Oh god everything I've seen of the Star Wars fandom is that it's like that old story about the Virginia trash mountain that caught fire. I've had to blacklist it.

Fandom has never really been my thing, thank god, and I do not regret this tendency of mine, because HOOOOOOLY CRAP. It's at the point where I'm kinda worried that I SHOULDN'T be making those posts about Piers Anthony, since I'm worried folks will interpret it to mean, "This man is a pedophile and should be BURNED" when all I want to talk about is that his books had an influence on us.

Some of tumblr's "radical politics" are the most regressive things I've ever seen, in a shiny pseudoradical wrapper. It's bizarre and weird to watch.
