Don't you love *delusional writers*

A writer who is unhealthily obsessed with Hollow Knight and MCYT (traffic sphere) and has a minor attraction with history, here to share my stories and be stupid without my parents permission. She/Her experimenting with She/They AroAce, Autism and ADHD, TwoAstricts on Ao3

~~Masterpost!!~~

Hi! Finally decided to make a masterpost/intro post for my main blog!

My name is Astricts, my pronouns are She/They, though I'm still gender questioning. I'm AroAce and slightly sex averse (like, not fully, I'm fine with jokes about sex, in fact, I make many sexual jokes, I just don't like it when you get descriptive about it) I'm autistic and have ADHD. I'm also (currently) a minor in high school, so if you're an adult, be warned. I do swear though.

I like digital art, writing fanfic, reading, history and mythology.

My current fandom is MCYT, specifically, Vampires, Life Series, Hermitcraft and Empires, with occasional dips into other SMPs. I also like Hollow Knight, though I'm not as obsessed with it as MCYT.

My music interests are very much basic MCYT fan plus extras, being Crane Wives, ABBA, Sparkbird, Lydia the Bard, AvidMC, fansongs of the media I like, any song about history, Sabaton, Evil Anvil, and some songs by Taylor Swift.

My Ao3 is TwoAstricts

Quick tips for Writing Villains!!

☆ A villain who thinks they're the hero is scarier than one who knows they're evil.

☆ Give them something they love. It makes everything worse.

☆ Their logic should make sense, even if their actions don't.

☆ The best villains don't monologue. They ask questions.

☆ Not every villain needs a tragic backstory. Some people are just hungry for power.

☆ Let them win sometimes. Repeatedly, it raises the stakes.

☆ A villain who is polite is more unsettling than one who screams.

☆ They should change the hero just as much as the hero changes them.

☆ Give them a genuine friendship or loyalty somewhere. It humanizes without excusing.

☆ The scariest thing a villain can do is be right about something.

☆ Not every villain needs to die. Some walk away. Some become allies. Some just... disappear.

☆ A villain with a sense of humor is dangerous because you almost like them.

This was genuinely what it was like growing up in New Agey circles btw, my mum's friends would come round like "So I went out to the woods this weekend and fasted and meditated and I had a vision of the Sacred Stag and all my guardian angels and I asked them how to find love and they said that I need to focus on my own healing first and stop repeating cycles of the past" and then the very next week it'd be like "So I'm back with James again" girl..... the Sacred Stag could not have been more clear....

Canadiens head coach Martin St. Louis wouldn’t be surprised to see an NHL player eventually come out as gay.

“I think forget sports … I think we’re in a society now that people do come out,” he said.

There’s no doubt there have been gay players in the NHL before and that there are some today. But they obviously don’t feel comfortable coming out publicly in a league that still has a well-earned reputation for being an “old boys’ club.”

About 25 years ago, Tom Harrington was a CBC sports reporter and host of the Sports Journal magazine show. He was researching a story about an NHL player who was gay while working with a go-between who ran a support group in Toronto that helped professional and amateur athletes who were gay. Harrington was told there was a “prominent” NHL player who had been thinking about coming out.

During the next year-and-a-half, Harrington said he worked with his go-between trying to convince the NHL player to do an interview, but the player was “extremely reluctant and afraid he’d be exposed.” Harrington tried to arrange a phone interview or a meeting with the player, who asked if his voice could be disguised in a phone call in case Harrington recognized him. Harrington promised the go-between he would never reveal the player’s identity unless he permitted it.

“It was a step closer to the beginning of something, but it was also a window into just how terrified he was, and it said a lot about the culture at the time in professional male sports, where players didn’t feel they could even take the initial step to come out, let alone reveal themselves,” Harrington said in a phone interview Tuesday.

Harrington said the player eventually decided not to come out, saying he was too scared of the impact it would have on his family, hockey career and his life after hockey.

“I remember saying at the time (to the go-between): ‘You know, there are a lot of people who would be very supportive of him. There would be businesses lining up to sponsor him to have him as a spokesperson. I’m telling you, there’s an untapped market for someone like this … the Jackie Robinson of gays in sports.’ But, ultimately, it failed.

“I never knew who the player was and to this day I still don’t know who it was,” added Harrington, who retired last year after almost 44 years at CBC.
