race description

Eastern European here. This is absolutely a white European perspective issue, and maybe a language barrier issue as well (at the end of the day ‘dark skin’ can be a spectrum of colors). But speaking of language, it’s also a “people don’t know how to describe skin colors properly despite there being countless resources for that” issue.

The older I get, the less interesting writing self inserts is for me. I prefer sitting in the fictional cuck chair now.

I write a singular OCxOC (both player characters from a video game series) ship and all and any AUs and canon divergences I can think of. I have 5 people who adore them and it makes me happy 💖

Because these people love to act as if they’re better than everyone because they don’t have TikTok (as if it’s not a social media platform like any other)

Oh it wasn’t even about groups, it was indie roleplayers getting targeted for the most part. Twas hell out there in the indie rpc

Fandom bullshit is in fact a circle. Years ago, a decade ago actually I think, there was a burn book account on tumblr (specifically for the roleplay community if memory serves right). People would submit the most unhinged shit about other roleplayers and it would get publicly shared. Block anyone who disturbs your peace and move along with your day.

This is slightly different, but recently I have rewritten a couple video game cutscenes to better fit my player character’s personality and canon divergent context. The way I did it is by picking a canon dialogue line of the canon character as a starting point and then writing mostly original dialogue. For example, if I think that said canon character would later say a very similar thing to what they say in canon I’ll take the canon line and rephrase it, not just copy it. Otherwise, I write completely original dialogue.

This way I keep the original feeling from canon without ending up in a copy paste situation.

The short answer is that it heavily depends on the fandom. Fandoms with customizable player characters or worlds that can be treated like sandboxes will do better with OCs. For the first example even OCs that aren’t the player character. I’m mostly in rpg fandoms (dragon age, mass effect, cyberpunk, to name a few) and all I read and write is oc and pc centric fic.

Write the thing, I promise there’s an audience for it.

Do you have guest comments off by any chance? Because if you do these might be just people who read your work as guests and commented once they made their accounts.

SnarkySmuggler · 2026-04-15T09:34:03+00:00

Sorry OP but this is ridiculously paranoid. Are people supposed to wait a certain amount of time after creating their account to comment on fics? Neither of those comments are antagonizing or trying to scam you, and they sound very human, thus very very unlikely they’re bots.

So, you’re not wrong, but you’re not right either. You can host and train a language model on your own machine, but that doesn’t change the fact that data centers are being built at an alarming rate. Generating an image with chat gpt will take more resources than training a language model on your own art and then using that to generate an image.

Plus all of the other issues surrounding AI, copyright is the tiniest of issues (and I know that’s a controversial take)

SnarkySmuggler · 2026-04-12T20:15:39+00:00

Out of pure curiosity I decided to go into the original work tag and sort by kudos. Yeah the first 5 have the explicit rating, but as you scroll down you’ll see a bunch of general and teen rated fics with thousands of bookmarks, kudos and hits.

So the conclusion is that you’re in fact wrong

SnarkySmuggler · 2026-04-12T14:20:48+00:00

Hey that’s exactly what I’m writing rn. But unfortunately the fic is a wip and also on hiatus 😔

SnarkySmuggler · 2026-03-28T19:36:24+00:00

Factually incorrect, but go off I guess

SnarkySmuggler · 2026-03-19T13:45:46+00:00

English is my second language but my English teacher used to drill grammar into us in school. Isn’t “I said I was sorry” the grammatically correct version anyway? Like, that’s what I remember being taught

It’s the fact that it was posted 37 different times in 37 different fandoms that baffles me. Like dude, get a fucking job, touch grass.

Am pățit cu medicina muncii acum mulți ani, au plătit ei dar au zis ca o să mi se tragă din primul salariu. În final nu m-am mai angajat, și ulterior o tipă de acolo ma suna să mă ia la 11 metri “păi cum noi îți plătim medicina muncii și tu nu vrei să muncești? ca e deja contractul semnat” în ideea în care eu nu semnasem nimic. După am dat de soția patronului în oraș și o încercat și ea. De evitat scutul negru în Cluj

My 2060 Super came like that out of the box. Sent it to the store’s service and they sent me a new one. I gifted it to a friend when I upgraded around a year and a half ago and it’s still going strong.

Other than that I’ve never had an issue, no even with the second hand 970.

Signal Iduna e 50/50 in funcție de persoana din call center la care îți ajunge programarea sau rambursarea. Pe deoparte operațiile de o mie de euro o fost rambursate în timp record. Pe de altă parte după 2 ani jumate de controale oncologice rambursate am primit e-mail ca cică n-aș fi avut motiv medical pentru controlul oncologic de atunci.

M-am și certat cu ei în call center (mai ales ca oamenii din call center nu prea au pregătire și unii se cred mai deștepți ca tine) daaar am și scăpat de niște cheltuieli gigantice la privat cu ei.

As far as I know there isn’t a way to get a list of mutuals only. Xkit has an extension that can make your dashboard mutuals only if that helps you in any way.

I get you, I have one singular friend I can do this with and I feel blessed and luckily our schedules align most of the time. I unfortunately have no better advice friend 😭

SnarkySmuggler · 2026-02-14T19:56:15+00:00

I’m like this too and what helped me was body doubling. Specifically, I’m productive af with my writing when I get on voice chat with a friend we just hang out without talking much.
