Made a blinkie for my art fight profile then ended up making a second version too :]

[image ids: two blinkies. Both of them say "support public transit." The first blinkie has the gear station logo from pokemon on either side of the text. The second blinkie is trans colored and has a train to the right of the text. End id]

So I know I haven't posted much this past month. That's because I signed up for the DP Ecto Implosion event and ended up writing a 20k fic for it!!!

Posting week just started, I plan to post the first half of it this week (starting Friday or Sunday) and the second half next week.

I can't wait to show off the artist who I was assigned. Their work is absolutely gorgeous and you all are gonna love it.

Continuing my trend of writing new styles and tropes, I wrote a suspense/mystery story, tropes I've never really done before but which were perfect for the art. (Great for me, because I'm really trying to expand my repertoire.)

I'd like to add that I only signed up for this event because I figured I could write a 3k one shot and have plenty of time to spare. Of course, that didn't happen and I spent so much more time on it than expected. (Just finished the fic this morning at 1:30 am before going to bed.) Still have quite a bit of editing to do too, though the first 5k is posting ready.

Exciting News!

Ahhhhhhhhh! This is cause for celebration. And It All Went Smoothly has officially reached 400 views on Ao3!!! This is a huge milestone for me seeing as most of my fics cap out at maybe 80 views each. Thank you all so much for deciding to check this one out. I truly do appreciate every hit, kudo, and comment on this one! Well, on all my fics really. I know I write some (apparently) niche stuff for my own enjoyment, so it really does warm my heart when other people like what I've created too. Here's to more success in the future and just more fun!

Thank you everyone!

It's gone midnight and I need some sleep, busy day ahead.

But keep booping one another until it has stopped.

I've had a blast and this has cheered me up no end

Nighty night folks, catch up later

store run and then dead pool bracket generation

i only started writing fics about three months ago, now, but I think it's honestly one of the best decisions I could have made for my mental health, having somewhere to sort through the ideas and the world building that I've kept trapped in my head for over a decade has been so relieving.

And the progress I've made from my first piece to my most recent

and even the progress I've accomplished from my first mature content, to my most recent , knowing where I started and seeing the progress I've made through each, and even knowing if no one read anything, I was still just doing this for my own enjoyment, and seeing how far I've come, it's helped a lot with my self worth issues lately.

and I wouldn't trade the community I'm writing with/for for anything in the world right now, the support has been worth more to me than I could ever truly express

Don't you sometimes get an absolutely extrodinary, mind blowing, such an awesome idea for a story, but you just don't have enough skill level to pull it off?

i really can't emphasize how heartbreaking it is that the recent harassment campaign against @/90-ghost (among others; see: 1, 2, 3) has led to well-meaning people telling others not to listen to him. he is one of the most visible survivors of the genocide here on tumblr. his entire journey of escape is so well documented! and yet, it only took a few people confidently pointing fingers to create an entire witch hunt accusing him and other palestinians of being disreputable scammers and liars.

i can't help but feel like the reason why people were SO eager to believe those accusations, is because it was uncomfortable to see posts from palestinians every day asking for our time, attention, money, and support; so when someone presented the perfect excuse to ignore all those posts and asks while also taking the high ground, people just LEAPED onto it. they wanted to believe it, because it would be more comfortable.

honestly, i understand feeling overwhelmed by bad news, by the number of asks and messages in your inbox, and so on and so forth. i understand needing to set boundaries for yourself so you don't get burned out. i think this is really when you have to have a set of principles to fall back on, even when you're tired, uncomfortable, angry, and/or sad. so here's the one i suggest, which has been working for me best: don't make your discomfort with this situation into someone else's problem, and for god's sake don't make it a public problem.

if you hate seeing fundraiser posts or news about gaza, i can't emphasize this enough, JUST MOVE ON. KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT AND SCROLL PAST! all you have to do is absolutely nothing. which is what you were doing anyway, so it shouldn't be hard. if you don't have the heart to read, or reblog, or share, or donate, or support in other ways, at the very least, don't obstruct the efforts of people who ARE trying to make a difference. this is, quite literally, the least you can do.

Happy final Bad Batch Eve, it's been an honor boyos

The indescribable tension between an overworked and underpaid smut writer, and his biggest fan hater.

tbh the real reason Billford could never work is because Bill is a a frat boy party girl and Ford would get sick of his shit 10 minutes in.
