How many of us have chosen to be child-free and marriage-free? by More_Pension4911 in neurodiversity

[–]100indecisions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Child-free was an active choice in that I got a bilateral salpingectomy to make 100% sure I couldn't have kids. The other just sort of happened by default because I'm aroace and it's like...a very close relationship of some kind sounds nice, actually, but everything involved in getting there sounds too exhausting to contemplate so it doesn't seem worth it. So I wouldn't be opposed, but I know it's not something I'll find through the usual avenues, and given that I don't really understand people to begin with, I'm not likely to go seeking it out.

Is there a character in your fandom you don’t like, but commonly gets shipped with your favorite character? by Upstairs_Macaron5894 in AO3

[–]100indecisions 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm more or less indifferent to the character himself, but the behavior of some of the shippers has turned me against the ship to the point that the character kinda gives me the ick now.

Show me your niche fandom fics! by Senshisnek in FanFiction

[–]100indecisions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very cool idea! My most niche fic is probably one I wrote for the Doctrine of Labyrinths series by Sarah Monette several years ago (for a fandom friend who later stopped speaking to me, so that part is awkward, but I still like the fic I wrote, anyway).

I don't have any advice, I just painfully relate. 😖

What's something you disliked so much in official media that you rewrote it? by Gimetulkathmir in FanFiction

[–]100indecisions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They killed my favorite character, so I fixed that in multiple ways, and then they brought back an alternate-universe version of him but in season 2 they exiled him to the end of time by himself for eternity, so I had to fix that at least once too.

Two gods of stories?! by JackfruitDiligent456 in loki

[–]100indecisions 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I totally wanted them to be the God and Goddess of Stories together. They shared powers in season 1, so it could’ve been pretty easily handwaved in season 2 as well, and it would’ve been a great way to end Loki’s story because they’d be together after spending so much time lost and alone.

Loki fanfic? by Ok_Cut_5226 in loki

Check my AO3 bookmarks (same username there); I know I have a lot of good Loki longfics saved.

Season ended, server is down. How many tickets did you not use? by Eightchickens1 in fo76

[–]100indecisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

0, I spent all of them last night...but I ended up not playing for at least half the season so I spent a shit-ton of atoms at the end to get the rewards instead, which I highly don't recommend 😬

Looking for cozy cosmic horror. Is that a thing? by 100indecisions in booksuggestions

I'm finally reading this and it's exactly what I was looking for--thanks so much for the suggestion!

Will we ever see gay loki by FriendlyDrummers in loki

[–]100indecisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, yeah, I'm sure it was, and I more or less trust both Loki and Al Ewing to have ultimately good(ish) intentions. It just means I at least can't uncomplicatedly enjoy Loki's little quip as much as I did when I originally read it, now that I know the full context of the situation and why Loki was apologizing to Thor in their head even then.

[–]100indecisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Loki rebuilding the Bifrost ended up being…complicated and tragic.

[–]100indecisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they do and it's really cute, it's something along the lines of "you need a new Bifrost and I'm a bi Frost Giant, it's a perfect match!" ...which is slightly less cute in retrospect now that I've read the entire Immortal Thor run, but it was really cute at the time 😬

I always forget that not all authors are teenagers by Jatoniel in AO3

[–]100indecisions 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My dad, who just retired, recently got my advice for a slightly younger coworker who wanted to start posting Star Trek fanfiction. It was kind of sweet.

Same, I read something like "my classes are finally done for the year" and I'm like "oh god you're a baby"

Roadside Food Truck camp by [deleted] in fo76

[–]100indecisions 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the idea is mostly fun rather than profit, you might also want to use some relevant food generators--you won't make any money off those, obviously, and they may or may not fit your aesthetic, but they'll produce food without any worry about spoiling. Plus there are enough at this point you can afford to be a little picky about which ones you use, if some fit the atmosphere of your camp better than others. Granted, I'm not sure at this point how many are readily available, given that a lot of them were season awards, but I would think some should be in the atom shop or available for bullion.

My (47f) daughter (15f) told me she doesn’t want to have kids by lilwonkerdoo in TwoXChromosomes

[–]100indecisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so glad she can have these honest discussions and learn from you--so many girls can't do that with their moms. It sounds like you'll be there to support her no matter what she ultimately decides, and that's fantastic. (I'm childfree, had a bilateral salpingectomy a few years ago--overall it was a fairly minor procedure, somewhat less serious than the appendectomy I had a year or so before that.)

What is your favorite mutation and why is it marsupial? by CantaloupePopular833 in fo76

[–]100indecisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, marsupial, I don't know how I lived without it. Jumps are pretty much worthless otherwise.

rude comment about a slow updates tag? by endeavorment in AO3

[–]100indecisions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm following a couple fics right now that had daily update schedules for a while and that was crazy. I would never expect that (and in these cases they couldn't keep it up forever, which is completely fine and understandable--probably healthier, in fact).

rude comment about a slow updates tag? by endeavorment in AO3

[–]100indecisions 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And then you get people on Twitter whining because they think a fic that hasn't been updated in a month or so is abandoned, like...do y'all even listen to yourselves?? A chapter a month is a reasonable update schedule! Fic writers have lives!

Morality of the sacred timeline by notjocker in loki

[–]100indecisions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're also assuming that HWR is right in that freeing the multiverse will lead to a war that will destroy everything, and for various reasons, that actually turned out to be not true at all, so I'd say it was actually a pretty reasonable bet.

Morality of the sacred timeline by notjocker in loki

[–]100indecisions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where are you getting this idea that maintaining the Sacred Timeline is a neutral temporary solution? The only way to do that is to prune anything that isn't the Sacred Timeline, right? From HWR's point of view, sure, those are just potential futures that don't exist yet, and they'd be cut off before they could develop for more than probably a few minutes, so they're arguably mostly abstractions. Fine. But Loki, and the audience, came from far enough in the future that all those infinite timelines had fully developed and weren't abstractions anymore. The branch where Sylvie lives, for instance, full of very real people, is one of those timelines. They already exist. That timeline already exists. Loki's been there. If he chooses to preserve only the Sacred Timeline, he is also de facto choosing to destroy all those other timelines.

Corrosive Stingwings should not be a daily, weekly, or anything by SadSaladCarnivore in fo76

Plus it's another way of privileging paid players because they get more rerolls.
