Potterhead through and through. FanFiction writer: The May Waters. I'm apart of so many fandoms I've lost count-which is a good thing. I'm a chronic James and Lily shipper as well as a Ginny and Harry, and Fred and Hermione shipper. I love to just be who I am, I am positively American with a litle British which likes to burst forth in the most random of moments. I have a puppy named Cinnamon and I love him. If you have any questions just inbox me and I'll answer them. I'll even write one-shots for you if you have an idea!

How to advertise fanfic on tumblr to get people to read it...

[dead-0n-main-deactivated2021101]

A comic about controlling your symptoms and trying to get other people to understand why it’s so hard to do so, in goo form

This hit me much harder than anticipated. I feel it very deeply. Thank you for drawing it.

[aleiksander-the-lame-blog]

For any d/Deaf people that can’t hear it, they put the Bee Gee’s “Stayin’ Alive” over the video and it is hilarious.

S-sir? Sir, what are you-

Sir, are you-

Sir, please stop.

Sir

Are you okay?

everything about this is fucking hilarious. i’m sorry, random pompeii man, but your death was some looney tunes bullshit and the framing of this photograph isn’t helping.

harry: so if neither can live while the other survives

harry: surely one will live if the other dies

harry: therefore i am pretty sure that i am immortal now

ginny: harry go to bed

This won’t make your blog look ugly. How could you not reblog this? REBLOGGING THIS COULD SAVE A LIFE!!!

[recycled-soul-deactivated201401]

This goes for assholes, too, guys. I know a couple who went tubing once, and they had to re-air their tubes, but the guy thought it would be funny to stick the tip of the air compressor up to her bikini trunks, the air ruptured something inside her and she died within thirty minutes.

[riskpig]

WHAT?

[endangeredslug-deactivated20170]

The thing about this? It’s in every pregnancy book I’ve read.

[riskpig]

WHAT?????

[thegrimmlovely]

Why is it in pregnancy books but not sex ed books?

[stupidnoobofficial]

PSA

theres a new product by verzion called “hum” that allows your parents to track your car and places you go, if your parents are controlling like mine please check under your steering wheel to make sure that they havent installed this

[selfcarereminders]

here is what it looks like installed:

you can read more about it here, and here- this excerpt sums up what information Hum will send: 

“a car’s owner will be able to get notified on their phone when the vehicle leaves a pre-determined area or drives faster than a set speed… [Hum] will enable location tracking and a driving log, which measures travel times, engine idle times, and average speeds.” 

[misangremellama]

People in abusive relationships, please check your cars.

[misangremellama]

DO NOT TRY TO UNPLUG IT BY YOURSELF!

[tassiekitty]

To add to this nightmare, I’ve just heard of a thing called ForceField where people get to monitor and block internet sites that you’re going on if they don’t approve.

It tells the user what sites/apps you’re going on, for how long you’re on them, and WHERE YOU ARE ON AN UPDATING MAP.

So you know if you’re in an abusive household and use sites like tumblr to escape and talk to friends, you could be cut off from that.

They say “it’s not spyware” but it sure sounds controlling and creepy to me.

God. Fuck. That’s scary.

[everywitchway-deactivated201905]

Life 360 is another tracker. My parents have used it on me, not allowing me to delete it from my phone, and sometimes even demanding selfies to prove I was where the map said. (As if I’d go anywhere without my phone)

[beerune]

SpectorPro is another one. Afaik it can’t track location, but it takes screenshots roughly every 20sec to allow the installer to watch a video of your computer activity. It also tracks all keystrokes, so passwords aren’t safe, and records any website you visit + the duration. It’s incredibly creepy and a huge violation of privacy, and was one of the cornerstones of my abuse as a kid.

[sugarseros-deactivated20221026]

even if you’re not in an abusive relationship/family, please spread this because you might have just saved someone’s life

[lily-orchard]

Bad idea for a Romantic Comedy The Chief of Police is married to a Mob Boss, and they have to keep “just failing” to catch each other. When one of them hits the other in a shootout, it’s followed with “Oh I’m never going to hear the end of this…”

“So how was your day at work?” “YOU FUCKING SHOT ME! THAT WAS MY DAY AT WORK!”

[sirhate]

We clearly have different definitions of bad.

KuroBas Speed Drawing: 子猫の世代 (Koneko no Sedai—Generation of Kittens) [キセキの世代]

 I decided to watch Kuroko no Basuke (黒子のバスケ) for the third time around and dived back into the world that I love. It’s probably my second favorite anime of all time. This is the artwork I created for the anime despite that the fandom is pretty much dead. RIP KuroBas Fandom.

 Apologies for my terrible Japanese writing skills.

 Types of Cats:

黒子 テツヤ/Kuroko Tetsuya: Singapura

青峰 大輝/Aomine Daiki: Russian Blue (get it? I crack myself up)

緑間 真太郎/Midorima Shintarō: Ragdoll

黄瀬 涼太/Kise Ryōta: Egyptian Mau

紫原 敦/Murasakibara Atsushi: Maine Coon (they’re supposed to be the largest housecat, so…)

赤司 征十郎/Akashi Seijūrō: Abyssinian

火神 大我/Kagami Taiga: Toyger (it’s a pun and a real cat—it’s the best thing ever!)

 Created using Procreate on iPad 2018 with the Apple Pencil.

 Inspiration for this art from: https://i.pinimg.com/736x/0e/d3/7b/0ed37bf59490e57a8d2a303f33dab39b--kitty-funny-things.jpg

The author of that piece labeled it “Kiseki no Kitties” which is Kitties of Miracles if translated and I wanted it to be Generation of Kittens. Despite the wonderful alliteration. Lol I really love their artwork and it’s fantastic, better than mine honestly. I wanted to try my hand at creating my idea of the 子猫の世代/Koneko no Sedai (Generation of Kittens). Hopefully they are still cute and I had fun working on this piece for far longer than I should’ve.

 There’s something really entertaining to me about having Aomine and Kise hanging all over Kuroko. Allow me a moment to brag about Murasakibara’s eyes too. They are amazing and I’m absolutely entranced every time I look at how I colored them. UGH.

 If you’ve read all this, let me know in the comments if you want an 無冠の五将/Uncrowned Kings + Himuro Tatsuya version of cats. Suggestions welcome.

Pet Peeve Rant

I love writing, but I love editing more. I want to go into the editing field. I’ve spent my years at college learning how to write better. I have to heavily edit my own manuscripts because they’re riddled with simple errors. I know my writing is NOT flawless.

What really gets my goat is when I’m reading a FanFic on any site and the author directly has a note that says: “Hey criticism welcome” and so I start by telling them that I love their writing style and that the plot is good, but then I give a little bit of criticism about how they could make scenes cleaner and give a little more description about something and then they flip out. Often times the writer personally attacks the person giving them the criticism as though they are the best writer in the world and “of course the second party doesn’t know what they’re talking about.”

If you don’t want criticism, don’t ask for it. I get that it’s FanFiction and we’re not expecting the best quality going in, but if you wanna be a writer outside of FanFiction you’re need to be able to pick up on necessary skills. An actual editor is ruthless.

I love getting criticism from others because it allow me to think about my writing choices and realize that to an outside audience, what I’ve written does nothing for them.

I’m just really annoyed by this lately. Especially since I’m in a Writing Fiction class for my last semester at Uni and it seems like no one is paying any attention to other student’s advice. A lot of people have had the same complaints as me in pieces and the author disregards it.

If one person is confused in a smaller group you can sure as hell bet that there will be at least 100 other people in the world that have the same issue. Granted you don’t have to take every bit of advice because you may be trying to achieve something rhetorical, but if that doesn’t come off clear enough you need to make it more obvious.

Learn to take some criticism and don’t lash out at people when you’re the person that asked for it in the first place.

I just. UGH. Okay feelings done.

So I’m on a trip with my robotics team and there’s only two “girls” (me, an enby, and a cis girl), so we get our own beds in our own room, but the guys are rooming four to a room, but there’s only two beds in each room. Which means that two guys are sleeping on the floor every night.

I’m not joking. They were literally arguing over who’s sleeping on the floor tonight (apparently they plan on rotating).

And I asked them “why don’t you just share a bed?” And they all gave me the same answer:

“No, that’s weird! That’d be gay!”

And I just looked at them and I decided to break the bad news to them

“If lying next to another guy makes you wanna suck dick, you already wanted to suck dick.”

This is the best thing I’ve ever read in my life.

[kesus-deactivated20180911]

Why in the literal fuck do social media designers think we want to see posts out of chronological order……what real human person on the planet earth wants to see that…..I’m so tired

[colemckenzies]

you can make nearly any object into a good insult if you put ‘you absolute’ in front of it

example: you absolute coat hanger

[ggiornojo]

as well u can just add ‘ed’ to any object and it’s sounds like you were really drunk

example: i was absolutely coat hangered last night

[colemckenzies]

#i was gazeboed mate #i was absolutely baubled

[animatedamerican]

Meanwhile, “utter” works for the first (e.g., “you utter floorboard”) but somehow “utterly” doesn’t seem to work as well for the second (“I was utterly floorboarded”).

[nentuaby]

Utterly doesn’t work for drunk because it’s the affix for turning random objects into terms for *shocked*, obviously.

[animatedamerican]

… huh.  I thought that might just be the similarity to “floored”, and yet “I was utterly coat hangered” does seem to convey something similar.

I have to tell you, I am utterly sandwiched at this discovery.

[thepioden]

Completely makes the phrase mean “super tired”.

“God, it’s been a long week, I am completely coat-hangered.”

[dragoon811]

Yesterday I went to buy some yarn and so you know how annoying it is when fucking people put those stupid bullshit “don’t use this, wool is murder” PETA stickers on the label?

First of all, stop defacing stock in someone’s store. You’re not clever or saving the planet or anything. You’re making it hard for customers to shop and see the info they need on the label (yardage, weight, dye lot)… You’re making employees spend hours peeling the damn things off, and in some cases, you’re causing damage to the label and or yarn itself. That means loss to the company, which affects employees who probably make minimum wage, you shit bags. You want to make change happen? Contact corporate, you fuckhead. That’s where decisions are made.

Second of all, wool is not murder. Are you fucking stupid? (Obviously the answer is yes). It’s a fucking haircut for a sheep. They’ve been domesticated so long that if we don’t sheer them, it’s bad. Yes, some sheep don’t live in ideal conditions. Got a problem with that? Going to a yarn store and putting stickers on things isn’t going to change it or the minds of customers. For fuck’s sake, you absolute cockwomble, go to the yarn companies. Make them use wool providers that use humane conditions for their yarn, like A LOT OF YARN COMPANIES DO.

And third of all.

You. You precious, empty-headed little shitnugget. You complete and total sawdust-for-brains.

You put your fucking stickers all over acrylic yarn.

There’s no fucking wool in there. It’s all synthetic fiber. Basically, it’s plastic.

You fucking dumbass.

[a-boros-named-seamus]

I connect with this post on a spiritual level

[pedeka]

Most decent adhesives are made with ingredients derived from bone, hooves or milk. The stickers are more harmful to animals than the yarn.
