write for the audience you want, not the one you’re afraid of
write to delight the audience you want and piss off the one you’re afraid of
Write for the audience of yourself and trust that there’s other people out there who are just as weird as you are

No one has made me feel better about my stimming than the restaurant worker who saw me bouncing on my feet while deciding what to order and excitedly said “oh GIRL you have the DANCER SPIRIT!” with the excitement of someone telling me that I was the chosen one of a prophecy

I got a marketing email from hobbycraft to say that they’re now selling plush pumpkins ahead of halloween
so of course I went to the website, which led me to this delightful photo series showing the different sizes available:

Everytime I see posts like this I get filled with such profound sadness
Cause you know who has the same brainrot as you? The same unhinged feelings as you after you’ve read the fic? The person who always wants to scream about the fic with you?
THE PERSON WHO WROTE IT
I never used to leave comments but since I got into the habit of commenting on everything i enjoy it’s been incredible. Especially when the author gets back to me about it and we get to have a discussion of what other ideas they had. One writer replied to my comment with a 5 paragraph essay detailing the Floorplan of the building the characters lived in and it was incredible
Anyways this is all to say that if you find a fic that just makes you want to scream from the rooftops, leave a comment saying that to the author and maybe they will join you and you can scream incoherently together

Are you frustrated you can’t leave second kudos on AO3? or third kudos? or whatever-who’s-counting kudos?
Well, have I got the html for you!
Plop any of these in a comment (by copy&pasting the code) to make an author’s day and show your appreciation!
Second kudos:
<img src=“https://i.ibb.co/tHMjbb6/second-kudos.png” alt=“second kudos”>
Third kudos:
<img src=“https://i.ibb.co/52bggQH/third-kudos.png” alt=“third kudos”>
nth kudos:
<img src=“https://i.ibb.co/6y7qGtC/nth-kudos.png” alt=“nth kudos”>
yet another kudos:
<img src=“https://i.ibb.co/wKtcj0s/yet-another-kudos.png” alt=“yet another kudos”>
It will look something like this (and will be transparent with white outline on dark backgrounds):
Feel free to spread and use these as much as you like! (and if you have ideas for other variations, let me know ✌️)
