Hey, call me Shannon. I'm just a weirdo nerd who writes crappy fanfic once a year. I’m 18 now but my works are still safe for minors.
Hi! I’m Shannon and I’ve seen a lot of writing blogs have overcomplicated aesthetic-y things… I’m too lazy for that!
So instead I’m just doing this whole thing!
Requesting Rules - Requests are always open!
Fandom Masterlists - I had to breakdown and make individual masterlists for each fandom since my huge one was getting too long.

Sometimes you might think to yourself 'Life would be so much better if I could just blast this one specific guy off the face of the Earth'
And you would be right! But you can't :(
Yes go ahead, tag who your one guy would be
We’ll do this the old fashioned tumblr poll way, since there are just too many guys… 10 options is not enough
CHEERS TO GUY WALTON FOR “OUTING” THE FOSSIL FUEL COMPANIES
From the article:
Walton has devised his own criteria for named heatwaves in the US, based on duration and extremity, on a one to five scale similar to hurricanes. Heatwave Chevron is classed as a four and is “historic”, Walton said. The meteorologist said he has a list of 20 oil and gas companies – including Exxon and Shell – for upcoming heatwaves and will turn to coal companies if he runs out of names.
Yes yes, you’re building a fucked up little creature in your laboratory, but I’m just saying, you store buy “girl” serum these days. Just an option!
Can you ket me have fun at least ONCE this month?
You are a safety hazard to us all (fond)
So play like a noob? got it
You’re joking, but it actually is a popular theory in chess that a complete noob potentially can beat a master by confusing them - as the noob doesn’t know what they’re doing the master is unable to recognize which of valid strategies they’re pursuing and cannot deploy proper counterstrategy.
Chessmasters when their opponent doesn’t make one of the five approved optimal opening moves:
#used to do shit like this when we fenced#for real tho a newbie is way more of an issue than a master because WHAT are you doing???
I’m currently a fencing coach for a high school club and my least disciplined fencer routinely beats kids who have been fencing for 5-6 years because he’s just so unpredictable and messy that his opponents have no idea what to do.
I know what a master is doing, I just may not be faster than them. I know I’m faster than a newbie but hey what the fuck is happening?
I have, on rare occasions, won pokemon battles like this. I have no idea what the meta is, and just slap things together that sound cool. It’s fun when you win by taking someone completely off guard because “Who would run that?!” Idk man, the noob that just kicked your ass. I’m not smart enough for all these mind games that go into serious competitive pokemon, but I do know big laser go pew.
The Newbie Flail™ is the most terrifying attack imaginable.

Really fucked up actually that the "you are valid" culture which, usefulness and uh, validity thereof aside, was intended to provide some some perspective for people who may have been blamed for harmless things they could not control morphed into "if strangers on the internet do not constantly tell me I'm good and perfect they are the oppressor" and "even constructively and gently telling me that I hold some power and responsibility to seek a better situation is an unspeakably cruel act."
Once, in an argument with my therapist about a decision I made to antagonize my mother, I snapped, "My feelings are valid," and he shot back, "They're valid because they're real, but that doesn't make them rational."
It was a more nuanced and tailored conversation after that, but that particular quote struck me especially and made me realize how often I was conflating "valid" with "reasonable" or "justified."
YOUR FEELINGS CAN LIE TO YOU. YOUR FEELINGS DO NOT DICTATE REALITY. YOUR FEELINGS DO NOT HAVE TO CONTROL YOU.
i think as adults it's our responsibility to be nice to kids and treat them with the respect we wish we got at that age and im not kidding or exaggerating in the least

If the point is for the children to learn, then why wouldn’t you give them as many chances as it takes? What is the benefit of telling a child “you failed and that’s the end of it”?
I’m 25, and in my trade school, our tests aren’t judgement, they’re testing to see what we’ve retained, and identify what we’re missing.
If I weld a joint, and the CWI comes up behind me with a radiographic test for it and finds that I just laid hot metal on cold metal or it looks like a sponge inside, you know what’s gonna happen? You think they’re gonna give me a low score and tell me to move on? Fuck no. They’re gonna hand me a grinder and tell me to take it out and put it in right.
When there’s actual work to be done, we don’t leave it at the first attempt if that attempt was shit. We don’t leave a trail of “what’s done is done.” If it takes you four attempts, that’s what it takes, and next time it’ll take fewer because you learned how to do it right after the third time.
School, as it’s set up, with unforgiving deadlines and single attempt high stakes tests are building a shitty work ethic. It says “I tried once, and that’s all you’re getting.” It sets you up to leave a trail of cut losses and barely or unfinished projects as you scramble to get something, anything, turned in before the deadline.
And we wonder now why nothing works at launch.
Let's make a haunted house together! Ingredients:
creaky floorboards and squealing hinges
uncomfortable and disquieting wall art
mysterious noises from... somewhere
flesh
dusty old opulent furniture
creepy dolls
memories of what once was and long-suppressed secrets
long shadows cast by insufficient lighting
show results/tag something else
reblog to enlist your mutuals in building the House :)
I have made a strategical error
This continues to be the funniest thing that's ever happened to me on this website
With your help we can get to 30% flesh!!!
FLESH! FLESH! FLESH!
At the haunted house (chanting): flesh, flesh-
Ghosts: flesh, FLESH
House (pounding her doors): FLESH, FLESH, FLESH!
Of course this thing is mostly flesh. What is a human body if not a house of a billion microorganisms haunted by a soul wholly unknowable to it's residents?
