Apparently I have to do the poll again, since people keep misclicking.
There is no "see results" button. I know. It's on purpose.
Please do share!
If it's not applicable to you, don't vote, but maybe pass it along? :)
Thank you!

do you read all of the fics you post to your feed blog? do you have any favorites?
I can't really say I read any of them! I don't have much time for fanfiction these days, and when I do read SxF fic, usually I'm reading stuff that's focused on Fiona Frost. For fic recommendations I always recommend looking through my AO3 bookmarks; you can search through those like you would any fic on AO3 (filter by fandom, character, ship, etc) and I do mark the ones I think are genuinely standout as "Rec."
#asks answered#Anonymous#my senior year of college is keeping me really busy#so i don't read much fic#but i can tell you all about this fucking beef between composition scholar rebecca moore howard and tucker carlson#genuinely i was sitting in my common room reading something on my kindle#and i laughed and my suitemate was like “i love how you just laugh at academic articles”#and then i explained to her the BEEF (and she's a polisci major so she Gets It) and she was like no actually that's funny as hell

please tell me I have some writing studies followers who will find this as funny as I do
#okay the CONTEXT is that i'm currently drafting some stuff for my honors thesis which is about plagiarism#and one specific form of plagiarism is patchwriting which basically means#“changing it enough to avoid plagiarism detection software but not truly rephrasing it in your own words”#there's a more specific definition but generally speaking it's problematic less cuz of ethical issues#and more because it shows a student may not fully grasp what the source they're citing is saying#anyway. the reason why this is funny is cuz rebecca moore howard COINED THE TERM#it's okay tho she'd love and appreciate me and recognize that patchwriting can be an important developmental milestone#she's LITERALLY my mom#rambles#(also to be clear the reason why i don't want a more wordy description - or just a quote - is cuz this is for research not the report)#(part of a survey I want to conduct. so i can't assume that the people taking the survey will know what it is.)#(and i don't want to bore them. cuz even though i'm Literally surveying professors. they still might get bored.)#also to be clear part of the humor of this is that this comment is for my advisor#who i probably wouldnt say this to if not for the fact that she found the least formal annotation ive ever done in an annotated bibliograph#fucking HILARIOUS

sad reality of the fanfic-to-published work economy is that the weirdest people are willing to do it. that's why there's now hundreds of shitty no plot cishet hate-to-love enemies-to-lovers books that are ex reylo fanfic. and it's not even good. that's because the people who wrote book-quality steve/bucky and kirk/spock fic are too normal to think to themselves "i should get this porn published". they're too busy working in local government offices

Post canon teacher Deku, now that he's a hero with his fancy new suit as well, can train his students like All Might did for him!
They're in for a rude awakening aren't they? 🤣
#frankly i think even post-kamino all might would have kept doing physical demonstrations with his students#a man like him leveraging technique to throw shouji to the floor is NOT impossible and seeing it would be very effective pedagogy#mha#comic

I think when you view people who “pass” as cishet as not being oppressed you’re betraying the fact that you don’t view the things they do to us psychologically as part of our oppression for some reason
#you also have to acknowledge that part of oppression against queer people is things they Also do to themselves#cishet people police each other's gender. cishet people impose amatonormativity#cishet people distance each each other from each other based on arbitrary standards and that distance causes hurt#cishet people don't let each other do (x) and force each other to do (y)#and bc there are people who pass as cishet but Aren't they get caught in the crossfire#but also cishet people are MEANT to be in that crossfire. they are MEANT to undergo that oppression#and it DOES hurt them.

im sure theres a word denoting the divide btwn what you believe as a citizen of civic society and what you believe as an animal with anger synapses. as a civic citizen i do not believe in the death penalty nor do i think anyone deserves to die for being stupid on twitter. as an ape,
