#ra speaks #personal #*shaking my brain around* WE’RE OKAY WE’RE FINE WE ARE NEW HERE PEOPLE ARE EXCITED TO HAVE FRESH BLOOD THEY’RE NOT GONNA BE MAD AT YOU #FOR NOT KNOWING EVERYTHING ITS OKAY CALM DOWN #I’ve said it before but like I’ve always been on the fringe of fandom. like I am the autistist maintaining the wiki and continuously posting #about a 40 yo scifi film but the social aspects of fandom always sort of. alluded me. #honestly even fanfic is very hit or miss for me in terms of appeal compared to the original source #so I just. don’t know how to interact w people even if we have the same interests #because the social rituals of fandom are just as complex as traditional social rituals #but I have far less experience with them because it’s simply not something I have regular necessary contact with #that being said I love wikis I love correcting wikis jfc the soma wiki sucks it needs a thorough refresh so bad I wish I had the time…. #also the dtb wiki but that is so so bad it needs to be scrapped and worked from scratch I’m sorry there’s just so much fanon/speculation
