Hey so

the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like. 

So you know. 

This might be the real one, y’all.

people bitching about the usage of "too modern" words in fantasy or historical fiction is sometimes justified, but ultimately I think it's a waste of time because

  • all words exist within a specific time frame and it's pointless to avoid the fact that you're writing with the language of your own time
  • which words are actually "newer" than other words is sometimes wildly unintuitive

according to the dates given in the Oxford English Dictionary, if you wrote a book set in 1897, you could have your characters say "fuckable," (1889) "sexy" (1896) "uncomfy" (1868) "hellacious" (1847) "dude" (1877) "all righty" (1877) and "heck" (1887), but not "wiggly" (1932) "moronic" (1910) "uptight" (1934) "lowbrow" (1901) "fifty-fifty" (1913) "burp" (1932) "bagel" (1898) or use the word "rewrite" as a noun (1901)

Some more words where the date of their first known usage just Doesn't Sound Right:

  • hangry, as in the portmanteau of 'hungry' and 'angry' (1912)
  • dildo (1590)
  • yucky (1970)
  • grungy (1965)
  • freebie (1925)
  • shitty (1768)
  • boost (1815)
  • boss (1856)
  • TGIF, as in Thank God It's Friday (1941)
  • yay (1963)

Fucked up (1863) is much older than fuck you (1943) but older still is the now-obscure fucked out (1862) which means what it sounds like—exhausted from too much sex.

how did we let fucked out fall out of fashion? are people not getting fucked out enough these days? we need to get fucked out more we gotta bring this back

I’m proud to identify as morosexual. I’m attracted to dumbasses and dumbasses exclusively. A guy asked me what the Spanish word for tortilla was once and now I dream of kissing him under the moonlight

i’m sick and had a dream where mcr was playing a show in my bed room and i was really embarassed because i had to stop them halfway thru to move my cats food and water so he wouldn’t get scared by the loud songs and also so i could hide a comically large pile of clothes under my bed because in all fairness i was not aware i was going to have an mcr concert in my bedroom until it was already happening. also i kept recognizing people in the audience as people who used to cosplay homestuck ten years ago and when i mentioned it gerard way started to say “ah, i remember homestuck” and the dream immediately ended to protect my psyche

something very important to mention is that for this whole dream gerard way did not look like gerard way. he looked like popular transgender adult actress natalie mars
