Let the poor man rest.

But can we imagine Harry turning all of Draco’s insults into something sexual just to piss him off.

“Doesn’t Harry Potter just fucking suck?” “Sucks dick, but not yours Malfoy, don’t take it too hard”

“Fucking Potter with his fucking-” “I have to stop you there Malfoy, any talk of fucking and I seem to become irritable.”

“I swear to god if Potter says one more thing” “Trust me Malfoy, a night with me and you’ll only be able to moan one thing”

“Nope noPe nOPe NOpE fuck you Potter”

“Gladly"

can we talk about sex workers in Good Omens being actual people who just happen to exist instead of caricatures wedged into the narrative to test “morality”

like how much respect do we pay to those works that don't make sex workers look like cautionary tales, or damsels in distress to be rescued, or even villains to be slain just to make a point

fellas is it gay to always have your eyes on best friend turned arch nemesis displayed constantly in official illustrations

If I could see you / once more to see you…

If I could have done it all again, I would have loved you better. But I could not have loved you more. (1) (2)

Idgaf if you don't want to write essays for school. I don't care if you don't want to write corporate emails yourself. I don't care if you can't draw well, I don't care if you can't write well, I don't care if you just really really want to talk to your favorite fictional character but don't want to RP with a real person because you have social anxiety or whatever

If you're still regularly using generative ai, chatgpt or midjourney or character.ai or literally whatever the fuck, im personally blaming you when my utility prices start going up.

In the spirit of encouraging people to comment on fanfics while also making it easier to do so, I feel obliged to share a browser extension for ao3 that has quite literally revolutionized the comment game for me.

I present to you: the floating ao3 comment box!

From what I've seen, a big problem for many people is that once you reach the comments at the bottom of a fic, your memory of it miraculously disappears. Anything you wanted to say is stuck ten paragraphs ago, and you barely remember what you thought while reading. This fixes that!

I'll give a little explanation on the features and how it works, but if you want to skip all that, here's the link.

The extension is visible as a small blue box in the upper left corner.

(Side note: The green colouring is not from the extension, that's me.)

If you click on it, you open a comment box window at the bottom of your screen but not at the bottom of the fic. I opened my own fic for demonstrative purposes.

The website also gives explanations on how exactly it functions, but I'll summarize regardless.

insert selection -> if you highlight a sentence in the fic it will be added in italics to the comment box

add to comment box -> once you're done writing your comment, you click this button and the entire thing will automatically copied to the ao3 comment box

delete -> self explanatory

on mulitchapter fics, you will be given the option to either add the comment to just the current chapter or the entire fic

The best part? You can simply close the window the same way you opened it and your progress will automatically be saved. So you can open it, comment on a paragraph, and then close it and keep reading without having the box in your face.

Comments are what keep writers going, and as both a writer and a reader, I think it's such an easy way of showing support and enthusiasm.

'People are panicking about AI tools the same way they did when the calculator was invented, stop worrying' cannot stress enough the calculator did not forcibly pervade every aspect of our lives, has such a low error rate it's a statistical anomaly when it does happen, isn't built on mass plagiarism, and does not obliterate the fucking environment when you use it. Be so fucking serious right now
