My adhd is cronic but this ass is iconic

i reblog things i like and cry over anime 20 years old

Twitter is a prison because why are they calling Daniel Molloy racist and homophobic for calling Armand a friendless bottom twink???? Baby, that's the pottle calling the kettle black.

[frangipani-wanderlust]

So the creator titled this "Caveman Cooking," but I have decided that it is Grug the Orc making Peanut Butter Squares. Link to original post.

Sound on. Trust me.

[hyperfixatedwhor3]

Maybe this is just me, but I can barely wait to see exactly HOW Daniel fucked up Armand's head during their 12 year relationship (because that's obviously going to be canon).

We know Armand was himself™, so nothing new in that front other than I think it's funny that, apparently, he made Daniel forget he was ever into men after they broke up, but wtf did Daniel do to make Armand like THAT????

Also, crack theory, Armand has beef with Marius in this version bc Daniel rebounded with him after one of their breakups (and Danny boy rode that D to get a book of his published), and he made his fascinating boy forget he was ever into men so that did not repeat.

I love that the modern-day tumblr post equivalent of chain emails only requires me to reblog a relatively pleasant image instead of forward an email to a bunch of my friends and family members to quell my raging anxiety.

It’s a win win. I get a bit of hope, you get a cute birb photo

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Oh good, now I have a cheat sheet for Uncensored Nate

[teaboot]

I’ve narrowed it down to these three top reasons OP should be allowed to commit arson

[bisexual-engineer-girl]

Walking around with this sheet in hand and pointedly taking it out and methodically searching through it every time I want to say something

[recoiloperated]

This is killing me.

Excuse me, sir, has to be my favorite of the list

New writing rule: Checkov’s friend

If you introduce a named character with a relationship to a protagonist, their character arc must be resolved in a way that feels reasonable and satisfying

Which is to say: they can’t just dissappear when they’re no longer a convenient plot device

[cluegrrl]

Thor’s Mum rule – If you’re going to kill a character who’s carried any part of the plot, take a bit to reimagine the plot as if she were the main character, and the story ends when she dies.  If it’s unsatisfying, rewrite either her plot points, or her death, to make both more meaningful.

Which is to say – don’t treat side characters as ammo with which to hurt your main guy.  ESPECIALLY if they’re women.

[dr-dendritic-trees]

I’m reblogging because this second part is the best explanation of how I distinguish between fridged characters and other characters who just die.

And yes, it is intrinsically a bit subjective and that’s okay.

"I want to kiss you but also maybe punch a wall about it." OC behaviors

❤ he looks at her mouth mid-conversation and immediately pretends he didn’t.

❤ she laughs a little too hard at his bad joke and then bites her lip like it’ll keep the real feelings in.

❤ he adjusts his shirt collar even though it doesn’t need adjusting. the air got hotter for some reason??? (hormones.)

❤ she crosses her arms, uncrosses them, then tucks her hands in her back pockets. because what do you even do with your hands when he’s standing that close?

❤ he leans in to say something and she doesn’t hear it, on purpose, just to make him do it again, closer.

❤ her laugh is quieter now. more private, like it’s just for him.

❤ he bumps her shoulder “accidentally” but makes zero effort to move away after.

❤ her pinky brushes his. it’s .02 seconds of contact but now neither of them can remember what they were talking about.

❤ he tugs on the end of his sleeve while staring at the floor because if he looks up he’ll 100% say something reckless.

❤ she says his name a little too softly. a little too slowly and now he’s useless for the rest of the scene.

❤ they both start talking at the same time, then stop, then smile, then look away, then freak out internally for the next five pages.

Angry Dialogues - Vol. 2

✧ “You don’t get to hurt me and then act confused when I don’t trust you anymore.”

✧ “Say it. Say it out loud. Say exactly what you did so you can hear how f*cked up it sounds.”

✧ “Stop acting like I’m the villain for reacting to the sh*t you did.”

✧ “You lied to my face, and you’re still looking at me like I’m the one who owes you something.”

✧ “I begged you not to break me. And you did it anyway.”

✧ “You keep saying you ‘did your best.’ Your best nearly destroyed me.”

✧ “I would’ve forgiven you. You didn’t even ask.”

✧ “Every time I think of you, it feels like rot in my throat.”

✧ “You want to talk? Fine. Let’s talk about how you abandoned me the second it got inconvenient.”

✧ “I’m not angry anymore. That would mean I still cared enough to be hurt. Now? I’m just done.”

✧ “You always show up when it’s too late and expect me to be the same person who waited."

✧ “You don’t get to miss me. You threw me away. You don’t miss trash.”

✧ “I kept waiting for the version of you who said you loved me to show back up. He never did.”

✧ “You broke my heart and then asked me to help you clean up the mess. That’s not love. That’s manipulation.”

Soft prompts to make you YEARN

✭ brushing your thumb over their knuckles while you're both not saying a word, just existing quietly in the same space like it's the most sacred thing.

✭ them absentmindedly playing with the hem of your sleeve because they want to touch you but aren’t ready to say it yet.

✭ “can i kiss you?” whispered like they’re afraid the moment might shatter if they speak too loud.

✭ their voice cracking just a little when they say your name for the first time in a long time.

✭ them resting their forehead against yours and just… staying there. No words. No movement. Just breath. Just nearness.

✭ sharing headphones and they keep looking at you during the best part of the song. you don’t even know what the song means to them but suddenly it means everything to you.

✭ "stay the night?" said so soft it might’ve been a wish.

✭ dragging their fingers gently down your back like they’re trying to memorize the map of your spine.

✭ tracing your features with their fingertip like you're a sculpture in a museum and they were not supposed to touch you, but god, they can’t help it.

✭ “don’t leave yet.” not because you’re going somewhere. but because being with you is the safest they’ve felt all day.

✭ their voice in the dark. low. quiet. like the night is just for you two.

✭ "this reminded me of you" and it’s just a stupid rock or a weird leaf but you hold onto it like it's a diamond because it's you to them.

✭ laying in bed, face smushed into the pillow, sleep-drunk and murmuring, “you make me feel like i’m home.”

✭ them looking at you like you're not just a person, but their favorite story. one they’ve been rereading since forever and still keep finding new parts to fall in love with.

How to use Em Dash (—) and Semi Colon ( ; )

Since the ai accusations are still being thrown around, here's how i personally like to use these GASP ai telltales. 🦄✨

Em Dashes (—)

To emphasize a shift / action / thought.

They're accusing us—actually accusing us—of using AI.

To add drama.

They dismissed our skills as AI—didn't even think twice, the dimwits—and believed they were onto something.

To insert a sudden thought. Surely they wouldn't do that to us—would they?

To interrupt someone's speech. "Hey, please don't say that. I honed my craft through years of blood and tears—" "Shut up, prompter."

To interrupt someone's thoughts / insert a sudden event.

We're going to get those kudos. We're going to get those reblogs—

A chronically online Steve commented, “it sounds like ai, idk.”

Semi Colons ( ; )

To join two closely related independent sentences / connect ideas.

Not only ChatGPT is capable of correct punctuation; who do you think it learned from in the first place?

Ultimate pro tip: use them whenever the fuck you want. You don't owe anyone your creative process. 🌈

5 Tiny Writing Tips That Aren’t Talked About Enough (but work for me)

These are some lowkey underrated tips I’ve seen floating around writing communities — the kind that don’t get flashy attention but seriously changed how I write.

1. Put “he/she/they” at the start of the sentence less often.

Try switching up your sentence rhythm. Instead of

“She walked to the window,”

try

“The window creaked open under her touch.”

Keeps it fresh and stops the paragraph from sounding like a checklist.

2. Don’t describe everything — describe what matters.

Instead of listing every detail in a room, pick 2–3 objects that say something.

“A half-drunk mug of tea and a knife on the table”

sets a way stronger tone than

“There was a wooden table, two chairs, and a shelf.”

3. Use beats instead of dialogue tags sometimes.

Instead of:

"I'm fine," she said.

Try:

"I'm fine." She wiped her hands on her skirt.

It helps shows emotion, and movement.

4. Write your first draft like no one will ever read it.

No pressure. No perfection. Just vibes. The point of draft one is to exist. Let it be messy and weird — future you will thank you for at least something to edit.

5. When stuck, ask: “What’s the most fun thing that could happen next?”

Not logical. Not realistic. FUN. It doesn’t have to stay — but chasing excitement can blast through writer’s block and give you ideas you actually want to write.

What’s a tip that unexpectedly helped with your writing? Let me know!! 🍒

Things That Are Attractive to Read About a Woman Doing...

⭒ Fixing her lipstick in the mirror without looking away from you, like she knows exactly where your eyes are and likes it.

⭒ Running her fingers through her hair after something messy, like she’s resetting herself, but somehow it makes you want to ruin her again.

⭒ Laughing with her head thrown back, completely unbothered, like nothing in the world could touch her unless she lets it.

⭒ Pulling her sleeves over her hands when she’s cold, then slipping her fingers into yours without asking.

⭒ Looking up at you from under her lashes like she’s debating whether you’re worth her time... and you want to earn it.

⭒ Sitting on a countertop, legs swinging, sipping something strong and looking at you like she’s already decided how this night ends.

⭒ Stretching with zero self-consciousness, back arched, shirt riding up, like she forgot you were watching, or didn’t care.

⭒ Standing way too close when she’s arguing with you, eyes locked, voice low, like the fight’s just foreplay.

⭒ Smudging mascara under her eyes after a long night, and somehow looking even hotter wrecked than she did going out.

⭒ Catching you staring and not looking away, just raising a brow like yeah?

⭒ Curling up in your hoodie and making it look criminally better than you ever did.

⭒ Putting on jewelry in the mirror, slow and focused, like each ring and clasp is armor, and she’s about to start a war.

⭒ Dancing alone, headphones in, eyes closed, completely lost in her own world, and you’d sell your soul to be let in.

100 Dialogue Tags You Can Use Instead of “Said”

For the writers struggling to rid themselves of the classic ‘said’. Some are repeated in different categories since they fit multiple ones (but those are counted once so it adds up to 100 new words). 

1. Neutral Tags 

Straightforward and unobtrusive dialogue tags: 

Added, Replied, Stated, Remarked, Responded, Observed, Acknowledged, Commented, Noted, Voiced, Expressed, Shared, Answered, Mentioned, Declared.

2. Questioning Tags 

Curious, interrogative dialogue tags:

Asked, Queried, Wondered, Probed, Inquired, Requested, Pondered, Demanded, Challenged, Interjected, Investigated, Countered, Snapped, Pleaded, Insisted.

3. Emotive Tags 

Emotional dialogue tags:

Exclaimed, Shouted, Sobbed, Whispered, Cried, Hissed, Gasped, Laughed, Screamed, Stammered, Wailed, Murmured, Snarled, Choked, Barked.

4. Descriptive Tags

10. Surprise Tags

Shock-inducing dialogue tags:

Gasped, Stunned, Exclaimed, Blurted, Wondered, Staggered, Marvelled, Breathed, Recoiled, Jumped, Yelped, Shrieked, Stammered.

Note: everyone is entitled to their own opinion. No I am NOT telling people to abandon said and use these. Yes I understand that said is often good enough, but sometimes you WANT to draw attention to how the character is speaking. If you think adding an action/movement to your dialogue is 'good enough' hate to break it to you but that ruins immersion much more than a casual 'mumbled'. And for the last time: this is just a resource list, CALM DOWN. Hope that covers all the annoyingly redundant replies :)
