Featuring my Favorite Fandoms

“online fandom bestie that you once shared intense intimacies with but don’t really talk to anymore simply bc we drifted into new blorbo obsessions” is such a specific type of relationship that has to be impossible to explain to anyone who hasn’t experienced it

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

one person's "ugghh this trope is so overdone" is another person's "oooooohohohohohohohoho"

zutaranti (aka zutarantii on tumblr) realized that nobody was buying her shitty "apology" and has finally deactivated her twitter account. you can tell she was never sorry. she was just hoping that her dumb kataang fanclub would eat it up and let her get away with it again like they did everything else. her rabid followers are back to their usual habits and she'll probably rebrand under a new identity because these people are addicted to toxicity.
