Be gentle with me, dear visitor. I cannot claim to be an artist by any means but over the last 8ish months I have found a lot of joy in drawing and painting with water colors. So, I'm sharing this with you. My love, Mizu.

Idk if we have any CLOY fanfic writers that are active here but I had a dream and I would love to see it written 😭 (but also can’t believe I still dream about this couple years after)

Jeong-hyeok and Se-Ri actually connected in Switzerland (the first time) so when she has her accident he knew who she was. He deliberately hid her, lied about her being his fiancé, and got his unit involved because he already loved her. So it was like the same story but they were in love the whole time! The angst let me tell you!!

If this inspires anybody I would give you my first born

A small headcannon if Shepard survives the war.

They sometimes sit down and talk to a photo of Anderson and update him about what's been going on in their life, as well as the lives of their crew.

being in small fandoms really is like *some of the most creative, visually stunning fanart you've seen* (41 notes)

Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.

post so nice had to reblog it twice and force it down everyone's throats

[fleshengine]

At minimum about 4.5 thousand people liked this without reblogging it.

We gotta fix that.

another reminder that what you put in your public bookmarks on ao3 is public, meaning anybody can see them, including the authors.

all of this. heavy on “the fastest way to discourage fandom writers is by rating/assigning numerical value to fanfics”. also the “but don’t you want to get better?” argument is so exhausting to me. because if us fanfic writers want to “get better” at our hobbies, the things we do out of love, and if we want constructive criticism, we will either directly ask for it (so if we didn’t ask, keep your opinion to yourself) or we will go to our trusted friends, whose opinions we actually value, for their feedbacks.

because more often than not, the unsolicited constructive criticism random strangers give us isn’t even constructive criticism but what these people personally want to read. so here’s the thing, us fanfic writers write for ourselves first and foremost. we appreciate people who read our works and show us support, but we’re writing and sharing our works for free — it’s our hobby and passion, our source of comfort, something we do as a form of self care, it’s not a job we are paid to do — so we’re not writing to please anybody but ourselves.

you don’t go up to a stranger you see in public, tell them what you dislike about their clothes and how they can “dress better” then defend your actions by claiming you “have the rights to criticize their clothing because they are in public”.

if you like our fics, cool. if you don’t like them, that’s fine. you can find something else to read. or, better yet, you can WRITE THE THING YOU WANT TO READ YOURSELF, nobody is stopping you. but keep your unsolicited criticism to yourself if we didn’t ask for one.

Sometimes I go crazy and think I can animate things, I don’t know it just happens - it’ll pass.

Also I discovered the 1 megabyte limit on animated gifs; it and I are already bitter enemies. Consequently, there’s a higher resolution version clocking at 2.86 megabyte available here that’s slightly less tiny.
