Me ruining my sleep schedule by staying up every night to read fanfiction
reblog if youโre anti censorship and against harassing real people over fictional characters
how it feels to have follow rlly cool people and have cool moots but being to nervous and awkward to talk to them
Writing Resources to use instead of AI
For coming up with character names:
Behind the name (my absolute fav)
Allows you to choose the origin of where you want the name to be from, whether you want a more feminine vs masculine vs androgenous name (as voted by users), random surname generator, and clicking on the name gives you important info like if there are any famous people with the same name, where itโs from, how common it is, and how people tend to see it, etc.
You can also search their name database by letter or meaning or origin, so if you know you want a character who has a name/surname that starts with an A from Ireland, thereโs a whole list for you to choose from.
Census sites
Especially useful if youโre looking for a name from a specific place and/or time period. Just search โ(country) census (year)โ and youโll find a database of real people who lived in that place at that time. No one can ever call your names unrealistic again.
For coming up with place names:
Fantasy name generator
This site can basically come up with any name for any person, place, or thing you might ever need. There are also specific generators for different fandoms if youโre looking to make an OC in an established world.
For finding that one word on the tip of your tongue:
One Look Thesaurus
This is my go-to. Not only can you find synonyms like a regular thesaurus, but you can also describe words like โunhappy smileโ or โquiet laughโ to find the more specific word youโre looking for.
For coming up with ideas:
Word cloud
When I need to inspire a new idea, I write down all the things Iโm interested in (hauntings, academia, lesbians, etc.) and put them into a word cloud to shuffle them next to each other. Sometimes seeing a concept in a new context can spark new ideas!
WWF Discord
This is my discord channel (shameless plug) for when you need to brainstorm off other people but donโt have anyone irl to talk to. Weโre also happy to read and give feedback on writing, answer writing questions, or just chat!
For visualizing places and characters:
Pinterest can at times be a bit too sterile for my tastes, but if you use the right words, you can find more realistic photos of places. For example, adding โaestheticโ after basically any word will bring up a more broad collection of photos to help you flesh out places.
This is also a great way to find photos of people and fashion to help visualize characters. Iโm bad at describing clothes, so I usually collect photos of outfits to help me know what my characters are wearing. Searching up โcharacter inspirationโ will collect more interesting photos and drawings of people who might not exactly be of our world.
(However, to make Pinterest not show you AI results, you have to go into your settings and check the โreduce AIโ box. Luckily, it does mostly work.)
Death to Stock
Like pinterest but completely AI free (hooray!) Only drawback is that you have to pay a monthly subscription (about $20 CAD).
Cosmos
Very similar to pinterest but slightly more "artsy". I'm not super familiar with this one but I believe all the photos are human and you can save them and create collections with a free account.
Dupe Photos
Royalty-free stock image site with very Pinterest-core photos!
Minecraft
If you havenโt built your entire fictional city in Minecraft instead of writing, why not? Itโs fun.
The Sims
This one is dual purpose because you can not only create your characters in Create a Sim, but you can design their houses. If you really want to go for it, you can bulldoze all the lots in your town and build your world from scratch.
For checking grammar:
Grammar Girl
Easy to follow definitions and examples, and if you learn better by listening, every article comes with a podcast to follow along with instead.
Grammar Monster
This one is my favourite for checking grammar rules because thereโs tons of examples in graphics that helps for any situation.
Reedsy
Among other things, reedsy can connect you to professional editors within your budget.
For writing advice:
One Stop for Writers
This one was recommended from my discord channel and has all sorts of tutorials and resources for the writing craft.
My Blog Directory
Another shameless plug, but if you need writing advice on something specific, you can search through my directory to see if itโs there. If it isnโt, you can always send me an ask about it!
For an alternative to Google Docs:
Ellipsus
Think google docs but without AI. Yay!
(will update this list with any more suggestions or resources I discover ๐)
A great resource
THERE HE IS!!!

Holy fuck. Thank you lord.
I you Lewis but damnโฆhow on earth can I recreate some of your outfits for fun if you have on clothing that is thousands $$$
I AM NOT TRYING TO HATE!!! And hey I think it is a brand deal or something, idk. I just found it funny cause I saw the post and wanted to recreate some of the outfits and wanted to see were there from and so when I saw the Dior logo I went oh okay I can easily look this up (also I was shocked cause I forgot Dior is not just a makeup brand๐ ) and so I went into the men section and scrolled until I saw the prices and was like โdang thatโs a lot, well I am sure that Lewisโs one isnโt that much-โ
Boy was I hit in the face.๐คฆโโ๏ธ more so by my own hand hitting me, cause of course a big brand like Dior is going to have prices that go into the thousands.
Dang this wasnโt meant to turn into this big talking or I guess rant, I just wanted to talk about this cause I donโt know if anyone else likes to recreate certain celebrities or characters outfits for fun sometimes, honestly just wanted to get some of the outfits cause I am getting a new wardrobe for spring and summer time and wanted ideas and seeing the Lewis photos, I actually not only loved him in the photos and clothing, but also loved the clothing.
Anyway, sorry for the long rant. I hope all that reads this have a wonderful morning/day/evening/night wherever you are in the world!!!๐ค

I feel so insane about ai. I've had face-to-face conversations with people who use it for therapy, who use it to calculate the safety of pill interactions, who use it for all their emails and grant applications and legal documents and academic papers and finance sheets and for every single question they have about the world, and if you tell them about the ecological costs they just laugh and say "I guess I've used a lot of water." and I've been in multiple gatherings of 10+ people where I'm THE ONLY PERSON who doesn't use chatgpt. it's turning me into a ranting raving pariah, because how don't you people see??? why don't you understand??????? this bullshit didn't exist five years ago, you absolutely do not need it, and it is destroying everything
Itโs everywhere now, even in schools. Had class and they have an AI assistant on zoom to take notes of what was said. Just record the fucking lecture and put it up, you donโt need AI to do this shit for you.
They also started pushing their own version of an AI assistant to help you study for classes. I took a year break before going into this program and the fact that itโs changed this drastically is BONKERS to me and its basically saying โoh itโs okay to use itโฆbut no no you canโt use it for assignments,โ.
Donโt even get me started on the amount of shit I got from my group members when I asked them if they used ChatGPT to help with any of their contributions and snapped when they said yes (I took the entire project and redid it).
FUCK AI.
every version, every type, every kind.
die die die
Shoot it.
i really try to keep things quiet and drama free, so i apologize to those of you who donโt want to see this.
but this person is right. the way people continue to enable that blog is shameful. itโs cesspool of negativity, bitterness, and disrespect. yes, people are allowed to have their own opinions, but itโs more than just opinion at this point. itโs hatefulness, itโs vitriol, itโs unhinged and inappropriate. the world is quite literally in flames around us. why would you want to add more negativity to it at all? i wish more people would report and block that blog rather than engaging with it. i donโt care if you think โlewis is a public figure, he deserves itโ. actually, no he doesnโt. and neither does his partner. most of it is someone treating their own opinions and assumptions as fact. they spew some pretty asinine narratives, and treat it like itโs gospel. the behavior has gone on for far too long and iโm tired of staying silent about it. itโs high time someone spoke out against it. get mad at me, i donโt care. drama and gossip destroys fandoms, iโve seen it happen many times. and it will also destroy this one if itโs left unchecked.
I Know Iโm opening up a can of worms on this one and I absolutely know itโs going to ruffle feathers butโฆitโs gotta be said.
Iโve had discourse on here about parasocial relationships and fandoms, and the fact itโs gotten this serious should attest to that. Not only are you speaking on someone who you donโt know (and no, just because heโs a public figure doesnโt mean you know him), but youโre bringing his family into it, his partner into it and everyone else who associates with him into it.
Toxicity in fandom is what makes it crash and burn, and itโs also what gives it a bad reputation AND itโs also what makes them fall off.
Point, blank, period.
If you guys donโt agree then thereโs a possibility you are part of the problem and you may need some self reflection, because truly itโs not good for you nor is it good for your mental health.
Edit: and yeah, I know itโs going to fall on deaf ears because theyโre just going to make another blogโฆblah blah blah. I get it. But maybe these words may make people realize that the person that theyโre talking about is an actual human being. Put yourself in their shoes and think about how shitty youโd feel if they started dragging everyone you knew into the spotlight over choices you make as a full fledged ADULT.
i think after the initial theatrical release there should be a special 4d edition of iron lung where the audience gets sprayed with blood throughout the screening
[walks out of the movie theater soaked head to toe in blood] holy shit guys
I could only say โoh my godโ and โholy shit!โ for like a full hour after I watched this, I was shooketh (in a good way)
iron lung directors commentary where markplier is in the top left corner narrating like he's controlling himself in a video game when
so anyway yeah iron lung movie was very good
