Lol That is one judgey cushion in that image :'D

Same. It's the first red flag of Author Stand-In is Very Special.

But that is what people are naming their kids. If it's contemporary fiction, then it makes sense to have characters with those names.

[meadowphoenix]

honestly whenever a name strikes oddly, i think about how at the end of the book i've become accustomed to it, haha. people generally only think names are stupid when the names are outside of their own social milieu. But I'm coming from the era where a lot of people made fun of "black" names like princess and countess, meanwhile duke, earl and rex were considered completely reasonable for non-black folk.

The Scholomance series wastes zero time in pointing out how silly it is to name a child, much less one with incredible power, Galadriel. It makes sense in context (*contains ramble), but there's a reason she goes by El, and grumbles about it constantly.

[(Anonymous)]

Normally I don't think fictional tastes reflect real ones but in the case of names I can't imagine you take people with those names seriously in real life if you can't handle fiction with them in it. You should work on accepting that people (usually) don't choose their names. Judge Breighden's parents, not Breighden.

"Per se"

It's a legal term from Latin.

I have heard similar mentioned before and I’m curious why you only see the actress? I’ve seen her in a couple things but not much and I couldn’t pick her out of a crowd if my life depended on it, but I don’t follow celebrities/celeb culture/gossip stuff so I’ve wondered if she gets featured a lot.

[(Anonymous)]

I just like her song Replay.

I’ve been trying to cut back on writing intelligent creatures that a human could kill without feeling guilty about it, but there’s certainly plenty of room to explore different species with different viewpoints. So much of how you experience the world can vary based on even minor differences, like whether you’re tall or short. So a species that can walk through solid objects, or a species that’s almost impervious to bludgeoning injuries, will have default assumptions a human won’t have and approach things in ways a human wouldn’t usually think of. It’s mind-bending to try to work out just how many things would play out differently in their society.

The Twilight movies didn't work because Twilight doesn't work.

I dare say its definitely been the case in 'bigger'/popular fandoms. Not saying that it can never happen in any other kind of fandom - but I've been lucky to have been in small-ish but active fandoms with next to no drama for the past few years, and only had that kind of trouble in the bigger fandoms I was briefly in.

This is one problem with a lot of games that try to mimic Dark Souls. You get this general sense that the world has fallen apart, but you have so little grasp on what it was like before the fall, so there’s nothing to mourn.

Someone mentioned using RSS feeds to see updated tags. Can you do that for bookmarks or just tags? Because I am only interested in completed fics.

OP would not last 5 minutes in the How to Train Your Dragon fandom.
