Every single crossword should have a disclaimer at the bottom that reads, “we will not confirm or deny if an answer for this puzzle contains the term for the former Russian emperors, but IF IT DOES, we’d spell it tsar/czar [select as appropriate].” Anyway doing really badly with my crossword this morning

Oh sunk-cost fallacy, we're really in it now. We are in fact so really in it that if we quit now then everything we did would have all been for nothing and so we have to keep going in

when i was a kid we only had windows 95 and we had to sharpen the points of our mouse cursors with pocket knives to make them precise enough to click things reliably

If you're a reader who gets nervous about leaving comments, please take a moment to read the notes on this post. The tags alone have been giving me life for the past week, and it's honestly lovely.

People who "only" comment are so so important. I recognise the usernames of people who regularly comment on my fics and I love them all. In fact I love anyone who leaves an uplifting comment on my work, whether it's once or repeatedly. Interaction is so important, it's really nice to feel like you're connecting with people via what you create, even if just for a brief moment.

the point of art is not to be great but to make it transparently obvious that there is something wrong with you
