Per @spoonstrek
When I was 15 I was very negative. Of course I was, I was 15.
But I noticed I was negative. And I didn't like it. I didn't like the way it felt inside to be me, and to live like me, with all those negative thoughts all the time.
I had read somewhere that you could train yourself to be happier. That you needed to force yourself to think positive thoughts, until it became a habit.
I remember those few months of high school where I used to catch myself mentally complaining about something, and then forcing myself to find something positive to think about the person or situation. Again, and again, and again.
And it worked.
It became easier. And I became lighter. It was just nicer to be me, to live my life, to navigate through my days. I still remember the moment I noticed my life had become brighter.
And decades later, it still works. The muscle is still there. Now I know the word is neuroplasticity.
But at the time, it was just a 15 years old girl who was tired to be in the dark all the time, so she made light in her own brain.
what’s the rush?
mountain lion vs. house kitten ass screams 😭
Ok, who turned Suho and Si-eun into cats??

Your skill level is unquestionable but listen.
I love him.
me also. as well.
This is the COOLEST thing I’ve seen in AGES. You both completely made my entire week.
there's always some bullshit happening on reddit
writing tip: put words on page. hope this helps. i will not be taking questions because i have not done this
What was that race. Omg. Like Lewis and Max Podium will I say that was great? Yes. Oh absolutely. But George and the fcking shit that was for him??? Merc needs to PACK IT UP like WTF GUYS???!! Also people need to grow the hell up and stop using it as a reason to blatantly hate on Kimi like did George deserve that win, yes he most certainly did but it is not an excuse to be posting death threat level hate! There never is an excuse for that!! But I am raging with what is happening with Russell cuz it’s just looking pathetic on Merc’s side at this point and he sounded so dejected in the interview like why does the universe seem to hate him?? Also have to admit the 2019 rookie group all DNFing was slightly hysterical like we get crumbs but at what cost?? Btw very happy for Franco that was well deserved and a great moment. McLaren also need to get going like reigning Constructor’s Champion who? I ain’t seeing it. Anyway. This has been an emotional rollercoaster for a weekend.
reblog if you love ao3 exactly how it is and you don’t want it to “update” or change in any way♡
ao3 is not changing anything by the way! some people just want them to change for some reason. my guess is that these people just don't understand how the site works and refuse to actually learn how it works, so they blame the site because it's easier for them that way.
Please stay the same forever you absolute utter perfection 🫶🏽🫶🏽
shan’t post the context because i don’t want to introduce discourse into this particular enclosure but i can’t stand this shit fr it somehow never gets less annoying to me. shipping characters and thinking about the #themes are not mutually exclusive activities; you just have an unexamined knee-jerk disdain for people who like to think about romance in fiction
“you’re ignoring that the story is about friendship and connection and trust!” yeah those are concepts that famously cannot coexist with romance whatsoever. not like those are any of the exact components that make romance hit or anything…
but if you like romance (which as we all know is inherently shlocky, shallow, and trite as a genre) then that's a clear sign that you can't use your brain or have Deep Meaningful Connections with Works because you are Stupid for liking such a Frivolous Thing as Romance. also the fact that romance as a genre is inextricably associated with women and femininity means Nothing At All. I am very smart
"take off your shipping lenses" is directed at a specific type of viewer too. It's not said to casual viewers and entertainment publications that point at a male and female lead and ask "will they? won't they? when will they just confess their feelings?" It's rarely about heterosexual romance. It's more often targeted at (frequently queer) fans who are interested in transformative fan works featuring queer characters in queer relationships. That is the type of audience interaction that is the subject of posts like the drowned one above.
I remember back in 2009 when I first started writing fanfiction. I made a post on a forum for that fandom stating that I wanted to start writing and that I think that these two (male) characters would be interesting in a relationship together. It was promptly shot down. Someone asked if I was drunk, asserted that the lead is "for the ladies," and stressed repeatedly that he was "not GAY" (conceding that the other character, who they didn't like or care about, could be gay as long as the lead was left out of it). Homophobia in the aughts was more "acceptably" explicit than it is now; in fact, I was new to fandom but I already knew that queer stories were often targeted by flame wars (barrages of negative comments). I remember showing the comment to a more fandom-experienced friend and asking her if it was a flame or if I really didn't understand the source and this person was giving me reasonable character advice but in a mean way. I had spent such a long time reviewing the canon so I could get the characterization right and this person suggested I was fundamentally wrong, which was really worrying to me. My friend read the comment and immediately told me that I was being flamed and I should write what I want.
It has been years and I don't even know if that comment still exists out there, but I remember it so clearly. And I remember the stories and (what became) years of writing and friendships and engagement in fan culture that it tried to shoot down all because this person saw queerness as a sort of corruption of the text and the sanctity of its characters. Forums and the term "flame wars" have largely disappeared, but the queerphobia that tries to discourage queer narratives still exists. And I see that commenter in every single post that asserts that a critical reading of a text and a queer reading of a text are mutually exclusive. That assertion is queerphobic. Full stop. We need to start loudly acknowledging it as such. And we need to acknowledge the other prejudices at work when the same rhetoric targets other marginalized groups/relationships.
Writing taught me that every person is the hero of a story where their choices make complete sense. every villain i've ever written believed they were right. every side character had somewhere else to be. the moment i started writing people that way i stopped being as confused by real ones. people are not inconsistent. they are consistent with a logic you haven't found yet. if you're confused by someone just ask what story they think they're in.
lady gaga was right. stop telephoning me.
you know a fic is good when it has this
