AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
Is it just me or the only people that try to follow are porn bots or spam/scam profiles?!! This is hella annoying. Keep getting notifications that I got a new follower and next thing I see is titties or ass. 😮💨
I really don’t feel like we as a society are talking enough about this
TURN THE FUCKING AUDIO ON
tiny fawn, determinedly approaching the camera on wobbly legs on an empty road: mee! mee! mee! mee!
deep human voice: I'm not mama, mama's over there!
fawn, plaintively, continuing to approach: mee!
deep human voice: there, little guy! you're teeny-tiny!
fawn: (continues to approach)
deep human voice: here, let me-- we'll put you next to my coffee cup, so we can see how little you are.
fawn: (wobbles forward, lies down next to a travel coffee tumbler set down on the road. the tumbler has pictures of cute woodland creatures on it)
deep human voice: *chuckling in wonderment* ohhh, you are teeny-teeny-tiny!
HI IT’S ME AGAIN
YOU’RE FUCKING UP YOUR TEETH AND YOUR MUSCLES AND SHIT
Mild concern for this to turn out to be true
Manager: So can you talk to me a bit about your strengths and weaknesses?
Me: *literally just describes ADHD symptoms*
“Yeah my weakness is that I’m very sensitive to criticism but it can be a strength because it means I consider the feelings of others when criticizing or coaching them and make sure I always offer encouragement and positive reinforcement.”
“One of my weaknesses is that I often hop from task to task and sometimes get my wires crossed or miss a step, but the same setting makes me thrive in a fast-paced environment.”
“One of my weaknesses is that I can sometimes talk too much or dominate a conversation, but it becomes a strength when I’m in a position to connect with customers and I’m able to encourage conversation comfortably.”
okay now THIS is a viable strategy for me. everyone else is like “just lie lol” which is actually good advice but also anxiety inducing as hell
HI IT’S ME AGAIN
YOU’RE FUCKING UP YOUR TEETH AND YOUR MUSCLES AND SHIT
Mild concern for this to turn out to be true
“Hey I love your story! Is it okay if I draw-“
YES. PLEASE, GOD, YES, DRAW IT. DRAW IT AND SHOW ME. I WILL BEG YOU FOR IT.
#dear fic writer moots #do you feel this way too? #🥺
nana i feel like this was not intended for me bc you’ve seen the frothing insanity that takes hold of me 😳but, yes. and i’m not alone.
it’s a universal truth: fic writers will go apeshit for fanart based on their fics. they just do. i could be on my deathbed and if someone showed me art from a scene in my fic i’d backflip into the wall and knock my ass out
Malignant compliance is an effective tool to keep in obese quiver
It’s more commonly known as “work-to-rule” and here’s a great story about one case of its successful use.
https://libcom.org/blog/work-rule-11052014
“The day after Starbucks workers met at the Bat Cave we found ourselves working an understaffed morning shift but this time it was different. Instead of feeling the normal frustration, those of us who were at the meeting exchanged knowing glances and began implementing our plan of following every rule, thereby slowing down service. We also whispered to partners who were not in the know to slow down, don’t kill yourself. It was as if everyone took a deep breath and began working at a safe and thorough pace. The effects were instant. The speed of service dropped immediately. We ran out of brewed coffee because we were only brewing when the beeper signaled it was time. Everyone stayed in the positions they were assigned and acted only at the directions of the Store Manager. Every 10 minutes when someone was assigned to clean the lobby, we did a thorough job, ensuring everything was clean and properly stocked. Every drink and food order was perfect.
Dan, the Store Manager, lost his mind.”
Also sometimes referred to as “malicious compliance”, and it’s my favorite thing

reblog to spread awareness that we’re back on the citrus scale
Let’s get back to basics. Kinda funny we rename things like we’re outlaws that try to cover up there crimes!
why have i never known about orange
Orange was originally like…a PG-13 warning. You would tag orange for fics that stopped at making out.
What you’re thinking of is “Grapefruit”.
The scale goes as such:
Orange (PG-13, basically making out like I said) - Lime (Non-explicit sexual actions, think an M rated fic instead of NC-17) - Lemon (explicit, graphic sex, the NC-17 fics) - Grapefruit (hardcore/weird stuff)
Reblogging for the citrus correction of orange and grapefruit
It is so weird seeing people rediscover the fandom of my youth. I haven’t used the citrus scale since I last lied about being 18.
This makes me feel old.
