The Stargate Fandom Is My Happy Place

Just an elder millennial fangirl from NJ completely obsessed with Stargate SG1. You’ll also find Sanctuary & Amanda Tapping and MacGyver & RDA stuff here. 🥰 (likes from monkeymeghan.tumblr.com) Icon by @asphyxiatedredherring

I love Stargate dearly, but every so often I need to reprocess the fact that the main series villains are:

Cunty little worms

Sentient grey Lego bricks

The Spanish Inquisition

Here’s the thing: authors know when they get a rec on an older story. There’s a telltale uptick of kudos (with a 10-15% comment rate if you’re lucky) in your digest email.

The thing is, there’s no way to know where these people are coming from. In the before, when fandom was more in the corners we all knew about, you could search LJ or a message board or whatever social bookmarking site we were using. You could join the community and participate.

You could get a little dopamine hit by seeing someone tell their friends why they loved your story.

Anymore, those recs are hidden in discords, or in tiktoks or instagram slideshows that you can’t search for. They’re inaccessible, not discoverable unless you’re already there. You may never know why 27 people left kudos on an old story of yours, what they liked and found in your writing. You just get the thumbs up and a kinda lonely feeling, cause these could be your people. You could like them, maybe. You could be friends.

But you’ll never find out why they stopped by, or what people are saying about you behind your back, and that’s sad.

So thank you to the people who still do public rec lists on this webbed site. You are my sunshine, and I’m appreciative of all of you.

Day 14 of AmazonMGMs X account being ratio’d by SG fans. The nerdy kids were always the most annoying. We only grow into the most annoying adults.
