Oscar’s penalty leaving him next to Carlos on the grid feels like when a teacher thinks two students have a crush on each other and “randomly assigns seats”

hoping and begging that fabian in the bard classes this year and what we’ve seen of terpsichore so far means that we’ll get to see more of fabian dealing with some of his issues this season. i think brennan tried to set it up sophomore year after fabian’s No Good Very Bad Day in Leviathan, but all of the bad kids reacted SO poorly to fabian’s actual emotional state after that, that it never happened. i want a deeper dive into fabian and i want him to seek help <3 that’s all.

Generally I’d say that yes, TotK is better than Botw which is amazing—except one thing.

No it’s not botw’s bombs (rip bombs I love you) no it’s not the Champion abilities (loved those too)

…it’s the trees. The goddam trees don’t attack you in Botw. The first time it happened in TotK it scared the shit out of me. Now I just hate it.

Because listen. Sometimes I just want to enjoy the pretty nature in Zelda, okay? I want to pick mushrooms in the forest and look for honey combs in the rustling quiet. I want to camp by a lonely lake decorated with fireflies. I want to catch fish where no one can bother me.

In the Depths? Sure. Send the creepy trees. Fits the vibe, I get it. But not on the surface. I want pick my fucking apples in peace, alright?

APROPOS -

Bitch how dare you look at the lesson plan YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN TEACHING THE ENTIRE TIME and go “oh I don’t think they’re capable” in four days of class time these students have RISEN TO THE FUCKING OCCASION - and they’ve done it with excitement and pride.

They can absolutely do it - they’ve already done it.

I am so fucking appalled that your attitude could have poisoned this fucking group of students - they are so excited and eager about being here and you were really just not going to teach them things that YOU KNOW are built into the curriculum.

YO - fuckin - LO honey - get thee gone.

Larian really does have its favorites, huh. Everyone else can just choke. Wyll gets the worst of it, for sure. Especially from fandom, but what’s wild to me is why they would even create characters they don’t even seem to like?? Gale is regularly mocked and treated like the butt of the joke in the text. And his sacrifice is supposed to be the “best ending”. Fuck right off, Larian.

You made these guys and then hate them so much you ignore them and/or treat them like shit. Do better

Sleepy Hollow creators, y’all will never know peace and I’m so serious!

Andre’s ice cream is not magic and he’s a poser bitch.

If it was magic it would have realized Marinette was destined for Chat noir in elation despite it not being who he thought it was

One thing about social anxiety is that you will do things that are “extra” to avoid people and people will point that shit out 😭��� “you coulda just asked me” 😭 no, I couldn’t. You’re scary

Following so many people reading or rereading RotE is amazing but it’s meant that they all get to Fools Fate eventually and I have to keep experiencing my least favorite ending of any book ever over and over again it is destroying my sanity

Thinking about that one time in middle shcool we where given two papers on why adhd was fake and a scam and caused by video games and one about how adhd is real you fucking idiots. And we had to write an essay based of the evidence In one of the papers but I had lost two of the papers the adhd is real one and one of the adhd is fake ones. Anyways so because of a symptom of my adhd I had to write an essay on why adhd is fake. I got dignosed a year later.

Who wants to hear the story of why if someone asks me to make stuff for them I no longer do it for free?

not to be controversial bc I know this is like…not in line with shifting opinions on fanfic comment culture but if there’s a glaring typo in my work I will NOT be offended by pointing it out. if ao3 fucks up the formatting…I will also not be offended by having this pointed out…

‘looking forward to the next update’ and ‘I hope you update soon!’ are different vibes than a demand, and should be read in good faith because a reader is finding their way to tell you how much they love it. I will not be mad at this.

‘I don’t usually like this ship but this fic made me feel something’ is also incredibly high praise. I’m not going to get mad at this.

even ‘I love this fic but I’m curious about why you made [x] choice’ is just another way a reader is engaging in and putting thought into your work.

I just feel like a lot of authors take any comment that’s not perfectly articulated glowing praise in the exact manner they’re hoping to receive it in bad faith.

fic engagement has been dropping across the board over the last several years, and yes it’s frustrating but it isn’t as though I can’t see how it happens. comment anxiety can be a real thing. the last thing anyone wants to do is offend an author they love, and that means sometimes people default to silence.

idk where I’m going with this I guess aside from saying unless a comment is outright attacking me I’m never going to get mad at it, and I think a lot of authors should feel the same way. ESPECIALLY TYPOS PLZ GOD POINT OUT MY TYPOS.

Something that also should be said is that even if you hate the source material, try to make something out of it, and not just lash out at it, like when JJ Abrams hated Star Trek, so he destroyed Vulcan, the enterprise, and coupled Spock and Uhura just to piss everyone off

To all TV and movie producers out there, a heartfelt message to you:

STOP👏ADAPTING👏ORIGINAL👏WORKS👏IF👏YOU HATE👏THE SOURCE👏MATERIAL

i hope (know) this is how everyone who has ever fumbled me feels
