here's a nice idea

I am addicted to information

I don't know how to articulate this well, but I really fucking hate the way a lot of thin writers write fat characters. Like how men write women "breasting boobily" there is something so dehumanizing about how fat characters are often written. "He waddled", "he lumbered", the writer of the book I'm reading always mentions this characters "fleshy hand" when he does something with his hand. Like, we already know that he's fat. There is no need to describe everything he does as "doing it fatly".

the persecution of lefthandedness is insane to think about because it was so intense for so long, in some places still is, without any clear profit motivation. sheer love of the game. as late as the 70s at least they were smacking my stepdad's hands for it with a wooden ruler at school, to this day he's in weird ambidexterity situation where he's not great with either side and notably clumsy due to poor hand-eye coordination. just wtf

the thing about media literacy is that understanding why the author chose to specify that the curtains are blue is the same skill set as understanding that the way the author characterizes all black characters as angry or all chinese characters as meek and silent is racist. it is the same skill set as being able to identify when a news source is biased or when someone is feeding you propaganda. the ability to ask "why did this person choose to present this premise in this specific way?" is a critical skill in a world full of misinformation. why are the curtains blue? maybe it's a characterization detail. maybe it's extraneous worldbuilding. why is this character written as being right all the time? maybe you're intended to disagree with them. maybe it doesn't matter. maybe you should still ask why.

the most fun part of writing poetry is writing it. the least fun part is once it's written and it's the worst thing anyones ever written. the second most fun part is 2 years later when it turns out actually it aint so bad babeyyyy

ontologically evil? no you misheard me i said im etymologically evil. i'm changing the root of words for personal gains you cannot fathom.

favorite type of word: names of genres that tell you nothing without context. literary fiction. popular music. interactive fiction. lets invent a new genre called experiencable media

I don't care how much AI chatbots do to discredit use of the em-dash and the using-too-many-hyphens-to-describe-complex-concepts-in-noun-form, they will never take these things from me. I have been overusing em-dashes in my online writing for longer than some of my followers have been alive. I did not get the em-dash from ChatGPT, ChatGPT got the em-dash from me. Molon labe
