i think theres this idea in the general public that the "best" fanfic gets turned into real books like 50 shades of grey. but the truth is that the best fanfic can never be published as an actual book because its intricately woven into the canon material so its inseparable even if you change the names

Vote.

No buts. No 'all evil candidates.' No excuses. No bullshit. You either give a shit about what's happening to you in the United States or you fucking don't. No pleasantries, no argument to hide behind, this is it. Been seeing a lot of Propaganda cropping up again in my feed and I am 10,000% not here for it. I have officially hit my absolute limit for complete and utter nonsense spouted by right-wing bots and plants as some psyop to get the chronically online to not vote.

Bite your lip. Hold your nose. Hell, complain the whole time if you want. But fucking vote. If you care, you fucking vote. That's it.

purge of 2002? of 2012? what ARE those?

Oh, how quickly the past is forgotten. 

They are part of the reason A03 is a thing now. Not the whole reason, but part of it. 

The Great Purges of 2002 and 2012 are when ff.net got a wild hair up their ass about THINK OF THE CHILDREN and nuked any fic posted on there that was explicit. Thousands upon thousands of nc-17 smutfics were lost.

It’s what led to the creation of alternate hosting sites for smutty fic…AdultFanfiction was the one I went to…but thousands of fics would never be recovered.

Hi! I'm Zoe, and I bookbind. I really enjoyed reading Like A Good Neighbor, and would love to make you a copy as a gift. Is that something you would be interested in?

Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have! If you'd like some background on fanbinding in general, or my work in particular, check out @renegadepublishing or my @imp-printed sideblog :)

Wow, thank you so much for this! I'm guessing this is off the table considering how far back this was lol, but please know that I gasped loud enough from excitement when I finally read this that I woke up a cat. This will teach me not to check my Tumblr regularly :/

Cat is over it, but this will now live for eternity in the group chat so thank you!

there needs to be more teenage Yunmeng Prodigies shenanigans in this fandom. every post that ends up with the ‘boys will be boys’ comment on this website needs to apply to them. I am not certain what the xianxia equivalent of climbing into a giant tire and rolling off downhill without regard for life nor limb would be, but I am certain Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng have tried it

[kindaquirky]

They do be fixing that boat

Writing a new Tim/Jay story that may need some user comments and though it’s be fun if people wanted their handles in the story! Reply/message and let me know!

Just found out my series has shown up on a couple rec lists (but no one will tell me where??), so I figured I'd post the link here as well

honorary titles in cql/mdzs by how feral they make me go

Hanguang-Jun (Light Bearing Lord): I am content. I am at Peace. I am possibly maybe starstruck. Mr Lan Wangji out here being called the Actual Bringer of Light and it is Absolutely True. Every junior of every sect calls him like he has personally made the sun shine and they’re right, Wei Wuxian and I concur. I’m not feeling even remotely feral. I am as serene as Hanguang-Jun himself.

Chifeng-Zun (Red Blade Master) and Sandu Shengshou (Skilled Wielder of Sandu/Thrice Bane Master): Logical. Sensible. Send a clear message. You know what to expect and that is that Nie Mingjue and Jiang Cheng Have Swords and they’re Pissed Off Enough to Use Them. Be scared for your life and please, please Do Not annoy them. I’m not going feral but they sure are. Good for them.

Lianfang-Zun (Lord of Hiding Fragrance/Subtle Fragrance): Makes sense in context but too on the nose. We get it. Jin Guangyao’s an Evil Mastermind who stumped even the smartest of cultivators. He’s Hiding Fragrances. I have no idea why he agreed to this but I can appreciate the twisted sense of poetry in this. Doesn’t really make me go feral, only because I’m confused why Literally No One suspected him of his crimes considering he pretty much spelled it out.

Gui Jiangjun (Ghost General): Homeboy was selling turnips and chilling with his fam in burial mounds while the cultivation world was naming him entirely out of his volition. It’s a cool title, very goth and sexy, and Wen Ning will only be called that if he reclaims it. We support Wen Ning’s rights in this house and He Is Not A Thing. I’m not quite feral yet but if anyone disagrees, it’s On Sight for them.

Huadan Shou (Core Melting Hand): Wen Zhuliu, my dude, if you weren’t partly responsible for the painful golden core situation, I would’ve been way more pleased with this. Again, sends a Clear Message and tells you that You Must Not Fuck With Him. I’m beginning to go feral and I don’t know if it’s because of my rage at the consequences of his actions or because this is actually a pretty powerful name to be called. Damn it.

Headshaker: Nie Huaisang 1000% planned this and I’m not even mad. My boy knew what he was doing and he Did It Right. The exact opposite energy of Jin Guangyao’s title as in he literally pointed to the other guy saying idk man ask him about it. Very iconic. Very gay. Very Funny when you explore the possibilities of 10 years of head shaking as a sect leader. I am feeling quite feral in a fun kind of way but not nearly as feral as Nie Huaisang himself is.

Yiling Laozu (Yiling Patriarch): OKAY. Sexy. Hot. Chaotic but Righteous. I may be biased but Wei Wuxian being called Yiling Laozu is quite possibly my favourite title because hell yeah he’s a protector of his people and he Will Fight anyone who fucks with them. And he will look Very Hot doing that with his goth outfits and sexy black smoke and haunting tunes. Ugh. I’m going Very Feral in the best, most ‘I’m in love with a necromancer’ way. Lan Wangji really stood no chance, did he.

Zewu-Jun (Brilliance Overgrowth Lord/Lord of Munificent Waters): I am In Pain. I am Screaming. I have not known a single moment of Peace since I found this out. Why. Why is Lan Xichen called that. He’s a Good Person. You could’ve called him Anything and THAT’S what you came up with?!?!! Literal translation Lord of Damp Overgrown Weeds??!!!??!!!!! I Don’t Care if it sounds better with context, I am FILLED with sheer murderous RAGE and I WILL lose my MIND. How did he NOT go on a rampage after this. How is the entire plot just not his villain origin story motivated by his fucking name. I am FULLY FERAL and NOTHING can stop me now. Lan Qiren I Am Coming For You.

a blue curtain is a damn blue curtain

“Wait,” Tim holds up a hand, eyes narrowed, “Stop. Start over. If you start there it makes me look like an idiot, when clearly you’re the one who’s crazy and like - weird. Roll it back to the beginning Mr. In-Medias-Res.”

Jason scowls, “If you don’t like how I tell it, then you tell it.”

“I’m not telling it because it’s embarrassing and I lived through it,” Tim says, “And I’m not going to actively give that kind of ammunition to Dick Grayson.”

When Zuko apologized to uncle Iroh in the tent cause he was so ashamed of his actions and what he’d done to the only person who unconditionally believed in his ability to do good >>>>>
