Rules: without naming them, post a gif from ten of your favorite films and then tag ten people to do the same.

@mutedtempest made me a fic! Based on a prompt I gave :) Go read it, it’s wonderful and soft and only 640 words so you have no excuse!

Wow. Fictional teenagers really aren’t worth this much stress, I promise.

Hello, person I’ve never talked to before,

I find assembling a few pieces of textual evidence sprinkled with small paragraphs, token swearing, and the application of text codes to be trivially easy, and also actually kind of enjoyable when done in response to someone trying to abuse and/or harass me.

Please don’t make assumptions about my psychological state or stress levels from a single post, especially in a world which is probably going to become uninhabitable within 100 years due to climate change, and in which I have to deal with a mentally unstable and demented Russian agent being President of the United States with 5,000 nuclear weapons at his command. (Doubly so given the world in question has us floating on the little bits of a magma ball that have cooled enough to remain solid, while hurtling around an unshielded fusion reactor, which orbits a black hole, all tumbling through an empty void that is continuously growing larger.)

I am well aware of how little fictional teenagers matter, and find engaging with their media material to be therapeutic in comparison to the terrors of everyday life that we all take for granted as animals with a capacity to distract ourselves. I find this fun.

Holy shit. Does that affect your tattooing/drawing at all, or is it on your non-dominant hand?
