i started drawing this right after posting, but people in the notes have been brainstorming some amazing name ideas too lmao

endless list of MCU characters → darcy lewis

It’s so beautiful!

Please return us to a world where Notp and squick are used for a ship you don’t like instead of just making up a load of bullshit about how immoral it is or w/e lol 

a short selection of concepts and phrases that used to be commonplace in fandom and we’d really benefit from making that a thing again:

NOTP: the opposite of an OTP (One True Pairing). It is a ship a fan strongly dislikes. The word is a portmanteau of ‘no’ and ‘OTP’ and thus is not a contraction of any particular phrase.

Squick: anything that is a deep-seated, visceral turn-off. Squicks may be shared by many fans or be specific to one; one person’s kink may be another person’s squick.

YKINMKATO, or kink-tomato: Your Kink Is Not My Kink, And That’s Okay: used to indicate support for fannish diversity and to distinguish between disapproval or kink shaming and simply having different taste.

DLDR: Don’t Like, Don’t Read: a phrase used to warn against complaints about an aspect of fic or meta. A “live and let live” philosophy of fandom, which places the responsability for avoiding content one doesn’t want to see on the side of the fanwork consumer, rather that on the creator’s.

SALS: Ship And Let Ship: similar to the above specifically about shipping tastes.

YMMV: Your Mileage May Vary: a phrase used to acknowledge that any given individual’s personal opinion on the topic at hand may differ due to their own tastes, standards, values, experiences, etc.

As the OP points out, all of these crucially imply no moral judgment of what they’re designing.

(definitions lifted more or less wholesale from fanlore’s relevant pages)

Curious Cabins Season 1 by Stefan Große Halbuer

“I know we’re all really into how Jane Foster looks as the Mighty Thor, especially her sculpted arms, but I just need to emphasize how great she looks. Whenever I do bicep curls these days, I mutter under my breath, ‘This one’s for you, Natalie Portman’.” - Petrana Radulovic (Polygon)

OMG!!!! The teaser trailer is finally here!!! I’m way too excited to type this 🥰😍❤️💙

Ok so I've found a way to describe what Neurodivergent Can't Do Task Mode™ feels like to neurotypicals

So you know how you can't make yourself put your hand down on a hot stovetop? There's a part of your brain that stops you from doing that? That's what Neurodivergent Can't Do Task Mode™ feels like

Even if we want to do it, there's a barrier stopping us from doing it, and it's really hard to override

And why does our brain see the task as a hot stovetop? Because when neurotypicals finish a task, they get serotonin, but we don't get that satisfaction after completing a task. A neurotypical wouldn't get serotonin from putting their hand on a hot stovetop, it would just hurt. When we can't do a task, it's because our brain knows that the task will hurt (metaphorically) and wants to avoid that.

It's not that we're choosing not to do the task, it's that our brain is physically preventing us from doing it.

Neurotypicals can and should reblog but please don't add anything

(Sorry/not sorry about the random bolding, it makes it easier for us to read)

Oh that’s a great example. It’s not even really a metaphor in some cases. Because this is exactly what some of our brains are doing. For one reason or another the brain thinks that the task in question is dangerous or harmful and the mechanism keeping us from doing it is a survival mechanism.

I am but a horse rearing away from a suspicious paper bag while neurotypicals laugh at me for reacting sensibly to environmental threats.

genuinely terrifying how adhd will have you be fully aware of the responsibilities you’re neglecting and yet its like you’re being piloted by a super chill hedonistic demon who can’t hear you/doesnt care

I recommend the original Land Before Time, Never Ending Story, one of the Aladdin sequels (but not Aladdin itself), a random episode of Inspector Gadget, and a copy of The Wizard of Oz so warped it might have been bootlegged from the original theater run.

I agree with all of these and will add:

- an 80s fantasy movie (the Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Willow, Legend, etc)

- the Disney movie that came out when they were under 6

- the Disney movie that came out when they were 6-10

- a made-for-tv movie of a branded toy's TV show, or a couple of random episodes, none of which should slap as hard as they do

- a movie recorded from TV that they've learned the exact timing to fast forward through the ad breaks and hit play within a couple seconds of the show coming back on

Darcy: If someone tried to make me dig my own grave, I would say no. They’re going to kill me anyway and I’d love to die the way I lived; avoiding manual labor.

REMEMBER SKIP-IT FROM THE 90’S

my weapon of choice during school yard fights 

DnD campaign but the only weapons are 90′s toys @riskpig

Distance weapon: those sky dancer propeller toys.

I’ll allow it.

I have but two words:

Are those a weapon or piece of armor?

It got better since I last saw it

This is so weird bc being born in 1997 I saw all these toys… old, dirty, and faded by the sun

it’s so weird to think of them as new and current toys rather than the relics of a bygone age

And the kicker:

useless rosetta stone

scalia from my emotional support blue hellsite

i decided all plays are time loops btw. it’s true because they keep getting performed over and over and over and the ending never changes and they can never escape it. if you even care.

the fact that we need 8 hours of sleep is ridiculous we should only need 4 and the other 4 should be used to be cozy in your bed and rub your legs together like a cricket and listen to music and think about your little scenarios
