When Dwight Swain was teaching workshops my granddad was still in college. Yet much of his advice rings true today. If I was teaching a class, this is the book we'd use. Read this #writingabtwriting to see if 'Techniques of the Selling Writer' is right for you. 💙📚 #writingq #writingcommunity

@00himesaurus00.bsky.social I saw the malfoid thing and I wondered. "Is this like if draco malfoy was trans?"

Our feature tutorial/artist for today is ANOTHER GEM by the talented @marinscos! EARS are almost at the EXACT CENTRE of the head's VERTICAL TILT, meaning the OTHER FEATURES move UP and DOWN PAST THEM in a NOD! #anime #manga #illustration #artists #art #comics #drawing #DRAW

I fantasize about Robert bloch's shambler from beyond the stars in 1930s women's fashion: one on the left.

This is extremely controversial, actually, Will. Simulating the physical processes of neurons is prohibitively computationally expensive, to the point of being infeasible. And we don't know how much of those processes can be simplified out without losing important data. bsky.app/profile/whst...

I enjoyed Mike Luckovich for years, and then he created this cartoon. I sat and cried for several minutes. Then I cut it out of the Los Angeles Times, and I've kept it ever since. Thank you, Mr. Luckovich.

Why do we give Charlie Kirk credit for how funny his last words are? It’s the shooter’s comedic timing that made the moment.

Howard's antipathy toward serpents inclined him toward serpent-people and snake-cults from relatively early in his career; I think the very first mention was a temple in an El Borak fragment that was unpublished 'til after his death. However, he developed his mythology and history gradually...

Same goes for September, freakos 🎃

The way people are losing their fucking minds over a proposal for a publicly owned grocery store should give you some insight into how a proposal for public libraries would be greeted today if they didn't already exist.

whole house mad 😭

I’m not the first person to make this observation but the prevalence of nauseating ai-generated business logos means stuff like this hits CRAZY for me now

Being jealous of other poets is weird. If you want popularity, poetry might be the absolute last thing you should be writing. I'm not sure if you should be writing at all actually. I think the way to get popular is to start a podcast and be wrong about everything.

NEAR nears Eros. "Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous - Shoemaker" launched in 1996 and actually touched down on 433 Eros in 2001, making it the first orbit and landing on an asteroid. #space #art by Eduardo-Tarasca. www.deviantart.com/eduardo-tara...

Oh, honey . . . Dolly Parton disliked everything you are. You are a selfish, venal fool who mocks those with misfortunes, lies, and takes food and medicine away from children. She was a generous, incorruptible sage who comforted those with misfortunes, spoke the truth, and gave to children.

Dolly Parton wasn't just a country music star—she loved nature and had hopes for the environment's future. In a 2022 interview with National Geo, the late musician shared her appreciation of her Tennessee mountain home while urging fans to take better care of the world. Video by Jerry Owens

Here's the whole strip, including the artist's signature.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 76696: Reading (both widely and critically) is the secret to writing well. No one can expect to write unless they also read, and understand the value of reading.

Others have said it previously, but I love how this promotional image from the 1990 Stephen King's IT looks like a prestige drama courtroom show, that just so also happens to involve a clown.

This is why Dolly Parton will be remembered and loved ❤️📚
