Sapphics in Space holy fucking shit
characters from a musical i want to write: STARLIGHTS! The Comfort Of Artificial Gravity
anyways. love them
could i get a link to the stobotnik discord server perchance..?đđ»đđ» i need to add fuel to the fire (the fire being me hyperfixating on gay people ONCE AGAIN)
@commonsenseyouneedit hey. itâs a fictional ship. calm down. if someone not liking a ship makes you THIS upset i think you need to log off the internet for a while. also, âtheyâre made for each other ur just a hater grr!â is not a good argument.
thinking about the owl house and how everything i hated about it was likely a direct result of 1. it being produced by disney and B. huntlow being canon (and yes i do think canon huntlow ruined a ton of stuff. iâm not exaggerating. it completely ruined hunter and willowâs characters for starters by taking their pre-existing cool personalities and changing them so the ship would fit a boring unseasoned girlboss x malewife dynamic. willow shouldâve been aroace [sheâd make more sense than lilith] and hunter shouldâve ended up with one of the blight twins [id have preferred edric because the show didnât have ANY decent canon mlm ships. and no, willowâs background gay dads and the implication of aladarius in the finale do NOT count. although i wouldnât have complained if hunter had ended up with emira either] shipping is my special interest so like.. i get kinda aggressive about these things but also i think it gives me a bit of credibility on the topic. you can disagree but thatâs just my opinion lol)
i remember at one point i made a list of stuff i hate about the show, and while i donât have access to it anymore i remember that most of the stuff i listed was, in fact, very likely a result of those two factors.
like adding onto the anti huntlow thing, i think lumity also has problems for some of the same reasons huntlow does, albeit not as drastically. like itâs obvious that the creators decided on the ships BEFORE writing their characterâs personalities which ended up working out in lumitys favour but NOT in huntlows. cause yeah, amity changed after getting with luz but it was sorta realistic? meanwhile after getting with willow, hunter fully stops being funny and loses his charm entirely. he was my favourite character until the Huntlow Personality Retcon happened. now i genuinely canât stand him. if i wanted to see a boring m/f girlboss x malewife âbi4biâ (in quotations cause hunter never showed interest in the same gender at ANY point which leads me to believe that him being bi was an afterthought they threw in during season 3) fictional couple where the most interesting thing about it is the fact that itâs a gb/mw dynamic, i would simply watch a millie x moxxie compilation on youtube. and i donât even like helluva boss. and i think that dynamic is overplayed.
like people always say âstraight couples are boringâ and they get hate for it but are they wrong??? when the majority of m/f couples in fiction are either âgender roles: the shipâ or âreversed gender roles: the shipâ it starts to get boring as hell. whereâs the variety. like for example a straight ship i really enjoy is tim and sasha from the magnus archives, because they actually have personalities that compliment one another that arenât just âheâs a simp and sheâs strong!!1!â obviously we donât get to learn a ton about them together, but thatâs also a nice change. why do ships always have to be the main focus at the expense of a good story. and again: iâm saying this as someone whose SPECIAL INTEREST IS SHIPPING.
obviously there are worse ships than huntlow. iâm aware of that. but i also think iâm allowed to have and express my opinions. kay? cool.

Write it shitty, write it scared, write it without a clue but don't you be so spineless and have an AI write fanfic for you.
the fact that some of yâall saw the term âpurity cultureâ and decided to apply it to FANDOM DISCOURSE to defend proshipping is DISGUSTING. iâm not even talking about the proshipping part, idrc abt that rn iâm specifically talking about the way you idiots are misusing a term that has LEAD TO PEOPLE DYING IRL because you couldnât be bothered to google it before using it. do better.
no matter what your most embarrassing moment in life is, at least itâs not having fucking chat gpt write fanfic for you bc youâre too lazy to do it yourself
i firmly believe that the best piece of writing advice i could ever give someone is âyou canât have everything you want in your story.â if you implement ALL your ideas into one story, you risk losing good writing. because a lot of the time, the âloreâ or whatever doesnât match up with each idea, or it becomes too clustered. a good example of this is everything vivziepop writes. she tries to get all her cool ideas into one story, and so it comes off feeling like a bad fanfiction of a better story (pacing issues, continuity errors, too many characters, etc). this isnât me hating on viv, itâs me trying to get you to learn from her mistakes. i believe her stories have genuinely decent qualities that get overshadowed by the bad stuff.Â
tldr; you need to sacrifice some of your ideas in order to make a story good (but you can always reuse them in other stories!).Â
gay people? woah
ai does not belong in creative spaces. period.
what i mean is, i hate when creators of a piece of media confirm something in the canon of the media, like for example a character stating âi love the color red,â and then the creator coming out on twitter or an interview or something later and saying âactually that character HATES red,â even if thereâs direct evidence of the character loving red.
this is mostly about the fact that one of the arcane creators âconfirmedâ that sky and viktor were childhood friends, despite the only âevidenceâ of that being that they made eye contact once as children. if they were actually friends theyâd have interacted in a friendlier way. but they didnât, their interactions were all very hollow.
there are other examples too, but thatâs the one iâm most annoyed about rn. i hate retcons. stop retconning things to make them canon. if you want something to be canon in your story, make it canon (if you can), and at the very least donât canonically confirm the exact opposite of what you want to be canon.
if i wanted a character in a book iâm theoretically writing to be black, i wouldnât describe them as being pale and having white features. i then DEFINITELY wouldnât go on twitter years later and âconfirmâ that they were black the whole time (cough cough jkr).
anyways. stop confirming things in the laziest way possible. also stop getting mad at people for not taking the creatorâs words into account when those words are bullshit. thanks.
FREAK! (affectionate)
woah old art redraw
epic jinx moment
i was doing edibles outside in the rain this morning, and i accidentally dropped one onto the ground.
since i was already high, i kinda just⊠stared at it. i didnât even bother to pick it back up.Â
the rain hit the exposed surface of it in an almost melodic manner. i watched as it got more and more soaked.Â
eventually, the rain stopped, and i was still staring at the fallen edible.Â
a little ant crawled over to it, and broke off a piece. then, it left, presumably to bring it back to its colony.Â
i wondered if ants could process drugs in the same way humans do. i doubted it, but i gave it some thought.
what if the ant brought the piece of the edible back to its colony, and they all got super high? what if they became enlightened??
that happened to a friend of mine, once.Â
Avery Bourne. we met back in high school. he was the guy who got me into this stuff in the first place.Â
one day, we were sitting at his place eating the edibles he had made, like normal. but then, all of a sudden, he began to scream.
he said he had seen god.Â
he had seen god, and god had seen him, too. he said god had talked to him, in a language he could no longer comprehend.Â
Avery said⊠he said we were all just bugs. just bugs compared to whatâs truly out there.Â
he ran away that night. i never saw him again.
i look back down to the edible on the ground, and i see a bunch of ants, just standing there.
looking at me.Â
âŠmaybe i should quit for good.Â
Instead of doing NanoWriMo I will be doing something where I try to aim for writing an actual average of 400 words a day for the month of November in memory of Terry Pratchett, who as far as I know never thought telling a computer to write a book for you is a good way to hone your skills as a writer.
âturning the zodiacs into humans!â the people yearn for homestuck

this movie is so fanartable
one time i wrote a short story with my ocs. one of the lines was âthe point is, you care about the guy. no homo. but also maybe totally yes homo. schrödingers sexuality. does the cat fuck dudes? who knows, but if he did, youâd support him 100%. and in this case, the cat is charlie. the cat that youâre maybe totally super in love with. maybe you should stop comparing him to cats if youâre going to say that.â i donât know which davekat fanfic author i channeled while writing it but iâm not complaining
