Lean into the funny idiot archetype so that when you’re unexpectedly hypercompetent at something they give you The Look where you can see them reexamine their entire perception of you in confusion, respect and no small amount of fear, and when you keep playing funny idiot they will be forever wary of you. Let them find out, incidentally, that the jester keeps a knife under his hat, and never figure out how to deal with that because they won’t abandon their boxes.

i keep mine in my fanny pack :)

//I'm working on moving to a new RP blog (multi fandom multimuse), narrowing down the roster drastically for now, and introducing new characters to the lineup in general (been hyperfixated on Baldur's Gate, so yeah...).

Not quite to the point of sharing a promo yet, but if we're already mutuals and you want to go ahead and check out the new blog, hit me up on discord & I'll give you the link. ❤️

Shout-out to disabled people who aren’t “inspirational”, who are unemployed or stuck with a job they don’t like, who didn’t do well academically and/or had to drop out of school, who aren’t in a position to live and take care of themselves independently even if they would like to, who don’t “just get on with things without complaining”, whose lives didn’t work out in the way they were hoping for, who haven’t “overcome” their disability in the way that society tells us we’re supposed to. You exist, you’re worthwhile and you matter.

Doctors get all "Oh, where'd you hear about that? Dr. Google?" then you ask them about something you read in a peer reviewed journal they turn their monitor away from you to use Doctor Google.

Terry Pratchett started his career as a crypto-monarchist and ended up the most consistently humane writer of his generation. He never entirely lost his affection for benevolent dictatorship, and made a few classic colonial missteps along the way, but in the end you’d be hard pressed to find a more staunchly feminist, anti-racist, anti-classist, unsentimental and clear-sighted writer of Old White British Fantasy.

The thing I love about Terry’s writing is that he loved - loved - civil society. He loved the correct functioning of the social contract. He loved technology, loved innovation, but also loved nature and the ways of living that work with and through it. He loved Britain, but hated empire (see “Jingo”) - he was a ruralist who hated provincialism, a capitalist who hated wealth, an urbanist who reveled in stories of pollution, crime and decay. He was above all a man who loved systems, of nature, of thought, of tradition and of culture. He believed in the best of humanity and knew that we could be even better if we just thought a little more.

As a writer: how skillful, how prolific, how consistent. The yearly event of a new Discworld book has been a part of my life for more than two decades, and in that barrage of material there have been so few disappointments, so many surprises… to come out with a book as fresh and inspired as “Monstrous Regiment” as the 31st novel in your big fantasy series? Ludicrous. He was just full of treasure. What a thing to have had, what a thing to have lost.

In the end, he set a higher standard, as a writer and as a person. He got better as he learned, and he kept learning, and there was no “too late” or “too hard” or “I can’t be bothered to do the research.” He just did the work. I think in his memory the best thing we can do is to roll up our sleeves and do the same.

We really have lost the plot when it comes to pulp (by which I mean fiction that prioritizes the pleasure and enjoyment of the reader above all else.) It feels like a lot of modern books can't decide whether they are pulp or not, and that really limits them, because they get tangled up in anxiety about the nature of what they're doing and its moral or artistic value. To write great pulp, sublime pulp, you can have no illusions that your goal is pleasure - and we need pulp! It serves an essential social purpose - to give us space to explore our drives and desires that would be dangerous or impossible to live out in reality. It's psychologically essential.

"Sorry i reported you" scam making it's rounds here.

I'm not even banned.

Vague details.

Doesn't just start with the reason for contact.

You submit help to www.tumblr.com/support or help.tumblr.com. NOT the links provided in the photos.

the proof of email photo is crunchy as hell. Looks old too.

Why do i have to contact them to confirm my innocence. lmao.

What is the scam? You rush to prove your innocence to the email and they will respond back to you needing to verify your login info and then steal your account. easy. Discord and Steam have a version of this too.

Oh. This one's back again, huh?

Yeah, always go through official channels, and if it seems sketchy, be suspicious.

Very good advice

*nods* Facebook had a scam like this too where they'd pretend your account was about to be deactivated because you "weren't using it" so "click the link" and "login" to yada yada. Same school friend who shared that scam to her friends ended up with spam posts on her account not long after.
