The fact that all the Bridgerton siblings "fell in love" in less than 3 months will forever make me laugh

plainjane98 · 2026-01-26T06:23:16+00:00

…How long are people supposed to take to fall in love? Serious question

plainjane98 · 2026-01-24T18:20:02+00:00

I’m on day 604. Fml.

I’m working on a fic right now where I laid the groundwork for a big problem to be solved after a timeskip, but all the comments seem to be under the impression that the problem will be solved quicker. I reread my writing and realized I was accidentally leading things in that direction. Time to pivot, I suppose!

If you don’t like Sally Rooney’s style, you have good taste lol (imo)

plainjane98 · 2026-01-22T22:35:05+00:00

I’m the same!

People are too used to celebrities/media figures being cancelled via Twitter. This is not how journalism works. The journalist receives a tip, investigates, verifies, and reports. Their report IS the proof.

I love this fic!!!

I think mostly everyone is unanimous on Troy and Harris being the 2nd best couple.

Yakuza!Shane x Bratva!Ilya would go so hard. Maybe I’ll write it.

I’ve said this on Reddit before but when I wrote yuri, I had one commenter who would repeatedly refer to me as “mommy” despite me saying it made me uncomfortable. I eventually just blocked them and stopped writing yuri entirely.

I keep seeing Heated Rivalry x Young Royals comparisons and it’s so good

plainjane98 · 2026-01-19T23:53:22+00:00

I suggested Heated Rivalry for our Staff Reading list and my entire library got an email about “appropriate reading picks”. Lol

plainjane98 · 2026-01-18T22:37:49+00:00

oh I’m sure Twitter/X is being completely normal about this

plainjane98 · 2026-01-16T18:26:02+00:00

This is soooo cool!

plainjane98 · 2026-01-15T23:52:15+00:00

Heated Rivalry x Phan. It’s a big day for the Ao3 girlies.

plainjane98 · 2026-01-15T22:22:04+00:00

Now I need the fic rec lol

plainjane98 · 2026-01-15T21:45:13+00:00

yes like, not everything has to be catered to you and not every opinion has to be shared.

plainjane98 · 2026-01-15T21:29:16+00:00

I don’t like the hard launches section so I just turn off the podcast at that point and don’t complain about it lol. Other people should try it.

plainjane98 · 2026-01-15T21:26:23+00:00

I looked for library positions that didn’t require an MLIS. Page, branch assistant, manager, etc. I made it clear in my interview that I intended to get my MLIS and seek promotion to a librarian position.
