We really need to get a term for a Fandom that has financially cut ties from its creator. Like people still may talk about the story in fandom spaces but there are CLEAR guidelines and an understanding to not engage or give any money to the creator.

seeing/ hearing about the brutal bucktommy v buddie wars in the 911 fandom makes me wonder how brutal the wars woulda been if cas had come out as gay sooner, but NOT destiel canon, and had a not-dean romantic partner for a while...

Kamala Harris is on track to be the Beyoncé AND Taylor Swift of politics

Okay here is what I think happened...

Reddit blackout/ migration >>> around the same time Good Omens leak + Trump is arrested = destiel news meme and supernatural starts trending...

Many reddit refugees are still unaccustomed to the nuances of SPN's function on this hellsite and therefore believe it is simply trending because it is a showTM and this is a site.

Ergo...

People just start blogging and talking about the show.

TL;DR

Reddit Migration >>> Supernatural Renaissance

Keep on banning words Tumblr… ya’ll just encouraging this hellsite to continue to develop its own language, (we already got hieroglyphic memes, emoticons, hellsite specific phrases, inside jokes, etc.) further solidifying its status as a sub-culture. For as you anthropologists, sociologists, linguists, etc. know, language is at the core of culture.

Go forth Tumblr users. Make this site a hell! (affectionate)

also just adds to the beauty...

something so sacred we refuse to let it be bastardized by being brought to the screen and fed into to the capitalist corporate machine

Corporations really out here saying "we hide our flaws parasitic pricing, until after the wedding we out-compete all the small businesses and they are stuck with us" 😘
