This didn't happen. The perception that it did is largely based on fictional shows that were about rich people. Much more common was a household where one person (theoretically Dad in a het household) was the higher earner and paid the housing costs and the other paid utilities & food

and non-traditional omegaverse does worse.

i think a couple of facts can be pulled out: rom coms, and modern aus with high concept tropes on a whole do better than sci-fi/fantasy or things with plot heavy premises (removing omegaverse as a confounding factor, none of my sci-fi and fantasy are omegaverse). Gender swap, self-cest +

I also have fics on there that are 40k+ words and fics that are 20k and less. so the range of words is massive. in general my one shots have done better on average than my long fics.

as well as the overall kudos based on time on market for ppl to read. in addition, these includes multiple ships as well as polyamory, which probably change reader response as well.

THIS good lord this

The smell of the halal cart and wet growing things on the breeze

Some trees and a dirt path. a woman and a dog mid picture

A wide flat expanse of grass and a man with a bike

A trail with some leaves and stairs in the background

Maybe I’ll leave nyc… you say…then you have your first 60 degree day where everyone is happy at once and u decide NO

book checkpoint 📚

last: Skippy Dies - Paul Murray

current: Everything is Tuberculosis - John Green and Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries - Heather Fawcett

last added: Call me Ishmaelle - Xiaolu Guo

next: I think Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones but this could change 😅

I loved tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow 😭😭

Im actually so shooketh ive only done 45 of these. I feel like I’ve played it every day for years

Hell yes 1000th challenge 🫡

I also almost bought the most cunty y2k drop-waist pink dress up for Jin Tampa concert core but held off due to how revealing the fabric was. I need to able to layer booty shorts underneath and i really wasn’t sure I could. Starting to remember why we layered legging capris under everything lol

Purple cat eye nails next to a shaken espresso drink

Got bora nails for comeback season!!!

Sometimes it feels like these two groups are talking entirely past each other. I feel like if more gay men read het romance they would understand that the romance genre as a whole is about idealism, not realism -- it's not JUST poor representation, it's a misunderstanding of the genre

im in a deep fanfic reading slump and i need help & recs, but also i need ppl to understand that im annoying af to rec for and literally too many adjectives can piss me off🤧🤡

mood

The moodboard for the fic: pictures of galleries and painting frames; Jungkook in a burgundy suit looking down and smiling, showing lots of dimple; Namjoon in a white sweater with a white blazer over it, looking serious; champagne being poured into flutes.

how rude!!

Inspired by: listening to cortis lol

As an American rap music lover I’m feeling like creating a: “if you like this kpop artist/song you will like this rapper/r&b” artist thread…🤔

Skippy dies - Paul Murray. Author of the bee Sting 🤧🤧. This man can fucking construct a story out of trash bag.. his mind is just 🤌. Themes: bullying, coming of age, male toxicity/socialized violence, midlife crisis, generational something something (not exactly trauma per se), multi pov ++, abuse

The art thief - Michael finkle. Non-fiction. True story of one of the most prolific modern art thieves.

Just for the summer - abby Jimenez I’m 50% in. Again, I think another romance reader might enjoy it. I have some issues with the relationship and pacing with the b plot family dynamics

carmilla - j Sheridan le fanu. A bite sized “classic.” Themes: vampires, queerness, gothic horror

Funny story - Emily Henry. This was just okay. I wanted to like it more than I did —but I think a diff contemporary romance reader might like it. Themes: complicated families, abandonment issues +
