#this fandom is awesome

I kinda consider you the king of animorphs, mostly because of you and blogs like you that I was able to binge read all the books. And in a shocking twist of events a lady even gifted me several Animorphs books. And recently, as I work in a library, I've had a child and their parent asking me to find animorphs books.

I can always find ways to read animorphs, but parting with the books so that they may enjoy them and pass on the joy of this series will be so much fun.

Thank you for making animorphs fun.

Thank you so much! I love that Tumblr is this space where you can find all the people who enjoy the same things you do, even obscure sci fi series that went out of print over 20 years ago.

I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing an animal absolutely sucks, regardless of how many times you experience it. I hope you can find some peace of mind and grief in whichever way serves you most. Sending you lots of hugs and I hope you know you’re not alone in this 🫂💜

Aww that’s so very nice of you🫶🏻. He was like a family member and will be missed for sure. He had the best life ever and wherever he is now he can eat all the cake and cookies. 😏

So here are the stats for the Spy x Family Weekend Post as of December 9, 2023.

I did suspect that a large number of people only watch the anime, but seeing a number of people reblogging this made me so happy! I'm honestly so glad to see quite a bunch of SpyxFamily fans who do both! I love doing these kind of mini research/polls because it does tell me what kind of audience I may have on Tumblr in this fandom. I say may because not all of my followers engaged on this post, and most who did are people who are just in the fandom. Nonetheless, it gives me somewhat of idea of post engagement.

I read that someone mentioned that I could have made this into a poll, which could have made this survey more accurate. To be honest, I forgot there was a poll option >///< However, I'm curious that if I had made it into a poll, then would it have had the same engagement activity as above? Also, I realized that the comment section was turned off, so I had no stats on manga-readers only. I apologize for that OTL

Thank you all for interacting with with post! It was so interesting to see the result of this stats, and as a researcher, this just makes me happy to friends in the SxF engage with this post for amusing my curiosity.

SxF family weekend is finally here, and episode 35 is here! Wishing you all a happy SpyxFamily weekend and I'll discuss stuff with ya'll very soon! :D

Gentle reminder that very little fandom labor is automated, because I think people forget that a lot.

That blog with a tagging system you love? A person curates those tags by hand.

That rec blog with a great organization scheme and pretty graphics? Someone designed and implemented that organization scheme and made those graphics.

That network that posts a cool variety of stuff? People track down all that variety and queue it by hand, and other people made all the individual pieces.

That post with umpteen links to helpful resources, and information about them? Someone gathered those links, researched the sources, wrote up the information about them.

That graphic about fandom statistics? Someone compiled those statistics, analyzed them, organized them, figured out a useful way to convey the information to others, and made the post.

That event that you think looks neat? Someone wrote the rules, created the blogs and Discords, designed the graphics, did their best to promo the event so it'd succeed.

None of this was done automatically. None of it just appears whole out of the internet ether.

I think everyone realizes that fic writing and fanart creation are work, and at least some folks have got it through their heads that gif creation and graphics and moodboards take effort, and meta is usually respected for the effort that goes into it, at least as far as I've seen, but I feel like a lot of people don't really get how much labor goes into curation, too.

If people are creating resources, curating content, organizing the creations of others, gathering information, and doing other fandom activities that aren't necessarily the direct action of creation, they're doing a lot of fandom labor, and it's often largely unrecognized.

Celebrate fan work!

To folks doing this kind of labor: I see you, and I thank you. You are the backbones of our fandoms and I love you.
