Visions are seldom all they seem.
Don’t look at things you know will make you angry. Don’t read the comment sections. Don’t look at the blogs of people who add dumb comments to posts to confirm that they’re dumb all the time. Don’t read old conversations you had with people you don’t talk to anymore. Go look at pictures of kittens or something instead. Protect yourself from negativity in every way you can.
I've recently finished all of "Life with Derek". It is a fun show not gonna lie. To imagine that the many Dasey fanfictions is the reason how I found out about this show and got myself interested in it 🤣. Do not regret it!
Speaking of fics, can somebody recommend me good Dasey fanfictions? For later...
