There’s a fic on fanfiction(.)net that I’ve kept tabs on for years to see if it’s been updated or not. While I’m no longer even in the fandom it’s written for, it just has one of the greatest storylines I’ve ever read. Last time it was updated was 2011.

The other day, I decided to reread the entire thing and leave a very in-depth review of what I thought of each chapter. I also mentioned how I started reading it when I was 13 and am now 21, but always came back to see if it was ever finished because I loved it so dearly.

Today, said author sent me a private message saying that her analytics showed that the story was still getting views even after all these years, but no one ever bothered to leave reviews other than “update soon!!!”, so she never felt motivated enough to finish it. She said that me reviewing every single chapter with lengthy paragraphs made her cry and meant the world to her. She also mentioned that she felt encouraged to write the two remaining chapters needed to complete the story and that she would send me a message the night before she updates the fic.

I’m literally sobbing. I’m so excited :’)

Please always remember to leave a review when reading fanfiction!!! It means a lot to a writer.

THIS.

Signal boost. It doesn’t even have to be a full out “review”. Just a couple sentences mean a lot.

My brain: I wonder if people realize that the book of Leviticus was not written by a person, but actually dates to the time when the Greeks were dominating the Mediterranean and spreading their culture to the places they traded with, which included public baths and same-sex relationships, which the Levites of modern-day Israel couldn’t allow because they believed that they were the descendants of Levi, descendant of Jacob, whom God himself referred to as “Israel” and were therefore the chosen people that HAD to maintain their ancient traditions, so they introduced the Code of the Levites (aka: the Book of Leviticus) which included a contradiction to every single Greek custom to scare the descendants of Jacob from marrying any Greeks or attending public baths — meaning that people of the United States of America — the first free and modern democracy — have political platforms and personal opinions about homosexuality that they think is founded on the word of God, but in reality stems from a set of laws that were designed to prevent Jewish men from taking baths with Greek men

The older I get the more annoyed I get that the good history wasn’t taught at high school. I don’t care about when this battle was, tell me about the people, the underlying dynamics and the guys wanting to fuck!
