#venting in this blog as it has less than 100 followers but#it makes me so sad to see some corners of the tolkien fandom feel like#they have to resort to AI “art” to depict their characters#ive observed some used to pay for loads of commissions and now its all AI#i get that its free and that people would rather not draw if they feel they dont have the talent for it#its a chore for me too sometimes i get it!!#and then they post it on various art and fic sites and im like#shaking them by their shoulders pleading for them to stop#if you need to use it for help with character design when your hand isnt skilled enough to like#siiighhh i get that ok fine#but then just use it as a reference and try your hand at it#i complain sometimes when im doing art but it really is a thing of beauty and inner peace when you can make something with#your own hand#even if its bad to some peoples eyes! but then you gain the valuable skill of blocking out the haters

Honestly im not really worried abt tumblr going down because ive already migrated most of my social interactions to discord after nearly completely leaving twitter. if it goes down ill just start sharing my art and fics directly with my friends, and posting where applicable. maybe ill finally look into neocities. but if im being honest, i dont think tumblr is dying anytime soon, because this happened with twitter a million times and its still happening, and as long as we have adblocker and xkit or some other extension to make the layout palatable on here its not like there's going to be some mass exodus of users. but with the recent changes made to the site over the last year and the various horrible decisions being made by staff consistently over the last few years, i can absolutely understand why this website is dwindling

i always love when people are surprised that not only is the danny phantom phandom still around, but we're extremely active and are ranked in the top 15 most popular fandoms on this site.
like yes while we haven't gotten any new content in the better part of two decades, we still have an active year-round events calendar, we highly encourage and engage in crossovers with other media, we have phandom accepted non-canon characters with backstories, we've developed various opposite-of-canon AU's and HC's like the corpse au or the dual obsession au and have created almost entire ecosystems of content in these niches, we've delved into the physics and science of many of the canon materials, we value writing just as much as we value art, we're open to debate and friendly banter about different canon/phanon ideas, we've fully fleshed out various "hinted at" canon ideas like cores and given them "rules" that are widely accepted among phanon, etc etc.
at this point we've just fully embraced death of the author. like cool, thank you nickelodeon for giving us this world, we're just gonna take it and do our own thing with it for the next, say, 17 or so years. we'll get back to you in a few decades with some notes. u can take it or leave it, we don't really care. you know where to find us ✌️

Hello!
I have updated my About and Fics pages, to reflect the changes I want to make!
In the past few weeks, I have been taking notice that I’ve been forcing myself to keep active a lot of things I just... don’t really feel anymore. A few months ago, I already decided to stop roleplaying, and closed my roleplay blogs.
More recently, I already started being less active on Tumblr, and on that side, I’m still going to not be active all that much. I am likely to still reblog from times to times on my personal side blog, and make little posts here if I really want to share a meta or thoughts or a fun thing. Plus, it is still a good place to receive messages, as AO3 doesn’t have private messaging. It does have comments, but I feel some people might prefer a message here rather than a comment, depending what they want to ask or say.
I might not really post anymore about updates on my fics, or they’ll be quick posts. For new fics, it might be quick posts too, or proper posts as I was doing.
All in all, in term of social medias, I’m using my twitter solely to retweet arts, my personal tumblr sideblog is for occasional reblogs, this fic blog is just to have a way to make meta/hc posts if I want to and share when I update/make new fics if I want to. I have a pillowfort, but I kept forgetting it, or not feeling like making posts on it, so its pretty much sleeping for now, and might just, get some posts to promote my own content, and maybe be poked sometimes to like other people content.
The reason for that is again, that I realized I just don’t really feel social medias anymore, and there are very, very few reasons that makes me keep them. And none of them need demand activity out of me, or its very small activity. Which is something that works out for me, because the other thing I realized is that I was just... having too much on my hands.
This is why soon, I will be putting all my WIP in hiatus, and very few ones will be fully stopped. The only exception will be Shadows Symphonie, and the upcoming No one else but you, multi chap version.
Some will eventually be updated, I’m only taking a break for Meet me Halfway to the End and Assassin’s Light, and then all the others on hiatus are a mixed bag on how likely I feel I will update them, but their common line is that I will look to write them more than halfway or write them fully, before I start updating them again.
The ones that will be closed, due to various reasons that more or less are about it would demand too much out of me and I need to put my energy elsewhere first are: Different yet alike, Hellish Chronicles, Broken Chain, Fated Chain, Freedom of Love, Future we choose, Rise of the Walker.
EDIT: the two crossed out ones are going to be indefinite hiatus rather than full out closed, deciding for these was hard, when I wrote this post I had tentatively decided to close them, but in the end I could eventually see myself write for them, so indefinite hiatus it is!
However, do note all WIPs (except Shadows Symphonie) will be getting a bonus that will summarize what the plot is intended to be!
While it isn’t quite what I ever thought it would mean, my wish to never leave a story unfinished still exist, and it’s a compromise that I hope will works for the majority of you, but even if it won’t be the same as a written story, I couldn’t and wouldn’t hiatus or close fics without giving closure to anyone that wants it!
So to give a summary of the changes!
Activity will be very low on all social medias I have
Twitter is 99% retweet of Wangxian/MDZS arts
Fic blog is mostly for occasional meta/hc and wanting to share when I update or post new fics
Personal sideblog is for occasional reblog
Pillowfort is pretty much dormant for now, might just have occasional post to promote my own content
All WIPs except Shadows Symphonie will go into hiatus with a few I will outright stop writing
However they will also all have a bonus that summarize the plot I have/had intended for them
The idea for most if not all hiatus fics is that I will work on them when I can, and only start posting again when I have a few chapters in advance at earliest, and more than halfway of it otherwise, if not all of it
This way of writing fics might also become my new norm, I might only post fics from now on, when I have written at the very least a few chapters in advance, if not at least halfway of it!
I am truly grateful for everyone who has followed me, here or on AO3 or both, and anywhere else, for the patience, for the interest, and it isn’t a goodbye, that’s for sure!
But I needed to makes changes, to stop forcing myself, to stop not being honest with myself, and I want to be able to write for the fics I actually want to write for, and most of all, I want to write my original content, I want my life to feel good, and for that, I needed to simplify everywhere I can, and be much more gentler with myself, to accept to let go of certain things, and put other things as secondary.
You might be here for my fics, or myself, and you’ll still see my fics, and I’m still around, if mostly through my fics, or seeing me retweet things, and occasional posts; though of course, my IM and inbox remains open!
However, I would feel deeply grateful and happy, if you see this post, and take the time to check what I write as original content. Or just bookmark my site for later, another time, because I’m the first to know you can want to check some things, but you need to file it somewhere as “to check later”. But the reason I say this is, this is my truest passion, and where I truly want to focus myself. There’s a tumblr and a twitter for my original content, and my writer twitter especially might be more active. And everything is free to read, as a personal choice, and while mostly writing fantasy (in various settings), I have some other things, including half-psychology half-spiritual thoughts sharing.
So all that remains is whether or not you might find something you like to read, and the best I can do, is simply to offer you check for yourself!
Again, I’m truly grateful for each follower and reader I have, and I’ll still be around, I’ll still be writing~!

Miraculous ladybug is on my list of shows to watch. There’s no shame. One of my best friends loves that show and has been recommending it to me to help me with French for years.
I think i asked another friend of mine for a list of her favorite telenovelas but do you know of a site to watch them with subtitles that’s free?
And I’m just drowning in school work but I have no motivation to do anything ☹️ Im looking forward to reading your series over my two day thanksgiving break 💕 I’ve been so busy lately so it’s nice to have a multi chapter fic to look forward to. How’s school for you bubz? Ah I can’t believe we’re almost done. Any plans after graduation? For me I’m hoping for any kind of job related to my major.
I don't really know any sites to watch telenovelas, sorry :/ I just watch them on tv on Univision and other spanish channels but idk if you can even display english subtitles for spanish content (?). You can look up original spanish series on Netflix and other streaming platforms though! Or you can watch a show you've already seen but switch to the spanish dub if it's available and that'll work too bc you already have a sense of what's going on.
I'm sorry to hear you're drowning in school work :(
It's the absolute worst and I relate entirely. I knew I was fated to be miserable after yesterday's classes and, sure enough, now I'm booked solid for the remainder of the semester :/ So I know how you feel, bub. But we'll get through it :) It helps if you remind yourself of any previous hurdles you've jumped over. And it's our last year, so find comfort in that as well! If you're struggling with motivation keep all that in mind and look back to all the things you've made/accomplished or redirect your energy into something else and then come back to what you were doing. It's very draining and unhealthy for you to push yourself through a single thing when you're not fully invested in doing it or you're growing more and more upset by continuing to work on it.
As for post-graduation plans... I honestly don't know haha. I love design and art but I think I'll most likely be leaving it as one of various hustles, you know? This last year has been hell (mostly bc research is one of my least favorite things to do, it stresses me out A LOT) and I feel like I need to replenish my love for my major if I want it to be my main thing, if that makes sense 😔.
