My favorite character in Supernatural is SamandDean.

kids these days don't understand the atmosphere of eric kripke seasons, he was an absolute master of his craft/vision and anyone who actively convinces anyone to skip 1-3 is not in one's right mind. eric completely understood the backwoods old school americana, the influence of 70s rock and og blues incorporated into the essence of the show. the original soundtrack of supernatural wasn't just about sounding good but woven into the narrative of the story (blue oyster cult/ACDC/led zepp/styx/robert johnson/the chamber brothers) music that held the entire spirit of time & culture of that time. (I can't tell you how much watching supernatural at 12 shaped my music taste today) the smoky roadhouses/bars, mullets, scrapyards and classic americana cars, oh he just got it.

kripke fabricated the toxic hyper-co-dependent brothers we know and love, he managed to write the most obnoxious, gung ho, red blooded masculine guy also be the obedient, subdued, desperate, needy brother/son/man who's worth is only attached in those he can gratify. the tender and gentle, sorrowful, conflicted and misfit little (big) brother who endeavoured every path to avoid his fate yet succumbed to it anyways. two brothers so layered in their attachment with one another that if you witnessed it before you you'd be down right scared

I hold onto this series so much because of how 1-5 made me feel, the nostalgia he captured.

I don't think this show is good for your mental health

2 questions for you:

1. What is all the drama going on Twitter about entitled fans? Can you explain, I am so lost! What have the “fans” done to other fans? I saw some other stuff about inappropriate photo op requests? What is going on?

2. What is destiel con?

Also just wanted to say I’m happy you had a fun weekend at the con! Thanks for updating on Twitter. It was much appreciated

So there's a group of 4 Jai, Val, Rose, and Robin, which I'll call the Mean Girls because they act like the characters from the movie. They were part of this group called SHAC, which stands for Spotted Hound Art Club. It's Val’s discord server/club that you gain access to through her patreon.

There's a bunch of tweets on the issue here: link, link, link, link, link, link, link, link, link, link.

But basically, the Mean Girls had group chats and discords where they would abuse and bully various people in the fandom. They would go after people who weren't in their clique, but if you got on the bad side of the clique, then you would be bullied relentlessly. Lots of people are sharing stories of being harassed, doxxed, accused of various isms, etc.

One of the rules for being part of their club was that you had to hate Jared or pretend to hate Jared. They drove a lot of the hate towards Jared. They asked people to fake death threats from Jared fans so that they could frame Jared fans for bad behavior.

The Mean Girls were responsible for Misha having to come out as straight. They've caused a lot of toxicity in this fandom.

Apparently they have such a high opinion of themselves, but they make people pay to have one-on-one conversations???

It sounds like they were basically the Destiel Shadow Council 2.0. Kind of crazy that there's been two versions of that group in the fandom in less than 5 years, but I guess there's a really toxic undercurrent in the Destiel fandom.

Apparently they would love bomb and go after young, impressionable fans.

People who used to suck up to Jaistiel are now saying that there were inappropriate photo op requests.

Destiel Con aka A More Profound Con was a free, online convention that was started by fans, for fans, and was destroyed when Val & the Mean Girls threw a shit fit and claimed ableism, which Val apparently loves to do in order to play the victim and get special treatment. It turned into a community event full of love into fighting and mud slinging.

BTW, I saw Jaistiel at the con and they looked very sad and lonely. They were almost always by themselves and on their phone off to the side. Even during karaoke. They are sad, lonely people who have to bully others to have any sense of power.
