Brain is AFK

it would be so nice to have One Day where my body isn't doing some kinda bullshit

true friends support your probably-slightly-unhealthy obsession with your favorite fictional character

yeah yeah rainbow capitalism is bad and whatever but like. when I was a child, being pro gay was not the popular or lucrative choice. I'm happy that times have changed.

I miss rainbow capitalism. I do. I miss when it felt like public opinion was still pro gay. I understand it was always an empty gesture, but it mattered in a sense of knowing how socially acceptable being queer is. If that makes sense.

It was always a thermometer, not a thermostat, and I’m begging people to understand that.

A lot of us are old enough to remember when a company risked mass boycotts and organized campaigns for daring to sponsor a Pride or LGBT+ event. A lot of us are old enough to remember when you could not find Pride flags or other rainbow items for sale in mainstream stores anywhere. What changed was that companies felt the LGBT+ community was worth selling to, worth publicly standing behind and worth acknowledging. And now that's changed again for many companies, which is a canary in the coal mine that should concern all of us.

they should invent a job that doesn't affect your schedule or energy level that you don't have to go to if you don't want but you still get paid

I can definitively prove that every single "marker" of AI has been present in my writing since the year of our Lord nineteen fucking ninety seven. Fuck AI.

I'm not built for a 9 to 5. I'm built to wander in the woods and stare at a lake.

I still think it’s objectively fucked how the world is built for morning people and if you wake up later than everyone else you’re seen as a malicious aberration of some sort. I am that but it’s not because I wake up at 11 fuck yourself

The problem with having OCs is that sometimes you wanna read about your little guy being in situations but unfortunately he is YOUR little guy and no one is gonna put him in that situation but you. Tragic.

Imagine the level of whimsy I could reach if I just had $5M in my bank account rn

there are two wolves inside me. one wants to write and the other wants to nap. they’re both in a cage called My Job.

pining is 100000% the most important aspect of pre-relationship fic for me. good-natured whole-hearted pining filled with lovelorn gazing and chest aching and fluttering touches, that’s my top priority. i was put on this earth to watch characters suffer over the profundity of their love for another person. unrequited love is why god made me. characters finding out that their feelings are reciprocated after long months/years of suffering is why the universe was assembled from nothingness. amen.
