Update on my life past self, we are 20 years old now. Still going strong on the art. We are actually in figure drawing class and doing a whole lot better than you would think. Still have Sky as a best friend, still doing everything with her. We are driving to dads now, although we don’t go much anymore due to a lot of fighting. Mom and I have officially watched over 85 horror movies together, gunning for 100 horror movies. Don’t have a job anymore but we are applying to be a substitute. Still not dating and still friends with Vivian as well. Baylor is walking and running now and he can say “ister” which is his way of saying sister. Everyone else is still doing pretty good. We did get our room painted and decorated by the way. It’s a stormy grey with dark burgundy accent wall. Fake leaves, skulls, and candles are all around us and we have a fan and a moon lamp too. Papa is alive somehow, still at Pam’s. Pam and dad don’t talk anymore. Still get sick from heat but haven’t fainted again. We did not get invited to Pam’s Christmas though. We are in March of 2024 now. Right about to go on spring break to Texas, going to great wolf lodge again. Still love sushi. We are still doing good. Getting good with witchcraft as well. Remember to breathe! And focus on the moment rather than thinking of the future!!!!

Letter to my 13-16 year old self

Please don't write anything on Wattpad. It was embarrassing to read now that you grew up a bit. You're 19 now, and boy have we changed. Also, don't give up your dream on becoming an artist! I know we wanted to write a book before highschooler, but realistically that was never going to happen. Now, we are getting our degree in art. Who would have thought. We have an actual best friend too, one who we have a key to her house, have art "dates" and have fun all the time with. We also drive now! I know we were really scared earlier but it's fine now. Were working on driving to dad's still, but that should come soon. We have a job too. We used to work at Ochoa Elementary but that got old real soon. Kids are gross and annoying btw. Now we work at a garden shop and trying to get a 2nd job. we are very close to getting our room painted too. Everything is clean, and instead of books, our closet is now filled up with art supplies. we are very close to living the artist dream life. We also went to Europe! That was an awesome trip. We stopped dating around 15 years old, and that was the best thing we ever did. Vivian is still our friend too. She's great. We also have a little brother now. A half brother on dad's side. He's cute and perfect. His name is Travis Baylor. We call him little bear after the Baylor Bears. he's crawling now, and loves you!. Kinley is great too. She's growing up and we don't fight with her nearly as much anymore. We also are obsessed with horror movies, and watch a new one with mom every week. We also live sushi now too. I also discovered recently that we can faint if we are outside in the heat for too long without drinking water. Scared papa half to death. Nene and papa are doing fine too! Papa Tune isn't doing too good right now though. He broke his ribs again, had been in the hospital several times now. He lives with Pam. Btw, Pam and dad are fighting. She practically kidnapped papa from the hospital and they had a HUGE fight. Him and Alex are no longer welcomed to her house or Christmas. We are, but idk if we are going. it's June 2023 now, so we will see. On our first semester of college, I got 2 D's. Mom wasn't happy at all, but she got over it eventually. Our lowest grade the next semester was an 82. We also got rid of our acne! We started to take birth control because we have PCOS. Thats what stopped it. We are growing up now, but life is good. So start drawing, and keep dreaming. We haven't stopped yet.

Where is all the Leopold Fitz x Reader fanfics and smut?????

Here i am, randomly wanting a agent of shield girl who had a huge crush on fitz for the longest time and now she has to go into the framework to save him and it turns out that her regret is never telling him her feelings so in the framework, which leads to Fitz having an affair with the reader and needs to blow off some steam after finding out that Skye is with Shield, not knowing the girl he has been fucking is the exact same case, and now she's acting weird and shy, so he either has to fuck it out of her, or something......

People are Strange by Echo and the Bunnymen

if you can’t choose one, reblog with your favorites in the tags!

[wickedly-grim]

Why you need to start reblogging fics:

Okay, saw a post about this, thought I would make a post explaining further. And this may make me sound like a bitch or ungrateful and that is not my intention. This is a conversation we, as a content consuming community, need to have—need to keep having.

And if you think we don’t need to have it, these are screenshots of notes on some of my fics—fics that have been posted for 7 months to 3 years. (And please keep in mind, I’ve been in the tumblr writing community for a while, so these numbers don’t even begin to correlate with new up-and-coming writers)

Does this seem right to you??? (the difference between likes and reblogs)

If you are saying ‘why yes, you are doing great. you have so many notes.’ you are not getting the point of this post—so let’s talk about it.

I appreciate the likes, believe me I do, but please understand: likes do nothing for content creators.

1. Let’s first talk about why reblogging is so important:

Tumblr works on the reblog system (it’s not like Instagram, twitter or tiktok). In order for content to spread and appear on people’s dashs, it needs to be reblogged. That is the only way for content to be seen.

2. Let’s also do a quick take on why people don’t reblog (this is just what I have come across/seen people say):

“I commented, isn’t that enough?” — comments are fantastic! I LOVE to hear what you have so say, but like…you can also comment on a reblog. A comment + reblog = a marriage proposal from me, I swear. Cuz just comments tend to say: liked it but it wasn’t good enough for me to share with others (-̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥᷄_-̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥᷅ )

“I don’t want people seeing what I read” — unless your conservative grandma is on here and you really don’t want her seeing you reblog gay smut, I’m sorry that’s a stupid excuse.

“I don’t want to clutter up my blog” — I’m sorry, what??? This is tumblr. We are not influencers on here. And if you’re tying to be, I gotta tell ya something, buddy: you’re on the wrong platform. But if it REALLY bothers you that much—I’ve seen some people make a sideblog where they reblog fics. Of course, this doesn’t give the same traction because those blogs tend to have less followers, but at least it’s something.

“It’s too much to scroll through” — bruh, that’s why writers put the ‘keep reading’ line break in their posts. And if they don’t, well, that’s a whole separate issue.

“Tags are enough for content to get spread” — this is simply just not true. People don’t always search through tags and the tag they look under might not be one that the fic has. And, even if people do stalk the tags, the content that is at the top is content that has the most engagement. This doesn’t help creators that don’t already have some traction and it doesn’t do much even for those who do. And before you say, ‘go under recently posted’ - not many people do that and, even when they do, they still miss content because ✮ tumblr algorithm ✮ (◔_◔)

3. And let’s be real—

Most of the reblogs and feedback I receive comes from other writers that I have befriended.

“Support writers” doesn’t just mean “writers support writers” it means “content consumers, support writers.”

Other platforms like AO3, Wattpad, and/or FF.NET — buddy, it ain’t better over there. trust me, I’m on em’ all.

Why do you think so many writers disappear from writing community? Why do you think so many of them stop creating? Why do you think we rarely get new ones?

It’s because they put hours upon hours of their sweat, blood, and tears into motherfucking masterpieces and those masterpieces just end up at the bottom of the void.

Yes, yes writers should write for themselves, ultimately, but it’s nice to get some validation—to get someone saying ‘hey, yeah I’m here. I’m seeing you.”

And that is why I try my VERY hardest to reblog with a large comment!

So, please, content consumers, support your content creators.
