#you always help me with these

[teegeeteegee]

I got you answer them all right now, lmao!!! For 2023 fic asks how about #9, #10, and #30 😊

At this point, I am almost desperate enough to answer all of the questions, lmao! 🤣

9. What fic meant the most to you the write?

That would be "Dinner Date" because it is the first fic I ever posted online. I was extremely nervous when I did it, and I had no idea what the reactions would be assuming I received any in the first place. It felt like my heart tried to escape from my chest when I saw there were comments for this fic. It took me a whole ten minutes to gather myself before I read them. 😂 However, they were all positive and mentioned certain parts they liked in the fic. In addition, one of the comments was from an writer whose works I absolutely adore and am somewhat envious of. That gave me the confidence to continue to write and post fics online. It also helped the AO3 community is friendly and supportive for the most part, which I sadly cannot say about other sites. Because of everything, "Dinner Date" will always have a special place for me. 😊

10. What fic made you feel the happiest to work on?

"Unclogging Love (Plumbers & Princesses)" without question. I have said this a few times before, but "Unclogging Love" is my personal favorite fic I wrote. I came up with the concept but had a hard time finding the time to write it out. I thought it would eventually fade away but after a week, it still took up valuable real estate in my brain. 😂 I knew I had to write the story, and it was one I knew I would not stop until it was complete. Moreover, it is the only fic I never was frustrated about or stumped on and was disappointed when I had to stop working on it when I either had to take a break or do something else. For some reason, I expected it to be the most popular fic, which was mostly because of how much fun it was for me to write. However, that did not turn out to be the case. 😂 Regardless, it is still my second most viewed fic, so all is not completely lost. 😆

30. What's something that you want to write in 2024?

I know for sure I want to continue my Pauline series. I am working on the next entry and hope to have it up some time next month. So far, I have only written Mario stories and have intentions of continuing to do so (which may or may not include a long AU series). However, I do want to branch out and write for other series. Some series include Final Fantasy, Trials of Mana, and The Legend of Zelda (I plan on playing BotW and TotK some time in the near future), just to name a few. Also, while this is a longshot right now, I want to venture into some original content at some point. The most important thing I want to do, however, is to improve in my writing. I still feel I have a lot of work to do, but that makes it the more fun. With that, here is to a fruitful 2024!

Today my therapist introduced me to a concept surrounding disability that she called "hLep".

[plain-text version of this post can be found under the cut]

Which is when you - in this case, you are a disabled person - ask someone for help ("I can't drink almond milk so can you get me some whole milk?", or "Please call Donna and ask her to pick up the car for me."), and they say yes, and then they do something that is not what you asked for but is what they think you should have asked for ("I know you said you wanted whole, but I got you skim milk because it's better for you!", "I didn't want to ruin Donna's day by asking her that, so I spent your money on an expensive towing service!") And then if you get annoyed at them for ignoring what you actually asked for - and often it has already happened repeatedly - they get angry because they "were just helping you! You should be grateful!!"

And my therapist pointed out that this is not "help", it's "hLep".

Sure, it looks like help; it kind of sounds like help too; and if it was adjusted just a little bit, it could be help. But it's not help. It's hLep.

At its best, it is patronizing and makes a person feel unvalued and un-listened-to. Always, it reinforces the false idea that disabled people can't be trusted with our own care. And at its worst, it results in disabled people losing our freedom and control over our lives, and also being unable to actually access what we need to survive.

So please, when a disabled person asks you for help on something, don't be a hLeper, be a helper! In other words: they know better than you what they need, and the best way you can honor the trust they've put in you is to believe that!

Also, I want to be very clear that the "getting angry at a disabled person's attempts to point out harmful behavior" part of this makes the whole thing WAY worse. Like it'd be one thing if my roommate bought me some passive-aggressive skim milk, but then they heard what I had to say, and they apologized and did better in the future - our relationship could bounce back from that. But it is very much another thing to have a crying shouting match with someone who is furious at you for saying something they did was ableist. Like, Christ, Jessica, remind me to never ask for your support ever again! You make me feel like if I asked you to call 911, you'd order a pizza because you know I'll feel better once I eat something!!

Edit: crediting my therapist by name with her permission - this term was coined by Nahime Aguirre Mtanous!

Edit again: I made an optional follow-up to this post after seeing the responses. Might help somebody. CW for me frankly talking about how dangerous hLep really is.

Jettwins lore, right?

Based on this:

[thevioletcaptain]

i genuinely don't care how good a piece of ai generated art or writing looks on the surface. i don't care if it emulates brush strokes and metaphor in a way indistinguishable from those created by a person.

it is not the product of thoughtful creation. it offers no insights into the creator's life or viewpoint. it has no connection to a moment in time or a place or an attitude. it has no perspective. it has no value.

it's empty, it's hollow, and it exists only to generate clicks (and by extension, ad revenue.)

it's just another revolting symptom of the disease that is late stage capitalism, and it fucking sucks.

just thinking about erik making his house accessible on genosha

all the other mutants wondering why this tall guy made all his furniture low to the ground

they express their concerns about his back

then it all makes sense when he brings charles to live on genosha

“Oh he was just down bad this whole time”

I really feel like one of the best details in “A Scandal in Bohemia” that I never see people fixate on enough is that the story starts with Watson stopping in to see Holmes at Baker Street on a complete whim, because he happens to see that he’s home (and Watson is now married and living elsewhere). Like he doesn’t send word first, he’s not invited, he just shows up and surprises Holmes. Which is not that weird but then Holmes is like “oh good, I’ve got a case anyway, you might as well hang out!” which just makes it funnier when the King shows up and is like “I’d really rather speak to you alone, actually” and Watson tries to leave and Holmes is just like “anything you can say to me, you can say to my best friend John Watson, and if you ask him to leave, I would consider it a grave insult, you would be my enemy and I will not help you ever!!” And the king is like “…ok” and just moves on.

like, that is crazy behavior. Holmes is talking about how there’s probably lots of money in this case, and then almost turns away the client for…not knowing who the fuck Watson is?? He’s not even supposed to be there?? He just came to say hi?? “It is both or none”… girl, GET UP.

there is zero basis for this, but I can't get this thought of my head

I don't know why I decided to draw it this way

jealous! viktor x reader (headcanons + tiny scenarios)

summary: viktor sees you talking with a friend and get jealous.

content warning: idk if it counts as a cw but jealousy?? also, i made with s1 viktor in mind!

author notes: heyyy, so sorry this one is little, im still trying to find motivation after the end of the series but i think it turned out cute! thank u for the request and hope u like it!! :)

» it was a common sight to see you walking up and down piltover’s academy, working or just chilling on lunch breaks, but every time viktor would approach you, you were already with someone. sometimes an unknown person, other times with a friend, laughing and joking, touching them in such a sweet way, side by side in the aisles.

» he looked at you both, blood boiling and shaky hands. if you looked at him, it was possible to see his lips forming a thin line, brows furrowing, his left eye almost twitching. oh, he was jealous.

» he felt angry at himself to feel like this, he didn't mean to be jealous at all, but he wanted to steal you away, just for a second, and be the one by your side, be the one you smiled to, the one you’ve been touching so sweetly.

» he wanted to reach for you, to interrupt your silly conversation about whatever you two have been talking about, he wanted to share his new discoveries with you, he wanted to be in their place so bad.

» but he couldn't complain, not when you waved a goodbye at your friend, and turned your body, recognizing viktor, eyes lighting up immediately, smiling from ear to ear.

“viktor!”, you shouted, voice echoing in the aisle while you walked to him, “i’ve been looking for you all day. you wouldn't believe what happened!”

he looked at you, expression softening, eyes shining, mimicking yours, his thin lips now turning into a little smile, “yeah? tell me."

» soon all the jealousy melted away, now, he is the one walking by your side.
