what being a ao3 writer is not about: writing sex scenes

what being a ao3 writer really is about: seeing a prompt on tumblr and proceeding to write a multi chapter fic just for that one specific scene

[the2headedcalf-moved]

whenever you have free time, check these out:

articles/essays

the real tragedy of beth march (i recommend this on every chance i get. it's why i find beth to be the most fascinating character in little women)

remote control (read this because of sufjan stevens. a very good account of the tonya harding scandal)

my grandma the poisoner (the horror i experienced the first time i read this is unparalleled. completely, utterly disturbing)

the empathy exams (you've probably heard of this and, yes, it deserves the hype)

exploring q slur (sigh) desire in hbo's succession (on the homoerotic undertones in succession's both seasons. need i say more?)

celebrity culture is burning (this is from march 2020, after gal gadot posted that atrocious imagine cover)

the age of instagram face (spot-on criticism of instagram beauty culture, fantastic read )

the lawless energy of teen-age girls (this is a new yorker piece on an excellent photography collection depicting teenage girlhood)

youtube channels/videos

liziqi (her videos will undoubtedly make you feel better on an off-day, especially on the cold winter days to come!)

goodnight moon (you will not believe the effort put into these themed asmr videos. check out her babblebrook series for cozy fantasy vibes)

asmr in movies & tv (ignoring the one of harry potter, this playlist offers quite a satisfying experience)

barbie movie clips (you did not know you needed this. it's a playlist of scenes from old barbie movies in extremely high definition)

reading my old diary like it's a work of classic literature (such a fun, light-hearted concept! watch this if you feel heavy and need a lil' something to cheer you up)

the immersive realism of studio ghibli and why miyazaki's films sound pretty (watching video essays on studio ghibli films is the highest form of self-care)

that time disney remade beauty and the beast and why the music in the live-action disney remakes is worse than you thought (disney-bashing is another great form of self-care)

how coraline borrows from ancient forms of storytelling (more specifically, it's a video essay on how coraline utilizes classic horror/ghost story tropes. very fascinating)

is titanic good, actually? (a lengthy video essay on the sweeping, epic tragedy that is titanic. enjoy)

parasite - the power of symbols and parasite's perfect montage (on the magnificent brilliance of bong joon ho's parasite)

misc.

the mytholadies podcast (very easy listening experience and fascinating explorations of your favorite ladies from mythology. they also do themed episodes every month!)

all three hadestown albums on spotify: concept album, original cast recording (live), original broadway cast recording (if the myth of orpheus and eurydice lives on your mind rent free, you need to listen to these. my personal favorite is the original cast recording, but all are fantastic)

the husband stitch (the chilling short story by carmen maria machado from the collection 'her body and other parties'. this is a favorite of mine)

the lottery (on the off-chance you haven't read this unsettling masterpiece, do it now)

artist searches childhood bully on facebook, doesn't expect to find this (this comic changed my perspective on everything)

subscribe (another comic i keep thinking about, this one's a critique of youtuber self-care culture)

this post (directs to one of the best writing resources i have ever come across)

[whyisislikethat]

draco: how cool would it be that all humans are actually nocturnal animals and over time we could have developed night vision but some weak asshole from the stone age decided to sleep at night?

harry: i know u dont have a sleep schedule but are u okay????

[whyisislikethat]

Draco: concept, hire a bunch of people to chant the chant “how low can you go” but for billionaires and its speed increases every time they commit an immoral act

Harry: already on the phone to make it happen

[whyisislikethat]

draco: you know what will be really funny. designing two toilets for the cis people and put two random objects there to see identify them as boy and girl. and when they finally decide which one they should enter, they go into the “boy” one and its walls are pink, or the “girl” one and the walls are blue

harry: i dont know how ur mind works but, yes chaos

[whyisislikethat]

me: lays in bed at 3am imagining fake scenarios, comes up with a really smart sentence.

me: proceeds to ignore sleep amd my other wips to wrtie an entire fic based off this one sentences

[whyisislikethat]

Draco: HARRY HE IS GONE

Haary: WHO?

Draco:THAT MF TRUMP IS OUT HES GONE FUCK HIM THROW HIM OUT YEA BIDEN WOHOOOOO

Harry: FUCK YEA YES YES YES YES HUMAN RIGHTS FUCK RACISM FUCK HOMOPHOBIA AND ISLAMPHOBIA AND ALL THAT BIGOTED SHIT EQUALITY AND TPWKTPWKTPWK

[whyisislikethat]

Ron: *falls of the stairs and hits his head, bleeding

Hermione: Quick call 911

Harry: What’s their number?

Hermione:

Ron: i- are you for real?

Draco: No, that’s valid

[whyisislikethat]

Why did the protons vote for Harry Potter? They didnt want to electRon

Why did Barty Crouch jr. stop drinking? because it was making him moody

YO MAMA IS SO FAT HER PATRONUS IS A CAKE

How many purebloods does it take to fix a car? ...Whats a car again?

[whyisislikethat]

Severus Snape, with the death eaters

[whyisislikethat]

Hermione: Why did you have to stab him?

Hermione: Well, what did he say?

Harry: He said, “What are you going to do, stab me?”

Weasleys:

Hogwarts:

Draco, nodding: thats fair

Happy APAHM and here’s a poem comic about my experiences being trans and Chinese I did in three days for my English class! 

[antidotefortheawkward-art]

Hey everyone!! I just wanted to say thank you so much for 17k+ notes. This is the farthest my art has ever reached, and out of all my pieces, I’m so glad it could have been this one. It’s been so so so nice to read the tags and find it connecting with so many other people, and it’s been so so so nice to see other trans Chinese people finding the comic? It’s so comforting to see other people having similar experiences to mine and it’s just such a good feeling to know we’re not alone in this :) So thank you all!!!!

Oh and- Bodhisattva Guanshiyin is transfem but to clarify, she is traditionally nonbinary!!
