“To get what you love, you must first be patient with what you hate.”
7 Tips for Improving your Social Life
1. Ignore your feelings when they say to put walls … and actively decide to build a bridge instead.
2. Don’t compare yourself to others, or attack yourself. Appreciate your talents and the things that make you “you.”
3. Pay attention to your thoughts when you feel anxious or afraid. Imagine being successful, and relaxed, and popular.
4. Focus on what’s best in others; validate their gifts and strengths.
5. Avoid touchy topics; don’t be boring or offensive; and notice when it’s time to let another take the stage.
6. Try to focus more on others and the things that interest them. Avoid the trap of talking about me, me, me!
7. Be genuine and real – as that puts others at their ease … and others are more likely to be natural as well.
At this point I am just impressed. and those freaking #’s took me wayyyy to long.
New day, new name. The Tumblr formerly known as thefandometrics will now only respond to @fandom. We’re more than just data. Spread the word.
Listen up. It’s time. You can feel it in your bones, can’t you? Or maybe it’s that little piece of your brain dedicated to your OTP, your secondary ships, and your favorite fandoms. Its whisper has turned into a blissed-out scream…
SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON IS STARTING IN THREE DAYS.
Can’t make it? Don’t worry—Tumblr will be there covering the most important stuff in comics, movies, TV, games, and all things entertainment. Consider us your eyes and ears. We’ll be on the floor, in Artist Alley, at outdoor activations, and everywhere in between. Take it all in via @fandom, the #SDCC tag, our official Instagram, and a few Answer Times and exclusive GIFs over on @stardom.
In previous years, we brought the best cosplay from the con floor straight to your dashboard (hi, Sexy Gandalf). This year we want to add a little audience participation to the mix. Let’s see you—yes, you—in your finest cosplay gear. Whether you’re at Comic-Con yourself or just dressed up at home, submit your picture to @fandom. We’re going to showcase the best of the best right here on this ol’ Tumblr.
