🍄 Mushroom: What is a quote you find comfort in?

here’s three omg im too mentally ill for one not gonna lie <3 

“sleep heavily and know that i am here with you. the past is gone, and cannot harm you anymore. and while the future is fast coming for you, it always flinches first, and settles in as the gentle present. this now, this us, we can cope with that. we can do this together you and i.”- cecil baldwin

“she peels an orange, separates it in perfect halves, and gives one of them to me. if i could wear it like a friendship bracelet, i would. instead i swallow it section by section and tell myself it means even more this way. to chew and to swallow in silence with her. to taste the same thing in the same moment.” - nina lacour

“meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air, are heading home again. whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting — over and over announcing your place in the family of things.” - mary oliver

thank you so much my love :) have a wonderful day/night <33

asenora, is it "shit" or "shite" that'd be the go-to for british teenagers in the 90s ;-; ?

this is basically my greatest fic-writing struggle rn, i speak american eng and have alr given in to the irresistible pull of "holy shit" (the phrase "holy shite" made my eyes water) and "bullshit" + am currently holding myself back by a Thread from "dogshit" (it's a ron pov and i just KNOW he'd overuse this if it was a part of his vocab)

my advice to american authors is to exclusively use "shit".

"shite" is used in ways which don't quite work by non-british/non-irish writers almost every time i see it, to be honest.

and the reason is that it's actually surprisingly complicated for such a little word. it's not an entirely straightforward synonym for "shit" - the usage heavily depends on context and the context heavily depends on things like regional dialect and factors [such as social class] which are often intertwined with it.

for example, in some parts of mainland britain "shite" is considered milder/more jovial than "shit"... so describing a film as "complete shite" is saying that it was so bad it was good and you enjoyed it, and saying "oh shite, i'm late" means you'll have to rush but you'll be fine.

in others, however, it would come across as stronger than "shit" - and so you'd be saying that you hated the film and had a terrible time, and that you're going to miss your plane.

"shit" - in contrast - means "shit". context clues can fill in how strongly it should be taken.

[my other profanity-related advice to american authors is to take however much swearing you think the characters would do and quadruple it...]

me anytime i get too passionate abt something, 98% of the time something vapid/nonsensical + inconsequential: [vibrating with pent-up fixation] i need to be put down, i need to be put down like a sick dog

My average writing experience:

"Alright I think I'm almost done actually-"

*Google doc grows second health bar and a choir starts singing in latin*

[manifesting as hard as i possibly can] please, please god, please, please, please let more people get into my extremely niche and somewhat dated hyperfixation ship 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏

this is what we mean when we say “defund the police”

i’ve decided the new gender neutral form of Ms/Mr is just THE

Sometimes you like the fandom favorite and that's annoying because you have to see all the wild takes that do not interpret them the correct way. Other times, you like the fandom's least favorite and that's annoying because you still have to see all the wild takes that do not interpret them the correct way.
