30-something autistic queer. Probably talking about Our Flag Means Death. UK based (L'pool), she/her. This is mostly a fandom account about fandom stuff.
Promised a WIP today didn't I, and I'm nothing if not neurotically reliable, so here's a wee snippet of baby's first fic. In which Stede is massively overreacting, but to what? Find out...eventually.

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

Sherlock Holmes fandom would like a word.
just saw someone on tumblr describe HP as “the first fandom” like. I know you people are desperate to keep funding a transphobe bc the thought of reading any other book is too hard for you but this is housewives writing kirk/spock fanfic in carefully xerox’d fanzines erasure and I won’t stand for it

Told myself I'd get some writing done today, so naturally I'm painting the living room.

Thank you to all the OFMD fanfic writers out there keeping our crew alive and giving us content while we’re in the gravy basket.

Did you know that big studios monitor piracy? Don't you fucking dare pirate this shit. Do not hate watch through piracy. JK Rowling is a disgusting human being that funds and encourages the hurt, pain and death of my fellow trans peers.

Support media that actually deserves our time and money.

for some reason people CONTINUE to think ed's neurodivergence means he is extremely airheaded and ignorant but stede's neurodivergence makes him smarter. when its. literally the opposite in the show.

STOP. This is a selfie checkpoint. You must repost with a cute selfie to proceed.

Got an ad for a show called Daddy Issues before an episode of ofmd the other day, and you all need to know about it because I'm not being called out by the BBC on my own.

I feel like the last couple decades of "is representation good or not?" discourse missed more important questions of "how fragile is representation?", "what do we do when multiple industries eliminate it as an intentional move against us?" and "how can we sustain queer artists when shit goes south?"
"According to the report, [...]during the 2024-25 television season, queer characters increased across platforms by 4%, bringing the total to 489. However, the Thursday report found that 41% of those characters will not return." www.thewrap.com/glaad-where-...

The birding org I volunteer for has been looking for a voluntary regional coordinator in my area for ages, and I really wish someone would take it because I do NOT have time or energy and yet every time an email comes about it I'm tempted.

90 percent of good fic is written by people in thier 30s and 40s who have like two full time jobs and are juggling parent teacher conferences.
“you’re too old for fandom” is ridiculous. i only want to read fanfiction written by people old enough to know what the citrus scale is.

My aim is to have a WIP section to share next Wednesday (posting for accountability).
