Well... what can I say :|

#my art #jabbernaty #fantasy romance #romantasy #It's half past 2am #It's the only time I would be brave enough to include this little photo and my romantasy complains xD #there's a lot of tropes I don't like in this kind of books and a lot of them align with your dislikes you left under my previous post #thank you for sharing btw!#also #there are fated mates on the list and I also write a story where soulmates exist but hear me out #✨it's different✨#I'm serious #I don't like this trope so I wanted to change things about it xD #anyway... hope it makes sense #oh and the drawing doesn't depict anyone particular #it's just that the characters often look pretty similar #also this is not to be mean #I also like some of those characters

'ao3 needs a like and dislike button'

what you need, my algorithm-rotten minded friend, is a grip

#ao3 #archive of our own #what.do.you.MEAN #how do these takes still find me #HOW #'but I only want to read the good stuff' THAT MEANS DIFFERENT THINGS TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE #THERE ARE HIDDEN GEMS YOU WONT EVEN FIND #also you know what you TRULY want? fics recs it's called fic recs but hey cant have that if you dont read THE FUCKING FICS first #imagine thinking fanworks are uniquely for your consumption and products to be ranked on a scale #ANYWAY it just boggles the mind #mine

big fan of stories that, while undoubtedly being about the power of friendship, acknowledge that the power of incredible violence is just as important

the love was there. the love changed everything. the crowbar helped also

slow down for your disabled friends. thats like a bare minimum kindness that we shouldnt have to ask for. i love that youre so quirky and walking fast is a cool personality trait to you and all that but i bet you can count your physically disabled friends on less than one hand

#in a perfect world the move im gay meme would be about being fat or having a mobility aid and people just standing in your way in public #my bemoanings #debated posting this but itd be nice to have some solidarity where my mobility aid users at who have not a lot of good outside friends #also if youre a friend of mine who is worried that you might be the person in the comic im gonna be real #MULTIPLE ppl have said this exact thing to me and id rather you just slow down next time. dont come to me asking for forgiveness or smth #also straight up the person in this comic i havent seen for years because they were mean to me anyways

the scariest thing about the generative AI thing is how quickly people have accepted it as an indefinite, irrevocable part of their reality. people have genuinely convinced themselves that ChatGPT is the only solution to most tasks - tasks they did with their own brain without any large effort two years ago. like you know damn well all of us used to write emails ourselves why are we pretending like this is an impossible task to do with your own two hands. what's with the fucking. AI revisionism. i feel like i am going insane.

#also the amount of people that tell me our studies are impossible without AI....what do you mean.....i do it everyday..... what do you mean

[guy who doesnt watch shows voice] yeah ive been meaning to watch that show

#spitblaze says things #i mean i do. but my issue is that i play/watch/read things at a snails pace #and have a bad habit of starting something and never finishing it #so i end up limiting myself #also also adhd doesnt like it when i have to give one thing my undivided attention if its not taking up as much processing power #as something like a video game #doin numbers

(also feel free in the tags to clarify Why you made the choice you made!! :0c)

#polls #tumblr polls #For me I think the top ones would be the House. The Money. or the Friend Group. But I ultimately might would go for the house #JUST becuase it would be my Dream House which means it would already meet mostly all of my specifications #and what I might be looking for. which would save a lot of time searching or customizing/rennovating.#Also because I could use that as a way to leave the US lol.. like .. if I get to choose my dream location.. couldnt I just choose some othe #country?? But I wonder how that works. Can you legally 100% have full ownership of a property in a country yet not be a citizen of that #country?? Would you show up and be like 'erm.. i own this house.. so i shall now live in it' and theyd be like 'uh no. you cant live here #despite owning the house. leave.' ??#So I think the initial process of 1. scraping together funds to actually MOVE myself and my most valuable belongings physically #TO another country. and 2. figuring out how to STAY in that country . might end up being difficult.. BUT. if I could just work that #part of things out then.. dream house?? security for once in my life?? stability?? :0 #Though the $1mil is enticing it's also like.. I feel .. with the way housing prices are now... that's not much???#it's a lot I guess if you plan on like.. investing half the money and staying in an apartment for 5 years while you grow your wealth #or something. but if you're a 'I Need Stability NOW' ready to settle down person who would be most interested in owning a property rather #than nice clothes or a car or whatever other investments you could make then.. eh..?? It seems like unless you're okay with living in #a small town or kind of far away from the city - even some SMALL houses in majorly populated areas in the US will be like #$600.000 - $900.000 or something. like that would be MOST of my money. Which I know you could just pay partially and make #payments on it but idk.. in the option of just outright owning the house it seems like it'd end up being cheaper.#Plus I would want to own it fully asap because I'd be afraid of losing it somehow otherwise. like it being taken for medical bills or #something. which I thought was supposed to be - not IMPOSSIBLE - slightly more complicated legally if you actually have #paid off the house in full. I guess the issue then would be utilities and property tax and such. But I feel like thats overcome-able??#Like I could just stipulate that my Dream House has a little furnished addition or something and then find someone #with money and be like 'Look you can live in this extremely nice area with amazing ameneties and updated everything and ALL you have #to do is give me money to cover the utilities and property tax.'' or something like that. Like the little furnished addition is nicer #than the actual house. they have their own pool and spa and movie room or something and Ill also cook all their meals for them #or whatever (how luxurious it would be depeneds on how high the property tax actually is/how much I would need to entice them into #why it's a good deal for them to pay it for me lol). idk... something like that.. ANYWAY #I asked a few people I know though and one of them answered they'd rather have a romantic partner. the other one said they'd like #to be able to choose someone to die lol.. So I'm curious what people value the most

booktok did ruin a lot of romance novels bc of the demand for instant gratification but culturally it is kind of a slay that so many young women are just reading smut and masturbating all day #respect

#women Need To know that they can come. for the betterment of society #and i mean that #also a bit funny to hear men get mad about women being ‘addicted to porn’

“This thing is legally dubious and therefore technically unenforceable.” Is not a “useless liberal gotcha” it’s how legalism works in this country. Tying up stupidly worded EOs in court is the quickest way to keep them from being implemented. It is the definition of “doing something.” But it doesn’t usually involve much tweeting so of course a certain type of leftist feels obligated to mock it.

#challenging an EO in court keeps it from being implemented for a very long time and that’s a good thing #not only does it *not get implemented* for usually at least a year as it gets appealed over and over again #it also distracts conservative resources from going full steam ahead because they have to dedicate resources to defending their bullshit in #and the dumber their bullshit is the longer it takes to defend and the less they can get done #this is materially good so yes saying ‘this EO is poorly worded and can be interpreted to mean that all people are now female’#is a valid point to make

bro i LOVE indigenous fusion music i love it when indigenous people take traditional practices and language and apply them in new cool ways i love the slow decay and decolonisation of the modern music industry

#but also !!!!!!! indigenous people who make traditional music and release it !!!!! just as cool !!! equally as valid !!!!!!!!!!! indigenous #people who just release in english/the main language of their country are also very cool !!!!!! more love and focus on the art of #indigenous ppl !!!!!!!!#anyway i have been on a big Inuit pop/indie fusion kick lately #i've also been meaning to do a deep dive into the Blak (indigenous australian) music scene #anyway ! :3 #music #words of wyrm

i think the worst thing in the world is seeing two characters with something weird as hell going on between them and you think to urself "wow i love the weird as hell thing these characters have going on between them" and you open archiveofourown.org and find out everyone else thinks they would actually be in a very normal romantic relationship

#MANY SUCH CASES #Icarus is talking #edit bc this is getting notes i mean this in a toxic way but ALSO an aromantic way. that is also deeply important.
