maligned by the narrative

you won't find joy in fandom if you:

just want clout and no real connections

avoid being earnest about what you like

take everything extremely seriously

mock people who express a different opinion from yours

think being a fan of something or someone is a contest that you can win by being the only true understander or engaging in toxic positivity re any of your fave's creative/personal endeavors and feel the need to defend them from any kind of criticism

become a drama blog trying to disprove antis who are already trolling or showing up to the conversation in bad faith

you will find joy if you:

unfollow/block people who engage too much in any of the things from the above list

reblog people's posts and leave chatty or encouraging tags sometimes

dm someone! make a friend! it's never as scary as your brain might make you believe

remember we're blogging about fictional people (and/or real people who we can never truly know)

some are hallucifer because to Sam same functional thing happening
