Since all the cool kids are making pinned abouts I thought I would too

Quinn, mid-twenties, I don’t care what pronouns you use, most people default to she/her and that’s fine

Previously I have gone by: Pixie, Rue, Ruby, Dally, which I clarify so older friends I’ve lost touch with will know that yeah, it’s me.

Previous URLs: daaeleira, comealongpixie, marysuewhipple, unsavedprincesses, elevenimpossiblethings, probably more I can’t remember

Url Meaning: Stark as in Tony Stark and lore and in folklore because Marvel and Taylor Swift are the only things that make my ADHD brain produce dopamine anymore

Hobbies include: woobifying and excusing antiheroes and villains and shipping them with my mary-sue OCs

On the blog: OC stuff, self-ship stuff, marvel, stony, taylor swift, encanto, text posts and other things, probably, but those are the big ones.

Tag me in your OC posts! I wanna get more involved in the OC community again so please feel free to add me to your tag lists if you’re an OC creator! And yes, this applies even if we’ve never spoken before! This does not apply to Christmas posts, however. I prefer to ignore Christmas wherever possible. It’s not a trigger, and you can tag me in posts that mention it in passing, just please do not tag me in Christmas Celebration posts.

Please don’t follow unless you’re over 18. I am not comfortable having minors follow me at this time. 

Other than that, all are free to follow. If I don’t want you around, I’ll block you. I will say if you’re a Trump supporter or the like; someone who thinks that Mary-Sues are a coherent framework for analyzing characters; or someone who frets a great deal over whether fictional works are morally permissible or not, you’re probably not going to have a good time here. 

“Why did you block me?” My blocklist is in the thousands so I probably don’t remember but it’s probably because you have bad political or discourse opinions. That or something super petty that I took personally during a manic episode years ago. Message me on one of my writing blogs (listed below) if you want to be unblocked and we can try to work it out if you want.

Anon, I'm sorry this site takes such a toll on you, but if you're going to continue putting words in my mouth and taking out whatever presumably terf-related trauma you have on me, you're just going to have to put your name to it.

If I wanted to be as uncharitable as you are being right now, I'd point out that a lot of people who say "female politicians shouldn't be praised uncritically" also do praise male politicians uncritically, or at least do not come down nearly as hard on them as their male counterparts, and a lot of their "criticism" just boils down to wanting to call HRC or AOC unfuckable c*nts without backlash.

If I wanted to be as uncharitable as you, I'd assume that that's who you're talking about when you imply that what I'm really upset about is people "not praising female politicians uncritically."

I'm going to be the bigger person, though, and answer this question on the assumption that you really are talking about completely reasonable people who don't have a sexist bone in their body, but are simply pointing out that female politicians are imperfect.

The most recent post I made kvetching about this was spurred by a thread of people, started by someone with "radical leftist" in bio, earnestly arguing that no one benefits from misogyny, and that misandry is actually just as systemic.

Most people don't come out and say it outright like they did, but I see this sentiment all the time. From demanding women qualify their posts about men and male privilege with every known intersecting identity that can change dynamics (and only demanding this of women; I rarely to never see this happen with queerness, religion, etc). To completely erasing the role of misogyny in abortion restrictions. To centering the conversation on a white woman who got abused and murdered by her boyfriend not on how our system allowed that to happen, but on how privileged she is (was) because true crime armchair detectives and fake psychics used her tragedy for tiktok clout.

(And don't take this the wrong way, we should absolutely talk about how missing woc are rarely given the same media attention, but you can make that point without acting like Gabby Petito had it easy because her body got found after she died, and you can make that point and also talk about, you know, the fact that cops were called to prevent her death and instead were joking around with her BF while she was sobbing.)

Not a dumb question at all!!! F/O stands for "fictional other." It's a term used in the self-shipping community to denote the characters one ships themselves with. So the page with my F/Os is a list of the characters I ship myself with.

Self-shipping is exactly what it sounds like, shipping yourself (or a self-insert version of yourself) with a fictional character, the way you would ship two (or more) fictional characters together.
