So there's a debate on the SCML about what constitutes Subreality canon. Everyone's getting het up about it.
And I couldn't give a rat's.
I know this is probably going to offend a few of my friends (who I know read this LJ), but honestly? I can't find the energy to care. The only reason I'm even involved in it is because I was asked for my opinion as THOSD moderator. Which should be given no more weight than anyone else's opinion, because the whole Keeper thing doesn't make THOSD mine, it just means I compile the RRs and settle the occasional board-related argument and keep the place troll-free. Admin-type stuff.
Of course, I'm partly responsible for the whole thing, since I read the fic in question and it didn't even occur to me that people would have a problem with it. More of the apathy factor I guess. And it's because of this apathy thing that I'm starting to wonder if I'm a fit moderator, because at the moment I seriously can think of a whole bunch of stuff I'd rather be (and should be) dealing with, rather than this. *shrugs* Hell, if someone I could rely on wanted the job tomorrow, I'd hand it over, Key and all. Because personally I think everyone's taking all this way too seriously.
It's a game people. So what if there was an early version of THOSD run by a Muse? It's not going to affect world poverty or the fact George Bush has made himself Global Sheriff, or that it's illegal to gather in groups largely than three people in Malaysia (it was three, wasn't it Yasmin? My brain's turning to mush lately). It's not going to affect the stories you personally write, or the overall structure of Subreality. You can do what's always been done with fic that people don't think is worthy of becoming "canon" and ignore it. Perhaps even talk to the writer about why you don't like it, personally.
Sometimes it feels like my brain's failing on me. I'm tired and I can't concentrate on anything, and I'm forgetting everything and my sleep patterns are screwed. My psych tells me it's stress. But whatever it is, it means that I'm probably not capable of doing my moderating job beyond compiling and sorting out the occasion continuity glitch (when it's pointed out to me). So please, sort it out yourselves.
Because I can't find it in me to care.
