That's fandom for you. Tumblr's fandom is particularly hostile but that's Tumblr being Tumblr. The reddit fandom is pretty chill in comparison.

1. Shipping child characters with adults, especially if they're abusive adults, is gross and icky. Sadly, a certain adult x child ship is very popular in one of my fandoms, so much so that you can't avoid seeing it. In fact, I dislike shippers in general, because the majority of them feel the need to take over absolutely everything and then cry oppression if people don't like the same stuff they do and are vocal about it. Actually... fandom culture in general just creeps me out most of the time. There are some aspects of it that can be really cool. I've seen a lot of amazing fan art, crafts, and even some decent fanfics, but there are just so many creepy fans.
2. I think social justice itself is very important, and there are lots of social justice issues that I care about greatly. But verbally abusing strangers on the internet doesn't make you a champion for social justice, nor does policing what people are allowed to take an interest in or wear. Fact is, if you don't know that person offline, you don't know what they're really like, and while issues like cultural appropriation aren't complete horse dung, they're horribly misrepresented by the tumblr crowd.
3. Coyotes aren't monsters that are out to kill every pet or human in existence. They're animals just like any other animal, and if you're leaving Fluffy and Fido outside unattended in an area where you know there are lots of coyotes, you have no one to blame for the consequences but yourself. I used to live in an area where there were loads of coyotes, and I never lost a single pet to them. I did the best I could to look after my pets and minimize the risks to their safety as much as possible.
Agreed! There's one particular community I've been a part of since my teens, and sadly, I seem to be one of very few that's actually grown up when it comes to language. There are seriously 30+ year olds ending every sentence with "lmao" and "rofl" and it's utterly obnoxious.

as long as you don't whine on the PvZ boards, true haha.
Also yeah I might be against every other but yes I was so born in the wrong generation. Like what is better today.. lgbt rights maybe and getting better and developed health care that most people can't get anyways because of where they live.

Same with me. I'm not bothered if people drink but the few friends I have always wanna go to alcohol revolving spaces and I always have to refuse since they make me uncomfortable and it bums me out.

Well I don't drink as much as I used to when I was younger so that's good I guess.. had a few bad accidents involving fat and gross food in a combination so yeah I try to be careful. But yeah, idek as long as people truly don't drink and not being edgy because it makes you look cool, whatever their choice.

i wish there were apps to find freindships.
like dateing apps.
but purely platonic and only looking for freindship.

* I hate rap. It's not music, it's just really fast paced talking with an uncatchy rhythm. That's literally all it is to me.
* I hate the fact that kids are in romantic relationships at such young ages now in days.
* I love reality TV Shows like Supernatural and The Walking Dead.
* Pets are awesome!
