Agent of Chaos

As someone who has frequent surreal disturbing scary dreams I don't consider a dream a nightmare unless I wake up shivering/hyperventilating/sweating still feeling afraid or otherwise awful

For instance last night I had a dream my home was under seige by shapeshifters and fish people and giant monstrous bats and something else so impossible large it cast a massive shadow on my home as it flew over. And also it was dark and none of the light switches would turn on. But I woke up refreshed and well rested so I don't consider it a nightmare

No hate to shippers, I know how fandom is, but I just wish the majority of the tags for The Sandman weren’t 99% Dreamling content.

I don’t mind shipping! Dreamling is fine. I just want so badly to engage with all the other aspects of my special interest that don’t involve shipping. Where is the love for all the other wonderful characters? Rose Walker, Lucifer, and Mazikeen, in particular for me personally, but so many others too.

Maybe it’s because I’m aroace or maybe I’m just a big baby, but shipping culture has always felt a little isolating for me? Usually I’m fine with that, but in this case, it’s a story that has so much to it and it does frustrate me a little that that’s where the majority of the focus is directed.

Again, I have nothing against Dreamling! Shipping is fun for many people and you have a right to enjoy it. I just wish the focus was broader, I guess.
