#don't reblog with grammar corrections y'all
Explore tagged Tumblr posts
Text
When you get one of your posts reblogged by someone who's correcting your grammar in their reblog... For fuck's sake, this is what people mean when they use the term 'grammar nazi'. As an aspiring author myself, can I just say to all grammar nazis: People don't have perfect grammar all the time. Even authors don't, its why there are editors and even those fail sometimes (back in my Twilight days I heard the English copies had a shit ton of grammar mistakes). Even translators sometimes make spelling mistakes, I remember 'groen' (green), being mispelled in the Spiderwick translation I owned as a kid. And that's okay. It as sure can annoy you, but that's a you problem.
(as long as it isn't a mistake in published educational material, because depending on the mistake you can be educated the wrong way). Free content like a blog post, should never be reblogged with grammar corrections. That's horribly condescending behavior. Especially when it's not even a fanfic like this post was. Am I getting paid for perfect grammar? Nope, so why should I always correct myself all the time? I correct myself if I want to, and if I don't, then I don't. It's that simple. Try not to be so god damn triggered about people making grammar and spelling mistakes. Seriously, what's your problem? I literally have mentioned that it's behavior like this, why I quit writing fanfics as a teenager because grammar nazis would throw xenophobic remarks at me for not being a native English speaker. Why don't you guys learn that your attitude is totally a buzzkill for people who aren't as uptight as you? Most people don't care this much, so let it go!
#I hate grammar nazis#grammar nazis#don't reblog with grammar corrections y'all#it's so god damn rude#if you don't want to read imperfect grammar then go to the library instead of the internet#because over here people care even less about perfect grammar#considering most of us aren't actually paid to deliver good grammar#unlike the authors whose work you can pick from the library

Fic Reader Poll: Text Messages
Okay, another poll for y'all. I'm writing a fic with a lot of text message exchanges between two characters (details below poll).
As a reader, do you prefer that the text messages are written with the same proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar (SPAG) as the rest of the fic? Or do you prefer to see the writer's interpretation of a character's 'voice' with a realistic texting style, e.g. typos, abbreviations, missing SPAG?
Please don't just vote based on your headcanon for how your blorbos would text. Vote based on what you find most enjoyable to read.
For reference, and if anyone would like to share their opinion with me about my specific situation, the characters are a semi-AU Sam and Dean Winchester (they're not brothers but they're still hunters in the SPN universe). I headcanon Dean as being fairly loose with his texting, rapid-fire short messages, not bothered with much more SPAG than autocorrect does for him. He'll correct a typo if he notices it. For Sam, I see him as a step above that, longer single messages, proper capitalisation and more punctuation, but not fussed with perfection.
So that's how I've been writing it so far. But having said all that, I don't want the reader to struggle to actually read these exchanges, especially since there are many of them. Conundrum. 🤔
Feel free to reblog (it would be appreciated for a larger opinion pool!) in any fandom/pairing, as it's not fandom-specific, just reader-specific. For writers who also read, please consider what you prefer to read, not what you prefer to write (assuming those aren't the same).
Thanks for any input, all! 💖

🌊 Before you follow:
★ I'm quite sensitive and I get easily overwhelmed by stuff, so be careful on how you talk to me or I might misunderstood you.
★ my account isn't safe for younger users (12 to lower) as I MIGHT/WILL blog or reblog something mature: suggestive (though I don't usually like NSFW so it's going to be rare but I put a TW to it of course), I swear, I sometimes/rarely do gore art (it would be most likely be candy gore), etc. . . Though they're going to have content warning to it and censoring curse words.
★ My account is a safe place for LGBTQIA+ (since I'm in the community as well!)
★ My headcanons and redesigns are full of LGBTQIA+ and other diversity stuff so homophobes/transphobes and racist b🫧tches f🌊ck off! /srs
★ Use tone tags when talking to me (NOT forcing though) especially on jokes as I may not understand a thing to it.
★ I sometimes like to use "!" At the end of my sentence! But it doesn't always mean I'm yelling or screaming at you.

★ I'm a multi-fandom user so expect other fandoms not just BATMM (Blaze And The Monster Machines) blogs and reblogs. And also I post my OCs.

★ Also please don't dm me as it makes me off guard and get uncomfortable. /srs
★ If I unfollow you it's either: I accidentally unfollow you, you did something bad, you're not very active anymore, quitted, I don't like the blogs you make anymore. Which I know the last one sound icky to some but y'all can't just control me on who I follow and unfollow sometimes.
★ if I ever unblock you it's either because I'm giving you another chance or I forgot what you did. (Though I'll blocked you again if I got uncomfortable)

★ I'm quite picky at some things.
★ I may also post random sh🫧ts sometimes.
★ my English grammar can be sh🫧t sometimes so feel free to correct my spelling unless my spelling of a word is on purpose.
★ I may sometimes write in Filipino/Tagalog but it's rare because it's hard to write it down.

Last Update on the Sad Troll
I kept updating the post I'm reblogging because the situation kept changing, but I just wanted to update y'all and put this to a sort of rest!
The person who sent the asks as depicted in the post above?
They have been sending hateful, troll asks for 6 days now, totaling 50+ asks.
Really pathetic, isn't it? At least their no-life-ing of my blog is very amusing ^^.
I was going to make a post responding to most of the pertinent asks, but as they continued to send me asks for hours, I realized they just want to make me mad and get attention.
Out of curiosity, I turned off the anonymous option for my asks to see if they'd say anything. Unsurprisingly, the coward troll refrained from sending any more asks, when they'd been doing it daily.
Then after 2 days went by, they finally sent two laughable asks, one where they pretended to not be the troll, and the other where they sent gross pictures of gr///via and screenshots of a post saying that Japanese people have different political correctness than other places, trying to excuse gr///via's toxicity. They also essentially said "don't like, don't watch".
[One, I don't oppose gr///via because of "political correctness", I do it because it's objectively a toxic relationship.
Two, I love FT, and I don't love gr///via, but guess what? I'm allowed to watch it, enjoy it, and criticize it. If you don't have any criticisms, then you're not watching it closely enough because everything has flaws, and nothing is perfect.]
After so bravely sending these asks, they seemed to have immediately blocked me and changed their username, so that even my friend couldn't find them despite being logged out of their tumblr account.
Then I turned my anonymous back on for my followers, and I just knew that when I did, they would unblock me and crawl back into my inbox, and lo and behold, the troll is back, sending anonymous troll asks daily once more.
Here's a few fun facts about this troll:
She calls keeps calling herself "the queen of trolls".
She has admitted that her friend told her about me, so my suspicions seem to have been confirmed on the reason why this asker is attacking me.
She keeps insisting that she's not a Pro gr///vian fan.
She keeps saying haha you thought I was a bunch of Pros, or haha you thought I was a Pro myself, basically trying to insist that she "got me".
She keeps calling me a racist because I’m criticizing Hiro Mashima, who is of course Japanese.
She has called me the n-word.
All this, instead of making me upset, makes me feel sorry for this person.
You really don't have anything else to do with your life, Queen of Trolls? That is honestly sad, so you have my condolences. I hope this trolling gives you some sort of happiness.
You're actually so proud of this that you call yourself the queen of trolls? It's really unfortunate that you have nothing else in your life that gives you pride beyond harassing a real person on tumblr over a fictional character and/or because your friend told you to. I really hope you accomplish something someday that is a bit loftier than this. (I know you can do it! Do your best, buddy!)
You really think you fooled me? That's very funny, because even before I posted that first post, I could tell at the very least some of the asks were by the same person, because of you repeating yourself constantly, (for example, asking about my friend who runs a Graylu and Anti gr///via blog and thinking that you bullied her into deleting tumblr when she literally just blocked you lol) and also because of the terrible grammar. Those two things have been very consistent, so thanks for making it very obvious for me!
Also, the racist comment is quite frankly the most hysterical comment you’ve made, since I’m in fact Asian, but believe I’m racist if that makes you feel better!
All in all, I believe this is all the attention I'll give to them. I just wanted to update my followers on this situation and put the troll debacle to pasture.
To the troll, who undoubtedly stalks my page, salivating at the thought of me having a breakdown on tumblr or blowing my top at them, please continue to send your asks! Honestly, to be perfectly transparent with you, I share your asks with my friends, and we all have an amazing laugh thanks to you, so you're really doing me a favor. I look forward to them, and I look forward to the next ask you send me!
I hope this little bit of attention from little ol’ me gives you a thrill!
Also sorry to my followers who have to witness so much of the wrong kind of negativity on my blog. I do realize ignoring trolls is probably the right way to go about this because they want the attention and because they probably don’t mean the things they say, but I still wanted to address it.
Anyway, have an amazing day, everyone!
Life's way too short to be upset at trolls or to be a troll! :D
A Hilariously Low IQ Pro gr///vian Raid On My Blog
(The pictures make this post really long so I'll put them and my words below the "keep reading")
Oh my gosh guys 😂. I don’t look at tumblr for one second, and now I have a ton of hate asks!
This is legitimately hilarious!
Nothing like the toxic side of the Pro fandom shooting themselves in the foot by acting like actual toddlers over me disliking a fictional ship! ^^
But before I get to these funny asks, I have a post I’ve been working on that’ll set the stage for this—the prologue, if you will.
There’s a (very silly) reason I’ve been targeted, and it’s again so amusing.
I can’t wait to post it for y’all’s entertainment! Tumblr drama is always so interesting, isn’t it?
Have a wonderful day, everyone! Even the (specifically, not all) toxic Pros! I sure hope especially y’all can find some happiness outside of being big bad meanies on tumblr. (*´∀`*)
Edit: there’s a bunch of asks I’m getting as I type this that seem to be from the same disgruntled person lol. I think I’ll try to group those asks into one post because I feel like this person is trying to fill my blog with hate.
Edit 2: and if I just get duplicate hate asks (which I have been), I’ll probably just delete those. Not good content for me to keep responding to the same brain-dead message ^^!
Edit 3: change of plans: I’ll be screenshotting all the asks and making one mega post about it since it’s one person. Hope to post it soon!

Some of y'all need a little lesson on ain't v doesn't. And it ain't a bad thing, but there is a right and wrong way to use it. And Mammon does use "ain't" correctly.
First of all, ain't is a real word. It is grammatically correct. It's just informal. That's why you won't see it in educational settings usually or be taught it if english isn't your first language. But it's not incorrect or wrong to use it.
Secondly, it is a contraction. Just like don't, won't, shouldn't, isn't, can't, you're, etc. are contractions. And for the record, all contractions are considered informal. You should not use them in a thesis paper, CV, or other formal writing. However, there ain't anything wrong with using them in fictional prose, poetry, or when just chatting with people.
See what I did there?
It has a specific use though. It means:
Am not, are not (aren't), or is not (isn't) in present tense.
OR
Has not (hasn't) or have not (haven't) in present perfect tense.
So let's apply that.
If you're not replacing one of the above listed meanings, you are using it incorrectly.
Mammon, again, doesn't use it incorrectly. Don't do Mammon dirty like this, please. Mammon's main grammar faux pas is actually double negatives. An extension of his tsundere behavior perhaps? 🤔
Ain't does NOT mean does not/do not.
So here are some correct examples:
"I ain't stupid!" Mammon yelled.
"He ain't got nothin' on THE Great Mammon," Mammon said.
"They ain't had time to look into it yet," Mammon explained.
Here are some INCORRECT usages:
"He ain't have any grimm for me to borrow," Mammon whined.
"I ain't keep my treasure here where these losers can find it," Mammon said.
"They ain't have my favorite flavor in stock," he grumbled.
It also doesn't mean cannot/can't. That's cain't, but I don't think Mammon says that because I don't think he's supposed to sound authentically Southern American which isn't the only region or group that uses ain't. Also cain't isn't a real world the way ain't is, I'm fairly sure.
I hope this helps! Also while we are here: lemme means let me, gimme means give me, and gonna means going to. Have a pleasant day, and please reblog to end the madness 😊

— REQUEST GUIDE
Thania is here! Heyya ^.^
"So, i have the three most important things you need to know before sending a request to me. I'm glad if you want to read this. Please read until the end, okay! Thank you!"
The Most Important Rules
Please send the request with polite, humble, and positive words. Keep your attitude when request to me, because i didn't take your request if you send me a your request without those things
Please wait when you send a request to me. I'm a student and my life isn't about Tumblr everyday. I need the time to write your request. Also, because my English is not good enough—so i need time too for checking my writes (ex: there's grammar mistake or not) and i'm used to do that for three times before uploading my works.
Please understand, i have right to don't writes some request if i don't like the request (like the prompt or others). I won't forcing my self to write the things that i can't do and i don't like, it will make me feel lost confident and eventually the worst is writer's block
