Fanfic writing is 50% actually writing and 50% staring at the screen whispering ‘how do words work again’?

10% googling “synonyms for said”

15% contemplating your life choices

20% changing one sentence 37 times and then changing it back

25% “research” (aka wikipedia rabbit hole until 4am)

30% crying because the scene was better in your head

"why did you stop writing your story!!! never stop writing!!!!!!!!!!!" well you see the character had to drive one mile to a new location and the sentence "she got into the car" was quite simply my undoing

Damn, I guess rich, classy older woman and poor, sick younger woman with a Past are a thing

Damn I can only make 12, I guess that'll have to do for one day (yes I have had medication)

not to make this a competition of who is the most well-regarded clown in clowntown but I'll just say that MY life-wrecking queerbait of choice (bering and wells) might have come with your bog standard manipulation and disdain from the showrunners but I know for a FACT that jaime murray and joanne kelly were so fucking on our side. not just because of how they played things up on camera but also bc they have never fucking shut up about how much they wanted their characters to lez out. that's real #allyship

Everytime I see something gay in a tv show and I say to myself ‘wow that might be the gayest thing thats ever happened on tv!’ I have to remind myself that the actual gayest thing that has ever happened on television was the time on Xena Warrior Princess that Xena got Sappho to write Gabrielle a poem for her birthday and they used Sappho’s actual poem.

Which means that in the Xena universe, one of Sappho’s most famous remaining poems was one dedicated to Gabrielle from Xena.

And that’s pretty fucking gay.

I love the idea of Murderbot setting up its little security consulting business and advertising is like "Hey want some real security? Hire a rogue SecUnit. What's my rate? Unmarked bills. How much? I dunno, haven't thought that far. Gimme gimme, I wanna patrol your compound and rescue you from danger."
