ambivalent beach boys: would it be nice?

passive aggressive beach boys: well wouldn't that be nice.

IIRC, they had to terminate the project because the crows were attacking humans who were smoking cigarettes in order to get the "butt."

REBLOG IF IT YOUR ACCOUNT IS A SAFE SPACE FOR SWAPPINATORS🏳️‍⚧️

Ah, Perry the platypus. I see you're wearing a deboobinator (binder), I didn't know you were a swappinator.

I feel so insane about ai. I've had face-to-face conversations with people who use it for therapy, who use it to calculate the safety of pill interactions, who use it for all their emails and grant applications and legal documents and academic papers and finance sheets and for every single question they have about the world, and if you tell them about the ecological costs they just laugh and say "I guess I've used a lot of water." and I've been in multiple gatherings of 10+ people where I'm THE ONLY PERSON who doesn't use chatgpt. it's turning me into a ranting raving pariah, because how don't you people see??? why don't you understand??????? this bullshit didn't exist five years ago, you absolutely do not need it, and it is destroying everything

my relationship with gender? we're divorced

your unreliable narrator fucking bit me

thats not how they told it

History is written by victors

yeah well Victor fucking bit me

“as you do” <- for incredibly eccentric and even impossible actions

"obviously" <- for phrases with unclear and perchance even obscured meanings

Bamboozled again by the beauty that exists everywhere in the world if you listen!!!

#real #not to be salty but this is what ive been saying#like everyone out here really still acting like fanfic isnt really writing#like its subpar and like it cant be good and have amazing lines#even fanfic writers treat it like its LESS and like theyre PLAY writing and not actually writing#like friend buddy ican ASSURE YOU that fanfic is every bit as real and good as writing from books#the only difference between fic and actual books is that books go through several stages of processing and editing and filtering#and are worked on by professionals who studied the craft of editing#while fanfiction cuts that filtering and everyone gets a chance to be heard and to be read#and instead of editors we have peer editing and reviewing#dont be fucking tricked by the mass notion that anything that young girls and queer people are interested in is immediately bad and subpar#bc it is fucking not #i will FIGHT for it #fanfiction (tags by @crossroadswrite bacause they add so much to this post)

The real irony is there is plenty of fanfiction that goes through more rigorous editing than some published fiction. So the difference in quality between fanfiction and “professional writing” is totally arbitrary and made up. Except that some things that are more expensive are worse.

Fanfic has really raised my standards for what constitutes good writing.

Also, fanfiction isn’t affected by a publisher and the market.

After the druid in your party leaves, a bear strolls up—oddly friendly. Suspicious, the mage casts Speak with Animals. The bear says, "I heard your fake-bear left. I'm real, I'm better, and I'll work for fish, meat, and honey. Deal?"
