As someone with major anxiety who can’t fucking stop themself from scrolling, i appreciate posts like this

Real thing that changed how i write: I started asking "what does this character think is wrong with them" and separately "what is actually wrong with them." Those two things are almost never the same. She thinks she's too much. She's actually terrified of being too little. He thinks he's bad at commitment. He's actually just never met someone he trusted enough. The gap between their diagnosis of themselves and the real thing, that's your character arc right there. you don't have to explain it. just write both.

It’s the want vs need of it all.

"what if someone regrets transitioning" if you are 18 or over in free country usa you can walk into any tattoo parlor and ask for a tattoo that will be on your body forever and ever and ever and they will give it to you with the understanding that if you dont like the result or you regret it later that's your fucking problem and not theirs

I can excuse a lot of inaccuracies in other people's writing. But if there is something not completely historically correct in the fic that I don't even plan to post, backed up with scholarly research, I cannot continue to write.

the fact that some people can't even read books or long paragraphs and can't watch long content or movies or TV shows anymore because "they're too long" and they need to look at their phones while watching them is really worrying me, please fix your media literacy and your attention span, also I'm really worried about people who don't think about what they're watching or reading at all and have zero media literacy and need to have Information spoon fed to them
