those kind words can make all the difference sometimes

Raise your hand if you reread replies to comments when you’re having a bad day

No matter what, at least you made someone happy that one time

Raise your hand if you reread tags on your fics when you’ve had a bad day.

Always cheers me up.

Does it count that I reread fics when I had a bad day? You guys don’t how much your work cheers your readers up. THANK YOU!

I save some of my favorite comments to my compliments folder

If you have billions of dollars it shouldn’t be a crime to steal from you. You’ve got enough money that your security should be your own responsibility and anyone who manages to swipe from your hoard deserves applause for besting a supervillain

Over a billion and you reach the social connotations that dragons have, as in stealing from you is considered a Challenge rather than a Crime

WE ALL LOVE DRAGONS, BUT IN THIS DYSTOPIAN ECONOMY, STEALING THEIR GOLD IS NOT JUST AN ACCOMPLISHMENT, BUT A LIVELIHOOD

A CAREER PATH…DARE I SAY….A PUBLIC SERVICE

“But the problem with readers, the idea we’re given of reading is that the model of a reader is the person watching a film, or watching television. So the greatest principle is, “I should sit here and I should be entertained.” And the more classical model, which has been completely taken away, is the idea of a reader as an amateur musician. An amateur musician who sits at the piano, has a piece of music, which is the work, made by somebody they don’t know, who they probably couldn’t comprehend entirely, and they have to use their skills to play this piece of music. The greater the skill, the greater the gift that you give the artist and that the artist gives you. That’s the incredibly unfashionable idea of reading. And yet when you practice reading, and you work at a text, it can only give you what you put into it. It’s an old moral, but it’s completely true.”

This is such a big mood. Speaking as a full-time graduate student in the metro DC area, I don’t blame her for waiting. The cost of living here is grotesque.

stfu, this bitch just another LARPing liberal

Like most models, Ocasio-Cortez did not buy the outfit shown here – she rented it for a photo shoot. Also, the clothes come from an environmentally-conscious fashion line, the designers of which are sensible to her political platform.

I see why you omitted these details – sexism is more catchy when you neglect the whole story

Period

G*d people really acting like a bartender with student debt showed up to a photoshoot with a $10,000 wardrobe in tow. That’s not how any of this works.
