My MOTHER has said kriff in front of HER CLASS of HIGHSCHOOLERS because my brother and I were both banned from real swearing and really into Star Wars as kids and SHE PICKED IT UP.

She didn't know it was from Star Wars until one of her students told her but my god looking at *vague gesture* the Way That I Am, you'd think she would have guessed.

the problem with reading too much star wars fanfiction is at some point in real life I just know I am going to fuck up and say kriff

thinking about how when you experience a lot of shame in your formative years (indirectly, directly, as abuse or just as an extant part of your environment) it becomes really difficult to be perceived by other people in general. the mere concept of someone watching me do anything, whether it's a totally normal activity or something unfamiliar of embarrassing, whether I'm working in an excel spreadsheet or being horny on main, it just makes my skin crawl and my brain turn to static because I cannot convince myself that it's okay to be seen and experienced. because to exist is to be ashamed and embarrassed of myself, whether I'm failing at something or not, because my instinctive reaction to anyone commenting on ANYTHING I'm doing is to crawl into a hole and die. it's such a bizarre and dehumanizing feeling to just not be able to exist without constantly thinking about how you are being Perceived. ceaseless watcher give me a god damn break.

"Why is it a problem if students use AI to get through college"

Because if you demonstrate to me that you're willing to set aside concern for truth, evidence, and verifying things with your own eyes whenever it happens to be inconvenient for you, I have a solemn responsibility to make sure you don't get into medical school.

And Pygmalion prayed to Hephaestus, Coppersmith, Renowned Artificer, god of the forge and stonecarving, and prayed that his ivory sculpture may be brought to life.

But Hephaestus, Cunning, Clubfoot, stayed his hand; “I will not allow this,��� he said. “To destroy thine handiwork would be contrary to my nature. For great craftsmanship shall last forever, while flesh will falter in time. In stone, she will have beauty that is everlasting, endless and immortal.”

Then Pygmalion prayed to Aprodite and said, “Can you please bring my sculpture to life? Your husband said no,” and lo; Aphrodite had the chance to do something hilarious.

Appreciate it, I don’t keep up with the Disney stuff at all so that's helpful to know what people are talking about, thanks!

Kidnapper: I have one of your apprentices. Dooku: Which one? I have seven. Kidnapper: The loud, annoying, rowdy one who never shuts up. Dooku: Which one? I have seven. Qui-Gon, distantly: HEY!!!

I add each tag when I get up to the chapter that has that in.

That said, I'm writing for a pretty niche ship so hardly anyone cares.

Question for AO3 authors: Is it courtesy to mark your fanfic as explicit even if it's going to be very SFW for a long time but eventually NSFW, as in many chapters later? (EG. When writing a long slowburn) Or is it better to swap the tag when you get there? I'm p new to writing fanfiction. I just don't want people to see the explicit tag and expect porn for a loooong time.

🤦‍♀️

Oh hey congrats, that's amazing!

[bucketofdeltav]

i hate it when i cant even write a poem about something because its too obvious. like in the airbnb i was at i guess it used to be a kids room cause you could see the imprint of one little glow in the dark star that had been missed and painted over in landlord white. like that's a poem already what's the point

How in Force name are we counting here

Qui-Gon, yes

Komari, yes

Asaaj yes okay sure

I assume you're counting Rael because that's the fashion just now (I've been writing Legends fic since before it was called Legends and I'm not throwing my whole timeline off by eight fucking years now)

That's four

Who am I missing?

Kidnapper: I have one of your apprentices. Dooku: Which one? I have seven. Kidnapper: The loud, annoying, rowdy one who never shuts up. Dooku: Which one? I have seven. Qui-Gon, distantly: HEY!!!
