FYI About this Blog
Me: LauraBWrites (they/them), on ao3 and bluesky under the same username. What do I post: mostly Star Wars reblogs, sometimes politics, sometimes writing resources, occasionally I talk about my writing — both the fanfiction and the original work. I'm trying to up the portion of talking I do, not just reblogging. Cooking stuff goes on the sideblog: @culinary-vagabond

Look, I get why people do think that somehow Solarpunk is mostly an aesthetic. Because a bunch of folks really focused so much on it as an aesthetic - especially here on tumblr.
But for heaven's sake. The people who think that "actually, a solarpunk world without a deep conspiracy and capitalist exploitation is actually like super pro-capitalist" are just... like, the entire point of the genre is imagining a world that exists outside of capitalism. That is literally what makes it radical.
Folks who want to imagine a world that still is capitalist literally are the kind of people who maintain capitalism. Because the system relies on telling you that there cannot be anything else. And if you say "a solarpunk future without capitalism is unrealistic" then you basically say: "they are right - that cannot happen, there is never gonna be anything better than capitalism."
A lot of folks also claim that Solarpunk is ecofascist. Not realizing that this genre largely goes back to Latin American indigenous movements.
And the folks who claim that this is all rooted in capitalism also do not seem to understand that the entire fucking reason why we have not gone renewable, despite having had the technology, is that capitalism does not want it. Too many billionaires depend on their fossil fuel related assets. A bunch of billionaires would loose their billionaire status if we switched to renewables. Too much of the economy is tied to fossil fuels.
And this is why "actually, we can move onto a post-capitalist society, and live without there being a secret conspiracy" is more politically radical than any stupid "oh yes, solarpunk should just been a prettier, greener form of cyberpunk".

I finally finished this quilt top, about a million hand sewn hexagons. It’s about 40” x 40” and will become a quilt for Welcome Blanket, an organization that gives handmade blankets to immigrants to welcome them into the USA. I started it the day Trump got elected, but it took me this long because I had carpal tunnel syndrome and surgeries for it.
I wanted the colors to look like a bowl of jelly beans.

identifying a maladaptive coping mechanism is so bitter sweet like that’s great now i know what i need to stop doing. but that’s literally my something
Honestly? The concept of bby Jango just going "you know what? Fuck you!" *holds up Toddler Of Dire Prophecy to speak some sort of Cursed Future into existence(presumably)* is just? So? On brand for him?
Toddler Obi-Wan having a GREAT time! Meeting so many new people! Uppies! Yaaaaay! Meanwhile JANGO is loving this sweet new "actually, fuck off and die maybe?" Final trump card he now possesses. VERY 10 year old of him.
Jaster is probably like "pls. Son. Pls give back the tiny adorable cursed baby. You can't keep him." "But I wanna! We bonded! He does tricks!" "Sweetie, he's not a strill."
*twitchy, feral Jedi Temple Guard LOOMING in the background here to retrieve their STOLEN BABY CHILD* 👁👁🔪
i’m not procrastinating. i’m allowing the story to ferment. like kimchi. or a crime scene
I asked one of my (male) friends to stop using the phrase “man up” and he has been using “fortify” for the past two weeks instead and it’s just a little thing but honestly it makes a difference
and tbh it’s also pretty funny when I start to deflate in the library and he leans over and goes “FORTIFY”
Dude, fortify is bangin’. That makes things like you’re some kind of RPG character. Fortify is way better than “man up.”
Happy 10th anniversary to Fortify

cable belt chain; my newest piece of robot “gear”! i made it using only found or thrifted materials, and i think it came out great :]
Coming into a fandom late
Coming into a fandom early and watching it become an angry clusterfuck
Being in a dormant fandom that suddenly comes alive again after a new book/movie
Don’t forget about those who come in the midst of a fandom war.
Accuracy at its best
Being in a fandom and not even knowing there’s a war going on…

When You’re Not In The Fandom But You’re Nosy AF
When you get into a fandom only to discover it’s dead
This gets better every time I see it.
@fuboos-mess
Being in a dead fandom…
Or being in such a tiny fandom that it feels like youre the only one
The accuracy hurts.
Being in a fandom that had a shit ending.
When you’ve been fangirling long enough, you’ve experienced all of the above.
Being in a fandom meant for kids.
This just gets better..
@mi-kleos
When you realize that joining the fandom has ruined you
Fandom hell in general

Being in a fandom which has so many antis
I’ve probably reblogged this before, but that was before these great additions.
Being in a fandom that actually works together
Why is this so true? All of it.
being in a fanbase but all your mutuals suddenly turn into Kpop blogs
I always enjoy it when a good post comes around again and has been improved by the reblogs like the years for a fine wine.
Being in a fandom when shit goes down and everyone has different opinions
When you are in a fandom and don’t care for others people opinion…..even if they are right…(believe me, I have met several of those)
Being in a fandom you never meant to join
I love this. and it’s gotten better
After abandoning a fandom you’re still a little bit emotionally invested in….
All of these are me. Lol
Being in a fandom on Tumblr

ive invented (note: dubious claim) something i call the bear diet which is mostly fruits and vegetables with fish as the main protein source and something like once a month you eat a few hyperprocessed foods of your liking because that is when you, the bear, raid a dumpster in the suburbs
WIP Game
RULES: Make a new post with the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous, and tag as many people as you have WIPs (or as many as you like). People send an ask with the title that most intrigues them, then you post a snippet or tell them something about it.
Thanks for the tag @hawthornsword!
WIPs are a funny term for me, especially since I recently finished a fic and it's currently posting. I guess I mentally don't count anything without some words on the page somewhere but most aren't in active consideration, just there to get as much of the idea out as I could and I'll get back to it eventually. Or not. Other things tend to be in more active thoughts or actual work. But anyway, I'll list everything I have something on the page for, even if it's less than 500 words (I'm guessing on length here).
Original
A Quiet Revolution A Murder for Hire
Star Wars
End the War / Maul Chosen One Swap Falling through Time "True Love" Kiss

being a jack of all trades is dope as fuck honestly. it's like I'm doing crop rotation inside my own brain
Lots of writing advice on tumblr. It's been years since I've written fiction in a serious way, but I did write a couple of (bad) novels in my early 20's, a bunch of short stories, and also a few hundred thousand words of LARP writing, and I do have a bacherlor's of science in creative writing (lol).
From what I can tell, there are only three universally applicable pieces of writing advice:
Read a lot (mandatory)
Show your writing to people (mandatory)
Have something wrong with you in a way that is impossible to articulate except by writing a novel (optional)
