if you've never engaged with a creative art on a regular basis you need to understand that it requires concerted effort to get into "the groove" to make something and every second that it takes to get into that groove causes physical pain, but the only thing worse than doing it is not doing it.

"The bastard sealed me, starving, inside a dusty tomb all on my own for an entire year. Months of scratching my hands raw trying to carve my way out. More months of not moving at all. Months of wishing only for death." - I have a reputation for angst and I always enjoy upholding it so here I am with some Astarion pictures inspired by that one very famous piece of @velnna Astarion art. It was one of the first pieces of Astarion artwork I saw, just as I first joined the fandom and it's one of the reasons I wanted to cosplay him. @electrospectrum and I have wanted to pay homage to it ever since and at the big Baldur's Gate 3 photoshoot weekend organised by Chattyanny last month, we finally got to!

-- Ted Chiang, from "Why A.I. Isn't Going to Make Art"

I'm so glad they got Ted Chiang -- a wonderful writer of science fiction and thinker about technology, in my opinion -- to write this essay. My favorite line was this:

Generative A.I. appeals to people who think they can express themselves in a medium without actually working in that medium.

i’m so serious when i say excessive fear of being annoying/creepy/taking up people’s energy etc holds us back. it seems like it’s just little things but they add up. over the past month i’ve ordered food and drinks almost exclusively by asking “do you have a favorite?” and i know if i said that on twitter or wherever ppl would dogpile me for demanding emotional labor of servers or w/e but every single person i’ve asked has seemed genuinely psyched to answer! i don’t ask if it’s busy obvi, and use a phrasing that gives them the easy out of “i don’t have one”— but no one has taken it! the girl at the cafe confessed to me with something like conspiracy in her voice how everybody raves about the gluten free chocolate chip cookies and sure, they’re great, but the delicious, fluffy homemade waffles are RIGHT THERE. the barbera the bartender recommended was actually kind of awful but it broke the ice and we ended up talking for like 45 minutes. the bodega guy declared that he usually makes himself a burger but tonight was “a breakfast sandwich night” and tbh he was totally right. it WAS a breakfast sandwich night

Writing letters to ppl in jail is a quick and easy way to make their jail experience suck considerably less than it otherwise would. Listen: Reminding people that they're still supported and thought of is great and v. important, but in a way it's also a demonstration of force. Being in jail means being seen as unpersoned, disposable, and expendable by much of the rest of society and by one's captors and their collaborators especially. Someone who gets an asston of mail is more likely to be seen as someone whose disappearance or mistreatment might have professional consequences.

Think abt it.

Since I have started writing to inmates more regularly, I find myself taking time to notice pleasant, everyday things during my day and make mental note of them as things to write down for whoever is next on my writing list. The waxwings are getting drunk on fermented berries. The dogs are shedding because it's fall. I just finished making fig jam, and that's rewarding but frustrating because it's a very thick jam and thus spits a lot.

It's good for me as an exercise, trying to notice pleasant things and remember them so that i can write about them. I hope it makes my letters more interesting, more of an anchor to the world outside of prison.

My point is that when we do things for other people, it ends up helping us, often in ways we didn't anticipate. I feel proud to be someone who can be a source of a trans prisoner's Real Name. Doing this mitzvah feels good.

Write to inmates, especially queer & trans inmates. They need us.

`This is good advice! People who have never written to a prisoner often think it's going to be very hard conversations, but that's often the last thing prisoners want.

Talking about what got them in prison is legally dangerous for them (do not ask) and talking about prison itself is often something they want to do a limited amount of because that's already on their mind every day.

Topics that are likely to be a pleasant break in their day include: favorite music, shows and movies that were on before they were locked up (or currently if they have access to tv), opinions on cars or trains or sports, books, actors and comedians, space, science, hobbies, philosophy, past relationships, what their dream house would look like, plants and pets, nature, etc. Just stuff that isn't prison.

Oh, and one unbreakable rule: never EVER ghost a prisoner. If you don't want to write anymore, TELL THEM. Be honest or make up an excuse, but make sure that they know that there won't be another letter. It really sucks to be stuck inside hoping for a letter that will never come. Never do that to someone.
