And This Is What We Call A Biased Dataset. You See, Only She Ra Fans Will See This Poll, And Those Fans

I once googled if the uk has ceiling fans for a fic (british reddit seemed to conclude that 1) no they dont, and 2) you tack that giant ugly thing to your ceiling???)

trying to write a tma fic has me googling stupid shit. i live in florida. you think i understand what the tube is like. ugh.

Being in fandom spaces is so surreal-

Bc once your age hits a 'serious' number, you start to think - "damn, I should probably stop geeking and get more serious." But then you scroll and see a 34y/o woman writing fics after driving her kids to school, a 40y/o dude making fanart of his fav super heroes and you realize - "nah, I'm actually good"

I have misread aromantic as aromatic so many times

One time i got an email that someone had kudosed some of my works from two different fandoms and was like “omg they like two things that i also like!! And they went to my account to read more of my stuff!! :D”

How y’all THINK fanfic authors react when you send multiple comments on different fics: Ugh, another comment from them? Wow, I don’t appreciate how they enjoy what I write. :(

How fanfic authors actually react: OH MY GOD ANOTHER COMMENT? They must be on a marathon! I hope they read my recent whump fic and tell me what they think. Their kindness will be what drives me to finish my current WIP!!!! I WON’T FAIL YOU, NEW READER.

I swear I saw a tumblr post on here that said ‘horses have over 4,000 bones’ and i don’t know where it came from because its totally wrong, they have 205, but what kind of fucked up horse has this person seen out there because I’m absolutely terrified of it 

So an archive contains stories right. But it doesn’t necessarily destroy other copies. So

Idk where i was going with this actually. Something something tapes something paper copies? I know it was inspired by a drawing of jon eating tapes.

Also what would happen if you typed a statement into a google doc or something with automatic non-local saving. Would it just explode

Yeah no this is definitely a thing, i got two more today and one of them had an age and it was 23

Ive noticed something through the process of reporting the endless barrage of spambots.

Either the bio does not have an age, or the age is 23.

Is 23 a sexy age? Do you automatically gain +10 sex appeal points for the year that you’re 23 and lose them on your 24th birthday? Is 23 a common “random” number? Am I actually just being influenced by recency bias and subconsciously ignoring any other ages?

Am I overanalyzing the age stated in the bio of a spambot? Yes, yes I believe I am.

reblog if you need a hug

One of the others walks in and sees him explaining the problem to the duck and thinks he’s properly lost it (well, more than they already did) because they aren’t programmers

debugging

so true
