RULES — #criaturisma.

last updated oct. 28 / 2024.

1. MUN INFO.

hiya ! mun is 21+ and in eastern standard time (utc+5). i’ve been writing for over a decade. i am a full-time student with two jobs. safe to say i’m up to my knees in work quite often. this blog runs on queue & i am heavily inactive on tumblr — discord is the best place to reach me. expect thread replies 1-2x a week. i am highly selective & will rarely reply to unsolicited rp requests in tumblr dms.

2. WRITING PREFERENCES.

i am a literate, multi-para to novella writer (500 - 4000 words). you do not have to match length, but please give me something tangible to work with! third person, past tense, proper capitalization and grammar. i have severe visual impairment — overly stylized text is incredibly difficult for me to read. i do not roleplay on dash for this reason and likely never will. discord only.

i have few limits and triggers. however, i will not write trauma porn for the sake of it. i appreciate dead dove and dark topics when they have a narrative purpose, as is often the case with my own muses. everything is always up for discussion besides explicit non-con & underage between our muses.

i am comfortable writing nsfw or simply fading to black. it’s your preference. however, i do not write nsfw just for the sake of it or as the entire plot in itself. i prefer some substance to things just to sustain my own interest.

i write all pairings and dynamics: m/f, f/f, m/m, and non-binary characters aplenty. as a lesbian, f/f plots have a special place in my heart. i am very picky about picking up m/m plots and while it is something i write, it will be much more rare i ever do so. i also love non-romantic plots, so feel free to suggest platonic or familial connections too!

i do love lesser utilized fcs & fcs of color. i will often prioritize using them myself, so it’s highly unlikely i will play a wanted face for you if it’s a highly well-known actor — i am not a beacon of tailor-made, well-curated self-insert erotica. i do often come with pre-existing muses, and it is rare i will come up with someone new for our plot (unless i really like you lol).

3. GENERAL GUIDELINES.

please do not spam me — i am very busy, this is a hobby, and i hate to feel like our plot is a chore. i’m usually very good about ooc chitchat and maintaining replies on a weekly basis. however, i can get unexpectedly very busy. after two weeks of no reply, feel free to bump me. otherwise, please be understanding! i will also bump you if there’s been no reply for ~2 weeks, and will assume no response = you’ve dropped the plot.

mun ≠ muse. i do not believe what is written in fiction translates into someone’s true character (except for certain subjects). i understand certain topics can make people uncomfortable. please be open + honest with me about triggers and limits!

i do not write with writers who solely play female muses (unless you solely write f/f). it makes me incredibly uncomfortable. i will block users who send me unsolicited dms or like my ads without reading my rules & only write female muses.

i do not double-up. please do not ask — it’s uncomfortable to feel like we’re only writing because we “owe” one another something, and not for the enjoyment of the hobby.

i will block folks who only write with “cisgender females” or engage with similar terf rhetoric.

i will block smut-centric blogs who post misogynistic kink.

i will write just about any genre except supernatural & high fantasy ( with the exception of hotd ). some of my favorite genres incl. apocalyptic / post-apocalyptic, period dramas, western, and psychological horror. i do also love slice of life, but am pickier about taking them on to avoid plot plateaus due to lack of character development.

4. MISC.

BANNED FCS.

euphoria cast (except hunter schafer & barbie ferreria).

the jenners, the kardashians, the biebers, all that mess.

most IG models / influencers.

sabrina carpenter, taylor swift, etc.

the deceased & anyone who’s asked not to be used.

ben affleck, johnny depp, leonardo dicaprio, matt damon.

love island cast.

margaret qualley.

nicholas chavez, evan peters.

molly gordon, chloe cherry, nicola peltz.

The Nightwing Suit

There are some absolutely incredible artists out here on tumblr, and seeing their fanart makes me cry tears of joy. Dick Grayson, one of my personal favs, is always a wonderful contender for fanart. His innate grace and agility and flexibility translate beautifully on the artistic spectrum. Bottom line: I love all the Nightwing fanart. However, there is something I want to address with his suit. I’ve been an aerialist ever since I was 7 years old, and I’ve taken gymnastics since I was 3. Now, I specialize in Lyra, while Dick obviously specializes in Trapeze, but when it comes to costume, we’ve got many very important similarities.

DON’TS

When it comes to aerial, we want as much mobility and flexibility as possible. So here are some things that absolutely will not be on his suit.

1. Shoulder Pads. I will scream it from the rooftops if I have to. The Nightwing suit WILL NOT have shoulder pads!! Red Hood? Definitely. Red Robin? Those shoulder pads are important for bo staff strength and support. Robin? Damian probably doesn’t need them, but they won’t hurt. Nightwing? No way. To me, one of the most important parts of my body when practicing and performing are my shoulders. They pull me into hangs and holds, let me rotate myself around, and basically support the rest of my body. This is partially due to user preference: I prefer arm-based stunts and hangs rather than leg based. But it honestly doesn’t matter that much. Nightwing will absolutely need 100% use of his shoulders. Him being able to freely rotate them can be the difference between life and death with his style of fighting. Shoulder pads will just hamper that flexibility. I will admit that shoulder pads look badass, but in this one hero’s scenario? Shouldr pads are a no-go.

2. Sleek Arm Braces. Nightwing, while being well recognized as a solo hero, does often work with a team. And on a team, he isn’t the type to huff angrily and say he can do this by himself. Emotionally? Yes, of course. Physically, and in a fight? He takes all the help he can get, with absolutely no would to his pride. When performing his flips and tricks and such, the other partner will grab hold of him by usually his hands or his arms. I’m just going to straight up say: catching someone by their hands is a Bad Idea. You will not believe the speed we travel when we go through the air, and catching by the hands will lead to dislocations and pain. For a few stunts it’s okay, mainly for the visual aspect of a performance. But when it’s life and death combat? Hands are a last ditch effort if you can’t catch someone by the arms. Because that’s what really counts. The forearms. When Dick is fighting with someone, and that other person has the strength to catch him/throw him from a drop or a flip, they will catch him by the forearms. If Dick’s wearing sleek ‘n sexy arm braces, he’s going to slip right out of their grip. I prefer to keep my forearms bare, but in regards to protective armor, the fabric around the arms better have a grip.

3. Extra Fabric. This one is a given. However, I want to get into the specifics. When you’re in the air, momentum is your most powerful ally, and if there’s anything opposing or hindering that momentum, that spells trouble. Extra fabric can sometimes be good, such as around the legs. Not too much, obviously, but wearing loose or baggy pants while fighting with Nightwing’s fighting style works (as long as you can, you know, actually fight in them and not trip over the extra cloth). Around the middle? Nuh-uh, nope. Anything looping around your waist, hips, or rib cage is a liability if it’s not skin tight. The belt that Robin often wears is okay, as long as it’s wrapped pretty tight around him and doesn’t move. For the kind of stunts that Dick pulls off on a daily basis? I don’t think anything but a skintight bodysuit will help. For arms, extra fabric is ~okay~ but not preferable. And anything strapped to his back, as long as it’s securely in place, will actually help his momentum (so his escrima sticks or any other weapon/item you want to put in there is fine). Nothing around the neck, at ALL. That one issue in Batman where Dick wears a scarf is hot as hell, and sort of makes sense because they’re in the desert. But on missions, at the speed Nightwing fights and flies through the air, anything around his neck will choke him. This entire section definitely wasn’t an excuse to say you should just keep Dick in a skintight outfit, nope, not at all.

4. Spandex. While we’re on the subject of skintight outfits, I just want to point something out that isn’t necessarily important or anything. It’s just a general preference for me. I prefer costumes with a little weight on them. The adrenaline rush is intense for some of my more advanced stunts, and those are things that I bet Dick would consider basic. I prefer something with a little substance/weight/texture to it. Nothing too serious, and nothing too restricting, just something to keep me grounded and focused. We all know how much Dick likes being in the air, but I’m willing to bet he also needs a little extra touch to keep his head in the game. So if you’re designing a serious Nightwing suit, not for crack or fun headcanons or anything, I would steer clear from the spandex, gauze, and showy-light-gossamer fabrics. They do provide extra mobility and flexibility, but that’s because they’re one drop away from naked.

5. Joints. Okay this may seem a little contradictory based on the last point, but around the joints, especially hips and shoulders, the protective padding needs to ease up. It’s one of the hardest areas on the body to injure, after all, even for a professional. And second, I know I’m sounding like I’m repeating the obvious, but flexibility is of utmost importance. If the fabric doesn’t bend with Nightwing, then there’s no point. It can’t chafe, it can’t grind against itself, it can’t break. The material around major joints needs to be malleable.

Dos

Now that we’ve got that out of the way, let’s talk about what you can absolutely add to Nightwing’s costume to give it either a little pizzazz, or just your own personal touch.

1. Boots. Yes yes yes, boots are an absolute must! And it’s not just me thinking thigh-high boots are cool. Coming out of a big drop and other major stunts requires rolling on your back and then onto your feet. But Nightwing doesn’t fight with the one-hit-and-done style. (That’s more Jason’s thing. He plants himself like a tree and puts power behind a punch, kinda like Bruce, which is why boots-especially boot soles- are important for them.) Nightwing gets in a punch and flips away, then bounces back and gets in a kick and flips away, then bounces back and gets in another kick and flips away. You see where I’m going with this. Dick is constantly on the move, constantly on the verge of flipping back. The main way he does this is with his feet: landing lightly on the balls of his feet to absorb momentum before using that to hit back. Boots with fricion-specific soles are important, he cannot slide or skid. Also, ones that go higher up aren’t bad either: extra support is always welcome. As long as they don’t cover his knees and allow for ankle flexibility, they’re good to go. They may even help stop ankle dislocation. Anything you want to add to the boots? Go ahead. As long as it’s not gauzy ribbon or something too extra, or something that can easily get caught in something else, it’s good to go. In my performances, I like to cover my shins with something, it can range from simple high socks or performance boots to go with my costume. I particularly like Damian’s long lace up boots, especially in Super Sons. It’s a cute outfit, and it won’t hinder his fighting at all. As long as Dick double knots, he can wear those, and any other variants of boots.

2. Gloves. I’m not actually sure if Dick has ever been called “Fingerstripes” in canon, but I’ve seen it in fanon plenty of times. Regardless, it’s one of my favorite nicknames for him, and it does have a basis. The stripes on his gloves are an awesome artistic choice, and useful too. Assuming they have a different texture than the rest of his gloves, those fingerstripes could help with grip. Grip is one of the most important tools an aerialist can have. I have had grown men look at me with shock when they shake my hand because of my firm grip (and the calluses, ugh). I firmly believe that Dick Grayson has one of the strongest grips in the DC non-meta world, and I bet you he surpasses even a good amount of metas. Having a good, no-slip grip is essential, even if you’re just swinging from the surface for a second, or if the surface is another partner’s hand. Gloves, once again as long as they’re not too restricting, would be awesome with helping with that.

3. Wrist Braces. I said before that Dick can’t have arm braces because of the whole partner-grip thing. But with the amount of force and pressure Dick exerts on his hands on a daily basis, dislocations and sprains should be as common as a bruise. Hell, I’m sitting here typing this and my left wrist is sprained. Fanfic writers, here’s a helpful tip: you can write Dick with a sprained or dislocated or just a plain sore wrist anytime at all, and having him rub his hands with a grimace, rubbing lotion onto them, or doing wrist exercises in his free time is a go-to for if you need anything filler. Or, you know, it could even be part of the plot. Wrist braces help with this, they keep the joints in place and add a little extra stability to his movements. As long as they’re not interfering with wrist mobility, wrist braces are a very very good idea. When you think how long, think about the length of Peter Parker’s handmade web shooters. Long enough to be there, but not immediately noticeable. Also, make sure the material is something cloth, wrap, or gauze based. Anything too hard could scrape against the skin, cause cuts and bruises, and even cut off circulation. Unless it’s armor, it’s not comfortable or easy to do aerial maneuvers with.

4. Back Harness. To be honest, I have no idea what the official name for this piece of equipment even is. But the thing that holds Nightwing’s escrima sticks to his back. The thing that holds Deadpool’s katanas (in the movies, not the comics). The back-strap-harness thingy. That’s a go-for-it when it comes to costumes. Not only does it look badass and hot when it’s on your costume and you draw your weapons from it seamlessly like a boss, it’s practical and doesn’t interfere with your fighting at all. As I said, a majority of Nightwing’s moves rely on momentum. The back harness thingy won’t harm that at all. As long as it’s strapped to your back, unmoving and steady, it stays out of the way and may actually help you with your momentum. Drawing weapons from it is easy and seamless, and one of the quickest moves you can perfect, aside from drawing your weapon from thigh/calf holsters. But as I said before, Dick would probably stick to the back because, once again, momentum.

Okay this got much longer than I thought it would. But regardless, I hope this helps if you’re ever drawing or writing about the Nightwing suit and need specifics. Or hell, if you’re a cosplayer and need some information on how to make an accurate costume, here you go. Now I need to take a breather and chill, because while I considered myself a pretty recreational comic reader and not much of an analyzer, I had no idea how much I picked up about Dick’s individual fighting style and how that fits in with my own aerial experiences.

Q: Why are you writing this post?

A: Because during the Christmas holidays I started to receive attention from the Zootopia fandom which led me to re-discover some concepts that I thought I had made clear, and since this didn’t turn out to be true, I am forced to reiterate them.

Q: What happened?

A: I discovered that someone had reposted, obviously without my consent, an old comic of Aoimotion and mine on reddit, a site I don't like and on which I had already said not to publish my actually and old contents. This repost "reminded" this fandom of my existence, and after this event some people came to ask us questions such as "when Nick and Judy would reappear in our work?" and the like.

You can imagine how much it bothered me, so I went to reddit and wrote to immediately delete the content. Unfortunately, doing this I couldn’t help but notice how the post had become a place to waste insinuations and insults aimed at me and Aoimotion. In particular, the comments of three users stood out: @ggctuk , @owningsuperset7 and @hammytotherescue

Q: Why did these users get your attention?

A: ggctuk, which I have no idea who they are, have proclaimed themselves as the narrative voice of the events that have taken place between us and the fandom, providing a lot of incomplete and, in the worst case, completely wrong information, about why we left the fandom and about the alleged "abusive behaviors" we had against translators.

Owningsuperset7 spoke about us (like he does every time the occasion presents itself to him), defining us ungrateful towards the fandom "that had fed us". But "fed" in what sense? It seems to me that we have been those who have definitely "eaten" very little… or likes can be monetized, just like the views on youtube, and I didn't know it? Did they break the keyboard in order to put those likes on our works? If it’s so, I'm sorry, but I certainly wasn't the one who pointed the gun at their head to follow my work. Always remember that paying attention to a work is always and only a reader’s choice. No creator has power over these phenomena, we just create and publish, the rest is always an unknown factor. So expressing yourself as a seduced and abandoned lover on an old and free work doesn’t make you a victim, it only makes you ridiculous. Anyway, I know the subject, who had already decided in the past to talk on DeviantArt before I blocked him, and I decided not to tell him anything in that moment, also because, what can you say to a person who clearly has problems that go beyond fandom? Sometimes ignoring is the kindest choice you can make.

Hammytotherescue instead claimed that he and I were friends in the past, before the duo formed by me and aoimotion became toxic. Since I had no memory of this person and I hate when someone alludes to relationships with me that don't exist, I wrote to him privately on Tumblr asking him if he could kindly refresh my memory about this "friendship" he was bragging about.

Q: How did it end?

A: The conversation, which I report below because I, unlike him, have nothing to be ashamed of, is as follows:

As you can see, Hammy never replied to my last message . But in reality the story was not over. A few days ago, in fact, I discover that the user in question "vented" in the post of reddit, not under my comment (so that I received notification of his reply) but in response to another comment that had been left to me. Showing, as always, the incredible maturity of these people.

After reading this comment, I decided to act by reporting the user on reddit, but the answer I received can be summarized as: "since you are a content creator, you deserve insults regardless." In short, a response as useful and smart as the people who gave it to me. So don’t worry Hammy, you won't be banned from reddit because the only braincell shared by you users agrees that defining a toxic and manipulative person is, to quote one of the wise moderators I talked to, "a fairly typical level of criticism". All is well that ends well.

Q: You mentioned "concepts to reiterate". What would they be?

A: Let's start by denying what ggctuk wrote in that reddit's post, given how much popularity his comments have gained.

My split from this fandom started because I simply lost interest in Nick and Judy and preferred to do something else, something of my own. Black Jack gave us the opportunity to invent many original characters and they was those I wanted to work on. We have never worked for ulterior motives other than having fun together. When we recognized that we no longer have anything to give to this universe, we declared it openly and closed this chapter of our "artistic life". This split could take place in a peaceful and calm way, I would have taken my own path and you yours, since it was obvious, since BJ times, that you had very little interest in our original contents. You also reiterated this between the lines of these last comments, so really, I make a terrible effort to understand your logic of contents belonging to your fandom. It's not your fault, don't worry. You have been spoiled by this entrenched habit of creating any anthropomorphic animal and attributing it to your precious and super-nutritive fandom. Once you labeled this attitude at heresy, now everything is fine as long as it helps you keeping this universe going, honestly, I just pity you. However it seems that your obsession with me prevents you from accepting the fact that my life would have continued even without this fandom and that I would have lived very well even without the amount of likes that fanarts could give me. Indeed my life would be even more beautiful if I didn't have to waste time like I am doing now.

Both me and aoimotion together gave you a lot, and in the end we simply got it back. Jack is a prime example: yes, he is a character born from the scratches of Zootopia's artwork, but thanks to our work he has evolved to the point of becoming a completely original character. This fandom has not been able to accept it and until the end has tried to claim him as its own, and even now it can’t accept that we have instead taken him back, and even less can you bear that we are successfully using him in our original works, which is why you insist so much on his "Disney" origin, as if this defines his identity, and for months you have made fun of us saying that we were claiming something that belongs to Disney as our own. Unfortunately, beyond a doodle and a hint of a hypothetical background, Disney has absolutely nothing. Whatever weight you have attributed to "Jack Savage" is only thanks to our work, Disney has nothing to do with your mania and it has nothing to do with everything we've built up over the years. Still, you took our job and stuck it over the "Disney" label, and that was even when Black Jack was long gone, so don’t use that excuse anymore. You even tried to attribute Cynthia to the Disney universe by calling her "Skye", since you are so desperate to keep your fantasies going, and when you had nothing more to say, you said that my art style was "clearly inspired by Disney". Did you think I could condone such an attitude? I suppose these statements derive above all from the certainly very poor culture that you have of the world outside the fandom (or fandoms), however there are artists who WORKED for Disney, who TEACHED drawing techniques at the Disney Academy and who work at own productions with that style, without anyone attributing anything to the major. If you don't believe me, try using the web for something constructive, like doing some in-depth research on the subject.

As for the matter of our alleged abuses on translators, I will only say two things: the translations started because of my naivety, and we prohibited them because the translators abused their role and went out of control, acting as if the comics belonged to them and / or as if there was a special relationship of complicity between me and them. I'm sorry I gave false hopes to these people, unfortunately I didn't have time to realize the misunderstandings that were being created and how our work was being used. There is a clear difference between the fan content and the original content, so now more than even, less our work passes into the hands of others, the better it is for us.

Now let’s analyzing the brilliant messages of Hammy, both on Tumblr and on reddit:

In both cases, what I see is a desperate need to cling to Rem's "pretty" facade while simultaneously demolishing the person behind Aoimotion. These insinuations suggest that the only possible Rem to conceive for your narrow minds is the kind and lovely one, and everything I say and do that does not fall within this definition is the work of aoimotion.

I will never go into detail about the dynamics between me and her, because frankly it’s not your business and I don’t want to give you further ground to cultivate your absurd speculations and your degenerated ideas. If you have decided to treat us as two two-dimensional characters of some fourth category fan fiction born from your fragile minds and then feel disappointed or offended by my attitude or a severe response I can give you, you cannot help but blame yourself and not who is my friend .

But you have to get it into your heads that when you talk about us in a personal way, you refer only on the basis of two web profiles. You don't know us personally and above all you don't know me. Being an extremely reserved person, I always decided to use social networks to share my artistic side or my interests related to entertainment, nothing more, nothing less. "Rem289" has always been only a blog, a showcase on the web, I’ve never attributed a real emotional and above all personal value to it, even before Zootopia. For the rest I prefer to live my personal life off the web. Unfortunately, you have been so careless as to decide to hit my personal sphere, my friendships and my affections. So no, Aoi didn’t take over between you and me, but the person behind Rem289 took over and you paid the consequences.

Still on the subject of aoimotion, it seems that the moment this comment was written on DA has remained particularly impressed: https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/765376682/4647911119

This great insult, which among other things is attributed to her as if I didn’t think the same (if not worse) about you, has become the new reason why aoimotion is ugly and bad and is the reason why she deserves to be insulted and disparaged at the slightest opportunity, even during a conversation with me in which she’s not involved in any way.

Now, since this term seems to me rather dated to be used as a matter of indignation during your debates, and since I still find it rather ”soft” to use to outline my intolerance towards you, in order to give you another thing to think over, I will give you an attribute which seems more correct to me: you are sick. Confronting you is like talking to someone who has been brainwashed. You are a broken record that always says the same things over and over again. I can't even feel sorry for you, what I feel is just a great sense of unease. (Of course there are people that still participate in this fandom and are perfectly normal, but those are exceptions and they already know we think good of them.)

And it’s precisely your illness that prompted me to dissociate myself so violently from the fandom. Not aoimotion, as you have been saying for months between an insult and another that you address to her because perhaps you are too afraid of me to address them directly to me, which is rather contradictory since I should be the sweet and pretty one of the duo. After all, it's better to treat me like a poor brainless fool who lets herself be manipulated rather than admit that I also have my own ideas and that, you don’t say, you don't like them.

Q: In any case, you have no right to deprive your fans of old content they love so much, you just want to be spiteful! Why did all your old WildeHopps comics disappear from the web?

A: The decision to delete the contents created by me relating to the fandom from my web platforms or those shared with my partner was not born in the least out of spite or "punishment" towards the members of the fandom. It was a decision made to dissociate my name and my current work from fandom, because unfortunately it created difficulties for my image and real difficulties for readers to understand (you can go on and say that if people think your work is still Zootopia-related is not a big deal, but I assure you it is). All that came after, are only and exclusively speculations built on purpose to find the most sinister reasons of why it happened. Publishing content is only an accessory part of the job itself, a percentage of the process. Deciding to publish, not publish or cancel a publication is at the pure expense of the author, and no consumer has the right to impose his will on the creator. I understand that they are perhaps too complex concepts for you, since it’s clear that you are used to measuring the value of things based on the likes they receive, but this current of thought also exists and I hope it will be useful to you someday, in the remote possibility that decide to take moments of deep reflection (which would be more and more useful than tapping your fingers on the keyboard).

(Little curiosity: in the last few weeks we have forwarded about twenty reports to various sites to remove our old contents posted there without our permission. Not only all twenty reports have been accepted, but the contents have all been removed in less than 12 hours from the date of reporting. This is to remind you that if we don’t want our content on the web, we have them removed and it’s the reposters who pay for it, not us.)

Q: Well, however you can't force us not to talk badly about you or aoimotion, in fact, you can't stop us from believing that she's been manipulating you for years. Almost certainly it’s she who is writing this post without your knowledge, isn't it?

A: The people of the web are notoriously lazy and are therefore often uninformed and constipated in developing their own concepts. They spit sentences without even knowing what they’re talking about, they choose "comfortable" truths, such as the fact of attributing to aoimotion every not nice word that comes from me, and when this phenomenon is reflected on real persons, unfortunately it’s quite difficult to manage.

We are attributed with labels, words, concepts, faults, relationships that don’t belong to us and that are difficult to get away from. A simple comment or a wrong statement towards a person can spread like wildfire and end up marking them for life. Needless to say, these conditions often prevent these same people from continuing with their activities, which instead are healthy, in a serene and peaceful way. Even now, instead of drawing, I’m writing this latest post to defend me and my partner from your sick slanders. Those who allow themselves the luxury of damaging the "active personalities" of the web are people who fully enjoy anonymity behind a screen, and often people who have the matter of regulating them (like the reddits moderators, who are a joke at best) limit themselves to considering certain behaviors "ordinary” in the creator / consumer relationship. The mere fact of normalizing certain behaviors doesn’t smooth out the rules of civilized life, makes these "authorities" complicit and therefore only adds a problem. It’s more than evident that some people are not yet able to distinguish the boundary that exists between objective opinion and direct and personal insult, but from people who lose sleep at night because they have been defined as “lunatic” I don’t expect anything less. Who knows what you will do now that I have called you sick.

I conclude with a message to the interested party:

@hammytotherescue: I don't know how old you are, however, judging by what you write and how you write it and how you act, I deduce that you should not be more than 14-15 years old. Unfortunately I regret to tell you that the fact you are a minor doesn’t mean that you don’t have to take responsibility for your actions, and if you still have doubts about understanding where you have gone wrong I advise you to ask your parents for advice. I gave you the opportunity to confront me but you ran away to cry on a public platform. Hasn't anyone taught you that real life doesn't work like that? If, on the other hand, you are an adult, I sincerely feel sorry for you, I say this from the bottom of my heart.

I know how comfortable it is to hide behind a group or in this case a fandom to vent one's dislikes towards the individual. This time you and your friends have received the same treatment, you have not caught generic appellations addressed to the fandom but I decided to speak to you personally. My only advice is to use this experience to learn how it behaves on the web, and when you have learned it, you could teach it to all your friends, perhaps starting with @owningsuperset7.

For @ggctuk: I hope you will appreciate my effort in writing this long post, as so the next time you talk about us again, you can use it as a reference to explain how things went 🤗

How to connect a gaming router to a modem

I haven’t done a tag in forever and I saw @slavicafire doing this one so I’m just gonna jump on the bandwagon because I unfortunately like to talk about myself 1. are you named after anyone? No...as far as I know the story goes like this: My parents couldn’t, for the life of them, decide on a name so my aunt bought one of these baby name books, opened a random page and pointed at a random name and then my parent’s went “Huh, Melissa...sounds nice.” And because my dad wanted me to have a ~~special~~ name he added ‘Laura’ as well. (And instead I just go with Mela because I don’t like either of my two names) 2. when’s the last time you cried?

About 3 hours ago actually. During Christmas time and the days leading up to it I always miss my dear grand ma the most and today especially

3. do you have any kids?

Gods no, and if I ever do be sure they’ll be adopted because the thought of pregnancy scares the living hell out of me (babies are literally parasites growing inside of you fight me)

4. do you use sarcasm a lot? To quote @slavicafire here because I could not come up with a better answer: “it takes every inch of the power left in my cold-afflicted flesh not to answer this one sarcastically.” 5. what’s the first thing you notice about people?

Probably hair and then the finer details of their face because I love interesting faces

6. what’s your eye color?

Green! Which is my second favorite part about my appearance, only falling behind my natural fangs

7. scary movie or happy ending?

If I have to decide I think I prefer a happy ending but honestly neither? I do like scary movies and happy endings but I prefer unexpected, neutral, ambiguous or even sad endings

8. any special talents?

I trained myself to make my knuckles crack because they didn’t do that naturally, does that count?

9. where were you born? In the south of Thuringia, the town sucks but the forest are wonderful

10. what are your hobbies?

Oh your usual generic tumblr user stuff: drawing, video games, watching movies and shows, cursing people on a daily basis, worshiping Cate Blanchett

11. do you have any pets?

Unfortunately I’m not allowed to, my landlord appears to be missing quite a few brain cells

12. what sports do you play/have you played?

I used to do Taekwondo for around 7 years, now I would like to join a basketball team but honestly I hate moving and a knee injury prevents me from doing so anyway

13. how tall are you? 170cm, I came to realize that I’m considered a ‘tall girl’ in the local lesbian and bi girl community but I do not feel like a tall girl 14. favorite subject in school?

Oh boy...English probably because I never really had to put much effort into it...or during the last few years in school no effort at all actually

15. dream job? I used to say full time artist but honestly? Studying translation has been a lot of fun so my dream job is being a successful translator, for literature preferably As always, tagging anyone who wants to do this!

Working Remotely: The Ultimate Guide to Managing Remote Employees

2020 has become the turning point when companies around the world switched to remote management — letting employees work from home. The definition of remote work includes both full-time and partial telecommuting. If you are wondering whether your company should make this change, there are a couple of key factors to consider.

According to a recent survey by GetApp, the number of remote workers in 2020 has increased by a factor of four over the 2010 numbers. For example, 78% of respondents claim they work from home some of the time on a regular basis. If 36% of people working remotely once a week doesn’t seem like a huge number, compare it with 9.5% in the 2010 survey.

The main reasons so many employers and employees prefer remote working are flexible working conditions and better-recruiting opportunities. Technology plays a part too. New devices and cloud-based services appear every year and make telecommuting more seamless than ever before.

However, not every business is successful in making the change often because they don’t have the resources to be effective in a remote work environment. It seems that the biggest problem entrepreneurs face is a lack of experience in remote management. This article aims to change that by covering all the pros and cons of remote work, as well as best practices to adapt to a new reality.

Companies Supporting Remote Management

These examples show that, no matter how big your team is, it is quite possible for remote management. The important tasks are to develop a robust management system and invest time and money in developing and maintaining the corporate culture. It is also noteworthy that most remote businesses are involved in technology. Digital solutions, software production, financial services – all of these can be easily moved online without inconveniencing the teams.

2. Hubstaff

Hubstaff produces time tracking software for teams. Probably using their own product is their key to success in remote work.

3. Hotjar

Hotjar specializes in analyzing users’ website behavior. The team encourages self-development as well as supports remote work 100%.

4. Automattic

Tools for Managing Remote Teams

1. Plans and Schedules

Everyone should know what is going on and what their role is. Regular online meetings help teams exchange information, ask questions, and resolve issues. But that’s not all you can do. The most efficient way to monitor project progress is to use one of the tracking apps or services. Tools like Trello, Hubstaff, Asana, or Wrike work great for remote teams, as they give visibility to what everyone is doing. This way, all members of the team can see project status and updates in real-time.

2. Employee Training

When face-to-face coaching isn’t an option, take time to organize a knowledge-base for your employees. It should include corporate culture rules, useful sources of information, a list of tools used for work, and instructions on how to use them. Invest time in writing these guidelines so that newcomers don’t feel overwhelmed when they join your company. Some people find it easier to acquire information through reading manuals, while others prefer watching videos.

If necessary, you can record video tutorials for every program your business uses. Tools like Movavi, OBS Studio, or ActivePresenter let you record your screen and create step-by-step instructions as a result.

3. Collaboration

Thanks again to cloud services, because they are key to effective online work. Google Apps is a popular platform for sharing and editing documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and other file types with a group of people. Online collaboration keeps everyone in sync and allows multiple people to work on one document simultaneously.

Corporate Communication

There are several types of remote teams, but they all share the same basic principles. Whether it’s a temporary situation or you are entirely abandoning your office premises, the most important thing to remember is that interpersonal contact makes teams more productive. When you’re sitting next to each other, it’s much easier to literally turn to your colleague for advice. But in a virtual team, communication may fade into the background.

1. Tools

The first and most important thing to do when you switch to remote work is establishing specific communication channels for your team. Optimally, there should be one messenger and one video conferencing tool (or a program that combines both) for the whole company. You can use different chats and channels for separate teams of developers, designers, content managers, and so on.

Before determining the messenger platform once and for all, test several and get feedback from your staff. There is no point in imposing an app that everyone dislikes, just because it suits you.

2. Video Conferencing

Depending on your team’s size, group calls can vary from a structured conversation to a chaotic chatter. Here are some tips for organizing a successful video conference call:

Make it a rule to join a conference call a few minutes in advance. This shows respect for your team, and you don’t waste time waiting for everyone. Meetings begin on time, and everything goes according to schedule.

Make sure everyone has a headset and a webcam. Headphones reduce background noises that can interfere with the conversation, while a web camera adds visual expression.

Write a concise agenda for each meeting. Include all the essential documents, links, and a plan, so that everyone knows whether the issue involves them or not.

3. Group Chats

A non-work chat is an excellent alternative to a break room, where everyone can share their news, discuss recent events, or smile at a cat video. Place a virtual wall between work talk and fun chats. Discuss work issues only in dedicated chat rooms. This way, no one misses anything just because they’ve muted the non-work chat, and you talked about the whole company strategy there.

4. Offline Meet-Ups

Communication in real life is vital. That’s why it is essential to have corporate events once or twice a year, to which every member of the team is invited. Team-building sessions, parties, even work meetings boost morale, motivate people, and make them feel included and united.

Challenges and Solutions

While everything may look good on paper, in reality, managing remote employees is one of the hardest things to do. The challenges remote companies face every day involve personnel issues, onboarding problems, training difficulties, and other critical issues. Addressing them is what a good manager must learn to do.

1. Organization

Choose a system to organize your work process and actually stick to it. If you set up rules and don’t pay attention when someone breaks them, it can disrupt the whole structure. Even though remote work implies more freedom of time management, you and your team should not forget about self-discipline. Make sure everyone meets their deadlines, and don’t leave critical errors unresolved.

2. Working Hours

One of the reasons a team may work remotely is distance. The opportunity to work remotely doesn’t force a worker to move to another city or country. That’s why everyone on your team can keep to different time zones and different schedules. Keep that in mind, when you organize a meeting, you need to find a time that works for every participant.

Another problem related to time revolves around personal habits. One of your team members may get up at 8 a.m. and finish their business day at 5 p.m, whereas another employee woke up two hours ago and has just started working. This can be resolved by establishing ground rules to choose certain hours when everyone is required to be active and present.

3. Security Issues

Your company doubtless has a store of sensitive information. In order to protect that information, require your employees to use VPN services or remote desktop software. The purpose of a VPN is not only to mask your location but to provide a secure channel for data exchange. This means you can be sure that your corporate resources are safe for your remote team to use.

4. Setting up a Workplace

As a boss, it is your responsibility to ensure that every employee has all the resources they need for the remote work if you initiate it. If possible, provide your team with the laptops, PCs, or other devices they may need. Make sure everyone is comfortable with their workspace and can complete their tasks efficiently and on time.

5. Lack of Communication

If you feel your team suffers from the absence of informal conversations, those can move online too. You can talk about the latest news or TV shows and drink coffee, just as you did every morning in the office; you can play games or even set up a book club. This really helps during self-isolation and makes you feel less alone.

6. Hiring

Due to the globalization of technology, hiring remote employees doesn’t require as much organization, and it may be even easier to manage than a face-to-face interview. The candidate will feel more comfortable because they’re in familiar surroundings, and the conversation can go more smoothly. Whether it’s a phone call or a video conference (which is taking over the world of job interviews), it can be as efficient as if you invited a potential employee to your office.

Pros and Cons

Organizing a productive remote work environment may take a lot of work, so consider all the pros and cons before embarking on this journey. Some things may be crucial when it comes to making a final decision, while other situations maybe just a slight inconvenience. Weigh every argument and think about how you can overcome possible obstacles.

Pros

You don’t need to set up and maintain an office, so it saves you money.

Your potential workforce is not limited to people from your city.

Members of your team can manage their work hours more freely.

Your employees don’t waste time and money commuting.

Everyone can adjust their workspace according to their preferences.

The company can work 24/7 if there are workers from different parts of the world.

Cons

You will have to learn how to conduct effective remote management.

Some people may have trouble adjusting to working from home.

Not every business can entirely rely on remote work.

Time zone differences can affect your team’s efficiency.

It takes longer to build an influential corporate culture.

Fewer opportunities for informal communication may affect your more introverted colleagues.

Final thoughts

Many of these ideas may seem obvious, but they all play an important role in remote work. Your employees will have to learn how to work remotely, while you, their boss and role model, will acquire the skills for productive management via a computer screen.

It is advisable to implement new processes like this gradually. You should probably start with a few employees working from home, and if this experience is successful, then try to expand the remote work setup to your other team members.

Learn from the best, but don’t forget that your company is like a unique ecosystem that needs individual adjustments in order to make it the best place for employment. Listen to your employees too, then your company will surely live long and prosper.
