GUESS WHOSE LIFE IS CRUMBLING DUE TO FANDOMS.

Be nice to the rats

To the dear people who are using the service of the Fic Finders.

I understand. You found paradise in the Mad Haven. You had a good place to find lost fics without browsing the tags on AO3, you even got good recommendation out of it. The rats brought you links and there were good fics.

So you didn’t need to be polite. Now you come and say “I want X fics with X tropes and no X.” But you don’t ask with respect. You don’t say “Could you…” You don’t say “Hi.” You don’t say “Please”. You don’t even think to be nice to the rats. You come into my inbox on the day my WIP is making me insane and you order us to find fics.

So, to be clear… I have noticed an increase of anons who just state what kind of fics they want in a very blunt way. When you keep receiving asks like those, you quickly graduate from “Oh, they are a little blunt or were too excited. It’s okay.” to the feeling of someone snapping their fingers and expecting to get served fics ASAP, which is extremely irritating.

I am not asking for much. I am not even asking for a please every time. Just a hint of politeness. A “Do you know a fic that…”. A “please.” A “Hello” or “Hi”. Cheese emoji. Anything, really, to indicate you’re talking to someone.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

important PSA about when your car is smoking

like literally smoking from the engine

white and you smell pancakes? it’s the coolant. panic and pull over, but you’ll live

a slight blue tinge? it’s the oil. panic and pull over, but you’ll live

grey, looks like fire smoke? gasoline; the most combustable and dangerous. pull over and leave the vehicle, pray.

sharing because i didn’t know this when my car started smoking white yesterday and i was so afraid for my life.

Reblogging because a dear friend of my Moms with mechanic experience told me the same thing when I got my license.

White or blue, you’ll pull through. But if it’s gray, get away.

GUYSSSSSS

IT'S WHY I CAN'T DRAW FUCKING EXPRESSIONS IT'S ALL CLICKING I CAN'T READ EXPRESSIONS LIKE MOST PEOPLE IT'S CLICKING

ITS WHY I LIKE FUCKING FIXATING ON DETAILS AND PAINTING AT ABSURD 20K RESOLUTIONS IT'S ALL FUCKING CLICKING

Autism diagnosis?

i think we as a society went through a period where people watched every marvel movie because they’re marvel movies. So, which of these movies was the last one you watched before only watching Marvel movies you’re genuinely interested in seeing?

(some titles are shortened/condensed to fit into the character limit)

I think one of the reasons why tree law is so popular and people are so enthusiastic about it is because a big, old tree being killed feels so awful. You've got something that took years or decades to get that big, that provides so many benefits, and then it's just...gone and irreplaceable. Of course people are like oh boy, you didn't think that thing was valuable and now the law is gonna come for you and you're gonna regret it.

And it feels like one of the few cases where the rich (not the mega rich, but the regular rich) actually get held to account for their crimes, because the punishment is designed to match the actual damage they do. You cut down a bunch of your neighbor's trees to make your property more valuable? The punishment is basically the cost of your property.

ah, is this why docotrs advise you not to take adderall while driving? i feel like every minute is an hour. this sucks ass.

neurotypicals, is this why y’all hate driving? because it takes forever? i feel sorry for you. i make blorbo from my shows in my head 20 min in and before i know it i’ve accidentally driven to lousianna again

ok, somehow drove to lousiana again. glad to see that there’s some aspects of driving on adderall that aren’t ruined

adderall + things that dont mix test number two: adderall and coffee.

everything is both happening and not happening.

congratulations to op for unlocking fast travel irl

companies really have got to be okay with stagnant profits. what is wrong with earning the same amount every year? why does it always have to be more? it's not sustainable. there are only so many people on the planet you can profit from 😭

This is the thing. If there are only so many people they can profit from, and they demand to see profits go up every year, they will have to steal more out of the pockets of the little people each year, either by paying less, or by charging more. And that is the problem. Because that is exactly what is happening. And the rich get richer. And the poor are getting so poor that it is coming to a crisis point. They seem to have forgotten what happens at the crisis point though: people who have nothing to lose, will rise up and fight.

This is also why they crack down on account sharing

The growth mindset says that everyone who buys a shared family account, that they pay more to share, is stealing the cost of a new account for each individual person

A follow-up to @duchi-nesten's questionably canon Secret Agent Cujo arc hehe

I asked for doodle ideas in out pham server one day, and she and @scarletsaphire said Dr. Doofenshmirtz and lorge Cujo respectively. This was the scene that immediately played out in my head.

Cujo immediately proceeds to eat him because Dr. D's ability to die is worse than Danny's let's be real. Perry takes his sweet time coming to tell Cujo to spit him back up. The two exchange Bro Nods TM.

anyway ignore the fact that I basically copy straight from references and stole Kad's tied up Cujo and am most definitely Not An Artist adshfa

HANNAH YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS BFNDNCNDBXBDBDB i’m gonna print it out and hang it in my new college dorm

when conservatives scream "socialism!" as if it's a dirty word, this is what they mean:

it's okay to give media CEOs salaries equal to all the combined benefits that workers are striking to attain, but it's not okay for workers to demand fair and equitable treatment or compensation

Screw Bob. I don't pay to see Bob act or write.

Shout-out to Ao3 for not only being transparent in the work they're doing to try to get the site running, but for IMMEDIATELY calling out any islamophobia. They're doing fucking WORK rn, all on a volunteer basis, and while most of the comments I've seen are far and away supportive I just know whoever is in charge of their socials is watching the comments section unfold with a migraine.

Anyway this is all to say I love Ao3 and the people working on it rn are dealing with absolute chaos, so the next time someone throws out a line about "why do they need a fundraiser every year" please remember today.

Danny wasn't sure what to expect from living with the Waynes. Okay. Thats actually a lie. He was expecting them to be like Vlad, complete fruitloop and evil or like Sam's parents, controlling and caring way too much about image

Instead they were really nice. Sure, Damian could get kinda aggressive when his boundaries weren't respected and Tim was someone he didn't want to be on the wrong side of but both had been very kind to Danny.

The issue was with them being bats. Of course the Waynes didn't know that he knew (they have a betting pool for when he finds out) and he planned to keep it that way. So when he saw Duke dressed as Signal sans the helmet standing at the kitchen counter they kinda just stared at eachother. Ghostboy was panicking. He didn't want to be guilt tripped into being a hero like he was in Amity. Would his new family think he was a coward if he refused? Would they think he's selfish and cut contact like Sam had?

Overwhelmed, Danny blurted out, "Nice cosplay dude!" And left.

The bats make it a game to see who Danny thinks has the best "cosplay"

Danny catches on pretty quickly so he starts giving "helpful" advice about their costumes. Sometimes its actually good advice and sometimes hes just a troll.

Lmao all I can see is Danny telling Dick to "stuff the butt cause Nightwings butt is bigger than that" and it leads to an actual debate between the Waynes or them ganging up on Dick to make fun of him

Danny looking Dick Grayson in the eye and telling him that Nightwing has a juicier ass is hilarious.

I think he should tell Damian the symbol is crooked. Obviously it isn't, but Damian's sheer vitriolic fury as he fails to convince Danny of this would be funny. Especially since he can't prove himself right without outing the family.

Oh what if this leads to Danny pleading for a masquerade type gala where everyone is dressed up as thier favorite Gotham vigilantes? And it happens.

Who dresses like who?

Tim going as Nightwing and Danny, fully willing to blow his cover for the bit, asks him if he's actually for real Nightwing because the butts match. Dick takes one look at Tim Flat-Ass Drake and is so ridiculously offended it starts a fight so big they completely forget that Danny asked one of them if they were a vigilante (even if he did get it wrong)

At the Gala, one of the rogues crash it (probably Joker or something) and try to pick out anyone dressed as Batman or Robin

Danny sneaks off and shapeshifts into one of the vigilantes to kick the buts of the bad guy and his goons. Unfortunately the bats know its an impostor due to the real one being right next to them
