it’s free Stealing Ask Memes From Tumblr estate

[a_flyleaf]

Send me a 🔥 for an unpopular opinion.
Bonus points if you include a topic. (IE. shipping, roleplaying, ect.)

It’s slow over here in large part because I still only log in once in a blue moon and never interact with people ever, but what the heck! Throw some Spicy Onion prompts at me. You are welcome and in fact encouraged to send multiple prompts per comment, anon or not.

_{...man, I don’t miss tumblr whatsoever, but the lack of ask memes do leave an Interaction with Strangers on the Internet void in my life :pensive:}

I was going to make a comment about how bizarre tumblr social norms seem outside the context of That Particular Hellsite, but y’know what? This is barely scratching the surface :^D

…Anyhow, extremely late reply, as I do:
Firstly, yes, the emoji can seem somewhat pointless. I think it makes the request seem easier on behalf of the asker? If you don’t have a topic in mind, you can still interact via simple copy-paste.
As for the actual opinions:

What are the popular opinions on passion projects? Aside from the obligatory rant about “society at large” deeming them a waste of time/effort for lack of immediate profit, I guess. Er, here’s a thought: passion projects are great and I support them, and I wholeheartedly encourage people to dive into a project that seems way over their head! Whether they finish it or not, it’s worth it for the experience!
But also, people are not remotely kidding when they recommend starting small, whether it be with a short comic or story or game or anything. Maybe it’s just me, but there’s a certain lingering dissatisfaction to leaving one’s first Big Project^TM incomplete.... :T

Confession: I have not had a single interview thus far in my life! I am horrifically intimidated by the prospect of thereof! But if they really are asking esoteric questions with fifty layers of hidden meaning... honestly, what the fuck.

And oh, coding. My latest love. This is a somewhat unpopular opinion among my current class, but I don’t think PHP is that difficult! …at least not to implement, with a working functions.php file that someone else already wrote. It reminds me of the blocks used to build a tumblr theme, which to be fair I have some experience with.

Thank you for the prompts, my friend :>
