You are wise

I hate it and yet I keep reading about it because it is so fascinatingly awful

....that would actually work pretty well 👀

I am insulted on behalf of all of you, how DARE 😆

Post inspired by that Wuthering Heights film being compared to fic, but if basically anyone in this fandom wrote their version it'd be the best thing you've ever seen

💯

People who use fanfic as a shorthand comparison for shitty one dimensional writing really need to up their fic reading game.

Wuthering Heights is at its heart a story of class and race. Emerald Fennell has got it all wrong | Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett By turning the novel into just a corset-heaving love story, the director has stripped it of what made it so boundary-pushing, says Guardian columnist Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett

Okay, THIS is the critique I was waiting for.

I have been really fascinated by the way people talked about this movie, and this author went for the jugular. It’s not just that the director made a weird horny indulgent movie, it’s that she gutted the politics.

I honestly don't know! Either people are putting normal thought processes into little graphs and monetising it, or NTs are weirder than we first suspected

No but if you like Deadloch and/or Derry Girls you should watch this immediately

Sometimes neurodivergence is reading about structured problem solving techniques and going wait, is this not how your brain naturally works anyway?

Happy birthday Norman!

It really is 🫂

Course I'm doing at work is technically an apprenticeship since that's where the funding is, and so I keep getting emails inviting me to 'connect with other apprentices'. Really overestimating my interest in talking to people there.

I'd somehow forgotten in the general chaos of life, but writing fiction is just really good therapy.

To anyone that needs clarification, "your best" is what you can accomplish without damage to your physical, mental and emotional health, not what you can accomplish by destroying them

Sounds like they're relying on people just paying it rather than contesting - they'll very likely back down immediately if questioned. The revolution can't come quickly enough 🙃

Might want to send them this - www.gov.uk/guidance/ren...

Resharing for V Day, a good time to read about whimsical proposals and miscommunication. #ofmdfic
