Works in Progress mostly, sometimes more complete works, thoughts on fandom, complaints about my dissertation, occasionally pontification on other topics including food, my Dude, & my cat. I'm also on ff.net and AO3. [Cait, early 30s, consummate midwesterner, historian, and cat-mom. Ich spreche nur ein bisschen Deutsch]

please put in the tags how many siblings you have and whether you’re a competitive person or not it’s for science
#0#Technically#My parents did worry I'd be weird as an only child and therefore encouraged me to play quite a bit with the neighborhood kids#Including the only child next door who's parents also feared he'd be a weird only child unless he interacted with other kids#So sometimes I tell people I have an older brother because it makes it a lot easier to explain stuff#Anyway back to the matter at hand#only child#Highly competitive#especially with or against myself

TIL that Gothic literature makes a distinction between “terror” and “horror.” Terror is the sense of dread and apprehension that precedes an experience, horror is the sense of revulsion after an experience.

It's so crazy how "Don't feed the trolls" was like the Motto of the internet & in forum culture of the 00s and early 10s and now you log onto a certain website and it's just an endless sea of people pouring gruel into the troll trough day in day out and no one seems to realize or care that their internet experience being a constant deluge of misery and bad faith discussion might in fact be their own fault
