IDGAF if the women in my fiction are empowering or aspirational, I'm an adult, I don't need role models, I want the women in my fiction to be interesting, and if that involves being pathetic, hypocritical, amoral, or trapped in a delightfully dysfunctional relationship so be it
#'this is so illegal/toxic/unhealthy'#yeah bestie thats why im reading about it instead of doing it

No amount of deadly colds is ever going to make me hate winter. Strong one universe but not gonna work
My hottest Arcane take is that a lot of caitvi antis come across as complete wimps whose only exposure to lesbian couples are kids cartoons and vanilla yuri manga. Like I’m fairly certain half an episode of Killing Eve would instantly make these people pass out if caitvi of all ships is their limit for fucked up relationship dynamics. Please I am begging you watch/read more lesbian media made for adults, there’s an entire world out there that you’re missing.
every time i ask people if they do any new years resolutions its all ooooo i dont like making them bc i fail or ohhhhh no i couldnt keep up wiht that and then when they ask me and i tell them about Pasta Quest (i am eating as many different pasta shapes as possible in the space of a year) or when i did Fruit Adventures (every time i saw a fruit i had never eaten before id get one and eat it and read the wikipedia article about it) theyre like hang on i forgot you can make Fun Ones i want a fun one
while i actually made this post back in May, since New Year’s is approaching here’s some of my fave suggestions from the tags if you’re looking for inspiration!
other favorites from the notes I didn’t get screenshots of at the time:
learn the names/species of local plants, bugs, and birds where you live (iNaturalist or Merlin the bird app help with this)
learn the rules to 10 new card games
steal the colored paint cards from hardware store paint aisles and use them to make art
try out every different apple variety you can find and rank them
similarly LOTS of people in the notes doing soup quests, and a few cheese quests also
similarly lots of people reading/watching certain amounts of media over the year, and tracking/rating it
track the number of cats/dogs/etc you see over the year
there’s plenty more in there too :)
this year I’m gonna grow things from SEED
Specifically tomatoes and maybe melons

nopeferatu: my new years resolution is to suck and fuck, just kidding i dont really want that, my new years resolution is to make myself like avocados :)

On Discomfort and Morality
My father finds gay men uncomfortable.
He's told me before that it's like a knee-jerk for him. Something he doesn't consciously control. He sees two men behaving romantically, and his body reacts with mild discomfort.
In the 1960s, when he was in high school, most of the boys in his form thought he was gay on the simple fact that he wasn't homophobic. He wouldn't participate in insulting queer people, he didn't care if someone was gay, he wouldn't have a problem hanging out with gay people. So people thought he was gay. That's how prevalent homophobia was in his formative years.
When I was 10, my dad told me very seriously that Holmes and Watson were gay. That it was obvious from the literature and the time period that they were meant to be a gay couple. When I was 14 and I came out to my parents as bi, when my mum was upset my dad ripped into her for it. Told her that she was being stupid, that it was my life to live how I wanted to and that she needed to get over herself.
My dad formed my views on censorship: that being that it was completely ridiculous and thoroughly evil. He didn't believe in censorship of any kind. If I asked him a question about sex, he answered it honestly. When I was 12 and I asked him about homosexuality, still young and uncertain, he told me that there was nothing wrong with it. That it was just how some people were. That there was likely an evolutionary reason for it. And that for some people it was uncomfortable on an instinctual level.
He taught me that just because you're uncomfortable with something, doesn't make it wrong. He also taught me that most people don't understand this.
I see a lot of this on the internet as of the last few years. The anti shipping movement, the terf movement, the anti ace movement. It all stems from discomfort that people have crossed wires into believing means wrong. Really every -ism and -phobia out there stems from this same fundamental aspect of humanity.
The next time you see something and you automatically think it's disgusting, or wrong, or immoral, I invite you to ask yourself: is this actually wrong or does this just make me uncomfortable?
People want vi to be upset with caitlyn because she used the grey to target the chem barrons in zaun, but vi was right there with her.
Like vi was never an advocate for zaun, just like jinx was never and advocate for zaun. The only reason jinx breaks everyone out of prison is because of isha. These two sisters are so alike they don't even know it. They will follow the ones that they love, they are not here to be the world changing types.(this is also why powder in the alternate universe is stagnant. So to speak.)
Ekko and Sevika are the ones actively seeking zaun out to be a better place. Being advocates for the people of zaun. Ekko and sevika are opposite sides of the same coin just as jinx and vi are.
I love your big brain, OP
Caitlyn's life is truly insane cause girly was basically a traffic cop who accidentally found out the Sheriff (her boss!) is corrupt and working with a drug lord, then she gets blown up by said drug lord's daughter, gets fired from her traffic cop job for being nosy, then decided to do some vigilante justice by forging a government official's signature to break her future wife out of prison. She then runs around the Undercity chasing after said future wife (who might have a death wish) gets kidnapped, her boss tries to shoot her, then she gets blown up AGAIN, gets broken up with without even being together (yet), gets kidnapped AGAIN, decides not to kill her not gf/future wife's sister (who kidnapped her), then watches said sister kill her mother, then gets promoted from fired traffic cop to SWAT team, not gf becomes her actual gf, gets blown up again again, breaks up with her gf, and then gets promoted to commander of a sovereign nation by a warmongering foreign power.
Also she's 23 and this happened in like a month.
The eight stages of writing :
- this is awesome
- this is slightly less awesome
- this is shit
- I’m shit
-oh god oh fuck what the hell am I doing
-wait this might not be that bad actually
- How the fuck is this working
-This is awesome
At some point "fanfic can be as good as professional writing" became "fanfic should be as good as professional writing" and that's caused major damage to fandom spaces.
THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING.
fanfiction is a hobby it shouldn't be stressful because you think your writing isn't good enough!!!! you don't owe random people on the internet ANYTHING!!!!!
Im pretty sure it worked
