Everything I’ve ever had to do ever my entire life seems to be due this week, so I’m kinda swamped. Hang in there with me on asks, I am gonna focus on that ask game I just did for a sec first.
Also: just putting a temporary pause on any new fic beta-ing requests. Trust me, I love it, whenever one of the authors of my favorite fics ever rn comes into my dms to ask me to beta it’s like meeting a minor celebrity. I’m getting fame by association, I’m the nepotism baby. I’m the Jack Quaid of this operation. But even Jack Quaid must rest.
If you’ve already worked something out with me tho, ur good babes I’m all up in ur google docs and I’m so sorry I’m behind. I have a story due tomorrow and I put on my musical playlist and sat down in the library and blasted out 20 pages of probable shit. We’ll see when I edit tomorrow. Pray for me.

>Join a union
>Hear people constantly complaining that the current union leadership is super corrupt, it's all just the same ten guys making all the decisions in secret and nobody else in the union ever gets to know what's going on
>Go to the monthly union meetings that are completely open to all 1200 union members
>The only attendees are the same ten guys every month, giving detailed reports about everything that's going on

This is such a good, succinct way of describing the illusion of choice many fundamentalist women and men have when it comes to life paths.

this is just my opinion but i think any good media needs obsession behind it. it needs passion, the kind of passion that's no longer "gentle scented candle" and is now "oh shit the house caught on fire". it needs a creator that's biting the floorboards and gnawing the story off their skin. creators are supposed to be wild animals. they are supposed to want to tell a story with the ferocity of eating a good stone fruit while standing over the sink. the same protective, strange instinct as being 7 and making mud potions in pink teacups: you gotta get weird with it.
good media needs unhinged, googling-at-midnight kind of energy. it needs "what kind of seams are invented on this planet" energy and "im just gonna trust the audience to roll with me about this" energy. it needs one person (at least) screaming into the void with so much drive and energy that it forces the story to be real.
sometimes people are baffled when fanfic has some stunning jaw-dropping tattoo-it-on-you lines. and i'm like - well, i don't go here, but that makes sense to me. of fucking course people who have this amount of passion are going to create something good. they moved from a place of genuine love and enjoyment.
so yeah, duh! saturday cartoons have banger lines. random street art is sometimes the most precious heart-wrenching shit you've ever seen. someone singing on tiktok ends up creating your next favorite song. youtubers are giving us 5 hours of carefully researched content. all of this is the impossible equation to latestage capitalism. like, you can't force something to be good. AI cannot make it good. no amount of focus-group testing or market research. what makes a story worth listening to is that someone cares so much about telling it - through dance, art, music, whatever it takes - that they are just a little unhinged about it.
one time my friend told me he stayed up all night researching how many ways there are to peel an orange. he wrote me a poem that made me cry on public transportation. the love came through it like pith, you know? the words all came apart in my hands. it tasted like breakfast.
