Long time no post....
Hey guys. It's been a while huh? I really didn't think it would ever come to a time where I wouldn't post or check out Livejournal, but I guess it finally happened...
I guess there are several reasons for that, and I think one of the main reasons is that I've kind of fallen off of the fandom bus.
And by falling off of the fandom bus, I mean fallen off the Supernatural bus. Supernatural has been my happy place for many, many years, but Dabb and the current writers have completely destroyed it. The only thing I can remember from season 14 is how angry it left me. I started downloading s15, but I felt so much dread, that I haven't watched a single episode yet. And honestly? Hardly any of the spoilers I've seen make me want to watch it. I think I'm just gonna sit back and see how bad Dabb will fuck up the ending to descide if I'm even gonna acknowledge there is a season 15...
And fandom. God, has a big part of that turned into a trashfire. Twitter is just kids playing purity police, and even here I wasn't feeling like home anymore. This was a place for me to put out my thoughts, positive or negative. But then I read a rant from someone about how people dared to be negative about Supernatural while it's the last season and how dare people ruin their fun.
...
So. I guess I kinda pulled back? I'm basically only active on Discord these days, because I've found a few servers where people are accepting of all opinions, and I can actually speak my mind there whitout worrying of apparenty pissing people off. I haven't felt like making any fanart or consuming any fanworks because right now, the joy is basically completely gone. I'm hoping taking a step back and waiting untill it's all over to carefully dip back in might rekindle some of the love. I mean, I still love the first few seasons, and Dean is still my most loved character of all time, so the love isn't completely gone. But I hope in a few months I can go back in without feeling angry or frustrated.
Ok, that was a bit of a rant and I'm not sure it makes any sense, but I had to get that off my chest.
Other than that I'm okay-ish? I'm worried about the state of the world, but I try not to think about it to long. No working from home for me because I work at a daycare and that's just not something you can do from home.
I hope you're all doing well. <3
