This might just be my new favorite post on this app

Okay, we all want more Klaus/Dave, but what a brilliant fucking way to write a relationship that embeds itself into your mind in just a handful of minutes.

Because you only every really see the relationship through the lens of how its loss destroys Klaus. We get to see a few flashbacks of good moments between them, but the majority of time we spend with the Klaus/Dave relationship is in the moments when Klaus is just pinning for what he lost. They took a guy who’s been doing drugs since his teens and made him say “I’ll stop for him”. They took a man who generally tries to turn everything into a joke or a snarky comment and made him ball up in the fetal position in the middle of the sidewalk in tears and agony. They took a guy who usually avoids confrontations and made him take on a bar full of veterans just for trying to get between him and a picture of Dave.

That is top notch writing to use the loss of a relationship you never really saw much of to impress just how real the relationship was, all by focusing on how you saw Klaus transformed by the loss of it.

Good shit

baby yoda’s first christmas  🎄

I made a thing, I thought Ben should get one too. P.S I know Justin is not in costume but it was the best I could do. I did orange because we have all the colors in the rainbow except orange with the other siblings.

I was today years old. That is disgusting.

No Child Left Behind is one of the worst things to ever be incentivized in schools. It was signed into law when I was 14. Reading Rainbow was my show as a kid. LeVar Burton played a big part in why I became an avid reader to date. The joy of it. It's an adventure around the globe and through different time periods without stepping on a plane or time machine.

Children parrot behavior. In grade school, I always wanted to read the same amount of books as my teachers (50 books) and managed to double that each year. Before No Child Left Behind, book fairs and Scholastic catalogs were a serious matter like your grandma's Fingerhut catalogs. Libraries were (and still are) a wonderland.

Reading comprehension and proficiency in schools has been declining for decades. A crisis. The joy of books isn't pushed anymore and I'm always saddened by it. It's one of the reasons why I post my book reviews and recommendations on here, as well as posts from others to encourage reading and (novel) writing. Kids will parrot your behavior while the education system sadly fails to return as that example.

I live like 30 minutes away!! I’m going to church y’all

I wish each individual chapter of a fic on AO3 had the date when it was posted, rather than just when the fic was first posted and when the last update was.  

That way you can see at a glance how often a WIP is updated, whether it’s fairly regularly or with huge long gaps between chapters; or if the first 20 chapters were posted in quick succession but the most recent couple were posted at long intervals, indicating that the writer is losing interest and may not finish, etc.  

I’m fucking dying this is fantastic

there are at present three whole star wars aus in the bnha ao3 tag which, you can feel the canon radiating disappointment, but the only bnha star wars au i can think of it uhhhh kchkchckhckhc mandalorian au where aizawa is the mandalorian and the role of baby yoda is played by midoriya
