the sexual tension between two gas stations on the same intersection

I’m so sick of this shit. Two gastations can’t even be on the same block without some walnut shipping them, while I can’t find a single fic for dennys/applebees with dennys bottoming.

you’re literally out of your mind if you think Dennys isnt a top

your newborn baby crying is emotionally abusive to you it's called learned helplessness do not let narcissists take advantage of you

this is unironically what people over the age of 60 believe except with added therapy speak

It’s also essentially the belief that evangelicals and calvinists have about babies. I have been directly told by these types that we know babies are totally depraved and have an evil, sinful nature because when they cry they are trying to manipulate people to get what they want.

It couldn’t be because they have no other way to communicate, of course. That’s outside the realm of possibility.

things in fic I'm used to people kind of faking their way through writing about:

  • the city of los angeles
  • the city of new york
  • sex
  • how drinking alcohol works
  • how getting high works
  • how a child of any age speaks
  • how nuclear physics work
  • how [my job] works
  • how debilitating being shot in the shoulder is
  • how hypothermia works

things I have never before seen someone fake their way through writing about, until today:

  • what french toast is

read through the notes on this one trust me

Here's some of the notes, starting with the things multiple people brought up:

SHRIMP COCKTAIL:

  • banahbanah: #flashback to that one fic where Peter Parker frets about drinking shrimp cocktail because of the alcohol
  • generaldeliciousness: adding: what a prawn/shrimp cocktail is
#why is your character turning it down because they're under 21 #do you think prawn cocktail is a cocktail #this lives in my brain rent-free constantly #the rest of the fic was so normal #and good enough that i'll still re-read it #but bro

And then many, MANY, people wondering if this was actually authour mistake, since Peter really would do this!

POMEGRANATES:

  • zhajhassa: #haha where's that post that was like someone describing someone eating a pomegranate but they ate it like an apple
  • thornhands: #once someone wrote persephone biting into a whole Pomegranate #had to stop and stare at a wall for a minute
  • sungsingsanguine: I once saw someone very confidently write about a character eating slices of pomegranate.

FRUIT TREES:

  • zagreuses-toast: #given a very endearing glimpse into a writers blindspots by seeing them describe someone sitting under a ''pineapple tree''
  • salatrash: I remember something about picking watermelons... OF A FUCKING TREE
  • baander: #cranberry trees

DOUGH/BATTER:

  • maycelium: #I'm a chef so I'm really used to people not accurately describing how to cook food #But I was surprisingly flabbergasted when someone was writing making a cake and was kneading it. Which uh #Not necessary for cake. It was interesting for sure but just bizarre
  • livebloggingmydescentintomadness: #the one that drove me nuts was when a character set aside a batch of PASTA DOUGH 'to rise' #pasta doesn't have yeast!! #it does need to REST but it will never RISE #you do not want an airy crumb on your noodles
  • lovesodeepandwideandwell: #THE ONE WHERE THEY MADE COOKIES BY LADLING BATTER INTO A TRAY

Some other topics:

Disney, with due disrespect, yall cancelled Wonder Man, Blade, Armor Wars, and left Miss Marvel and Echo up in the air, but yall made Vision Quest? Who the fuck asked for more Vision?

Off the bat, the synopsis of Vision Quest sounds like a way for Disney to normalise AI.

The most inconvenient truth is that men do misogyny because they get something from it. They get labor from intimate partners, they get social capital in their public circles, they get the benefit of the doubt, they get default respect and promotions and people listening to them and people afraid of them.

"" oh he did xyz because he's traumatized"" ""he was a monster bc he was misunderstood""

He did it because he benefitted.
