But when vegans feel this way about meat y’all hurt 🤗

Somehow. Some way. You brought up veganism. In a discussion about second hand smoke.

im sorry i know ive already reblogged this but this is literally mind-boggling to me. all jokes aside, if someone is eating meat in a restaurant where you’re eating your vegan option, your life is not affected by their choice, and theirs is unaffected by yours. if you go out to meet friends, and you order a soft drink, and someone else at the bar orders an alcoholic drink, again, neither person is affected by the others choice.

but if someone is smoking, everyone in the vicinity is affected by that choice. they get secondhand smoke whether they like it or not. they could be asthmatics, allergic to tobacco, or have lung cancer, they could even be trying to overcome a smoking addiction themselves. and sure, there are designated smoking areas, but this doesn’t seem to stop people from smoking wherever they please. and yes, addictions are horrible and those suffering deserve care and support. but having an addiction does not give you the right to put other people’s lives at risk. your addiction is not more important than someone’s life.

so if shaming smokers is what it takes to get them to smoke in the designated areas, and not wherever they fancy, then yes, i am 5000% in favour of shaming smokers. i can’t believe alcoholism and veganism even got brought up here. their consumption only affects that person. smoking affects everyone.

Hey - if you’re working on a fic and it’s going slower than you planned, if you’re trying to work on a fic but the words just won’t come, if you want to work on a fic but you just have too many other things going on or you can’t get in the right headspace for writing, if you haven’t worked on your fic in a while… it’s okay.

Fanfic is free, and we all do it for fun. You don’t owe it to anyone. You aren’t letting anyone down if you don’t update on time - or at all. Sometimes, the words run out. Sometimes, you abandon the fic. Sometimes, you take a break for months, or even years. It’s okay.

And to anyone out there who thinks it’s okay to demand updates, or leave comments on fics you don’t like about how you don’t like them, or insult, trash-talk, or criticise fanfic writers… it’s not. Fanfic writers don’t owe you updates, or the specific story you want, or anything else. Fanfic writers are fuelled by compliments and positive feedback; they are discouraged by criticism and demands for updates and anything that makes them feel guilty.

So, if you want a writer to update? Support them. Encourage them.

But yeah, seriously, it’s okay not to update on time, or at all. It’s okay to write the story how you want to, even if some randomer on the internet doesn’t like it. Ignore those people. They are rude and their opinions don’t matter.

Also: some days, the muse doesn’t co-operate. Some days you’ll produce nothing but crap. That happens to literally every creative person, so don’t be too hard on yourself, okay? This is supposed to be fun. And you do not, in any way, have to do it if it’s not fun.

Last year I finished a fic that had been in my WIP folder for six years. (And I’m very happy with the results.)

It’s not a race.

fuck france but i love love love love the entire concept of the catacombs. there are literally just tunnels running under like all of paris? are you shitting me? and you can just get some snacks and go under there and chill out if you want you don't need a license or anything you just need someone who can find their way around there a little. you can just leave work one day and go "fuck this i wanna see some bones" and head on down there and fuck dude you might see some bones! you might just see some bones
