Ive Seen Discussions Sometimes About How Fanfiction-based Fandom Culture Is Heavily Influenced And Dominated

I’ve seen discussions sometimes about how fanfiction-based fandom culture is heavily influenced and dominated by people who are not cis men.

One thing I haven’t seen discussed as much though is how much of fandom in general is shaped by neurodivergent people.

I mean, you have autistic and ADHD people with special interests or hyperfixations collecting information and writing detailed meta, connecting very strongly with characters and fandoms. I would not be surprised if the percentage of autistics in fandom communities was significantly higher than in the general public.

And that’s not even getting into other types of neurodivergencies and how they influence fandom culture.

I sometimes see people try to divorce fandom culture from the idea of being a “geek”, and I understand that this is sometimes because of the association with the sexist geek stereotype, but I also know that there is a connection between the two concepts, and it’s probably us neurodivergent people.

David Tennant Prevented JK Rowling Appearing On Doctor Who.

David Tennant prevented JK Rowling appearing on Doctor Who.

Also absolutely laughable to think JK Rowling appearing would ‘top’ Kylie Minogue’s appearance.

Fanfic authors you fuel my existence- thank you ❤

crazy how fanfic authors drop the most beautiful and gorgeous pieces of work ever, leaving you speechless and sobbing at three in the morning as you quietly contemplate the masterpiece you just read

and they don’t get paid for it they just do it because they’re having fun and they want to share their joy with you

like I would literally die for all of you fanfic authors out there reblog to swear your allegiance to fanfic authors

Interestingly, though, there are some Universities that are trying to mitigate this somewhat- I once had an assignment where we had to ask ChatGPT to answer an assignment question for us.

The real assignment was an essay on where ChatGPT was wrong, researching the gaps ourselves, and correcting what it told us.

Not a perfect solution, but I think it was useful in seeing for ourselves that AI is not perfect. Far from it, actually.

I do feel I need to clarify- personally, I hate AI. May it burn in hell then be freeze-dried on a clothesline to burn again.

ur future nurse is using chapgpt to glide thru school u better take care of urself
