this trend of shitting on peer-reviewed academic studies in favor of tweeting “we already knew this was happening” is so soul-crushing. not to be an elitist cunt, but we have got to open the schools again. people genuinely seem to have forgotten that their personal lived experience isn’t indicative of the larger population, AND IF IT IS…… then you need researchers to support these assertions from a relevant data pool instead of a blog post from 2013 💀
Fuck hostile architecture, I want unhostile architecture. I want benches to be designed to be as easy as possible to sleep on. I want little places for pigeons to nest to be purposefully put on buildings. I want people designing public spaces to think about what they'd be like to skateboard on. I want "Please loiter" signs. I want people to be kind. I want...

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
things that always make me happy: serial commenters. there are three types
1) reading a longfic chapter by chapter, leaving an increasingly emotional comment on every chapter, descends into keysmashes near the end: outstanding
2) read one fic by accident, clicked the author name, now working steadily through the backlog and commenting on everything, I wake up to an AO3 inbox full of enthusiasm: precious beyond words
3) the longterm serial commenter whose comment begins with I don’t even know this fandom but because they have followed me from somewhere else: stunning. humbling. magical.
these are all *chef’s kiss* and I want to add one more: 4) left a comment a while ago, comes back and leaves another comment on the same fic, telling you that they’re coming back to reread the fic: angels. blessings. lifesavers.
I owe all 4 my actual life

Please keep interacting with this post because when I come to tumblr to procrastinate, this shows up again in my notifications and guilts me into writing again
I struggle with Y/N fics so I been reading it as Yelena, and it has improved my enjoyment significantly.
So proud of AO3 for coming out <3

Am I the only one that looks for signs of life if their favorite fic hasn't been updated in 6+ months?
ie: "Hmm, they bookmarked this fic that was first posted in June of 2025, so they are likely still alive and there is still hope for the fic I'm obsessed over that they haven't updated since 2024."
Remember, it is important to murder dictators democratically.

why does this have 32k notes? it’s just a picture of a knife in a ranch bottle, is there some unspoken joke that 32 thousand people share? what is going on here, i dont get it. it’s just a fucking picture of a knife in a ranch bottle. is there some spiritual connection people have to this picture? is there some ominous and mystical reasoning that this has 32 thousand notes? do people reblog this because it makes them look like some indie blogger? or is there just something funny to this? someone please explain
no one tell him
everyone rejoice, Ao3 is back
The best time.

Modern Poverty in NYC
So I read a lot of Peter Parker fanfiction, and he is canonically broke. Worse if he loses his support system. But the way that people signify poverty isn't really accurate as someone who had lived in nyc. Here are some things commonly written wrong:
No heat in the winter.
So heat is normally not regulated by the unit. In most older buildings the entire building is radiator heated and from October to April that shit is on and HOT! Now slum lords do exist, and there might be a few days here and there if the landlord doesn't care where a building doesn't have heat. But normally maintenance lives in the building they work on and that means they don't have heat either. And New Yorkers are resourceful people and best believe that they will not let their kids, grandparents, family, etc. sit in the cold for too long. The heat will be fixed one way or another. So as long as he has any type of shelter he is warm. And with his skills Pete can break into any apartment that's empty for a night or even a stairwell. So the image of him freezing due to poverty is wrong.
No access to food.
So unless Peter is too proud to ask for help, there is food available. Not only would the people he helps offer him food, food offering is a huge love language of multiple cultures especially among the poor, but there are so many food banks. Literally hundreds of food banks, he could hit up multiple and meet his caloric needs. Going hungry would be a matter of pride, no house, very possible, no food, not realistic.
He is dirty.
The visibly homeless are normally not JUST homeless. As someone who has been homeless, more than once, looking homeless normally means another health condition on top of homelessness. There are so many gyms for public showers, you can get toiletries form the dollar store, and those same food banks will often have self care items as well. So if Peter can access an empty unit or a gym, which we totally think he can, he will be able to clean himself. He might not have alot of clothes but think of how many you would need on a carry on, he could carry a backpack and no one would know the difference. Also, there are laundromats everywhere. For pretty cheap, cleanliness would be possible.
The actual weight of poverty.
A lot of it is the cost of housing and mental. For the poor, 50 or even 60% of their income could go to rent. Saving is impossible. Small luxuries like phones or clothes are often cheap in comparison. You are often moving from one crisis to the next without any safety net. You get sick, so you miss work, so you are late on rent. Or you have to decide on meds or a bus pass, and everything is slower or harder. A lot of times, you can do everything right and still get screwed over by things outside of your control. The stress, the fear, is constant. And you are constantly being told it's your fault for not being good enough. Cook from home from scratch to save money, but hours at multiple jobs and long commutes leave you exhausted. You're supposed to be this perfect poor person, but it's unrealistic.
In conclusion:
Real poverty is exhausting and feels hopeless, but it isn't normally cold and hungry. Not in the city for a super hero anyhow.
