one of the many reasons to insist upon chronological timelines is that it's much, much harder to scroll forever if you can catch up with yourself. if you can run out of tumblr because you reach yesterday, that is a good and helpful prompt to do something else.

holy shit girl

The in-game drug med-x is called that in fallouts 3, 4, and New Vegas because of Australia. It was originally supposed to be called morphine but the Australians have strict censorship laws and sadly prevented the rest of us from running through the nuclear apocalypse pumping ourselves full of morphine.

(to the tone of creep by radiohead) but i'm asleep. on mypillow

what the honk am i shoo'in here

the two kinds of tgirl are “infinite anger that destroys everything around her” and “infinite patience that lets the world turn her into a doormat”. and they both love giving the other unhelpful advice about how to manage their emotions

My thane whatever you do DO NOT

fetishization as a colloquialism inherently implies dehumanization. like a fat fetishizer who fucks a fat woman and gets off on that but would never date or be seen in public with her is engaging in dehumanizing behavior. they see this person as a sexual object and not a human being with thoughts and feelings and an inner world. heated rivalry is not a show that dehumanizes queer men, it is a queer love story, where both characters are given agency, lives independent of one another, emotions and fears (romantic or otherwise), and yeah, sexual desire too. i genuinely find it hard to believe that a massive swath of "straight women" are engaging with a happily-ever-after romance plot for the sole purpose of fetishizing and thus dehumanizing queer men. there are exceptions to everything that prove the rule, but you will not convince me this is happening on a wide scale. especially on tumblr

I won't ever get over the removal of headphone jacks, or micro sd slots, or cd drives. I won't. Fuck everyone and everything

anyways. my final thoughts on the ai thing is that if you've used ai for fanfic writing, you can just stop. if youre genuinely just someone who's using it as a tool bc youve gotten used to it, its not too late to stop. I guarantee you that your writing will be better and all AI is teaching you is now how to write like AI. u need to learn how to write like u. and if you look, you Can find people in fandom to help you. theres someone who can help you proofread your fic, or tinker with your sentences. someone to help you with code. someone to help u find the answers to all your hockey questions. and itll be more fun this way

Learning to find your own voice is a very fundamentally important part of writing. It is ultimately what sets your work apart because someone else would have thought of a similar plot, used similar tropes, the same characters in a situation™. But your voice will always be yours and unique to you.

important reminder that most people you follow online are significantly lamer than you think they are including me. and if you feel insecure comparing yourself to someone online: DON'T. theyre probably also lame and weird. most people on the internet are

reblog if you're also lame and weird.

a squirrel or perhaps a cardinal posted this

this “bon appetit” meme has turned into some sort of bizarre telephone game where each incarnation sounds more and more different than the original. in what way does “bon appetit” sound like “osteoporosis”

i don’t know but it’s cracking me up every time i even think about it

bon appetit -> bone apple teeth -> bone ??? ??? -> osteoporosis

used to think it terribly silly (and kinda funny) when fantasy or sci-fi stories would have people refer to major recent historical events as The Flood or The Incident or The Revolution, and im sure historians fucking hate that because it's not helpful or descriptive, but we sure do be calling it The Pandemic
