Quadulent Thrusters

Irving Bailiff + Seth Milchick + The Myth of Prometheus

The first trailer for Glenn’s new series, Sirens, has dropped!

I want a Hatchetfield musical crowd song where Paul is present, he has lines, there’s a very clear space in the choreo that he’s meant to fill, but he just speaks his parts normally and stands perfectly still. When everyone else is dancing across the stage, Paul very calmly walks along to his next mark, turns to the audience, says his line in a deadpan voice then just stands and waits for his turn again

seet dee

it is so sickening to think about mac's desperation to be loved and how the neediness that radiates from him is ultimately what inhibits him from forming healthy relationships.. the gang is so tired of him constantly questioning his self-worth ("you guys like me, right?") that they've given up on giving him any attention whatsoever ("it's really a cry for [...] attention, [...] ignore those" / "treat it like a baby / "we don't like you either way"). he needs validation but seeks it in a manner that is so off-putting that nobody wants him around. he writers letters to chase utley. he visits his mom and dad, even though they never want to see him. he threatens suicide as a cry for help and is encouraged to follow through. self-worth is in the body, so why doesn't anyone care that he's been working out? he smothers his dog with affection but can't even get it to stay.

i found this ‘almost kissing’ art meme from 2012 and was immediately like woah that’s so macden-coded

anyway, NEWSFLASH ASSHOLE, THEY’VE BEEN IN LOVE THE ENTIRE GODDAMN TIME

expandable version under the cut:

charlie kelly one of those characters of all time where he's so complex but also deceptively simple so everyone can relate to him if they want to. you think he's asexual? he is!! you think he loves to fuck? he does!! or maybe his relationship to sex is too complex to put in a simple sentence? absolutely! you believe he's a trans man? of course! you think she's transfemme? just look at "the gang solves the bathroom problem"! you think they "dont do gender" or "doesn't identify"? that's quite literally canon!! boyfriend to some, girlfriend to others, they have the range!! you think of him as a sweet, silly little guy? he's in fact a lovable rascal. you prefer to think of him as an amoral disgusting violent man? he's in fact also that. whatever you think of charlie kelly, you're probably right and that's delightful to me

just a heads up for all writers out there!

I was recently told AO3 is currently being plagued by bots that comment on people’s works and falsely claim their fics were AI generated. and I can see how vile and discouraging hearing that is for authors who put so much time, effort and dedication into creating their fics.

now listen to me, if you ever get a comment like this on your work, please please please please know that they’re most definitely bot who comments the same thing on dozens of people’s works at random without ever reading the works. at all. they just copy and paste the same script onto random fics, any fic they come across.

they’re bots with malicious intentions, and they most certainly want you to lose motivation and/or delete your works. DON’T GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT.

if you ever get a comment like this, just delete the comment and/or report it to AO3.

remember that their comments don’t mean your works look “AI generated”. it only means these bots come across your fic and leave the same copy and pasted comment on it like they do to other writers.

don’t let them make you question yourself. they’re nothing but spam bots. YOU are a writer and you are fucking awesome.
