I'm gonna be making a new blog for short stories. I've started reblogging tens and hundreds of unrelated posts, my politics and identity related stuff and there is no point keeping it all on one page where nobody can find my writing and direct links don't work
Link to the blog
My writing is all under the tag #carnivalgore, my criminology related opinions are under #ask a criminologist and my mental health posts are under #fucked brain confessions
I'm at the end of my novel and now I have to write that scene I've been dreading forever to finish it. I hate this, I hate myself for planning that scene, but I have to, cause it's crucial.
20 Low effort meaningful comments to leave on fics when you can’t think of anything to say that most authors love and appreciate (and you will too).
1.) Thank you for writing this!
2.) This really helped distract me from the horrors of reality, thank you for writing it!
3.) I really really really loved this.
4.) <3
5.) Literal keyboard mash q3kjt2uh0erjiurjfnejkrgnkejoiiueirnf!!!!
6.) My favorite part was when they ____.
7.) I laughed at ____.
8.) How dare you! /affectionate.
9.) I am very excited to read this story in its entirety!
10.) I really enjoyed the first __ chapters, I cannot wait for more!
11.) This gave me everything I was hoping for!
12.) 10/10 fic, thanks for writing!
13.) I am going to be thinking about this fic for a long time, thank you for writing!
14.) This made me feel a lot of emotions and I cannot describe them, so thank you for that. I really enjoyed this.
15.) This was the best ride I haven taken in a long time, wow! Thank you for writing this.
16.) If I had the ability to bind this as a real book I would, I loved it so much.
17.) I'm not good with words but I just loved this so much.
18.) This is complete perfection.
19.) I am in awe of how you described ____.
20.) This means so much to me that you wrote this. Thank you.
The more you comment, the better you will get at it and the more enjoyment and fulfillment you will received out of saying thank you.
"Feed me and tell me I'm pretty" except it's "reblog something and tell me I'm not a fraud"
please please please please reblog if you’re a writer and have at some point felt like your writing is getting worse. I need to know if I’m the only one who’s struggling with these thoughts
so I didn't know if female jesters had been a thing in the past and looked it up and was introduced to mathurine the fool, who gave one of the best burns in history in a silly little way.
also she apparently stopped an assassination?? amazing.
[ID: She was known for her extravagant costume as an Amazonian warrior, complete with shield, armor, and a wooden sword. She was famous for her sharp wit, and there were many anecdotes about it. One of them was an occasion, in which a lady in waiting complained that she did not like having a fool at her right side, upon which Mathurine jumped to the lady’s other side and announced: “I don’t mind it at all.” /end ID]
a woman will be 28 or whatever and all the 24 year olds are in shock like “no fucking way I seriously couldn’t tell. you don’t look near death at all”
sir that’s my emotional support story that I’ve been working on for five years that still has no conceivable plot
they need to come up with more words like necrosis and miasma and mausoleum and cadaver and morose and decrepit and stuff like that just so metal bands can expand their vocabulary
looking for new writeblrs to follow
pls reblog/comment if you’d like me to follow you!
bonus points if: SSF, lots of worldbuilding, tag game-friendly

My manic psychosis leading me to do and say horrendous shit while I believe it's all normal and rational
My mental illness is ruining my life. I say things that are completely nuts when I'm manic and I sound so fucking coherent sometimes. I genuinely regret my entire life right now. I'm not going to kill myself, even though I want to, cause I'm thinking quite clearly. But I just lost a person I thought was going to be near me for the rest of my life, cause I said a bunch of cuckoo bullshit half of which I don't even remember and I can't turn it back. The real, genuine me is not fucked up like that. The worst part is that I mixed a lot of genuine shit with insanity and now it's all just mixed up and I will never be able to be believed again.
we are in a media literacy crisis
friendly reminder that characters don't need to be saints to be entertaining. and telling a story does not mean endorsement. art does not need to be all about morally good people.
IDK if this was meant as hyperbole but it's literally true:
Adult literacy is low.
Child literacy is low.
Information literacy has shifted dramatically in the last decade, but reputable information sources like research journals and factual news reporting have been unable to keep pace.
We are genuinely in a crisis of media literacy, with ever fewer genuinely factual resources available in the style and language used by contemporary audiences.
It may sound condescending, but we genuinely need to remind people, or worse, explain to them for the first time that art is not evidence of real world behaviour.
So, thank you, for this reminder. Genuinely.
You're correct:
Art does not need to feature exclusively morally pure characters. Art is not proof of the creator's secret, violent desires.
ETA; Yes, the links are US American; no your country is not immune to propaganda. Be POLITE in asking, and I will help you find the data for your own country as well.
Low literacy also leads to more crime! It's really a wide-reaching issue that needs to be addressed. There's research on how recidivism rates lower when people receive education in prison. This & this
Humans are 1000x more sensitive to the smell of petrichor (that smell you get with rain) than sharks are to blood, to no apparent evolutionary advantage. You’re privileged to be a part of the first welcoming committee to meet our new Non-Human arrivals in person. They smell like petrichor.
