i really think people nowadays assume that they’re OWED fan content, and completely forget the PEOPLE behind the content they claim to love.
people don’t leave kudos. they don’t comment unless it’s nasty/critical. they don’t reblog.
and you wonder why you can’t find any content? maybe it’s bc the creators you claimed to love so much stopped sharing their work bc people didn’t seem to appreciate it/treated them like shit
we aren’t some AI spurting out crap. We’re humans putting little pieces of our souls out there for you to share a little joy.
i just wish more people would remember that, and be a lot more appreciative than entitled little shits.
#mini rant#fandumb#fandom etiquette#idc if everyone unfollows me at this point not like any one gives a shit about me anyway lol#i mean that’s clear#like this whole year i’ve felt like no one remembered i was even part of this damn fandom#and then shit like yesterday happens and i’m reminded why i spent most my life not sharing my work with anyone#like why should i use extra spoons to polish and format something that people are gonna sneer at and then CLAIM they loved it?#like if you truly love a creator’s work TELL THEM#or show them#jfc like a kudos takes two seconds#a reblog less if you don’t tag#and yet here we are

It's not that I want Colin and Eloise to forget about their grievances towards LW and forgive Penelope entirely, that wouldn't be fair to either of them, it's that I want them both to give Penelope a chance to explain herself and understand her motives for why/how she handled the Marina and Theo situations the way she did through LW.
Colin and Eloise are nothing if not impulsive beings, and whilst this allows them to thoroughly care for the people in their lives and remain loyal to them, it also enables them to behave and judge without considering an alternative perspective(s).
I don't want them to forgive Penelope and pat themselves on the back for thinking that what they're forgiving is her perceived "maliciousness" (as Eloise has done, to a certain point), because for as much division Pen's character has created within the fandom, her actions were never intentionally cruel, (at least not towards the two scandals she'd exposed for these two in order to save them, lol).
It would be unfair for all three characters if LW is resolved, not through these two siblings truly understanding who Penelope is with her flaws and the purpose of LW, but the forgiveness of misunderstanding Penelope's actions.
It's why the anticipation for s3 part 2 is so damn nerve-wracking, lol TL;DR, please give my Penny-boo a chance to explain and accommodate the anxiety-inducing endeavor of revealing such a secret ;^;
#polin#bridgerton#everyone else: i can't wait for s3 part 2#me: give me another day or two to get myself ready omfg#a rant#lol what

while i am having lots of fun with the boops i also have begun my third pass at editing echoseers and. hoo boy.
im starting off strong designing a fucking board game
#braindumps.txt#echoseers#im calling it nexus#its on a circular thick wooden board with a hollow chamber up top with a glass cover and many multicolored#and different-material beads inside#the player pieces are legions and squads trying to get from the outer ring to the center (the nexus. hence the name)#part of set up is shaking the board so the beads clump around different nodes on the rings to create obstacles#like mountains and forests and riverways and such#and you fight each other taking pieces kinda like chess#but the ultimate goal isnt necessarily taking the army#its sneaking someone around to take the nexus#and the terrain changes every time bc of the shaking#scouts can go on mountains but no other pieces can#they cant fight#you can convert supply lines into riverboats but they cant be converted back#they can carry other pieces downriver though#you can cut off supply lines and the other person's army will ''starve'' in two turns#i dont know if it would actually be fun#and i know for a fact i would be bad at it in real life#but its important to th echapter and i didnt want just Real Life Chess in there#cause i dont know enough about chess lol#anyways thanks for coming to my tag rant love u if u read this far

911 Elementary fandoms there's gotta be some overlap here, right??
The minute I saw Albert show up at Chimney's door it made me think of Joan's sister popping up... I need Joan and Chimney to bond over their annoying /affec younger siblings
I also think Sherlock would be incredibly done with anyone on the 118 within minutes of meeting them LMFAOFJFJD buuuutt Sherlock would love Athena. He'd be like "omg finally another competent police officer that's not Bell". And I think Athena would respect Sherlock sm too, tho maybe put him in his place too depending on which season Sherlock we're talking LMAOOO
Athena and Hen and Joan together would be too much power ����😭 the absolute girlbossness of those three would explode the world I think
Bobby and Gregson exchanging dad jokes /j
I ALMOST FORGOT TO MENTION BOBBY AND SHERLOCKS ADDICTION HOW DID I FORGET TO WRITE THAT LMAOO
Anywaysss I often think about the two of them stumbling into each other at a meeting
911 and Elementary are both shows that have shown incredibly realistic depictions of addiction and recovery and AGRHAGRHGSHDHD I need these two in the same room together... Also Alfredo and Wendall would be unstoppable tgt actually, can u imagine them bonding over stories about Bobby and Sherlock 😭😭😭❤️❤️🫶 (yes. Yes I am still sad about Wendall shush)
Man man man now I can't stop thinking about Bobby and Sherlock 😭😭😭
I just think that'd be neat
#i got reminded of an old hyperfixation#yall know what that means#[foxie once again rants about an obscure crossover bc they dont know how to keep their interests separated]#this isnt a show where i think about a super in depth crossover bc for the most part their vibes are veryyyy different#but bobby and sherlock.... ohhhh that would slap i need those two to meet so badly#911#cbs elementary#elementary#sherlock holmes#joan watson#marcus bell#captain gregson#bobby nash#athena grant#chimney han#firefam#118#henrietta wilson#first au where buck isnt the firefront LOLLLL#i love him sm but.....mgmfmffmd#tho i think his random knowledge would vibe well w sherlock#but i feel like they would very much easily clashshdfjfkggkd#foxie rambles#crossovers#yippee !!#oops i meant forefront btw not firefront LOL

#i got a haircut#which is always scary lol#The hair dresser did good#She cut too much of my little strands I keep to braid though#I have two strands behind my ears that are longer than the rest but she shortened some of the hair in those#Which means my braids are way too thin#I'm gonna have to grow another part back to the length they are now#That's gonna be like a whole six months#Pshhhh#But fine#Sure#I say don't touch those strands and she fucks with them. At least the rest of the cut's great#I don't trust hairdressers#I always leave crying#sorry for the rant#Charlie Somegrumpynerd#answered asks

i won’t hold people to the same standards i have on myself in terms of friendship bc everyone shows they care in different ways
#this is a part affirmation and part intro to a rant i need to unleash#but i’ll leave it in the tags here bc it feels safer lol#it’s abt my housemate the other day when we had our last class which is online but our previous classes were in person so as a class we#usually just pull it up on the main computer and broadcast the zoom in the classroom#but on this day the class before this zoom class got out early so lots of people went home early to just watch it on their own zoom or wtvr#so the row i sit in was pretty empty except for me my housemate and our two friends#and usually my housemate sits on my right but she got up and moved to sit on the other side next to our other friend and said nothing#and i didn’t want to say anything bc i was kinda sad/offended even though#her moving seats probably has nothing to do with me and much rather her personal preference i can’t help but think negatively abt myself#also one morning we were both off she went to the smoothie shop and coffee shop and just went to pick up her orders and i felt the same#reaction of like sad/offended bc she didn’t consider me at al like what if i wanted a smoothie too! TF#or coffee even though i don’t drink coffee anymore wtvr#my thoughts on her and my friendship are kinda rocky bc we feel so out of sync#i feel like she’s always in her own world and it’s hard to get through to her and become real friends#it’s whatever not all friendships can be deep and meaningful

listen if we brat summer our way out of fascism I'll fuckin take it
#ravi rants#historically speaking the best way to shut down asshats that violate the social contract of tolerance is to mock them#idk man maybe I have a different perspective on all of this because I'm part of the desi diaspora#but like.... so Indians won't always obviously call out violations of social decorum#if you're making an idiot of yourself or you're making a scene. other people will stand by and let you do it.#my therapist and I talk about me coming from a high-context Asianic cultural background like I do a lot actually#because the thing about Indian decorum is that. like.#one. you protect yours. if your friend is actively intervening in on something there's a reason and it might be helpful#but two. if someone's breaking decorum.... we allow them to do so in order to figure out why.#if someone's ex is crashing a wedding and successfully gets the floor they'll get heard out#and everyone will be paying attention#because the thing is those kinds of overt violations of decorum usually happen for a reason....#Indian soap operas are A Lot™ but listen. a party might be the right time to call someone out on being abusive or manipulative#because the whistleblower can be escorted away to safety by them and theirs.#and usually you have to be able to know enough decorum to get to the point where you make a scene#and Indians respect the hustle. we'll hear you out.#the Hindu gods are notorious for being like 'alright smart guy. here's your wish.'#the gods will readily admit if they've been outwitted#but you're an idiot if you think you'll get away with fucking with the natural chaos of samsara and karma forever :)#however. there's also Hindu parables of asuras and dumbass humans realizing they fucked up and taking the L with grace#and the gods respect that#but lol. fascists aren't respectful.#Richard Spencer shut the fuck up after we all saw him get punched#conservatives are having a mental breakdown over being called weird while insisting that a cis woman is a man#and I'd like to remind everyone that the social role of a court jester is to keep everyone humble#bc dude. if you're getting butthurt over the clown ribbing you. maybe calm the fuck down? look in the mirror?#you may be a king but the larger the seat you hold#the better your toilet plumbing should be

PSA |
Yes this is a Jason Peter Todd centric blog, but it's also 100% supportive of Talia al Ghul. There will be no slander here. No perpetuating of the racist, misogynistic bullshit that drove the narrative divebomb of her character.
#Talia al Ghul#Talia al Ghul Appreciation#Blog PSA#Not a Brutalia stan but I support the shippers.#Fuck Grant Morrison#They were the catalyst for her being mischaracterized for near 20 years now.#I don't know if I believe them when they say they “remembered that scene wrong.”#Like... what?#Literally nothing in Talia's character or writing should have ever led you to think that of her.#And you're not a fucking fanfic author writing for tens to maybe a couple hundred readers Grant.#You were writing for an official canon work that thousands upon hundreds of thousands of people have read.#You had a duty to double check your facts before tarnishing the legacy of a character#that has been so incredibly important to the Batman history and story.#I'm of the belief that it was done at least in part to make Bruce the good parent#which is a bit of a hard thing to do after decades of him being a C- dad 90% of the time to the boys and pretty shitty to Stephanie.#Have also considered it was something done to make Damian more... Tragic? Sympathetic? Potentially.#But I'm not as confident in that as I am that it was motivated by the desire to make Bruce the good parent of the two.#Even if we dismiss those possibilities and the prejudices involved#Grant could have just gone through those issues again and went with the storyline where Brutalia gets it on#then Talia either never informs Bruce of the pregnancy or fakes a miscarriage like I think she did in the original pre Crisis plot.#After that she hides the pregnancy from Ra's and gives birth in secret. Maybe she has him trained in much the same fashion as Jason was.#Like there was definitely better options for Grant to live out their power fantasies through Damian in ways that didn't spit on Talia.#Anyway rant over.#Back to the regularly scheduled Jason reblogs lol.#Ξ Queued

Love stumbling on random ship hate on pinterest when it's something I never look for /sarc
#2 and counting#i rather laugh at it#they be like 'who ships this??' 'people ships this???' 'what is wrong with people shipping this???' and you know what.#its not even a 'problematic' ship. its two best friends. thats like. one of the most basic type of ships. why do they have hate for it??#even if they dont ship it. like. leave them alone no?#dont talk about ship lots exactly bc im scared ppl would react like this. in retrospect i should do my thing and assert myself. but ive got#my ao3 account for that lol#a-ny-wayyy sorry for this small rant needed to get it out#*the sarcasm is for the 'love' part not the 'i never look it up'#i never partake in ship hate /srs

Helloo, I still exist did anyone even notice I was mostly gone lol
Anyone interested in ehhh...slightly unhinged work-related talk?
No?
Well. Too bad
Anyone that knows me irl please ignore the tags – I'm embarrassed ✨🥰
#I said ignore the tags#please ignore them#I'm serious#alright soooo...i started this new job about 1 1/2 months ago... It's not great or anything neither is the payment but it's alright#also I can walk there from home bc it's so close by which is nice I guess#anywayyy it's a grocery store owned and run by a family (my boss and his wife + their 2 (3??) adult children)#now my boss is kinda hard to figure out I always think he's annoyed which makes me insecure but I think that's just how he is idk lol#but he isn't rude or anything (at least I never noticed??)#his wife seems nice and so does (one of) their daughter(s(?))#his son – who is idk probably in his early 30s?? could also be late 20s but I can't guess people's age – is the manager#he's nice as well I think and he even jokes around with (some of) the employees from time to time#either way...this is all rather irrelevant. Point is some part of me has decided to be uhhh weird about him in the past week ig#and I don't think that feeling was there before?? Idk I don't consider him attractive or anything (at least I don't think I do??) + he's#married (?? He's definitely taken) and has two children I think judging from his profile picture in our work-app at least and like I said#he could also be quite a bit older (I mean...yk)#anywayyy i am being weird about him and something within me turned into teenager mode or whatever and iiiiiiii don't know what to do lol#not that it's really a big deal I suppose it's just that he's my boss' son and my supervisor/manager/superior/?? which makes thoughts#outside of work weird (:#no i will not elaborate#alright tag rant over I'm not sure I really wanna post this this feels awkward to post publicly hah :')#will probably delete later#someone send help#((:

There’s a meta I want to write about the commagate breakup non breakup and how I think backtracking made such perfect sense for Adam as an extension of his attachment styles and just generally him in relationships literally since TRB and how there is so much about that choice that would be extremely interesting to explore and even I think could function so well as a climactic point to his identity crisis and force him to face some fundamental disconnects between his self perception and self that have always been there, but the maddening thing is that it’s framed narratively as a positive rather than Adam falling back into negative coping mechanisms. But I haven’t found a great way to articulate it all yet beyond steam coming out of my ears about it.
#well not totally true I’ve spoken on parts of it usually in tag rants. I wanted in part to wait till I’d reread the first two books again to#see if some of my thinking I still agree with (I do) but I feel like I should maybe reread the RA scenes in Gwaren before fully going into#it and I don’t want to do that.#also think many wouldn’t like what I have to say but that on it’s own wouldn’t stop me lol. Maybe I’ll reblog this post to rant when I’m in#the right mood#fandom wank#s speaks#trc#but like. I have talked about the fact I think it was very true to character.#tdt

You have other visual novels (or IFs)???? On my knees respectfully begging for the name(s) 🙏 if you're comfortable sharing that is
I do! I'm planning on just putting Burning Academia on my main itch.io page because making a separate account sounds tedious lol so I don't mind sharing the link.
I only have 2 finished games and a demo for a tentative project as far as VNs go + a novella and short story collection on there. But to anon and anyone else reading this, I'm going to need you to promise me to keep one thing in mind, ok?
Memory Ghosts was my first attempt at making a VN in 2020 and if you play it, it's not reflective of any of my current skills lmfaO
Anyway here's my itch.io page.
Also some quick guidelines, although I'm sure it's probably obvious:
This blog is just for BA. I won't answer anything related to my other projects on here.
Less a point and more an add on to 1; Despite me ultimately deciding to put BA on my main itch.io page I do want to keep this separate from everything else for personal reasons. This means the opposite is true. If you're also interested in Everything Else and follow my ""main""" tumblr I won't answer questions there in regards to BA. In fact, you'll likely never find mention of it there.
#em answers#miscellaneous#also it's not super serious reasons it's just personal preference#part of it is all my other work is 13 plus and this Is Not#and while BA is only 17plus I'm clearly fine with the blog being 18plus and I don't want those two things to mix especially#anyway my personal recommendation of my work is either PRETTYBOY INC or We Are Connected short stories btw#I think the first two stories in We Are Connected are the closest to how the writing kinda sounds in this#please note my writing style changes every project though#trigger warnings are on each individual page btw!#sorry for ranting just wanted to get that all out of the way now lol

13 fics to me that is crazy. Can I say I truly enjoyed Striking Out. I really don't understand the hate you got for it. Understand not liking what a character is doing but in the end its truly just a story that the author is creating don't read if you don't like. It's tagged angst with a happy ending. There is going to be parts that make you feel sad or mad but it will get better. Sorry I just really loved what you have written for the story.
It's crazy to me too, anon 😁
Thank you, that's very sweet of you to say - and I do agree with you, when I read a story tagged with angst, I'm expecting angst! Over time, I've come to think that maybe some people took the actions of the characters in that story a little too personally, and that's why the reaction was as... intense as it was.
Either way, as much as I have gotten some negative and demotivating comments on that fic, I have also had some truly lovely ones that have been a joy to read - stuff a lot like this 💖
#ask#ily anon <3#not to vent too hard (hence hiding away in the tags lol) but as i've been thinking about it the last few months#i think a big part of the reaction was readers not heeding warnings about content they may struggle with#i've written two fics around the topic of abuse - both including warnings that they will cover this topic#and in both instances i had people telling me they had personal experience with it and didn't like xyz part for xyz reason#including one person actually telling me i triggered them#and i don't want to be insensitive but if you have triggers around domestic/psychological abuse... like#i'm sorry but maybe reading a story on that topic is something you shouldn't do? idk#all i can do is warn you man#the rest is up to you#and end rant#🙃
