I need the porn bots to please kindly calm their tits. I’m still mentally in a time where tumblr found my elbow too risqué to post without flagging and now I’m fortifying the walls of Helm’s Deep against a tildewave of bots who all share the same five scantily clad profile pics.
Guys please I beg you no more
OP PLEASE GIVE US THE BREAKDOWN!!!!!
Before JK Rowling fell into the anti-trans blackhole, she campaigned against Scottish independence.
She helped bankroll the campaign to keep Scotland in the UK, and a lot of pro-independence campaigners who were fans felt disappointed and let down.
During the campaign she referred to pro-independence voters as death eaters, and became good friends with misogynists who frequently targeted women in political roles (councillor or member of Parliament)
Scotland recently passed a law to reform the Gender Recognition Act. This makes this process for trans people in Scotland easier by reducing the bureaucratic red-tape and invasive procedures that people have to jump through to obtain a Gender Recognition Certificate.
JK Rowling and her bigoted friends have been attacking this legislation and trans people for some time.
The British Government, in an unprecedented move, have decided they are going to block the legislation. They have not done this to any law since the Scottish Parliament was reinstated.
Scotland leans more to the left than England does. By doing this the British government (and the opposition parties that aren’t fighting against it) are surrendering the progressive case for the United Kingdom to still exist.
If they can override this law, they can override any law. With over 50% of Scotland supporting independence and younger, more progressive people becoming eligible to vote every day, the death of the United Kingdom is inevitable.
England doing dumb shit and getting countries under their control to go “nope, we’re out” and doing a lot of separation stuff has a lot of historical precedent.

I always forget that gas giants are, you know, made of gas, and not just smooth plastic color. The atmosphere is full of clouds, and the entire planet is atmosphere!

your unhinged Shepard is my favourite Shepard i've ever read i think, much love <3
This has honestly made my day! I’m a decade or so late to the fandom and it’s always pretty nerve wracking playing in such a well established sandbox. But then again that’s the joy of Shepard as a character I guess!
Idk, I have a lot of emotions when it comes to my wildly unhinged Shepard!
Thank you for the lovely message and I’m so glad you had fun!

“You did say you wanted to spend some time alone together,” Shepard offers. The surveillance camera in the corner of the room doesn’t count as company. “We’re alone; we’re not currently being shot at. Hell, I’d say the date is going pretty well, all things considered.” He’s even wearing something that closely resembles formalwear. Maybe that’s where they’re going wrong. Every time they try and squeeze in a little time for themselves, they forego body armor, and someone inevitably tries to murder them.
Kaidan tugs his wrists to draw Shepard’s attention to the chains holding him in a mirrored position across the room. “This,” he says, the curve of his eyebrows supported entirely by his irritation, “is not exactly what I had in mind.”
No, Kaidan wanted dinner. Soft music. Nice, normal date stuff. Not…whatever the fuck this is.
“There’s a subtle difference in how a kneecap sounds when it breaks versus a tibia, but Grunt is the only person who has ever appreciated it the same way Shepard does.”
Oh I have missed your writing, Boop XD
Leaning into unhinged violence is my resolution for 2023!

I GOT A FUCKING RAISE THE POTATO WORKED WTF
nile freeman, 2 months into her arabic and italian lessons: can’t fucking ask for directions to the supermarket, can 100% romance the cashier
#yeah but what about nile leaving broken hearts wherever she goes#and doesn’t even realize it? #she’s so kind and earnest#when she speaks she speaks with her entire soul #so combine that with her language lessons from the two biggest saps in the universe?? #nile seduces everyone without meaning to#she finally learns how to ask for directions (in a flowery romantic way bc nicky and Joe don’t know how to speak any other way) #she grabs some random guy and asks him for directions to this location her heart yearns for so her soul can find transcendent peace #her hand cradles the random guy’s hand so gently and her eyes are so warm boring right into his soul #the guy’s knees go weak and he stammers out something like yeah take uh two lefts and a right due south #and she thanks him with a sunny smile #poor dude is left stunned on the corner of the street knowing deep in his bones that he will never encounter a human lovelier than this one #he will never marry now #knowing such a person exists in the world and not being able to be her husband #the same thing happens at a movie theater when nile asks one of the workers where the bathroom is #the poor girl she spoke to just about swoons #she takes her break early so she can recover from having spoken to someone who was surely a goddess masquerading as the most beautiful woman #she’ll never forget her voice she thinks dreamily #meanwhile nile is wandering from place to place with her found family completely oblivious (via @trensu)
give yourself the gift of reading your own fic. it was literally written just for you.
took my own advice today and reread a fic I posted on AO3 seven years ago and I gotta say, it fuckin' slaps
read your own stuff. it's awesome
I was told once reading my own work is "vain" and I gotta ask: why? And so what? Does reading my own work bring me joy? Does it inspire me to write more? Then who cares if it's vain or any other pejorative you want to name it. Joy is joy and this one hurts no one, is free, and IT'S MINE.
reading your own story isn't vain. it's like eating your own cooking. you just do it to feed your soul and your imagination rather than to feed your body.

Hi, this might seem like a weird question, but are you the person who, ages ago, plotted out a whole west wing/captain america AU?
Oh my god. The President America AU. YES. I was a part of that.
The heavy lifting was done by @ink-phoenix and @thunderboltsortofapenny however, if I remember correctly.
In case anon didn’t know too, penny posted some on ao3 and it was magical :)
Yes that's me! I never got it out on paper but I have everything plotted out, if anyone wants to know how things went for the Rogers administration
My favorite thing about fanfic is watching a writer go through all 5 stages of grief as their fluffy one-shot inexplicably becomes a 100k-word novel.
welcome to the Murdersex zine, a zine celebrating all things sex and murder. but um. we don't want to romanticize it or anything so don't make your submissions too murdersexy. we will do extensive background checks on all applicants and if we decide a past work of yours has too much sexy murder we'll have to remove you, sorry. we have limits, you know, we want a tasteful gory spread you could put on your coffee table, and having the Wrong people in it would kill the vibe (and we condemn all killing! wholeheartedly!)
