Well shit, Henry Jenkins, out here in 1997 dropping truth bombs

[addressmysol]

Oh hey I need this for a research paper I'm writing, thank you!

[angstbotfic]

i mean he had been out here since 1988 dropping such bombs:

"'fandom' is a vehicle of marginalized subcultural groups (women, the young, gays, etc.) to pry open space for their cultural concerns within dominant representations; it is a way of appropriating media texts and rereading them in a way that serves different interests, a way of transforming mass culture into a popular culture"

Jenkins, Henry. “Star Trek Rerun, Reread, Rewritten: Fan Writing as Textual Poaching.” Critical Studies in Mass Communication 5, no. 2 (1988): 85–107. https://doi.org/10.1080/15295038809366691.  

there are even some earlier works in fan studies but that’s what i have ready to hand.

I’m not saying it’s right, but I understand (x)

[daggers-drawn]

I’m saying “it’s right”

[night-dragon937]

All of us are saying “it’s right.”

[fighting-the-urge-at-home-depot]

[candiikismet]

It’s right.

[molothoo]

Right

[dukes-cassettetape]

[slimegirl-pseudopod]

This man committed no wrong and anyone who says otherwise is wrong and devoid of morals

[naamahdarling]

That overpowering neurodivergent urge to emit a horrible screech now and then.

I’m sorry but I’ll never be able to see DJ khalid for anything other than refusing to eat pussy. that will always be his legacy to me

this was printed on ancient paper that bordered parchment in a house I did repairs in and it scared me

[imaredshirt]

That feeling tho when you find that fic writer that just absolutely fucking

understands the characters to their core

writes so well they–just so–they just—their writing is—-THEY WRITE GOOD

shatters your bad mood with a new update

writes a fic that you can read over again and still clutch at your heart like HOLY SHIT I FUCKING LOVE–I LOVE THIS FIC

writes a scene that has you all giddy in public and that one random stranger asks you like “ooo you are smiling :) :) is that a boy :) you are talking to :)” and you’re like “no I’m reading a Everybody Lives/Nobody Dies AU, please leave”

understands and portrays the characters better than the people who make MOVIES with those characters

amazing. just amazing. fic writers are awesome

[honeyybadgerhatesmen]

Please watch this you guys, this made me laugh so hard.
