My least favorite things about anti- UBI discourse is always the techbros whining that "nobody is going to work anymore! People will just watch Netflix all day!" and I have 2 responses:

1) Who the fuck cares. Who the fuck cares what people do with their time! That's kind of the fucking point!

2) People aren't going to stop laboring. Housework (look, it's right there in the word!) will still need to be done. So will maintenance on our homes and personal spaces. Children will still need carers, as will the elderly and disabled. There are millions of examples of ~work~ that we do all the time, uncompensated, that won't suddenly stop because we aren't forced to sell our labor to provide corporation's profits.

I'm not surprised that what is traditionally women's work is invisible to these dipshits, but it never fails to anger me.

Anyway. Join the IWW.

i've said it before and i'll say it again. writers are always told to 'show, don’t tell,' but sometimes you just have to tell. no one needs a poetic paragraph about how the sky is an emotional metaphor for your protagonist’s angst when you can just say, 'he was sad.' trust your instincts. you know when to show and when to tell.

Do you ever think about how Varian must of felt in Nothing Left to Lose, when he lost his father, lost his mind, lost his freedom and a year of his life before redeeming himself, and Cassandra calls it a ‘game’? Like if he had just tried harder, he would have won? That he wouldn’t have had to suffer at all if he was just better?

I think that hurt more than the rocks did.

i really hate coming out but still want my extended family to know, so my mother took it upon herself to invent the game “guess which one of my kids is gay.”

the rules are simple.

sit down with uncle so-and-so

he says something about gay people in passing

my mom says “there’s a gay person at this table right now. guess which of my kids it is!

he looks frantically between the three of us trying to figure out if she’s joking or not and trying desperately not to offend anyone but also she won’t continue with the conversation unless he makes a guess so he has to make a guess

we all enjoy his discomfort immensely

As I'm trying to wrap up Story WIPs, I wanna share some highlights from my Gorrik & Blish Playlist with you ~

A small look into the creative process :D

One More Light (Linkin Park)

One of the newest additions to the list that I've been listening a little more to recently! This is a generally powerful and sad song already but it hits quite differently under the light of the whole "Star to Guide us" narrative. Just Ouch in the best way.

Here for You (Jeremy Jordan & Jonathan Reid Gealt)

You know what - I'm not gonna say anything about this. You're going into this blind.

The Scientist (Cold Play; Cover by BILLbilly01 ft. Tan)

This one is such a self-explanatory auto-include, I wouldn't even know where to begin laying this one out xD

Gone, Gone, Gone (Phillip Phillips)

This song is visceral! In contrast to the prior one I can't stop yapping about this one. It just brings its own music video xD Let me paint you a scene of Gorrik stealing from the Inquest to funnel tech to Blish's research, to his brother supporting Gorrik against bullies. Imagine Gorrik steadying Blish when his sickness is beginning to take over and them then starting to plot out the procedure for his Golem Body. This song just gives and gives and gives. I think out of the entire Playlist this one is my fav 🥲

‘don’t you want your favourite character to be happy???’ no? i want my favourite character to be interesting. i want me to be happy. which sometimes involves my favourite character being in exquisite agony

I feel like pirating media that isn’t sold or offered anywhere legally anymore shouldn’t be called piracy. Girl thats archaeology
