a book is a dream that you hold in your hands

Kali she/her frequently inactive apart of so many fandoms i've lost count no sideblogs, everything is crammed onto here

some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

I couldn't remember the word "doorknob" ten minutes ago.

ai can never ever write half as good as an average tired writer who pulls an all-nighter writing a slow burn gay fanfiction for their favorite fictional characters out of hyperfixation, love, passion and spite they have for the way canon treated their little gay ship

I fully believe that conservatives do not want their tax dollars going to fund school lunches for children because they see children not as individual people but rather as extensions of their parents, and they view a child’s hunger as a moral failing of the parent to maintain their property rather than a hungry child being a vulnerable individual that deserves to be fed.

[dragon-in-a-fez]

forever confused about the number of people on this site who think "children are property and not people" is a "right-wing" belief and not like. completely normalised among 90% of society

the belief that children are people is radical. it is wholly outside the Overton window. average "love is love" liberal will straight up say shit like "children do not have rights" with zero prompting.

[donniehaspronouns]

thank you for saying what I was too tired to explain. liberals in america are functionally conservative.

people saying “don’t use your full government name for your ao3”, “create different emails for work and personal use” but personally I think it’s both sad and dystopian how capitalism/companies/even schools think they have the rights to cross your personal boundaries and insert themselves into your personal life. like, I get it, safety wise, why checking digital footprints can be important sometimes. but a gay fanfiction is not a fucking threat that could ever cause anybody harm. it’s funny (not really, it’s still sad and dystopian) how they now think they can control your personal life and prevent you from having hobbies

kudos aren’t enough. I need to express my love to fanfic writers by serenading them in their front yards at night like a lovesick poet in the 50s
