#do not read this as Jasmine should have been with Sammy instead of Shawn. I believe they'd be a poly ship

mod millie are there any submissions you wish you could’ve posted but didn’t for whatever reason (blog guidelines, too generic, already done, etc)?
I've gotten requests for characters with certain disabilities, but they either [accidentally!] use ableist language while describing it or really outdated and harmful terms and it bums me out.... cuz... it makes me want to yknow. Resubmit it with the 'correct' or at least modern language? Seeing people refer to Mike& as having MPD makes me want to shrivel like a prune. We don't call it that anymore, especially not for a character who'd be born what, like 2010?
Some I like but they're just so long. I have to read all of these guys, just in case I noticed you accidentally dropped a slur and the home address to my mother in the middle of your ask. I got the diagnosed 'noia and it's in full swing every time I see an inbox message.
Sometimes I get ones with interesting ideas, but the message is so littered with strong language (not slurs just awkward to read about 16 year olds) or more mature content that I put them in the backburner in my inbox until I just. Forget them. If I feel like the show would get flack from the normal crowd for having that kind of character, I tend to be like... maybe a different show would suit them (I promise I'm not a prude but sometimes I'm like... I'm too old for this kinda comedy...)
I get a lot of requests for lesbian characters who "think they're just friends" ala Katie and Sadie, but unfortunately 1. everyone knows this and 2. it's not original posting the 4th time. However if I got requests like "we need characters who think they're just friends like Jasmine and SAMMY, while one of them is in a [het] relationship going nowhere", that's new, that's something to work with. There's plenty of "girlbestfriends" we can project the lesbian beams at for future characters, not just Katie and Sadie.
