hey guys you know a work can have challenging & disturbing & weird themes without it actually being a kink that the writers have, right? I know we all like to use that “the author’s barely disguised fetish” meme but i truly need y’all to understand that some things are just recurring themes & motifs in a body of work without it being sexual for the writers or anyone involved in the creation of art. It’s important to me that y’all know this.

Tfw you're writing a long, very self-indulgent fanfic with zero readers, so every time you update it, you feel a bit like you're just mental masturbating... and when you say that to your friend they say THIS without missing a beat. Lol.

men make it absolutely impossible to practice humility

gothhabiba

what you say: “I think this is the case”

what men hear: “I have no idea whatsoever, but here’s a totally random guess”

what you say: “I’m not an expert on this subject”

what men hear: “I don’t know anything about this subject and need its bare fundamentals explained to me”

what you say: “I could be better read in this area”

what men hear: “I have never read anything in this area”

gothhabiba

like okay fuck it nevermind I’m actually an expert in every subject I’ve ever read or heard about. in fact I know everything.

If anyone's ever wondering why I come across as such an arrogant bitch on Tumblr it's because I used to work in science with a lot of men and never readjusted my communication style afterward.

respectissexy

This is one of my biggest seemingly low-stakes feminist soapboxes. Women are often encouraged to take hedging, consensus-seeking, and checking-in phrases out of their speech in order to seem "more confident". And listen, of course you do not need to say "I think" when you actually know for pretty damn sure, or double-check every little thing you say, or apologize for things that are out of your control.

But there are men in my life who I respect, who I think are generally good communicators, but who have admitted to me that if they do not know the answer to something they will just state their best guess in a confident tone of voice, with no hedging or clarification to warn the listener that what they just said was pulled from their ass.

I once asked my high school boyfriend what noise a platypus makes and he confidently told me "oh they quack" and I said "really? that seems like they'd have different noise-making structures than ducks since they're not birds" and he said "oh yeah you're probably right. I was just guessing." And had no idea why I was mad! I was like, so if I ask you a question you might just bullshit me?? What if I had believed you and gone and repeated that to other people? I could have looked like an idiot. I could have spread misinformation to a ton of people! But I have told that story to other men and had them say "oh yeah I totally do that."

This is so much worse communication than just saying "I don't know but I think..." There shouldn't be campaigns training professional women to sound "more confident," there should be campaigns training professional MEN to stop doing whatever THAT is!

Fuck that post going around saying "you can have coffee in your story without justifying it :) you don't need to explain everything :)" I want, no, I DEMAND a fully researched ethnobotanical paper on every single food item in your work, if you don't explain to me where did potatoes come from in your fantasy setting or don't explain how the industry of coffee works over interstellar distances with full detail you are doing things wrong and I personally hate you and I hate your stupid story, fuck you

elbiotipo

Why are your stupid little wizards and knights eating potato stew in your dumb European middle ages fantasy world. Where did they get potatoes from. Where is the center of domestication of potatoes, do you have a fantasy Andean civilization? What are the social and economic consequences of having such a calorie rich crop in cold climates. I don't care about "themes" or "enemies to lovers with found family", I didn't ask about that. Where does your idiot space captain gets their shitty coffee from. Is it imported from Earth? Are there coffee growing worlds? Is it an alien species replacement with the same name? What are the social consequences of that? Don't try to change the subject, I'll stop pointing the gun when I want, I'm trying to have a conversation here,

Sometimes I get a bit sad that my most favourite fanfic that Ive ever written only has 122 kudos... but then I realize that means 122 different people not only read my story, but really liked it. That's actually pretty cool. The internet truly has warped our sense of numbers.

(Still, it'd be cool if more people read this fanfic. It is literally my favourite of everything Ive ever written.)

David Tennant part from “Tell It To My Heart - Juliette Lewis w/ the cast of Camping

tifaria

Oh my God, all the other actors are like, just doing their daily routines while lip-synching and Mr. Tennant over here is like “MY TIME TO SHINE” and fully mouth-fucks a shower head. Why is he like this.

Truly the gif set that launched 1000 fanfics

[image description for previous screenshot of the tags: #look #i just want to say

#this is as close to an apologetic lapsed catholic as i will ever come #as a very lapsed catholic #because i missed this #i did not know it existed until this morning

#and now i do and i am sorry that i stepped out of my tennant period #but now i am back #and i note several things #firstly what the fuck

#secondly what the fuck no one asked you to do this #thirdly this would be bad if it was a weird leaked thing but you just chose to do it

#fourthly the fifth gif you chose to do that

#fifthly is that your shower because those hand held shower heads #sixthly the fifth gif man what the fuck

#seventhly like like fine fuck up and film it but this wasn’t live you had multiple times to reel this back in and you didn’t

#eighthly there’s only one time he isn’t eyefucking the lens and that’s the fifth gif and i just think we all need to think about #and then log off the internet for a few years #david tennant #im fine]

I just made my spouse look at this gif set and they said “Is he brushing his teeth?”

And I said “No. sir. He is giving a blow job. To his shower head”

They tried to insist it was a toothbrush and I pointed out that it has a metal cord. Then they said “Cynically, what if this is just fan service?”

And I was like “OF COURSE it’s fan service! Who gives their shower head a blow job while recording it‽?” 😂😂🥵🚿💦

I do wish David Tennant had a social media account 😅

Sometimes I remember this is a thing that happened and need to share it again

I get 19. I never owned a walkman.

19. Never had a waterbed, but my friend did and I slept on it at a sleepover. I hated it.

at some point in your life you will be boiling fruit, water, sugar, and lemon juice in a pot to make a syrup or jam. the instructions will tell you to simmer for a certain amt of time. your timer will go off and you will look at the pot and go, "hm, this doesn't look thick enough. maybe i'll let it go for another 10 minutes." this is the devil speaking. it's only so liquid right now because it is at boiling point. it will thicken when it cools down. learn from the follies of my youth and do not let this happen to you

yokowan

at some point in your life you will be making a sauce or a stew in which you need to add cornstarch to thicken it. and you will prepare a slurry of starch in cold water and think "this looks like way too little starch to thicken this amount of liquid." this is the devil speaking. cornstarch instantly polymerizes at 95°C and if you add too much it will turn into an impossibly thick goop.

le-jardin-inculte

at some point in your life you will be making some sort of cream based dessert that requires gelatin to thicken it. and you will soak some gelatin sheets in water and think "this is too few gelatin sheets for this amount of cream." this is the devil speaking. it will thicken in the fridge and if you add too much you will end up with milk jelly

Obviously as a gay Lutheran I don’t agree with Mr. the pope on a lot of things but I think it’s wild when he’s like “be nice and don’t be fascist” and then conservative Catholics get mad at him. Like bro that’s your boss, basically your king, and he’s just telling you to be nice to people and don’t be a nazi. If thats offensive I think you might need to do some reflection.

sassyphantomkoala

Why do you as a Lutheran have disagreements with the pope?

melonisopod

Disagreements with the pope is kind of how Lutheranism was invented.

sistertaxon

why are there so many posts about asexuals being immune to sirens. people. sirens don’t lure you in with sex (necessarily). they sing about whatever it is that you want most. they could sing about mothman or cinnamon toast crunch and guess what then your asexual pirate is fucking dead

thesylverlining

this is the only kind of ace discourse i ever want to see on my dash. the only kind. ever again. good job

kittyknowsthings

Do you think the sirens would be grateful that they finally get some variety?

systlin

“Oh my god we can finally just sing about pasta thank the fucking gods.”

totohoy-blog

I’m not asexual but I’m fairly certain sirens would do a far better job luring me into the depths with a song about pasta rather than sex…

This is true; Odysseus heard them promising him knowledge of the future. So the next time you see artwork like this:

Remember those sultry naked chicks are saying “We’ll tell you the winning lotto numbers.”
