imagine before the draft lottery all the draft projections were like, hollander and rozanov are both so fucking good but hollander is canadian and the bottom two teams are montreal & ottawa so he's got a slight edge. then boston sitting at fifth wins the lottery and rozanov is obviously the right fit for boston, everybody knows that. shane hollander sitting with the increasingly certain knowledge that he didn't do anything wrong but he's going to get drafted second anyway. hockey's never been fair. he loves it so much and it never loves him back. a fucking lottery.

Thank god Ilya married Shane Hollander because he did have his thumb over the buy button on a Cybertruck & Shane said “that is the least fuckable car I’ve ever seen” & Ilya cleared his browser history

guys this fic is fucking killing me and then bringing me back to life and then killing me again in an even more brutal fashion i can’t i caaaaan’t

[oflights]

AI fic voice is so distinctive to me now that it's given me incredible confidence in my own writing lol. like even when i struggle or overthink sentence structure, at least i'm not doing that incessant "not x. not y. but z" shit, or those terrible one-line paragraphs for ~drama. or that annoying second person POV structure like "a did b, the way you do b when c is happening in the middle of a terrible anthropomorphism or weak figurative construct"

claude syntax is so rampant and i have so much disdain for it and it makes me appreciate the ways i learned to move beyond certain prose crutches. i grew out of using "the thing about f is" but claude loves that. what sucks is that fic writers tend to form their styles around the fic they read, and when it's a lot of AI writing, they'll pick up those claude choices without realizing why they suck. the solution to this, which i will always tell every single fanfic writer if they ask me how to improve their writing, is to read more tradpub books. as many as possible. this is the only cure.

[probablily]

I read a pet play fic for another fandom where they were literally microchipped and I think someone should write that for hollanov

[happyholigayss]

i was thinking of logan in off-campus and I don’t quite get all the girlies thirsting over him… but I have a theory… for those brave enough to see it…

[the-eccentric-eclectic]

Hey kid, look at me.

I want you to T-pose. Turn your right thumb up and your left thumb doen and look at your right thumb. Move your arms up and down a bit until you feel a nerve running from your armpit to your palm. Now turn your right thumb down and your left thumb up, and look at your left thumb. Keep your chest facing forward and your shoulders back. Move your arms again until you feel that nerve again. Keep alternating between these two for a minute, or look at each thumb thirty times each.

Now sit down. Put your left hand firmly under your left buttock, palm down. Keep your shoulders back and put your right hand over the crown of your head, very gently pulling it to the right. Do this for thirty seconds, then do it again but with your right hand under your right buttock.

These are stretches for the nerves in your arms, and are very good for people who sit behind a computer a lot, or fibre artists, or you name it. Do them daily. They will hurt in the beginning, but keep doing them, even after the pain has gone, or it will return and you'll have to start all over.

Hey, I know another type of stretch for this!

I had to go to occupational therapy a while back due to pain in my ulnar nerve (same nerve that acts as your 'funny bone'). It was getting compressed from jamming my elbow against hard plastic armrests that were in a too-tall fixed position on my cheap old office chair. I was having burning and tingling pain and numbness radiating from my elbow into my ring and pinky fingers. It sucked. Honestly, I found it worse than carpal tunnel, because a rigid elbow brace makes life way harder than a rigid wrist brace.

Anyways, the main exercise that my occupational therapist had me do was called a nerve glide. The stretches OP describes help improve flexibility, but the nerve gliding exercise helps move the nerve out of the pinched spot so it can move more freely.

Here's the best diagram I can find of it:

It's a little confusing, so have some extra description on the weird parts:

Step 3: thumb side moves down and towards the front.

Step 4: hand rotates out and around, pinky side first.

Step 5: nothing fancy here, just straighten your elbow.

Step 6 (not on diagram, but recommended by therapist): with arm in the same position, tilt your head towards the opposite side for a few second (works as a stretch).

Ulnar nerve compression (aka cubital tunnel) is apparently super common, but I had never heard of it before I started having issues. If you lean forwards on your desk or armrests a lot, I'd suggest giving these a try. It feels kind of weird because you can feel the nerve, but it shouldn't hurt at all.

Unoriginal sin. Derivative sin

transformative sin tbh
