I learned of fungating tumors.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
They're also known as ulcerating tumors.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
The human body is a horrifying thing.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
I'm watching APPLE CIDER VINEGAR.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
This show is good since it captures the absolutely frustrating experience of watching people be tricked by quackery.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
And the utter ruthlessness of the quacks peddling the bullshit.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
There is a scene in the 3rd episode that made me go HOLY SHIT in shock and rage.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Belle has a stillbirth. The father of the child, Clive, holds the dead baby and says the baby is perfect. Belle, bluntly, says that, "this is how nature deals with things. The baby isn't perfect, or else she would've lived."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
WHICH I KNOW MUST BE FICTION.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Since the show makes a point of saying things are fictionalized to avoid paying Belle Gibson money.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Or maybe I want the stillbirth scene to be fiction because my brain doesn't want to accept that someone can be that fucking cruel.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Essie Davis looks perfect as Belle's trashy mother.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THIS SHOW IS HORRIBLE MOM CENTRAL, SO WARNING ON THAT.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Can anthologies please stop offering less than $0.10USD???
THE SHUNT
LOVED THAT MINISERIES BUT ITS A HARD WATCH
THE SHUNT
imagine paying creatives!! couldn't be anyone on THIS fucking planet
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : it gets so tiring to see OTHER authors offering nothing to buy first print rights for their anthologies!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
SO HAD A FRUSTRATING MOMENT WITH CISHET DUDE.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
He doesn't read submission guidelines thoroughly before he submits works.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
There is a monster fucker anthology. They are taking reprints and unpublished pieces. Unpublished pieces get priority.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Cishet dude wants to submit a story that he's been selling as a zine.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
I told him that he needed to label it a reprint when submitting.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
He then was "self published counts as published???"
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
I said ya. That's why I dont put new stories out on my itchio.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Just make sure you say it's a reprint in the cover letter. You'll be fine.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
"I'VE MADE $300 ON SELLING MY ZINES, SHAUNTAE!"
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
okay, bro. it's a reprint.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
"Look, I'd have more stories to submit if I wasn't fighting for my life employment wise."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Which ????
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
The primal scream of nonbinary rage I wanted to unleash.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Instead I said that I am a disabled creature who manages the house and I still manage to write.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
He apologized to me.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
He was acting like I was telling him not to submit.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
also why submit if you're making $300 selling zines
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
stick to the zine selling because that's going to make you more money!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : Another cis man tried defending the doofus, too. Saying well, if he didn't make money, would it still count as published???
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
YES. SELF-PUBLISHED. IT HAS THE WORD PUBLISHED IN IT!!
THE SHUNT
what is even confusing about this, honestly
THE SHUNT
have you published it? yes?? THEN ITS PUBLISHED LOL
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
the defender then asked well, what if he published on AO3??
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
that's free to read!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
yes. still published.
THE SHUNT
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
that is why pull-to-print exists. fanfics that get turned into an original piece of fiction get pulled off the site by the request of the publisher!!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
also POSTING ORIGINAL WORK ON AO3 IS AGAINST TERMS OF SERVICE.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
the defender then said, "i don't really know much about publishing."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : the cishet dude and the defender kept acting like i was saying, "don't submit it," when what i said was, "submit it as a reprint."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
the defender also tried this business bro thing of "if an author made money off the story, i'd put it in my anthology over an unpublished piece."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
"that means it has market viability."
THE SHUNT
THE SHUNT
imagining what the world would be like if the majority of popular creative works weren't made by dudes like this
THE SHUNT
utopia
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
yeah. um. anthology editors do this thing called invites.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
they invite a popular author to submit to an anthology to get buzz going.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
this is an open call anthology.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
if they wanted cishet dude for selling $300 worth of zines, he would he invited by the editor.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : i would fucking love a world like this.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
this open call anthology just said please be honest if you submit a reprint! and that unpublished pieces get priority... OH I GET IT NOW.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
LOL. IS BEING TOLD THAT IT WOULD BE A LOWER PRIORITY MAKING THESE MEN LOSE THEIR SHIT?
THE SHUNT
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE WHITE CIS MEN COULD HANDLE BEING A SLIGHTLY LOWER PRIORITY.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
lol i don't even get why i try explaining shit to cishet white men.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
they usually just submit shit to things without reading guidelines anyway.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
like i saw in-depth conversations between people who read slush piles talking about all the cis men who send in rape fantasies.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
that's part of why so many places are "no rape in your horror, please."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
which doesn't fucking work anyway.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
jokes on us, these men don't know how to read.
THE SHUNT
they don't let things like rules bother them thats like their main feature lol
THE SHUNT
while the rest of us follow them lest we get actually punished!!!
THE SHUNT
PROBABLY BY THEM
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : YEAH.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
like, cishet dude also didn't read the submission guidelines past 'monsterfucking.'
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
hell, half the time he sends things off and he doesn't even bother checking the name of the damn editor first!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
is it bad i hope this dude does submit and gets rejected?
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
i am trying not to be petty rn.
THE SHUNT
i think considering the dumbass arguements you've just had it is pretty natural to wish them ill lmfao
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : i've read this story, too. it has like a fish dude licking a butthole at some point after the chick farts.
THE SHUNT
wow edgy
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
this helps the lady cope with her mother dying.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
this is his attempt at a sweet love story.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
a fishman eating ass.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
meanwhile, my vague idea is giant, two dicked lizard man falls for a hot chick and kills her shitty husband to get her. they fuck while covered in the husband's blood.
THE SHUNT
THE SHUNT
romance!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : FUCKING THE MONSTER WHO KILLED YOUR HUSBAND.
THE SHUNT
i still dont have tiktok on my phone and every video about how XTOK ruined something reinforces my decision to be Old about it LOL
THE SHUNT
let me guess: there are 20yr olds cheerfully explaining how to make chlorine gas
THE SHUNT
(not on purpose just bcuz theyre stupid)
THE SHUNT
toilet full of ice. why. why this
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : the frowning sponge daddy at the center of the toilet being drowned in chemicals cracks me up.
THE SHUNT
i didn't know they even made frowning scrub daddies rofl
THE SHUNT
makes sense tho since there's zero reason to add 200 chemicals to your toilet
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
tiktok is just where americans display their insane overconsumption.
THE SHUNT
i saw a vid about RESTOCK TIKTOK and i was left horrified lol
THE SHUNT
zero chance that a majority of all that isn't used and is just thrown out
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : the cupboards choked with beauty supplies.
THE SHUNT
in their 'guest bathroom' lmfao
THE SHUNT
who tf is your guest
THE SHUNT
if i'm a guest i do not open any drawers unless i'm told thats where something is lmfao
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
i wonder if these places are airbnbs.
THE SHUNT
oh maybe!! i just always assumed airbnbs do as little as possible and also make YOU clean up
THE SHUNT
altho i can picture a little menu of surcharges for everything you take LOL
THE SHUNT
like a minibar but worse!!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
$20 tacked on for using a squirt of shampoo.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
I'm watching a podcast on the Zizians and the internet was a mistake.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
UPDATE ON DUMBASS MAN. he is claiming that that he thought i said that the publisher would publish his zine???
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
and that's why he reacted with all caps of OH MY GOD and such.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
and started talking about how he made money with the zine and how it's not his fault he only has a few stories and like ???
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
NONE OF THAT MAKES SENSE.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
WHATEVER.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
He is a twit.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
I'm going back to watching this video on a rationalist death cult who based shit on a Harry Potter fanfic.
THE SHUNT
THE SHUNT
TY
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
I think one of my favorite genres of video is a person explaining an insane internet thing to a person who goes outside.
THE SHUNT
behind the bastards excellent for this genre of content lmao
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : eli listens to them. this is my first time.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
eli was like 'you hear about the zizians???'
THE SHUNT

๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE SHUNT : I SAW IT. "I'm so lonely..."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Last thing you want to hear when a dude is beating you to death.
THE SHUNT
its pretty fucked haha. it could've been a super cheesy moment but he sells it
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
JDM is good at selling cheesy bullshit.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
The way he says "they think I'm unstable."
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
I really don't like how Ruby Franke's husband seems to be getting away with being a useless dad.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
Kevin Franke took part of the channel. He made an LLC when they received their first AdSense check!
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
"Being filmed was uncomfortable!" My man, you know what's uncomfortable? Hiking ten miles a day in the desert for weeks on end.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
You sent your son to that fucking camp.
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
THE DAD ADMITTED HE WAS LIVING THROUGH HIS SON AND THE ATTENTION THE SON WAS GETTING FROM THE VIEWERS??? EW???
๐Ÿ‡ Shauntae ๐Ÿ‡
i know this is a parody but IT IS TOO REAL FEELING
