I miss the fandom. I pulled out of a convention in January in Seattle because I was worried about the election results and the potential for anti trans rhetoric to rise. I’ve experienced it before in Seattle. When I explained this to a cis het fur who was going to the con she got all angry and said “can we keep politics out of this?!” I left the DnD group we were in, and pulled out of the con because all I want is to feel safe. I suspect I’m the asshole for not going, but damn I miss the fandom.
