Hate when mfs who only ship wolfstar say "they almost kissed when sirius got out of azkaban!" My guy James and sirius would have ACTUALLY kissed if James was alive and saw sirius out of azkaban let's be for real

Ngl tho people legit do this… you spend most of your childhood wearing a seatbelt, then one day you just say, meh, nothing bad has ever happened, maybe I don’t always need to wear one.

The problem is, humans are just like this, they see nothing bad happening to them, so they get lax with safety, and one day, something might happen and they are gonna regret not wearing a seatbelt. When the next Covid wave comes, people are gonna regret not wearing a mask. But that’s just human nature… we don’t learn from history

everyone giving up on masks is so fucking stupid, like it’s like if everyone was like huh, we’ve been wearing seatbelts for a while now and it’s really decreased the amount of injuries people have had in car crashes. let’s all stop wearing them now cause we can’t live in fear forever! no more seatbelts unless you really want one! Oh, you’re still wearing a seatbelt? Didn’t you know you don’t have to use those anymore? why are you being so paranoid?

im so serious if you cant imagine a single female character u like or you coincidentally only care about men or imagine that women are a different species of human that are impossible to draw or write about or relate to, You are the problem. its not because you’re gay it’s because you do not like women

Concept: Peter actually got bitten by a totally normal spider. It's just a coincidence that his mutant powers were awakened around the same time

You don't know jennie :O ? That's suprising, she's a very popular member of Blackpink. And what do you think about jungkook aside from that he has a lot of fire energy?

(In a lot of fire energy you mean that he is brave and confident and etc?😭😭)

I have heard of Blackpink and I've heard about the retarded fanwars or whatever the fuck. But as for people in the group, I'm not familiar with them. I know some of the new groups names that exist, but that's basically it lol When it comes to listening a good song, Ig I stick to the good ol' groups that no longer exist like BlockB or BAP or JustMusic(they still make music so that's good). The only girl group I have liked to some extent was 2NEI. Ig, for me, too much pop just aint for me which is like 99%of the songs from girl groups.

Fire can have negative sides to it too. How about you try to sense what you feel about him first and tell me what you feel? ;) that would be interesting.

Reminder that the response to “you’ll never be a man/woman” is not to list off all the ways that hrt has profound changes on the human body but to reject completely any sex-based or hormone-based definition of gender.

I get the impulse to justify yourself, I really do, but it is impossible to justify yourself to bigots, and trying to do so leaves behind so many trans and intersex people who don’t fit the acceptable narrative you’re trying to create.

Success is Dependent on Secret Information

A lot of career success depends on you and the work you put into it, as well as luck beyond your control, but sadly, it also depends on secret information, magic words, and stupid little tricks.

That's not fair. I don't like it, but we can help by sharing that secret information--which is the antidote to gate-keeping. That's why I recently wrote this in my Authors of Nonfiction Books in Progress substack:

It can be really disheartening to realize that, when you thought you failed at something because you didn't do well enough, other people had the magic words. For instance, some injustices I've witnessed (that may or may not always be the case, or maybe not anymore!) include:

A good athletic score doesn't get you into a college sport--having a coach or parent talk to the college coach is mandatory

Many school-sponsored scholarships are often not tightly linked to grades, test scores, or financial need, but whether the student said the right words ("I can't afford that") to the right person (presumably some financial office person.)

Apparently, some aspects of some degrees are cheated on by most students (if that's the case, we should tell all students that it's ok to cheat on that so they don't waste their time on something that apparently wasn't important anyway, or worse, fail out just for being ethical.)

Especially related to books: Few people will mention that you can get grants! Not my agent, not my publisher, not the 1 zillion "pros and cons of trad publishing" articles out there mentioned grants (Grant eligibility is a HUGE benefit of trad publishing.) I got more money from grants than my entire book advance!

Let me know what magic words/secret knowledge you've learned, that you wish you knew sooner. Or: the widespread understanding of what information would make a field more fair?

And please share ANBIP with anyone writing, publishing, or seriously about to start writing, a nonfiction non-memoir book, especially if they're interested in the more practical side (I share more about resources and strategy than craft.)

Apparently when my younger brother was just born my mom found him napping with his blanket fully covering him, and she pulled back the sheet (worried he couldn't breathe or something) to find him fully awake staring at her. It scared the shit out of her and she still talks about it to this day lmao
