top 3 hobbies for young adults:

1. borrowing misery from future

2. carrying grief of the past

3. agonizing over the present

being a kid and hearing adults say stuff like "woah 2011 was 4 years ago haha" didn't really convey the fucking horror of a youtube video crossing my recommended labelled "9 years ago" and it's from 2017. that's not true. 9 years ago is 2010 or something. don't lie.

btw it's so fucking stupid you can be anxious physically in your body even after you've decided mentally you don't care. I'm supposed to be in charge here

Read my fic for this year's @bottomjibigbang featuring lovely art by gg-kinko!

My 5k word one-shot has recently turned 30k words. Is this normal for pet one-shots? Is it sick? Should I take mine to the vet?

[pillowspace]

And why won't it naturally transition between this scene and the next? I'm poking it with a stick and everything

OP, this is a VERY common scam in the pet fic industry right now! Fic ideas are marketed as "teacup" one-shots, and unsuspecting writers take them home not being told that they're actually juveniles!

Most alleged one-shots that supposedly cap out at 5k words are only a couple weeks old or severely malnourished, and once they start receiving proper care and writing sessions, they'll blow up to 25k, 50k, or often even 100k or more. This is perfectly normal and the size they were always meant to be!

But sadly, many writers don't have space in their homes & lives for such a long fic, which is why it's a shame they're often presented as one-shots.

Unfortunately, the industry being what it is, sometimes it's safer to stick to drabbles until you're absolutely sure a fic idea you've had your eye on is fully grown.

I just laughed for one year watching this. The casual walk-off is just deadly.

has anyone ever thought about what might happen if two fictional characters kissed . I just wondered if there'd been any research on this or anything

My brother in Christ we shall have a spring wedding

[crabanarchy]

They say ooooh be a good boy for daddy and you'll get a reward. But then the reward is just gay sex. This is bullshit. I wanted a skateboard

[crabanarchy]

Then they say if you're a bad boy daddy will punish you. But what's the punishment? More gay sex! You can't escape it. This whole damn place is in the pocket of Big Sex

rereading your own fics/wips is a very slippery slope into finding out you actually have to finish your fics if you want them finished
