joking aside, I love this site. I have learned so much from this site. I have received so much love and support from this site, and I hope to be here for years to come (especially now that we accidentally won Least Worst Social Media Platform, despite our very best efforts)
that being said, taking a break was really helpful for me mentally. it made me realize how much pressure I was putting on myself to keep people entertained so they would like me. I'm talking like, 'rereading & editing a single dumb shitpost a dozen times a day' levels of overthinking.
So yeah: I love it here, I plan to keep making people (and myself) laugh, but going forward I'm going to be putting less pressure on myself to be as entertaining/active as i used to aim for. Less "I choked on my gogurt" levels of humor, more "sensible chuckle." (sometimes I may even indulge in a joke that purposefully fails to resonate with the audience! it will be quite a mischievous little treat for me 🤭.)
anyways please be patient if my posts lack a certain pizzazz going forward. the pizzazz is out of stock. no there is none in the back room. the pizzazz is on back order ok. no I'm not paying for expedited shipping. our supplier is experiencing a shortage. pizzazz is a controlled substance, do you have no understanding of the paperwork involved? piss off with your piddling pizzazz
TLDR if you think my posts were mediocre before just u wait sweetheart you ain't seen nothing yet. (they are going to get worse. what I'm saying is they are going to get even more underwhelming. i feel good about this.)

robin (2021) #5
something i just realized about the “you were my robin” / “we were the best” little moments between dick and damian is that damian’s already fourteen by this point, it’s been so long since they had their batman-and-robin dynamic, but it was still such an important time in their lives!!! they keep bringing it up and i love it!!

Derek would like it noted that he had been in way worse situations before. He would like that on the official record. His current predicament honestly doesn’t even make the top five worst situations he’s ever been in. It might not even make the top ten.
“A random woman walked out of the preserve, handed you a new born baby, told you to find me and for us raise him like he’s our own, and then turned into mist,” Stiles said, voice incredulous. He’d been back in Beacon Hills for less than three months and in that time they’d had a pixie infestation, a clan of vampires without morals, a clan of vampires with morals, and a feral omega, so Derek wasn’t sure why he was acting like a random woman with a baby was all that unbelievable.
“Yes,” Derek said, the baby still in his arms. He didn’t have anything he needed for a baby yet, so he called Stiles over to hopefully lend a hand in getting the baby out of the woods safely.
“And you didn’t think it was suspicious at all?”
“I thought it was a little suspicious,” Derek shrugged as best he could with the tiny baby in his arms. “But he smells right, like he’s -”
“Like he’s?”
Derek sighed because he had started the sentence so now he had to finish it. “Like he’s mine. Like he’s ours .”
"That is actually not comforting to hear,” Stiles flopped down onto the bumper of Derek’s car. “A random woman handed you a baby that smells like ours? Derek, that's like something out of a fairy tale, and not a cute Disney retelling but a Grimm one.”
“Did you bring the car seat?”
“Did I bring the car seat,” Stiles muttered under his breath, standing up and grabbing something from the backseat of the Jeep. Derek felt a flair of pride at how well it was running, even after five years in the Sheriff’s garage while Stiles was away at school and starting his little consulting agency. Derek had taken to taking the Jeep out for a drive every few weeks to make sure everything was still running so when Stiles came home it would be there waiting for him. He'd chosen to not examine it too closely because if he did he was pretty sure he'd have to look his feelings for Stiles in the face and he hadn't been ready for that. “Of course I brought the fucking car seat.”

i think i'd be a really great comedian because they get to tell stories in the style of a person with SEVERE adhd. like i know i can't do this to my dad because he doesn't want me to tell him background info for the lead-up to a story for thirty minutes. but john mulaney get's up on that stage for a full two years and he's like "let me explain this phone call i got from pete davidson a few years ago for a third of an hour while you are all held captive without your cell phones and WATCH" like i could do that
