Anyone in fandom who just got a cowboy fetish is pretty particular.
But I realise I'm tired when I have to put off reacting to Misha's photos until another time.
Shit. Reaction queue got longer: [link]
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Did I miss something new:
ALL OF US QUEER FANS WHO SPN CRAPS ON. Why are Adam Glass’s hurt feelings more valid than our hurt feelings about being portrayed as jokes, predators, and token side characters like Charlie, Barnes, and Damien in a show whose creators and fans like to tout as being so queer positive?
Sans shame:
I finally left a comment to the effect of:
liked the D/C relationship, not a fan of AU Dean hating John so much more than canon, skimmed that bit, Jess is not petite.
Not that author's fault she caught me on night 3 of epic insomnia, but it's comment 364. I'm sure she'll get over it.

I think he was responding to some Destielers' pressure on Twitter the other day -- I saw a series of tweets from him about how the writers love all their characters and try to tell the best story they can, and not ever purposely hurting the fans, etc. So someone was being an entitled, demanding asshole, I guess.
Was there a specific and recent portrayal of queer as joke or predator, or did he say "You will never get your faggotry in my main plot, only in episodic heroes like Demian and Barnes or well-loved (by fans, writers, cast, and crew) recurring characters like Charlie!" while pissing on a rainbow?
Man, there isn't a megaphone big enough to yell "Safest to assume no writer is waiting for you to tell them what story to write!" If he asked "Hey, who do you want Dean or Castiel to hook u with?" it would be on topic (and he'd be signing his own death warrant), but otherwise...this is literally what your own fanfic is for. It's not like it's not well-published fandom etiquette to not send fanauthors and fanartist unsolicited prompts or requests. Why should a pro be different?
Spurred by ita's comments, I have caught up on Misha's Twitter, and omg, the blackberries picture is to die for.
And then later in his pic feed is him and Nathan Fillion, and I just about exploded. Please, yes, them two, on screen together, or at least creating babies in a lab somewhere? (And maybe taking Nathan running because he seems to love his couch hobits a bit too much...).
I have two D/C fic recommendations, both fairly different.
Oooo, is Cas a Jolinar-esque Tok'ra in the first one? It hadn't occurred to me before, but the angel/vessel situation would map really well to symbiont/host.
Go look--finding out the mappings is part of the fun.
I mean, if you don't want to read it, Castiel is Teal'c, and it's basically his transition story, but if you are going to read it, why not be unspoilt?
Okay, I'm writing this idea down because it makes me laugh and I can't decide if I should do it--but I want to! So don't steal it. I want to do a Take On Me style D/C picture.
All because of a stupid VW ad.
