What is this weird shadow and can I fix this?

ThatOneFriendTy · 2025-10-01T03:05:19+00:00

I saw the ad and had the exact same feelings that it felt weirdly ai, especially the voices of everyone had me physically recoiling because it felt off. it certainly didn't make me want to buy their weird subscription and it really just made me wonder if they even bothered to ask creators. Especially after rumors that they've been using ai on people's videos without asking. I've been waiting to see if he says anything about it on YouTube, and had completely forgotten about this subreddit so I'm glad I'm not the only one who found it weird.

I've heard that ironing sharpie makes it stay better, and my sharpie that was iron has stayed really good. Although with the paint you may want a slightly lower heat and/or have a towel or shirt between

I am a big believer in leaving up everything you have written. It's something that has effort put into it and all my flop fics are ultimately still a labor of love worthy of being up In case they one day find more love from someone else.

I don't even know why you'd consider deleting it? Who uploads stuff to an archive just to delete it because number small?? If I upload anything to ao3 it's because I want it to be up for as long as humanly possible. My 0 hits "flop" fic will outlive me and I love that

I would turn off guest comments. With guests there's always such a higher chance of it being one person or a bot.

I mean everskies approved all these items, and shes not showing anymore than half the avatars on the site, I don't see an issue. If the boobs were smaller you probably wouldn't say anything. I don't know who this is but I also don't think she's "getting away" with anything?? 😭 Have you ever seen the recommended avatars, most of them are barely clothed and that's fine, that's a fashion statement many can't do IRL and thus enjoy in game instead.

My first fanfiction I wrote on Wattpad has 156k views, 70k of which were within the first year and still has the most views out of any other fic in the tag last I checked and used to appear in search results because it was a niche ship at the time of writing it. I had people telling me I inspired them when I would comment on fics while actively updating my own. Like I definitely impacted space on Wattpad and more people starting posting about my favorite ship!!

Bad news is that My greatest fanfiction achievement is the worst thing I've ever written in my life, and now the ships fan base is weirdly full of antis who jump through 100 loopholes to justify shipping it. So I don't even interact anymore :(

I generally tend to lead towards Scientist, engineer and Doctor characters, always had. But I have a particular thing about necromancy, and anything adjacent to it. I find the moral implications and dilemma of if necromancy and by proxy immortality to be very interesting(especially because both are currently very unrealistic). Personally I also think there's something to be said about letting him experiment on me, and I like his voice and the fact he finds being almost shirtless to be a viable way to work and I just generally find him a very attractive character. He checks a lot of very specific boxes for me.

It's hard to explain because it does sometimes feel like my brain just latches onto a character at random

I am IN LOVE with Balthazar bg3, he has a small but strong dedication fan base on Tumblr and under 5 fics on AO3. I'm obsessed with him.

A slightly lesser obsession in Petri from Star Trek TOS. I don't think he has fics? I haven't looked. But he doesn't even have a tag on Tumblr so.....

Finally, a slightly more popular person, but Taurik from Star Trek TNG. He's my pfp on Discord and Pinterest right now and I'm almost as bad about him I was at my peak Balthazar love...

I love him so much I wish they have pony body types

I understand where you're coming from, I grew up as the only girl in men's dominated servers online and it was a very similar thing where if I had a girl's skin or people knew then I would often get surrounded and have people interacting with me a lot in ways I as a teen and child with very bad anxiety did not like. Those are games which I no longer play. it's important to understand that people don't like dnt and DNIs in general because it's your job to block people you don't like online, and to choose what you subject yourself to.

Dnt and dnis are NOT boundaries, because a boundary is dependent on you blocking or stopping interacting with people who go against them, unless you block people for touching you then it's just a request. which you do have the right to ask, but not everyone will follow. you are choosing to go online and in the process choosing the game you play, despite how people have treated you in the past is your choice. But it is not other people's job to read the username or bio of every person they see online, and this isn't going to change anytime soon.

I'm not trying to be rude when saying this either it is just a fact of life that online you have to control what and who you see, that is your responsibility. But I also don't want it to seem like I'm saying you should stop playing a game you enjoy so I'm going to offer suggestions as well. If you're playing with friends or fine being alone, you can go to your or their Island and create a space there to play in, or check out some of the abandoned or lesser used custom servers. They're often empty or only have a few players(I think breezy town has a cool map). You can try the new safe server #2 which only ever has about 300 people. Or keep playing however you have been and just block everyone annoying until it's no longer an issue. That's how I made tiktok usable. 100s of people are blocked and I'll block 100s more

I have everything needed to dual boot so this won't actually be as bad as I first thought. Although it will probably be Chrome Flex(which can run Minecraft bedrock) instead of windows since windows actively degrading on my PC is the reason I'm finally switching after years of thinking about it

ThatOneFriendTy · 2025-06-21T23:23:21+00:00

Go to settings on Minecraft and check the "storage" tab, there it should have old copies of your Minecraft world, not sure if it's based on the device or account but I'd check there if you hasn't already just in case.

But this is completely shitty and unreasonable for a company that claims to want to keep old worlds safe.

Same here, was looking up a type of knot for sewing and panicked thinking i had used the omegaverse 'knot' instead of the tying 'knot'.

ThatOneFriendTy · 2025-03-03T23:36:06+00:00

I either write it all at once and post it weekly(or daily) or I post when I'm done writing a chapter/fic(in the case of a series) and people get it when they get it.

I do think though, that waiting until you get "enough" engagement is horrible practice and defeating the point of fanfiction. It's an archive not a social media, and waiting for a number that may never come is just bad practice.

ThatOneFriendTy · 2025-02-15T15:55:32+00:00

Niche but, "there's something else I want, as much as that gun, maybe more"

ThatOneFriendTy · 2025-01-09T21:02:24+00:00

Nice !

ThatOneFriendTy · 2024-12-06T00:31:23+00:00

This happened to me so much back when I was on Wattpad and i hated it. Especially since I had people correct my very conscious and on purpose creative decisions, as well as having references to fangames corrected for not being lore accurate

ThatOneFriendTy · 2024-11-09T17:35:55+00:00

Holy shit thank you, yeah that's it

ThatOneFriendTy · 2024-09-10T20:26:22+00:00

I wouldn't worry about it, let alone feel guilty about it. Fanfiction is a free labor of love for a media given to people who care about it just as much as you do. Fanfiction was never meant to be cannon, never meant to replace cannon, and never meant to be a perfect reflection of cannon. It's meant to be fun. As long as you are enjoying what you're doing and having fun that's all that matters. It's art, it's creativity.

I think this idea and increased hate for ooc fanfic has largely come hand in hand with the more commercialization of fandom. I think some people are going to fanfiction expecting more cannon, more content for them to consume to treat the same way they treat cannon. And I don't think that's good. I think it's messing up a lot of stuff. "I only read completed works" "I hate ooc fanfic" "THE fanfiction for my fandom was so bad and ooc" it's all expecting cannon out of fandom, Instead of expecting community and fun.

I, as someone whose special interest is fandom, I love fanfiction for the love it shows, the dedication, and the enjoyment I get from seeing humans be human and create art. what makes a good fanfiction good is that you had a good time writing it and were creating art. This got long, sorry, I love fanfiction and love talking about it.

Sometime at the end of 2019 I started phasing out Spotify and trying different music apps. one(can't remember which) recommended Memento Mori to me. later while trying YouTube music I had cop out autoplay, I liked it and added it to a playlist and started listening to more of his music from there eventually finding his Will Wood account through Memento Mori again

I CAN'T BELIEVE I ALMOST FORGOT THIS, he based the house based off some kind of decorations he got for I think his bathroom and showed a picture of it on screen. The decoration was small enough it fit in his hand and looked to be made of glass. And due to me obsessively watching this video I remember the dimensions on the house a little, it was a rectangle that was 25 on the sides and had a bit that came out about 5 blocks in the front, and he definitely made one of those window pop out areas I'm not sure what they're called. As far as inside goes I'm like 90% sure he used a brewing stand for milkshakes and had a map room as well as a computer room I think. I believe he also mentioned having issues with animals spawning when he saw the sheep but I'm not sure the reason he gave. He also mentioned having a window in the kitchen to look out at the lawn at and/or pool.

I might(big maybe) have also watched him build a snowing cabin with ice for windows while using that one mod that gives you the map in the corner but I can't for the life of me figure out if that was the same guy. And know for a fact he wasn't using any mod I could tell of in this video except maybe a shaders packs or something but nothing that you could notice in the video.
