If I'm not in the mood for slash entirely, or if I've read so much bad slash recently that I'm BEC with it then I still DNW slash. Sometimes I do the same with het.

Usually I go with "dnw unrequested noncanon ships" though

Post deadline on my assignment, no placeholder, no explanation to mods.

Which cam rip do you have? There are english .srt subs on opensubtitles for both the HushRip and the Slotslight cam that you could use with your current files pretty easily -- or just to have as a text file script -- but if you're watching crappy casino advert shit anyway then you might as well skip the torrenting and just stream it from Soap2Day or FFmovies or whichever .ru piracy site works for you. In my experience anything hosted on MyCloud usually has subtitles already loaded, turn them on with the CC button.

Obviously install uBlock or use a vpn if you go down this road, if you don't know how to do either of those things then this life ain't for you.

I might have to steal this.

It saves the handwriting over "but can I not even mention their parents who canonically fucked at least once???????"

That has nothing to do with writing last minute, though. Once I wrote the last sentence, I'll send the fic to my beta and change what she told me to and I'll never look at it again. It doesn't matter if I write the fic in the first week or the last week.

But what is with this no-man's-land of people between 18 and 25? That is so weird.

Re: let's play: DNW WTF

[(Anonymous)]

It's like this (we think):

Under 18: can only date other under 18s.
18-24: Can date 18-35-year-olds
25-34: Can date anyone over 18
34+: Can date anyone over 25

It's not bad as a general dating ethics guide (though it sucks for that three months senior year you have to break up with your gf until her birthday catches up to yours) but it's pretty ridic for a DNW. Especially when you fandom is "picture of cat". Might as well go with /2+7 at that point.

maybe the dnw is for the other fandoms they are asking for

Re: Yuletide TYWAU

[(Anonymous)]

no, most people (read: majority, over 50%) literally submit things right before the deadline in almost every situation possible. class assignments, fic assignments, the list goes on...

Title - What Is Procrastination?

Since it seems to be a phenomenon you have never heard of. And no, I don't think it's a negative thing...

Re: requests you were hoping for that didn't materialize

[(Anonymous)]

Someone nominated it a few years ago, too, and said later on ffa that they couldn't think of any ideas for it. I'd have been willing to come up with something!! But you gotta request it!

I was considering treating, so it's not worth asking through the mods.

Uh... aside from it being a pretty common thing just because... nonnie, you do realize this is a classic symptom of untreated ADHD and other things that lead to executive dysfunction, right? Things that are extremely common and underdiagnosed in fandom. Yes, duh, a lot of exchange participants will be like this.
