Ya know what rejoining the online Supernatural fandom is like now? Like going through a portal and ending up in purgatory. 😬🙃
Like, you feel alone, there's a few active blogs that are still posting and interacting daily but those that do, have already formed little tribes amongst themselves, there's alot of dead blogs and so many monsters (antis/hellers) arguing over actors that are the very reason why the show ran for so long.
Where did the old fandom that I used to love interacting with back in the old days on LiveJournal? Times seemed so simple then. We may not have had the same ships or agreed with fan theories or interpretations, but it wasn't as intense and extreme as it is now. 💔🥺
So this post is like an online summoning spell to reconnect the true fans on SPN, whether you ship destiel, wincest, j2, cockles, or any other pairings and refuse to take part in bashing/hating any of the actors in Supernatural.
11 years ago when I was active in the fandom, it was literally a virtual family, an escape from my own chaotic and broken family in IRL. It wasn't just the show that gave me hope on hard days battling family drama and severe mental health issues, it was the wonderful fandom that sure, had its differences but never was as toxic and black and white as it is now.
Reblog this post, let's make a safe space for the fans that just wanna have fun and enjoy the show that we have been left with after 15 years.
