...so the other day I mentioned being excited then dismayed about a small pocket of a dying fandom I'd come across because the self-proclaimed leader of the pack and I had a weird moment where my opinion was steamrolled over. I came away thinking maybe I was overthinking things.

This week it's like this person has dialed the crazy up to an 8. There are so many red flags that I'm just...exhausted.

I don't want to burn any bridges because it's so hard to find other people to chill with in this small fandom, but I'm also starting to wonder if the reason the fandom is so small is because of this person.

It's admittedly taking a toll on my writing - like in my head there's that awful, small voice asking, "Do you really want to be associated with this person by writing in this fandom?" And that sucks.
