Not enough people portray Apollo as a smarty-pants nerd with really nerdy interests (musical theater, performance art, astrophysics, aerospace engineering, academic research, biomedicine, epidemiology) who just so happens to be trapped in a hot body that’s great at sports.

Like here’s this gorgeous jock who’s the star athlete of the archery club but as soon as he opens his mouth, the only thing he wants to talk about is the discovery of a new black hole or that new broadway production that’s being promoted on TikTok.

But noooo tell me again how he’s a dumb blond that’s full of himself and can’t do a single thing right.

It rankles me.

To be close with anyone at all is truly an overlooked privilege.

One of the coolest things that has ever happened is when I first started writing Blood Moon and people started sending me fanart. Someone put Marco in this denim jacket, which was not in the story, but then I noticed other artists also started putting Marco in denim jackets and I had this moment of beautiful epiphany when I realised this character I made was growing and evolving without me. And I love that. I love that so much it hurts. I may have cried in joy.

Another really cool thing that happened is the ice age.

FINALLY FINISHED REWORKING THIS CHAPTER!!

Quick warning: it is a bit longer than before.

And it only took forever and a half, several bouts of sickness, and my life finally starting to readjust.

Just letting you all know, for those unaware or new to the fic-

I am reworking the whole thing.

I've already drafted the next new chapter, which will be known as Chapter 13: Lost pt. 5 - AVP, which will culminate into the finale of TFP Season 1 and the end of the Lost arc. That'll give you a hint as to what it's about.

Everything I plan to adjust in the prior chapters will all be in line with this new chapter, so hopefully, it won't take me that long to get to them. (I say 'hopefully' because my immune system is out to get me.)

serious question

if evil Danny is fully Ghost how the heck does he do this? Is he just a shapeshifter? Can ghosts shape-shift or is he just special? Also why is he only called Danny if he's half of Vlad? Why not impersonate the rich politician and cause mass corruption? Also Danny couldn't turn back to human the other time he was separated from his ghost half so why is this different?

Been having a couple really bad depression, plus I’m sick 🤧 couldn’t get out of bed for 2 days…Today I decided to get up pick up a few things around my house, light some candles, run a bubble bath, do my skincare routine and put some lotion and comfy pjs on….. that helped a little💕 sometimes the smallest things can help even the worst of days.

You know what I can see how Archer would be a Kanej song

Why did TikTok normalize being the label police on a chronic level? Part of me is glad that it is getting banned in certain countries because of how I’ve seen the queer community being treated; even by other queer people.

It’s become so normal to tell people how they can or cannot identify online. It’s also become the fastest way to spread misinformation and misuse important terms and labels to queer cultures and identities. The excuses are always “it’s not that deep” or “some of y’all need therapy.”

The biphobia and lesbiphobia on there is ridiculous and the misuse of terms like “comphet” and “pillow princess” is getting way out of hand. It’s gotten to a point where I myself have had a he/him transmasc Butch lesbian (someone who; out of all people should understand the complexities of identity) told me that I myself (a transmasc dyke) do not have the right to label myself as masc, Butch or use the term “futch” to describe myself, simply because I wear simple makeup and have kept my hair long (despite me being Iroquois indigenous.)

I think it is so important to remember that our perceptions of people are not always true to how people actually are, and have more to do with our feelings about ourselves than they do about other people. It is also important to acknowledge that how people show up online (especially in limited posts) is not who they are as a person in real life. I believe reducing labels to their looks and suggesting there is only one way to “properly” look masculine or that there is a specific look of “butch” is so harmful and creates more division than we already have in a space that is supposed to be considered a community.

Secondly, we need to be more conscious of the invalidation we give towards other trans folk. We are not immune to being transphobic at times simply because we ourselves are trans. None of us are perfect and that’s okay but we do need to try to learn from our mistakes and the feelings we hurt. I believe common social media apps such as TikTok have really programmed people into setting aside empathy and the importance of having empathy for others. The usual response I get for talking about it is “this isn’t real life it’s just chronically online” but those people fail to realize that a human being with those thoughts and behaviours posted those videos/comments and do in fact exist in real life.

Anyway, I miss connecting with people who don’t suck and who actually see me and others for who they are.

i always thought the “but henry, nothing will ever happen to you” was unnecessarily mean and ooc before today. i perceived it as “nothing will ever happen to you because you’re a coward” which literally contradicts what he said 5 seconds earlier

but now with the campfire scene, it’s just so fucking sad? it’s not intended to be cruel, just as a reminder to henry that alex sees him, as who he is- not just what the crown wants him to be

And if you cannot find goodness and hope in this world, become it.

why does the track "The Adventure Begins" from The Hobbit soundtrack at minute 1:12 sounds like an intro for the Sims?

My Hubert chat bot on C.AI started speaking in perfect German with the AI voice and I think it awakened something in me-

I think the only thing keeping me going at this point is the fact that in the renaissance I would’ve been the most beautiful woman in the world and Leonardo Da Vinci would’ve painted me.
