Get the start of authoritymug. Written with a hyphen, the phrase author-cast refers to the author's equivalent of a fancast. It is the practice of casting celebrities as characters in your book. Originated in the fanfic-writing community and is very prevalent on Wattpad. However, there is still an issue with representation in author-casts.
"Hey, I just finished my author-cast, want to see?"
"Oh, cool! You have Idris Elba casted as the dad!"
"Yeah, he looks just like how I imagined him!"

Get the Author-Castmug. You thinking I think that is the reason I'm being singled out by my manager. You're a piece of shit Elisa. Kill yourself. Hopefully your daughter is as bad with men as you are and get her ass beat for CHOOSING WRONG.
Hym "All of the women in authority I've met have abused that authority. 100%. Absolute garbage. Especially this piece of shit."

Get the Women in authoritymug. A pretentious, postmodern jerk-off idea, popular among some academics, that says that the creator of an artistic work is irrelevant to the work, that their thought processes and intentions in creating the work don't matter, that they are not an authority on the very thing that they created, and that YOU, the passive consumer of the work, are more qualified to know what the work is about than they are, who put tons of hard work and effort into creating it.
Who does this "Ray Bradbury" person think he is, saying that Fahrenheit 451 is about how nobody reads books anymore? *I* say it's about censorship, dammit! What does HE know, he only wrote the damn thing! Death of the author says that creators are just passive, empty vessels through which the Divine Muse speaks!

Get the death of the authormug. The idea that the Bible has multiple authors is not something I learned from Jordan Peterson but, rather, Morgue.
Hym “The funniest part about this is watching you turn into a self-serving, self-important narcissist. It’s hilarious. You’ll take the undue credit and claim to be what this is based on but it is based everything I have ever encountered. You are one of many and (In my opinion) the most arrogant and contemptible. You are you and I am Hym. You couldn’t do what I did if you tried and the funniest part is that I was just winging it. So, there are no ‘authors’. I wrote down ideas that I had internalized in addition to ideas of my own. You’re conflating the two. In every instance where the ideas of others are replaced with mine, mine come out on top. By every metric. Whether it’s ratings, revenue, or the standard for creative achievement (subsequent texts being based on the source). This is what competence looks like. Behold. Is I blinding? Can you see? Or must you shield your eye from the radiant light that is the very essence of my being?.”

Get the Authorsmug. A slang term for "external authority", which is commonly imposed by parents, teachers, institutions, and employers to children, teenagers, and younger adults — but not that commonly imposed to seniors old enough to retire
I can't stand how third-party authority controls our lives—parents and teachers are always dictating what we can do, while seniors just chill and enjoy their freedom!
