Orpheus is a very relatable protagonist. I too would burst out into a song capable of swaying the hearts and minds of gods if Eurydice was playfully teasing me while also flashing her shoulder.

Fuck that post going around saying "you can have coffee in your story without justifying it :) you don't need to explain everything :)" I want, no, I DEMAND a fully researched ethnobotanical paper on every single food item in your work, if you don't explain to me where did potatoes come from in your fantasy setting or don't explain how the industry of coffee works over interstellar distances with full detail you are doing things wrong and I personally hate you and I hate your stupid story, fuck you

[elbiotipo]

Why are your stupid little wizards and knights eating potato stew in your dumb European middle ages fantasy world. Where did they get potatoes from. Where is the center of domestication of potatoes, do you have a fantasy Andean civilization? What are the social and economic consequences of having such a calorie rich crop in cold climates. I don't care about "themes" or "enemies to lovers with found family", I didn't ask about that. Where does your idiot space captain gets their shitty coffee from. Is it imported from Earth? Are there coffee growing worlds? Is it an alien species replacement with the same name? What are the social consequences of that? Don't try to change the subject, I'll stop pointing the gun when I want, I'm trying to have a conversation here,

True. ...Which is why some of us have sites like this...

Food and Cooking of the Middle Kingdoms

A recipe/cookbook project based in Diane Duane's award-winning Middle Kingdoms epic fantasy universe

...and pages like this.

Parsnip Mash with Cream and Spiced Butter - Food and Cooking of the Middle Kingdoms

A flavorful approach to a favorite staple vegetable of the Four Realms

For people inhabiting a culture in which artificial refrigeration of vegetables and other foods—while available via sorcerers and Fireworkers—is rarely terribly convenient, the parsnip’s impressive keeping qualities (especially when clamped) and its relatively long growing season are obviously going to make it popular as a side dish… or in some recipes, a main dish. The parsnip also provides a versatile and interesting backdrop for pairings with other vegetables and spices—its own intrinsic spiciness and warmth providing a pleasant foil for more assertive flavors. No other staple vegetable in the Four Realms’ food culture proffers so adaptable a welcome. (And perhaps none in ours. By comparison to the parsnip, the potato, in its initial state, is fairly bland. But Solanum tuberosum does not occur in the Middle Kingdoms, for reasons detailed here...)

Because getting it right matters. Even (or especially) when you're just making all this shit up.

people are seriously romanticizing early 2010s tumblr now?? as in, people who weren’t even ON this site at the time???

like i knew that weird hipster grunge fashion was rearing its ugly head again but folks you do not need to lament “missing out” on 2011-2014 tumblr. you did not miss much. count your lucky stars and consider yourself #blessed

[t00thpasteface]

seriously, as a veteran of this site since 2011 (on my old blog) i will now give a quick summary of what THE dashboard experience was like back then:

flashing galaxy gif

somebody’s starbucks order

photo of a pigeon-toed teenage white girl in skinny jeans

“advice animals” meme

equilateral triangles

harry potter meme. harry potter quote. a photo of harry potter books on someone’s bedspread with a cup of tea and a plate of little cookies and a sleeping cat. just so. much. harry. potter.

appropriated hindu/buddhist iconography, or a white girl in a warbonnet

REBLOG IF YOU’RE NOT HOMOPHOBIC

slur discourse (crazy, stupid, etc.)

performative feminism that’s either 2nd wave manhating or a vapid “women can do anything!!!!!” positivity post

an endless post of really annoying superwholock gifs

graphic pornography out of the blue

skyrim aesthetic edit

SUPPORT GAY MARRIAGE BECAUSE YAOI [rainbow gifs x100]

“fandom takeover” of a random post

some poor suckers getting totally queerbaited by a show/anime/movie, just hook line and sinker with the huge lists of “proof”

that seizure-inducing disco pogo hetalia post, or that equally garish homestuck rave gif post

a lyricstuck that’s very well made but takes up the whole dash for miles

#aesthetic post that’s just like. a mug of coffee next to some books on a windowsill. or some random gif in b/w. or a quote in a brush script font like “believe in the magic of your dreams”

a post by john green

a post either celebrating “the fault in our stars” as peak literature or dunking on that stupid cigarette quote

MY PARENT/TEACHER/ETC SAID A BAD THING. REBLOG IF YOU THINK WOMEN DESERVE RIGHTS

can't stop thinking about the sauna scene and patrick thinking they're being mean to eachother in a fun way but art isn't playing and he's so cold with it because he's so wrapped up in thinking that patrick is mocking him and trying to make him feel inferior that he can't see that patrick would literally drop the act in a second if art wanted. he wants to just tell art that he misses him. and genuinely if art told him to get on his knees right then and there he would. but art doesn't KNOW.

[angelscometrue]

i cant believe people have seen challengers and still think endgame is not art/tashi/patrick togheter. the movie shows clearly how none of them work as a couple:

- Patrick and Tashi: dont work because they are too much fire, they argue too much. Dont have any stabilty.

- Art and Tashi: they dont have a spark. Tashi is not able to let art be totally himself and he is tired of proving himself to her.

- Patrick and Art: too wrapped in their own heads to make a move. They literally NEED Tashi to start kissing. Emotionally and physically she is the catalist for everything.

[kneworder]

need more challengers fics where they actually are at least half as toxic as they are in the movie. tashi told art she would leave him if he lost a tennis match and refused to say i love you and cheated on him twice. art got right in the middle of patrick and tashi's relationship didn't speak to patrick for years after and then told him he wasn't even a peer and didn't matter when they finally saw each other again. patrick decided he was going to fuck with both of them by sleeping with tashi and then basically announced this to art mid tennis match. like i know these people would not deal with any of this or any of their other baggage before entering a relationship. can you imagine trying to hardlaunch a throuple that toxic. it's delicious. why do i keep seeing challengers triad fluff. as if art wouldn't think neither of them actually love or even care about him once he retires but would still do anything to keep them from leaving him and patrick wouldn't be insanely dickish and mean because he's desperate to prove he's not just the washed-up tagalong to his situationship's eight-year failmarriage that should have been his and tashi wouldn't be furious with them both for not being happy instantly when she feels like she's given them all she can give and furious with herself for having both of them and it still not being enough. please. these people are HOT but more importantly they are UNWELL.

“Tashi was the villain!”

“Art was the villain!”

“Patrick was the villain!”

The real villain was repressed bisexuality and mononormativity guys c’mon

yea she’s a villian but she’d never hurt me and I think she’s a beautiful weapon of mass destruction. just don’t save me, her evil laugh is to die for <3

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
