Everything Will be OK @fiendish-fiend - Tumblr Blog

I am thinking about writing a fic that starts with Declan doubling down on hos failing marriage, Cameron distancing herself from him, and them both going on journeys that reveal to them taht they have both been unhappy for a long time. I want to write about them outgrowing their dying relationships, finding eachother. Of course they will be drama involving Rupert being in love with Taggie, Patrick beefing with his dad over Cameron, and Maude being selfish. I waslo want Declan to confront that he has been a shit father. What do you all think?

I just read The Priory, Hamilton Terrace, and The Sligo Shore Inn by SnowOntheMountain on ao3. Now I need need a future fic where they go public and another one where they get married.

how am I supposed to live with the knowledge that the weird "A Mule Mom's Story" irish vanner horse embryo transfer cartoon on youtube was based on a real living vanner horse and real mules at a real farm, in Ocala, 30 minutes south of my house in my shrimp study area.

what do you mean a business literally selling frozen irish vanner horse semen on the internet inexplicably had a cartoon produced to advertise their semen sales and equine surrogacy, which I then bumped into on youtube in the 2010s while looking at artists' animation reels. what do you mean the real-life horse semen farm sits on top of the charred and terraformed remains of the ancient shrimp forest, which I have spent the last eight years painstakingly reconstructing from leftover scraps of wild space.

what do you mean I have to get up tomorrow knowing all of this now

before north central Florida was the "horse capital of the world", it was a rare ecosystem called Hydric Hammock, with networks of small temporary freshwater ponds under an oak and palmetto canopy. every year more and more of it gets converted into fancy horse people pasture (or buildings, but around Ocala it's mostly the former) and the temporary ponds are either filled in or made permanent and stocked with fish to control mosquitos. The heavy seasonal rain and limestone soil which once supported this ecosystem now grows lots of grass for horses. here is unconverted hydric hammock versus new pasture, on opposite sides of the same road near McIntosh:

this area is home to a number of rare plants and animals adapted to the semi-wetland conditions. I study fairy shrimp, which survive the dry periods as eggs and hatch in response to seasonal rain. they can survive drought and wildfire no problem, but cannot survive habitat modification. At least three species only live in central Florida, and one is potentially extinct. probably more species are hiding in other parts of the US south like Georgia and Alabama, but not a lot of people are looking for them, and obviously there's very little money in it.

Here is an adult Dendrocephalus proeliator, a central Florida endemic species which I co-described in 2019:

I've been burned too many times by the academia industry to want to risk finding an advisor and doing a thesis, like I am expected to. People can be cruel and I don't want any more bad experiences. So I do research entirely on my own as a hobby. For eight years I have been tracking the shrimp in whatever little pieces of semi-natural land have not yet been terraformed. maybe someday I will be able to do more, but for now I just document what I find.

anyway, that's what I mean by "ancient shrimp forest".

Apparently a lot of people get dialogue punctuation wrong despite having an otherwise solid grasp of grammar, possibly because they’re used to writing essays rather than prose. I don’t wanna be the asshole who complains about writing errors and then doesn’t offer to help, so here are the basics summarized as simply as I could manage on my phone (“dialogue tag” just refers to phrases like “he said,” “she whispered,” “they asked”):

“For most dialogue, use a comma after the sentence and don’t capitalize the next word after the quotation mark,” she said.

“But what if you’re using a question mark rather than a period?” they asked.

“When using a dialogue tag, you never capitalize the word after the quotation mark unless it’s a proper noun!” she snapped.

“When breaking up a single sentence with a dialogue tag,” she said, “use commas.”

“This is a single sentence,” she said. “Now, this is a second stand-alone sentence, so there’s no comma after ‘she said.’”

“There’s no dialogue tag after this sentence, so end it with a period rather than a comma.” She frowned, suddenly concerned that the entire post was as unasked for as it was sanctimonious.

“If you want to break up dialogue to insert an action"—she gesticulated wildly to emphasize her point—"then you use em dashes around the action.”

“You can also break up dialogue by placing the em dash inside the quotation mark, but—” She took a moment to catch her breath. “—you must treat the action like a sentence. It must be capitalized with an end punctation.”

“When humans speak, we often get sidetracked (and share information that may not be all that pertinent, a secret, or something we probably shouldn’t be talking about). Use parenthesis in your dialogue when you want to demonstrate this.”

***

“If you’re writing a long monologue, then it likely needs to be broken into multiple paragraphs. Because one long paragraph of dialogue that takes up an entire page or multiple pages is very hard on the eyes.

“So conclude the previous dialogue paragraph without a quotation mark, and start the next dialogue paragraph with a quotation mark. This shows the reader that the same person is still speaking, without the need for additional action or dialogue tags.”

We are bleeding. Our children are starving. Even our doctors are tortured.

In Gaza, nothing is sacred anymore. Even medical workers are abducted, tortured, and denied care — while we, the mothers, carry our wounded children with bare hands, hoping someone, somewhere, still cares.

My child is one of the thousands injured by Israeli airstrikes. He is in desperate need of treatment outside Gaza. There are no hospitals. No medicine. No future unless you help.

I beg you — as a mother, as a human please don’t look away. Donate. Speak out. Share our pain.

So one of my tweets kinda blew up. :v

This reminds me of the time that a Hungarian doctor called Ignaz Semmelweiss noticed that the bulk of patients in a maternity ward treated by doctors were dying horribly, while the ones treated by nurses were more likely to survive.

He figured out that this was because the doctors were dissecting corpses inbetween delivering babies, while the nurses weren’t, and came up with his controversial “hey, why don’t we all wash our filthy, filthy hands before sticking them in a woman?” theory.

The result, short term, was that the mortality rate on this one maternity ward decreased by a ridiculous amount. They went from “write your will before you come here, because you’re probably gonna die” to “we’re not 100% sure, but you’ll probably live”.

The result, long term, was that Semmelweiss was hated by absolutely everybody, lost his reputation and had his career suffer terribly.

His eventual reward was that eventually people finally started sashimg their hands with soap before operations, history remembers him as a misunderstood hero, and the instinctive angry and defensive reaction so many people give whenconfronted with new ideas that conflict with their established view of the world is now called ‘the Semmelweiss reflex’.

Because some people care more about themselves not being wrong than they do about things in general being right.

Extremely Important Update: in April 2023 the World Bird Sanctuary had an orphaned eagle chick in need of care, so they decided to see if Murphy could live up to his parental ambitions.

He successfully raised the chick, which is now thriving with the other juvenile eaglets!

Congrats Murphy, you made it happen through sheer determination.

(Pictures are from the Facebook page of the World Bird Sanctuary; I can’t link them directly because I don’t have a FB account and the site is a nightmare to interact with if you’re not logged in, constantly resetting and kicking you to registration pages.)
