My doctor and therapist: now with this autism + ADHD diagnosis you need to learn to unmask because masking all the time will make you burn out again and feel like shit
Other people: well it's just interesting how after getting the diagnosis you suddenly start behaving like that I mean I'm not saying you're faking it's just funny how you suddenly cannot be normal like you were before
how is it mario day and no one posted the essay
i'm a writer irl (can't say who because my agent would put me into a blender and press go) and honestly the funniest and most humiliating incident of my life was the time my finished manuscript triggered a plagiarism flag with the publisher for two lines of prose in my literary fiction novel...
.... which was word for word similar to a paragraph in a certain explicit work on FFN starring elrond and his batsman from the hobbit films, aka that one elf that looked like he ate panic attacks for breakfast (i forget his name but it's Figwit II) where the lord of imladris bends said twink over his writing desk and gives him the battering ram treatment.
and if you think i had to sit in front of one if the biggest publishing companies in the world and admit that it was, in fact, me who wrote the fic where the lord of imladris bends said twink over his writing desk and gives him the battering ram treatment in order to avoid being wrongly flagged for plagiarism, you would be absolutely correct.
(yes they published the book)
i know its the mets, but this is the coolest shit i’ve ever seen a human being do
I started Inktober a day late. I ended up drawing this yesterday. If anyone sees this have a good day!
Is it me or is all the for you page just... screenshots of other websites rather than art now? What happened? I don't like it, I want my art back
#an amazing fucking book!
Ep 01 >
The Housecat Philosophy, Ep 0 (this one!) and Ep 1 (Patreon Preview!!) are up on Patreon for all my patreons to see! I’m very very nervous and very very excited right now haha
If you feel like it and have the possibility to support me, you can head over there to read the first strip! I’ll post a new one starting from today each Monday. Otherwise in time a month (once Ep 5 will be up on patreon) I’ll start posting over here too one strip each Wednesday, I hope you’ll be interested enough to follow along either way!
The dynamic in Rise between the rest of the team and Leo is. so fucking funny. Because like you've got these three extremely talented individuals who all seem like perfectly reasonable people at first glance, right, but then if you squint hard enough you realize they're actually all batshit insane (affectionate) and the clown boy standing behind them is secretly their common sense.
Clown boy will occasionally put himself and the others in danger to Prove Himself or Prove Someone Wrong (see Minotaur Maze and the movie) but like otherwise... i think people forget Leo's overwhelmingly the voice of reason in most situations?
Raph, Mikey, and Donnie are all incredibly powerful boys with very specific skill sets. They are also, as a direct result of this, the WORST decision-makers on god's green earth lmao. When presented with a problem, Raph will smash, Donnie will blow shit up, and Mikey will razzmatazz. They will all run straight toward death with the same oblivious enthusiasm of a dog about to run straight into a screen door. None of them realize this and all of them think they are Extremely Good At Problem-Solving.
And the guy cursed with the common sense to realize this is literally the LAST person anyone would expect.
When you look closely, the entirety of Rise is actually a chronicle of Leo trying to find new and creative ways to keep this team of superpowered fools alive while simultaneously white-knuckling his Cool Fun Guy persona so the others don't realize he's secretly the Boring Responsible One. Haha, you know what would be Cool and Fun, guys? Not going after the Spine Breaking Bandit lol. Getting home before the sun goes up lol. Evacuating that civilian lol. Not telling the guy dangling me off a roof "you won't, no balls" lol.
The sacred struggle of every iteration of Leonardo is thanklessly wrangling the most trigger-happy siblings in the world, and Rise Leo has not escaped it. He just does an occasional shenanigan to avoid detection and his brothers fall for it every time.
I enjoy reading a Dead On Main fic every once in a while, so I decided to make a fic rec list for some of them! They are in no particular order. I did not rec any of my own fics.

[A Deal with the Ghost King] by JaxinKH
Jason unintentionally makes deals with Danny, the ghost king. Mainly for dates. Very funny!
2.[Rooftop Express] by EmeraldsAndAmethyst
Watch that rating! This is an M one, folks. Honestly, Danny is just chaos incarnate and watching him and Jason slowly fall for each other is a ton of fun.
3. [I Don't? Work Alone] by DomesticatedOpossum
Phantom starts working for the criminal Red Hood, taking out the small guys while Hood takes out the big fish. Dialogue is great, there are some wonderfully funny moments and some good mystery in there. It deals with the messiness of family and trauma really well.
4. [Like Betta Fish Do] by PaperPuffing
It's a mistake anyone could make right? Trespassing into someone else's haunt. Well they meet, and spar, and then are just cuties together <3
5. [I Am A Retired Hero and My Love Interest Is a Former Crime Lord?!] by Shy Crow
Danny accidentally kills the Joker, and Jason just immediately gets a crush. It's fun, has a unique premise, and I'm really enjoying it so far!
6. [Danny Fenton: Dead and Loving It] by HyperKid
Another M rated one!
Massively long fic, but oh so good! The humor in this is great and I really like what I've read so far.
7. [Love is an Open Door (You are the door)] by violetmoreviolent
Jason just insta falls in love and is an adorable mess XD Premise is A ++ too, with Jason being a portal Danny can come thorugh.
8. [Wait For It] by DisillusionedDanny
Danny met Jason and Damian in the League. Jason tries to win his ex-boyfriend back. It's a lovely fic that deals with confronting and owning up to your own mistakes.
9. [Can I Kiss You?] by Petite_Phthora
Jason is smitten Danny after he accidentally killed the Joker.
10. [Reverence] by Halfagone
This is rated M, so be cautious and do read the warnings! Soulmate AU! Pretty damn cute and a little heated! Very lovely fic <3
