Bottled up Questions

What if I said I love you, and you understood what I meant. What if I laid bare my soul and you knew my intent?

What if you say you love me that, of me, you’ll never get rid? What if you caught me as I fell and from you, I never hid?

What happens when I tell you? What changes will I regret? How will we survive this? And will we ever forget…

Maybe you fell second, but What if you fell harder! And what if I trust you? and together, our future, we charter-!

I swear by the sun I love you and I swear I’ll never falter. Will you promise to keep me, even if we skip the altar?

What if some things never change, can you change in my stead? What if I can’t be brave and leave this in my head.

What if I said I love you? What if I kissed you till you were sick? What if I told you everything, despite all the risks…

weird as fuck living in a culture where it's considered more impolite to speak up and defend yourself against someone treating you unfairly than it is for someone to be rude to you in the first place

[tittyinfinity]

older family members, coworkers, customers, and strangers in general can say the most batshit insane things to your face and somehow you're considered to be the "rude" one if you say "hey that wasn't cool of you to say"

As a wheelchair user I'm trying to reframe my language for "being in the way."

"I'm in the way," "I can't fit," and "I can't go there," is becoming "there's not enough space," "the walkway is too narrow," and "that place isn't accessible."

It's a small change, but to me it feels as if I'm redirecting blame from myself to the people that made these places inaccessible in the first place. I don't want people to just think that they're helping me, I want them to think that they're making up for someone else's wrongdoing. I want them to remember every time I've needed help as something someone else caused.

To the people saying this also applies to fat people - you are not derailing! This is true!!!

In 1972, after decades of female pin-ups and centerfolds in magazines like Playboy and Penthouse, Cosmopolitan caused an uproar by featuring Burt Reynolds laying nude on a bear skin rug.

It was one of the first moments in the sexual revolution that fully recognized that women might on occasion be horny, and fully centered on the female gaze.

They just don't make men like that any more. Like with body hair and a fully hydrated, not-ripped body.

There’s no elegant way to express this thought without making anyone mad, but

I think some modern writing suffers from the delusion that a super-hyper-ultra strong version of the character is always the best one, and I think those stories are more boring for it. 

I’ve more and more frequently run into stories where the main characters all go super-saiyan, and it’s treated not as an extreme, but as an obvious attainable and sustainable goal, when (in my humble opinion) it should not be either. 

Not all characters benefit from being their strongest selves. Some characters are good BECAUSE they’re weaker. Some characters are interesting BECAUSE they’re average. Characters becoming the strongest version of themselves is cool sometimes BECAUSE it’s an edge of ability that is neither healthy nor realistic long-term.

If your only conceivable goal as a writer is to make all your characters reach level 100, you’re not writing a story. You’re scripting yourself a bar graph that is going to break the presentation, and overshadow all the other interesting things you can do with the rest of your quantifiers.

a lot of writers try too hard for 'everyman hero' and end up with a generic nobody for a protagonist. those are boring, so boring, like idk how to tell you this but even mediocre high school boys don't want to read about mediocre high school boys

if you want your protag to be relatable, make them a goddamn mess

[failure-artist]

i don’t find blank protagonists relatable. i find someone with goals and interests relatable because even if their goals and interests are completely different from mine i can relate to having them. 

[jumpingjacktrash]

exactly! i like a protagonist with problems and confusion, for the exact same reason. i also have problems and confusion, even if its over different topics.

I don’t think anything quite gets me like ‘grieving character starts wearing something of their dead loved ones,’ particularly if the clothing/jewelry/object/weapon was something that sorta trademarked that other character. It’s like the character is gone but you can still visually see their memory living on through those that loved them. It just hits so hard.

[antigonehappy]

character who is sun-coded but not in the traditional ray-of-sunshine way. character who is sun-coded in the sense that they burn hot and bright and powerful, that they're a raging fury of fire and passion, and that maybe, just maybe, they are destroying themselves as they do so.

In response to Slate's article on the possibility having non-heteromative team in figure skating (particularly, ice dance and pairs), Oniceperspective shared a glimpse of Gabriella Papadakis (FRA) and Madison Hubbell (USA) working on their same-sex program. You can see how they switch the leading figure between them.

You can see them trying out lifts in this video.

did you let me die in your arms in the timeloop

[mockiatoh]

I keep thinking about this post. Did you let me? As in did you not save me? and Did you let me? as in did you allow me the comfort of your embrace at the expense of your own pain, knowing tomorrow I would be back and fine but you’d still be feeling my blood against your skin?

Did you let me die in your arms?

The best ship dynamic is actually just. "I love you and it terrifies me. I'm terrified how much I need you and how much I want you to need me. I'm terrified I'm no good for you and I'm going to hurt you and ruin you and I'm terrified of how I feel when you're around me but I can't bear to push you away completely because I'm terrified to be without you so now we're stuck in limbo and that's terrifying too. I'm terrified that if I lost you now it'd destroy me and I'm terrified that it's too late to do anything about it. I love you. And it's terrifying."
