I’ve also known cats to do this they’re just socially awkward so it can be hard to tell. I only see it cuz - same.

[apollos-boyfriend]

something they don’t tell you about being autistic is that every character you write WILL end up autistic/autistic-coded whether you like it or not

[apollos-boyfriend]

same goes for being aromantic/asexual. every character WILL come out at least a little aspec

[rhaxgasm]

GOOD.

UBI needs to happen. via antiwork

[hasufin]

I think most importantly, it would give us the leverage to say “no”. To walk away from bad jobs and abusive managers. To refuse to work in unsafe environments. To demand better pay.

To demand better, because the options are no longer “suck it up” or “die”.

[earhartsease]

and that’s why there’s so much resistance to implementing it - capitalism wants workers who don’t have a choice

Best trick I ever picked up. Seriously.

[catastrophe-jones]

I have also learned this is great for [PICK A COOL NAME FOR A SHIP] and [LOOK UP THE FACTS ABOUT OXYGEN LEVELS] and [WHAT’S THE WORD] and [DOUBLECHECK CHARACTER’S EYE COLOR] and ALL KINDS OF THINGS.

Anything that isn’t critical in the moment, and could be filled in later while I’m currently trying to burn through writing pages that will be lost if I don’t get them out right now? Brackets.

[betweentimeand42]

This is seriously the best advice, and it really helps put it into perspective that the first draft is just that- a draft. There’s no reason to agonize over a particularly tricky bit of writing when you could just leave it in brackets and skip to the good parts, the parts you’ve visualized. I also use brackets for [fact-check this], [use a stronger verb], [is this in character?] and other notes as I write, just so I don’t forget what I want to work on when I go back and edit. 

[petermorwood]

Note the good sense of [brackets] not (parentheses).

Parentheses AKA round brackets can appear in fiction, usually as an afterthought in a character's thoughts or narration (as I saw them used just recently), but square brackets hardly ever do.

[rhaxgasm]

It’s amazing advice and I now for the first time ever have something like an actual draft and something that could also look like a timeline (if you squint). THIS IS BEFORE IVE WRITTEN ANYTHING PROPERLY WTF ISHAPPENIN’.

Unheard of!

[jaded-stag]

I keep seeing people making fun of using growled, hissed, roared, snarled etc in writing and it’s like.

have you never heard someone speak with the gravel in their voice when they get angry? Because that’s what a growl is.

Have you never heard someone sharply whisper something through the thin space of their teeth? Or when your mother sharply told you to stop it in public as a kid when you were acting up/being too loud? Because that’s what a hiss is.

Have you never heard a man get so blackout angry that their voice BOOMS through the house? Because that’s what a roar is.

Have you never seen someone bare their teeth while talking to accentuate their frustration or anger while speaking with a vicious tone? Because that’s what snarling is.

It’s not meant to be a literal animal noise. For the love of god, not every description is literal. I get some people are genuinely confused, but also some of these people are genuinely unimaginative as fuck.

[pastafossa]

This for real. Alllllllll of this. All of these sounds are the way different people speak based on their emotions. A snarl is not going GRAWR like a dog. It's so furious their teeth are bared, every syllable sharp and cutting and loud. A growl is lower, the words dangerously rough and hot, a warning.

It's the same with softer sounds. A purr is that low, gravelly mmmmm noise of pleasure, or words warm and smooth as melted chocolate. When someone chirps, it's bright and happy and quick, the syllables a little clipped in excitement. Panting is not tongue lolling like a dog; it's a heaving chest and words that are half-breath.

This is what language, what storytelling IS. It's symbolic, it's imagination, it's metaphor and analogy and simile. Strip that away and all you have is textbook descriptions, which are of course useful when reading actual textbooks, but far less entertaining when reading a goddamn fictional story.

[inspectorlyfra]

dating-type app but instead of matching for romance it connects writers/artists+ who don't want to do research with autistic people with the appropriate special interest

[inspectorlyfra]

the creators get the needed information without needing to filter out filler and translate technical jargon, and the autistic person gets someone who's willing to listen to their infodumps. what is there to lose

[wastelandhell]

I understand Danse simps now that I’ve met him in-game.

At first I didn't think I'd like Danse because I thought he was just there to fill the "tough soldier guy" niche. Then I actually did a BoS run and realized he was a) autistic and b) literally this:

and now I would die for him

[rhaxgasm]

That’s so spot on to my experience ahaha. Expression is perfect

[rhaxgasm]

Random thought; what if - in all the infinite possibilities when the universe was REAL borked - Engie ended up on the Captain’s side of some of the situations when they lost him. Maybe not necessarily as Captain (but also) but more the Captain becoming the focus and the perspective changing. His perspective but meeting the Captain equivalent of Hee Hoo? Murder Mark? Bomb disposal too tbh because that’s my fav new ego.

Thought of this while writing tags - A DATE with THE CAPTAIN

[iswmperson]

The existence of In Space With Mack implies A Heist With Mack is also a thing, which also implies Mack TV exists-

[rhaxgasm]

Ohhhhhh…. I cannot even fathom the horrors that would be a WharfMack or DarkMack for that matter. I love the idea of PirateCaptain Mack and PirateCaptain Captain; Captain squared. Ahaha Mack equivalent to Illinois?

[iswmperson]

I mean, WarfPat exists, DarkPat, etc, @insane4fandoms drew someone's interpretation of a mack-style Illinois ego, Pennsylvania-

[wouldntyou-liketoknow]

That someone is me! 

You can find Penn and the other EgoPats I’ve made here!

[rhaxgasm]

Thanks for sharing! Will have a goosie at them soon as I can settle down and enjoy lol

[elijahdnorth]

While everyone else is going crazy over "Don't" I'm over here sobbing and going crazy over

"Cap'n I'm tired."

[helisinhell]

engie wakes up from their cryosleep and watches the captain get vacuumed into space once the window he made "for the aesthetics" break, and is suddenly thrown into taking charge while trying his hardest not to cry. ok that's enough angst, now lets imagine. the different... captain pornsona. ok, now stop imagining. anyways i love this idea 100000/10

[rhaxgasm]

Oooof. That IS some angst.

Ahaha one of them would just abuse his praise kink and compliment him into oblivion
