwah* to her), as are you, and you don't need to apologize in my journal.
