I fucking love this
Do you know all those posts out here about being supportive of young artists and being careful with how you talk to them about their art? Or just appreciating fanart in general and not being a total asshole?
That doesn’t exist for fanfic writers.
I am so freaking tired of seeing posts talking about “what a pain it is to rake through shitty fanfic” and memes about “shitty fanfic existing in abundance” , “shitty fanfic being the only fics that update regularly”, “popular pairings having a ton of fanfic but only a few good ones”, and all this crappy attitude towards fanfics that may not be that eloquent or fandom famous.
Don’t be an asshole. Everyone needs to start somewhere. Maybe in a few years these writers will improve and make much better fanfic. Even if they don’t, they are doing something they love and should not be freaking criticized for it. Keep your ranting and opinions about “shitty fanfic” to yourself. You’re making a majority of fanfic writers feel self-conscious, unmotivated, and even more unappreciated.
Days like ‘fanfic writer appreciation day’ are super nice, but ultimately fall short unless we fix this horrid attitude fandoms have towards fanfic.
Confidence is a tricky thing. Some people naturally seem to exude confidence, while others struggle to have any. And some of that is just who you are, some are naturally shy, and others are naturally loud. However, there are times when you need confidence. For example, meeting new people, giving a presentation or starting a new job. Confidence can be really useful and helps you to feel calm and assured in a situation where you might normally be panicky and flustered.
I am the first to admit I am not a confident person. It was always me that had trouble putting my hand up in class, leaving the comfort of my mum to actually go to school and talking in a group of people. I was always aware from a young age that I was shy. My Mum would introduce me to someone, I wouldn’t talk, and my Mum would say ‘oh Ash is just shy’. Which made me believe I could never be confident, because shy was my default. But shy people can learn to be confident, so Psych2Go shares with you 5 habits to boost self-confidence.
Instead of staying in the fogginess that is lack of confidence, take stock. Forget thinking you need confidence, instead focus on what is it you want to achieve. Any time you feel a bit wobbly and sense yourself falling into ‘I’m hopeless, I can’t do it’ territory, stop and take a breath. Detach yourself from your emotions and analyse where you are, where you need to be, and what you need to learn. Keep assessing yourself. It’s important to keep everything in perspective. Before you do something that…

In which David and Dalilah spend alone time while their friends party
@/dalilahondemand: ready to party
The party was in full swing, had been for a few hours. I had had 3 solo cups of beer and 2 mixed drinks so I was slightly buzzed. Deciding there was too many people in the house i walked out to the back. A few people were out here but all by the pool so I made my way to the swing chair.
I had been stairing at my drink thinking when someone sat next to me. Looking up I expected Natalie but was met with a smiley David, "hey you okay?" I shrug and lean back, "yeah just too many bodies in there." He laughed lightly nodding, "yeah our parties tend to be a lot." I couldn't help but laugh, "sounds like you have a lot of 'em." The cute guy I've lived with for almost a month shook his head, "nah, not really. Only when we have something to celebrate."
It grew silent for a moment so I decided to speak, "thanks for letting me stay here." His shoulders shrug and a goofy smile is placed on his face, "it's awesome having you around. The group loves you, Natalie's not moody, and your really cool," my cheeks heat up and I smile, "plus the fans love you." I laugh and shake my head, "of course they do, who doesn't?" David laughs and sips his drink making me sip mine. "You should honestly start your own channel. You'd be amazing at it." I shrug and look down, "maybe. We'll see Dobrik." A slow song comes on through the speakers and David sets his cup down, "wanna dance?" I shrug, "why not?" Placing his hands around my waist and to my lower back I place mine around his neck and thread my fingers together as we begin to sway to the song. I close my eyes and lay my head on his chest as the songs plays through. That's the moment I realized I liked David Dobrik.
Little did we know someone got it on video and would put it in their vlog.

Are you a Gold Star lesbian? (Just in case you don't know what it means, a Gold Star lesbian is a lesbian that has never had the sex with a guy and would never have any intentions of ever doing so)
Bi actually, I lean more towards women tho 😜
Nour Ashour, 4 years old, survived death 3 times.
The first time their house was bombed in Gaza City, her mother was martyred and was pulled out from under the rubble.
A week ago, the house she fled to in Khan Yunis was bombed and she sustained injuries to her face.
Yesterday, she was injured in the bombing of the Ashour family’s home with injuries to her head.
Keep demanding a ceasefire. In what world is it normal to bomb a 4 year old three times, killing their family and injuring them? They're enduring trauma that they don't even have the language to process yet.
Request: noneeee
Summary- The group plan to track down the remaining numbers, but Eleven can only find 002. They convince Steve to drive them all the way to her whereabouts, and he’s forced to make a rash decision.
