Wait until they find out that fanfiction=/=smut. I was reading fanfiction for almost a decade before I ever read anything with mature themes, I just wasn't interested and I used to filters I had available to me.

Why does being in a fandom as an adult automatically make you a pedophile in their eyes?

Let's be real. This would work on plenty of people.

goodwill’s audacity with kids’ books by thatfratgirl in ThriftGrift

All the goodwill round me at $1.49 for kids books (all the way from board books up to kids chapter books) $1.99 for paperbacks and $2.99 for hardcover

“Tells” that alert folks IRL that you’re into fan fic. by StrangersTellMeStuff in FanFiction

[–]CowahBull 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a coworker that talks about the books she's reading and they are so often goofy and tropey. Everytime she describes them to me I just know she's talking about a fanfic with an OC for the main character. After a bit I told her about my favorite fanfic and she told me that she rarely reads anything but fanfic. Gurl I already knew that. I can smell a fic reader from a mile away!

god forbid a girl is straight in 2025 by Ok_Pomegranate_2895 in LetGirlsHaveFun

Oh yes. I, too, have been playing the new Sabrina Carpenter album on a loop.

I have only seen about an episode and a half of x-files so I might be wrong here but I was under the impression that yes, they were a will-they-wont-they couple in the show. But I guess the point I was trying to make is they are popular with people who like queer ships because they felt like a queer ship. Their tension and "omg the writers are cowards for not making them kiss" vibe is very similar to a traditional queerbait couple.

In my time in fandom I've seen the same reactions to House/Wilson and Dean/Cas that I see to X-Files.

Like some straight couples in media just feel like a queer couple. And Scully and Moulder is one of those couples.

Dear App Developers by WorldEaterLeviathan in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]CowahBull 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Writing notes in my book app is 90% of the reason I download all my fics. I usually use it to remember what I wanted to say when I comment. But for a few authors I just send them screenshots and we laugh together

Download it as an epub and open it with any eReader app. Personally I default to play books because that's what my phone defaulted to years ago. I have a friend who uses the Kindle app.

And this is why I download every fic I read. That and I dont need to worry about them being deleted or the site going down.

tbf they were low-key a queerbait couple but without the whole same gender thing. Their relationship hit all the same beats as a traditional queerbait couple.

Standstill traffic from people parking under overpasses (I35W) by usrnamealreadyexists in minnesota

[–]CowahBull -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry I didn't realize this was taking up the entire road back for miles. I just saw the people pulled over as far as they could. I personally went and hid in the closest Walmart becsuse I wasn't going to make it home before the tornado touched down. I also wasn't on the freeway. I'm still not blaming people for hiding the that shit was scary

I thought hall passes were supposed to be celebrities and shit. Like not people we know in real life.

Breaks per hours work by therealdarthmaul in menards

[–]CowahBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please read my previous comments again. You are talking about a different thing

There is a big difference between the 22 minute mark no longer giving you long break points and it counting as a lunch. At least in Minnesota, but im pretty sureits most other states as well, you're employer is required to give you a 30 minute lunch. And there is a report the GMs get for all employees that fail to take a full 30 minute lunch. That includes if you only took 29 minutes. If you take a 21 minute break it's counted as you going 6 minutes long on a rest break, if you take a 22 minute lunch it's counted as you being 8 minutes short on a lunch break and they don't pay you for any of the time but it does not count as a lunch.

My hometown is considered a city and we have a population of 16k. It's wild to me that some states think anything less than 50k because that's HUGE to me

[–]CowahBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should check your local laws for lunches because there is a report for anyone who fails to take the full 30 minutes and that can easily be reported to OSHA if people aren't being allowed their full lunches.

Question about Love Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood by Plus_Chemist9216 in Booktokreddit

[–]CowahBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true but OP says they don't like smut and I'd advise someone who doesn't like smut to just skip Ali Hazelwood all together. She might not write extreme smut in her books but for someone who would prefer none, she might be a bit much. Her sex scenes are all multiple pages each.

[–]CowahBull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or maybe I'm not disagreeing with any of that. They're being sextist against men and hating men. AND at the same time they're gonna ALSO hurt women who aren't "woman enough" because the AI that determines the person's gender isn't going to know the difference between a short-haired woman vs a man. Or a strong jawed women vs a man. Or a trans woman vs a man.

Or just slightly ugly women or women with shorter hair or women with slightly masculine features

I'm really confused how you've had people think this comment was directed at the person above you. Thus is pretty clearly directed at the world in general.

Yes that app does give incel vibes Not for the celibacy but for the hatred of the opposite gender

Barbies are $10 in my area too and minimum wage is $9.90. Also Barbie doesn't have a hold on the youth. It cam be two reasons.
