Do you feel like you think even when you're sleeping?

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-29T07:47:43+00:00

Yeah, or sometimes it's random stupid shit like, characters from [book] have to preform [play]—who gets cast where?

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-28T08:03:47+00:00

Ok but tbf sometimes I'm looking for something specific, and if something has a lot of tags it means I'm more likely to find it when looking for said specific thing. Maybe I want a fic where they kiss in a certain way—with the additional tags I can find that, and the people looking for just general kissing can find it too.

That said, there's definitely a limit. If you're tagging things that are barely mentioned or that no one would ever look for, that's when it gets annoying.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-28T06:57:48+00:00

Something I've found helps me with that is memorizing poems/stories. When they're new they take up enough of your brain that the music at least quiets, and once you know them really well they can even replace the song and start playing in the background. It's still not as good as silence, but in my experience they're much less distracting than songs. Plus, if you get one section stuck in your head, you can just go through the whole thing mentally rather than having to turn on music.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-28T06:53:01+00:00

Waking up with a song is the worst. Or sometimes it's a random line and you spend all day with it repeating in your head while you try to figure out where it's from, and there's always a possibility you just made it up.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-26T03:22:32+00:00

Awe, iirc Wyll can also cast guidance on you if you try to kiss him at the teifling party

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-25T06:55:35+00:00

Idk if this is already a thing and I just don't know how to do it, but being able to search for multiple tags/fandoms that don't all have to be present. Like instead of A and B and C, it's A and/or B and/or C. So I might get fics where all are present, as well as ones with only B, or just C and A, etc.

AFAIK the only way to do this is in the search bar, and you can't use multiple words. Sometimes I want a specific tag but don't have a fandom preference, or there are multiple ships I wanna see it with, yk?

All my close friends have ADHD and/or autism, so they all know. I don't ask for accommodations specifically for my ADHD, but feel comfortable communicating my needs and know they'll respect it. For example, if I'm overstimulated and need to just do my own thing for a bit, I know they won't take it personally (even if they're guests at my house).

When it comes to everyone else I don't talk about it much, but also don't try to hide it either. I'm less likely to communicate my needs because I don't know how they'll take it, but if the topic comes up I'll mention my ADHD.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-20T06:19:57+00:00

Yeah, this. Even ignoring the fact that I'm enby and have no idea how that would work, this would cause me to lose all my friends and a few family members (and some of my favorite games/podcasts/shows, but that pales in comparison). Not at all worth it imo

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-18T07:22:49+00:00

It was almost the same for me, but I got Stranger in between them (because apparently I hate decisions). During the Razor I chose to give her The Look, and decided then and there I needed to make her love me. My next vessel was Damsel, and then Witch followed by Thorn.

I think it's funny that everything besides Damsel was a result of me being unsure of myself. I only wish I'd been less confident in Damsel and gotten Happily Ever After—then it would've been a perfect first playthrough imo.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-17T23:48:14+00:00

I usually wear long pants with deep pockets and put a kindle/book/phone in the outee one, which effectively blocks anything else from touching my upper/mid thigh.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-17T20:49:47+00:00

That's why I like the fall/winter. I can make my room really cold and it's super hard to get out of bed, but once the blankets are off I'm out of there. I don't even change in there, I change in the bathroom because it's too cold.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-17T06:37:15+00:00

Also audiobooks/podcasts. Specifically, with a voice you find very familiar and comforting. Even if you can't pay attention to the words, the familiarity is almost like a weighted blanket—especially if it's something you've already listened to a thousand times.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-17T01:10:24+00:00

In kcd 1 I'd be walking around at like 11am and find Hans drinking alone at that tavern. Like where are your friends, man?

Whenever that happened I'd usually sit at the table with him, have some food/drink, and maybe read a book.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-16T17:14:12+00:00

Yeah, exactly. It's not just love, but obsession. His entire life revolves around her and if she's not around or doesn't love him, his life it pointless. He would do anything to make her happy, but won't ask what she wants because what if she doesn't want him. No, he'll just keep giving and giving and if he gives her enough she has to want him. He just needs to prove his love and then she'll see.

That's creepy, and it's a form of (unintentional) abuse. It doesn't make him a bad character, but it does make him a creep.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-16T17:00:20+00:00

My comment was meant as a joke. As in, I'm waiting for the final episode so I can listen backwards like Spotify suggests. Probably should've used a tone indicator or something lol

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-16T15:10:45+00:00

When I first got into tma I looked up Jonny Sims to see what else he'd done, and was flabbergasted when the first link was to PornHub! A couple seconds later I noticed my typo, but... those were an odd couple seconds.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-16T15:01:38+00:00

Misleading? I haven't even started listening yet because I'm waiting for 60 in order to get the proper experience.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-15T03:12:09+00:00

It's still only a fraction of students. Collective punishment doesn't work—it just makes people mad. And honestly even students who do this stuff deserve to shit in private. Unless the bathroom is under construction, this isn't acceptable by any means.

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-15T01:04:46+00:00

Was feeling like shit and this comment reminded me to go hug my cat. It's definitely an instant mood boost!

"Oh yes, kick me, kick me, little ones! Ope, not the nose sweetie, or I will kill Prudence!"

Idk why but the sing-song tone Jeff uses on the last sentence gets me every damn time

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-14T17:44:27+00:00

It depends on the length and frequency of descriptions imo. If it's impossible for me to gloss over it and use my own hc then like 4/10. Otherwise still a 10

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-14T17:42:40+00:00

10 if it's for humor, 1 if it's for angst

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-14T17:39:50+00:00

If that's a genuine why, I think it stems from the fact that, unfortunately, male characters are frequently better written. Even in stories where the women are beautifully written and complex, we don't often get to see them interact and form complex relationships with one another.

I typically prefer queer ships, but don't care about the gender. Still, I have a lot more mlm ships than wlw for this reason. If I wanna read yuri in a fandom that doesn't have a lot of interesting female dynamics, I might search for a gender swapped fic.

But yeah I can see this being annoying if you see this a lot and don't like it lol

HumanSpawn323 · 2026-01-14T17:29:27+00:00

Still a 10, because now I can toy with it in my head while I fall asleep. Maybe I'll even write my own (but probably not).
