As a children's librarian, people who harass fans of Harry Potter indiscriminately really worry me.

Here's why.

1. The majority of Harry Potter fans are children.

I've had people call me disgusting and scum and an embarrassment to my disabled community. I've been suicide baited and have received death threats. All of this can be heavy enough stuff for an adult to deal with.

And then I think of how most of my 700+ elementary-aged students are huge Harry Potter fans. Because, you know, Harry Potter is a children's series. And they also have access to the internet and social media like TikTok and YouTube.

Now imagine the stuff that's been said to me being said to a kid. Because Harry Potter's main audience are KIDS.

2. This black-and-white mentality isn't healthy.

Very few things in life are cut-and-dry good vs bad. And if you employ this kind of thinking in one area of your life, odds are you'll apply it to other areas too(more on that in a moment).

And people who go out of their way to harass people who like Harry Potter don't seem to particularly care about any context beyond "If you like Harry Potter in any way whatsoever you're scum".

It hasn't mattered when I've pointed out that I absolutely and unequivocally think Rowling's TERF views are awful and scummy and wrong. It hasn't mattered that I try my best to consume the content only in ways that won't monetarily support her, (which kids typically can't do, btw). It hasn't mattered that it's literally in my job description to keep up with children's media to procure content for my patrons as well as to be able to hold conversations with them.

3. Saying "You're not allowed to read this without being harassed" is no different from saying a book should be banned.

This is ironic, seeing as the people doing the harassing are also often up in arms about queerphobic and racist book bans (as they should be) while demanding book bans of their own.

Because in their all-or-nothing way of thinking, book bans are only bad when the "bad" people do it.

No. Book bans are always bad, no exceptions.

Book bans aren't bad because they're banning the "good" books, they're bad because banning access to different ideas is always bad. Because every book has a lesson to teach us (perhaps not the lesson intended by the author, but a lesson nonetheless).

I'm extremely excited to announce that I'm writing a column on fans and fandom for Atlas Obscura!!! And the first piece went up today!!! This one is on sentiment albums—a variation on the commonplace book—and the threads connecting them to modern fan practices.

FYI: This piece features the work of the brilliant Dr. Evan Hayles Gledhill, who first introduced me to these albums when they were our guest on ep 10 (!!) of @fansplaining approx. 8,000 years ago.

It also features my own pre-modern-internet sentiment album. 🥰

all those people condemning the Jedi Order for “abandoning” people to the Service Corps… y’all those are Jedi too… they’re just not knights. If you think not being trained for combat is what revokes your Jedi status, I think that’s your issue, not the Jedi’s

#bro they’re still… they’re still jedi…#not everyone can be a knight SOME PEOPLE HAVE TO BE DOCTORS #SOME PEOPLE HAVE TO *STUDY* THE FORCE #SOME PEOPLE HAVE TO STUDY CULTURES BUILT AROUND THE FORCE #SOME PEOPLE HAVE TO BE LIBRARIANS #ugh #listen I fell prey to this idea a year ago bc this fucking fandom is so brainless about the order #and then the moment I realised everyone was just upset bc pooor poor Blorbi-Wan…#yeah no.#jedi #jedi order #star wars

I've come to realize The Librarians is just SuperWhoLock: The Show, which is remarkable considering it was made years after superwholock peaked. the show would've ate on tumblr in 2011

#sorry to the librarians fandom that is very much active on here #you know what I mean #anyway bad show I highly recommend it 10/10 #the librarians

Edit (29/09/23): This is now closed but THANK YOU SO SO MUCH to everyone who took the time to interact, like, reblog, share, and respond!!! I really appreciate it 💕🤧

Did you make goncharov (1973) content? Well then i've got the perfect survey for you :)

Hey! I'm a library & information science masters student writing my disso on the information creation process of goncharov (1973) and need participants for a survey.

Here are some reasons to participate:

Because it's Goncharov (1973)

Because surveys are fun

Force my university to read approx 20k on our gay little film which I bet none of them have even seen!!

Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes (5 if you're quick)

Help expand a widely ignored academic domain (fan studies)

Please??

The only requirements are that you're 18 or older and have made some kind of Goncharov (1973) content - even if it's just one meta post about Mr JWHJ0715. The survey is completely anonymous and does not collect your IP address.

Link to the survey:

Please add as much detail as possible. Reblogs are loved and appreciated <3

I was scrolling through the nevermoor fanart tag and realized there's so much awesome art from years and years ago that is just buried in people's blogs at this point, and I was thinking that maybe I could queue a whole bunch of fanart on this blog to get it circulating again

I'm not sure if that's something that people do in fandoms regularly but it might be a nice little thing to see on your dash as we wait for silverborn!

let me know if you'd enjoy this/any other feedback on the idea

I'm rewatching The Librarians and I know everyone says S4 is the weakest season but like. it's perfect? It's literally art? Yes they went out on a limb a bit with some of the choices (not talking about the LITs arguing over who should be the Librarian, btw - of course they would! they had a whole episode about self-fulfilling prophecies! it makes so much sense in the context of the plot and their personal development), but! The last two episodes are perfect, just perfect, so genuine and heartfelt and earnest, everything I've loved about this show since the beginning, brought up to the next emotional level because hey - Eve carried the entire Library in her head and that's what saved it. And so did Flynn (Flynn!! Asylum Flynn broke me), and Jacob, and Cassandra, and Ezekiel! All of them are the heart of the Library, all of them are its keepers and its friends, they carry entire worlds in their heads and that's what saved the world! (I want to add something about Jenkins here too - I guess it's enough to say that none of them even wanted to stay on after what happened to him, of course he is its heart and keeper and friend too.)

That entire beginning of And the Trial of One, all dark and quiet and homey with Cassandra deciding to switch out the animal-cruelty stuff in the magic spell for tofu alternatives, hits so different knowing what's going to happen, and then there's that nightmare of a trial, and after that we step into that awful beige, mundane world without color or light or anything that means something, and Eve is trying to gather everyone and save them and slowly forgetting her home, everything that made her human instead of a shell, grasping at something that keeps slipping away like the memory of a dream… And Flynn!! Flynn who has been there for ages, and is still clinging to it! And the other three, who never forgot their dreams either!

And the writing, just the writing and the background music and the performances:

"You wonderful woman! You brought us all home." "You'll make me cry. I'm just a Guardian. Just doing my job." "No, you are the Guardian. You are my Guardian. Our Guardian." ;_;

"No, I gave everything I had to the Library, I gave it my love, I gave it my trust, and it took Jenkins! And I hate it!" (both Cass and I start sobbing here) "My best friend the sword, he taught me how to parry and thrust!" Flynn I love you so much <3

"We don't have to go home. We're already there."

I wouldn't say S4 is my favorite season, but in so many ways it's the most special one. Not because we say goodbye to the Library, but because the characters almost did - and then they brought it back, letting us know that it will always be there for us too.

#the librarians #eve baird #flynn carsen #jacob stone #cassandra cillian #ezekiel jones #jenkins #don't know if this makes sense #but I love this show so much #my happy show #that makes me cry on a regular basis #aaaand now I feel like writing more fanfic #but the fandom is so quiet and it's not as fun #I wish I could have seen it in its heyday #oh well fingers crossed re: the spinoff <3

Death and Relationships - Propaganda below!

Some Propaganda...

Death and Lucienne - There's something beautiful about Dream's first raven and second-in-command, someone who died once but never entered Death's realm, finding herself falling for Death. They could easily bond over their mutual exasperation towards Dream. These are arguably the only two people in Dream's life who take zero shit from him and who he actually listens to. Having them hook up would either be really bad for him, or really good, depending on how you look at it. It's a fantastic ship.

Death and Johanna Constantine - This one is just poetic. The mortal who is always flirting with Death due to her profession. It would be relatively easy for Death to cross paths with Johanna - how many brushes with Death has she had after all? It would probably be a complex and bittersweet relationship, but also totally hot.

Death and Lucifer Morningstar - an interesting ship. What do we think about the Devil and Death? Perhaps in this story we have a darker Death, a Death who guides sinners to Hell with sweet satisfaction, knowing she will greet her lover as they are dragged off by demons to eternal torment...

Death and Hob - probably a fandom favourite, Hob caught Death's attention by insulting her inadvertantly to her face. Could her amusement towards his hubris become something more? Could Hob ever accept Death? Even in a way he doesn't expect?

The Corinthian - throwing this in as a crack ship tbh. He's a hot killer who would probably find it amusing to court the sister of his master. Dream would be furious. I doubt Death would go for him, but maybe even she enjoys the odd casual fling?

Death and Wanda - Not gonna lie I want it to be canon. They'd be THE power couple and I have photographic propaganda to support this:

THEY ARE HOLDING HANDS!!! (Don't tell me this is just how Death takes people I KNOW that and I don't care. They are perfect okay!!!)

7. Death and Hazel - I know Hazel is with Foxglove in the comics, but this could easily be an OT3! Plus I also have propaganda to support this:

Let Death be in a polyamorous lesbian throuple for a while. As a treat. She deserves it. :)

8. Death and Dream - Whats the harm in a bit of immortal incest? lol. It was all the rage in Greek mythology... ahem... um... don't come at me okay I have Kirby's backing for this!!!

youtube

9. Death and Nuala - Listen I just adore that fairy and want her to be loved. Plus Nuala fell hopelessly in love with Dream - maybe she has a thing for goths? lmao! It's a very cute ship imo. Death would adore Nuala because who doesn't?

10. Death and Desire - Listen, this is also Kirby's fault (and Mason's) so I'm not saying anything more about it! :P

I wanna hear your best ideas so please let me know your thoughts! :)

I decided that after all the excellent whump from whumptober it's time for some comfort, because I want to see my favorite whumpees get all the love and comfort they deserve! So I came up with my own 30 prompts for the comfort side of the hurt/comfort trope. One for each day of November.
