i like working at plant store. sometimes you ring up someone and there's a slug on their plant and so you're like "Oh haha you've got a friend there let me get that for you" and you put the slug on your hand for safekeeping but then its really busy and you dont have time to take the slug outside before the next customer in line so you just have a slug chilling on your hand for 15 minutes. really makes you feel at peace with nature. also it means sometimes i get to say my favorite line which is "would you like this free slug with your purchase"

When a fic doesn’t fit my head canons but it’s well-written

#I don’t think xy OR z happened but damn if this isn’t compelling#‘he would never do that. next chapter’#also it’s good to look beyond our own perceived ideas of the narrative and be fascinated by others takes#I’m only reading fanfics from one fandom so#gravity falls#fiddauthor#fan fiction#ao3#old man yaoi#the office#dwight schrute#screencaps

'ao3 needs a like and dislike button'
what you need, my algorithm-rotten minded friend, is a grip
#ao3#archive of our own#what.do.you.MEAN#how do these takes still find me#HOW#'but I only want to read the good stuff' THAT MEANS DIFFERENT THINGS TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE#THERE ARE HIDDEN GEMS YOU WONT EVEN FIND#also you know what you TRULY want? fics recs it's called fic recs but hey cant have that if you dont read THE FUCKING FICS first#imagine thinking fanworks are uniquely for your consumption and products to be ranked on a scale#ANYWAY it just boggles the mind#mine

my most toxic trait is i fucking love work gossip. i play neutral not to be the bigger person or take the high road but to hear slander and hearsay from every side. two coworkers complained about each other to me in the same afternoon and i nearly blacked out from the rush
#only for like general annoyances of course not like#This Person Is Legitimately Bad#do i have to couch all my posts still you guys get it right

I hate when I say things like "oh I want an ipod classic but with bluetooth so I can use wireless headphones" and some peanut comes in and replies with "so a smartphone with spotify?" No. I want a 160GB+ rectangular monstrosity where I can download every version of every song I want to it and it does nothing except play music and I don't need a data connection and don't have to pay a subscription to not have ads and don't have popups suggesting terrible AI playlists all over the menus.
Gimme the clicky wheel and song titles like "My Chemical Romance- The Black Parade- Blood (Bonus Track)- secret track- album rip- high quality"
#ok to rb#music#ipod#spotify#only apple product ive ever genuinely liked was the ipod#i had an ipod classic i bought off trademe that someone had put a higher capacity harddrive in#think it was like 320GB or something#i loved that thing#mywriting

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.
Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.
#this isn't even commentary on how much i like those particular films (i have only actually ever watched the former)#i just feel like perhaps we are forgetting the ancient texts#it's also a painfully live-action heavy list which. i am willing to admit i've spent time in more animation-heavy corners than some#but at the same time -- no disney's atlantis?#i saw a gifset on my dash about one ms. helga sinclair TODAY

generally you shouldn't write run-on sentences because they get confusing and it doesn't give the reader a break. that doesn't apply to me though my run-on sentences are fun and understandable and they have a rhythm to it that makes you want to keep reading
#.docx#sometimes i go through old works and notice entire paragraphs with only one punctuation mark and it's like#93 words.#(jaded old man voice) i submitted a 93 word sentence once.

also I got a tattoo partially re-coloured today and they bandaged me in veterinary wrap like I'm a sick horse
#the original tattoo was coloured just fine!#the only problem was that one of the colours was clashing with the tattoo just above it#the neon pink fish belly didn't match well with the earthy palette of my medieval lady#so I had a guy go over it and make the fish belly bright red#(which IS a colour you see in illuminated manuscripts!)#and now I'm very happy with everything

#class– would erik use reddit? let's discuss#phantom of the opera#poto#poto shitpost#okay but imagine the paris opera house subreddit#there being a pinned thread dedicated to opera ghost sightings#erik having mod access for some reason#(the managers keep trying to ban him but he only stays gone for like 2 days before reappearing somehow)#the ballet girls using burner accounts to spread rumors#someone posts that they saw the vicomte go to christine's dressing room like it's deuxmoi#erik fully just doxxes them in the comments
