it’s so bizarre when animated American films are set in a certain location and then only certain characters have the accents of that place. It makes no damn sense!! like
WHY IS SHE MORE FRENCH THAN THE REST OF THEM???

I did more knitting for this pie crust than I have on my actual knitting WIP in the last week
Also a lot of people dont say interstate or highway they just call it the number/letters (I10= interstate 10, US 95= US highway 95, 244= state highway/freeway 244, route 66= US route 66).
Another thing is State routes sometimes are just normal roads in town and as you get out of town morph into a highway as you get out of city limits.
I good way to get your characters lost is have a bridge outage and have them try to find another way without looking at a map. This happened to my Family once, the bridge to cross the Mississippi near Baton Rouge Louisiana had a chemical spill and they were forcing everyone off, but hadn't put up the detour signs yet, we decided to go south after getting off and ended up in residential swamp land. The atlas (big map book) had nothing, Garmin had no idea where we were and we keep turning down streets and hitting dead ends. We couldn't even find our way back to the Main streets I don't even remember how long it took us to try Google maps which finally included the streets we were on (this was like 10 years ago, which is why we didnt think of that sooner).

This is potentially life saving information everyone should know.
So wait are livestock guardian dogs to their flocks like… Clark Kent among the residents of Smallville? He’s been here since he was a baby, we all know him, and he’s… generally one-of-us shaped, uh, approximately. And then when something goes wrong he suddenly leaps into action and does some terrifying impossible shit none of us could do. And then comes back home and settles in like nothing happened and he’s one of us again.

Powerfull life lesson.

Come into a fandom late. Leave early. Write 100 fics. Write 1. Write none. Read every single fic written in your fandom. Read only your OTP. Write only your OTP. Write every pairing under the sun. Make gifs just for your friends. Make gifs to share with everyone. Make art. Make nothing.
Cheerlead from afar and keep to yourself. Join a groupchat. Yell about headcanons with your friends. Leave kudos. Leave comments. Make fic recs. Bookmark everything. Read or watch and then forget it.
Treat canon like gospel. Treat canon like a dumpster fire. Only read/write/art coffeeshop AUs. Decide your corner will be all hurt no comfort. Decide your corner will be all fluff no angst.
Fandom isn’t one size fits all, and there is no one right way to do it. So find what works for you, and don’t worry about all of the outside noise. It doesn’t matter how everyone else does fandom.
All are welcome.
