Re: current fandom situation
leiascully has said it much better than me.
And it's still true that fandom is a giant karaoke bar.
On a vaguely related topic, I want to say that I hate the bad rap crackfic gets. Not to mention how many people mislabel their fics by calling it crack. But that's a separate rant.
Crack can be just as well-written, just as intelligent, just as thoughtful as anything else in fandom.
It can also be just as bad, just as stupid, and just plain WTF as anything else in fandom, too.
Either way, it's just as on topic as people's epic angstfests involving Wilson dying of cancer or falling off tall buildings or whatever.
Feel free to hate it! Feel free to wish it'd disappear off the face of the earth! Just don't tell me it doesn't belong in fandom. 'Cause it does.
Fuck this shit. I'm going to make some cookies.
