What do you think of Rook's savanaclaw card? <333
I didn't get him (and I need to save my keys for Silver's birthday, sob) so I looked up his groovy, and I'm not over how incredibly dramatic and epic and cool it looks in direct contrast to the absolutely ridiculous context. just look at that dynamic action and his majestic sparkling tears and keep in mind that this is pretty much right after a bunch of characters have been dance battling for his soul.
and then even the actual moment of the groovy is just like
this is NOT a negative in the slightest, I love it all, this truly was an incredible update in so many ways

kind of obsessed with how glados woke up and saw chell with an orb in front of her and the first thing she did was pick up and crush chells orb without even knowing or caring about the context of any of that

You can be anti–intellectual property / pro–copyright infringement and still dislike plagiarism, they're different things. Fitgirl Repacks isn't pretending she made Assassin's Creed. The Phantom Edit literally tells you it's derivative in the opening crawl (if you somehow didn't already know). The only relationship between plagiarism and IP infringement is that—at least in the U.S.—plagiarism isn't explicitly illegal, so if a plagiarism case actually goes to court, it does so as an IP case.

Hey y'all! I have to preface this two-part question by saying it is not based on something I am currently experiencing, but something that happened years ago
1. Can anaphylaxis cause low blood sugar?
2. How bad is a blood sugar level in the 40s?
Again, based on something from years ago, not now (just in case someone skipped the first paragraph)
Like, I understand that that's very low blood sugar and is bad but idk how bad? At the time it happened I was at an urgent care and, uh, not tracking what was happening super well (both the things definitely happened at the same time, but I am unsure if they were related things)

I'm trying to figure out why I have such a knee-jerk negative reaction to any fic that describes Jess as wearing the leather jacket in the "wrong place" (as in, at a time when he never wore it in the series). Because, in theory, that's such an insignificant detail, right? But I think it's because Jess's leather jacket is so overwhelmingly associated to me with the "bad boy" image/stereotype he has, which I feel very strongly is a misunderstanding and oversimplification of his character. And that jacket only represents the worst point of his character! He has NEVER worn that jacket at a time when he was with Rory! He never wore it when they were falling in love, he never wore it when they were dating, but only when they were separated! And he has NEVER worn that jacket at a time when he was happy!!! Only ever when he was MISERABLE and at his LOWEST! Like, WHY would you feel nostalgic for that specific point in his life?! And if the answer is just "I think he looks hot that way," I feel like... if THAT'S your "favorite version" of Jess, that's FINE, it's whatever... But I don't think we read the character in the same way or like him for the same reasons, and well... that makes me doubt I'll be able to enjoy it.

i just quoted Horse With No Name lyrics in an extremely deadpan toneless way to em, who blinked at me for a second, then—with a slight air of desperation—went "you can't say that shit to me at 3am"

"Getting no feedback is so discouraging!"
You know what's even more discouraging? Seeing authors you know are loads better than you also get no feedback.
At least if it's just you, you can say "well I must not be very good yet, but I can get better!".
But if you see the Nobel-Prize-in-Literature-winner-level writer of smut over there also getting crickets on their fics, then you know you're just fucked.
(Maybe my fics don't deserve love but there's *definitely* do!)
