i dont want a childproofed internet i am almost 30 fucking years old. give your kid an internet safety talk and stop making it the problem of every adult on the planet every time some cryptkeeper legislator gets the brilliant idea (via conservative lobbying) to push through yet another bill gutting our access to free expression + increasing the powers of the surveillance state + lining the pockets of Big Data in the name of Protecting The Kids they wont even feed. this shit is exhausting i can’t believe we’re going to be fighting about it for the rest of my life

if i were a respected british actor with any principles at all i would simply not agree to a project whose earnings will have material consequences for trans people but maybe i'm built differently

'Black Mirror' director turns down offer to work on 'Harry Potter' series: "Absolutely fucking not"

Black Mirror director Ally Pankiw rejected an opportunity to work on HBO's Harry Potter series because of J.K. Rowling's views on gender. 

"It simply is this easy to say no to funding transphobia"

*Pippin is fighting a monster*

boromir: Just stay calm! You already have everything you need to beat it!

pippin: The power to believe in myself!?

boromir: No, a knife! Stab it!

[greyeyedstranger]

Sean Bean’s facial expressions and mannerisms in this scene make it one of my favorite Boromir moments of the entire movie…especially when he’s initially addressing Aragorn. You can pick up so much about his character, and the role he’ll play in the future, just from this one interaction

Villain Motivation Prompts!!

─ .✦ A villain who was the hero of an earlier story, and lost so badly that becoming the villain felt like the only way to survive it

─ .✦ Someone who commits atrocities in perfect, sincere belief they're the last reasonable person left, and everyone else has gone mad

─ .✦ A villain who isn't wrong about the injustice, just wrong about what to do with the anger

─ .✦ Someone who became cruel one small compromise at a time, and can't identify the exact moment it stopped being self-defense

─ .✦ A villain who genuinely loves the people they're hurting, and has convinced themselves the hurting is temporary and necessary

─ .✦ Someone who was failed by every system meant to protect them, and built their own system instead, one nobody else survives

─ .✦ A villain whose worst act was done for someone who never asked them to do it, and wouldn't have wanted it

─ .✦ Someone who isn't seeking power, just certainty, after a life that gave them none

my publisher: Good morning! Huh did you advertise for the pre-sale yesterday? Because we launched twelve hours ago and we already made sales!

me: yeah, i posted on tumblr

publisher: .........tumblr?

me: that's where the gays are.

update

publisher: And what is your marketing strategy on... tumblr?

me: idk, i shitpost at 2am?

publisher: .....and it works?

me: depends on what the gays find funny at that point in time.

publisher: Could I have a link to your tumblr?

me: .......absolutely not.

[wheeloffortune-design]

update!

publisher: I've been looking into tumblr, have you thought of using Blaze to promote your book?

me: NO

publisher: But it seems like an efficient way to get this in front of more eyes-

me: people on tumblr hate Blaze.

publisher: There is no algorithm and you can't pay to promote a post? I don't understand how anyone advertises anything on tumblr.

me: That's the best part. They don't. They can't.

(trying to make him understand that we do not control the attention. We just have to show something shiny and gay enough and if people are interested, they'll reblog.)

update with picture of a pet!

This is Cosmos, my publisher's dog.

He barks at my publisher's phone notifications. So every time a book is sold, Cosmos barks.

It's been days.

I think you guys would love to know that when you buy a book, a dog barks in Vancouver, Canada.

Well, that’s one book waiting for me when I get back home! Also, please tell your publisher Cosmos is the goodest dog 💖

Ways to spark your writing again!! PART TWO

─ .✦ write a character who realizes they've been performing happiness for so long that they've forgotten what the real thing feels like

─ .✦ let a character find out the person who raised them was younger, at the time, than the character is now

─ .✦ write two siblings who never fought as kids and are somehow strangers as adults, neither one able to point to when it started

─ .✦ a character finally gets to say the thing they rehearsed for years, and the moment arrives too small for how big it felt in their head

─ .✦ let a character realize their independence was never a strength, just a wound that got good at hiding

─ .✦ write someone who spent their whole life being the exception to the rule, and finally has to be ordinary in front of someone who loves them

─ .✦ a character discovers the version of the story they were told isn't the version that actually happened, and has to decide which one they'll keep believing

─ .✦ let a character give someone else the childhood they never had, and grieve their own while doing it

─ .✦ write a character who finally stops being the peacekeeper, and watches what the group looks like without them holding it together

─ .✦ a character realizes the thing they call loyalty was actually just fear of being alone

─ .✦ let someone find the exact place their life split into "before" and "after," and realize they've been standing in "after" for years without noticing

─ .✦ write a character who was taught survival instead of living, and the first time someone shows them the difference

─ .✦ a character finally says no to something, for the first time in their life, and has to sit with how much it terrifies them
