i keep seeing people on tiktok complaining about untagged jaytim on ao3 as if it's a frequent problem for them like they're stumbling across the ship in fics that weren't tagged for it every other day or something. and like. as someone who reads a probably unhealthy amount of batfam fanfiction, I have literally never had that happen? with jaytim or any other combination of robin shipping? actually in all my years of reading on ao3 I feel like I've seen fics that weren't tagged for the ships in them maybe once or twice in any fandom.

like maybe you should read the tags a little more carefully if you're getting jump scared by a ship you don't like that often. or better yet use the search filters and exclude it! although let's be honest they're probably just lying about it to stir up drama around their least favorite ship

why do americans always talk about electoral politics like election day is literally tomorrow. they do this even if someone JUST got elected and therefore they wont even be able to vote anyone in and out for another 4 years. do yall ever notice how nobody else ever punctuates their regional politics posts with 'and remember to vote' unless the post started with the sentence 'election day is coming up in [location]' (and "coming up" is like "within the next two months" not "sometime in the next few years"). are you like not allowed to talk about politics without talking about voting. is there ever any time where you can respond to anything a political leader does using any method other than voting in the next election (which is sometimes several years away and therefore doesn't actually help current and ongoing problems)???? its like as soon as the election is over the campaign for the next one starts. genuinely how do you all live like that. isnt there laws preventing candidates and donors from campaigning too far in advance of an election?? and if there isnt. well that would explain some things tbh

I can know how bad my mental health is by how upset I get by stepping on a crack in the pavement

Hot take, apparently, but most 13th episodes are literally fine & normal & entertaining, and the characters are good, and the feels are felt, y'all are just mad that a show for tweens you fell in love with in the late 00s-early 10s isn't appeasing you the same way 10-15 years later

my favorite thing about being a Fallout fan is the fact that no matter what the vast majority of the conversation about the franchise is how much people hate it and are miserable about it and are angry at it, because i guess the idea that you just don't have to play or watch the new things if you don't like them is unfathomable. my second favorite thing about being a Fallout fan is Fallout 3.

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

hm. if you've sent me outfits and Don't want to be continuously tagged since many of them have multiple and will be spread out over separate posts, lemme know

[lumiereandcogsworth]

all The Crown fans love to do here is complain about The Crown and how inaccurate The Crown is and how disappointing The Crown is. maybe you should stop watching The Crown and just leave it alone. have you considered that it is not required of you to watch The Crown? do you know that you do not have to engage with The Crown?

So I'm normally not that into the idea of doing colourwork, but

I saw a very cool jumper with colourwork lemons

But at first I didn't notice that the shoulders go the One Way That Is Deeply Uncomfortable For Me (kinda shallow / \). So I couldn't get it

But now I'm thinking.. maybe I should knit them lemons for myself

Also there IS one stranded colourwork sweater in my plans

But if I'm to match the vibe of "4 lemons on the whole body", I'd need to figure out intarsia. And it's a bit scary, because the last time I tried making an intarsia swatch, that didn't end well... Though no. It ended WITH *A* well. Or a trench. Right along the colour change line. And now I don't even remember how I was doing that intarsia

...gotta try and find a good tutorial if I'd decide to do it. Which is hard these days because everyone and their knitting cat does videos instead. Maybe interweave has the pictures of how to intarsia???????

“think of the children!” no. you aren’t. the people in power couldn’t give two shits about the children. the people in power look away when it comes to genuine concerns about children the second it impedes upon their lifestyle, their beliefs.

and you know what it is that bothers them so? children wanting safety. children not wanting to live in fear of being murdered. children who want to be loved and accepted for who they are. children who are raised to be those kids you hear others complain about on social media because nobody was there to teach them better. they don’t know better because they quite literally can’t.

oh but it’s for the kids, right? protect the kids, right? turn a blind eye to death and discrimination and neglect, right? that’s how we’ll protect them, right?

Most people really don't seem to understand that friendship is a two-way street.

They expect you to wait on them hand and foot as they rant about and constantly pour on you either their issues or their passions and when you finally have something you'd like to talk about you get a "Man that sucks :/" or a "Cool" in return.

Find somebody who doesn't do that. Then you'll have your best friend.
