I think one of the best examples of what went wrong with TSATS is from the book tour I attended -
At one point during the event, Mark Oshiro made a comment about Nico's card collection. Specifically, they joked that Nico collecting cards was a sign that he was gay, because clearly he was only collecting the cards to look at the men on the art (which ends up being a note made in the actual book itself).
I've said a lot that you cannot divorce PJO from neurodivergence and disability. You just can't. And I stand by that. If you remove the neurodivergence and disability aspects from PJO it is no longer PJO because that's the foundation the entire series is built upon - representing neurodiverse and disabled students and kids. If you do not understand that or try to ignore it you have missed the most fundamental aspect of PJO as a series and everything else falls apart. (This is actually a trend that begins occurring mid/late-HoO and throughout TOA and that's where I say the main series begins to feel like it's no longer itself, but that's a rant for another day.)
You cannot divorce any of the demigod PJO characters from being ADHD/dyslexic. It is a core part of their characters. You cannot separate Nico di Angelo from the fact that he is ADHD/dyslexic. If you agree with Nico being autistic-coded or not, he is explicitly ADHD, and MythoMagic as we're introduced to it with him is clearly his hyperfixation if not his special interest. It just is. MythoMagic with Nico is the main ADHD/autistic trait we see presented with him. You cannot erase that. You cannot say "Nico only collected cards because he's gay" because then you are removing the fact that Nico is ADHD and you have missed the entire point of the series. Failed step 1.
TSATS does things like this so often throughout the book. (Ex: None of the characters stim, ever. The closest we get is Will bouncing his leg in one scene, but that's heavily implied to purely be him feeling anxious in that moment and nothing else. Nico even gives up his most iconic stim object and it's replaced with a coin he explicitly never stims with. He only ever touches it, never stims with it.) The book refuses to acknowledge that Nico and Will (and Annabeth and Percy and Piper and etc etc etc) are ADHD and dyslexic (and autistic-coded, in Nico's case). And if it does even remotely acknowledge those themes, it does so in the most ableist ways possible (infantilizing Nico, blaming Nico for his own ostracization, magically healing all of Nico's problems, implying Percy is only bad at school because he's disinterested and lazy, etc). And that happens because they started on the wrong foundation. They treated the characters' neurodivergence and disabilities as secondary and optional rather than the literal foundations the entire series was built upon and it shows.

hey btw y’all, just wanna let y’all know that the most heart melting, almost made me cry, in-the-running-for-favorite moment of the season has 100% been the immediate “i give her the help action” to lydia barkrock with absolutely zero hesitation from kristen

I would also like to see some miphlink, if that's okay!
Tumblr media
I was really struggling with what to draw, and then I remembered your ask from ages ago (dang ADHD brain...) anyway, sorry its such a late answer, but Miphlink inspired by Dicksee's La Belle Dame
#thank you so so much for the ask stars!! I had completely forgotten about it (I'm so so sorry!!) and it saved me from an artist-not-arting#you know the sort of pent up unpleasant feeling you get when you need to do something creative but its not happening and then its sad?#yeah I didn't get that because your ask suddenly popped into my head! so very happy about that :) thank you!#link is a horse girl and we need more of it in life#also to try and get the flowy fabric look that Dicksee's La Belle Dame has without putting Link in a dress I decided to modify Mipha's fins#and then added some of that gorgeous salmon colour from the original piece#also the reason the reason the champions tunic etc have that grey tinge to it is because the knight was wearing armour in the original piec#with a beautiful duckegg blue grey colour and I thought including that might be fun too!#anyway#the couple that is perfect for one another and should always be together for all time: Mipha and Link#mipha#link#botw#creativesplat draws#breath of the wild#miphlink#lipha#I really need to catch up on the miphlink tag... its so exciting to have so much wonderful art and writing to look through but I am a rathe#busy/ adhd forgetful bean so whenever I get round to reading or looking at art... there will be a long reblog/ queue of miphlink stuff!#eventually#at some point#because fashionably late (coughjustlatecough) is my middle name!#enough rambling sorry#I love drawing miphlink its like a comfort drawing thing#like her head is so squidgy and so easy to doodle so if ever my brain is bored or I want to draw and need happy hormones but can't find the#mipha is the answer because the squishy head is just sooooo good#the designers of mipha were amazing and I love them#epona#tloz#zelda

Do you know this (noncanon) ADHD character?
Tumblr media
Evidence below the cut!
Evidence: He exhibits ADHD traits, he acts without thinking a lot, like spontaneously “WE SHOULD BLOW THIS BUILDING UP”, he also fidgets a lot and cannot sit still! “Agent Curt Mega has ADHD” is a tag on ao3 for saf fics
Additional note from mod: Under Personality section on the wiki page for this media, it says "He is shown to be brash, dramatic, and often not the smartest, often making inadvisable decisions to the detriment of himself and those around him. He is often seen upping danger without reason and making situations more complicated then necessary." which sounds like a pretty typical part of ADHD coding to me. (I often see characters who are clearly ADHD coded have their impulsiveness interpreted as unintelligence...)

Scar is like a chaotic big brother whenever he’s regressed around other littles
I feel like he's the type to just lie about things. A littler Hermit asks why clouds go through tall builds, and he tells them it's because clouds are the ghosts of all the mobs they slay coming to eavesdrop on them. That sort of thing.

Hello!! Not really a question — I just wanted to say I'm in awe of how disciplined you are with your writing and how much you're able to write in a given month. It's HUGELY motivational to see your excerpts and schedules and updates (but I'm happy you're also taking some time this month to rest!)
Hope you have a nice day!
Hi hi anon!
Thank you so much <3 Some of it is definitely discipline, but honestly, I feel like I'm very fortunate because I do just enjoy writing?
Like, it's the thing I want to do when I'm stressed. I want to do it when I'm meant to be not doing it (like holidays). I want to do it most of the time, so I'm very rarely forcing myself. It's comforting to me.
It's still very hard sometimes and there's parts that aren't comforting, like I put off editing a LOT! (My wordcounts are also my editing, and that takes longer sometimes than writing the initial chapter, and definitely takes longer once I send to beta, because she responds live and that's the way we've always done it so I can interact reflexively and change things as we go).
But anyway, I do enjoy writing!
The other thing that has helped re: the actual schedule (because I didn't have one for most of the time I've done serials here and on AO3!) is finally getting an ADHD diagnosis and getting onto Vyvanse, which gave me like 15% more executive function, and that's just enough for me to start writing a few chapters ahead, which has given me more freedom than I've have in 10 years.
It's also why if anyone tells me that ADHD is a superpower, I will punch them in the face, lol.
Anyway! I'm selfish, it's fun for me to post updates, it's fun for me to post excerpts, it's fun for me to share this way with you all! I think if I forced myself to do it the 'Right Way' as a novelist that wrote and published finished books I would have burned out on that caree- oh wait I did burn out on that lol

Unfriendly Reminder that self-deprecating humor is insufferable & making your poor mental health a personality trait instead of working to improve is not cute! You’re not “coping” you’re being a clown! Grow up, disrespectfully!

fellas, fellas
I recognize the English grammar rule stating that a u and an e need to follow a q for a bunch of different q words,
BUT QUEUE?! WTF!
why was this deemed an acceptable thing to do?
I know it’s pronounced like cue is, but every time I see queue, my brain immediately thinks: que-you.
Like what?
Was the automatic u-e after the q not enough?

So a couple months ago I started amassing a big queue worth of posts. I slowed down when it was getting towards the start of S2 so that I could have a fresh canvas upon which I could vomit all of my thoughts about the new season.
But that means I've long since forgotten what was in there and I'm not going to look, because every day is a new surprise. I have almost impulsively reblogged something I posted because I didn't recognize that I wrote it or queued it. We're out in the weeds of queued posts.
Fascinating.
