why is it that every time I like a luffy fanart the algorithm thinks I want my tl flooded with z*s*n like what the fuck he’s not even a part of that ship how can this app be so broken

One technique that's been helping me with story outlines lately is figuring out what my story ISN'T going to do.

When I'm having trouble deciding what I want from my characters, who I want them to be, how I want them to change, it can be helpful to stop and think about what I definitely don't want to write. Then I can sometimes reverse-engineer those hard no's into what DOES appeal to me.

I don't want this plot to just be a repeat of this other thing. I don't want the story to fall into this trope. I don't want this scene to be comfortable. I don't want the prose to feel natural here. I don't want the audience to guess the way the twist unfolds.

I don't want the pacing to drag on by having too many chapters. I don't really want to cover that theme so I'm going to leave that part of things unexplored. I don't like this element, so I'm cutting it. Etc..

Sometimes, it's easier to express a "DO NOT WANT!!!" than a desire, you know?

people who dont maintag: here is a full analysis of a scene where i write out what each character considered the situation to be, why their pasts made them react the way they did, and why the eventual misunderstanding was as avoidable as it was inevitable… #rambles #idk if this means anything so i wont spam tags ^^;

people who do maintag: i hate blorbo #blorbo #from my shows

Roll for 3 ingredients. Could you make a meal out of these?

Yes, quite easily!

Theoretically...

I can't think of what I could make my ingredients into :/

Absolutely vile ingredient choices!

guys with this update i lowkey think swiss might be agoraphobic

[iphigeniacomplex]

i am so endlessly fascinated by the cultural construct of the evil child and everything implied by telling a story where a child is evil and that is a fact of the world audiences are being asked to accept. and the fact that it is accepted!!!! often without question!!!!!! and in case carl jung or any of the little carl jung juniors are reading this my childhood was perfectly acceptable and i think about it an appropriate amount

[iphigeniacomplex]

(from suffer the little children by stephen king)

there's a degree to which it is an adult power fantasy. like, the construction of a child whom it is not just okay to hurt but in fact morally inevitable. what stands out in stories about evil children (and what stands out in this passage) is that the way the perceived innocence of childhood is used to hide the horror of what is really going on from onlookers is also the way adults in real life use the perception of the adult as protector to convince others, as well as themselves, of harm to children's absolute necessity. you wouldn't believe it, and neither would anyone else. if you, you know, tried to tell 'em.

no more nuance we have to kill anyone who's ever called sakura a bitch.

[nohara-rin-dot-mp3]

actually. no that's too nuanced still. no more nuance we have to kill everyone who's ever called sakura the mom friend. or the brain cell. or the normal onew. or ignored her in any way for any other member of team 7.

[nohara-rin-dot-mp3]

oh my god

[faggoatquixote]

so funny when you see some random woman terfing out and calling herself anti gender while defending the concept of sex. like the radical feminists of the 70s like Shulamith weren’t doing coke rants about how the only real feminist action should be destroying human sexual dimorphism with advanced future tech

“is it ethical to fuck your own clone” it’s not ethical to fuck anything.

I think before you accuse people of being just like Christian conservatives for expressing discomfort with your public fetish for incest and child rape you should perhaps consider the primary advocates for and perpetrators of these acts of violence

[wolchefant]

cant be bothered to care about whether or not some men are incidentally harmed by the patriarchy like why is that always being pivoted to. men should oppose the patriarchy on the simple principle of it being a system that harms others. if you cant oppose unjust systems until you’re personally inconvenienced then you are not a moral or principled person

Sometimes people will hate a parent-type character in a way that's so far from actual canon that you can tell it's not the character they really hate but Their Dad from Real Life. Which is fair but really annoying when you're trying to post about The Character

[likeadog]

like im sorry ive had to block multiple people in the last few months for like trying to soft launch being into incest idc if its fictional or not if you like that shit get out of my house
