Once upon a time there was a woman. Most know her as Lost, or Nel, or Nellie. She writes fic. She reads. She's in love with Robert Carlyle. She ships a lot of things. She's a foodie, and works in a kitchen store. Chocolate is as necessary as air. Jane Eyre is her favorite book.
She is Queer, Pansexual, Cis, a Wiccan, a feminist, a dog lover, an Anglophile. A few other favorite things include: Leverage, Blacklist, Once Upon a Time, Anyelle, Criminal Minds, Doctor Who (Classic and New) Jossverse, Hustle, Disney, Jane Austen, Aaron Sorkin, and too many shows to name.
i think it’s important to get deeply emotionally unironically involved in a bad piece of media whilst fully aware that it objectively sucks ass. like for your health or whatever
Learning to delete/mute/block before a negative comment takes root in your mind is a modern survival skill. If you’re going to wander the overgrown countryside of the internet, you need to develop a quick eye for ticks.
It’s deeply tempting to respond to the “well, actually,” to the cruel assumption, to the unjust accusation, to the odious viewpoint. It’s tempting because you’re defaulting to the etiquette of dinner conversation. This isn’t a dinner conversation. Someone is shouting at you from a moving car. Turn away.

Two Comedians Walk into a Hotel Room (Midge/Lenny)
I dusted off a half finished Marvelous Mrs. Maisel fic in anticipation of the new season starting up. PG-13, fade to black,
Midge, Lenny, and a tiny Italian hotel room with only one bed.
II
“You can have the bed, I’ll take the…” Lenny looked at the room that was so small it didn’t even have a spot for a chair
“Bathtub?” Midge suggested wryly as she looked for a place to
put her suitcase. “Don’t be silly, we can share. One of us is a
gentleman.”
“I hope you mean you because that’s something I’ve never been
accused of a day in my life. Also, there is no bathtub. I’m not even
sure that qualifies as a shower so much as it’s a really tall sink.”
Lenny stepped out of the bathroom, which was really more of an alcove
with a curtain hung to separate it from the room.
“That’s okay, I don’t think this is a hotel room so much as it
is a closet they just so happened to fit a bed in.” It was smaller than
her closet, actually. She was going to have to put her suitcase on the
bed to get anything out and squeeze it into the corner when she was
done.
“I don’t think it’s a closet if there’s a window.” 'Window’ was
being generous, considering the size and the fact that it almost
touched the ceiling and they couldn’t look out of it without standing on
the chair they didn’t have.
“I don’t think it’s a bedroom if there’s not a closet.” What they were being charged for a closet was ridiculous.
“Two comedians walk into a closet and…”
“Heard that one. The punchline never works.” She tossed her
suitcase on the bed, glad she’d left the bigger one in the car. “You
can use the bathroom first.”
