Flip Side

Some of my current fanfiction covers since I CANNOT for the LIFE OF ME figure out how to link pictures into AO3 stories. 😮‍💨😓

I watch The Lost Boys for the plot

The plot:

ranking the best things I have heard surgeons say mid-surgery:

1. "Five second rule!" while scrubbed, after dropping a sterile scalpel on the floor (no they did NOT pick it up again but I swear everyone's buttholes puckered)

2. (spoken during the closing of a particularly long and difficult case) "Nurse - my tunes." :heavy metal starts blasting:

3. Gently to a fretful patient, pre-anaesthesia: "It's going to be okay. I promise, I've dealt with worse." As soon as the patient is unconscious: "This is literally the worst thing I've ever seen."

4. [okay this one was a med student] "Wowwww, that's so gross!!" Reg: "Please remember that [patient] is awake for this procedure." Student to patient: "Oh my god. I am so sorry, that was really unprofessional - " Patient, cheerfully, also engrossed with what's happening inside them on the screen: "Nah - it's, like, super gross, right?"

5. [another procedure where the patient couldn't be put under GA] Patient: *starts singing country roads midway through the procedure* Surgeon: *shrugs and joins in with surprisingly good harmony*

Sorry babe. “Cry Little Sister” stays on during sex.

Ever listen to a song absently but then hear a random lyric and be like... "did they really just say that"? XD Jamming to music while writing will do that to you!

if it's good enough for you, then it deserves to be made. don't let anyone else decide if your story is worth it or not.

someone on twitter is trying to claim that use of an em-dash is an indication of AI-generated writing because it’s “relatively rare” for actual humans to use it. skill issue

Flip Side might be coming to an end but Kuno's world will be coming right back with Don't Fear the Reaper where we jump into Reaper's point of view. A hunt gone awry leaves the half vampire with an injured... something and he just can't bring himself to hurt them.

a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted

their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"

"Every writer"?

come on
