I picked the worst week to follow the "destiel" tag on tumblr -- if you thought I was nuts for having three posts for the After Elton tournament, that's NOTHING compared to the shit on tumblr. The entire "destiel" tag is full of people promoting the poll, and a little competition can be fun. But both the Destiel fans and the Sterek fans are.... waay intense. Like, there's bashing and what sounds like tumblr-abuse and the whole environment feels kind of shitty.
Destiel fans are all "we've been developing for four years now, you Sterek fans can have your turn when you're older," only sometimes more insulting, and have been bugging the actors of Supernatural and their channel (CW) to vote and promote the pairing (the actors apparently support Destiel. sweet). Over all, they're kind of being petty dicks.
On the other hand, Sterek fans are all "our pairing could actually happen, so we have more right to winning this than you." Only on average it's a bit nicer, but I understand that some of the comments (but not all) are that insulting. Of course these fans are also bugging the actors of Teen Wolf and their channel (MTV) to vote and promote the pairing. Over all, they're also kind of being
petty dicks.
So, what started out as kind of fun has suddenly gotten waaaaaaaaay out of hand and damnit fandoms, I think you ruined the spirit of the competition. I mean, if we were all truly open-hearted fans, we should be suggesting the pairings wrestle in pudding and lick the chocolate off each other's naked bodies. I mean seriously. Way more fun.

On another note, there has been a total of four things on my mind this past month:
1. The Stupid Poll of Petty Dicks.
2. Moving Out and Onto My Campus Apartment.
3. My Dean/Castiel Big Bang Art which I'm a bit behind on, but once I move out it's FOCUS TIME.
4. Politics.
Oh dear god have I started paying attention to this. I recently subscribed to the Philip DeFranco Show on youtube, and it's a show where Philip DeFranco talks about the news which includes politics. Tumblr also has fun with politics which turn out to be my favorite posts to reblog, go figure. Not to say I deeply pursue it, but when I come across it, I'm actually interested.
I've been thinking a lot about how Mitt Romney as a political figure frightens me as a woman. Some of the stuff I've read on him, which by no way makes me an expert, makes me really nervous that he would take away some basic female rights (birth control for one, but again, I might be wrong), and every time he opens his mouth, he seems to insult an entire group of people. The people of Pakistan and not-rich in America are just two examples.
I don't necessarily want to seek out conversations about politics, but I am interested in the topic in a open-minded, discussion based setting.
