you should get a second evening for reading fan fiction. And you should get an extra day in the week to do arts and crafts.

When I was younger I used to be part of the “only-reads-complete-fics crowd” but as I’m getting older I’m realizing how powerful it can be to have consistent things to look forward to…

[insanitysilver]

All the ppl in the tags laughing abt how fic updates aren’t consistent are cowards. I aim to be subbed to at least 365 fics. One for each day of the year. And that’s just my starting point. Your inbox? Empty. Barren. Fallow. Mine? Bountiful. Overflowing. A cornucopia of ripe treats awaiting my tender consumption. I wade through honey-rich excess while you starve of your own volition.

[hrfiction]

“I wade through honey-rich excess while you starve of your own volition”. 

This line is the sexiest way to say “You fucked up” that I have ever read. I have to start using this in my life when pointing out the follies of others.

[yaketysmax]

I love to read fics in progress! I’m getting my fics chapter by chapter like some jaunty Victorian type subscribed to Dickens in the newspaper. I’m cheerleading the author on and supporting by leaving deranged excited comments in the comments section. (a story? for free? for me??!! THANK YOU) We’re all having a great time! We’re wailing and gnashing our teefs in the comments when the diabolical angst hits. The jokes! the oooooooooooooooooo s when things are soft or spicy! It’s a community thing! it’s very fun. The chef is cooking a banquet for us and we are screeching along appreciatively.

♥ ♥ 📓 ♥ ♥ ԅ (👁 ᴗ 👁ԅ) [esteemed fanfic author] have a new chapter

(づᴗ _ᴗ)づ♥️♥️ !!! ♥️♥️ omg thank u

♥ ♥ 📓 ♥ ♥ ԅ (ꈍ ᴗ ꈍԅ) wait till that diabolical angst hits ooooooo

ദ്ദി ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ ) []through wails and gnashing of teefs] ooooooooooo fuckin yes hurts so good

[ayrki]

When you experience the rush of seeing a notification from AO3 or ff.net or wherever else that the fic that looked abandoned for the last ten years just got a 50k update, you understand.

You’re investing. Who knows which will payoff, but some will, and you will remember that feeling for years.

i should've locked in when i was thirteen

[sapphoshands]

among the plurb things i have recently caught up on was the miriam shor interview where she says she and rhea talked about carol and helen's backstory and decided helen was carol's manager first and they fell in love after and ?!?!?! losing my mind about it a bit.

it complicates the timelines... like, we know they've been together since at least 2008; are we assuming wycaro 1 was out and a hit before then, but carol's only just touring with wycaro 4? i have been mentally assessing her against diana gabaldon* - four books in ten years and then five books in twenty years (plus tv, novellas, etc) - and so i'm wondering if carol had written something before wycaro but wycaro was her first big hit, like martha wells and murderbot.

but regardless. regardless! i love the idea that helen was there because she had to be and saw the worst of carol (because you know she would have been theeeee grumpiest about everything to do with fans and tours and being managed) and then fell in love with her and chose to stay. obsessed about it. i love them.

* i realise this gets exponentially funnier every time rhea seehorn demonstrates that she totally doesn't mind that karolina wydra and caitríona balfe are besties

The above is a video shared by smrchildsadness on Twitter, showing a person participating in a pride parade exchanging a pride flag with a person standing on his (am using his pronoun based on the TikToks/Tweets of what happened) doorway who had a Portuguese flag. There are sounds of cheers and crying and the two people hug each other as they exchange the flags. The man at the doorway then waved kisses to the crowd within the pride parade.

The Tweet says: "NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HE WAS WAVING THE PORTUGUESE FLAG BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HAVE A PRIDE FLAG AND THEY TRADED FLAGS AND HE'S SO EMOTIONAL TO GET HIS OWN PRIDE FLAG I'M EMOTIONALLY RUINED"

For context, apparently they were worried that maybe he's a nationalist because he was waving the Portuguese flag and some nationalists opposing the pride march were waving that flag. But upon interacting with him, it turns out he didn't have have a pride flag and he wanted to wave *a* flag in support of the pride march. So they had an exchange and now he has his own pride flag 😭🥹.

The image above is a Tweet by kunwara_ladkaa that says "I'm crying so much right now (Image taken by Manuel Fernando Araújo/Lusa)". The image shows the same man from the pride parade crying as he hugs his new pride flag.

The above image is a Tweet by dudz_zZzz that says "ainda não parei de pensar nele," which according to Google translate from Portuguese to English is "I still haven't stopped thinking about him." The image is a drawing of the person from the pride parade, crying as he hugs his new pride flag.

His name is António Fernandes, and you can find the original article where he spoke about this event here

This elderly gentleman lives alone in Porto, when he saw the march coming up his street all he knew was he wanted to participate, so he ran home to get the only flag he had to wave as they passed by, when they did he was overcome with emotion and called over one of the activists, they hugged and exchanged flags, he felt so overwhelmed that he could only hold it and cry.

This isn't a story about a closeted elderly man, António lives and has been living alone for many years now and that little moment made him feel included in something for the first time in many years.

Says the article:

"The act was "of support”, guarantees the man, especially because “each one is as they are and we are all the same”. “The joy I felt at this moment. I cried,” he recalled, still emotional when looking at the photograph offered to him during this report.

However, even though it reached thousands of people, the moment screams a feeling of belonging, of joy and also a portrait of loneliness as a consequence of aging.

Behind that door, whose image spread across the country, António is the portrait of a condition that affects many others like him.  He lives alone, but the walls of his home are full of memories of a life shared and full of love. “Memories I preserve,” he stresses.

He's not gay, nor does he need to be to support and respect the cause.

“We all have the same color blood. We are all the same.”

Still with an emotional look glued to the photograph that immortalized his gesture at the march, António remembers: “I felt embraced by all of them”. After a sigh, he says: “See this photo? I want to take it to my coffin.”
