i know that “don’t harass people for being weird, they might be autistic!” is a fairly popular take on here. but as a Certified Autist, i’d like to add that harassing allistic and/or neurotypical people for being weird is also bad, and should not be done

and before you come in with “yeah, you never know who is and isn’t autistic, and you shouldn’t force people to out themselves!” i want to say two things: one, i agree. and two, even if you could magically avoid ever harassing a single autistic person, it still wouldn’t be okay to go after NTs for being weird. they’re people, janice. they’re allowed to be really invested in naruto

our beautiful pale blue dot welcomes you home!

I'm volunteering for a literary journal right now and there's two things I think you all should know.

1. Most people that submit to literary journals are cis white men. We know this because our journal has an anonymous survey about demographics for people that submit.

2. Most things that get submitted to the creative non fiction section are on the level of middle school "What I did over the summer" essays.

I cannot see the demographics of the people whose essays I'm reading, but guys, if you are wondering if you should submit your work to a literary journal or not, I promise you that just in terms of statistics there are a lot of mediocre cis white men and people in general confidently submitting weird crap that isn't literature to literature magazines. Do it. Submit your work. Please. If you want there to be more diversity in literature, be the diversity. Do it. Do it do it do it.

what-even-is-thiss

In general literary magazines want to include more diversity, but if poc, queer people, disabled people, etc. don't submit their work then they aren't gonna get more diverse because we just won't have the material necessary to get more diverse. Submit your work. Do it. Do it. Do it do it do it.

what-even-is-thiss

Here's a list of university run literary journals. Do it. Get published.

Many indie lit mags also welcome works from BIPOC and LGBTQIA creatives because the editorial staff themselves are in that demographic. Quarantine brought on the start of the SO many indie lit mags - it’s almost a golden age. Don’t be afraid to submit — there will always be so many niches and aesthetics that one will bound to be the one that fits your style.

There is so much work from marginalized narratives in litmags these days — people lament there is no representation in media, but that disregards the progress and diversity of the works of editors and writers who help make these litmags possible.

There is representation, and it is flourishing. They are waiting to be read.

The Lumiere Review compiles a list of submission opportunities every month, and it are always very useful:

Independent magazines are great too! I’m more familiar with the university journal scene so I appreciate this addition.

THE SHAPE OF WATER (2017) dir. Guillermo del Toro

bicolossus

These are the best tags @puddle–wonderful

aquadraco20

Good catch! Shape of the Water doesnt use modern day American sign language, but this was intentional. There were two ASL coaches who taught Sally Hawkins (the main actress) how to sign using period appropriate ASL to match the time period depicted in the film.

dear-ebony-rose

^^^ ALL of this!

marzipanandminutiae

no surprise there- it’s Guillermo del toro, who hired dialect coaches so specific for “upper-class Northeastern American c. 1901” and “northern British 19th-century upper-class person who was taught to speak more Posh at some point” that people accused the actors of Bad Accents

okay but PSA about rabies:

not all rabies victims will be foaming at the mouth. rabies isn't gonna be super obvious to those who don't know what to look for there is only one documented case of someone recovering from rabies

TELL TALE SYMPTOMS:

cat does not act aggressive but attempts to bite with no warning cat is off balance and falling over often cat is spinning in circles for no reason and /or has no sense of direction increased vocalization paralysis and seizures

You can pet the cat in Norway; you can pet the cat in Spain;

Austria and Sweden - Northern Europe, in the main,

In the United Kingdom, which as you know entails,

England Scotland and Northern Ireland and Wales,

You can pet the cat, the fox, the rat, and any of the geese -

You can pet anything that you can catch if you go to Greece.

You’re allowed to pet the Irish cats, and Luxembourg is on,

Anything in Finland, France, Italy and Taiwan!

The world is big and large and strange, and many countries are

Rabies-free and glad of it! Like Germany! Qatar!

Aotearoa’s rabies-free on account of rare mammalia,

But you’re also fine to pet the cat upon entry to Australia.

If in Japan you see a cat you may surely pet away -

You can pat the cat in Belgium, Iceland, and of course Norway.

There are other countries where this virus has no hold,

And if YOU want to rhyme them then you’ll win a star of gold.

On this planet there are many places where you can safely pet the cat,

But lyssavirus being widespread, you still shouldn’t pet a bat.

elodieunderglass

Me: nooooooooooooo it was only YESTERDAY, IN MY OWN HANDS, I very much HAD A LIST of rabies-free places FOR WORK -

Noooooooo!

In 2013, Taiwan, which had never before documented rabies, discovered its first cases of lyssavirus in the wild ferret-badger and therefore had to leave the WHO’s rabies-free list. That’s on me. do NOT pet the wild ferret-badger.

Thank you for the correction.

why does this have 32k notes? it’s just a picture of a knife in a ranch bottle, is there some unspoken joke that 32 thousand people share? what is going on here, i dont get it. it’s just a fucking picture of a knife in a ranch bottle. is there some spiritual connection people have to this picture? is there some ominous and mystical reasoning that this has 32 thousand notes? do people reblog this because it makes them look like some indie blogger? or is there just something funny to this? someone please explain

Discussing baby’s future

melodiusfaux

They are both doing the "I want" chitter. They very much want to get up, but they have a sleeping baby cuddling with them. They must endure, but they will not be silent about it

pb-dot

Well well well, kitties. Looks like you want to get up but there's a little cat on you so you can't. Very frustrating situation there, can't imagine the burden of being held down by a little adorable kittycat. Couldn't, as the kids say, be me.

A request for a friend. My sense of humor is broken to the point that I spent half the stream laughing at the reference picture even after finishing the doodle. It's not perfect but sharing it in hopes it will make someone's day a little bit better!
