Leonid Pasternak (Ukrainian, 1862–1945) - The Torments of Creative Work
oh leonid, we're really in it now
Leonid, you really understand it.
Save me Leonid, from my empty Word document
Leonid what should I do about the emails
Babe are you okay? you reblogged Leonid Pasternak's Torments of Creative Work again
Leonid Pasternak is the best! My favorite of his is The Night Before The Exam (1895).
My man Leonid continues to be relatable

This thread under the post is the funniest thing I've seen today
Yo this is literally me!
Whenever I feel like hope is lost, I google "tarantula saved from burning building" and read all the stories about firefighters rescuing one of the world's most hated animals because they're someone's pet and it doesn't matter if you're scared of spiders or think they're gross, their lives have worth and they deserve to live just as much as any other pet

every writing tip article and their mother: dont ever use adverbs ever!
me, shoveling more adverbs onto the page because i do what i want: just you fucking try and stop me
May I add something, because I will never shut up about this book (Writing Tools by Roy Peter Clark):
Finally, some good fucking advice
[Image Description]
Two highlighted selections from the referenced book. They read:
To understand the difference between a good adverb and a bad adverb, consider these two sentences: “She smiled happily” and She smiled sadly". Which one works best? The first seems weak because “smiled” contains the meaning of “happily”. On the other hand, “sadly” changes the meaning.
Remember the song “Killing Me Softly”? Good adverb. How about “Killing Me Fiercely”? Bad adverb.
Look also for weak verb-adverb combinations that you can revise with stronger verbs: “She went quickly down the stairs” can become “she dashed down the stairs.” “He listened surreptitiously” can become “He eavesdropped.” Give yourself a choice.

This whole thing about scanning your face to prove tour age is making me remember, in 2018 while out in paris we got our wallet stolen during a particularly busy night at a lesbian bar. It was very late and with no money to buy metro tickets we were effectively stranded, but some people helped us and we ended up staying the night at a really sweet older man's place. His face was deeply scarred and he was missing an eye. We chatted on our way and he told me about his life, probably to help calm me down. He explained he had been stuck in a house fire 20 years ago and had had multiple rounds of facial reconstruction and a skin graft, but there's only so much surgery can do so he just learned to live with it. I remember he said he liked the queer bars because they're the only place people don't really stare at him.
At some point I took out my phone, and at the time I was using face unlock. This prompted him to tell me all the ways this technology doesn't work on him. How his phone selfie camera doesn't focus right because it's not detecting a face. How he had to update his ID the old fashioned way, because the website kept rejecting his photos. And how it was becoming more and more common, and how it was making his life way harder.
This was 7 years ago, and now whenever I see this sort of technology I think of how that guy can't use it. And how house fires are pretty common, and how anything from being born this way to a skin condition to heavy tattooing can probably cause the same issue. Can these people get age verified ? Will they just lose access to all social media, which are increasingly necessary in society, if this becomes the norm ? These are people who are already driven out of public spaces due to how they look, and they're getting pushed out online too all in the interest of companies wanting more money.
Sapphics who don't like fat girls are so weird to me. You're supposed to like girl. Why wouldn't you want more girl per girl

I'm keeping an eye out for heat stroke in my area and I can't figure out what a full body flush would look like on dark skin since all the pictures are just fake training pictures. Anyone have video/pics of a heat stroke flush on black skin?
Big thanks to @rezmacro for the info!
More info from @tragicmoth on things to look out for in darker skin tones: the other signs including:
• High internal (core) body temperature, typically over 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius).
• Behavior changes — like agitation or aggression.
• Blurred vision.
• Confusion.
• Delirium.
• Dizziness.
• Fainting (syncope).
• Fast heart rate (tachycardia).
• Fast, shallow breathing (tachypnea).
• Low blood pressure (hypotension).
• Nausea and vomiting.
• Seizures.
• Slurred speech.
• Skin color changes — either flushed or paler than usual.
• Skin that’s dry and cool to the touch (classic heat stroke) or sweaty (exertional heat stroke).
• Weakness.
Especially keep an eye on your local homeless population since they're most likely to be affected from lack of shelter
Confirmation and update from @rubyroboticalt!
Including a link to Blackdoctor.org
last time I'm reblogging this for now unless it gets more to add, but it's important you internalize as many of these as possible. The blind guy outside the corner store may not have visible pupils to look at, that woman on the corner may have a skin condition that makes her skin blotchy to begin with- people are going to show different signs in the moment.
Skin is an easy shorthand if only cause there's so much of it and it's usually visible in this heat, but the more you know, the better.

Image 1 - @/rezmacro says:
"i've learned to use the pupils as indicators for darker skinned people; dilated pupils are indicative of heat exhaustion, constricted pupils are a sign of heat stroke."
Image 2 - @/tragicmoth says:
"as far as i am aware darker skin can either appear darker or have a grayish tone. unfortunately i do not have images of this. usually it's best to rely on the other symptoms of heat stroke."
Image 3 - @/rubyroboticalt says:
"heat rash on dark skin will usually be a "prickling" rash, it's a bunch of little bumps that may appear ruddy or dark depending on exact skin tone, but may also appear without visible coloration. a variant type looks like the splotches associated with allergies, and the splotches can be ruddy/reddish, dark, or white/grey. src: academic dermatology of nevada, blackdoctor.org, askthepaediatricians, medicalnewstoday."

“Haymitch calling Maysilee his sister was so forced” guys, that boy had one look at Proserpina and Vitus and said they were his friends. he couldn’t look at a small kid and and not say was his allies. he saw a damn rabbit MUTT and called it his partner…i think he calling his recently made best friend his sis, when she remind him of the baby sisters he lost and who’s constantly talking about her twin and saying she would be Ampert’s sister if he wanted, was actually pretty valid. The boy was sentimental, and dramatic, and was absolutely losing it. Leave him alone to label whoever he want with whatever he want, please :(
