I love tagging. I don't know how to do it properly but this is soo amusing to create the most random tags on the mundanest post ever

Or sometimes creating tags longer than the post itself? Big yes

Or tags that are absolutely not related to the post ? I can tag this as a supernatural fanfiction

The amount of power is insane

Meant to post something earlier, but hey, I'm doing it now.

Happy Birthday Five Nights at Freddy's!! I can't believe it has been ten years since you were created. While I've only been around for eight (that's crazy!) of those years, it's been a pleasure to see how far you've come. We even got a movie with another on the way, wow!

All the YouTubers, artists, musicians, writers, gamers, and everyone else who made the fandom what it is, I appreciate your work and time so much. Although I'm an adult now, this game made up so much of my childhood. It developed me into someone who loves horror and gaming and trying to find every bit of lore and story (even when it's unrelated to FNaF).

It has been a consistent worry that one day I'll leave the fandom and the games behind, but every time a new game comes out, I'm right there waiting to see what happens. Even if the day does come where I leave this behind, I'm so happy with the memories I have from this time in my life.

Thank FNaF for being so much bigger than just a game to me and, again, happy birthday!

"A story doesn't need a theme in order to be good" I'm only saying this once but a theme isn't some secret coded message an author weaves into a piece so that your English teacher can talk about Death or Family. A theme is a summary of an idea in the work. If the story is "Susan went grocery shopping and saw a weird bird" then it might have themes like 'birds don't belong in grocery stores' or 'nature is interesting and worth paying attention to' or 'small things can be worth hearing about.' Those could be the themes of the work. It doesn't matter if the author intended them or not, because reading is collaborative and the text gets its meaning from the reader (this is what "death of the author" means).

Every work has themes in it, and not just the ones your teachers made you read in high school. Stories that are bad or clearly not intended to have deep messages still have themes. It is inherent in being a story. All stories have themes, even if those themes are shallow, because stories are sentences connected together for the purpose of expressing ideas, and ideas are all that themes are.

my permanent issue is that i automatically assume everyone around me is bi if not proven otherwise so I automatically bestow the honor onto any character I like

Hello

U are awesome

Ok bye

*flee*

Aww, don't run!!

This is so nice! You are awesome too! Let's both be awesome!

Sometimes, we won't feel awesome, but that will be okay.

There will be other days to be awesome. Perhaps, on a not-awesome day, you just need some rest.

But sometimes getting rest is hard :(

That's okay too.

As your awesome buddy, I'm rootin' for ya :)

the feeling of being watched or followed

[theodysseyofhomer]

sorry for bringing up stupid discourse in the middle of the night again. remembered the time someone tagged my homophrosyne post complaining that odysseus gets to sleep around while loudly proclaiming that he'll kill his wife if she cheats. which: absolutely did not happen! not in homer's odyssey!

as i alluded to in that post, there is an implied threat to penelope. but it's not implied in anything odysseus says about or to her! i would argue that it's most heavily implied in how the telemachia is framed by the house of atreus drama. orestes has recently avenged his father's death at the hands of his mother's lover; it stands to reason (so the story would go) that if penelope were to accept a suitor, they would pose a threat to odysseus, and telemachus would have to avenge him. that is the implied layout of the poem. which it then subverts time and again by none of that happening with odysseus, penelope, and telemachus.

and it's also implied by the gendered double standards around marital fidelity in a multi-thousand-year-old text, which are overarching, and not particularly shocking in that context. i find it completely disingenuous to make it an odysseus problem when there is so much going on in their marriage that's more interestinggg
