They expect us to hold their hurt feelings as more pressing than our very lives. They’re not unclear about Ross killing Good. They’re trying to “but technically” their way into publicly saying she deserved to die like that.
Sorry, what? The federal “investigation” into ICE’s killing of an American is investigating the *victim*?

@indirect.io identified that my favorite romantic trope isn’t necessarily enemies to lovers, but idiots to lovers (which enemies to lovers often are). characters who are the only ones unaware of their tension with each other, who have no idea they’ve been flirting with each other for months, etc

your very existence is troubling, enraging, and distracting as hell for some of the shittiest people on earth so no, i’m afraid you may not kill yourself rn

posting fanfic online anonymously in a fanfic community is filling a hole in my heart that was previously left when i stopped using deviant art

i started posting my fanfic, on an account completely disconnected to all my other online handles. it’s been fun and freeing!

Research is the MAGIC TIME on any project where I get to go have fun and explore. And 100% what you are looking for are the surprising and amazing details and textures that you could never make up
This is such a misunderstanding of why writers, artists, and designers do research to begin with, which is to find something unexpected, not capture the average or find reference for the default.

And, as always, the biggest misapprehension: We don’t want to NOT do this part. It’s fun to learn shit
Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?

Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.

one of my goals for the year was to change my relationship to making & enjoy the process instead of being so results-focused. so, i tried to make being creative feel as self-indulgent as possible.

turns out the form of being creative that feels the most self-indulgent for me is: writing fanfic
