Vaudevillain Girls and Violin Strings

me, haunted by yet another idea for a 250k fic i have neither the energy nor the free time for, but that shall rattle its chains at me for the foreseeable future nonetheless: i wish it had never come to me gandalf

I'm stealing this. Thanks.

I’ve gotta be honest I hesitate to give writing advice anymore because whenever someone tells me your story needs to do xyz I immediately need to write a story breaking all of those rules they just spelled out because I’m just Like That and who am I to further enable other people who are also Like That

"I learned a lot from making this" is artist talk for "making this sucked ass and I'm not entirely happy with the result."

“Even a slightly increased possibility of summoning rain is still an ability to summon rain” is such a good point

help I’m having ideas beyond my available free time

there are fully formed galaxies at the apparent edge of the universe and Yes they are gay of course. its all gay. the whole tbing

the thing about giving up is that it isn’t permanent. one must give up like twice a week in order to keep going

the secret to continuing Despite is to set aside time every once in a while to allow the aching, screaming, exhausted toddler in your chest to have a full blown tantrum and make half a hundred promises about never ever taking any shit ever again and walking into the ocean or running off into the woods and becoming a hermit. and you watch it and you wait for it to calm down and then when it’s sniffling on the floor you offer it a lollipop and go “alright buddy are you ready to keep walking” and it’ll be like “yeah :(“ and off you go again

I met a girl who did a very good half of exam but didn't actually know the answer, so she wrote a full page (two sides), left half a sentence at the end of the page and wrote "Page 1 of 2" and submitted that. Because the teacher assumed it was her fault and that she had lost half of the exam, she gave her a passing grade hoping she wouldn't complain. And she didn't, of course.

In college, I forgot I had a paper (that I hadn't written a word of) due, until the teacher asked us to pass them forward at the start of the class... I had my computer though, and so I said I had forgotten the printed copy at home, could I please run to the computer lab after class and print it and bring it right over? He said sure, he could wait a few minutes since it was just downstairs. I don't have to look at my hands to type, so I wrote it in class while staring at the board like I was taking notes, and printed it off after. Got a B on it.

I learnt how to corrupt a file so that I could submit a pdf by the due time then go into school where they'd be like "it doesn't open can you send it again" and I'd be all !!! Oh no! But by then I'd had all night to write it up so I could just pull my laptop out in front of them and submit the file whatever way they wanted. And I know everyone did the ol' "forgot to attach the document" trick for presentations once or twice

I’m sorry my lovelies but the reason you hate yourself is because you treat you like shit. If you came up to me and then told me I was a fuck up who could never do anything right I'd fucking hate you too.

if you didn't let me go to bed until after midnight because you'd rather watch Netflix than let me rest, and then got mad at me for not being productive the next day I'd be PISSED

remember that guy that had a single auditory hallucination that told him he had a brain tumor and the exact location and then he went to the doctor and it was fucking right

a thing about me is i basically never notice a wig or other kind of hairpiece in tv/movies. it has to be party city territory for me to even twig it. people will complain about characters' wigs looking bad and i will nod along but there is like a 90% chance i did not notice for a second while watching. i consider this mostly a blessing.

Do not fall for the grindset mentality; jerk off and eat a hot pocket to recover spiritually

You just don't get this on other sites

shaving isn’t even like remotely close to the biggest issue feminism needs to tackle but it’s just astonishing to me how the most lukewarm bare minimum of normalizing natural body hair on women is met with such pushback from “progressives” on here. like that’s why i keep bringing it up. like if you fucks can’t get behind “women shouldn’t feel like they have to shave and shouldn’t be groomed into shaving” then what the hell can you be counted on for? nothing, clearly
