My GBBO S2 Netflix watch continues, but sadly, I haven't liked this season as much as the last. I loved watching the majority of season 1's bakers, where with this run, the only one Im really enjoying is Kimberly.

So, sick in bed, and Ive just thrown on that new Netflix series, 13 Reasons Why, with no idea what it's about (aside from the summary blurb). One ep in, and Hannah Baker kinda feels like a junior Amy Dunne in the making.

2, 3, and 23 for salty ask game

I’m guessing this is for SPN, but if you wanted to hear my thoughts on a different fandom, just send another ask!

2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?*

Any member of Team Free Will with any other member of Team Free Will. Though Sastiel tickles me because I feel like the Sam and Cas dynamic is so underrated. 

3. Have you ever unfollowed someone over a fandom opinion?

I unfollow just about anyone I see being really hateful to another member of the fandom. 

You can hate the character, the plot, the actor, the ship – doesn’t bother me.

But when you act malicious toward another fan with a different opinion than your own about any of the above? Not uh. 

And I’m not talking disputes that break out over serious topics which tangentially relate to the cast and show; I’m talking the petty shit that floods the site every time a convention comes around or a controversial episode airs.

Quick ramble?

In the last year, I’ve somewhat fallen away from the SPN fandom because of hero worship of the actors. The SPN cast is phenomenal when it comes to their dedication to the fans and the good they’ve done in the world, but again – I’ve seen fans rip one another to shreds when someone says something bad about the actor they most admire. 

I can’t imagine that most of the cast would want to see fans treat one another like that. And honestly, if they did? Then that cast member wouldn’t be worth our respect anyway.

23. Unpopular character you love? 

I haven’t seen S12, so I have no idea where he currently stands in the fandom’s eyes, but I have always adored Crowley with all my heart. Sassy villains without remorse are always my fav, and while I still like him as a somewhat-softy, his zero-empathy game of the early seasons was my favorite. I mean, seriously. Why did this plot point die??? ;_; 

And while I don’t love Metatron, I feel like I need to give him a speck of approval here, because the world will never convince me that the fandom wouldn’t be writing slash fic between him and Dean if he had looked like Matt Cohen.

I know I have no one to blame but time when I see a spoiler for material that's like a decade old, but it still makes me so damn mad!

In what universe does this pass for a 16 yo?!

[coltsandquills]

Is Dean about to attempt to murder some random young woman against whom he has NO evidence just because he's distraught about Mary?!? Wtf!? I'm hoping I'm jumping the gun in this assumption, because last I knew, he was smarter than this. This isn't Dean. This is like... the shallow, overblown stereotype that Dean-haters envision brought to life.

Watching episode 4, and this story scares the crap out of me. Not so much the stigmata business, but the whole no-medical-intervention-in-the-name-of-god's-will scenario added to impotent child welfare services.
