// serious continuing my "why specifically are fandoms bad and what can be done about it" ramblings, one significant factor detrimenting modern fandom is the erosion of small, well-moderated community spaces led by adults. in lacking time to write a full essay yet, i'll divulge some reasons why.

the power of the mobs are suffocating and solidifying constantly but its okay because cicis pizza gives you a free adult buffet on your birthday

Another golden Tumblr post that warrants the repost because I see this problem *often*. People are losing (or perhaps never properly learning) conflict resolution skills in a time where it matters more than ever. I could write an entire essay about it.

A series of three Tumblr posts by user crabussy. The first:
"people online are on a mission to hold every single random person "accountable" in the same way as a thief in the middle ages who is about to be beheaded in the town square for stealing a tomato"

The second:
"sometimes, if someone makes a cruddy mistake that hurt some feelings, you don't have to make a 10 page callout doc detailing every time they were sort of a dick to you. sometimes it's okay to just block someone and talk about the situation to a close friend instead of doing this whole "hear ye hear ye" thing"

The third:
"you know the whole "this meeting could have been an email" thing? this callout doc could have been a difficult but rewarding private conversation"
