Characters will make a very nuanced choice that makes sense for their story arc and internal conflict, and audience members will be like "is anyone else going to misconstrue this in the most black and white, bad faith manner possible?"

the funniest part of sidney crosby being the oldest man alive for every sportscaster and interviewer alike is that geno is in the same team and he's fucking older than him

happy 40 years to the ever reliable geno

Please return us to a world where Notp and squick are used for a ship you don’t like instead of just making up a load of bullshit about how immoral it is or w/e lol 

bring the healthy fun back to fandom!

Remember when joining fandom as a younger person meant lurking for a bit and figuring out the vibe and etiquette instead of coming in on day one and calling people weirdos for liking weirdo shit in the weirdo factory.

its actually crazy how good music is. and its all different, too. like wow. huge deal really when you think about it

reblog to give your headache to elon musk instead

sometimes i talk about how awful it was to feel trapped by my daily makeup routine and how i couldn’t leave the house without putting on a full face and it played a major role in the misery of my high school experience because i had to spend so much extra time getting ready in the mornings and that followed me into my early 20s as well and it was hell and it was so incredibly liberating to go through the slow and uncomfortable but ultimately essential process of getting my bare face back and having makeup be an optional accessory instead of a mandatory uniform. and the response always tends to be ah yes of course, because of your trans and your masculine. and it’s like aha so close! actually! I think if I ended up being a feminine cis woman I also still would not deserve even a second of that shit! I think trans women and nonbinary people and every human alive should have the option to leave the house without a single cosmetic product ever touching their face! but thanks for playing!

#i'm developing this personal theory that makeup is the same as a Fun Hat#aka something you can put on to be extra noticeable or fancy or to add a quality to your look such as shiny/sparkly/menacing/giving cunt#and maybe you're the type of person who regularly wears a Fun Hat! you're a Fun Hat Type of Gal (gender neutral)!#but like– nobody should be going around and thinking about other people 'i can't believe she's not wearing a Fun Hat to the grocery store'#and in fact: most people do not#and simultaneously (nuance):#in some industries or social settings you DO get judged for not wearing makeup#and it would be fucking crazy to say all successful lawyers need to wear a Fun Hat every day to work to be taken seriously. and yet.

reblog to make prev stop having headaches

sometimes that character just wouldn’t hide an injury. it’s a great trope but only if they would do that.

and sometimes the character wouldn’t try to push through sickness and do their day job or whatever. again i see what you’re going for but sometimes in these fics something else can happen. open your hearts and minds to scenarios such as “the character is actually pretty expressive about their needs and is willing to complain a lot but the other characters still don’t take it that seriously for whatever reason and have to deal with the guilt and quencies after”. or “the character takes a rest at the appropriate time (or earlier!) but then faces punishment/being ignored/hostility for doing so and that is what worsens their condition into a serious one.” or “the character is a practical one who informs people sensibly and takes every necessary step, yet to their distress their condition still spirals out of the control.” or whatever else but just do you see what i’m saying not every character is a silent sufferer and that isn’t the only way to put them in a situation . we can innovate
