@bambihausen *sends my weekly fix of latest AEW GIFs*

Me: why are all these men so submissive and breedable this week?

@bambihausen : well, that's because the top two GIFs are the Young Bucks

Me: well yeah, those two boys are submissive and breedable by default. Like, I'm pretty sure one's middle name is "submissive" and the others' middle name is "breedable"

@bambihausen: I believe it!

One should always have at least 2 craft projects going. That way, when one of them is messed up and misbehaving, you can switch to another, and let the first one sit there and think about what it's done.

Sometimes (oftentimes), when a creative project is "misbehaving," it's because it is tired, and overstimulated, and just needs a time out to rest -- like toddlers often need.

And sometimes, you should give your creative projects time to talk to each other, as well as to you.

Instructions unclear; my 17 ongoing craft projects have unionized against me.

DO NOT SEND YOUR GOFUNDME

I haven't logged in here in a while but just arrived to a bunch of thinly veiled guilt trips from less than legitimate looking requests for aid for people supposedly trapped in Palestine. Several came from blogs that have already closed down. Others came from blogs where there was only one post and had obviously been set up solely for this purpose. I had the same issue when Ukraine was the hot button topic du jour.

Do not send those to me. I will not share them.

I donate to UNWRA or to other sources that I can independently verify are legitimate and are actually on the ground helping people. There are plenty out there.

Even if you are legitimate do not contact me here. I do not trust posts like that on social media. I was a fraud advisor for a major bank for six years, it takes more than a sad story, a few emojis and a skeevy looking link to part me from my cash.

Smashing out Mesh (crochet)

So I have been doing a lot of filet and mesh crochet recently and I got to thinking.

There has to be a faster way.

Disclaimer: This is not my original idea, and I will admit that I basically took this and extrapolated. Hence why I'm sharing this for free.

I figured out the equation that tells you how to crochet a lot of rows at the same time.

Caveats:

I've tested this on mesh (3DC blocks) and fillet (4DC blocks) up to 5 rows at a time. I use ergonomic hooks and doing more than that on them just isn't physically comfortable with Super Saver yarn, though I can confirm that a 5 row setup also works with lace weight yarn so if the yarn is thin enough or you're using a Tunisian hook I don't see why you couldn't do more than 5 at a time.

You don't have to use this method, but if you do want to smash out a quick mesh or filet project, you can.

I made this on a 11" tablet so it should be very zoomable on any device for readability.

Enjoy!

everyone should get into BBC Robin Hood (2006-2009). it has everything:

archery

homoerotic overtones

shirtless men getting tied up a lot

a very camp villain

socialist message

homoerotic codependent relationships

a budget of about £20

girl disguised as boy (very gender)

goofs

I think it's hard to watch online but if you come over to my place we can watch it on DVD

So I have read several people complaining that they can’t be expected to know the “unwritten rules” of fandom. So here’s what I wish people knew:

Fanfiction is fiction.

Fictional people are not real.

Fictional people do not have rights.

Fictional people cannot be abused.

Reading or writing about something does not mean the desire to do or support it in the real world.

If I find art upsetting/triggering/disgusting/outraging/unpleasant/squicky/distressing/offensive, it is on me not to read it, not the creators and hosts to remove it.

Curate your own experience. The back buttons exist for a reason.

If you don’t trust yourself to do that, get someone you trust to do it for you.

Fandom is an adult space. Adults create and own and host fandom spaces. If minors want to participate, then the onus is on them and their parents/guardians/trusted adults to ensure they participate appropriately, not on strange adults to stop being adults.

You often don’t know the assault status or mental health status or neurotype or race or nationality or religion or gender or sexuality or age of a creator or consumer, and they do not have to disclose to you to justify their fantasy.

AO3 is not a safe space. It is not intended to be a safe space. Proceed accordingly.

Just because you don’t like something or find it offensive doesn’t mean it is a “problem” that “has to be dealt with”.

Most characters in anime are not white.

There is no onus on you to reblog or share anything.

Everyone makes mistakes in fandom and is less than their best self sometimes.

Persistent pseudonyms encourage long term relationships.

Ship wars are stupid.

Someone else enjoying things does not impact on your own enjoyment of other things.

Tagging and warning is a courtesy, not a requirement. Assume any fic might contain untagged content.

Rating is an imprecise art, not a science.

Don’t hassle IP creators.

Most people who are in fandom are hoping to make connections based on a shared passion.

Trying to profit from transformative fanworks puts us all at risk.

No one is obligated to share your head canon or fanon.

Being kind rarely fails to pay off.

It is okay to block and remove people who make your experience unpleasant. You don’t have to placate them. (Learn from my mistakes).

Britpicking is a good thing.

You don’t have to justify why you like a canon/pairing/trope/kink. Sometimes navel gazing is fun, but you don’t have an obligation to explain yourself, especially to strangers. I share the overwhelming desire to refute an unfair accusation, but the people accusing you are rarely doing so in good faith, so you’re batting a losing wicket.

I’m not your Mum. (Well, okay, a very few of you can call me Mum or Mom, but if you are one of them you already know who you are ❤️)

If you aren’t mature enough to take responsibility for your online experiences, you aren’t mature enough to be in fandom spaces.

This is wonderfully informative. The one about tagging especially resonates with me. I have gotten some nasty comments about not tagging something in my fics that I didn’t even realize was an issue until someone pointed it out (in the worst way). It didn’t feel fair at the time, but they made me feel like it was my fault they were offended. But, like, books don’t come with warning tags. People spend good money on books that tell you almost nothing about their content. Yet it’s my fault you’re traumatized because I failed to tag one scene in a 100 chapter fic that you’re reading for free? … Yeah.

I do my best to tag things, but I may not always realize certain things are triggering for other people. A simple request is all it takes. I will gladly add a tag if you think it should be there, even if you decide you can’t read my fic because of the content.

But, at the end of the day, you read at your own risk. If you can’t deal/don’t like it, stop reading/don’t read it. Really. It won’t hurt my feelings, and you need to protect yourself.
