Me Rn Except I Swear I Have The Doc Open And I Swear Im Going To Work On It

JPC in Omaha yesterday singing Great Expectations!

in doing fine guys!! (ao3 is down and im losing it.)

The more references I look up of the Curtis house the more confused I am. I think Pony and sodas room has two doors, one to the kitchen and another the hall/ living room. Don’t even get me started on the complex mix of space that is the living room and dining room.

Been looking at movie photos and museum photos for help but at this point I need them to drop like the original floorplan.

happy pride month guys

writing reminders

it's ok to write only for yourself

it's ok to not share your writing with the world

it's ok to want validation

it's ok to write self-indulgent stories

it's ok to write only one genre

it's ok to share your writing regardless of your skill

it's ok to praise your own writing

it's ok to abandon wips

it's ok if you don't write every day

it's ok if you write fanfiction (because people who claim it isn't real writing is wrong)

it's ok to use clichés

it's ok to have a bad day of writing

it's ok to be a slow writer

it's normal to have days in which you doubt the things you write, that doesn't mean you're a bad writer

it's ok to ask for feedback

it's ok to cringe at your old writing

it's ok to hype up your writing online

it's ok to celebrate your achievements

it kills me how silly jpc is irl and then he just breaks ur heart as soda and has the voice of an angel like oh ok

I love multishipping like yes Sodapop Curtis is in love with Steve but he’s also in love with Chet, and Sandy, and also Cherry, what about it

I suddenly feel compelled to talk more about this (ty @qprpbj for this)

the CURTIS gang is only the curtis gang bc it’s sodapop CURTIS’ gang. It’s not Darry’s, because Darry isn’t in the gang. Sure he goes to rumbles, and hangs out with all of them but part of that is because 1. It’s his brothers friends and 2. he’s a greaser, what else can he do? It’s stated in the book and confirmed by S.E Hinton that Darry isn’t in the gang at all, nor does he want to be. He didn’t “go soc” in highschool, he just hung out with socs. Even if he was a greaser, he didn’t wear that title with pride. Soda fully embraced the title, wore it right next to his heart on his sleeve. I would bet money that the gang wasn’t even like, a thing until Soda kinda looked around at his friends and went huh. we’re kind of like a gang. and everyone ran with it. It’s also Soda’s gang because everything circles back to the kid. For example, I don’t think Steve would’ve voluntarily hung out with the rest of the group had it not been for Soda. Neither would Ponyboy. I also like to think that everyone met Johnny through Soda, even if it’s Ponyboy he’s closest with. I just have a feeling they were in the same class along with Steve. Not entirely sure how Dally got there, but it was probably Soda. Soda honestly could’ve just seen a kid his age chilling by himself and invited him over for dinner bc his mom makes GREAT spaghetti. Two-bit was just a neighbourhood kid Darry used to hang out with until high-school, where he got different friends and such, but Two-bit was still around and ended up mixed in with the group, not that he’s complaining. I don’t think they ever made themselves known as a gang but that’s how others saw them anyways. “it’s the curtis gang” “who’s gonna be at the rumble?” “the curtis gang” “that kids from the curtis gang.”

idk if this makes any sense but thank you for coming to my ted talk.

I know there have been many of these posts already but guys, please don't ask AIs to write fanfiction for you or finish a fanfic for you.

I've seen posts where people have been desperate to read fanfic to the point that they've asked ChatGPT to write them some fanfic.

I am making this post to gently remind people that there are fanfic writers who take fanfic requests. There are fanfic writers who have probably already written what you are looking for.

So please, instead of supporting AI and robots writing fanfiction, support the humans who write and create things for you to enjoy. And let them know you enjoy it. Positive feedback can be really motivating for writers.
