YW Positivity

nice things about nice people in a nice fandom

[ywpositivity]

[text: It's been maybe an hour or two since I thought to come find this fandom (I'm not always super social) and I love you all already! Dai stihó, cousins -- well met on the journey! —greetings-and-defiance]

[text: As sapphirefiber said, "Other fandoms have anon hate, we have anon love."]

[ywpositivity]

[text: peridexis is the most accepting and understanding person I have ever met. They are also the most punk rock person ever.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: Verdigrisvagabond is one of the sweetest, most compassionate people you will ever meet. She is always willing to help, be it fashion advice or talking down from a panic attack, and I am so glad to have her in my life.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: This fandom has become like a second family to me. I love all of y'all and y'all are awesome. I cannot wait for CrossingsCon so I can hug each and every one of you (that want it, I mean)]

[ywpositivity]

[text: Im-Significant is one of the sweetest people I know. Her reactions to things make me smile no matter how crappy I'm feeling. She is smart, funny, silly and so very sweet, and always brightens my day.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: Geekhyena is one of the best people I have ever met. She is kind, intelligent, sweet, caring, loyal, and fantastic in every way. Her pumpkin bread is fantastic, as is everything about her. She has helped me through some really tough times, and is so so supportive.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: This fandom has been very welcoming to me. I love how it's been "proven" that everyone is the fandom is a cutie. It was nice to get an introductory ask from someone calling me a cutie just like that. I'm flattered! XD]

[ywpositivity]

[text: The Christmas in July fic exchange has had nothing but fabulous entries. I can’t believe how talented of a writer everyone is!]

[ywpositivity]

[text: The Space Ship and Paradox Space Ship are so darned cute I can't even stand it.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: Masha is one of the nicest, most compassionate people ever. She's super willing to help you out and she is such a wonderful person. I just want to hug her all the time.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: Masha is one of the nicest, sweetest, most caring people I know, and she has fantastic fashion sense to boot. She is also fantastic at appreciating all the cute animals.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: If you have not tried Geekhyena's pumpkin bread, you have not lived. Cousin, you could go into business and make a fortune.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: This one goes out to all of the cousins. I’ve been having a rough life as of late, and it’s kind of been a cataclysm of how could this possibly get worse, and then my Mum… (I think you all know who I am, which is fine) I know I wouldn’t have made it through without all of you. Every message, little encouragement, prayer and thought is so, so helpful and meaningful to me. Love and support is offered profusely and by everyone. I don’t think I know any kinder or more giving people.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: Sarah (jenesaispourquoi) is such a positive force in this fandom. I always see her responding to cousins' personal posts with love and support, and seeing her personal tags for people always gives me warm fuzzies.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: One of the many reasons the YW fandom is awesome is how much they value consent. Even internet hugs are given on an "only if you want it" basis. I've never seen a fandom with this much respect before.]

[ywpositivity]

[text: I don’t actively participate a lot in the fandom, but I enjoy seeing all the stuff people make! And when I do drop in to a chat or whatever, people are kind and welcoming to me despite my lurky ways. Thank you everyone! ]
