some patches i made this week :P
I genuinely feel so bad for homophobes,, they will never understand the JOY of gay subtext and the giddiness of shipping silly guys online
I knew having Redditors cross-train on Tumblr would produce weird fucking magic.
AKA things to do when you want to write but don't feel like writing
reread your old writing
write something silly (throw logic out the window!)
choose an old story, or your least favorite scenes, and rewrite it
read old comments from people praising your work
create a playlist for your story
create a playlist for your characters
create a playlist for a friend's project
don't push yourself to write, take a break and refuel
write what you want to write, no matter how cliché, if you want to write it, write it. you don't need anyone's permission but your own
take a break, focus on another hobby of yours
consume other types of media
team up with a friend and write AUs for each other's stories
take a walk to clear your head
you don’t always have to write in chronological order if it isn’t working for you (certain scenes you find boring to write can become more interesting after you’ve explored other parts of the story)
start a completely new story
write a love letter to one of your characters
write a letter of appreciation for yourself as a writer (or to another writer you admire)
write a love letter to a friend's character
write a hate letter to a character of yours that you despise (not badly written characters. characters who deserve a bit of scolding in response to their actions)
you are not a bad writer for not writing every day. take a few days off if necessary
remind yourself to have fun. just start writing, don’t focus all your attention on following every rule, the nitty-gritty can come into play when you're more familiarized with writing as an art
step away from the computer and press play on a writing playlist and brainstorm ideas while walking around or doing chores
remember why you started! you deserve to tell the story you want to tell regardless of the skill you possess
tryna figure out his look before i deface him on my apush notes :P

"light yagami is a misogynist" I say into the mic.
the crowd boos. I begin to walk off in shame, when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.
"she's right... surprising, for a woman", they say. i look for the owner of the voice. there in the 5th row stands light yagami.
drew this while i was watching season 3 a week ago :P
thought the hands were fun so i drew jinx <3
Just started reading Senpai, Does It Taste Good? Which, of course, is about lesbians and cooking.
Miho and Mori are two girls that each have eating issues and discover comfort in each other. Miho loves cooking but is very insecure about eating in front of others. Mori can't cook but enjoys learning from Miho. I can't say more about her issues because spoilers. So far, it is super cute and both are canon sapphics.
CW: the manga does have panels showing eating apps that count calories!
