one time in college i was in a creative writing class and this guy was holding up the critique with what i can only describe as like cinemasins dinging another student's writing. and at some point the professor said "the plot is the fork and the prose is the meal. you are critiquing the taste of the fork"

cars are so much scarier than planes. i've literally never been afraid on an airplane like first of all being on a plane is fun. second of all you're in a big as fuck vehicle with no other vehicles around for miles and the person at the wheel is a professional and not just Some Guy. one time i was getting a ride home from a nonbinary friend of a friend who was driving very erratically down the highway at 1am and they said to me unprompted "i have ocd so i only drive at speeds that are multiples of five"

genuinely i think the baseline assumption that all autistic people have fandom/media special interests comes from the fact that ppl with non fandom autism generally aren't on tumblr dot com. like if your special interest is fly fishing you probably aren't going on the "arguing about yaoi" website, at least not for that specifically

big scary creature with a little pink bow on her head is the only type of character design that matters

i don't need a guard dog butch i need a bumbling henchman butch. like she's very loyal and wants to protect me but she's constantly fucking up my schemes due to being tricked by children and/or talking animals. shes always going “errrr im sowry boss they escaped the dungeon :(“ and i'm always hitting her with lightning bolts. yeah i’ll say shit like “you’ve failed me for the last time you impudent worm” but i never throw her into my volcano despite her obvious incompetence because all of this is ultimately a sex thing
