So they talk through thoughts

I think we all know the reason the fanfiction sweet spot is essentially mediocre franchise writing, which is that fanfic happens when you’re craving catharsis that the original story doesn’t give you. This is a weird paradox if you’re a writer coming out of fan spaces and wanting to write your own original fiction because if you’re aware of this, then you know that if you make your story complete, there’s less to talk about, and if you’re in fan spaces you’re aware that fanfic is good marketing, so there’s almost a perverse incentive to make your story less complete. Or maybe I’m overthinking it and no one else has bothered to notice this

[ursa-major-7]

You definitely aren't overthinking it. I wouldn't say that mediocrity is a requirement per se, but one way to drive fan engagement is for a work to raise more questions than it answers. It's easy for a mediocre work to do that by raising questions that seem really interesting, then moving on without ever answering them. But a well-crafted story can accomplish the same by creating a sense that the world and/or characters have more going on beyond what the reader/viewer sees.

Yes absolutely thank you you completed my thought lol

Just because you did something wrong in the past doesn’t mean you can’t advocate against it now. It doesn’t make you a hypocrite. You just grew. Don’t let people use your past to invalidate your current mindset.

Bruh. This needs to be a mandatory post on everybody’s blog. Y'all really be pullin out decade old receipts like woah.

guys the gen 10 starters look great!

Due to my weird childhood and my weird brain, I have this very unhelpful compulsion to conceal Everything I do from Everyone. I Cannot be observed performing any action, no matter how mundane. My nervous system is convinced I'm gonna, like, Get In Trouble for eating food at dinnertime or sleeping in my bed at bedtime.

I've taken to asking myself, "Okay does this task actually require subterfuge or am I stealing a balloon on Free Balloon Day"

so. not to doxx myself (i've talked about this here before though) but i live in Kansas. and my license was just revoked very suddenly and immediately because i'm trans and had changed my gender marker.

so now i cannot legally drive or vote until/unless i let them force me to carry around a card that misgenders me and outs me as trans, because i certainly don't look female anymore.

[xochihuacoyotl]

so hey if you have the means and want to help with any of this, please consider donating to the ACLU of Kansas because they are at least going to try to do something to push back against this, and i'm such a panicky wreck that the only thing i can do to get through my immediate gut reaction to having my license revoked tonight (i cannot stress enough that i received the letter today saying that my license is no longer valid tomorrow) is focus on the fact that there's at least one entity trying to protect me and my fellow trans kansans.

Make no mistake, this un-documents transgender people. Next up, expressing any sort of gender that does not conform to the fascists' legally enforced binary will be criminalized as identify fraud, because people's appearance won't match their IDs. I can slippery-slope this into all sorts of horrible futures, but I don't have to. Project 2025 has already done that for us. The future is here.

For transgender residents of Kansas, I know... I know there are so many reasons not to move. It's impossibly expensive, it's heartbreaking to be driven out your community, to perhaps leave your family (however you define it), your job. Or maybe it's what you want! A mix of both. Whatever feelings you have about the possibility of moving to a trans sanctuary state...really, really think about it. There are resources linked below to help guide this decision. There are people--individuals and organizations-- that are here to help.

There is no promise that a state you move to won't slide into the same state-sanctioned human rights violations you're currently experiencing, but what it does promise you is time.

It's important that you survive.

It is important that you survive.

You belong in this world.

And you deserve to thrive.

I also like the idea of showing something as a problem before it’s shown as a strength. Almost every character trait has two sides, and by showing the “bad” side first, it sets things up to not only make sense, but to also be very satisfying.
