It can be anything…a fanfic, a headcanon, a personal fantasy, an original story, smut, whatever. Just reblog if you think up some kind of fiction to yourself to help you fall asleep.
I always thought it was just me, until I started talking to other fanwriters…also, those are often the most self-indulgent stories, that I wouldn’t necessarily share publicly…
Yup. Sometimes something that will turn into a fic, sometimes not.

anyone else get a fuzzy-restless feeling when you need to do something but your brain won’t focus on anything and you’re silently begging yourself to just do one thing but instead you’re scrolling tumblr even though you don’t even want to be … it’s like your head is filled with heavy electric cotton like you’re both uncomfy and unable to stop
do older generations not get fatalistic humor?? like the other day my friend’s parents were hanging around and we were joking and i was like “well no matter what i can always fling myself off the nearest cliff” and they didn’t laugh then later the mom pulled me aside and was like “maybe you should get some help, sweetie” like stfu?? help? in this economy? i don’t think so, debra
I honestly don’t think they get it as a coping mechanism, they think it’s a cry for help rather than actually helping.
i’d even say it’s past just coping and is also now a category of Stuff Kids Got Used To When No One Was Looking; not everyone using that humor is even covering up something bigger, we just stopped thinking fatalistic = taboo/unspeakable somewhere along the line, and most parents don’t seem to know why or how ~
My boss opened a door and missed me by inches, he said “whoops, almost killed you there!” My result of “Oh, if only.” Led to an awkward end of shift debrief.
This generation shares the same humor as the goddamn Addams Family and the previous generation is the White Sixties Family™ that lives next door and runs away screaming at the end of the episode
adhd friendships: a summary
-“Sorry I didn’t answer I spaced out”
-*randomly switching topics mid conversation*
-“I know this is unrelated, but”
-”I’m feeling horrible” *five minutes later* “uh nevermind that”
– “When did we start talking?” “I don’t remember”
– *both infodump to each other*
– more typos than any human being is able to handle
– when you get really excited and you stay up until 7 am taking about random shit
– accidental derailing the conversation over and over
-”have i already told you this i can’t remember” “don’t worry i can’t either”
So my brother, Liam, and I were watching Megamind last night.
After the beginning part, my brother pauses the movie and says to me:
“This movie isn’t about a bad guy changing and becoming good.
It’s about how this little kid, has been told all his life that he’s bad. And no matter what he does or how hard he tries, nothing he does changes anyone’s mind about him, until one day he just accepts it.
How he’s been told he’s evil for so long that he just accepts it. Every evil thing he does, is because he knows that is what everyone expects of him. He doesn’t even necessarily like it. It’s what he thinks he SHOULD be doing or SHOULD enjoy as a villain.
Look at Megamind. He’s dramatic, he’s positive, he’s fun and easy to get along with. He’s not evil.
Once he starts seeing Roxanne, he finally has someone who makes him feel good, and he does everything he can to make her happy. He cares about her. That’s not evil.
Megamind is about a misunderstood kid, that was never given a chance.
Megamind is about how society, ultimately failed a child.”
Then he pressed play and we went back to watching the movie.
After that conversation, the movie was a LOT sadder…..
well fuck.
