lots of people won't like this, but I'm saying it.
If you haven't watched a movie/show of Hayden's (Higher Ground, Shattered Glass, Little Italy, American Heist, The Last Man, etc.) you shouldn't write for his character.
There are SO many people who inaccurately write for his characters and it drives me up a wall.
No, Scott isn't just misunderstood. He's a dickhead, materialistic jock.
No, Stephen isn't ignorant. He knew exactly what he was doing the entire time.
NO, Sam isn't just a hot, goth white boy. He's an asshole junkie brat who's purposely not trying to repair broken relationships with several different family members.
Those are just some examples of popular characters.
I'm so sick and tired of seeing the same shit over and over. Of course, that begs the question: "Then why don't you write it your damn self?"
I DO.
I have multiple things in my drafts. I hesitate to post them because I feel like I'm writing for an audience. Then I realized I'm writing for myself, and people enjoying my work is just a major bonus!
The point of me saying this is that you can't just watch all the Hayden scenes in a movie. WATCH THE MOVIE. There are a shit ton of things he's been in that shows his versatility as an actor, but it seems everyone just lumps all his characters into one category: silly misunderstood babygirl.
There are people who don't write his characters like that, I'm well aware. I just want us to switch it up.
And who knows? Maybe you'll enjoy the movies and shows. If you don't, you never have to watch them again. Just don't write for a character you know nothing about.
Am I a Hayden character connoisseur? Yes. Yes I am. Have I watched all his movies? Not yet, no. I plan on getting through them all.
And... why do we only write for his "most popular" characters? Sam and James are my boyfriends, yes, but for fucks sake, WRITE FOR SOMEONE ELSE!
There isn't a lot of Scott on here. I have yet to see a Leo fic, everyone turns Stephen into nerd!Ani, no Lorenzo, I'm sure none of you have even HEARD of Outcast!! Come on, guys. If I said Jake Hill Conley would anyone have a clue what movie I was talking about? No.
I said all this to say: EXPAND YOUR HORIZONS! The other movies won't bite.
౨ৎ end of bnuuy talk.

Ik y'all are probably sick and tired of hearing about Tacomic but it still baffles me that people see any potential in them. I've ranted on here once before that it's clear that Taco manipulated Mic which is. Abusive. I can't believe that has to be said. That should be common sense. Why are people so fucking keen on shipping abusive shit. I've literally seen people complain that Tacomic isn't abusive and that only lesbian ships get called abusive when they're not. Which first of all that's all just incorrect. Taco manipulated Mic, that's a fact. Once again manipulation is abusive!! And the only reason people are calling Tacomic abusive isn't because they're lesbian it's because it's fucking abusive don't even TRY to play that card. By saying that, you're essentially saying that it's okay for a lesbian relationship to be abusive. Or that lesbian relationships are different from straight or mlm relationships cause they can't be abusive. Fun fact, any kind of relationship can be abusive. You can be abused by someone no matter who they prefer to dilly dally with. I can't believe this all even has to be said. Stop romanticizing abuse please. (Btw I say all this as someone who's been manipulated and I can see a part of myself in Mic.)
I'm not saying y'all can't explore their dynamic btw. In fact I encourage it. Because if you actually do and WATCH THE SHOW you'll see that it is, in fact, abusive. I'm debating even sending this ask because it's like talking to a brick wall when it comes to Tacomic shippers. Idk why you guys licking your lips over this abusive pairing. It's honestly weird tbh

I'm sorry y'all but I'm tired of pretending good luck babe is apple white's theme. I'm sick of it >:( /hj
look I get it, it's cause it's queer coded and it fits her aesthetic but if anything, the song is more about Darling because the person Chappell is singing about is about is a person who swears they're straight even if they might have feelings for her, so they won't start a relationship. Apple is a closeted homophobic lesbian to me, she probably denies denies denies when somebody asks are you gay, or brings up her kiss to darling. Which why they probably aren't dating yet in epic winter. Apple was probably so confused on why a boy didn't wake her up. That's why the song is about the actually OUT GAY GIRL.
sorry guys i'm such a Chappell Roan fan so when i heard you guys saying this i was going bananas.

I just need to get something off my chest about getting "complimented" for my body
I hate it. It makes me so uncomfortable when people tell me that they wish they had my body. But if I ever dare complain about it, people think I'm fishing for compliments when I'm definitely NOT. And I know my problems aren't nearly as bad as the ones on the other side, but it makes me feel so awful because I feel like I'm somehow reinforcing the mindset that fuels fatphobia. It just makes me so upset that people use me as an "example" like that!!!
"You're so lucky you’re skinny." Shut up. Shut up shut up shut up. I do not CARE about being skinny. I literally couldn’t care less about how thin or fat my body is. This just happens to be my body's resting position. I am a small person. I celebrate when I gain weight because my ADD meds surpress my appetite, and it was such a struggle to eat EVEN WHEN I WANTED FOOD BECAUSE I WAS HUNGRY. I literally always eat food when I'm hungry because why wouldn’t I??? Why would you deprive your body of something it is literally begging you for????? Why do people have to think that one body shape is superior and that that shape is worth the deprivation??????
"Why do you eat so much bread? That’s so many carbs." Do you even know what carbs are for. Also I eat bread because it tastes good. Nothing anyone says will ever get me to stop living on bread and rice. "But you'll get fat!" SO WHAT???? What is so wrong about being fat???? NOTHING! Stop trying to make me feel bad about what I eat for absolutely no reason. I literally couldn’t care less what you think about me. I am mad that you had to be a 'phobe about it.
But seriously. I did ballroom dance for more than a decade. Competively. Every single costume that my studio used had the dresses made to make the girls look skinny and busty with hips to spare. "You were blessed, unlike the rest of us," my coach once told while she unstitched the padding from my dress. The lady that measured us thought it would be funny to tell everyone that my waist was the same size as the biggest guy on the team's thigh. I overheard one of the moms comment on a girl, whispering to my mom to ask if the girl was pregnant. She proceeded to tell my mom, "It’s too bad my daughter doesn’t have a body like your daughter's."
And they wonder why nearly every girl on the team ended up with an eating disorder????
After I came out as ace, I had someone tell me that my body is "wasted on someone that's not going to use it." Oh, so my worth is now being equated to how "sexy" you think my body is???? Are you even hearing yourself??????
It's not fair that people keeping putting up this invisible divide between me and those with bodies that they for some reason don’t like. I literally love fat people, and there have been way too many times that I've been used specifically by a 'phobe to make fat people feel inferior. Leave me out of it!!! I don’t care about your stupid diet culture or whatever!!! Stop trying to use me in your sick and disgusting ways of shaming people that are literally perfect!!!!

i have seen SO many post going around about how everything is a video these days and no one needs or wants this and just make the info written down and like. i absolutely understand the sentiment and their frustrations but uhh. as someone who struggles a lot with following just written or verbal instructions and benefits greatly from being able to see what's being done
please stop asking for no video explanations to exist. people think differently than you and saying videos are pointless and unnecessary is kind of exclusionary for people who. need the videos
i'm not saying y'all can't have your written explanations but maybe can we ask for both instead of saying only one form is wanted or necessary?

Saving to pintrest publicly is reposting. If you have my art on your pintrest you have stolen it.
I’m actually getting really sick of this. I was considering leaving pintrest alone for reposted art, simply because most of what I saw could would still take you back to my blog, but there is so many people pintrest who simply saved the images publicly with no credit and no link which means I’m going to have to spend the next week dealing with this nonsense instead of working on another comic like i wanted to.
Guys, if you’re young and you use pintrest to save art the you like, you need to know that saving it publicly is reposting and you are actively harming the artists who’s work you claim to enjoy.
Stop.
And if you’ve been online for a while now, you should know better.

is this your first time settin' somethin' ablaze by accident?
i know that um. you probably don't wanna hear anythin' i have to say or-.. honestly will believe anythin' i say. but i feel like- i feel like im obligated to help you out a bit here since you're in the same situation ive been in countless times
you gotta focus in the moment really deeply to not warm up too much. almost like.. going out of your way to zone out. it's- um. it's easier to cool off if you're out of it.
thankfully those fires tend to go out real easy. just splash some water on or snuff it out with a blanket. water works better though.
-louey
Its, ah, the first time setting something on fire since I was young....I'm glad most of my stuffs already fireproofed in case which is probably why I haven't......I'll try to keep this advice in mind next time though, thank you!
