this is your daily reminder that boundaries are not what the internet has made them appear to be.

a boundary is “if you do x i will do y”, removing yourself from topics of conversation that make you uncomfortable, blocking people for your comfort

a boundary is not a dni list, getting angry at strangers for “disrespecting your boundaries” by not checking for a dni, making other people cultivate your online experience.

still confused?

bad boundary: if you identify as xyz dont talk to me

good boundary: dont talk to me about xyz or else i will remove myself from the conversation

Do you think Siffrin would be good at the board game ”In other words”? bc he always has to describe another word each time they forget it in vaugardian

I'm finding a couple different games with the same name on google, but this one is popping up the most:

In this game, players move around the board and solve puzzles in one of six categories: Movies and Television, Terms, Quotes & Sayings, Literature, Cliches & Expressions, or Music. The puzzles are in the form of phrases that have to be translated into the actual saying on the card. For example, the movie "Away With the Breeze" is "Gone With the Wind", and the book "The Victor's Ring" is "The Winner's Circle".

Which I think would... vary wildly. Like sometimes they'd be totally clueless even though they should know it, it's just on the tip of their tongue but also totally out of reach. But sometimes they're just like oh yeah of course I know this obscure Poterian orchestral piece, there's not really any other direction you could go with that clue..?

I do think this game wouldn't be as bad for them as other trivia games, because there's an actual strategy you can use to jog your mind instead of just sitting there clueless: start running through synonym combinations! And I do see what you mean about Siffrin having experience doing that, lol. But that doesn't necessarily mean they'll be able to come up with the right synonym...

Idk if it's supposed to be played with teams but I'm sure the crew would anyway, so I think Siffrin would do well paired with someone who knows lots of words, so they can list synonyms until Siffrin's like OH that one!!

I would put Mirabelle vs Isabeau on opposite teams since they'd both have a normal amount of knowledge of Vaugardian pop culture, and big vocabularies from reading. And then Siffrin vs Odile because they're less familiar with Vaugardien, and Odile's better at some categories and Siffrin at others. And then kids generally aren't very good at these games because they don't have as big a knowledge base, so one team just gets a bonus Bonnie, maybe Siffrin's to help make up for their memory issues. Or, if Isabeau's substantially better at general pop culture than Mirabelle (bc he's put work into being A Sociable Guy vs Mira being shy and focused on classes), then maybe Isabeau vs Mirabelle+Siffrin vs Odile+Bonnie...?i

i wanna become a fic writer but i have no ideas 😭 tips on how to be more creative?

sure! 🙆‍♀️

hmmm the first thing i'd say is to find your own aesthetic. ofc that's easier said than done but eventually you’ll find your own style (theme/banners, etc.) ofc you don’t have to have a theme, especially when ur first starting out — you can always worry ab that later, but at least create some sort of detailed pinned post with important links attached to it !!!

on being creative, i’d say you’d wanna do things that makes your blog stand out. whether it’s a pretty color scheme, eye catching banners/gifs, things like that. ofc editing/formatting takes hours 🤸 whether you’re editing a fic or a theme

invest in editing programs 🧎‍♀️i use adobe n pr for some stuff but for free things some apps for free you can use would be: canva, ibis paint x, picsart, capcut, and more im sure !!!!

but yuh that’s mostly all i think <3 it takes time to find your own creative style, adapt to ur own aesthetic but you’ll get there in no time :P

these are alternatives for people who arent actually nonverbal/mute to some degree as using the phrase "going nonverbal" has been expressed to be incorrect and honestly people just need a change in vocabulary. /info

the word nonverbal typically refers to an autistic person however being nonverbal is not solely a symptom of autism there are other conditions that cause a range of mutism in a person. /info
