Genuinely don't know what it's called but there's a particular way of violating reality that doesn't work. For example, I am willing to accept an omegaverse university AU of nearly any fandom you care to name (except, for some reason, Sherlock, because I have an inexplicable hatred for unilock). However, a lot of Star Wars university AUs specifically fail on this aspect: they make Anakin an engineering PhD student and Obi-Wan something like literature or classics, and then they make Anakin his TA or GA.

You can't do that. Absolutely not. Anakin is unqualified for that and a university would not do it in any case. A university would literally hire a junior or senior undergraduate workstudy student to do as much of that work as possible first. They would do NOTHING other than do that and make the prof do all his own grading.

Is there a name for "I will accept [wild fantasy premise] but not [ordinary wrong thing]?" Please tell me there's a name for this. Probably someone who studies lit will know? I'm a systems person I don't know from lit theory just like Anakin

What they don't tell you about writing is that as you write, you discover scenes and entire plots that you hadn't accounted for that need to be written. So you can spend two hours writing and editing only to realise you're further away from the finish line than you thought you were when you started

See that heap of barren space rock, Orbulox? That used to be the most beautiful planet in the cosmos -- back then, they called it Earth. From this far away, its oceans would have made it look like a shiny blue marble. Between its vast seas, there were vibrant green continents, teeming with all sorts of life. The primitive form of my species used to live there, they were known as "humans." They inhabited every inch of the planet, from the hottest deserts to the coldest tundras, forming pluralities of wonderful, unique cultures. It was a peaceful, harmonious existence up until the horrors of the 21st century.

The repressive, backwards era of the early 21st century reached its apex in Galactic Year 2027, when the despicable chieftain of the most powerful nation launched an attack against a rival culture, ultimately initiating the terminal spiral that obliterated all of the lush forests and deep blue oceans. The most tragic part of Earth's story is that this conflict, this terror -- it was all for the control of archaic, nearly-depleted energy resources, despite an effectively infinite amount of energy being available through contemporary solar and nuclear technology. Unthinkable weapons were unleashed between the nations, and most life on Earth had perished during those dreadful years.

From the ashes, the greatest minds of the remaining humans came together, tirelessly working to find a way to save humankind from ever-looming extinction. Those final years on dying Earth, they were the very brightest of its entire history; the shackles of hatred had finally been cast away, and the repression of the 21st century had been brought to an end. Earth had returned to its former harmonious state. All conflicts had ceased, and humans were allowed to have sex with dogs again. Regardless of who their ancestors were or which continent they came from, all of humanity cooperated to develop the colony-ship that ultimately preserved the human species and established contact with the Transgalactic Federation. In the end, it was not Earth that lived on -- but its legacy of resilience in the face overwhelming odds.

Green eyes shouldn’t actually be considered an eye color. It’s just not common enough, it’s a VERY SMALL percentage of the population, 1-2%. Green eyes are also caused by an irregular mutation. Most people have blue or brown eyes, so those are the two eye colors.

All the “green eyes” positivity is actually a bad thing, by the way. Having green eyes is linked to higher rates of retinal melanoma. You’re celebrating something dangerous that can cause suffering.

And besides, most people with “green eyes” lean closer to blue or brown anyways. They should just make up their minds and be brown eyed or blue eyed. And if it’s too hard to tell, they should get corrective surgery (because green eyes are dangerous, and associated with more difficult medical care!) or at the least wear contacts so they don’t confuse people. But also they should be required to

I hate to sound like this, but green eyes are a far more recent development than blue eyes in the mutagenic history of humans. So humans weren’t created to have green eyes.

And hazel eyes? Those are just a variant of brown eyes—come on, they’re far closer to brown than green. They just have a couple greenish traits. And there’s no way there’s that many green eyed people, or a wide variety of eye colors… It’s just not natural.

I don’t have a problem with green eyed people, they didn’t ask to be born that way—but there’s just too few of them for it to be an actual eye color. We don’t need all this “green eye positivity” or putting green eyes in media. The internet is making people delude themselves into thinking it’s more common than it really is.

Once when I was a kid my dad told me to “stop being a you-know-what”. And we’d done the whole song and dance enough times that I knew he meant “bitch”, so I told him: That’s cheating. You know what you mean, and I know what you mean- you’re just stepping around it so you can pretend you’re on the high ground. So if you’re going to call me a bitch, at least have the balls to actually say it.

And it’s been about fifteen years since then but I’m just now figuring out that that’s the same feeling I get hearing shit like “grape” and “unalive”.

If your audience knows what you mean, you might as well actually say it. Otherwise you’re just fucking hiding
