shudder I’m autistic and fandoms used to be my happy place… I used to go to cons, make so many friends online, just shoot the shit, read whatever, wrote whatever… I miss those days. I had to leave fandom spaces and tumblr entirely as of 2 or 3 years ago because of how nauseatingly toxic most fandoms are these days. I miss the days of dead dove and Don’t Like Don’t Read being respected.
