i figured out how i was going to end this fic, only to immediately have an idea for a sequel that i probably have to write because it involves putting a blorbo in a ridiculous sun hat

I'm so out of touch with popular TV that when I started seeing screenshots of Noah Wyle from The Pitt, I was curious to see what the guy who played the librarian would be like as an ER doctor

It's really hard to overstate how much of American right wing politics is about proving a certain type of masculinity - one its adherents thinks makes them look strong, but from the outside is pathetic and grasping, driven by a deep internal fear that if they're not man enough they're nothing

maybe i should take up learning mandarin again so i can misunderstand chinese novels my own damn self instead of letting an ai do it for me

Nothing is eternal, not even AO3 Personally, I like to download as an .epub and import into Calibre because it preserves the tags

Enjoyed it thoroughly, as I expected to based on the first one in the trilogy. I'm only disappointed that the third will not be shipping to me until the 17th #books2026

EXCUSE ME, WHY ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION TO THIS CONTRAPTION AND NOT ME

it was so long ago that i don't remember clearly, but it was probably a sailor moon fanfic and it would have been on someone's personal website or a small fandom archive

"It is a very simple pwp but because I am a dramatic bitch I have given him class consciousness" is a sentence i just typed regarding my current wip

Cruel Angel’s Thesis Cruel Angel’s Abstract Cruel Angel’s Introductory Paragraph Cruel Angel’s Supporting Evidence Cruel Angel’s Conclusions Cruel Angel’s Annotated Bibliography—

I see this doing the rounds, but it is a deepfake and the account that posted it here doesn't seem very interested to know that

yes, more protagonists with sad rescue cat energy, please #books2026

I can't imagine hating a fruit, but if I had to choose one to go, it would be papaya

"Congratulations on your niche online subculture breaking containment and finding commercial success! Your punishment for succeeding when you're not supposed to will be endless scrutiny over your sexual interests and judgement over what you're allowed to like under the hetero-patriarchy."

the worst part about long, engrossing games is finishing them i usually get too attached to my characters to replay rpgs with a new one, so now that i've finished #veilguard i just have to sit with the post-game funk until the new shiny comes along

finally finished #veilguard today it's flawed, but i had a great time and i think it got a lot harsher criticism than it deserved i think once it became known as a "bad game", every criticism, legitimate or not, got amplified - the games review equivalent of a bitch eating crackers

River puppies 🐊 #art

draft of an email: hello, i ordered some books that i want to read. it was a whole two minutes ago and they have not yet arrived at my door if you are having delivery delays i would also accept them being put into a cannon and launched into the midwest. i can pick them up thank you, [redacted]

Being an author is great. You can just add another bisexual vampire to the mix. No one is stopping you.

This was a breath of fresh air and I've already ordered the trilogy that follows one of the side characters #books2026

you ever get the suspicion that you're talking to someone who doesn't have a fully developed theory of mind

today, this stopped me from reposting ai-generated ragebait about how bad ai is

i realize that the entire social media economy would collapse if we all did this, but we really need to be less impulsive about sharing content before we look into the source so many different types of toxic social media phenomena would be nipped in the bud if people just looked into the source

post a banger not in english (song starts at 45 seconds, but the announcer is also the vibe)

if i know discord for anything is that they can and will pussy out if people bully them enough for something. get fucking loud about this

maybe i will be proven wrong and it will be a hit, but from where i'm standing, live action #bg3 seems like a profound failure to read the room

Many feelings about roleplay being a genre of storytelling that requires community and human connection and resists being turned into profit. I wish more art was like that.

a less positive thing about #veilguard is that people who are still talking about it seem to be mostly complete stans or anti-fans it's hard to find people who like the game but have criticisms of it. it's like the bad faith criticisms hardened the remaining fandom into thinking the game is perfect

I don’t have whatever amino acid it is that makes you become a kpop stan. I’ve tried. It doesn’t work. How does this keep happening to people I know

Book checkpoint! Last: .... erm crap i literally forgot Current: Nomads and the Outside World Paladin's Grace Goblin Emperor Next: Going by Goblin Emperor, probably another Katherine Addison book

the most interesting thing about this is how he managed to make something that is bland on so many levels the choice of topic is bland. the dialogue is bland. the editing and direction is bland. the AI visuals are bland it's the artistic equivalent of a saltine cracker with no salt

today's adventure was getting locked out of my house because i lost my keys on the way to check on someone else's house i am now indoors but i am glad my mom nagged me to wear my hat all those years

the mood this saturday morning

i will not be respecting the weather until it respects me first

another day, another comment saying "if you're asexual, then" and following with something wildly unrelatable

another positive thing about #veilguard I often feel like RPGs force you to decide to romance an NPC way too early and express those feelings at moments that feel inappropriate "Hey, new person, I just met you and you're trying to talk to me about your dead father, but I like your eyelashes"

Throw away the freaking spy robots in your house.

more positive things about #veilguard they've addressed the issue with party-based RPGs where you wonder what everyone who's not in the active party is doing. they're there in support roles during major story quests, and the eluvians mean they can be in contact and working with their home factions

i said i would say positive things about #veilguard and there are honestly a lot of things to say one of the big ones is that there's a lot of thought that went into making the world and characters seem dynamic. companions are still talking about major losses that happened hours of playtime ago

i really need to consider the source when someone tries to convince me i'm going to like the het romance novel because it has an "unconventional romance" this is the most conventional romance i've read in years

the editorial board

#veilguard is eating my brain there are really frustrating moments. it has issues. but i honestly think that those issues being what they are overshadowed a lot of what is good about the game. they are the kind of issues people feel strongly about

Kinda surprised to see so many people uncritically sharing this story in which - non gay bar in Salt Lake City hosts a Heated Rivalry watch party on a random Thursday, two weeks after the season finale - there’s somehow only one man in this non gay bar on this random Thursday night for this party

sometimes i get curious and look at the fic with the most kudos on ao3 for a fandom i don't really know and that is how i found out today that the warhammer 40k fic with the most kudos is a crossover with boku no hero academia

I started #Veilguard yesterday after finally finishing the Trespasser DLC for Inquisition. And playing them back to back has REALLY highlighted some things about which I have THOUGHTS

why are the horses in #da:i so big is there a lore reason other than "so qunari don't look like they're going to kill the poor horse" and "so dwarves look absolutely hilarious"

i wasn't going to stay up for the year to tick over because i would rather start the new year in the early morning, with a coffee and a notebook but then i just stayed up late watching youtube music videos anyway. so, the new year is starting out promising

i am saving this for after i watch the show which it is becoming increasingly clear that i need to watch
