lately i have been saying that this fandom just gets worse and worse by the day and honestly it has been. we all know that the lack of stranger things content is making people leave left and right.

everyone is entitled to their own opinions— that’s what should be noted here.

people have left this fandom because of anon hate, being called out for x y z when someone thinks they have dirt on them etc.

it’s fucking tiring.

we are all aware of the “groups” within the fandom and m what was popular last year during this time is no longer and vice versa.

however, shaming people for writing “bimbo” geared smut, only writing smut, or reblogging, commenting etc on smut only— is ridiculous.

block and move along. smut isn’t your thing? that’s totally fine, but shaming others for enjoying it but catering to your friends makes no sense, i’m sorry but ?! cmon.

is it frustrating to spend hours upon hours crafting a fic with words that sing to you our soul and made your own heart flutter just to watch it flop? of course it is. it’s downright frustrating.

but again, what was popular before, is not at the current time and that’s okay. things change and we adjust to it.

that being said, shy! innocent! reader that reads as minor coding (IN MY OPINION) is not okay.

i’m a mother and i have kids, reading verbiage that i’ve quite literally heard out of my own children’s mouths in a smut fic about a character we all love and adore— makes me physically ill.

there are minors on this app who lie about their age (shocking) but these types of fics are gearing towards them and that’s not okay.

DDLG fics in this fandom were also very popular at one time and still are. and do they have similar verbiage? at times? possibly, maybe, yes. it is extremely important to correctly label fics. and people who write DDLG are usually pretty good about it.

we have all made mistakes, fuck you all know i have— i am not perfect in any way shape or form. but this fandom, stranger things, means a lot to me and getting the fucking ick from it makes me feel disgusting.

white coding in fics should not be happening anymore.

plain and simple.

if you make a header —pls refrain from using only skinny, white, women to portray reader unless it is labeled that way.

doing so is alienating everyone who is not a skinny white woman, including but not limited to, POC.

we have all been there and made that mistake, me included—but you learn from it and change your ways. i promise you note count doesn’t go up bc you have molly mae’s dainty body sitting on the lap of on her rocker! bf that is eddie coded.

i have volunteered to make headers for people who struggle with doing so because i genuinely enjoy it. if you would like some help, dm me— i’d be happy to make one for you.

none of us are above learning and changing. we can all do better and should.

i’m around to discuss this in a positive way. if you’re sending hate anon.. peace and grease pal.

your weird friend,

ziggy

Hello, dear author! Thank you for answering my last question about your literary inspirations. :D I have another question for you today, because your brain is such a wonderful place to explore and learn more about. However, please don’t feel an obligation to answer- just having your writing and your voice in this world is enough for me. What stories and books do you especially love and recommend, aside from the Neopolitan Novels by Elena Ferrante, White Teeth by Zadie Smith, If I Had Your Face by Frances Cha, Fault Lines by Emily Itami, and Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki? Thank you so much, and I wish you a lovely day. Your works have changed many people, including myself, and have made our lives a more beautiful place. I truly appreciate and love you. <3

thank you so much, that's so kind! it's very hard to answer this question as I usually try to personalize my recommendations depending on what the other person wants to read, so as a random list off the top of my head: SUNDIAL by catriona ward, THE HACIENDA by isabel cañas, LOST ARK DREAMING by suyi davies okungbowa, THE SAINT OF BRIGHT DOORS by vajra chandrasekera, THE MINISTRY OF TIME by kaliane bradley, LONG LIVE EVIL by sarah rees brennan, I'M WAITING FOR YOU by kim bo-young, OUR SHARE OF NIGHT by mariana enriquez, SLOW DAYS, FAST COMPANY by eve babitz

!WIP!

 …Silence overtakes the room. Such the same eerie silence that reeks of dread, at its very essence so unnerving, seeing as the more it prolongs the less you wish for it to end. It creeps up on you, takes you in its cold, but strangely warming, arms and just before you know it, it has caught you by the throat, a grip so tight you feel your eyes might pop out. Yet your breaths speed up… 

    The human mind is frail, so frail that as soon as the sense of protection that racket brings is taken, drowning in still soundlessness, it falls in terror so horrific, that solely to fill that void, it cries and screams, begging for self-inflicted endless rest. 

  And so you silently plead for something, anything, as shadows slip in and out of vision. They breathe shivers down your nape, they cackle from across with oh so sickening grins and crooked teeth, threatening to swallow you whole… And then a human heart stops beating because silence, as well, has ceased…Furthermore as piercing as a hot stab though that very same so human heart you hear it - the sound of breaking glass…

I’ve not published anything in ages but I convinced myself to just get it out. Do me a solid and read it for me? Constructive criticism and kudos welcome.

I’d also love a beta!

"what are you doing over there, boy" a strange person walks up to him

"what does it look like I'm doing" he said, whilst looking down from the building rooftop.

"I was gonna say 'enjoying the scenery' but that doesn't seem right" he mocked

"I'm tired of everything, and everyone, why does bad stuff only happen to me" he said whilst sobbing

"oh" he smiles as he walks towards him and stares down "but that's a really long drop, isn't it? what's that, like 600ft? oof, that's gonna hurt"

"I know" he shrugged

"why don't we make a deal instead" he said smiling

"w-what deal"

"how about I give you any persons' body you desire for 42hours?"

"so what's the catch" he said overly alarmed

"I just want your body for the time being" he said while poking at his body

"what would you use it for"

"the specifics are of minimal significance" he said nonchalantly

"just spit it out already" he snapped

"how rude... well you need not be alarmed, I won't do anything much with it, it doesn't look like you could do much anyways" he paused "just take it that I'm desperate"

"alright then" extends his hand

"Wow, no sense of danger huh? I like you already" walking towards him "so who do you want to be? ha... let me take a guess, nnnnnn"

"how'd you kn-"

"it's a deal then" he shakes his hands."I'll visit you often to check on you :)"

"what's happening" starts getting dizzy

"don't be alarmed, the next time you wake up you'd be-" softly laughs "-shall I say, a new man"

*passes out and starts falling down the building*

"SHIT!! I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE PROBABLY TAKEN HIM AWAY FROM HERE BEFORE DOING THIS" he braces himself before he jumps "ughh... The things I do for people"

This post should have been done a long time ago but oh well

Hello~✨ My name is Marcel or Luca or Ryker you can use whatever you like. I'm a digital artist who only makes illustrations for now but my dream is to make comics and maybe a game someday but that's a very distant future. I also do fanarts mainly for 8:11 and Identity V but who knows, maybe there will be something else!! My biggest artistic inspirations are: my own life and therapy, z-t00n, 8:11, du-buk, Khonjin House, Smile for me, Oingo Boingo and Polkadot Cadaver but I like and take inspiration from many other things too!

IMPORTANT: Due to the nature of things I like and themes in my own work this blog is 18+!!! and I will block any minor I will catch following me!!!

Better list of things to look for to be sure if you really want to follow me or to know what to block in tags: sexual themes, alcoholism, gore, mentions of suicide and/or self harm, abuse of any kind, religious themes, cults, cannibalism, jokes about things mentioned here.

Please be respectful. Please don't assume things about me if you want to really know something just ask!! Please remember that I am disabled and I work slower and post less often than others.
