let the world never forget that it’s AMERICAN weapons being used to wipe out Gaza. that it’s AMERICAN tax money funding this genocide while the AMERICAN president and AMERICAN leaders support this mass murder of innocent people. let the world never forget America has Palestinian blood on its hands

“Are you going to teach me something?” “I’m going to tell you something. I’m not sure if there’s much time to teach…”

one of my absolute favourite scenes from A Crown of Candy, both for biased “oh my god it’s Lapin” reasons and unbiased thematic & cinematography reasons. this show is everything to me 😭

Stop Motion AND Lego Art?!? The man is too powerful!!!

[cryptotheism]

It is good and righteous to make fun of people who take astrology as predictive fact, but you need some perspective. For every one astrology mfer there is a legion of quack vitamin supplement mfers who deserve just as much derision.

[cryptotheism]

All this vitriol over the pinprick of astrology, when the gaping shell crater train tunnel of pseudo-nutrition is right there.

[cryptotheism]

I would take a hundred people who are a bit weird about their tarot cards over a single mfer that tries to treat diseases with essential oils.

This is how you make something pretty, let me know if you have any questions

Best trick I ever picked up. Seriously.

[catastrophe-jones]

I have also learned this is great for [PICK A COOL NAME FOR A SHIP] and [LOOK UP THE FACTS ABOUT OXYGEN LEVELS] and [WHAT’S THE WORD] and [DOUBLECHECK CHARACTER’S EYE COLOR] and ALL KINDS OF THINGS.

Anything that isn’t critical in the moment, and could be filled in later while I’m currently trying to burn through writing pages that will be lost if I don’t get them out right now? Brackets.

[betweentimeand42]

This is seriously the best advice, and it really helps put it into perspective that the first draft is just that- a draft. There’s no reason to agonize over a particularly tricky bit of writing when you could just leave it in brackets and skip to the good parts, the parts you’ve visualized. I also use brackets for [fact-check this], [use a stronger verb], [is this in character?] and other notes as I write, just so I don’t forget what I want to work on when I go back and edit. 

[petermorwood]

Note the good sense of [brackets] not (parentheses).

Parentheses AKA round brackets can appear in fiction, usually as an afterthought in a character's thoughts or narration (as I saw them used just recently), but square brackets hardly ever do.

in the english dub she say “-just one more good sob - OKAY I’M READY” and that’s pretty accurate too.

#I have never felt more represented

[taylortut]

you know what’s wild is that all these crazy standards we hold ourselves to are things that we don’t even value in another person? like i’ve never been like “wow I love that this friend of mine is too proud to ask for help and never complains about their feelings” or “my favorite quality about this friend is that they get straight A’s and never get overwhelmed and has never told me about a problem” or “i love that this friend has never been wrong about anything or slipped up and said something embarrassing once in their life” and yet here we are, pushing ourselves past our limits for and beating ourselves up over slipups of things that our friends probably wouldn’t even rank in the top 50 reasons they like us

[cryoverkiltmilk]

Absolutely delighted with anticipation of the first time a cop gets stuck inside one of these with no power and (allegedly) unbreakable glass.

[wetleavesandfeathers]

Think of all the time, money and effort saved by having police vehicles that set themselves on fire.

[lesbianshepard]

while frustrating, the funniest response to historical erasure of same sex couples is people wildly overcorrecting and assuming any interaction between two men in history was a secret homosexual relationship covered up by Big Historian. i saw someone on r/sapphoandherfriend sincerely ask if Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were lovers.
