Just posts randomly coming across my dash. I don't remember who was reblogging them. It was probably more than one person. And it sounded interesting. And I had a long-ish train ride from Kansas City to Chicago, followed by a flight from Detroit to China, so. I had time. I started right after WTNV's first anniversary. :)
Too many posts and I possibly would have dismissed it, at least for a while. That's what happened with the first Avengers movie. Too much hype and I blacklisted it. I did see it before the year was out, but. I resisted! I tend to be contrarian. Though when it came to BBC Sherlock, the fandom on tumblr drove me away (not personally, just generally)... and I've not been back. To be fair, I had kinda drifted away after s2, but wasn't gone gone. Now I am.

Done!
Thanks. I would if I could. There are the health issues, but the big problem is money. I have difficulties just getting by on what Social Security gives me--and there are several other ways the system is set up to keep disabled people in poverty--so a round-trip airplane ticket from New York to California and back, the convention fee, a hotel room for a few nights, and dining out for meals for those days are quite beyond me. (The only reason I got to attend Comic Con in NYC a few times was that I was volunteering to do a few hours working a booth and could just use the subway to get there, and those folks haven't asked for my services in the last several years so....) It sucks.
