I have spent the past hour on Bluesky instead of writing or working on assignments for school because my attention span decided it didn't want to be productive. brb in like 4 hours

And it's never the vehemently anti-war message, or the rejection of rampant capitalism as it consumes the natural world, nor is it even the ways in which the grotesque and the beautiful can occupy the same space. It's always some twee bullshit misreading. All aesthetic, no form.

"how does it feel knowing all three of the main actresses from One Tree Hill published memoirs before you finished a novel" Well, that show made me bawl like a baby a million times so good for them I love Haley and Peyton and Brooke (especially Brooke)

latest thing driving me crazy about the current round of vote scolding is that even if given benefit of the doubt that these dems aren't personally transphobic, they're just getting votes, people are still being asked to put faith in the bravery of cowards kind of a big flaw there, the cowardice

It's Public Access Afterworld day! Buy it and read it you will not be sorry if you do

Tumblr is just RPF (something divisive that I famously am in the "hate" camp for) and horrible AI ads now but occasionally you'll stumble on some good posts of your current blorbo and it makes it all worth it

It's ace week, I don't know whether I'm still aspec or what but I fully support asexual and demisexual and all other people under the umbrella!

Oh my god I think about "The V*mpire" ALL THE TIME. One of the best short stories possibly ever?

On Irish legend’s dangerously seductive fairies, the beguiling aes sidhe.

Given the shift in media ownership over the Trump era, Democrats REALLY need to learn to ignore media handwringing now. Because I have no doubt their every move for accountability will be attacked from every possible angle.

Is it just me or do people on Threads (and this includes book people) LOVE drama Like there's a bit of book discourse on here from annoying people I don't especially like but Threads knows more drama than TNT

Friction is so important to creative work that people *add* friction to allow themselves to do it. Just one example: meter, in poetry. You create a framework that restricts you, that limits you, in order to give your thoughts a scaffold within which to build.

I see "Starcleaner Reunion" I press like

EA's closure of BioWare is transparently a vile move to shutter the studio that made by far their queerest titles. In the wake of this, I implore you: MAKE MORE QUEER ART. Make it trans. Make it horny. Make it scary. Make it loving. Make it with every inch of yourself. Flood the world with it!

I'm so bad at doing anything to help myself feel better and get out of bad headspaces lol

"AI Detectors", which do not work, exist not to catch people using AI but to create a climate in which so much work gets falsely flagged as AI that we all just give up and accept it as normal.
