I can’t ever leave tumblr because I just love the tag function.. no other social media platform allows you to heckle yourself on your own post. you get to preemptively make metatextual commentary abt your OWN POST. how cool is that

girl help i have a fic idea that won't leave my brain but i don't think i have the capacity to pull it off

me and my massive throbbing enormous dripping guilt complex

there should be a socially acceptable way to say "im not sure what to say to that. can you say something different"

we ask that the defense not say "me when i lie" while the witness testifies

Shipping is fun and all but I swear every single time someone makes a comment, whether as a joke or in a legitimate analysis, about there being "no other explanation" for a pair's interactions, I lose just a bit more of my sanity

Like, no, you guys don't get it. Romance is not about the Amount of devotion, it's about the COLOR. the FLAVOR of it all. a character can be just as devoted to their platonic friend as they are to their romantic partner, and they don't love either of them more, just differently.

But because the majority of people still have it stuck in their minds that romance exists on the highest tier of love, I'm stuck seeing endless takes that boil down to "these two care about each other too much for it to NOT be romantic" as if that's the core determining factor to how literally any of this works

In conclusion: stop telling me that I don't understand the story if I don't interpret the leads as romantic, I am TIRED

It’s fine because I’m actually using a secret technique called writing it in my head and nowhere else.

someone said we had more fun in childhood because we didnt have any past memories to linger on and it has stuck with me ever since

she’s cringe. she’s cooler than you. she’s so so smart. she’s the biggest dumbass you’ll ever seen. she’s got mental illnesses the dsm hasn’t even got a name for yet. she’s fine she’s fine she’s great actually she’s the normalest girl in the world. she’s hurt so many people. she regrets it so much. she wants to hurt people again. she’s the most neurotic loser you’ve ever seen. she’s the most confident composed competent member of the team. she lies until she doesn’t know what’s real. she’s even bisexual. i didn’t say her name but she popped into your head didn’t she

however you want to frame it, misogyny is why slash is more popular than femslash. men are afforded depth even when the character in question is working with an inch of water in a wading pool. that doesn’t mean you, personally, are a misogynist for enjoying a little destiel or those 911 boys. a lesbian who enjoys slash more is still a lesbian. but it is worth considering innit!

i understand the appeal of publishing "fic with the serial numbers filed off" as original work but i also feel like. what makes something a good fic is at odds with what makes something a good original story.
