Gods grant me the megalithic balls of those people who only comment on something to say, “I’d have preferred this story to be different.”

Your fanfiction authors aren’t waiters in a fancy restaurant. You can’t request they shuffle off back to the kitchen and ask the chef to make this dish here but more like you prefer.

Your fanfiction authors are friends who’ve brought homemade dishes to a free potluck supper. 

If you try something and it’s too spicy, move on. If you try something and think it’s overcooked, move on. If you take the foil off something, have a sniff and think, “Hoo boy, not for me,” don’t go find the person who made it so you can tell them. Just zip it, move on, and have something else from the table. There’s plenty to choose from.

“But I’m trying to help you improve your skills.” No, Karen, you’re whining because you like sausage rolls and I brought lamb madras. Shut the hell up.

Omg yes! So much yes to this post! The notion stems from the idea that if they didn’t like some specific thing in the story, it’s because you’re a bad writer. It doesn’t occur to them that it might just be perfectly sound writing, but it wasn’t a choose-your-own-adventure, so they feel at liberty to castigate the author over it. This free dish to a potluck analogy is spot on!

“did chris evans actually jump that high to grab onto that helicopter in civil war?”

friendly reminder that chris vaulted with ease over chris pratt after just telling him less than a minute before that he would be able to clear him if he only put his head down.

I want a Celebrity Obstacle Course show where all the pretty people can show off their hard stunt work for us and also occasionally eat it, because they need to be humbled sometimes. The judges would be career stunt people, to give them visibility, because they work even harder. Shirts optional.

You wouldn’t even finish the phrase “Celebrity Ninja Warrior” before Chris would start jumping up and doing yelling “Me! Me! Pick me!”

Anyone know how to contact Netflix about this?

friendly reminder Chris did most of his stunts bc the stunt guys couldn’t move like him.

“One thing we found, too, is Chris can run very fast. He also has a very unique run. It’s almost a dancer’s run. And when we tried to double him for running, there was nobody who could run like him. They just didn’t have the same dynamics or the way he moves. He had to end up doing most of his running.”

“What we also found, is that we had gymnasts come in to do things, and Chris could do the same stuff that they could do, but it would look like Chris Evans. When the body doubles or the gymnasts or the runners did it, it just didn’t look like him. He has such a unique way of moving, and he could pretty much do all of his own physical stuff that wasn’t dangerous. Like this shot right here, we had a gymnast do this, and Chris actually ended up doing it better. That’s Chris here. He hops up on a tank and over a 12-foot wall. It looks effortless but it’s not that easy!”

“Chris worked his butt off for four months doing gymnastics and stunt training so in a scene like this he could go toe-to-toe with Georges St-Pierre and make it look really credible. Once the helmet comes off, 95% of that is Chris, except obviously for that massive aerial kick that he does. I think he did a fantastic job.”

The really cool thing about Chris Evans is that he’s a super talented, athletic guy. He retains things amazingly well. I mean, I’m blown away. I can show him a 15-punch fight two times, and he’s got it. - Thomas Harper, Stunt Coordinator, CATWS

@littlesnowarrow

Look at that arc and the exceptional way he throws (or maybe memes the throw) and the way he twists and the way his hand finishes off.

It’s a perfect dance move, but just better.

This guy. Seriously.

in addition to the fact that people just have different natural rhythms, a big reason why we can’t seem to go to bed as early as we “should” is that nighttime is, for many of us, our safest and most fulfilling time of day. we don’t have to work, we won’t be contacted by bosses or insurance companies or collections agencies or other suffocating life business… we’re likely only to be contacted by our friends, or by no one at all. night time is release; it’s ours. we can rest or recreate. we can do things we actually want to do. who would choose to cut that short?? just to usher in the next morning when our lives are not our own again? nighttime is precious and nothing could be more normal than the desire to embrace this

I feel this on a deep level

This is the struggle of my entire life. I am an inherently nocturnal person who has to fit into an early morning life and it is NOT natural for me. Right now I have to wake up at 6:15am almost every day to work out, shower, and get to work, so I try to get at least 6 hours of sleep. I also don’t usually write much before 11pm, so I have this tiny window. Except that’s also when I have to do most of the rest of my living - you know, communicating with people, planning other projects like concerts that I’m putting together, pieces that I’m arranging, etc. It’s very limited but you also have to sleep, too. So frustrating!
