Saw your post on tumblr and popped on over! I never really did fandom on LJ tbh, but I still used it a lot for personal journalling and made friends that way and still miss the threaded comments and communities and all that. I've mostly been using my DW for dear creator letters for exchanges because I wasn't sure what else to use it for XD (or how to find people here—I know my main fandom is not at all active here, it's all tumblr, discord, or twitter)
I've mostly been into Stranger Things for the past 3 1/2 years (only writing Harringrove, which attracted a lot of hate, so I get anxious talking about it outside of my Tumblr bubble XD) and, like many others, have gone back to Destiel since what happened last November! Haha But I'm reallllllly struggling to find people to talk to in SPN/Destiel! Tumblr is so hit or miss and I deleted my discord account after finding it way too hard to make conversation in that environment ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
TBH, I enjoy fandom spaces that aren't necessarily fandom specific as well as specific places! But I seem to have forgotten how to start conversations...
There's another Stranger Things fan further upthread! Possible connection there :D
I think it was the sudden resurgence of fandom in the wake of Destiel and the confession that made me realize how quiet fandom has been on tumblr since the purge. Suddenly it felt like 2012 again!
I'm not sure what I'll end up posting over here, but I'm happy to chit chat with anyone who wants to, so welcome friend :)
Yeah, I hadn't really noticed how quiet it was until then, either. I thought it was just ST being in between seasons, but obviously it was more than just my corner that was quiet! XD tbh it was a bit overwhelming trying to keep up with it haha
That's cool! I'm still figuring out what else to do here but I'm happy to chit chat, too :D (I also like using DW to keep up with various challenges, which I wouldn't know about otherwise)
Hi! I started tentatively dipping my toes back into Supernatural after last November, and then I got wacked over the head by other fandoms so it never quite happened. But if you want someone to chat with I volunteer!
Supernatural back in November was like a shot in the arm of straight up fandom awesomeness. It was the first time in a long time that I felt like part of something, and I stopped watching the show in like season 7?
Fandom used to be like that all the time. The jokes and memes and people riffing on each other's posts. I really miss that. I want that back. ❤
