I actually love the Louis and Regina subplot because it really is a continuation of the way Louis has always treated women, as a source of emotional labour that he can throw money at and have them make him feel better. It’s Miss Lily all over again, it’s “paying a whore to sit in a room and talk with him”. Making Claudia was always about Louis’ feelings under the pretence of saving her from the fire. He wants to save Regina from poverty but it’s all to make himself feel better. She sees through him but she’s so broke that she can’t afford to say no

Come to think of it, it really is insane that my entire country is burning alive and literally no one in the rest of the world cares. Thousands of Indians are dying every day from the heat, it's 45+ degrees in multiple areas, the government couldn't give two fucks, we're getting severe warnings and red alerts, and not a soul outside of South Asia is speaking about it because why would you ever care about brown people

please keep talking about how Becky from Maryland doesn't like the rising gas prices. It's clearly the more pressing issue.

USA folks, that is a consistent temperature range hitting 113°. Death Valley temperatures. In Banda, it hovered between 116°-118° (47°-48° C) for a week straight.

This has been happening all month with little to no international media attention. Here are a few organizations you can check out for resources or to support:

ActionAid India

SEEDS India

god i'm so glad louis killing bruce was as fucked up and empty and hollow as it was. i've been thinking about this moment for years now and like you can't bring her back. you can't go back in time and choose her over lestat and you wouldn't anyway because she was right and it's always been about him. you can't be there for her when it counted. lestat can't be there for her when it counted even though he understood her pain in the most direct sense. no matter how much bruce deserved to die killing him does absolutely nothing for claudia now and was never really going to be anything more than a consolatory gesture for the benefit of the people who weren't there for her when it counted. she was right. it's never been about her.

Batman redesign except he leans way more into the "creature of the night" theme. The lenses are reflective. The cowl has teeth. The ears rotate to better capture sound. If he loses his grappling gun, you might even see him scamper up the side of a building with the retractable claws on his gloves and boots like some overgrown arachnid.

His cryptid factor is 100% higher. Naturally, people are terrified of him....right up until he starts patrolling with a beaming kid dressed in primary colors.

One might assume that what “TV prose” losses in depth it would make up for in speed. That the stripped-down text would move at a quicker pace, perhaps one more geared to the modern short-attention-span mind. Perhaps, in theory. But in practice, TV brain prose can be more cluttered with filler sentences because writers describe more than they need to. The occasional montage aside, most TV scenes play out in real time. If a character gets a glass of water, they perform every movement—opening the cabinet, pulling out the glass, turning on the faucet, filling the glass, etc. So, writers who are jotting down a TV scene in their mind likewise enumerate these actions. “Farah got up and walked over the cabinet, reached inside, and withdrew a tall glass. She then turned on the faucet and filled the glass. She took a sip.” Such banal movements are tedious in prose. Unless there is a point to the tedious description—I dunno, this is a Martian carefully studying human movements?—a simple “she got a glass of water” is probably all you need.

Remember too that actors perform small actions that have may have no real effect in a given scene because it would be boring to watch actors stand still arms at their side while delivering lines. Movement, even pointless movement, has a use in visual media. We like to watch actors do things. Prose is different. In prose, you can simply skip all the pointless actions. You can write just the dialogue, or fill space between dialogue with interiority, setting description, flashbacks, or whatever you want. Perhaps you don’t need even “she got a glass of water” unless that detail is important for the plot, themes, or characters.
