📓anon here. one thing I've noticed recently is that there are a lot of male swifties these days, who use Taylor swift to further their sexism. like there was this video of this black woman talking about not liking Taylor Swift and her music. Rather than letting her just have her own opinion, this man started trying to call her out on her so-called misogyny and started making claims that people only complain about taylor swift.

a lot of male swifties use liking taylor swift as a safeguard to their own sexism. like as if liking taylor swift immediately makes you this feminist king and if anyone says anything about her it gives you the right to be an asshole. and it's especially common among white men on the internet, who attack women of colour.

imagine liking taylor swift to prove yourself as a #feminist (esp as a white cishet man doing jt for swiftie p*ssy) oh we are in the pop culture dark ages right now aren’t we…

swifties always use feminism as a deflection for their racism when they harass black women and women of color who critique her. im sure white ppl are critiqued but not the point or level black ppl especially women are. so many gay men are straight up MISOGYNISTIC AS FUCK but think bc theyre gay theyre not??? mental gymnastics.

tldr (white) men pretending to like the most milquetoast white female celeb to get away with harassing women of color is part of this larger trend right now of reframing/disguising racism, misogyny, etc. as justified and progressive. swifties doing this are echoing taylor’s behavior of branding herself this way. disgusted but not surprised

An Announcement:

I wanted to set the record straight before the damn tabloids get ahold of it: yes, Venkman and Dana hit a rocky patch and broke things off again.

No, she was not sleeping with me behind Peter’s back. No, she did not make advances toward me. And even if she had, no, I wouldn’t have declined the offer because I’m secretly in a homosexual relationship with Ray. That alleged “photo evidence” was taken wildly out of context.

I mean…I would’ve declined any advances from Dana anyway. But not for that particular reason. …Not that she would’ve made advances, because we’re strictly friends and she’s not the type to cheat.

…

Point being, you should not believe any of the asinine hearsay that’s bound to be all over every faux scandal-laden rag in New York.

Took, my beloved!! Alright y'all, buckle the fuck up, this shit gone be long

1. do you know how you want the story to end when you start, or are you just stumbling through the figurative wilderness hoping to find a road?

For some fics, yes, I do know how they're going to end when they start, but most times we're just kinda...figuring it out as we go. And sometimes that's the fun part because when just writing, you can sometimes come up with shit better than when you outlined/planned it

3. on a scale of 1-10 how much do you enjoy incorporating romance into the average story?

I enjoy it. So like...an 8-9? Most of my stories are romance anyways so it's not that hard for me

5. have you ever made a playlist about something you were writing as an elaborate means to procrastinate when you could have been actually writing and if yes drop a link, son

Nope. I don't make playlists for my fics

16. where is your favorite place to write?

Well, I write anywhere, but my bed is always a good place. Things just tend to flow there

24. on average, how much writing do you get done in a day?

Depends on the fic. Sometimes I can get pages done, sometimes nothing. But on average, I'd say...1.5-2k? Sometimes more? Like I said, just depends

28. handwritten notes or typed notes?

Typed. My hands cramp after writing for too long. And it's just easier to type if there's a lot of information

30. most inspirational quote you’ve ever read or heard that’s still important to you.

"You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you know" ~ A.A Milne

My parents say it to me a lot whenever I have imposter syndrome/am doubting myself. It helps a lot

37. when creating characters, what comes first: appearance, backstory, motivation, personality, something else?

Now, I don't create OC's, but personality, I think would come first for me. I always like characters who have personalities that don't match their appearance (and personalities are more interesting to work with anyways because they're shaped by backstory, motivation, etc.)

39. are you an avid reader?

I am! When I'm not reading fanfiction and I want to get away from the computer, I'll pick up a book. Sometimes if I'm really into one, I can crush one in a day/couple of hours. I've always been a voracious reader

44. any writing advice you want to share?

Just write what you enjoy. You're not writing to please anyone else but yourself (and maybe a few loyal readers). So like...don't write what's trendy or popular, write what makes you happy. It makes the fic much more enjoyable for you and for your readers

58. what is the last thing that a fic made you google when you were writing it?

Hmm...I think for my fic The Tiger is Out, I had to google/duckduckgo the name of the poem the fic was inspired by because I couldn't remember it

72. what do you do if a scene gets too serious?

Oh boy, take a break. There are a lot of scenes in the Killer and Healer rewrite that make me cry/make my heart hurt so I have to take a break from writing it/do something else for a little bit to get a breather. I mean, I can push through (which I've done before) but you feel a little empty afterwards. Or I'll go talk with my discord chat and tell them what just happened to get my mind off the scene

10. How do you stay motivated to finish what you’ve started?

Ooo, great question. Most times, if a story has gripped me by the throat, I'll keep working on it till it's completed. As for multi-chapters, sometimes I fall outta hyperfixation with them and I don't wanna work on them anymore, but then I also don't wanna leave them unfinished indefinitely (which is fine, of course but not for me) so I finish them (and I tend to feel better after I finish them, sometimes because I'm genuinely happy it's finished or sometimes I've relieved that it's over)

15. OCs or no OCs?

For me, no OCs, just because I don't need them in my stories. But more the merrier for others, y'all have fun creating your little guys

16. Do you use sentence starters, writing prompts and/or fandom headcanons for your fanfics?

Most of my fics started out as writing prompts, tbh. My Killer and Healer fics now are mostly my own ideas/aus...unless i'm feeling really uninspired. But I do still use sentence starters or other ideas to kind of spark something, if again, my brain can't figure out what it wants to write

30. What writing software do you use?

I use Microsoft Word and it's the only writing software I will ever use

32. Past or present tense?

Past, for the most part. Sometimes my headcanons will be in present but my fics are mainly in past

38. Do you partake in any fanfic/writing events? (Big bangs, zines, NaNoWriMo, etc?)

I do not, actually. I did NaNoWriMo in like...8th grade but nothing since

44. Does fanart of your fanfic exist?

It does! For my fic Violence Is Never the Answer...Except When It Is, @a-single-log-bridge drew Chen Yuzhi with a katana! You can see the fanart here! (With this I am giving y'all permission to draw my fics, please god, draw my fics, I beg)

3. What is that one scene that you’ve always wanted to write but can’t be arsed to write all of the set-up and context it would need? (consider this permission to write it and/or share it anyway)

Honestly, have no idea

4. Share a sentence or paragraph from your writing that you’re really proud of (explain why, if you like)

Gonna copy my scene from my other ask that I got about this question, hang on

From my fic My One and Only (Killer and Healer mignon/vampire au)

         “Jiang Yuelou” he breathed before he quickly knelt before him and cupped his face in his hands.          “Jiang Yuelou” he whispered.  Jiang Yuelou, however, didn’t answer, causing Chen Yuzhi to whimper before he reached out and carefully pulled him into his arms, hugging him gently but tightly.          “I’m sorry.  Jiang Yuelou, I’m so sorry.  I lied…everything that I said was a lie.  I’m sorry.  I love you.  I really, really love you.  So please…please don’t leave me” he begged as he clung to him and buried his face in his neck.          “Don’t leave me.  Please don’t leave me” he pleaded.  Jiang Yuelou, however, didn’t answer again, causing Chen Yuzhi to let out another whimper before he hugged him tighter.          “Please” he whispered, just as two strong, but gentle, arms came around him and hugged him back.          “I won’t” a weak voice whispered, causing Chen Yuzhi to gasp and lift his head out of Jiang Yuelou’s neck as he looked at him with wide eyes.          “Jiang Yuelou” he breathed as Jiang Yuelou slowly lifted his head and smiled at him.          “Chen Yuzhi” he replied, causing Chen Yuzhi to let out a sob before he buried his face in his shoulder and hugged him tightly, making him smile weakly as he gave him a tight squeeze in return.          “I’m here.  I’m here.  I’m not going anywhere” he whispered. 

I just really like this scene because while Chen Yuzhi does like Jiang Yuelou throughout the fic, he's never like...expressed/reciprocated his feelings to Jiang Yuelou, who has. And now in this moment, when he's afraid Jiang Yuelou is going to die, he confesses that he loves him. And who doesn't love that trope, huh?

7. What do you think are the characteristics of your personal writing style? Would others agree?

Um...someone's always gonna get whumped, I know that much. Also, descriptions/dialogue...I've always been told I'm good at those...as well as staying in character/characters feel like how they do in canon, no matter the au. So I guess that? Idk (I'm never good about answering questions about my personal writing style because I don't pay attention to that sort of thing)

9. Are you more of a drabble or a longfic kind of writer? Pantser or plotter? Do you wish you were the other?

Longfic. Always longfic, especially when it comes to Killer and Healer. I mean, look at my fucking word count on ao3. Do I look like a drabble writer to you? (No offense to anyone who does drabbles, just could not be me)

Most times, I am a pantser. I've learned that plotting kind of stifles my creativity. The only time "plotting" has worked for me is figuring out what's going to happen in each chapter of my fic The Demon and the Angel.

And no, I do not. I like writing my long fics and I like figuring stuff out on the go. That's what makes writing fun to me

15. Which is harder: titles or summaries (or tags)?

They're each hard in their own way, but I guess personally titles. Summaries for me are easy because I just take like a line/passage out of my fic and use that as the summary. Tags can be tricky too because I wanna make sure I tag everything that I think is in my fic but sometimes I can't tag everything (though I do try)

16. Tried anything new with your writing lately? (style, POV, genre, fandom?)

At some point, I'm going to try a sci-fi fic, which I've never done before, so that'll be interesting. It's inspired by the Netflix Movie Rebel Moon and I think it'll be fun once I get around to it...and my brain stops plaguing me with other au ideas

18. Do any of your stories have alternative versions? (plotlines that you abandoned, AUs of your own work, different characterisations?) Tell us about them.

My fic Monster Like Me had a completely different version before I decided I liked the current version better....but even getting to that version it took 3 rewrites, one complete deletion of the fic and original outline and a whole new rewrite to get to what it is today. And I have to say I like this version so much better than what it was originally. Did you know this fic took me almost a fucking month to write? That's the longest a oneshot has ever taken me. Ever

20. Tell us the meta about your writing that you really want to ramble to people about (symbolism you’ve included, character or relationship development that you love, hidden references, callbacks or clues for future scenes?)

Oh...I don't really have a lot of meta, at least not with the fic I'm currently working on. But with my Rebel Moon au, the idea actually came to me on my 7 hour plane ride home from Hawaii. I couldn't sleep at all nor did I play on my computer nor did I watch any movies...I just listened to music the entire time. And for most of the time, I listened to

on repeat. If you wanna read the rest of the story, I actually answered about the au over here

21. What other medium do you think your story would work well as? (film, webcomic, animated series?)

Well, I write most of my stories like they're a movie/drama, so movie/drama would work, because I see my writing (or any writing for that matter) like it's a movie playing in my head

23. What’s the story idea you’ve had in your head for the longest?

A Killer and Healer Howl's Moving Castle au. I've always loved Howl's Moving Castle and I think it would work great as a K&H au, but I just don't know a) which couple to use because it could work both ways and b) when I'm ever going to have time to write it (because I am plagued with other au ideas all the damn time)

25. What part of writing is the most fun?

Oh man, talking about fic ideas with your friends. Just gushing about how scenes would work/play out, who characters would be (if I'm inspiring a fic off of a drama/anime/movie/manga), what certain scenes will entail...stuff like that. That shit is fun. I mean, writing is fun too because you're taking what's in your brain and putting it on paper, but like...just brainstorming with your friends is fun

[trudemaethien]

📓

from this meme

okay so I’m not sure if anyone else has done the Dominoes Survive trope quite like this, but I like to imagine if they all made it Cody and Rex would have had a brief spat over who had dibs on the vod’ike squad which they then solved by divvying them up.

Echo and Fives become Rex’s like in canon, but Hevy, Cutup, and Droidbait put on gold paint. My imaginings consist mostly of comm messages, sort of chatlog/epistolary stuff, mission reports, etc. What it’d be like to have their brothers still, but also to have figuratively lost them just when the squad finally started to gel.

Angst version consists of who dies when, one by one until the last domino standing falls. 🥺

I think the whole woman who doesn't support women has a special place in heaven. Thing that Taylor uses to avoid criticism is so funny to me. I think it's especially because it's women protect other women, not support. Like I'm not going to support a woman who cheats, but i will protect her if necessary. The way her entire fandom uses that one phrase to bash every other woman ever it too funny. Even swiftness I've met irl have said this shit, and those words coming out of a poc is so funny.

Plus, Taylor herself is a massive hypocrite cause she herself doesn't support women who don't fit with her look

- 📓 (I'm the one who said the thing about open tabs with a thesaurus and relatable white women things )

“women protect women” true to some extent! we don’t protect abusers. but i get what you mean! swifties are the biggest misogynists i know ironically. they hate all women except taylor swift. very strange behavior to witness if youre not part of the brainwashed cult. and taylor doesn’t support women who don’t “fit her look” yuppp that’s why everyone assumes swifties are white, taylor caters to a certain look and its not for brown people!

Okay, uh, I guess, here I go?

Ah, so I haven't been active in writing because I'm continuously tired as fuck with work and shit, but I have had an idea for a fic I wanted to write.

I'll be honest, I started writing it at three in the morning after drinking like fourteen cups of coffee, but, I'll try type it out.

The fiction idea I had was basically, 'Oh, what if a really small guy became a goalie in today's NHL? And became the NHL's most loveable big hitter?'

I thought it was a good idea at the time, but it's been sitting in my Ao3 drafts for about a week and a half now.

But, I'll try expand the idea I had out of courtesy.

It consists of 34 NHL teams, it includes all the ones from the 23-24 season, along with the Utah HC as well as a new team I had created to fill in spot 34 (because I already miss the Yoyes, fuck off) and they're named the Quebec Owls(I'm still trying to figure out a better name).

The story itself consists of players from the 23-24 season, as well as Utah's roster, and the roster I had created for the Owls, most of which I'll make using a name generator(I can't name 20 names off the top of my head, sorry mate).

It consists of the protagonist, little 5'8", hundred and eighty pounds Julian 'Jules/Fubsy(Fubby, affectionately)' Bourreau, picked for the new Owls, and he, being the size he was, was picked on by opposing teams but otherwise, he was a really good goalie- flexible, quick reflexes, speed, but best of all, he could fight his own battles. He was a goalie who could hit as hard as a 6'2" defence man, as he had grown up with teams with boys his age, but twice as big, so he quickly learned to fight for himself.

Anyway, that's the story for now, I guess.
