Screenwriting Shortcut... Stop Holding Yourself Back

[trashandwriting]

People need to realize that EVERY rule you come upon (except when made by nature) is made up. There's no way of life that's "how it's supposed to be", there are just rules that people tend to follow. SOCIAL PRESSURE IS A CONSTRUCT. Break free.

My all time favorite quote, that has helped me more times than I ever expected it would.

Saga #16

I used to babysit a kid who was having a really hard time with The Rules -relatable. He had a rough past and a lot of energy and ADHD. but he was slowly gaining confidence in a loving and supportive (queer) home.

We went to the aquarium and he was trying to go into an employee only door. and it's my job to redirect, so I started to, when a scientist who worked at the museum emerged.

Most grown ups, when they see a kid trying to investigate something like an employees only door, would want to keep the kid away, even be unkind and/or annoyed. Many would see this kid as "misbehaving"

but this guy was a scientist, a science educator, working in a museum. And he saw - a young scientist. A curious kid investigating and testing his environment. He saw, with appreciation and admiration, a kid brimming with curiosity about the world and determination.

And he rewarded and encouraged that curiosity.

He opened the door and gave me and the kid a personal tour of this employee-only, research facility within the aquarium. The kid got to explore and ask questions in this place most people never got to see.

That scientist taught us both something important that day. I will always remember and appreciate it, and Im sure so will that kid (who has moved to another state and seems to be thriving). I made sure to reinforce the lesson and tell the kid that what happened was special- most people don't get a personal tour behind the scenes at the aquarium, he got to do that because he was curious and exploring, just being himself.

Part of the reason that Republicans are so desperately acting like they will never lose again is because they are deeply terrified that this is their last real chance to win. The big orange dipshit came in and gutted the party of everyone who wasn't a loyalist, which left it full of nasty little gremlins who have gaping voids where charisma and human decency is supposed to go.

They still hold a lot of power, but if we stop them this year the next presidential election may not be the Most Important One Of Your Life™, that's not a guarantee or anything, but if they don't win here and now their future looks grim, this dipshit is the only guy they have left and he's extremely diminished and has his brains leaking out of his ears at this point. We can beat him into the ground.

So that's what we're gonna fucking do. We're gonna break these fucking fash. They will crash upon us and we're gonna break their fucking necks. When they come for us they will lose because they're fucking losers and we have each other's backs which is something they fundamentally are incapable of comprehending.

it’s difficult to be a dom with anarchist leanings.

my sub will be like “i have to tell you something... i broke a rule. i’ll accept whatever punishment you see fit.” and i’m like. rise up comrade you have nothing to lose but your padded restraints. no doms no masters. oh you want me to spank you. yeah i can do that.

The heat was too high so i turned it down and now I'm cold. Why can't life just catch the vibe and ride the wave. It has to be so literal.

I want a fic where Tim unwittingly becomes the rebellious kid after his dad dies because he has a hard time adjusting from his latchkey kid with absentee parents life to the almost constant adult supervision at Wayne Manor.

Like, Tim spent years sneaking around to do Batman shit and even when he got in trouble, if he waited long enough his parents would either leave town or forget about it.

Now he’s getting the ‘I’m not mad, I’m disappointed’ talk from Bruce for skipping school and supplementing half his meals with energy drinks and is just like: ???? Nothing has changed??

Tim gets hurt on patrol and Bruce tells him that Robin will not be out in Gotham the next night, and then gets mad when he finds Tim on a rooftop in his civies taking pictures. Tim is just like: Robin’s not out. I followed your order. What’s the problem?

Tim disappears for a few days following a lead and gets grounded for not telling anybody where he went (even though he did. It’s in the Batcomputer) and for missing school which he interprets as meaning that Robin is grounded (can’t patrol). So it’s confusing when he gets in trouble again for inviting Kon over to hang out because he’s ‘grounded’ which doesn’t even make sense because Bruce isn’t even home??
