this was on one of the Anne Rice writing method reblogs and its so good but i know people will take it the wrong way and i want to post it here to preserve and honor it. because theyre right, her writing IS mid. i really really enjoy her work but she is not particularly good at it. and i think that is the most important aspect of conceptualizing of yourself as a creative producer that is performing non-alienated work: how "good" it turns out to be has nothing to do with 1. how much of it you will sell 2. how much people will enjoy it 3. how MANY people will enjoy it and finally 4. the effort you put into making it. developing skill and taste are DIFFERENT tasks from the actual production. let this inspire you

We got the finest, most interesting Targaryen cast ever for barely 2 hours and will never see any of them again. I'm SICK.

In this economy you'll be lucky to retire to your nickels

Heyyyy

So I don't think I'm going to be writing anymore Pedro focused smut. I don't want to completely discount the notion, so I'm not abandoning this blog or deleting anything. I'm not leaving! I'm still very much writing, and I think I'll have something ready to post pretty soon. I'm going to focus on OC so I guess if you want to mentally edit any Pedro characters your choice not my male OC characters, you're more than welcome to. I'm doing more sapphic stuff right now so if that's not your jam, idk what to tell you.

I think I'm going to fire up a new blog, and then I'll share that here in case anyone is interested in reading my dirty, dirty (but not PPCU) smut.

if you don't do anything else today,

Please have a moment of silence for the people who were killed instead of freed when news of emancipation finally reached the furthest corners of the american south.

have another moment for the ledgers, catalogs, and records that were burned and the homes that were destroyed to hide the presence of very much alive and still enslaved people on dozens of plantations and homesteads across the south for decades after emancipation.

and have a third moment for those who were hunted and killed while fleeing the south to find safety across the border, overseas, in the north and to the west.

black people. light a candle, write a note to those who have passed telling them what you have achieved in spite of the racist and intolerant conditions of this world, feel the warmth of the flame under your hand, say a prayer of rememberance if you are religious, place the note under the candle, and then blow it out.

if you have children, sit them down and tell them anything you know about the life of oldest black person you've ever met. it doesn't have to be your own family. tell them what you know about what life was like for us in the days, years, decades after emancipation. if you don't know much, look it up and learn about it together.

This is Juneteenth.

white people CAN interact with this post. share it, spread it.

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

bringing a sort of "slavery is still alive and well in US prisons" vibe to the office Juneteenth post that my higher ups don't really like

[bewarethecircles]

Highly encourage anyone who hasn’t to read Are Prisons Obsolete by Angela Y. Davis! I was never a fan of prisons in the first place, but this text really fundamentally changed how I viewed them.
