July Lessons 🎆

Aries: be fearless and let the thing you desire the most drive you. don’t hold back, don’t let anything stop you.

Taurus: let yourself become. let everything shape you into who you’re supposed to be and be proud of what it took to get you to this place you’re at now.

Gemini: the world could use more of your fierceness. don’t let anyone ever water you down into something that you’re not.

Cancer: the way you feel and move throughout life is important. without the deep thinkers like you, life would be bland and boring. embrace it.

Leo: bloom. grow. continue and flourish. you know who you are now isn’t going to be who you are in a year, let this growth inspire you.

Virgo: being unique and completely yourself is something the world will thank you for. don’t change yourself for other people.

Libra: let true love come into your heart. whether that be from people or passions, let it in. open yourself up, don’t assume you will always be left heartbroken.

Scorpio: finish what you started. it’s not worth it to give up now after how far you’ve come. you owe it to yourself to complete the things you want most.

Sagittarius: this new beginning will be scary and rocky, but it’s what you’ve always wished for. your start to a new season is here, it’s up to you to decide what you’ll do with it.

Capricorn: seek to learn and experience new things. you may have think you’ve seen and learned everything you ever will, but I promise you that you are not even close to your full potential.

Aquarius: embrace the fact that even though things may not be ideal or perfect, you are not where you once were. things will only continue to get better if you keep working at it.

Pisces: love yourself enough to admit your own faults and make yourself better from them. we don’t always know what we’re doing all the time, but there’s strength in admitting so.

why do these elites pretend to drink blood and worship the devil at gala parties, or spend a week in the forest worshiping moloch and mock sacrificing children while having orgies then get mad when people call them cultists and come up with conspiracy theories? if you ain’t evil, then stop doing weird evil shit, you fucking demons.

Do you think that sometimes Dum-E will just bop Tony on the forehead with his claw and the first time it happened Tony was like ??? since it seems like it came out of nowhere, but it keeps happening. If he crashes in the lab the bot will put a blanket on him then just bop him on the head, and Tony doesn’t say anything because it seems to please Dum-E. But if Tony is sad he just hears a beep and he turns around to see Dum-E charging at him full speed to bop him with his claw. Eventually he asks JARVIS and finds out the bot must have seen Rhodey or someone kiss him on the forehead and saw that it made him happy so that’s now his go-to way to cheer up his creator, and Tony definitely does not tear up hearing that his bot son is trying to give him a lil smooch to make him happy.

"How to find the right glasses for your face shape", oh, bullshit. You pick ones you think a hot scientist in a bad horror movie would wear and then you just go do whatever.

you’d be lying if he didn’t go all ‘just gimme a sec’ and comes back 3 seconds later with a fucking flying car that he made one night in his sLEEP

^^ 10/10 tony behavior

[postmodernmulticoloredcloak]

excellent. now imagine steve and bucky starting to make up things howard had promised them and tony desperately tries to invent those things as their requests get wilder and wilder, and it takes an embarrassingly long time for tony to realize they had been trolling him all along and howard had never conceived any of that stuff

[firechat]

Part of me feels like even after he finds out they are trolling, he keeps going because NOW it’s a challenge because they clearly keep making it more impossible and he’s not about to give up against two 80 year old children.

[ehtarwrites]

… didn’t Coulson have that car?

all I need is kind witches to live with in a small rainy village in some far away, beautiful and protected land, with bakery’s and farmers markets and a little dock filled with boats, and every clear full moon we talk about our craft and interactions with the faeries under a candlelit backyard porch, giggling and sipping warm soup

*******************************************************

Peter slips into the middle back seat of the Audi, as ordered. His hands shake as he pulls off his jacket, then hesitate at the hem of his shirt. 

Mr. Stark settles into the driver’s seat and twists to look back at him. He dips his chin to give Peter a stern look over his sunglasses. 

“Shirt. Pants,” Mr. Stark says, as if Peter might have forgotten the order he’d given not thirty seconds ago. Peter has the full intention of giving sass back. His mouth does not comply.

“Mr. Stark, sir, where’s…” what does he even call them, anymore? “…your other self?”

i always forget my grandma used to be a clown so it caught me the fuck off guard when she saw this

and no hesitation saying “oh it’s that creepy clown- oh he’s drinking that’s against clown code”

1. ARE YOU NOT GOING TO EXPLAIN YOUR GRANDMA’S PAST CLOWN CAREER? 2. WHAT’S CLOWN CODE??????????????

[brynwrites]

Not an Editing “Tip.”

(Just a tool that might help clean up your writing and create a faster paced reading experience.)

Removing excess words. If you don’t need particular words, why keep them?

Another crashing wave sends me into a sprawl, and I’m forced to use my tides a few more times to distance myself from the rocks.

I should drop down as deep[er] as I can manage [and] use the reef for cover.

I can’t tear my eyes away until he disappears fully from view.

A burst of lightning shows the outline[s] of the cliff side.

A loud thud from the port window makes me jump, drawing my full attention. -> I jump at a loud thud from the port window.

Showing instead of telling. Making the reader feel what the protagonist feels is almost always better than telling them the protagonist is undergoing something.

I can’t believe the sight I see. ->  My lungs catch painfully, a shocked squeak rising out.

Everything is slick and wet. -> The slick metal offers no hold for my wet hands. I clench my fingers until the ridges bite into my scales, shark teeth holding me in place. Agonizing.

Removing passive voice. Active voice is more engaging and should be always be used unless you have a specific reason not to use it for that sentence.

The rock is a muddled, dark brown, and I almost miss him amid the lofty coastline. -> I almost miss him against the muddled, dark brown rock, his body tiny amid the lofty coastline.

Her voice is strained and furious. -> Fury strains her voice.

The wound is closed again, but before it closed, enough blood seeped out that I now feel woozy and off kilter. -> The wound closed while I slept, but enough blood seeped out that my head still spin, my limbs heavy.

Always remember though: you have to do what works best for that particular moment. Some scenes require different strokes than others. Use your best judgement, and take pride in your personal writing style.

[ladyofthefanart]

Find your REAL Angel name

The Avengers getting thrown forward in time for some reason and it turns out that they’ve gone down in history as legends but, somewhat like the Greek Gods, all the information and facts about them is warped almost beyond recognition and they spend the entire time in the future just being offended by how incorrect everything is

[itsallavengers]

Steve: Okay so there is NO WAY they seriously think that the serum turned me into a FISH for seven hundreds years so I could survive under the fucking ice. And why the FUCK are they spelling my name as ‘Stiphin’ ??????

Tony: Well according to this history book I fucked my way through the entire population of New York and was the father of every second-generation superhero. Does that make me Zeus?

Thor, squinting at the drawings: Why do I look like Rapunzel

[itsallavengers]

History Professor: And, one of the most powerful heroes of all, called himself king of the insects. With eight arms & six eyes and the chosen name of Lord Peterson, this ruler once set an army of poisonous spiders upon his mortal enemy after finding out that she had killed his family and stolen the woman he loved. It is thought that the lands were infested with spiders for years after, as a warning to anyone who attempted to challenge him

Peter, 15 years old, remembering how he can’t even pick up a spider without screaming: I did what now

I did the being edgy and self-deprecating thing, it gets old. I wanna be soft and lovely and easily impressed. I wanna appreciate all the little things that make me happy the same way I’ve dwelled on every single thing that upsets me.
