Here is a list of fun threads I've written here on Bluesky.

Hopefully this will be a decent way to find them all later, because threadfics are actually my favorite way to write fanfic.

Regardless of the age and state of completion, please always feel free to comment or react!

Feeling brief nostalgia for that time on the bird app when everyone was cooking up wild "straight boy Wei Ying" plots to torment Lan Zhan with.

And then I remembered Shen Yuan, who is like that except if it were somehow simultaneously deadly serious and transparently obvious the entire time.

When the discord asks for the recipe and I belatedly realize that what I gave them was instructions but not a single fixed measurement or cooking time for any of the ingredients...

I fully believe that following the instructions as written will produce a delicious result, but so did medieval cooks.

I WANT to like Crowd Control, but the editing on it is so clipped there's no room for the jokes to breathe or flow. I'm glad everyone in the crowd seems to be having fun, but I sure don't feel like I'm getting to experience any myself. So much of comedy is good timing, and this editing has none.

Most ordinary folx not trapped in the twisted machinations of publishing/bookselling DON'T KNOW THIS: a book MUST sell 3 times off the shelf to remain there. If not, it gets sent back.

Writers literally get ❌❌❌

Readers: if you're on the fence, buy the📗! Esp if it's a local/new/not famous author
Literally buying one copy of a book at your local indie bookstore can mean the difference in whether they buy future books from that author.

demisexual is just the funniest sexuality. jumpscare attraction. attraction that just shows up behind you suddenly in the middle of the woods. where did this come from? no clue. it's just there now. but only in certain circumstances.

From my course reading today...

Mark Twain is never fully comfortable to read, nor should it be comfortable to read some of this and that is very much part of the point, but sometimes he is nonetheless very funny and very true.

There is no way you can guess how the thread that ends in this instant classic begins.
The damned in hell are not more powerful for the fact that the fires do not consume them; it is part and parcel of their torment.

Any and every time Shen Yuan attributes a vision, emotion, or inclination to a hypothetical outsider, what he means (but doesn't admit he means) is that he is absolutely doing that exact thing BUT he wants whatever batshit thing he is doing to be Normal and Correct.
"people"

"people" are imagining all sorts of shocking scenarios between a young vulnerable shang qinghua and a domineering CEO mobei-jun

that's what "people" are thinking about

Back in the day, artists used to go study the paintings of earlier artists and make copies of them while learning to paint. This was not plagiarism, because the PROCESS of the copying was the point and it was inherently interpretative, AND because they didn't pretend their work was original.

I want art thats made by people, because i want to connect with people. I don't care if that art is made for personal reasons or for a coca cola commercial, i want to see art and think about the person who made it. How they got here. why they became an artist. What inspires them.
idk.

This does not seem to have been true for me, but I am overseas and had also turned off smart features already.

It's still worth checking your settings.
If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Man, rereading Mobei Jun's appearance after the New Extra really brings home just how much Airplane actually DID break his own worldbuilding and story for his favorite. This man strolled into the plot FIVE HUNDRED CHAPTERS EARLY, from all appearances just because Airplane was there and he got bored.

Rereading SVSSS to take some more notes, and hang on a second... What do you MEAN they HAVE Message/Sending (voice transferral spells) but never ever seem to use them?!

Why the fuck not?!

They could solve so many of these plot points if they just picked up the damn phone.

The delightful and troublesome thing about getting comments on my old WIPs is that it makes me reread my own work and go, "Wait, yeah... This is awesome, I totally want to read more of this! ...What do you mean I have to WRITE it?!"

It's a great cosmic joke that neurodivergence both runs in families and gets diagnosed based on parent reports. I was diagnosed at 30 because a man who has eaten potatoes every day for 57 years and a woman who collects loose buttons decided I was a perfectly normal child.

Me, first watching CQL in 2021: I hate Jiang Cheng. Why is he so bad at understanding cause & effect?!

Me, first reading MDZS in 2021: I no longer hate Jiang Cheng. I still don't much like him, but he makes a LOT more sense in this context!

Me, after fanfic: I love our angriest grape so much.

whenever i write shen yuan POV i always remind myself that if he's having a feeling no he isn't, and if he is it's probably because he's empathizing with an imaginary woman, and if not that then everyone would feel the same way so it's fine

WangXian AU where the Lan line is under a curse that their soul will be forever bound to that of the first person they kiss, that's where the myth that Lans love only once came from.

Lan Wangji doesn't know about the curse because it's not seen as a proper thing to talk about

This is exactly what I bring to the table.

The shape of the little guys as constructed people is fun to play with as jigsaw puzzle pieces, and I will defend a claim that doing so is also a form of analysis, but it is ALSO fun to look at why they are that shape to begin with and what it says, etc.
