Shitty Fanfiction ch. 13 - bunnies and babes abound

prev ยซ masterlist ยป next

Just trying to survive through your last year of university, you do your best do keep to the sidelines. No drama, no problem โ€” thatโ€™s your motto. Besides, with your two best friends, your dependable roommate, and your adorable coworker, what kind of shit could you possibly get into?

But when youโ€™re suddenly thrown into a world you donโ€™t recognize at all, your no-drama-no-problem life turns into nothing but a faraway dream. All alone, youโ€™ll have to deal with fuckboys, mean girls, andโ€ฆ getting sold to One Direction?!

hi guys.. i wasnโ€™t gonna do this but it looks like i have to at this point. i found out at a recent vet check-up that both of my cats have medical conditions that theyโ€™re now on medications for. templar has asthma and a heart murmur and emmie has behavioral stress and a uti. i anticipated the cost of the check up but i was blindsided by the medications, tests, scans, and labs. all in all the whole shebang costed me about $450. im moving away from my shitty roommate in july and really needed that money to help pay for the initial costs of my new apartment.

please donate if you can. there are no hard feelings if you canโ€™t, not everyone is in a good spot right now! if you could please just rb this, i owe you the world. i can provide images of the charges and their medication costs and vet records if you wish. if youโ€™d like anything in return please just send me a dm or an ask off anon! iโ€™ll do my best to help you out.

โ€œThis is your daily, friendly reminder to use commas instead of periods during the dialogue of your story,โ€ she said with a smile.

โ€œHowever,โ€ she added, shifting in her seat, โ€œitโ€™s appropriate to use a comma if thereโ€™s action in the middle of a sentence.โ€

โ€œTrue.โ€ She glanced at the others. โ€œYou can also end with a period if you include an action between two separate statements.โ€

Things I didnโ€™t know

โ€œAndโ€“โ€ she waved a pen as though to underline her statementโ€“โ€œif youโ€™re interrupting a sentence with an action, you need to type two hyphens to make an en-dash.โ€

You guys have no idea how many students in my advanced fiction workshop didnโ€™t know any of this when writing their stories.

Okay, but someone please explain question marks when followed by a dialogue tag. How do?

โ€œThe speech tag is still part of the previous sentence,โ€ she explained, โ€˜so it isnโ€™t capitalised.โ€œ

โ€œWhat do you mean?โ€ he asked. โ€œBut thereโ€™s a full stop as part of the question mark!โ€

She nodded gravely. โ€œI know!โ€ she said. โ€œA lot of people find this confusing. But the speech tag belongs to the line of dialogue, itโ€™s still part of the sentence, so itโ€™s wrong to capitalise it.โ€

She reblogged the post again, because she had recently read far too many potentially enjoyable stories marred by poor dialogue punctuation.

โ€œThere are two more ways"โ€”she pointed to the blackboardโ€”โ€œto punctuate interruptions. One is with the em dashes outside the quotations marks to indicate continuous speech. The action occurs at the same time as speech. The otherโ€”โ€ she sipped from a glass of water โ€œโ€”is em dashes within the quotation marks to indicate interrupted speech.โ€

important tips!!

TW: SEXUAL ASSUALT, KIDNAPPING, RAPE, FORCE

hi guys so recently i have been really worried about getting kidnapped or attacked in my area after a situation that took place in london a few days ago. a man grabbed an eleven year old girl on her way to school and tried to force her to suck his dick. another girl came out of her house and saw the girl who probably looked frightened and uncomfortable and went home to grab her mum and sister who rushed out and helped straight away. the news was spread on social media and the man was arrested and caught the same very day, thank god!

basically im here to try and ease young people about situations like this, especially girls who might be targetted by men and pedophiles. kidnapping and rape are โ€” of course โ€” very frightening situations and unfortunately, young girls in society have to be more aware of these things than boys. but that doesnโ€™t mean you have to live your life in fear, you shouldnโ€™t have to. hopefully these tips can allow you to few more safe going outside and help you to enjoy going out, knowing that you can help yourself while outside too!

  1. Traveling with people. Having people around can help a lot to prevent these situations because you are more likely to not be targetted with other people around and youโ€™re likely to feel more safe!
  2. If in danger, press the off button of your phone 5 TIMES. This immediately sets off emergency services where you can contact the police
  3. Iโ€™m sure most of you guys have phones so you can download this app called โ€œOne Screamโ€ where if you press a button on the app, it sets off an alarm and contacts the first three people on your emergency contact list. Please download this app!
  4. Most people are music fans, so if youโ€™re listening to music with earphones whom traveling, take one out so you can hear if anytime approaches you or if someone else is in danger, you can help them too!
  5. Deodorant or perfume! Have a small bottle of perfume or deodorant (deodorant is better because the particles spread faster than perfume ones) somewhere easy to reach so if someoneโ€™s too close to you or trying to grab you, pull it out and spray them and RUN!
  6. Public transport can be dangerous too but itโ€™s also a lot safer. Using transports like trains or subways, you can contact the security if anything happens. Buses are good because the driver is not too far from you and thereโ€™s emergency buttons too. But itโ€™s helpful to sit on seats that can prevent people from sitting next to you (of course when thereโ€™s enough space) in case they stop you from moving etc.
  7. Lastly, if someone is attacking you, yell โ€œfire!โ€ because it catches attention much more than rape (sadly).

im tagging my moots so they can find these tips and hopefully use it in their everyday life and feel safer or help themselves in danger.

no one should ever be shamed for how they speak/ sound. Deaf accents are wonderful!

The fact that a person who canโ€™t hear is able to learn the mouth formations to make certain sounds is beyond what most able-bodied conquer in their first 50 years. Itโ€™s harder than learning any foreign language and yet people have the audacity to try and make fun of their voices. It enrages me. idc what anyone says, deaf voices will forever be superior to any foreign language I ever hear.

So I just got this message literally few minutes ago

And if YOU get this message in the future DONโ€™T YOU FUCKING DARE CLINK ON THE LINK I FUCKING SWEAR TO GOD I WILL CUT YOUR HANDS OFF

A warning to all of my followers there no such a thing as @exposingthoselosers I just thought any form of information is good and can protect my followers from getting their phone or any other devices hacked if youโ€™re connect to the wifi they might hack all of the devices connected.

DO NOT FUCKING CLICK ON ANU LINK YOU GET NOT EVEN FROM UR FRIENDS ON TUMBLR BECAUSE THEY COULD GET HACKED ๐Ÿ‘€

Pls share this awareness โš 

Also blogs get hacked or something and send these without the blog ownerโ€™s consent. I got this message and then afterwards the person who sent it to me said they didnโ€™t send that.

got a message from a mutual today similar to this and they later messaged me to say it wasnโ€™t them so yeah be careful

Basically if you get this message, donโ€™t click on it, instead tell the person that you received that message. That way they know that they were hacked.

If I ever send you any message, especially if it has a link, message me back about the message before you click on the link. I will understand because things like this^^ can happen.

Guuuuys. Iโ€™ve received this

Iโ€™ve checked with the person running the account and it was a virus. Soooโ€ฆ Be careful

I just got a message like this and thought it sounded familiar. Be careful everyone!

Yeah hey followers I do NOT go around randomly sending links, so if you get something like this from me, let me know because I did NOT send it.

This sounds so similar to this other thing when people send you a link to a cursed eurovision fanfic but it turns out to be a virus.

Please stay safe darlings!

Stolen posts?

Guys, thereโ€™s something Iโ€™m a bit concerned about. Recently (as in, ten minutes ago), I found out that there is this website called Tumgir that has all of my Tumblr posts and blog on it. I donโ€™t think itโ€™s an extension of or owned by Tumblr. Apparently thereโ€™s also another one called Tumbral that does the same thing?

Iโ€™m not sure why my stuff is on there, since Iโ€™ve never visited these websites in my life, but I just wanted to raise this point. Iโ€™m concerned that my posts can be found there quite possibly even after I delete them. (To be honest, I donโ€™t even want to click on the website since I donโ€™t trust it. A lot of the info comes from this post about this same issue, and those who reblogged with the same issue as well. Iโ€™ll be reblogging this post to share with you as well.)

@staff it would be very helpful if you could also weigh in, just to be sure if this is indeed a Tumblr thing or if these websites are acting on their own?

Itโ€™s just really strange and I wanted to get it out there for my writeblr friends and other followers in case youโ€™ve ever shared something and donโ€™t want it automatically re-posted to another website.

If Iโ€™ve got something wrong and this is a normal extension of Tumblr, please let me know, but I donโ€™t think it isโ€ฆ

Update: Apparently it has worked for a lot of people to turn on the two โ€œHide this blogโ€ features in your settings, you should be able to prevent any further posts of yours going on any of these websites.

Also, there is a third website called โ€œTumbexโ€ that is also pretty much the same as Tumgir and Tumbral.

I still donโ€™t know how to go about reporting/taking down whatโ€™s already on there (especially since some Tumblr users have reported that their contact emails are apparently fake), but Iโ€™m trying to figure it out and would appreciate all the help I can get. If you find something out, please do share!

[[[Also, not to freak my fellow writeblrs out, but I googled some writeblr friends and have found every single one of them already on one of these websites, so please please please check for your username (just googling your username and going to the second/third pages will show you your results on Tumblar/Tumgir/Tumbex) and please do take the necessary precautions to stop it from happening again.]]]

Hey all, sorry about the vagueness of the whole โ€œHide this blogโ€ features! Itโ€™s pretty important so Iโ€™m sharing this screenshot to show you where those features are:

Youโ€™ll find it under the โ€˜Edit appearanceโ€™ option in your settings. As you can see, Iโ€™ve got them both turned on.

absolutely DO NOT click on any of these websites. i checked for my writeblr @missmarvelles and found it on one. I decided to check it out and something downloaded onto my computer. Iโ€™m currently cleaning it just in case. be careful!

Thatโ€™s horrible! Thanks for sharing that! Hopefully your computer is clean and nothing is harmed/stolen.

Yes, definitely DO NOT ENTER THESE WEBSITES. For your own safety.

Theyโ€™re super suspicious and itโ€™s better to deal with them from outside. (And besides, any reporting mechanisms that they feature on their websites seem to be unhelpful.)

Yep, also, a recent reblog reminded me: this is not only an issue for writeblrs (my main just so happens to be a writeblr and my community is all writers, so I tend to default to that). This affects ALL tumblrs and it would be better to be safe and keep things secure so please do take the necessary steps.

Also, I understand that this can be anxiety inducing and scary for many, but please just take a breath and focus on what you can do for now. Itโ€™s not your fault that this has happened, but for now itโ€™s a good thing to prevent it from happening any further.

Please donโ€™t enter the sites or click on anything in them, just change your privacy settings and, if you feel up for it (because I know this can also be nervewracking) report the sites through Chrome/Firefoxโ€™s reporting portals.

Iโ€™ll update with any new info I learn, but until then this is what we can do.

I did a cursory search and while I havenโ€™t found muchย of my stuff on these websites. I think I found a copied profile of mine (with no posts) and some posts tagging me, but I have yet to find any of myย personal content. Pleaseย let me know if you see something of mine on these other sites! As a reminder: As of July 23rd, 2020, I onlyย post my content on Tumblr.

I would highly recommend everyone checking themselves out, and maybe checking for some of your mutuals and friends as wellย โ€” please spread the word, this is incredibly important! @hyba has outlined a ton of really helpful information so reading through this post in its entirety is really important.

Donโ€™t click on these websites! Donโ€™t give them any traffic, and be cautious because itโ€™s possible that they have malware.

In light of this information, Iโ€™d just like to remind everyone to be careful with what you share online! If websites are truly stealing content from our blogs and we arenโ€™t able to delete it, we need to be really careful to not reveal too much about ourselves so that we donโ€™t compromise our safety.

I found both @celibate-sapphic-support and @strawberry-sakura-sickness on one of these websites, and those are the two blogs where Iโ€™m most likely to overshare and then delete stuff once I come to my senses, so thatโ€™s concerning. It looks like the page for the latter blog still displays my old bio, so this sketchy website may very well have the old vent posts that I deleted all at once for privacy reasons ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™ƒ Iโ€™m hiding all my blogs now.

So I checked out the site today on my phone. Got a ton of pop ups, including an ad for Oxycontin. Iโ€™m pretty sure they have every single blog on Tumblr. Itโ€™s just an alternative browsing site for tumblr filled with sketchy ads.

Stay off this website, itโ€™s likely filled with malware.

Is this gifset a Repostโ„ข?

So since reposted gifsets are an ongoing Issueโ„ข, I thought Iโ€™d write up a Comprehensive Guide on how to spot one of these little bastards. This is really the sort of thing you only start looking for instinctively when you start making gifs, but itโ€™s really exhausting for it to only be on gifmakers to call this stuff out.ย 

Below the cut youโ€™ll find How to Spot aย repost, What to Doย when you find a repost, What NOT to Doย when you find a repost,ย and a When in Doubtย section, just for my own enjoyment.

โ€ข Expect a lot of jealous cuddles in public, his head firmly under you chin, arms around your torso.

โ€ข If you think he wonโ€™t be a cinnamon roll then youโ€™re wrong.

โ€ข Please spoon him.

โ€ข Heโ€™s always right behind you when you have a plan

โ€ข He asks how you feel about, floating to you, whether or not you decide to respond friendly.

โ€ข Heโ€™s a neutral-social and doesnโ€™t expect you to behave in any way.

โ€ข If youโ€™re like Diane and lack embarrassment, thereโ€™s going to be โ€˜accidental floor napsโ€™ via nosebleed.

โ€ข If you suffocate someone with your legs at any point, prefer for screeching of jealousy, insecurity, and sheer confused.

โ€ข Probably one of those โ€œdominate meโ€ guys.

โ€ข Sometimes heโ€™ll float to you and want you to feed him.

โ€ข If youโ€™re taller than him, expect him to nuzzle under your chin, you cannot escape the cuddles.

โ€ข Oh boy if you tease constantly- blushing mess. โ€œU-um... are you sure?โ€ Heโ€™ll ask, insecurely.

โ€ข Please give him validation, tell him you love him.

โ€ข You did it casually in public. โ€œI mean, yeah, I love you, why wouldnโ€™t I come with you?โ€

โ€ข I swear the fae, your public behavior will be the death of his self-esteem.

You know, if youโ€™re ever feeling insecure about yourself, just imagine that youโ€™re a kpop idol and you have a fan base.

That birthmark that you think looks weird? Your fans gush over it and say that you were kissed by an angel.

You have a scar that youโ€™re embarrassed about? They never shut up about how cute it is and complain when it gets covered up by makeup.

Youโ€™re a female with a deep traditionally โ€œmasculineโ€ voice? Literally everyone is gay for you. Even the straights.

On the flip side, youโ€™re a male with a higher pitched โ€œfeminineโ€ voice? Everyone loves hearing you talk, and you probably have a heavenly voice as well. Also theyโ€™re very gay for you as well.

Chubby cheeks that youโ€™re insecure about? You have no idea how badly your fans want to squish them because you! Are! So! Darn! Cute!

Your two front teeth are crooked or spaced out slightly? Everyone thought that you were so cute, they started crying?

Weird laugh? Everyone loves how unique it sounds.

These are all examples Iโ€™ve seen in Kpop fandoms of stans complimenting these aspects of idols appearances. It can be a bit discouraging to see these beautiful people and compare yourself to them. Just remember that there is no single form of beauty, a lot of your idols also have body โ€œimperfectionsโ€ like the ones I described, and itโ€™s okay to believe that youโ€™re pretty.

And I think that you are very pretty as well. :)

Sometimes you just have to imagine yourself with a fanbase of loyal fans who find every aspect of you beautiful.
