I know I'm commenting rather randomly here, but I wanted to say I was sorry to see that fandom just went all to hell and you got dragged in as well.
I'm generally a quiet lurker of journals and in the past day everyone I enjoyed following has more or less disappeared! It's bullshit that people like me, who minds their own business and simply enjoys fandom, has to pay because of people like the twitter moron I've read about.
It's even worse that someone like you who's involved in making fandom fun has to actually f-lock their journal. So yeah, just thought I'd drop in and give some support instead of staying quiet as I normally would.
First off, your comments totally not random and is much appreciated! Second, you may lurk journals, but you post like the greatest fics ever (and single-handedly redeem some of the twattery the SON fandom can have from time to time). Third, yeah, it sucks that the majority of the fandom has to suffer because the idiocy of a few, but that seems to be the theme of both real life and the net.
And I really hated having to f-lock my journal, but I just couldn't risk leaving it open right now. You know you've been on my f-list for ages though, right? So you can still see all my posts, except for a couple that I made private. Also, thanks so much for the support. I truly truly appreciate it! : )
I really don't get the neverending cycle and what purpose it serves (cause what's the point of killing the fandom). I'm hoping it ends real quick, cause there's only so many blows I think we can take (and we've had quite a few).
But yeah, thanks. I really appreciate that and will let you know about the helping thing.
