Yap to me about Dandy's World next gen stuff.

I love next-gens (Canon characters have kids either biologically or adoption or some kind of in between) SO SO SO MUCH but i can't find any for dandy's world-

I DON'T CARE IF YOU HAVE TO MAKE ONE UP ON THE SPOT I JUST WANT TO HEAR ABOUT NEXT-GEN IDEAS!!!Making fan kids is SO incredibly fun because of the simple fact that it's basically an excuse to do a fusion well also having your own spice to it!

It's also the perfect way to make an OC have a deep personal connection with Canon characters. In the case of Dandy's world the connection is even better to pretty much everyone because even if there's a certain Toon that isn't the parent to the kid, all the toons are SO close to each other that the kid would most likely be familiar with them anyways!

And if you don't like making OCS but do appreciate au's and head cannons for Canon characters....

GIVE ME HEAD CANNONS ON HOW THE TOONS WOULD BE PARENTS, HOW HAPPY THEY WOULD BE TO HAVE KIDS IN THEIR LIFE AGAIN AFTER SO MANY YEARS, HOW MUCH THEY'VE MISSED GETTING TO SEE THE GENUINE HAPPINESS OF A KID LEARNING SOMETHING FOR THE FIRST TIME, THE SLIGHT ENVY THEY FEEL BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT FOR SOME UNAPPLICABLE REASON THESE KIDS GET TO GROW UP AND HAVE A CHILDHOOD THAT THEY NEVER GOT TO HAVE, WHILE ALSO HAVING GUILT ABOUT THE FACT THAT THESE KIDS ARE ISOLATED FROM ANY CONTACT WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD AND THAT THEY WILL NEVER HAVE A NORMAL CHILDHOOD NO MATTER HOW DESPERATELY THEY WANT THEM TO AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-

Can you believe I'm having to make this meme even after successfully finishing up taxes and applying to job

[inkskinned]

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

My biggest tip for fanfic writers is this: if you get a character's mannerisms and speech pattern down, you can make them do pretty much whatever you want and it'll feel in character.

Logic: Characters, just like real people, are mallable. There is typically very little that's so truly, heinously out of character that you absolutely cannot make it work under any circumstance. In addition, most fans are also willing to accept characterization stretches if it makes the fic work. Yeah, we all know the villain and the hero wouldn't cuddle for warmth in canon. But if they did do that, how would they do it?

What counts is often not so much 'would the character do this?' and more 'if the character did do this, how would they do it?' If you get 'how' part right, your readers will probably be willing to buy the rest, because it will still feel like their favourite character. But if it doesn't feel like the character anymore, why are they even reading the fic?

Worry less about whether a character would do something, and more about how they'd sound while doing it.

Ok so, I just remembered how people in the comments of a tiktok video were being assholes, and I want to rant now :3

The video showed two wheelchair users at a train(?), who had just arrived to their stop to find nobody was there with a ramp so they could leave the train. One of them blocked the door so it wouldn't close, and this lasted for 15 minutes. The train was stopped for said 15 minutes. There was a button by the door, that said that it'd contact the driver when pressed. It didn't. People offered to go find the driver, and they came back with the news that there were no people in the platform to put the ramp. In the end, passengers had to go out, and place the ramp themselves, before the train could carry on. The wheelchair users had warned they were coming, and asked to have the ramp put there so they could get down. The platform turned out to have workers, they all just ran away because they'd never encountered the situation in which they needed to do this simple task.

Because of the workers' negligence, the train was forced to stop for 15 minutes.

Everyone's comments?

"Why did they block the doors and stop the train? So selfish" Selfish were workers who refused to do their job.

"What if someone had needed to get to their stop urgently? They shouldn't have stopped the train" It wasn't the disabled people's fault, it was the workers who were negligent.

"Why didn't they just wheel themselves down those steps?" They shouldn't have to risk their (expensive) chairs just because people didn't do what they were paid to do.

"If I had been in that train I would've been pissed, how dare you stop it" And you probably wouldn't have even thought about fixing the problem yourself, would you?

"Entitled assholes" Ok I'll leave you stranded in a train with everyone who could help you get down outright refusing to. Let's see who's an entitled asshole now.

If someone fights for accessibility, as much as it might be a bother for you, you do not have the right to be mad at them. If someone fights for accessibility, it is exclusively the fault of a world catered exclusively for able-bodied people.

So next time you think, "hey the consequences of these disabled people fighting for their rights bother me", instead of blaming them for this, help them solve the issue. This way, next time they will not have to fight at all.

Able bodied people, go out and fight for a fucking accessible world if you're not an asshole.

Here’s my take on the whole audio books vs. reading:

Oral tradition of storytelling predates written ones by millennias, and honestly, which one you like is just a personal preference.

The actual difference is

when listening, you have no idea how to write characters’ names

when reading, you have no idea how to pronounce characters’ names

hope this helps!

something that drives me insane on a relatively regular basis as a body jewelry understander is talking to people who have sensitive skin who are like "oh well I just can't wear any earrings without my ears getting inflamed" and I say "well what have you tried" and they say "well I've tried sterling silver and I've tried gold..." and it's like. ok. I don't know how gold and sterling somehow got spun by the jewelry industry as being especially good for sensitive skin but whenever I'm like "well have you tried implant grade titanium" they're always like "no....... but I've tried sterling silver... and it didn't work ..." like. I don't know how this narrative about sterling silver somehow got so strong but when they put pins in your fucking legs when you snap your leg in half are those pins made of sterling silver or are they made of implant grade titanium or surgical steel????????? HELLO. HI. YOU MIGHT BENEFIT FROM TRYING IMPLANT GRADE TITANIUM I AM JUST SAYING
