The coolest thing happened to me. @may-i-have-loops posted her art of Olivia texting Eddie on her couch to a Discord server and someone cool decided to read my fanfics because of it. And then when we were randomly in a Voice Chat, I mentioned Olivia and they were like, "OMG Olivia? Olivia Chambers? I read those fics yesterday!"
I understand that tall men are our POV characters, but surely being like a foot taller than everyone around them would have some occasional consequences
Every time I see that G--gle phone photoshop commercial my heart is filled with infinite sadness, like, yeah it's cool you can have a good family photo, it's cool you can do that, but god, there is something to be said for the honesty of a family photo where you're blinking, or crying, or have ugly wrinkles.
What is too unsightly for you? Would you swipe-click-replace out the image of my cousin crying on our Florida trip family reunion photo? Would you remove the plastic snake I have clenched in my grip, which I still have to this day? Would you scoff at the wrinkles around our eyes and the strands of hair on our faces as we squint into the wind, the day before the massive storm? Would I remember it if I didn't have these reminders, if the picture was perfect and clean, all children in a row with perfect gleaming white tombstone tooth smiles? No tears. No plastic snake.
