Recently I’ve gotten back into streaming and I’m focusing more on cozy/creepy kind of games (right now I’ve been playing Little Witch in the Woods and having a phenomenal time), but if you wanted to have something to fall asleep to/have on in the background while you be productive, I’ve been told MANY times that my voice is very soothing.

I’ve also just had fun coming up with voices and playing around with the different kinds of voices I can do, so if that sounds like something up your alley, you can find the VODs here (and if you want to know when I’m live next you can subscribe and hit the notification bell because I do not have a set schedule 😅).

Also my vtuber is a lil anime cutie modeled after corvids, my fave birds!

Welcome to the channel! Here you can join in on streams as I play through cozy (and sometimes creepy) games that I find shiny.

fake Goncharov fans don’t even realize that Scorsese did NOT direct the 1973 cult classic. he was executive producer. 🤦‍♀️

The actual director is Natted JWHJ0715, and they deserve credit!!!

It's Matteo JWHJ0715!!!!! Very talented director (italian mother, license plate father)

PUT SOME RESPECT ON THEIR NAME

[sanguinifex]

You gotta read and watch some old books and films that aren’t 100% modern politically correct. I’m not saying you should agree with everything in them but you need to learn where genres came from to understand what those genres are doing today and where media deconstructing old tropes is coming from.

Also, more often than you might think, they’re not actually promoting bigotry so much as “didn’t consider all the implications of something” or just used words that were polite then but considered offensive now.

Kill the censor in your head.

[ashintheairlikesnow]

When we choose to avoid history because it's Problematic or Says Bad Things, we are choosing to divorce ourselves from understanding how we came from that time to this one, which makes it even more likely for the cycle to repeat, with no one but a few people with shelves of old books aware that it's happened before.

[swimmingblue]

and this shit's important. Media from the past tells us how people from the past acted and thought and behaved.

Plus, a lot of these media pieces were socially acceptable and/or progressive for their time. For example, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, while it contains a lot of words and ideas that are offensive now, was very progressive for its time. The book is a statement piece for how a young man who's grown up in a racist environment, with no words to explain himself other than racist and bigoted ones, decides that the whole system is shit and he's not going to follow those rules any more. So not reading or engaging with it because it uses the n-word a lot really misses the point.

[chekhovs-raygun]

also the idea that we're more progressive than we used to be because time has elapsed so progress must have occurred is extremely complacent.... and very easy to check, if you bother to check. the last ten years' slide into fascism means there's movies from 2001 that are more aggressively feminist or anti-racist or both than anything getting greenlit today.

[breelandwalker]

This is reminding me about the discourse that popped up a while back about the Laura Ingalls Wilder "Little House" books. They were adapted from the memory and diary entries of a woman who lived in the 1800s. They're not meant to be a statement - they're a memoir. They're a snapshot of one family's experience at particular period of time. Of COURSE the attitudes and language and events described are going to be problematic. It's ridiculous to expect that something over a century old is going to fit the same Overton Window parameters as we have today, especially considering media that is much more recent is being written off, even if it was progressive as hell at the time. (Looking at everyone who questions why Legally Blonde is considered a landmark feminist work, or why Rocky Horror Picture Show is considered landmark queer representation in cinema.)

Moreover, it lies with the reader to exercise critical thinking and educate themselves. If you're reading or watching something with material that troubles you, first question why it does. Then question why it's there. There's usually a reason.

For the last goddamn time...

"Kill your darlings" means "if something is holding you back, get rid of it, even if it sounds pretty."

That's it! That's all it means! It means if you're stuck and stalled out on your story and you could fix the whole block by removing something but you're avoiding removing that thing because it's good, you remove that thing. That's the darling.

It does NOT mean

That you have to get rid of your self-indulgent writing

That you should delete something just because you like it (?wtf?)

That you need to kill off characters (??? what)

That you have to pare your story down to the absolute bare bones

That you have to delete anything whatsoever if you don't want to

The POINT is that you STOP FEELING GUILTY for throwing out good writing that isn't SERVING THE STORY.

The POINT is that you don't get so HUNG UP on the details that you lose sight of the BIG PICTURE.

Good grief....

[prof-grace-aspen]

Also, you don't have to like, delete it from existence. Keep a second document full of the Darlings. You never know when you'll need it later.

[earhartsease]

yes, your killed darlings are ripe for rebirth

[eldritchsandwich]

compost your darlings

recycle your darlings

Darlings who don't fit this narrative go into the use later folder

[breelandwalker]

If you are unsatisfied with the fruits of your writing, put them aside and let them ferment. When you come back to them later, you'll either find gigglejuice or good compost. Both are helpful for future projects.

[thecuriosarium]

Even if we never see another Mass Effect, you’ll always be one of my favorite characters of all time. Thank you. Because of you and Jane, I had so much fun drawing a few years ago. And now, I’m moving on to my next adventure. But I’m sure I’ll draw you two again from time to time.

See you again later.

The reason your snacks are unsatisfying is that you need both carb and protein.

Carb starts your engine, protein keeps it going.

No carb, engine don’t start. No protein, engine dies out fast.

[what-even-is-thiss]

Easy carb add on:

Cookie

Fruit (canned or fresh)

Chips

Piece of bread

Popcorn

Crackers

Easy protein add on:

Nuts

Spoonful of nut butter

Cheese

Roasted chickpea snacks

Glass of milk (dairy or non dairy)

Small canned sausages or similar

[what-even-is-thiss]

Sugar in there.

[what-even-is-thiss]

I am pleased by people messaging me telling me that after adding a carb or protein to their snacks or meals they feel more satisfied all day. Yes, my plan is working. People are getting through their days with less hangry.

I’m currently doing some research on a script I’m writing and I came across this documentary called “A Certain Kind of Death” from 2003 that is an incredibly unflinching look at what happens to people who die with no next of kin.

It’s harrowing, fascinating, and creates a level of empathy for those who pass, those who have to investigate, and those who have to gather and clean up after death.

Here’s the link for anyone who might be interested in watching it:

saw this on Insta and the idea that people who are anti-AI are just using it anyway like... willing to give it up? I ACTIVELY AVOID THAT SHIT BUD! WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT?

[torchickentacos]

one of the best pieces of advice I've ever heard (for myself, at least) is that if you're in a terrible mood and NOTHING is helping, then start doing the chores/responsibilities/job stuff/etc that you've been putting off. Will it put you in an even worse mood temporarily? Probably, but you're already pissed off, so you might as well double up on it at that point 😭 there's no loss. It's not like finally getting around to cleaning the house and scheduling appointments is going to ruin the good day that you aren't currently having to begin with 💀 And then, when the bad mood passes, you'll have gotten shit done and you'll feel a lot better later, even if in the moment you're having The Worst Time Ever about it.

[corrie-zodori]

DUDE NO FORREAL ACTUALLY I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. This is one of the few things that works SUPER WELL for me. Years ago one of my friends was talking to me and they were in a real bad mood. Then mentioned they were gonna do something productive and sink themselves into their work so at least something good can come of that time they otherwise would have spent in quiet misery. I internalized that and started practicing that on my own. Now, whenever I'm doing REALLY rough, I'll try to turn that into productivity. It's REALLY effective when I work on commissions, because that work gets me closer to being done regardless. Not only does it help get my mind off of whatever's ailing me (at least to some degrees), it means I made a net positive out of a bad situation. I can look back and feel ANY kind of positive emotion instead of it being completely terrible, and it's less work I have to do when I'm in a better mood. Win win.
