This Person Needs a Life

All the random stuff no one cares about but that I feel like sharing. Now mostly Star Trek.

Spin this wheel twice... These are your new roommates at Starfleet Academy!

How do you feel about this?

AMAZING!!!! This is the best case scenario

Great! I like both of these people

Good.

Eh... Could be better, but it could be worse

Bad. I'm not going to enjoy this year

TERRIBLE. Someone will end up dead

I'm dropping out

other/nuance/secret whatever option

Remaining time: 3 days 9 hours

if one/both of your new roommates is a child you assume responsibility of that child

if you get the same person twice, you have to live with both of them

[frogayyyy]

there's actually only one best case scenario

[pom-seedss]

Katherine Pulaski and Lwaxana Troi??

No. We will all be dying by the end of the first week. I am not going to put up with that immovable object vs unstoppable force bullshit for an entire semester.

#how long have we been holding on to this one?

[adulthoodisokay]

i’ve had this queued for 365 days

[ebonysolcum]

I’m 99.9999% sure that are some point in Voyager there’s a shot of the wall opposite the bed/viewport in Janeway’s bedroom, and it’s got a table full of knickknacks, but I can’t for the life of me remember what episode it’s in. If anyone knows what episode it’s in, or can at least share a picture of it with me, that’d be great.

Or if I’m completely making this up, let me know so I don’t bother to continue looking for it. 😂

EDIT: It has been found! (For anyone wondering, it’s Season 2 Episode 8 “Persistence of Vision” … which, incidentally, was the first episode I checked. I just didn’t let the clip play long enough. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️)

everybody say thank you, fanfiction

[ohangeleyes]

alright, i'll be the one to say it. ao3 and tumblr becoming "mainstream" did so much damage to the community and the writers. i have seen loads of videos and posts about:

1. people hating on writers and fics. writing is something we do for free and for fun. if you stumble upon a fanfic that isn't necessarily your cup of tea or you just don't like, scroll. dont read it. literally leave their page. you don't know if this could be the author's first work that they're so excited about, you dont know if the language they're writing in isn't their first language, you dont know that the writer could be a literal teen and loads of other reasons. fanfictions don't HAVE to be perfect. you write what you want to write because we do it for fun and enjoyment and we want to share that to the world. seriously, what is the wrong with that?..

2. x reader consumers getting WAY too entitled. the number of tiktoks i've seen that say "i run a strict program when it comes to reading fanfics." girl you aint running shit. this is FAN FICTION you're reading. F A N F I C T I O N. there is no denying that most fanfiction writes are beyond talented but just because you read one fanfic that exceeds your expectations doesn't give you the right to talk down on others that don't. people have their own personal writing style, their way of doing things and you talking shit on that isn't right.

at the end of the day, we are all humans, reading and writing is what we do and what we're meant to do. and for you to talk shit about a person WRITING is so insane. we are humans. not some robots that you can tell what to do so you can consume it.

i've seen so so many authors take down their fanfics and losing all motivation to write because of a hate comment. DONT LIKE DONT READ‼️

and to every author reading this, this community values your work and your contribution. we love u and, please, never let anyone's negative words have an effect on you.

Janeway and Chakotay having romantic candlelit conversations KILLS ME

Denial is not just a river in Egypt.

[admiralkatcornwellfan]

Sometimes they dont even know who the other person is because complete memory loss/ personality alteration... but... Flirting ?? oh god these two

[l-r4inb0w]

Fic writers & fellow Ao3 users I have a question-

Do you like it/is it correct Ao3 etiquette to comment on a fic you liked even if it’s like, from 2005 and from a fandom long dead? I’ve been tossing and turning about this because I don’t wanna accidentally like, bring back middle school trauma for sonicfan420 on a random Tuesday.

ALWAYS COMMENT

[mindibindi]

I am no longer actively writing in one of the fandoms I used to write for but I am still active on A03, where I've posted a selection of stories from each of my past fandoms. A reader just commented on an old fic of mine, saying they'd love to see others imported from ff.net. I asked which ones (cos there are a lot, that's why I haven't done it already). She gave me a list of 4 fics. So yesterday, I imported a TEN YEAR OLD FIC and today, I woke up to a bunch of lovely comments. Some of these readers might've read this fic before, some not. Some might never have read it if this one reader didn't request it. I might never have imported it if it hadn't been requested. I honestly didn't think people would care about something I wrote a decade ago. But they did and that makes me HAPPY. TALK to writers. TELL THEM if you like/value/want to read their work. THIS ^^^ THIS is fandom at work. THIS is community.

ALWAYS ALWAYS COMMENT

[bizships]

There is no algorithm on AO3, please stop treating it like there is. It’s not tik tok. It’s not twitter. It’s not facebook.

ALWAYS ALWAYS COMMENT
