funimation is shutting down as part of its merger with crunchyroll, and any digital copies of anime funimation users bought won't carry over. you can purchase something outright and corpos will still turn around and say you don't own or control it.

anyway piracy is good and necessary and perhaps even an imperative.

Bethlehem, Palestine.

Usually there is a festive parade to celebrate Christmas.

But today it is a silent march for the lives lost in Gaza.

20,000K+ dead. Countless under the rubble and so many more injured.

working on finally finishing up chapter 7 of TROOPER rn. It should be done like in 1-2 days and then I'm gonna go back and edit some things in previous chapters that don't really work anymore.

If you wanna catch up with the story before the new chapter drops, here's the link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/24314245/chapters/58616197

i thought i was radicalized before but there is something about seeing every respectable institution and politican and media outlet around you cheer on a genocide while at the same time being able to see live footage of its horrors that cracks something in you open with no way to close it up again

"Please remember politics don’t have to be miserable. Hang out with marginalized people. Do mutual aid. Make gifts instead of buying them. Cook with friends. These are all things that are anti-capitalist but aren’t soul-sucking!"

there’s a new potent drug called “the bed” out on the streets. just one hit of the damn thing and you’re passed out cold, tucked in, multiple blankies, honking and shooing for hours. scary stuff.

The most productive way to do something is the one you finish

Optimizing your tasks to take the least amount of time does nothing if that "optimized" version is the one you never want to actually do or finish. If your way of doing something takes 5x longer than some other way, but the "longer" way is the only way you can or want to do it, that is the most productive way for you and don't allow yourself to be shamed by that.

Anonymous asked:

I'm always afraid that the characters I write about are, well, out of character. I try to come up with things that I think they would say and put them in my style, but I always hear myself talking, not them. Do you have some advice?

Ohh this definitely pushes a button for me because i hate the hewouldntfuckingsaythat-ication of fanfiction. How that concept has poisoned the minds of writers so they keep second-guessing and become insecure and afraid. I think writing fic should be a celebration, a hobby where you write what you want, an indulgence.

So to readers i say: cope. He would say that simply because the fic writer makes him say that 🤷‍♀️ fics are little free gifts!

But as a fic author to another fic author: i understand. You want to stay true to how they sound. To how you see them. I have some tricks up my sleeve.

1. Work with a beta. Someone who reads your work for you, encourages you, and pays extra attention to how the characters ‘sound’. If your beta is a writer too whose characterisations you like, you’ll know you’re safe.

2. Rewatch canon a lot. Rewatch short scenes before writing so you get how they sound fresh in your mind again (this is a tip i stole from @gingiekittycat )

3. Think of little words or phrases your characters say often in canon, and insert them into your fic. For example for aziraphale it can be “dear” or “my dear”. Or for crowley “nknkgnk” or some variation.

4. Say it out loud. “Act” like them, say their lines as them.

5. Do one round of editing of your fic focusing ONLY on the dialogue. Ignore all the rest but just reread your dialogue and really work on it.

Also, please know, your mind lies to you. Of course it sounds “like you” because you are you, especially after you’ve worked on a fic long. But that doesn’t mean it’ll sound out of character to your readers. They’ll go along with more than you think.
