You actually cannot skip to being good at a creative endeavour that you haven't put much practice into. You cannot trick your way out of the 'knows that your work is not what you want it to be but don't know how to improve it' stage by planning or reading or talking about it really really hard. At some point you just have to craft through it until your brain finds it's own unique way back to the 'everything I make slaps' stage and be prepared to start the cycle all over again. You just have to make that project you're excited about slightly less good than you want it to be. (Says this standing in a pool of blood and covered in blood and also coughing up a little blood)
everyone stop reblogging this I hate to be reminded of my own good advice
One fun thing about learning new languages is reconsidering the structure of words and language in your mother tongue. It seems with each new language I study, I get more little insights into English, either in how it's similar or how it's different.
For example, a couple years ago, while learning Spanish, I encountered the word for a store, "la tienda." I thought "huh, that's a lot like tener (tiene) - the word for store in Spanish literally corresponds to 'to have/keep'. How interesting!"
Then I stopped for a moment, and for the first time in my life, thought about seriously about the meaning of English word for the place where you buy things, "a store."
today there was a “flash mob” set up by the seniors because it was their second to last day so they blasted the macarena over the loud speaker and did the dance in the main lobby but our headmaster knew about it so it wasn’t even funny but whilst walking past the elevator i found out why they really did this so called “flash mob”
it was a distraction
they put chickens in the elevator
This was wild because I forgot your high schoolers are called seniors and I thought you were talking about old folks
“it was their second to last day”

was at the corner store getting a few snacks and a 7 year old with a single packet of two poptarts struck up a conversation with me while I was choosing between Chex mix flavors. weighed in on the flavors. They continued to follow me through the store all the way to checkout and stood there talking to me at the register so the cashier thought they were my kid and I finally said “are you possibly hoping for someone to buy those poptarts” and they pulled out a WAD of cash and said “nope just talking to ya.”
absolutely enchanting child no notes
energy of an 85 year old who got freaky friday’d tbh
i had a dream that i was watching a miniseries on the life of frederick douglass starring rachel weisz (as frederick douglass) and it made me so mad i woke myself up
the kids in hsm2 shouldve unionized that country club
everybody tells children of divorce that it's not their fault their parents got divorced but you know what? if your parents never got divorced that's not your fault either. you were a child. you could not have made that happen even if you wanted to. if they stayed together, that's a choice they made and it doesn't matter if their reasons were about you. you were not and could not have been responsible for that. free yourself. you are blameless.
#and if your parents got married because of you that’s not your fault either #and if your parents had another kid to be your playmate that’s also not your fault #and if your parents abandoned you to your older sibling’s care that’s neither your fault nor your sibling’s #your parents should have thought things through instead of blaming their decisions on you I promise you that it wasn’t your fault (via @thoughtthingsthrough)
remember like 15 years ago when black bloggers were talking about this exact shit, 'digital blackface', white internet users appropriating images and clips of black people and using them as cartoonish exaggerated expressions of absurdity or high emotion. straight line from minstrelsy to your reaction gifs and nobody fucking cares any more. white people just decided not to acknowledge it and it went away, just like every other time black users have ever tried to criticise any aspect of online culture.

when i was a little kid (age 8 and on) i had 3 veryyy intense special interests i constantly infodumped about to anyone who gave me the time of day. these were:
The Bubonic Plague
Vampire Folklore
Tree frogs.
So as you can imagine my mom spent many years prepping me for social outings by doing a call-and-response litany with me that went "let's focus on tree frogs tonight. let's tell people about tree frogs."
À Paris, la position de Julien envers madame de Rênal eût été bien vite simplifiée ; mais à Paris, l’amour est fils des romans. Le jeune précepteur et sa timide maîtresse auraient retrouvé dans trois ou quatre romans et jusque dans les couplets du Gymnase, l’éclaircissement de leur position. Les romans leur auraient tracé le rôle à jouer, montré le modèle à imiter ; et ce modèle, tôt ou tard, et quoique sans nul plaisir, et peut-être en rechignant, la vanité eût forcé Julien à le suivre. (Le Rouge et le noir, ch 7, pp 37-38)
my translation:
In Paris, the position of Julien vis-à-vis Madame de Rênal would soon have been simplified; but in Paris, love is the child of novels. The young tutor and his timid mistress would have found in three or four novels, and even in the couplets of the théâtre du Gymnase, the explanation of their situation. The novels would have mapped out the role to play, shown the model to imitate; and it is this model, sooner or later, and even though it would have been without pleasure and perhaps even with reluctance, that vanity would have forced Julien to follow.
like. the concept of romantic love has to be taught to people...this guy does not want a lover he does not care about this lady but if he had KNOWN there were expectations he would have been like damn guess i better start seducing her or my life doesn't make any sense. because that is what the script says. amatonormativity as propagated through popular culture in 1820s france
i'm finding le rouge et le noir like. sooo hard to follow and i don't know exactly why. the vocab is not difficult. the syntax is less convoluted than some other authors i have had less trouble with, aside from the fact that sometimes stendhal is not trying hard enough to make his referents clear.
maybe the main departure is that he doesn't really rephrase himself in the way i am accustomed to french authors doing...like chez dumas for example there'll be a beast of a sentence i can't figure out but i don't really worry about it because the next sentence will be making the same point in a different way, and between the two of them i can figure out what's happening. but not only does stendhal not do this, he also seems to switch topics from paragraph to paragraph or even within the same paragraph?? i can't figure out how all these sentences are related to each other. he just seems to be jumping du coq à l'âne as they say. but maybe i'm confusing cause and effect - maybe it just seems to me that the sentences are unrelated because i don't actually understand the individual sentences. i don't know how to solve this problem. i can't just look up words or grammatical structures. i might have to resort to a translation but i really don't want to. it was written in 19th-century literary french so it should be well within my wheelhouse...it's not freaking villon for crying out loud!
no rest for me and im not even that wicked ?
gregor is like a friend that i worry about

feeling so normal about breq and seivarden rn
[ID: Imperial Radch fanart of Breq and Seivarden. The two are shown in color from the bust up in the first piece. Seivarden has tied-back shoulder-length locs with gold rings, and she's frowning intensely, apparently topless; Breq has close-cropped hair, is wearing a brown uniform, and looks unimpressed.
The second piece is uncolored and shows them walking together. Breq, eyebrows raised, asks, "Are you with me?" Seivarden replies passionately, looking upset to be asked: "Always. Haven't I already said that?" End ID]
ooohhhh ok i REALLY like the grammar going into Jonr's mind and supplying every pronoun/preposition etc, messed up and very uncomfortable to experience, sure, but also fun to read :)
