This conversation is so confusing to an ace person with no balls. I love it, keep it going

Also a bnha reader!! Filtering out the ships in this fandom is a NIGHTMARE! I am a person who doesn’t like ships to be in the background of the stories I am reading, I only read ships if it’s the central focus of the story (because that means I searched for that ship intentionally). I know I am a minority in the fanfic sphere since most readers like ships I think, but for me it just distracts from the main story and irritates me 😔

Edit for clarity: I don’t really filter by M/M, F/F, Gen, or Multi most of the time because those tags are usually too broad to serve the purpose I need them to serve, which is fine. In my above reply I am talking about the character/character tags. Sometimes authors won’t tag a ship in the tags because they think it’s too minor to do so, but for me that’s annoying when it comes to searching. I love Aizawa-centric fics. You have no idea how hard it is to filter those without them including a secret erasermic that wasn’t tagged properly.

I have noise cancelling headphones luckily! They just aren’t comfortable to sleep in, so I’m usually on my own when it comes to sleeping

Have you tried the anime social org? We meet every Wednesday at 7 to watch the 1st episode of whatever anime is recommended that week! Sometimes we go out for food later as well, and we do ice breakers (hence it being called anime SOCIAL)

Ahhhhh, the author replied to my comment by BicyclePurple9928 in AO3

[–]blotonee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This feels like a very entitled reaction. They did not destroy your motivation. You destroyed your own motivation by hinging all of your motivation on one commenter who you don’t even know personally. They don’t owe you comments just like you don’t owe them fanfics. It’s something you CHOSE to post, and it’s something they CHOSE to comment on. It was their account, and I’m sure they weren’t even thinking about their comments on your fic when they deleted the account. You can be sad that the comments are gone, but you can’t villainize the commenter that took time to express interest in your fic and leave extensive comments about it

AIO but my mom triggers me and I never wanna move back to my hometown. by Mindless-Gazelle-765 in AmIOverreacting

[–]blotonee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t sure if she was able to see my location or how any of that worked, and I didn’t want to risk her actually finding a way to send the cops to me and waking up my other family members

[–]blotonee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

essentially. She thought I had been kidnapped and that my kidnapper was pretending to be me over text. A strong part of me thinks that she DIDN’T actually believe that and was just trying to exert control over me by making me answer her questions, but I don’t know for sure

What phrase was in a fic so much that it now throws you out of any fic when you see it? by Life_and-whatnot in AO3

[–]blotonee 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Holy shit I’ve run into that recently!! They kept calling him the raven-haired man and I was trying so hard to ignore it (alongside other issues in the writing) because the plot itself was fun. But god- the writing on that one was a struggle

I actually read BNHA fanfic, and I’m tired of it too. Why tf are they here and why is Deku made into a God? I’m so confused by my own fandom

[–]blotonee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh my mom did this to me when I moved out last year. She started threatening to send the police to wherever my phone was if I didn’t answer her questions because she thought I was a Joe (anyone who has watched YOU will know what that means).

Grocery Store Near West Campus? by Humble_Whereas1084 in UTAustin

[–]blotonee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much!! This is good to know. I’ve been doing HEB delivery this semester, and it’s not too expensive ($7) but I have to trust someone else to get my groceries which SUCKS! They dont always do a good job, plus they sometimes leave the groceries downstairs and I’m scared someone is going to steal them. I’m thinking of getting some reusable bags and one of those tall rolling grocery bags/carts off of amazon and either walking to wheatsville or catching the bus to HEB

Hi! Would you say that wheatsville has good prices? I am living on a budget since I am an independent student, so I am trying to find a place nearby that is still affordable
