Women can write m/m. Men can write f/f. Asexuals can write filthy smut. Lesbians and gay men can write m/f. It's all arbitrary anyway. Who give a shit.
"Oh but they don't have an experience of-" I don't have any experience committing or solving murders either but that's still mostly what I read and write about.

I've been seeing all those other fun lists around and decided to make one specific to me and nobody else: A bunch of games I am (or once was) completely obsessed with. At one point they all took over my life completely, and this was often not a good thing!
I tried to put them in proper order of release year, but apologies if I goofed up.

Hans taught Henry to swim. In time, Henry began to appreciate moments of peace and relaxation, when the water flowed over his body and cooled his racing thoughts 💙

Me: *agonizing over whether a semicolon goes here, what the proper dialogue should be there, other assorted rules and semantics*
Terry Pratchett: "!" said the stranger.
THAT'S ALLOWED?
My favourite piece of Pratchett dialogue is from Monstrous Regiment, where a messenger pigeon is intercepted and then captured Very Carefully midflight by a hawk. The narrative notes that if the pigeon were capable of higher thought, it would have marvelled at how delicately the talons are holding it, in contrast to how birds of prey normally capture pigeons, and that if it were cognizant of this contrast, it would be suspicious of its gentle handling.
The text then notes that, however, since the pigeon is a pigeon, its thoughts consist entirely of: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

on ao3 like some of these doves aren't even wounded
Okay but “dead dove do not eat” means “what you read on the bag is what is inside the bag”. The punchline to the reference is opening the bag that says “dead dove” and finding a dead dove, á là surprised pikachu. A fic tagged “Fuffy fuzzy bunny cuddles, dead dove do not eat” SHOULD NOT INDICATE DARK CONTENT. ONLY THAT THE FIC HAS BEEN TAGGED ACCURATE TO THE CONTENT.
We used to say “don’t like, don’t read”. Dead Dove is just an extension of that.
The author gave you a list of ingredients. The ingredients was “dead dove”. You cannot act shocked that there was dead dove. It was in the ingredients that the author told you
dead dove BY ITSELF doesn’t mean Jack all and I will DIE ON THE HILL OF RIGHTEOUS FURY

What is the science behind benches making your ass cold through 5 warm layers
@willowwispflame @thorny-on-main I love this site
A lot of the warmth in your "warm layers" is air. Air pockets make fantastic insulation. If you sit down, the weight of your body forces a lot of that air out and the cloth between you and the bench becomes much worse at insulating you, which is why the bench will get your butt long before the frosty air gets your covered arms.
Newbie outdoor hammock users sometimes make this mistake. Hammock people know that if you're camping somewhere with wind chill, you get a cover that insulates the OUTSIDE of the hammock. Everyone's got a story about the newbie who didn't want to waste money and decided to wrap themself in a really warm quilt only to freeze their arse off all night because there's no air in the quilt layers between them and the hammock so that wind chill cools the hammock and gets them from underneath.
[Image ID: Tumblr reply from willowWispFlame reading: The bench has more mass and is at a much colder temperature than you. If the bench is made of metal, then it conducts heat easily through the entire material, making it less likely it is locally heated to your temperature. The 5 warm layers do much to insulate your body heat, but heat energy is still leeched away.
