I like baseball, los angeles, and court tv shows.
reminds me of the awful "follow back" discourse of yore. lotta people hate anybody with popularity and feel that a penance must always be paid for it.

absolutely not the only cause! but when you have sites close down that are primarily JUST toxic fandom, it's going to set the tone elsewhere as well. a lot of the toxicity is just shades of the same bizarre infighting, woke 1 arguing, abusive speech that made tumblr unbearable

having spent so much of my life on livejournal/tumblr, none of this feels new (raise your hand if you were there to witness the pinnacle of deranged supernatural fandom), and imo, in part, it entered the mainstream when tumblr died and those people moved elsewhere and brought the toxic with them

bro vetoes AI safety bills and tech guardrails because he's on the take. he re-opened california during covid bc the restaurant lobby asked him to. the trans shit. the list goes on and on and on. regardless of my hate for him, he's just a dangerous pick from optics. the oppo is deeper than we know!

a lot of people are way more comfortable discussing GI symptoms and diseases casually, which is so important given how much younger colorectal cancers are hitting.

you're not incorrect, but there is progress; a lot more open discussions on menstrual problems in mixed-gender settings, and after the james van der beek news, my huge group chat was checking in to make sure we're taking bowel health seriously. so much has improved from when I was younger!

Sorry but people just don't care about the difference between someone who gives the gestapo every penny they ask for, and someone who does the same thing but frowns and shakes their head while they do it

crime on public transit means fewer people take it, and most of the people taking it aren't able to afford other means of transit. not sure why we ended up with a group of people who think progressivism is "people should get to do crime whenever they feel it like, fuck everybody else."
