yknow theres a lot of pressure to be successful, particularly on artsy kids whose professions are seen as useless unless theyre famous, but life is fucking hard and sometimes things dont turn out

but i think thats not bad. my dad has wanted to be a musician forever, and hes rly pretty good. but then he joined the military to get away from an abusive family, and then he got married, and then he got divorced, and a lot of horrible shit HAPPENED. he has ptsd and severe anxiety and he could never really get back on the horse. and he never made it as a musician, and now hes 53

but i grew up in a house full of instruments, and he can play all of them, and some of my earliest memories are of him playing guitar on the front porch and me thinking there wasnt a better musician in the world. so. even if you dont get to the stars, exactly, what you do isnt worthless. its not a waste of time if life is difficult and you cant make it, or if you arent famous, or if your work doesn’t influence thousands of people. it will influence someone

there are a million ways to be happy and a million ways to be a successful artist. we create what we do to enhance the human experience and relate to each other and improve ourselves. theres something to be said for just doing that,,,for the sake of doing it, yknow

This is the most comforting, warm and important piece of text I have ever read, and it is so true. No life is wasted that is spent sharing and loving.

My mother never became a professional artist. She became a social worker, then later taught emotionally disturbed children. But our home was filled with photographs of wildflowers and wildlife. Spice racks, shelves, and other useful objects were adorned with small paintings. She taught me and my sister that we could make things beautiful, even if in small ways, and let us glue glitter and fake gems on our cheap kids furniture and make it ours. Capitalism tries to say that art isn’t successful unless it makes money. But that’s not why humans make art. We make art to convey emotion. To make an object or a moment or a story OURS. And making someone smile when they hear you sing, or look at something you made for them is as valid a reason for creating as any other.

I open this thing just infrequently enough that it catches me woefully off guard every single fucking time

her new dress is so beautiful [image description: an illustration of Laudna, from Critical Role. She is standing against a backdrop of creepy trees. She is wearing her new dress, and Pâté is on her shoulder. Her Hound of Ill Omen is standing by her side, staring ominously towards the viewer. She looks creepy and confident and very sexy because she has a girlfriend. End ID]

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

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,

This is the difference between plot vs lore! (key principle of videogame writing) plot is what drives the whole thing forward, lore is all the funny little trivia you can discover (optionally, on your own time, if you wish). Slowing down a current urgent plot point with discussions about where potatoes come from is terrible pacing (unless it's relevant to the plot somehow), otherwise the intricate history of potato domestication in this particular setting shouldn't be in a mandatory unskippable cutscene that you need to watch to finish the game. You CAN, however, put in an optional NPC named Mr potatoes the potato farmer whose sole purpose is to give you potato history flavortext.

People who care about lore will care about lore, but not everyone cares about lore. If you only have a limited amount of narrative coins to spend, spend it on characterization. The origin of potatoes do not matter as much as how what your characters feel about it. Your readers only have a limited amount of time and patience, after all.
