I know there are just some parts of fandom I need to stay away from. But Iām feeling masochistic today (because of unrelated reasons including currently-living-space-chaos, work stress, unknown cause low level anxiety, etc) and something came across my dash and I went on a little bit of a spiral...
I think the problem is tied to the fact that I...canāt think of an MCU movie that I disliked. Like, there are things I would change, there are things that could be improved, movies I might not put on as a first choice. But I had a thoroughly enjoyable time watching all of them.
And sometimes it feels like Iām supposed to take a side. Or that I have no taste/low standards/too easy to please.
Or that we are all just watching just...vastly different movies. This happens a lot, I find, with the Civil War discourse (TM), but todayās was on an objectively good movie. Like sure, any movie has issues, people can have differing opinions...but talking about how terrible it was and making up weird derogatory nicknames? Like what?
Anyway, fandom stresses me out sometimes, I need to go cool off from this anxiety attack that Iāve had for two days and crawl back into my little bright soft oblivion corner.
[I say ābright soft oblivion cornerā when I have 3 WIP that could be classed in theĀ āhorrorā genre. Thatās my definition of bright and soft okay guys!]Ā
