an artist i admire drew fanart of a fic im writing

[moramew]

A small list of random ass sites I’ve found useful when writing:

Fragrantica: perfume enthusiast site that has a long list of scents. v helpful when you’re writing your guilty pleasure abo fics

Just One Cookbook: recipe site that centers on Japanese cuisine. Lots of different recipes to browse, plenty of inspiration so you’re not just “ramen and sushi” 

This comparing heights page: gives you a visual on height differences between characters

A page on the colors of bruises+healing stages: well just that. there you go. describe your bruises properly

McCormick Science Institute: yes this is a real thing. the site shows off research on spices and gives the history on them. be historically accurate or just indulge in mindless fascination. boost your restaurant au with it

A Glossary of Astronomy Terms: to pepper in that sweet terminology for your astrophysics major college au needs

[moramew]

Adding to this since I’m working on a shifter au one-shot:

Canine Body Language

Feline Body Language

[moramew]

More:

Cocktail Flow: a site with a variety of cocktails that’s pretty easy to navigate and offers photos of the drinks. You can sort by themes, strengths, type and base. My only real annoyance with this site is that the drinks are sometimes sorted into ~masculine~ and ~feminine~ but ehhhh. It’s great otherwise.

Tie-A-Tie: a site centered around ties, obviously. I stumbled upon it while researching tie fabrics but there’s a lot more to look at. It offers insight into dress code for events, tells you how to tie your ties, and has a section on the often forgotten about tie accessories

[moramew]

Even more:

Types of High Heels: A page describing twenty five different types of high heels. It gives a description and pictures. Shake it up from just “stilettos and kitten heels”

Random Job Generator: Exactly as it says. The site offer more generators like characters, plots, or town names.

Glossary of Hosiery Terms: Figure out what is what on a pair of stockings.

Men’s Dress Shoe Guide: A quick guide describing the eight most common types of men’s dress shoes. Pics included.

Types of Women’s Coats: Descriptions and pics of various different types of coats.

loz twitter was briefly trying to decide if the hero of time can read. i genuinely think the answer is no

[blueskittlesart]

"the hero of time doesnt know what doors are" is good. but allow me to present a second, funnier option,

[epicsause-official]

so the wikipedia page for this defunct company has a tiny bit of funny phrasing in its opening paragraph:

now because i know wikipedia editors Don't Like It When Wikipedia Is Funny i looked at the talk page and it did not dissapoint

[girldraki]

Magic the gathering is a deeply unserious game. I had a creature card that makes the opponent discard a card when entering the table. The opponent had a "return creature of your choice back into opponent's hand" card, and played it on my creature. So the next round, I just slapped that card right back where it was, triggering the same penalty as the first time.

Imagine playing cards with someone and they slap you with a lizard that knocks a card out of your hand, and then you just gently hand the lizard back to them. And then they immediately proceed to slap you with the lizard that knocks another card out of your hand.

[homunculus-argument]

From the tags, I'd like to clarify on this:

This is a perfect example of "just because it's legal doesn't mean you're right". On the grounds of the rules, the game allows you to do this. But morally speaking, if you do this shit, I will find a way to explode you with my mind.

seeing young trans men saying how they feel so “validated” by people telling them to kill themselves because “at least they see me as a man” is actually so fucking sad. 15 year old trans boy you do not deserve to be treated like a monster because of the words you use for yourself and the goals you have for your body. you do not need to accept this kind of treatment from your own community in order to prove that you’re not a threat. you are a person. you are a person

If you want to write in the classic high fantasy mould, you don't have to be hung up on food specifically, but there must be some very mundane thing you're prepared to cultivate a sincere interest in and describe in excruciating detail every single time it comes up. Clothing. Furniture. Architecture. It doesn't work without it.

[prokopetz]

(The trick is, it needs to be something you can touch or hold. If you're infodumping about trade routes, you've crossed the line into the venerable "worldbuilding bible with a fantasy story stapled to the side of it" genre, which often overlaps with classic high fantasy but is not identical with it!)

[prokopetz]

The reason I always bring up obscure Vertigo comics and shit every time the topic of superhero "deconstruction" comes up isn't because I'm playing gotcha. It's because I'm trying to illustrate that if you think you've got something clever to say, but your critique of the medium fails to rise even to the level of self-directed criticism that fucking DC Comics is willing to put their name to, you need to reexamine your premises.

[prokopetz]

Like, if your conceptual takedown of Superman ends up being the sort of thing that the multinational media corporation that owns Superman has a history of printing with their logo on the cover, it's not a big reach to conclude that you aren't going far enough.

[prokopetz]

Story-driven roguelike where you actually resolve the central problem with no contrived shooting-our-own-themes-in-the-foot excuse for why you just keep iterating on it forever after the credits roll, and any runs after that are framed as PTSD dreams about all the shit the protagonist went through.

[prokopetz]

Just imagine all the fucked up postgame difficulty modifiers you could easily justify in this framing. Nightmare mode mod where all the trash mobs have the face of your dad.
