i dont know exactly how to articulate this in a way other people havent but everything is too fast now. 24/7 news cycle, online focuses that last for hours instead of months or years, songs written just so ten seconds can go viral. movies and books churned out to meet some nebulous income quota. idk. im motion sick

“Community has pulled off one the most patient easter egg: in one episode of each of the first three seasons, the word “Beetlejuice” was used off-handedly in a joke. If you’ve seen the movie Beetlejuice, the titular mischievous ghost would appear in the world of the living if anyone said his name three times. So, sure enough, on the third mention by a Community character, this guy appears in the background for exactly two seconds. They patiently waited three years to reach that punchline.“

Hi, I love you fic "of love and suffering", would you ever finish it. Thank you

Yes! I'm intending to see it through but if I get to a point where it's not possible, I'm at least going to post the outlines for the rest of the chapters so anyone still reading has closure

Do you have any plans to update "Of Love and Suffering"? I love that story so much and can't wait to see you where you take it ❤️

Yes! I’m horribly slow 😭 but I was just working on the next chapter. Hopefully it’s out soon. Thanks for reading!

We don’t even need a disney remake of Mulan. Look at this.

I would totally watch more Disney reboots if children from the actual ethnicities were cast in those movies.
