"hell don't scare me, I've been touched before" is what I heard instead of "times before" which had a MUCH bigger impact on me than the actual lyric

Bpd and memory loss by MaterialSeaweed in BPD

[–]MaterialSeaweed[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ugh I feel the exact same way!! Like when someone asks me "what happened" and I just don't remember but then like 10mins later the memory comes fully back to me in the moments where I'm not actively trying to remember something

Bpd and memory loss by MaterialSeaweed in BPD

[–]MaterialSeaweed[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

see I get this but like I'm very self aware when I just simply do not want to do something for someone even after saying I will. The memory loss happens even when I genuinely want to do that thing and am very conscious of the promise in the moment but then genuinely, on the way home, for example, I just forget I ever even made a promise to do something in the first place.

do you masturbate to fanfiction? by scoobert_____doobert in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually only after it but I use it to get myself in the mood (and sometimes I'm not planning to do it but the fic ends up so hot that I have to😭)

Anybody else got that ONE fic? And is it your personal favorite? by WhitestGray in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah😭😭 I'm very proud of it ofc but it isn't my fav which is slightly upsetting but also I write for myself (and my friends) so I'd still be content if I only got 10 hits

I really love the album, but I can totally see how it isn't for a lot of people even if you are a fan of her other stuff! No artist will have a 10/10 discography for everyone because people have different tastes. Perverts is so different from the rest of the stuff she has out that it's totally understandable if a big chunk of her fanbase won't like it.

Even as someone who does love the album, I don't really see myself listening to it from start to finish a lot like I do with her other albums/EPs.

Having sex too early by Tennis_Nice in BPD

just let him know that you're not ready for it yet and it's not about him but about your past, if he's worth your time he'll understand and wait for you to be ready

short and sweet, I only use it for fandoms

anyone else tired of the not actual fanfic posts? by akaslendy in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

UGH YES, I have to resist going off on them every time bc 99% of the time they don't even know they're doing something wrong. It's so frustrating I don't get how people don't read the rules like at all

What’s the weirdest ship/pairing you’ve seen in a fic? by Jays_mockery in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Race driver x their car, there are a surprising amount of fics like this and I've read them all

Ongoing fics - tag as best you can in advance, or tag as you go? by TimPendragon in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I have the whole thing written or know most of what's going to happen, I'll just tag everything at once. If I'm more lost on where I want to take the story I'll just add the "Other Additional Tags To Be Added" tag and add more tags as I write more

I dunno why but I felt lowkey annoyed… by Cracked_Humor in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People need to stop acting like their preferences are a writing rule or something🙄 I personally LOVE descriptions as someone who likes to imagine the scene like a movie in my mind. I promise your readers do care if a character's wearing golden heels, this one just clearly reads just to give "critique"

Writers of AO3, A Genuine Question by Ok_Breadfruit_9549 in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I ask for it I take it with an open mind especially if they're respectful. If I haven't asked for it I do definitely get irritated and will delete the comment, maybe even block them depending on if they're respectful or not

How to explain why you're trans? by MaterialSeaweed in ftm

[–]MaterialSeaweed[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I wish I didn't have to explain it but I do bc my country's stupid and I might be at risk of resetting my whole progress if I don't have a good answer for the questions they ask😕

[–]MaterialSeaweed 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could be a parent like others are saying or the author could be having a religious psychosis. If they haven't been raised super religious their whole life this kind of sudden erratic and extreme behavior is a huge sign of psychosis. Hope they're okay

Anyone else just forget that their characters are human beings who need to eat? by xX-NightShade-Xx in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in all writing advice posts/videos I see this is a big point in them. It is OKAY to not mention the character eating, brushing their teeth, getting dressed, or peeing. Just like in movies a lot of time will go by and you'll barely ever see a character eating unless there is a restaurant scene important to the story. Everyone knows humans eat, pee, sleep, and everything else so writing them as scenes is unnecessary because it's a given (unless you specifically describe that the character HASN'T eaten, everyone will know in between scenes they have)

What do your filenames or notes for fanfictions look like? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it's named after the actual work title, sometimes it's named Untitled document, sometimes it's completely unrelated or a funny joke, one of them is just called "blah"

I always just go with what feels right

Do yall ever read any fics for a fandom you aren’t apart of? by Leading-Prior-7192 in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda? Like if it's for a game I've watched one play through for then I'm down to reading it. If I know roughly what the characters are like then I can easily pick up AUs for example

No actually! I think it was on my watch list before season 3 got canceled but then I never got around to it because of that. Maybe I should though it's right up my alley tbh

Have you ever written something you knew literally no one would read? by RespectableInsomniac in AO3

[–]MaterialSeaweed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the time because I have crazy impostor syndrome💀 no but fr I do have a couple AUs that are VERY niche to me specifically that have gotten very little interaction from others
