Look, I came away from the Neverafter finale with a mighty need for so many things:
fic about divorcee Elodie and Gerard shenanigans
fic about awkward teenagers Gnocchi and Yfla trying to flirt both pre and post transformations
fic about awkward princesses existing in their own stories without true love
bonus points for step sisters awkwardly supporting each other while step mom Minerva Does Her Best
points for Snow setting Rosamund up on a speed dating round with her roommates before she has to explain she has seven boyfriends
anything with Rapunzel figuring out how to person
anything with Mira
fic about smooth criminal orange faery
fic about Pib and the step sisters
Basically, I want fic. Oops.

not to be all "back in my day" but I miss when anime had titles like "my hero academia" or "future diary" and not "the magical revolution of the reincarnated princess and the genius young lady" or "endou and kobayashi live: the latest on tsundere villainess lieselotte"

One thing abt hs is that i am very much an enjoyer of the earlier friendships. A lot of characters relationships with each other got shelved and forgotten but i will still pretend that they are important to one another lmao

"A story doesn't need a theme in order to be good" I'm only saying this once but a theme isn't some secret coded message an author weaves into a piece so that your English teacher can talk about Death or Family. A theme is a summary of an idea in the work. If the story is "Susan went grocery shopping and saw a weird bird" then it might have themes like 'birds don't belong in grocery stores' or 'nature is interesting and worth paying attention to' or 'small things can be worth hearing about.' Those could be the themes of the work. It doesn't matter if the author intended them or not, because reading is collaborative and the text gets its meaning from the reader (this is what "death of the author" means).
Every work has themes in it, and not just the ones your teachers made you read in high school. Stories that are bad or clearly not intended to have deep messages still have themes. It is inherent in being a story. All stories have themes, even if those themes are shallow, because stories are sentences connected together for the purpose of expressing ideas, and ideas are all that themes are.

Saw a reddit post today about a girl who was upset that her childhood best friend replaced a photo of the two of them in his wallet with one of him and his girlfriend. And while yeah, she was being unreasonable with a lot of what she was saying, I totally understand the sadness of a friend "replacing" you with someone they have romantic feelings for. Makes it worse when the top comment is this
Every single comment on this post is about how family and romantic relationships always take precedence over friendships. I don't have anything more to say to this aside from the fact that... this is why it's hard for aroaces to imagine futures for themselves. Society drills it into your head that you're going to live in a world where you are no one's priority if you don't have romantic relationships and it fucking sucks

glassblowing rules because it's like one of the single most hardcore and impressive processes in the entire art world yet almost everything you make with it looks lame as hell. it's essentially a form of smithing that only produces neglected gift shop tchotchkes.
