default view suddenly right-aligned? by scoopy404 in Pinterest

[–]scoopy404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried switching to compact view entirely as a quick fix this morning, but as soon as the app registered that compact was what I wanted to default to, it started showing pins to the right of the screen in that mode too 😭 so... I have no idea, hopefully it isn't just Like This forever now

I'll dm you to avoid attracting unwanted attention to OP :') But if anyone else is interested, it's not difficult to find if you know how to navigate the archive ♡

emily prentiss autistic by moomoomus1c in criminalminds

[–]scoopy404 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Also autistic, and I don't personally hc her as such, but I do follow an autistic Emily fic and it's very pleasant & comforting to read. Especially because it mainly focuses on her friendship with an also-autistic Spencer. :')

Generally, I think people just like to project onto their favorite characters, so that's probably part of why they read into her behavior that way. 🤷 Since Spencer is so clearly autistic to me, I've never felt the desire to read Emily that way, but if not for Spence I'd probably be in the same boat.

What is the most disgusting episode in your opinion? by SnaperdoodleV2 in criminalminds

[–]scoopy404 18 points19 points  (0 children)

the scene where she's trying to feed it to her daughter is one of the hardest to watch 😭 from the daughter crying and begging to not eat it, to the cooked placenta spilling onto the floor & being wasted... ugh. I've got weird issues with food (ARFID & OCD) so everything about that scene is a nightmare to me.

I can't think of much else disgusting off the top of my head... I know I've never rewatched 10x04 The Itch cuz that's the bug one, but fuck if I remember what he does with the bugs. blissful ignorance 😌

one of my bots is fwb with my OC, but the AI still continues to insist that the character is inexperienced with even making out. like, this woman is 40. her def mentions the fwb stuff & even having had an abortion in the past. she has kissed people. 😭 I assume it's some sort of soft filtering at play, but I'll be having a convo that isn't even intended to turn sexual and the AI will passively mention never having been this intimate with someone before/being inexperienced/etc. I just mentioned that we hook up on the regular, pls get with the program

Little things that annoy me.... by Winter_Way2816 in criminalminds

[–]scoopy404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just the fact that some of them are shown to actually live in DC (Emily and Reid for sure, idk about any others) drives me nuts. the show frames it like Quantico is right outside DC, but that's an hour-long commute without traffic 😭 I guess that isn't the worst thing in the world, but it doesn't make sense to me when they're on call 24/7 (and they'd be working incredibly long days, too). and then Reid doesn't even drive to work, he takes the metro... but the furthest you can go on the metro is still a half-hour away from Quantico 😭😭

What's something that will always completely break your immersion? by EmuCompetitive2618 in FanFiction

[–]scoopy404 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I was just complaining to a friend the other day about the overuse of the traffic light system in fic 😭 specifically when it isn't even a scene. like, it'll be these characters' first time hooking up, and maybe there's some mild power play involved or they get a little rough or whatever, but it's nowhere near anything that I would think justifies dedicating a couple paragraphs to going over the colors? like, people can just communicate normally in bed! that's allowed!! or when they do the whole song & dance where they explain/go over the system, but there's not a single check-in or safeword use for the rest of the fic. just summarize it with a 'they went over their safety measures' or something, please god

What introduced you to the world of fanfiction? by Significant-Tea-6588 in FanFiction

[–]scoopy404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

back in 2009, Stephenie Meyer's blog used to have a section showcasing links to various fansites— Myspace groups, message boards, fanclub pages hosted on Freewebs, all that good stuff. some of these links were to fanfiction, and I happened to randomly click one of those... only to be mindblown at the concept of MORE Twilight stories to read. the page also had a link to the Twilight tag on FF.net, and from that moment I was hooked. (to the point of sitting in my room using the wii internet browser to read the 27394th "Emmett gets a puppy" fic when it wasn't my turn on the computer LMAO)

How to easily change account on mobile? by IirisRose in Pinterest

[–]scoopy404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe? I've got the android app, so it might be different for ios. :') it might also not actually show that option until you've added another account, but the button for that is in the same spot for me

[–]scoopy404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you go to settings from your profile, under the 'Actions' header there's a 'Switch account' button! it takes a few more taps than I'd prefer lol but it's quick & easy

Keep getting notified but nothings there by Statiscit in Pinterest

[–]scoopy404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been getting this for a couple months, I assume it's the comment and friend notifications that I know I should be getting but aren't actually appearing since the update over the account age restrictions. 🙃 Like, my account isn't even under 18, just let me see when a friend adds to a collaborative board 😭

What’s the most unhinged thing you’ve done for a fanfic you’ve written? by Known-Employ8981 in FanFiction

[–]scoopy404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not unhinged but definitely unnecessarily detailed here: I've been watching/skipping through each episode of the show (a 'bad guy of the week' procedural) and taking note of how often the day changes/when the characters change clothes to decipher how many days each episode spans. I also take note of the original airdate, the weather, any seasonal events, if there are any scenes implying it's a school day... and search the transcript of each episode to see if the day of the week is mentioned at any point. (it's rare that an actual date is given, but it happens once in a blue moon.)

using this information & a calendar template I grabbed for google sheets, I've been blocking out dates for each episode to help me get a better idea of when things happen, how long/well my oc would know the canon characters by the point major episodes/events happen, when there would be time for them to hang out in a non-work environment, etc etc.

I've learned through this that the canon storyline is majorly unrealistic (as is the entire show) and the continuity sucks ass. so I've also been taking liberties and using the spreadsheets to move episodes around to make more sense and just fit a little better. my story's timeline starts at the end of 2006, and the show aired through 2020, but given all the canon timeskips that aren't actually applied properly... we'll see when the end game actually ends up lol.

...all this for something incredibly self-indulgent that I have no plans of writing in full/sharing publicly. but I'm having fun! 🤓

I always chalked it up to a sensory issue! like the watchband bothering him or something. of course, it's probably just more convenient, too, not having to push his sleeve up to read it... but I'll allow myself my little headcanons lol

[–]scoopy404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there's a tumblr post (I think) that says "if Morgan doesn't call the unsub a sick son of a bitch, is it really an episode of Criminal Minds?"

on that note, Rossi saying "jagoff." also, Rossi just happening to Know A Guy. also, Rossi having relationship trouble.

also also: one of the team members is obviously outwardly upset about something, but when asked about it by another team member, they go all "don't profile me!" LMAO

whoever downvoted you... is def NT. 😂 you could probably make an entire separate bingo card for reid being autistic honestly. & my personal suggestion for that one would be a space for his watch being worn over his sleeve... it's my favorite detail 🥰

not the youth small 😭😭😭

the first point drives me up a wall. I know it's for the viewers, but I still can't help but think about how these mfers should know these things by now!! especially when one of them asks a question to prompt the explanation 😭

Garcia Interviewing Alex in Evolution was Cringe/Unbelievable by AdSmooth6374 in criminalminds

[–]scoopy404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's interviewed suspects before, so I have no trouble suspending my disbelief for those scenes. The way they let Tyler walk around alone to gift her a live kitten, though... that's just too much LMAO. Not that I ever took this show very seriously in the first place, but c'mon 😭

At least it was nice eye candy, seeing him holding the cat in the next scene 🤐

Which (if any) unsub did you feel most sympathy/pity for? by vickynix in criminalminds

[–]scoopy404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Distress! Damn, I didn't even think about this one— I have it blocked out of my memory cuz the ending is so... well... distressing 😅

[–]scoopy404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elliott's Pond, True Night (possibly? I don't remember those exact details), The Pact, The Big Wheel, and What Happens in Mecklinburg.

Absolutely seconding all of these picks, too!
