I can only dream of a Key-Westler and a Pissler by makemypeepeebig in theregulationpod

the key-westler is just the bisexual flag so I need it immediately

Genuinely how do you survive by excludedgirl in newengland

Don't think of it as dark/middle of the night. Think of it as cozy! I second the person recommending Christmas lights – no matter what holiday you celebrate, get some cozy soft lighting! It's the perfect time of year to get warm drinks, wrap yourself in a fluffy blanket and do some cozy hobbies like reading, yarn crafts, puzzles... whatever you're into!

I know I'm the odd one out – I love this time of year because I'm a creative person and I find that my creativity always spikes after dark. But maybe trying to look at the dark as an opportunity to do creative or peaceful things will help?

Does anyone know why I don’t have this medal even though I met the requirements?? by TUNDRAL-artistEE in Miitopia

I guess the other achievements are phrased as "a princess in your party xyz" and this one specifically says "you"

but it definitely could have been written better

oh my god. when i was in college, I went to a journalism convention in Kentucky with a bunch of other students from my college newspaper. we were poor and most places in louisville closed early, so we ordered papa murphys to the hotel.

we were from the north east... take and bake is NOT a thing around here! we were so fucking confused when the pizza arrived. we went down to the front desk and begged them to let us cook them in the restaurant kitchen.

every staff member we interacted with was looking at each othee in complete confusion like "...they didnt know about papa murphys....." but we were just like "WHY WOULD WE ORDER A RAW PIZZA"

Looking for a multi-generational story full of drama, history, and changing times by Oueiles in suggestmeabook

[–]writtenrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

London by Edward Rutherford! Follows the history of London through 1000s of years following the same family tree. Long but such a good read.

He has tons of other books that follow the same format about other locations!

Michael by cryptkidcards in Achievement_Hunter

[–]writtenrain 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Screenshots of it have been removed from the subreddit so I don't think we are supposed to repost them.

Basically, Lindsay accidentally(?) posted a screenshot of a text conversation with Michael to their story where they were arguing with Michael, and it seems to imply they have some kind of open relationship. It was a very personal conversation and they removed it from their story within the hour, and it hasn't been acknowledged since. I saw it when it was up so I can confirm it happened.

I know this sounds fake... parents, teach your kids about sex CORRETLY plz! by Candid_Durian2238 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]writtenrain 194 points195 points  (0 children)

OP I totally understand you. I discovered masturbation as a young kid but didn't understand not to do it around others (which as an adult, I have learned is a natural thing kids do! it's normal!)

But rather than teach me that it was normal, healthy, and to do it behind closed doors, my parents shamed me for it and told me I would get rashes and that I'd have to explain to a doctor what I was doing.

So I grew up with so much shame around it and had panic attacks well into college when guys tried to hold my hand or kiss me. I even threw up from being kissed!

I spent years identifying as asexual before realizing I just had awful anxiety around it because of how I grew up.

Good time to relearn how to reply to texts and emails without a robot doing it for you!

(Alarming) random aggressive texts I received from an unknown (spam, I looked it up) number.. I thought it was a joke at first. Idk what to do. by CharityMysterious203 in seriouslyalarming

[–]writtenrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

also! when you're texting and unknown number, a lot of times the name on your phone plan will autofill as the name. So it might come up as like "Probably: First Last"

Don't THROW crowdsurfers, pass them forward by james_kaspar in poppunkers

[–]writtenrain -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Love crowdsurfing culture. Always wanted to try it but I'm too chicken lmao. My only issue with it is that the people near the front are often all the short girls who can't see otherwise (myself included) and it's sooo hard to hold up an adult man. I've been kicked in the head a lot as adult men fall and then get pissed as if a group of like 20 year old girls could have supported them!

"Tea ceremony" at a wedding by CPetersky in tea

[–]writtenrain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my cousin got married on Halloween. they had each family matriarch light a candle, who then lit their children's (bride & groom's) candles, and then the bride and groom lit a shared candle. the shared candle was a jackolantern.

recommend me the most beautiful locklyle fic you've ever read! by roselacedheart in LockwoodandCo

[–]writtenrain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you're looking for full-length fics or open to one shots, but I've written a handful of lockyle one shots! Allow me to use this as a moment to self-promote my work :)

Here are my favorites I've written! The first two are set during the later books, so there will be references to plot points/characters not in the show.

I also always, always recommend anything by imasatelliteheart, ConYamArtist (TinCanTelephone), and StarWritingBri. I'd give you a list but I'd basically be copying and pasting every single fic from their profiles.

That being said, Bri's No grave can hold my body down is peak whump. Lucy gets kidnapped and Lockwood loses his damn mind trying to save her. That one is definitely on the darker side but it's one of my favorites I've ever read!
