#but as usual

[thatswhatsushesaid]

like. has there been an influx of fandom people from other platforms recently or something? i feel like people who have been here for a while know it's bad etiquette to drop character hate in the general tags for any given fandom (even if some people do it anyway), but every so often it's like people rediscover tumblr and start shitting up the tags with their bad faith commentary or character hate, and we have to do this all over again

don't tag your character hate guys. it's rude.

El WiWi! Thank you @artsyunderstudy for the tag. I just re-read The Hunger Games after I finished The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes last week and I am gutted. I got really into this series again, since I am following a class on social and political philosophy and it's wild.

Last week I posted something from Just Some Guy and @you-remind-me-of-the-babe and @bookish-bogwitch wondered whose POV it is. At this point I am not sure who knows of my boy Matty Chris D., but it was my boy Matty Chris D., full name Matt Christopher Davis, or also known as MCD. Just Some Guy is Matt's full 8 years at Watford as Simon and Baz's classmate. Aka, it's Snowbaz, from a 3rd person POV of a character who couldn't care less about them. They're more of a nuisance to him.

Since it's completely different from what the fuck Simon and Baz had going on, it gives me some room to add some things to the WOM that was just never important for the plot of Carry On:

I get a job in miss Possibelf’s office, which consists of cleaning and ordering. John decides to work out on the grounds. Leslie and Luis decide to work as kitmen for the football team. Ryan cares for the plants. Arnold helps in the kitchens. Scott also gets an office job, but at the Minotaur’s office. Sam is from a rich family (not an Old one, mind you!) and doesn’t see the need to work. “Do you know if Simon Snow got a job?” Arnold wonders one day. He’s staring at something and when I follow his gaze, I see the usual trio: Simon Snow, Penelope Bunce, and to my dismay, Agatha Wellbelove. (Yes, I am still not over Agatha.) “Dunno, don’t care,” Sam says. “He’s too busy trailing some bunnies, or something,” Luis says. “Hares,” John corrects him, “The Six Hares.” “So, does he have a job?” I ask. John shakes his head. “Makes sense,” Arnold says, “He’s so caught up in the Chosen One shit, I bet he and his friends don’t even know that Watford has jobs!”

Yeah, they probably don't. Y'all can thank @cutestkilla for this again. Matty's job will come back to haunt him.

JACKIEEE!! It’s finished finally!!! I can’t believe it 😩 I don’t particularly like it but it’s not awful either.

I read it through to make adjustments, sending it to my lovely native friend to beta read it and correct my mistakes that don’t make any sense for a native speaker 🙈

ITS 2,9K words 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 probs will go up to 3K 🤯🤯 IM KINDA IMPRESSED WITH MYSELF 😌😌

WAAAAAA IM SO EXCITED!!!!! 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 i’m going to love it, i can feel it already <33

oooo that’s such a smart thing to do tho!!! wish i did that more… it’s so often that i read back on my fics and just go “??? what does this even mean??????” 😶 also this is so nerdy and not at all what you asked for lol but i realized recently that ‘one of your hands’ is singular and not plural (like ofc i know that it’s ONE hand but since there’s an S in the end, my brain has always used the plural form of the other words in those sentences), so now i have to change like all of my fics because i write “one of your hands ARE” instead of “one of your hands is” 🙃🙃

2.9k def is impressive!! good job love 🤭🤭 it’s gonna be a good long read! i can’t wait 🥰🥰🥰

the reason most people don’t hc the danganronpa antags (the trio of Pathetic Men specifically btw) as aroace is bc they are busy shipping the protag x antag ships. but actually i think that the way the antags show attraction in the context of these ships is what makes them aroace; the way they develop feelings is non-conventional in an aroace way and therefore they belong on the spectrum. in this essay i will

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"

Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.

i propose that instead of pride month, we have queer year (queer people are treated like actual people all year long)
