#just a thing

I found lines for this in my old files, felt like doing something with them.

He’s still one of my favorite characters in almost all continuities but the IDW one is my real fav, I guess I have a thing for revolutionists and idealists and my cat is named after him…

please consider a whumpee who can never get dry

maybe they work on a ship or in a job related to the water, or maybe they just live in a climate that’s always wet and rainy. whatever the case, make sure that it’s impossible for them to ever get fully dry, or warm, or comfortable. Make sure the damp chill clings to their bones, and no amount of blankets or time in bed can chase away the deep cold in their core.

oh, and if you’re feeling especially cruel, add a stiff breeze that blows straight through them.

took an edible, got high (still high), and decided to try and find roller coaster tycoon on steam and ended up in the reviews section and yippee ki-gay i hit the fucking jackpot

Like this very honest (and earnestly sweet at first) self critique:

Or what about this wonderful pro/con list of more expensive game options:

This person right here is a master of sound and acoustics, an appreciator of auditory Borgia.

There were some reviews from tech people as well who gave super helpful advice. I just thought that this dude had the best description I've ever heard for annoying little bugs on the computer. I want this person to write newspaper headlines.

And this one?

Shakespeare.

And here's even more brutal honesty from people who understand just how feral we were as kids and probably continue to be as adults. Every one of us was apparently living childhood with the gumption and drive of a pack of raccoons stuck in a dumpster. Our only goals were anarchy and OSHA violations.

And when they quote the game, it reads like an ominous short sci-fi apocalyptic horror story.

But my favorite probably would be this incredible set of reviews that Steam dropped right beside one another that absolutely describe the game in what I can only describe as a visual masterpiece.

Something a ton of fanfic authors don't realize, especially the new ones, is that timing is EVERYTHING. Getting a story out one month after a show or movie releases very nearly guarantees more attention for that writer, sometimes in the long term for their stories within the fandom.

This isn't me saying you should be writing faster or that you're doomed for low readership. Not at all.

What I am saying is that judging a story by its hits is sometimes not the way to go.

And I'm not going to call out any titles or names because I'm not that type of person, but I will say is that I just read two stories within the Stranger Things fandom.

The first had something like 3k notes in total for about 11 chapters. It was stunning. Gorgeous. Written with so much care and consideration. The plot was well thought out and the ending had me in tears. It was published on the cusp of the New Year.

And then I went and looked at a story on the opposite end of that spectrum, written just about one month after the finale of the season. This one has about 17k notes for a one shot, adding up to roughly 1.5k hits per thousand words. The plot was fine. Nothing too insane or wild. It was fairly safe as far as stories go. But my God. This story was absolutely riddled in grammar mistakes, poor characterization, and spelling errors. And yet, were you to look up stories by hits, this one would be shown as the more popular one.

And that's the thing.

Popular doesn't mean better.

Do some stories get popular and have amazing characterization and plot? Absolutely! I've got a few that I reread, and I'm not so humble that I can't say I haven't written something I've absolutely adored and was honored to see it go to go up in notes. But if something I write doesn't skyrocket with hits, it's also not the worst thing ever.

Does it suck to go unnoticed? Totally. Is it nice to get attention for your art? That's a trick question. Of course it fucking is. It's the pinnacle of all things good.

But don't stake your talent on how popular your story becomes. Learn. Grow. Continue to hone your craft. And just remember-

Popular does not equal good.

not saying why as i don't wanna jinx it but if anyone could send good vibes for me tomorrow that'd be great

based on all gameplay I've seen, Tears of the Kingdom is not ADHD friendly. It's far too easy to be distracted from the main like of progression.

do you know what has never made sense to me?

Myth stone - Peridot, a beautiful green stone, ranging usually from a pale olive color all the way to a bright vibrant almost emeraldy color.

Myth school colors - Royal blue and yellow?????

I've seen this a few times and I just gotta ask because I'm curious.

To anyone who says this is just a way to prop up my fragile ego, how dare you make completely accurate assumptions about my motives.
