Have you ever been working on writing a scene in a story (or more specifically a fanfic) that you expected to go one way, but then your muse for a certain character insists on doing something that just totally derails the entire plan? But like, suddenly you can't envision it going any other way, so you just go with it.

Yeah, like, I love working on this one post Resident Evil 6 passion project fanfic I've been sporadically working on writing for over a decade, (started it in September of 2014) when I actually get inspiration to be able to write. But oh my gosh, writing certain characters that canonically don't like each other together in a scene, where one of them is a little shit who canonically likes to provoke the other... Scenes can derail so fast.

I've honestly been struggling with this scene for years, and it's stalled my writing progress on it for so freaking long. I know exactly what I want to happen after this scene, and I've been dying to write it for AGES. I've just been so stuck on this one part that's going to inform how the next part goes, that I've been unable to write anything that comes after. I finally sat down and just forced myself to slog through it while finishing watching a walkthrough of 9 last night. I got through it though, and now actual progress is happening, and I'm pleased with myself. Despite the complete derailment my Jake muse caused.

By the way, if you think Piers should have lived at the end of 6, and want to read the 11 chapters I've already published then end up in unfinished (but slowly progressing) story hell, here's a link:

Ayoo just to preempt the inevitable dumb takes we’re about to start seeing;

I am PRO-WOOL

I am PRO-LEATHER

I am PRO-BEES

Fuck the idea of replacing durable, sustainable animal products with cheap, flimsy plastic that doesn’t bio-degrade. Agave nectar and other artificial sweeteners are expensive, labor-intensive, and destroy the environment to be farmed.

Do not buy into pernicious marketing campaigns pushed by dickhead organizations trying to stay relevant, like PETA.

[marzipanandminutiae]

“but the industry-”

listen there is a huge difference between an industry with problems that can be made sustainable and more humane, and an industry that cannot, given current technology, continue to the present degree without destroying our planet

[oakenroots]

Wool - Contrary to what bullshit mongers like PETA would have you believe, wool is one of the most ethical materials humans have ever worked with. Happy sheep make better wool, experienced shearers seldom nick their sheep, and older sheep produce more wool, meaning its best to keep them alive and treat them well for many years.

Leather - one cow makes SO MUCH leather. One deer makes SO MUCH leather. Well-treated leather lasts almost FOREVER. Even animals with small skins like rabbits, a pair of well oiled rabbit leather gloves will last decades. Every animal usually made into leather is also a meat animal, so it’s more sustainable to get more than one product from a single ethically butchered animal (humane kills make less punctures in the hide!) Leather can be tanned with natural resources like brains and doesn’t require treatment with chemicals that seep into the groundwater!

Cotton: Cotton is a fucking plant, it burns. The growing and harvesting of cotton is rather water intensive but it IS possible to sustainably harvest and reuse the water spent in the cleaning process to reduce the ecological footprint of the crop. It burns clean, it cuts clean, it’s sturdy, and there are 1000 ways to weave it to change its properties.

Bees & Honey: yes yes, the european honey bee is an invasive species, we know that. But honey has been cultivated by humans for just about as long as there have been humans, and they 100% choose to be cultivated. Like bees can and will leave if they’re not treated and maintained well. They understand that humans protect and clean the hives, and often become familiar with their keepers, choosing to walk on and investigate them instead of acting defensive. If animal welfare and consent are your concerns, honeybees aren’t the animals to worry about. If you, like me, are worried about native bee species, instead of creating hives you can strip an area of grass and leave an open area of clay and sandy soil to attract mason and digger bees to nest in the spring. They will happily coexist with honey bees as long as you plant the native keystone species the native bees rely on (like indian blanket flower, partridge pea, native violets in my area) as well as the high nectar plants that honeybees prefer (like roses, sunflowers, bee balm and cone flowers). Nature is actually really adaptable and accommodating of the human urge to cultivate plants and animals, and the idea that nature is ‘dead’ rather than ‘neglected’ is something that corporations want you to believe so you don’t oppose them spraying pesticides every 15 feet.

I do think how you react to 6 7 is a good litmus test over whether you'll be a cranky old person who will continue the stupid cycle of "kids these days". but also we do need to be educating the youth about history and how the two numbers have been in a fear based relationship because 7 8 9

dandelions are magic. literally tiny suns in the grass that turn into the moon and then the stars when you blow on them. fucking insane.

[doodle-devil]

Fucking insane

[alienpupy]

holy shit

[grandhighmilf]

(ID: a colorful drawn comic about dandelions. The first panel shows yellow flowers and says “dandelions are magic. Literally tiny suns in the grass”. The next panel shows the puffy version of dandelions and says “that turn into the moon”. The last panel shows a child blowing a dandelion and the seeds scattering. It says “and then the stars.” End ID)

Tag yourself as this list of “bad art” features, according to a twitter fascist

[dragonheart2497]

“Never Forget” until the new target is those that they disagree with.

Edit: please watch this video essay by Jacob Geller. It speaks on really important points as to how “bad art” is a weapon of fascism and how it reflects the Degenerate Art Exhibition(s)

[geopsych]

Here’s a video so you can hear the water and the thrushes. I took it for you because you couldn’t be there. <3

[geopsych]

Maybe a good day to reblog this one for anyone who needs to take a breath.

[feluka]

say it with me: deserts aren't inherently bad. deserts are very important and are home to many ecosystems. you want an unhealthy, over-exploited desert to become a healthy, thriving desert. you don't want an unhealthy, over-exploited desert to become a forest. deserts and forests are distinct, separate biomes that are both indispensable. you want to see them both at their best. and a desert at its best doesn't look like a forest at its best. they're each beautiful in their own way.

[whereserpentswalk]

"Greening the desert" should carry as many negative connotations as "bulldozing the forest".

[jester-nonconforming]

People still tend to lump JK Rowling in with the category of ~problematic artists~ and I need everyone to understand that is not the problem with her. She is not comparable to anyone who wrote a piece of fiction you hate, or someone who made rude comments in 2015 and has since learned better.

She is far more like Elon Musk. She is a radicalized person with an extreme amount of social and financial power, and for YEARS she has been using that power to try to influence her government into hurting vulnerable people, on purpose. And she has succeeded. THAT is the problem with her, and THAT is why spending money on her books is so dangerous, not because her books aged badly.

Critiquing her work is fine, of course (I personally was never a fan so I really don’t care) but you NEED to understand that fiction is not the main issue here. And I truly think acting like she’s the same as the rest of any giant list of ~problematic creators of the week~ waters down how dangerous she is.

man people really just say stuff on here huh

[lame-kid-on-couch]

Noooo haha don't spread racist ideals and colonizer propaganda by idolizing white european aesthetics above all else and denying the life and accomplishments of native peoples on their own lands

[brehaaorgana]

People have been living in the downtown area of Tucson, Arizona for at least 4,500 years. The greater Santa Cruz river valley has been occupied by humans for 12,000 years.

You see this?

That's not a river. That's the South Canal in Mesa, Arizona (Phoenix metro area).

This is a view of the East and South canals. At least half of all the Phoenix metro canals were originally built by the Hohokam (from roughly 200-1400 CE), and are still in use (restored) today.

Phoenix, Arizona actually has more miles (kilometers) of Canals total than both Venice and Amsterdam. No, really. Phoenix has about 180 miles of canals, many of which are built on ancient canal foundations.

below is an aerial view photo taken in the late 1930's of one branch of Phoenix's canal systems:

Also have the "Montezuma Castle," if you need a castle:

I don't need to look at some 12th century European castle to see age.

[olowan-waphiya]

also the very land itself you live on was carefully stewarded and cared for for thousands of years before colonists showed up and thought it was a beautiful new world of pristine wilderness for them to pillage.

we keep learning about older and older examples of indigenous peoples presence here on this continent of Turtle Island—one of the oldest mummies in the world was found here in Nevada, over 10,000 years old

Scientists reveal 10,000-year-old mummy is Native American ancestor

DNA testing discredits theory Nevada’s ‘Spirit Cave mummy’ is of Paleoamerican heritage

they also fairly recently ‘discovered’ evidence of a massive city in the amazon rainforest

Huge ancient lost city found in the Amazon

The city was built 2,500 years ago but may have been abandoned after a volcanic eruption.

“The city was built around 2,500 years ago, and people lived there for up to 1,000 years, according to archaeologists.

It is difficult to accurately estimate how many people lived there at any one time, but scientists say it is certainly in the 10,000s if not 100,000s.”

We’ve been here. And who even knows how much evidence and knowledge of even older examples were destroyed or stolen.

I know it’s not hard to point out reactionaries hypocrisy when it comes to like safe spaces or hug boxes or whatever but genuinely how much of an echo chamber do you have to exist in for you to think this is a reasonable thing to say

I reread Interview with the Vampire a month ago, & the only option is to kill this abusive, pedophillic, narcissistic sociopath. I first read it when I was 14 and I completely MISSED a lot of the shit he pulled. Did you realize he molests the chest of the 7 year old dead boy Claudia gifts him? Louis is even worse with the pedo shit. As an adult who is a survivor of narcissistic & sociopathic abuse, I IMMEDIATELY recognized him for the abuser he is. Never should have read Vampire Lestat, especially not as a teenager, because all it was, was him charming the audience with his words, and let him give excuses for his abuse of Louis and Claudia. Don’t even get me STARTED on how when I was a naive teenager I thought Claudia was the villain, or how much I hated her, because in the narrative, Louis, then Lestat, are given leave to call her evil, and the naive child I was listened to them. Only to go back as an adult and see that she was the true victim, that Lestat had MURDERED by the Theatre des Vampires, (whom he had influence over because he gave the theatre to them, but specifically Armand), to silence her.

Fuck Lestat, fuck Louis, and fuck Anne Rice for writing the books in a way that frames this abuser as some sort of hero, and lets him get away with calling his victim evil for standing up and fighting back against him.
