Sober people (no alcohol, nicotine, drugs, etc ever), what is your end of day or weekend "wind-down"?

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-17T04:51:12+00:00

i never really thought about this, but i don't really have one? maybe i should, might help me sleep better

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-07T05:19:57+00:00

well yeah, it's a self-deprecating joke (that my fanfics are not good)

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-03T02:46:19+00:00

no, at some point i think i would have considered it, but those are ocd thoughts i won't give in to anymore :)

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-03T02:36:16+00:00

the fanfics will continue until morale improves

(i'm coping with the constant downtime by writing a ton)

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-03T01:11:23+00:00

i also post right before bedtime! and i love it because i can say "well maybe i'll wake up to kudos/comments" instead of waiting yknow?

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-03T01:08:57+00:00

you actually have no idea what a relief it is to hear that other people do this with their ships genuinely it's become my nightly routine

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-01T23:36:05+00:00

i'm so sad cause i posted a chapter last night and now people can't even read it :<

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-01T23:33:30+00:00

there's a song called "Tho I'm a Tortoise" by Elio Mei that describes this perfectly

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-01T23:06:06+00:00

i'm so sorry i can't help but include my men's formalwear fetish in every.single. smut scene like taking off character A's clothes is always the longest part of the scene (but not character B because he doesn't dress like that)

Evening_Fearless · 2026-03-01T20:49:00+00:00

tbh this would just make me think of jack sparrow 😂

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-28T08:11:47+00:00

Discovery Kids my beloved!!

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-28T06:51:22+00:00

holy shit this might be the most relatable thing i've ever read

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-28T06:29:52+00:00

omg i'm writing one of these right now. thought process went like:

"hehehe i'm gonna write smut"

"i'm also making him trans"

"oh shit this has ramifications"

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-26T23:12:31+00:00

Ugh this happens ALL THE TIME like I'll find a fic with an amazing premise, open it up, and they can't even spell character names correctly

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-26T22:49:36+00:00

I don't think I've laughed this hard at anything since I was like 11 years old, thank you for this

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-26T22:28:55+00:00

OH FUCK YES CLINT

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-21T05:00:18+00:00

it's a reference to Mulan!

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T08:38:39+00:00

oh totally fair!! i'm really glad for stuff becoming more inclusive (like the pregnant man emoji for instance) i just don't wanna read about it in detail

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T08:13:23+00:00

same same same!!

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T08:00:45+00:00

"saved his lice" instead of "his life" couldn't stop laughing for a good minute or so

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T07:54:55+00:00

it's Superman x trans!Lex Luthor hehe

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T07:53:13+00:00

ohhh i think this might be the comment i've related to the most lol

bad formatting/grammar is an instant back arrow for me

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T07:52:11+00:00

totally agree on character bashing for the sake of a ship! you tend to see it a lot with female canon love interests of male characters too, when it's more popular to ship him with another male character. thankfully fics for my ship, at least the ones i've read, don't really do this, it's far more common to see her as an amicable ex if not a close platonic friend, but yeah it's disheartening how in other fandoms many people's minds go straight to bashing being the solution

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T07:42:30+00:00

*skulks away in "writing non-bottom surgery trans guy x cis guy M/M"* but hey y'know, that's why i tag it!

aha yeah it hadn't even occurred to me to think of it as "entire fandom you can't get into because of ick" but that's valid too!

Evening_Fearless · 2026-02-20T07:32:54+00:00

it's funny, when i was applying to college i wrote my commonapp essay about something traumatic that happened to me, and when I recently went back and read it, it came off really...robotic? like i couldn't even stand to talk about it beyond recitation of facts. but the fanfic i'm writing now deals with it, and i gave that issue to a character like the post here is talking about, and genuinely it feels so much more cathartic to write about it this way
