Snarkivist Thoughts

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a busser came up with the idea on their break and a barista fact-checked it while they cleaned the espresso machine and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

God sometimes I'm writing smut and I'll like, delete a sentence because I'm like, no, I can't write that. It's too indulgent. And then it's like. Girl, what the fuck are you even going to the candy store for if you're just going to buy raisins. Get real.

"what the fuck are you even going to the candy store for if you're just going to buy raisins" is honestly the thing I needed to hear today

this fetish stuff is getting out of hand what the fuck is word play

If any competition needed to be on Tumblr, it's this one.

What’s the polar opposite of a Cursed Object? A Blessed Relic? In any case these wee socks are divine.  

“knowing how to write effective AI prompts will be a valuable skill in the future” and what if I skip all that and write the email myself in under 30 seconds drawing from my very own biological database of language and rhetoric (my brain)?

I love characters who would die for each other but will not, under any circumstances, communicate a single honest feeling.
