"Ma'am, ma'am, what should we do?" The fresh rookies crowd around me while I am simply enjoying my peace. Or, well, trying to enjoy my peace. I set my coffee down.

"You lot," I begin as they go quiet, "truly have some gall, crowdin' around me like ducklings with their mother duck."

They look at me in bewilderment, utter shock in those innocent eyes.

"You heard me," I say. "This is the SCP foundation, not the babysitter club. Now calm the hell down and figure out, rationally, how to solve this problem."

As they go their own ways and start talking solutions and containment procedures with their voices still audibly shaking, I make a note in my phone: 'teach new rookies how to deal with their jobs'.

Alarms blare throughout the facility. Screams and gunshots echo through the halls. The rookie scientists around you are in panic. You sip your coffee at the breakroom table in peace, “just another tuesday.” You state calmy.

Here's an idea for your thunder thursday: the song "my dad" by Paul Peterson, but it's John and Big James singing it for Zebedee.

I don't like to imagine season 7 to have a tragic end, BUT an idea came to me; what if, at the finale, it shows all the apostles going out into the world to preach, it all seems happy and hunky dory, but at the VERY VERY end (an end that some people might miss) it shows how the apostles died.

The breadsticks thing to me is hilarious I think it must be another Europe/America thing bc my whole life ‘breadsticks’ have been these hard crunchy thin stick things you buy them at the supermarket and it says breadsticks on the box Never in my life has anyone around me referred to an actual stick of bread as a breadstick lmao But then we don’t have Olive Garden either

OOOOOH I LIKE THIS I LOVE THIS

When bloody rain began to fall over most of the earth, many religious leaders began to proclaim the end times were upon us. Then corpses came crashing down, identified as Zeus, Odin, Osiris, and Jesus of Nazareth, and we realized it was so much worse.

He talked and i said "emily????"

The power of the writers of The Chosen deciding to make their primary antagonistic Roman Soldier talk like a valley girl.

No because it would be so stupid funny if this whole plot that has been going on for literal years with a massive fanbase would end as a self-insert fanfic.

At the series finale of Bungo Stray Dogs, we’re gonna find out that the real big bad villain is the author of the series itself, 

so I had a dream I was sprinting through a grocery store looking for monster energy . I was sprinting because I had left my other stuff on the conveyor belt and just. ran. they had none btw.

The eldritch god stood before the girl, in almost human form. “Your parents sold you to be my bride. I accepted, knowing that if I didn’t, they will just try another deity, but I will not force this on you. Have this credit card and live as you wish. If you want something else instead, just ask

As a german speaking individual, mushitarou randomly speaking german was so uncalled for.

Remember how akutagawa said he doesn't have long to live cause of his lung disease? What if - and hear me out - yosano could heal him? Bc she can completely heal anyone right? Like when the vampire thing is eradicated, i have hope that yosano could resurrect him.

THANK YOU! magnificently written, and say it louder for the people in the back!!

what is your problem with tiktok or booktok and colleen hoover lmao its not that bad surely

the fact that it actively promotes overconsumerism, the way it sells books to you by just playing into already heavily milked out tropes with very specific character niches that are seen in every book nowadays and how the reading is just seen as something aesthetic or a part of the "it girl routine" maybe? if those are enough reasons for you?

does the fact that these books are the first things you see when you walk into a bookstore not bother you? when you ask someone for a book recommendation they'll follow it up with "its a romance slow burn enemies to lovers". it's always about the aesthetic of the book, how many lines can you take out of context and post as a compilation of your super cute romantic annotations page on instagram. no analyzing the book, no theories, no symbolism or meaningfulness at all. how people stand reading those kind of books and still feel any kind of emotions over these flat as hell books with no world or character building is genuinely baffling to me

no one seems to know about actual literature anymore, which not to sound like a boomer but i think its definitely true. there's always been trend cycles, i agree such as the harry potter craze from the 1990s to the 2000s and the dystopia hunger games/maze runner/divergent blast in the early 2010s but tiktok has just.. shortened these cycles so much. as a result, people like our darling colleen hoover whose written around 46 books since 2015 (according to google) try come up with as much fresh content as they can as quickly as possible for the readers (see overconsumption). the fact that this lady outsold the bible is not outstanding to me, its fucking concerning.

and after all that, the result is badly written books with characters who're about as dimensional as a piece of paper, overuse of tropes, read like they've been written by a toddler, toxic-ass relationships being romanticised, very unnecessary sex scenes and countless other things. seriously if i wanted to read about the kind of stories hoover tells i would just open a wattpad account.

this isn't to say that all booktok books are terrible. i'm trying to highlight some of the flaws i find in authors like colleen hoover, emily henry, taylor jenkins reid, ali hazelwood, sarah j maas and elena armas. some of their works are quite decent :) six of crows, thsoeh, tsoa, circe, daisy jones, where the crawdads sing etc are some books which i think everyone has heard of if theyre active online which were actually nice reads. also i am BEGGING u to reach out of your comfort zone and read something different like non-fiction or fantasy or one of the classics for once if you only read booktok like seriously it might be hard but just do it for the love of god!!

i agree
