being a hater is good and fun and comes free with being a lover but it's also good to practice being an idgafer. sometimes things are just meant to bait you and/or not worth blowing up your whole day over. don't forget that.
I’ve told her not to get her hopes up. “After all,” I say, “we’re only going to celebrate it for half a minute” when she asked what in the world I was talking about, I pointed out “This is your thirty-second birthday”
I am a solo indie dev trying to overcome my anxiety and actually let people know my game exists. It is a cute physics based game where you are the level.
Let us not forget the fact that had our current 2024 language been present in 2010-2016, a LOT of the stuff we used to consume via TV and Youtube would be considered "cringe" by our current standards.
The only change that happened is that we got older, and they will too.
The 'the newer generation bad!!' jokes died a long time ago, why is gen z pissing on gen alpha? 'Oh they're cringe!!!' they're kids, don't act like you wouldn't be seen as an absolute cringe lord in your childhood as well. Isn't gen z supposed to be the cycle breaking generation? Explain to me why we're doing the same shit older generations do to us, then. Childhood is supposed to be fun, and if alpha does skibidi toilet role plays on the playground why do you give a shit? Let kids be cringe, there ain't nothing wrong with it.
those posts criticizing common writing patterns in fanfiction are so fucking harmful and they ruined me
so like yknow what??? People tell you to avoid “smirk” and “chuckle” as descriptors because no one does those things (???) but then when I need to use those words I have a ten minute crisis about how I’m a shitty writer. So heres my unwarranted writing advice: If you want your characters to smirk and chuckle fucking let them and don’t let anyone tell you that no one smirks or chuckles because I do both on a daily basis whenever I tell a shitty pun, bye
It's not cringe anymore (it SHOULDN'T be cringe anymore), just do it. You're doing something you enjoy, who cares what anybody else says! So spread the words my fellow internet brethren.
