Hey yo
Fuck Scott Morrison!
Oh wow he just defunded the peak body representing Indigenous survivors of domestic violence! Fuck Scott Morrison!
He decided to suddenly shove public sector departments together to âmake things more efficientâ by the totally illogical step of combining Art with Transport! That makes no sense! Fuck Scott Morrison!
While NSW burns and Sydneyâs air is unbreathable instead of addressing it he held a press conference to announce his revised religious discrimination bill thatâll make it easier for people to discriminate against LGBTQIA+ people! What an insensitive piece of shit! Fuck Scott Morrison!
Wow! The fires are still devastating the eastern states and so Morrisonâs decided to fuck off on an early overseas holiday with his family so heâll conveniently not be nearby for any questions as to why his government isnât doing more!  Fuck Scott Morrison!
Merry Christmas everyone! Just a reminder that before Morrison was PM he was social services minister where he announced - just before Christmas - that he was cutting millions from homelessness support services. Fuck Scott Morrison!
After resisting calls to compensate hard working firefighters who have lost massive amounts of income from tackling the unprecedentedly massive bushfires, Scott Morrison finally said that we should - only to make the criteria for that compensation really strict so as to make it hard for any of them to even get! Fuck Scott Morrison!
Scott Morrison said we should focus on âresilience and adaptationâ as an excuse for him to continue not having a policy for tackling climate change. Thatâs pretty shitty by itself! But whatâs worse is when he was treasurer in 2017 he stopped funding the National Climate Change Adaptation Research Facility (NCCARF) and the director of NCCARF says âthe capacity to take action on climate change is smaller than it was decades ago.â FUCK SCOTT MORRISON!!
Not only did the government give away a ton of money to marginal seats just before the election in the form of community sports grants to organisations that werenât eligible for it including $50,0000 for a building in Morrisonâs electorate that had already been built - BUT the government also ignored its own drought program criteria so it could give millions to places that werenât eligible. Another bribe to win the election!
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON!!
In response to the pandemic Morrison doubled Newstart - which finally meant welfare recipients could stop skipping meals just to make ends meet. It took a global pandemic for him to consider letting people on benefits live above the poverty line! But itâll all be reverted back down in 6 months - or maybe even less! So he doesnât really care about caring about the poor at all, he just didnât want people who needed temporary assistance to hate him and lose votes! Heâs also decided that the votes of the disabled community donât matter because unlike other forms of support that were doubled - the Disability Support Pension remained low and instead got a one-off payment of $750 instead of a boost. In fact some people had their NDIS support cancelled and are unable to get essentials so Morrison has pointedly ignored vulnerable people and let them suffer!
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON!
Speaking of not giving a shit about people - Morrison excluded international students from any form of support and so now theyâre relying on free meals from foodbanks to survive and some students have gone a week without food. International students inject $32 billion a year into Australiaâs economy and create jobs. But of course the party of climate deniers doesnât give a shit about higher education because they made sure that universities were basically incapable of claiming Jobkeeper for their staff. The more you look, the more people are excluded from support, and the more people suffer because Morrison doesnât actually give a shit about people, he just wants enough people to be tricked into voting for him.
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON!
The Prime Ministerâs Office hand picked a bunch of people from oil and gas companies to form a commission to find a way to grow the economic post-pandemic. They came back and said âgive us lots of subsidies for gas and let us frack.â How blatantly obvious can you get trying to rig the results of a commission to support fossil fuels over renewables?
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON.
Scott Morrison literally said Australia never had slavery. He just outright erased Australiaâs colonial history - Indigenous people were stolen from their lands and community, forced to work, and were exploited and had their wages stolen - even up to the 60s and 70s. What an abhorrent denial and ignorance of Australiaâs racist history.
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON.
Scott Morrison said that welfare was too âgenerousâ now that itâs no longer under the poverty line so itâs an âimpedimentâ for the unemployed to go get jobs (during a recession and a global pandemic??? WHAT JOBS???) Heâs perpetuating the harmful stereotype that poor people are entitled and lazy which is just classist bullshit from his mega-rich ass.
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON!
When a female Minister was directly asked about her experiences with a culture of disrespect and sexism towards women Scott Morrison IMMEDIATELY INTERRUPTED HER and gave a completely pointless and rude addition to the conversation over the usage of the words âbonk ban.â Way to prove how much of a sexist dickhead you are Morrison!
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON!
We are now the LEAST VACCINATED COUNTRY IN THE OECD!!!
Morrison chose to end JobKeeper and drive people on Centrelink payments under the poverty line BEFORE THE VACCINATION ROLLOUT EVEN BEGAN!
AND weâre also dead last on climate action OUT OF THE ENTIRE UN!! So itâs hard to find a country in the entire world with a worst climate action record than us - if that exists!
FUCK SCOTT MORRISON! FUCK! FUCK SCOTT MORRISON!
every day i am percievedâ˘ď¸
There is a reason for this though!
The original tweet summarizes it pretty well. Fanfic tends to be popular among certain types of neurodivergent people (aka people most likely to read excessively as a child, and have burnout as an adult) for the same reasons that we tend to hyperfixateâneurochemical signaling (I hope Iâm using that phrase correctly). What I mean is, for people who are really dependent on changes in dopamine/serotonin/neurotransmitter levels, who have low levels or wonky neural reward systems (perhaps the most common types of neurodivergence)âŚpeople like us rely on dependable external sources of those neurochemicals. In order to function, we spend a lot of our free time trying to level out our brain chemistry using things that can reliably bring us a steady stream of joyful moments (rewards) without costing too much of the mental effort that is already in short supply.Â
significantly:Â the investment of reading has to be balanced with a steady âreturn on investmentââand this return has to start fairly quickly. because again, we donât have a lot of attention/energy to invest on tiring things. we have perpetual âlow batteriesâ in that regard.
that doesnât mean these stories are âsimple,â or that they lack complexity or valueâonly that the reward has to come in short regular intervals, and it has to have a low âupfront cost.â which is why fanfic stories are so perfectly formulated for neurodivergent readersâthey are often beautifully written, but skip a lot of the upfront costs (of introducing new characters, of world-building, of getting the audience emotionally connected to the story elements).
the nature of fanfiction is that the reader has a pre-existing relationship with this world and these characters. thatâcombined with the shorter average length of ficsâmeans that fan fics very quickly start ârewardingâ the reader in a way that traditional fiction struggles to. thatâs not a bad thing! and maybe itâs something more traditionally published writers should be paying attention to.
Fanfic, as a genre, has been uniquely helpful and accessible to many neurodivergent readers who would otherwise struggle to immerse themselves in stories. Iâm glad so many of you have found a way to love and enjoy reading again! The important thing is that you are spending time inside stories you loveâthe way those stories are published or presented to the world is just one detail.

âIâm wearing a 40s Poodle Chubby jacket, 40s pants, 40s bug brooch (bigger the better), and cigarette wrapper folk art prison purse probably from the 70s. My style is inspired by the role of women in the 30s/40s â be it Hollywood glamour, workwear, propaganda in fashion, or DIY vibes. I love and appreciate all eras (contemporary as well) but somehow always incorporate that inspo into a sort of 40s bent. I also get inspiration from anything I see around me â whether a color combination in graffiti or a childâs sticker.â

if you get a chance, how about a drabble on katniss + peeta, joint wingman-ing for gale...?
âDammit Gale, can you just make an attempt to not look so irritated?â Peeta asks him, shaking his head. âYouâre trying to pick up a girl, not scare her off.â
âYeah, because right now you look like a budding serial killer,â Katniss says helpfully, exchanging an amused smile with Peeta over the rim of her beer.
âYou two are a pair of assholes,â Gale grumbles, running a hand through his dark hair. He straightens his collar for the hundredth time and looks around the crowded bar.
âIâve never seen you this worked up overâŚanything, really.â Peeta looks at him in surprise, his blue eyes wide. âItâll be okay, man.â
âSuck it up, buttercup,â Katniss deadpans. She tilts back on her wobbly bar stool and leans into her boyfriend, who moves to stand behind her protectively. âDonât baby him, Peeta. Madge thinks sheâs about to meet a man, not a little girl.â Gale shoots her a wounded glare. âI canât believe I ever wanted to date you.â
âMe neither,â she shrugs, throwing an almond from the bar snack tray in the air before deftly catching it in her mouth. âMy girl,â Peeta smiles down at her and tugs her braid playfully. Gale watches as Katniss wrinkles her nose before accepting the kiss that Peeta tenderly places on her lips. âI want that,â he says suddenly.âWant what?â Peeta asks, distracted by Katnissâ hair. âYou know. The disgusting eye sex, the non-verbal communication bullshit,â he waves a hand in their direction. âI want shared custody of a dog and a white picket fence. I want those things.â âSounds good to me,â Madge says, appearing at Galeâs elbow. âBut can you buy me a drink first? Itâs only polite.â
me in five years when i still donât have my life together:
Plot Appreciation 1/â
You should write a ficlet about Peeta and his valentine stash đ¤â¤ď¸đ
âHere comes your adoring slave,â Johanna said. She tapped her smirking lips with the eraser-end of her pencil, and Katniss had to bite her tongue when she saw that Miss Sarcasm had one that was patterned with hearts and flowers. Â
Instead, she diverted her attention toward the blonde man limping his way toward her cubicle with a bouquet of flowers in his hand and a sheepish look on his handsome face.Â
