The other morning I was admiring my coffee cup with different birds on it. I looked over at my boyfriend and said “Did you know that birds have different beak styles according to their primary diet?”

He then replied, “Yeah that’s one of the biggest observations Darwin made on the Galápagos Islands that led to further discoveries of evolution and natural selection.”

I think I fell in love with him all over again after that.

i really really hate how normalized it is to tell people to kill themselves

"kill yourself" ❌❌❌❌❌

This is the best tag I've ever received on a post, I think

how many followers do you have

wouldn't you like to know

There are 2 types of fanfic:

fanfic that I like

fanfic that is none of my business

not to be a fandom old again, but i'm actually surprised that people are surprised when they get in trouble for selling fanart or fanfiction or anything. that used to be very, very understood. people used to preface their fanfiction with disclaimers reminding everyone that they aren't earning money and please don't sue because it was an actual risk.

I dunno where I'm going with this, and I'm not trying to start discourse, just, like, the idea of monetizing fanwork is very new, relatively speaking, and it's strange to me that people get so mad when someone says they can't, I guess, because this used to be Known.

if you're writing and find yourself thinking 'this is too weird/gross/offputting/esoteric/ambitious/catered to my specific interests + sure to push away a broader audience' that is the devil speaking and it is a lie. you are already firmly on the right path and you need to double down

If you’re writing and you recognize that it’s ‘weird/gross/offputting/esoteric/ambitious/catered to my specific interests + sure to push away a broader audience’ KEEP FUCKING GOING!

Don’t just double down, recognize it - call it out in your writing, and make sure everyone who reads it KNOWS IT! Just because it is, doesn’t mean it’s BAD, in fact, it’s amazing that you even noticed it was! That means you have self-awareness and can now do things on purpose, and it’s great

"If I were orpheus I wouldn't look back"

But we look back everyday- rechecking emails, making sure a friend is still behind you, checking to see if you remebered to pick up your keys. It's second nature, a habit of care.

It was second nature for him too. He looked back, not out of weakness, but love. For what is love, if not to look back?

there’s a big difference between “i’m sad because a character i was emotionally invested in was killed off” and “this character’s death served no purpose, was used for shock value, and is the product of bad writing and i’m upset about that”

the girl you just accused of "not having any hobbies" has actually been getting really into laying alone in the dark and obsessively ruminating on her abjection past and present lately

At some point "fanfic can be as good as professional writing" became "fanfic should be as good as professional writing" and that's caused major damage to fandom spaces.

‘Hands weaving magnetic-core memory, IBM, Poughkeepsie, New York,’ 1956. Photograph by Ansel Adams.

My mother used to make computer cores as a "work from home" side business. As a child I got spending money via un-winding the ones that failed testing so that the magnetic center could be re-used. I got between $0.05 and $0.25 per core depending. Mom got more for the finished ones, of course, though I don't know how much. Her sister was an expert, and did the more complicated kind, some of which ended up in satellites and/or were used by NASA!

They were all done by hand using a kind of treadle-operated frame with a little (crochet!) hook to pull the wires around the cores. The people making them were mostly housewives who did this as a side-job in the 80s and 90s. I don't know if it's still done that way anywhere in the USA today, but the history of computing and space exploration is littered with "women's work" like this.
