Unsolicited writing advice: no. 8075: There is no such thing as serious writing. There are only writers who take their work seriously, and those who don’t. Tragedy is no more “serious” than comedy. Children’s writing is no less “serious” than writing for adults. Good writing is wherever you find it.

I really hope elected Dems see the turnout today and decide to use the power they have (while they still have it) to push, every way they can. The people want it!

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”? anyway that’s why these events are important

Seeing a lot of "No Kings" protests groups using AI images lately You aren't resisting fascism by using their tools Be better than that

Genuinely powerful words to live by.

Just caught up with this and I am LOVING it

Treat your kids using AI like you would treat your kids smoking. Slap it out of their hands and explain nothing is worth the long-term damage.

I’m tempted to dunk, but ok, let’s engage seriously. Putting Japanese-Americans in concentration camps was a fascist activity. (And I think that if you were Japanese-American at the time, you were experiencing the US as a fascist country.) Does that mean the US was fascist? Wrong question.

There’s a large part of the creative process that involves hours or days of experimentation. Unfortunately, when experimentation leads nowhere, it feels like you wasted a lot of time. The hard part is reminding yourself that you learned what DIDN’T work, and that’s very important.

this photo always makes me imagine an AU where alpha!Rey borrows omega!Ben's jacket and he goes into a breakthrough heat which OF COURSE she helps him get through (I want to write this so bad, but I can't, so if anyone else wants to do it PLEASE DO because I would love to read it)

I’m opening a movie theater in which I show recently released films that I ripped from the internet but the studios are welcome to opt out if they wish.

Just a reminder: No matter the fandom, if you sort by Kudos on AO3 and only read the most popular fics, you're going to miss a LOT of amazing fanworks, including the ones still being actively updated. Especially for older fandoms that may be less active now.

People who have seen the way civility is weaponized can tell you, no behavior is meek enough to protect you against a govt bent on using your incivility as the excuse for raining violence upon you for daring to demand dignity. Know this: you can never be civil enough to deserve that which you ask.

the real trick in Enemies to Lovers is not getting characters to fall in love it's getting them to truly despise each other first. vague dislike and mild distrust because of extant circumstances isn't enough. i need actual enmity, real archfoe bullshit. i need to see them make each other bleed.

WHY did I choose this expression, of all the expressions, to paint, you wonder? because @flowerofcarrots.bsky.social asked me nicely & I thought it was hilarious

‘Booty’ and ‘butt’ are synonyms. ‘Call’ and ‘dial’ are synonyms. But, a ‘booty call’ and a ‘butt dial’ are VERY different things.

When these things happen which clearly express who we value and who we don’t, believe them.

Let's not forget that we LOVE these people, but we've tolerated their bigotry and racism for MOST OF OUR ADULT LIVES. We DESPERATELY want our moms and dads back. We want our brothers and sisters. We want to hug and care for them like they did for us as kids. But we can't. So we're moving on.

Actually, Frankenstein is a doctor success at the Venice film festival

When someone started tampering with Tylenol bottles in 1982 the company recalled $100 million worth of bottles immediately even though they clearly weren't at fault

an appropriate response to your product killing a child after months of psychological manipulation and torture is to take the product off the market before it kills again and the fact that this isn’t universally accepted right now is incredibly frightening

Hey, writers? Say it with me: "Fuck imposter syndrome." Someone's out there using ChatGPT to do what you're doing because they're a fucking loser. You, who's doing the work, are so much better than that 💙✨

Trying to argue that an algorithm trained to be compliant has rights at the same time actual humans are denied theirs for the crime of existing differently is some pretty stupid shit.

The young people who would have been most likely to lead the domestic anti-fascist fight in 2025 were repeatedly arrested, beat, jailed, mocked by elites and non-elites over the past 5 years. This was bipartisan. I find it interesting whenever some people ask 'where the young people are' now.

Co-signed times a thousand. “Other people have no interiority” is, fundamentally, a deeply evil belief to hold which will lead you exclusively to terrible places

“Read to be a better writer” is 101 shit. The way it works out in practice is “notice things.” In everything you do. Not just reading. Although that is a great way to practice, and the way most of us enter writing. I get very tired, as someone whose brain got scrambled by a novel virus,

Rey is an unsuspecting barista caught in the crossfire of the latest hit on the rising leader, the infamous Kylo Ren. Until the bullets started raining down, she knew him as the guy who liked extra cinnamon on his chai oat latte. Now she's under his protection, whether she likes it or not

We're too close for it now, but in due time, someone is going to write a piece detailing how fanfic writers, who are an incredibly diverse group of people from around the globe, were blamed for encouraging the rise of fascim instead of the actual fascists 🙃🙃 Like be so fucking for real right now

I love the preorder art @lilithsaur.bsky.social did for ROAD TRIP WITH A VAMPIRE so much 😭🥰 Thrilled that this will be available to everyone who preorders through @parnassusbooks.bsky.social by Sept 9!

This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.

You cant separate bigotries especially with extremists like terfs, see John Boyne and JKR's antisemitic fiction work, or terf's racist harassment of athletes, or as Casey points out here terfs frequent support of the genocide of Palestinians. We have to oppose all violations of human rights.

And this is why we call him Crisp Rat

Since everyone seems hungry for a litmus test, here's one: ask your sitting House D if they will support Jeffries for party leader in January 2027. If they say yes, it's primary time.
