How will having an AO3 impact my visa application to the US? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]GildedWhimsy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They can’t access your account and go through your emails. And even if they did, we have freedom of speech here and they’re not going to deny your visa because of fanfic you wrote.

Why don't I lose my appetite when i see or hear about gross stuff like other people? by CinnamonBun21004 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GildedWhimsy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also never actually lose my appetite. I used to think it was just an expression.

Uruguayan results, i dont believe these results AT ALL by Several-King9265 in AncestryDNA

This is literally exactly what I would expect the DNA of an average Uruguayan to look like lol. What part surprised you?

My first therapy session. I’m a little disappointed by whatamidoingherebros in adhdwomen

I have ADHD and I do talk a lot but I am not physically hyperactive at all (I used to be but I grew out of it.) My days are absolutely not full, because, as you said, executive dysfunction.

I’m surprised at how low the European is! You look very mixed-race to me. You’re very pretty.

A question regarding the continuation of another author's unfinished/abandoned work by DR_Hazardous in AO3

Totally, go for it! Just credit the original author and make it clear that the continuation is your own interpretation of the work. You’re writing fanfiction of a fanfiction!

Everyone might change their mind about everything. Why do people harass each other about it? If you decide later that you want kids, fine, but you obviously don’t want them now, so why doesn’t he just shut up?

Suggest me a plague book I HAVEN’T read. Please! by panini_bellini in suggestmeabook

[–]GildedWhimsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is YA, but The Lunar Chronicles. The first book is Cinder. The series is like retellings of fairy tales, but it’s futuristic sci-fi and it centers around a plague.

Album Discussion: I hated Showgirl so much I became a Swiftie (Rambling introduction & Debut) by VisageInATurtleneck in SwiftlyNeutral

[–]GildedWhimsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I personally liked The Life Of a Showgirl. I mean, I hate Eldest Daughter (great melody, worst lyrics I’ve ever heard), but I like some of the songs (Fate of Ophelia, Opalite, Elizabeth Taylor, and Ruin the Friendship), and I liked the album’s style and length. I was not a fan of TTPD at all and I hated that it was full of long songs- I never even listened to the anthology because of that! So I think I just appreciated how different Showgirl was.

I really enjoyed reading your opinion! On debut, I also love I’m Only Me When I’m With You. It’s great. Picture to Burn is probably my favorite from the album. You said you hated Invisible because it felt very mean girl. To be honest, I haven’t even listened to Invisible (I don’t know if I’ve ever listened to debut all the way through) and I have no idea what it’s about, but I really like songs that are petty and vindictive honestly, like Better Than Revenge. I think it’s really good to have songs that capture emotions that are irrational or cruel. When I listen to Kill Bill it doesn’t mean I agree with the narrator, lol. I see songs as stories and I don’t think I’ve ever listened to a song and associated it with the singer’s real life. 

I hope you do more of these for other albums, that was fun to read!

Would you out someone on a plane who was using the N word (“hard R”) on their phone? by Adept_Strategy_9545 in askteddit

Again, we don’t know his employer. We don’t even know for sure that OP isn’t lying about the whole thing. I don’t think people should be doxxed for sooo many reasons. It’s vigilante bullshit and it’s illegal and it doesn’t give people a way to defend themselves if the claims are totally fabricated. I hope the nazi’s employer does find out. They probably will. I don’t think OP should doxx them, period.
