What she says: I'm fine
What she means: I've been screaming endlessly inside of my head for the past week. I haven't had a decent night sleep in longer than I can remember and I've lost track of how many days I've been laying in bed staring at a wall.

are you picky about food?
no, everyone eats skittles by first putting them in rainbow order and then selecting them in pairs from least delicious to most delicious
generally speaking when it comes to mental and physical health, if you're asked "do you struggle with this" and your answer is "no, Because I Have A System," then your answer is actually yes

Daily reminder to leave comments on fics to make someone's day after so much hard work 🥰
Kudos are great, Reblogs are great but it can feel so quiet without the comments. Even just a few words of encouragement, appreciation and deserved gratitude can go a long way!
If you don't know what to say, you can always:
say how the work made you feel: made you laugh, cry, sad, happy. Point out which parts made you feel what
quote the parts you really enjoyed or stood out to you and say why
say where you were or what you were doing when you read it and how it affected your day (there were so many instances when a great fic completely derailed my plans and I had to sneak out somewhere to scream internally and fangirl lol)
discuss characters, plot and theories, once you get talkative it will start pouring out lol
you can even use a meme!
honestly, at least just say "thank you" and how much you enjoyed it
extremely relevant bonus point: if you like the story so much that you're gushing about it with your friends and recommending it to them, the writer would love to hear all of that gushing even more than anyone 😂
People have written a lot of touchy-feely pieces on this subject but I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter
my job is to get drunk at family functions and judge people’s bookshelves
