Alright tell me in the tags, what’s Your Poem? That poem you heard once and it has dwelt within you ever since?

Took me years to understand that boredom is not the enemy of writing. It is the raw material. Every good idea i have ever had arrived during a walk with no podcast, a train with no phone, a shower where i just stood there. The moment i fill every silence with content i stop generating anything of my own. I am just processing other people's thoughts instead of having mine. The empty space is where the work comes from. Protecting the empty space is the actual job.

Give us room to grow and see how we flourish.

It's nice that loud noises don't stick to clothes like smells do. That would be really bad if they did.

I'm picturing an urban fantasy setting where people come home from rock concerts with their clothes still singing, where a person can be shooed out of the library because of a yelling argument that's already over, where walking past a construction site can ruin your entire day, where walking past a songbird can improve it immeasurably, where getting a song stuck in your head is nothing compared to getting one stuck in your clothes.

Do it scared but please don't do it hungry. Please don't do it dehydrated. It's gonna make it so much scarier. Please.

far far away idol would never happen now

"it's just stress" oh thank god, it's just the silent killer that slowly kills you, perfectly harmless, no need to worry

a party of adventurers that are all equally convinced that they are in completely different forms of media

the mage keeps giving smug glances in the direction they assume a camera is in. the fighter keeps getting indignant about missing attacks because of "bad dice rolls." the rogue is doubtful that a villain is gone for good because "nobody ever stays dead in comics." the paladin attributes fortune to "good rng." none of them have even considered that "tumblr post" was an option

Happy pride month specifically to folks on the asexual and aromantic spectrum who oftentimes feel isolated and left out of the conversation. You belong here as much as the rest of us and I hope that you are all loved in a way that is comforting to you.
