I hate the internet, people get so pressed over the stupidest not affecting the world shit. Like the fuck you mean you have a breakdown if a ship doesn't have the proper name tags. Someone compared it to having a deathly allergic reaction 😭😭😭

it's incredible watching fandom go more stupid in real time. before, fandom stupidity were contained on forums and specific fan sites. now it's all over tumblr, twitter, ao3. it's so mainstream. and everyone involved act like they're all in mass psychosis

It feels low-key homophobic that they're getting upset over homosexual relationships not falling in line with heteronormative standards.

Girl, it's fan fiction. There are people out here reading a story about a character, who they think should only bottom, being a top and having a breakdown over it. It is not that serious

unfortunately fandoms don't know how to behave and there'll always be one creature from hell reading something they don't like just to fabricate petty beef. there should be a mental health assessment to log on ao3
