In the course of spiralling down an internet rabbit hole today, I found a truly excellent essay about the trials and tribulations of fandom: How To BNF Without Tears, by Walter A. Willis
If you are familiar with the term BNF (Big-Name Fan), you may have heard it in the context of early-aughts fandoms, or some configuration of superwholock. But this article is from 1954!
Please enjoy these excerpts:
Very well, let's consider a day in the life of this wretched Neofan. Brighteyed, the little fellow wakes early, listening for the tread of the postman. His ears are so sensitive to this faint sound that he will leap out of bed, every nerve quivering, when the man is a hundred yards away ….. whereas before he became a fan a whole battery of alarm clocks barely fluttered an eyelid.
It's me, I'm the wretched little fellow refreshing my AO3 inbox, nerves a-quivering
Consider now a day in the life of the BNF. He too is driven from pillow to post, but since he was up to two o'clock in the morning finishing an article he had promised for ten days ago, the postman has to knock twice to waken him. He staggers down the stairs, observing with a sinking feeling that the porch is covered with a layer of various sized envelopes[....]Some of the letters are from his friends, and he puts those in his pocket to be enjoyed later. Some are from self-appointed enemies, and he puts those aside until he feels stronger. The rest are from Neofen. Some of them want subscriptions to his fanzine. Some want information. Some want material for their fanzine. Nearly all of them are rude.
1954 equivalent of "RIP your inbox"
Now, on the way the BNF handles this mail depends whether he shall stay in fandom or retire suffering from chronic disenchantment like so many others[...]So I am going to suggest some rules which you might consider following when you become a BNF. (All that is necessary to become a BNF is to maintain a reasonably energetic standard of fanactivity for approximately two years.)
And then our friend Walter goes on to advise BNFs to "comment on as many first issues [of fanzines] as you can, and always find something to praise," "Always be polite and kind to Neofans," and to take the piss out of yourself: "Humourous attacks on you should be encouraged -- they add to the interest of fandom, rank as egoboo, and might give you something to write about." (Walter also warns on the dangers of attending conventions, and advises that you wear a false beard to maintain anonymity.)
Of course, I had to know: what fandom were these guys in?
So I did a little digging. Walter mentions a "Ken Potter" in his letter. Turns out Ken Potter ran multiple science fiction fanzines through the 1950's and 60's, including Brennschluss, Triumph and Scientifiction.

A scan of Brenschluss, containing such gems as "tho I did once kiss a girl" and "Isn't Fandom romantic!"
Additional glossary for some terms used in Walter's essay:
"Egoboo": A colloquial expression for the pleasure received from public recognition of voluntary work. Originated in science fiction fandom as early as 1947
"Hectoed" fanzine: A method of copying text and illustrations that fell out of fashion after the 1940's. It involves involves making a bed of gelatin, transferring a special carbon ink to the gelatin and then laying on and picking up pieces of paper.
"Faned": Slang for "fan editor," aka the editor of a fandom publication, usually a zine.

My wonderful childhood, every day on TV Merlin. Buying a DVD of Merlin. Over time, certain parts of the series stopped working because I watched them too many times (mostly the moments with Arthur and Gwen's kisses).
Now: I'm in love with you," he whispers hoping only Merlin will hear. "You were right. I'm a giant clotpole who needs a murderous ghost to admit it. Her magic did what it was supposed to do."
Merlin goes very still next to him.
"You're serious."
Arthur nods.
"Fuck." Merlin's kissing him possessively, passionately...

in three days, it'll be the 100-day mark since i saw you live for the very first night, in my own country. something i had dreamed of for countless and sometimes sleepless nights. you are everything i dreamed of and even more. you say it to so many people, but i say it to you: i don't know how you do it. i'm in awe of you and your ability to tell the most beautiful but also heartbreaking stories not only through your lyrics but also through your performances. going to the eras tour changed the trajectory of my life forever. it was the best experience i've ever had, from meeting a long-time online friend and getting to see the first show together, to trading many friendship bracelets, to lifting our fanaction during the archer, to listening to fearless, my tattoo, for the first time & then my all time favourite song from you: all too well, to listening to my second tattoo, my birth month, the song that means the world to me: august, to just watching and listening to you be mesmerized by the crowd. we waited for you for so long and you made our dreams come true. i can't help but get emotional thinking about all the memories i made during the 2 shows i was able to attend and the only thing i can ask you is please come back as soon as you can, you will always find in us, your argentinian fans, the most passionate and loyal people you'll ever get to meet. we love you, taylor. i love you. argentina will be yours forever and we will wait for you 💘 @taylorswift

I was in that degrassi fanactics group on Facebook lemme yall the amount of fucking lies that were told i literally had to unfollow that group! My final straw was someone declaring that they hated Clare ok cool what is new but that SHE cheated on eli first! Like are yall even watching the fucking show or??? Im sorry that pissed me off that group has so many people who just dk wtf they are talking about? These people obviously weren’t consistent degrassi watchers. But to say Clare cheated on Eli first is mind blowing y’all are something else bitch 🤣💩
And I’ll never trust and degrassi “fan” who spells Clare’s name like Claire or Clair!

Did you want names that were close to OF like Just4Fans or something or something further away? Fanactics (Fan-act-tics) or Fanatics?
Anyway hope you find something and have fun! I love the idea
I'm open to whatever, but Just4Fans is pretty good! Thank you for the suggestion!

Age of Pisces vs. Age of Aquarius: A Journey Into Collective Transcendence
by Nandini marson
But the fight for the dissolution of the ego and higher ideals are not the only thing Pisces represents. In the search for transcendence hides the search for escape. Pisces in its darker form can lead to loss of the sense of reality, self destruction, drug abuse, alcoholism or any other addiction focused on escapism. Religious fanactism and intolerance gained force, and the idea of guilt and suffering settled as synonyms for spirituality.
The Age of Aquarius symbolizes the time of discovery, innovation and progress. It represents the thirst for change and the longing for a better future. Ruler of the collective, Aquarius speaks of humanitarian ideals, cooperation and brotherhood. It also rules the realms of the personal and collective mind, the searching and shearing of information and the fight for personal and intellectual freedom
For the last centuries, the aquarian energy has been gaining force, which can be seen in many moments of human history, like the French Revolution in 1789, bringing the progressive ideals of freedom, brotherhood and equality into form. The Storming of the Bastille in 1789 symbolises the breaking of prisions (represented by Pisces) and the movement against old authoritarian order. And it was also in the 16th century that first appeard the concept of atheism and the resistance against the tradicional religious structure gained strength.

Hey Everybody!
So the Latin American side of the fandom made this little something for the boys using the Wildflower song and it'd mean the world to us if you could retweet this tagging the boys, Andy and Crystal so they can see it.
(I'm in the video I'm wearing the Freddie Mercury t-shirt)
Also if you could reblog this to spread the word please please it'd be awesome.
Stay safe and stream CALM.

🎤 FANS GET INTERVIEWED thanks to @avatarmetalbr aka @malu.xmoura 🤘🏻 "In February 8th of this year, I was on my Tik Tok, just normally scrolling on my 'for you' feed, and then one video came in, a metal band dancing to Boom Boom Boom from Vengaboys, my first impression was “what the fxxk?” 😆 ..but after seeing the same video a lot of times, I fell in love with that band! 😍 I found out that the band name is @avatarmetal, the members names, @kungen_avatar @henrik_avatar @johannes_avatar and @john_avatar, the songs, the music videos and a lot more about them, I simply fell in love with all of this. 🥲 The days went by, and I saw that video of Johannes telling they were comming to Brasil, in that moment I started screaming and shouting all over my house of happiness (but I couldn’t go to the show 💔), and I did a video introducing the band to my followers. I thought it wouldn’t work out and that it wasn’t even going to have 10 likes, until many, MANY notifications began to arrive, @timavatar liked and reposted, the other members of the band and their official account reposted!!! 🤯 When I saw it I decided to create this Brazilian fandom (@avatarmetalbr) and post everything about Avatar! 🇧🇷🇸🇪 And yeah... that’s how I discovered my favorite band of all times!" #fanaction #fandom #avatarbrasil #avatarmetalband #avatarband #avatarmetal #timöhrström #jonasjarlsby #henriksandelin #johanneseckerström #johnalfredsson #öhrstruck #timavataritaly (at Curitiba, Brazil) https://www.instagram.com/p/Chxq3HCr-_V/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
