500 words a day gets the novel written

I swear to GOD I’m not vagueing my situation, but I made a post recently about books I was planning to read this year, and I find it very….. interesting that multiple people came into my inbox afterward to tell me that all the queer authors in the bunch had sinned. like maybe they had, I dunno. it wouldn’t stop me reading (I love Interview with the Vampire, I have Thoughts about Anne Rice, etc). but it is interesting that none of the non-queer authors merited this whisper campaign, despite some of them honestly deserving it. not saying anything outright here, just making an observation. listening and learning. you know

the mythbusters once tested "herding cats" and at one point they brought in a proper trained herding dog and the poor dogs face when the first cat responds to his herding with swipes and aggression is to look at her human and go 😰 the sheep is broken?? what do i do boss??

[Image ID: Tumblr tags from greatAndHolyPangolin reading: this except often during lambing season you do get sheep fighting back when the dogs are too pushy, either mama sheep going Don't speak to me or my son ever Again, and giving the dog a solid headbutt, Or, In rare cases, a lamb will try to nip a dog and will find out that it works at deterring them and will lose all respect for the concept of sheepdogs, at that point we need to keep an eye on the lamb because if it continues to not have consequences it will become rogue and unherdable, in my family they're affectionately referred to as Sweetheart Darling Bastards (which I recently found out it a poem reference? Wow) /End ID]

this is prime proof that this ENTIRE WEBSITE is autistic because nowhere else would a no tags post that's just an informative list about slang get this much traction.
