healingmirthI'm sort of poking at a fic idea (having failed at WIP amnestying the stuff I thought about last month, because I couldn't stop shifting around the existing words) but I am, like. Mildly terrified of fandom right now?
It'd be for the dominant ship for a big fandom on a currently-popular thing, and I made the mistake of reading some of the comments people are leaving on fic on ao3, and just. I can't with that, y'all.
Also? This thing where you can see people's ao3 user ID # on their profiles is just making me feel very, very old, but also it was sort of fun to hop around to the profiles of people who were in, like, a Stargate fandom when it launched to see what their number is. Or people who I remember from yuletide.
Also x2 in the feeling old division, there was a tweet going around that was some version of where did you discover fic/fandom: LJ/ff.net...idk, Wattpad, tumblr, ao3? And for me it was LJ, but like. yahoo groups? listservs? Anyway. old. grumpy. I'm fine, this is all fine.
My parents are both covid-vaccinated now, which is great, and which they both handled much better than my dumbass cat handled being deposited into the no-contact vestibule at the vet's office for his annual checkup today. "We just kept him wrapped in a towel the whole time," the vet said. "It was fine."

Date: 2021-03-28 02:57 am (UTC)I mostly don't think I'm actually likely to post anything new that brings trouble to me, just mild annoyance, but then I look at the Current Nonsense and figure someone will click through to my profile and then burn me at the metaphorical stake for passing through RPF fandoms.
