how others feel about your boundaries is not your responsibility

[thyfleshc0nsumed]

Something I heard from a friend a few years ago really changed my understanding of boundaries. A boundary is necessarily has to be something you can enforce.

"Do not call me after 9" is not a boundary. I can't control someone else's actions

"I do not pick up the phone after 9" is a boundary, I can choose if I pick up or not

All computer safety ever for the past 30 odd years: "if you go on the internet — especially if you're under 18 — lie about everything. Lie about your name. Lie about your age. Give as little information away about yourself as you possibly can. Obfuscate, falsify, and omit anything and everything as otherwise They Will Get Your Ass. Actually, avoid it in the first place if you can altogether."

All computer safety(?) since like 2020: "it's imperative we make every 8 year old scan a passport before letting them use their LeapFrog™️. Always-on connectivity required."

the problem with having a The Character that sucks ass is that you can’t even turn to them in times of need. god forbid i find myself asking what The Character would do in my situation because the answer would probably be catastrophically harmful for my everything. can’t rely on them for shit. absolutely abysmal emotional support

sometimes i dont have an active dislike of a ship (i mean. beyond the watering down of their characters to generic yaoi pairing) but then it becomes 97% of the content i see for those characters and its like. Ohhh. okay. i have to boil you

I actually think it's so funny that the way a hormonal IUD works is that it just lies to your uterus and fools it into believing it's pregnant. but instead of a fetus there's just a little plastic doodad in there. I'm pregnant and it's The Contraption.

[transcyberism]

my dumbass uterus: "man this thing has been cooking for like 5 years I bet it's gonna be the most awesome baby of all time"

my IUD: still just a plastic thingamajig

seeing that post that’s been going around about how everyone should brush up on their food safety knowledge even if you think you know what you’re doing, especially if you have chronic tummy troubles. And then seeing people say they store leftovers in their oven. hey I think that post was for you

[sabertoothwalrus]

you misunderstand.

they’re storing cooked food in there while the oven is off. for days

In the spirit of encouraging people to comment on fanfics while also making it easier to do so, I feel obliged to share a browser extension for ao3 that has quite literally revolutionized the comment game for me.

I present to you: the floating ao3 comment box!

From what I've seen, a big problem for many people is that once you reach the comments at the bottom of a fic, your memory of it miraculously disappears. Anything you wanted to say is stuck ten paragraphs ago, and you barely remember what you thought while reading. This fixes that!

I'll give a little explanation on the features and how it works, but if you want to skip all that, here's the link.

The extension is visible as a small blue box in the upper left corner.

(Side note: The green colouring is not from the extension, that's me.)

If you click on it, you open a comment box window at the bottom of your screen but not at the bottom of the fic. I opened my own fic for demonstrative purposes.

The website also gives explanations on how exactly it functions, but I'll summarize regardless.

insert selection -> if you highlight a sentence in the fic it will be added in italics to the comment box

add to comment box -> once you're done writing your comment, you click this button and the entire thing will automatically copied to the ao3 comment box

delete -> self explanatory

on mulitchapter fics, you will be given the option to either add the comment to just the current chapter or the entire fic

The best part? You can simply close the window the same way you opened it and your progress will automatically be saved. So you can open it, comment on a paragraph, and then close it and keep reading without having the box in your face.

Comments are what keep writers going, and as both a writer and a reader, I think it's such an easy way of showing support and enthusiasm.
