I'm starting a support group for longfic writers (both wordcount and long gaps between posting) who have seen names disappear from their comments and are left forever wondering where those readers have gone and why engagement is disappearing

Half of people say that kids these days are too sensitive and half of them say they’re too apathetic which in itself seems like a contradiction but I feel like it’s just half of young people have had to shut down their emotions because it is so easy to learn about tragedy these days. I’ve been awake for a half hour and already I’ve learned about a teenager who was killed at his homecoming game last night, a young girl who died from cancer recently, and had a reminder of the school shooting where a bunch of kids died. It’s impossible to not be beat down by all of this and there are really only two results: becoming over sensitive to it all as everything gets piled on, or to turn it off
