my favorite genre of fictional character is like "i am terrifying to almost everyone, i'm very good at killing, i can endure anything, i've become exceptionally good at playing into my reputation, and if you try to give me positive social interaction i will react with confusion and cower in a corner like an abused animal. and i may try to shoot you. but there is also a chance i may imprint on you like a feral dog receiving its first loving touch! good luck."

question. why do you have 7 featureless grey monoliths in your driveway
There's eight actually but the last one is still in the garage
question. why do you have eight featureless grey monoliths
They're actually a really dark purple
question. why do you have seven featureless really dark purple monoliths in your driveway and an eighth in the garage
Some of them do have features though. There's holes and hinges and stuff, so I can put secrets in em
question. why do you have 8 really dark purple occasionally featureful monoliths
The heart wants what the heart wants
this reads like a muppet sketch
see? See!??!
You're not wrong
Could you imagine making your own movie, making like 20 million dollars, and then going āawesome, now to install a DVD duplicating machine in my house and personally burn copies by hand like a medieval monk preserving sacred textsā
Like I need people to understand the mental image here of a multimillionaire internet creator personally overseeing DVD production in his own house like heās running an underground bootleg operation out of a basement in 2007.
Itās weirdly charming because thereās something very āold internetā about it, this energy of āI made a thing, and now I will physically hand it to people myself like an artisan at a craft fair.ā
The man really said: āThe future of cinema is me standing next to a humming disc burner at 2amā
And like... I can't help but believe he's onto something
Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as āproblematicā in class and our professor was like, āThatās cool, but āproblematicā doesnāt really mean anything. It means that the thing youāre describing has a problem, and in and of itself thatās not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else itās not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like youāre trying to say that this is bad, but you donāt want to say ābad.ā Is that right?ā
So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the ābadā thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, āIām uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.ā
Once we stopped calling things āproblematicā and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, āthatās racistā or āthatās misogynisticā or āew capitalism grossā out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, āUhhh... Iām not sure whatās so bad?ā and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.
Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I canāt help but think of this professor being like, āGood starting point, now letās get specific.ā I think when we have to commit to saying āthatās ___ā it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever weāre claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes itās art, and it should be full of problems, because thatās what art is.
livin' la vida where the hell have you been, loca?

This was actually really fun!
Anyway, donāt forget Iām still raising money to test a bunch of things in a suit of armour:
Blumineck is trying to fun a video series doing fun and serious historical and fantasy testing in fitted plate armour.
Memo to everybody :
Never be afraid to recycle an idea you had for a WIP you abandoned. Sometimes the idea needs a different set of characters or a different setting.
An addition:
Never be afraid to recycle an idea you had for a project you already completed. Sometimes ideas really are just that good and deserve to be used more than once.
Don't be afraid to use the same recipe to make a new cake
This man needs to be hunted for sport.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE MADE HIMSELF ONE TOO
My boyfriend, again blending together fanfiction tropes: So what if when you finally find your soulmate, thatās when you discover if youāre alpha or omega, right?
Me, hands shaking as I frantically search for pen & paper: KEEP TALKING
Me: Seems hellish
Boyfriend: So does being an ant person
Me: Again, baby, theyāre not ants
Boyfriend: YES THEY ARE. They communicate via pheromonesā LIKE ANTS.
Me: So back to the soulmate thingā¦.
Boyfriend: You could trick them into following orders and thinking theyāre dead by spraying them with a spritz bottle. I think they need a queen.
Me: So back to the soulmate thingā¦. Seems hellish!
Boyfriend: Not really. If being around the other person is what triggers the changes, if you want to go back to normalā¦ all you need to do is leave.
Me, writing: (You found your soulmate. Itās changing you in scary ways. All you need to do is leaveā¦ how difficult would it be to leave? What pressures exist to stay?)
Boyfriend: So these ant-peopleā
Me: OMEGAVERSE IS NOT ANTS!!!!!!

Yuri Gagarin, the hobbyist photographer, at home with his wife.
Yuri Gagarin being identified only as an amateur photographer and not literally the first human in space has me on the floor
This is a good reminder that there is a lot of texture and complexity to people; every human contains lots of aspects that would be completely unrelated if not for the fact that the same person experiences them. Itās easy to forget this, and compress the people you meet into a caricature; even celebrities usually end up being famous for one thing alone. But even something as glorious as the first space travel by a living human does not fully encompass a life.
This, too, is Yuri.
āhow do you write again after a long break?ā you just start. thatās the horror of it. you just. start. and then the story opens its eyes.
I love this because like 99% of this kind of paleoart is patriarchal Man the Hunter type fantasies but these guys are just like āfuck it weāre outta hereā

have you ever met anyone that believes the earth is flat
have you ever met anyone that believes the earth is flat?
Yes
No
me, quietly whispering to the ao3 page of an author who doesnāt even know I exist: I am obsessed with you
me, whispering to the ao3 page of an author who hasnāt updated anything in four years: I think about you often and I hope youāre alright
me, whispering to the ao3 page of an author who wrote one life altering banger and nothing else: I hope your pillow is cool and your skin is clear and you find money in a forgotten jeans pocket
me, whispering to every single person on this post: please leave one singular comment saying literally any of that
