This is the most accurate Tumblr post I have ever read in my life.

I sell everything on my Etsy store more or less at cost and offer free shipping. For American orders, the shipping is included in the base price, but this means that I actually lose money on international orders.

It's worth it just to see the UK addresses, though. It is so, so very worth it, and I regret nothing.

The Shambling Undead Discourse Drama

It's true, though. Especially on Twitter.

You'd think that not using hashtags on Twitter would protect you from what are essentially anonymous asks, but I've encountered a lot of stranger danger.

Most of the time I have no idea what's going on. I'll screencap whatever bizarre comment I got, set it aside, and then try to figure out what's going on later a day or two later. Sometimes I still can't figure out what the person thinks they're responding to, but usually some YouTuber has said something stupid.

The other week I posted a tweet about how much I like Knives Out, which is not a controversial opinion, and some rando responded with an assertion that I'm a toxic abuse apologist. I was like, ?????, but then I remembered that Rian Johnson is also writing Star Wars, which is tied to the Reylo ship, which is "abusive."

Like the OP says, this sort of thing is essentially unavoidable at this point. For every person or keyword you block or blacklist, another rises in its place. It's just, idk, something in the water.

I should mention that I like the OP a lot, and I spend a few minutes scrolling through their blog probably once every two weeks or so. They're a normal, sane, healthy person whose response to fandom discourse is "don't be an asshole," which I appreciate.
