Lessons from organizing the collection and shipping of aid to the areas affected by the flash floods in Valencia

Nationalism still plays a deciding role in the subjectivity of the student body and broader population. The outpouring of popular support and individual donations eclipsed in 4 days the combined amount of attention for Palestine in a year, despite the death toll being ~10,000 times greater, and destruction orders of magnitude greater.

Periods of flux and reflux have been very heavily contrasted. The aid which reached us decreased substantially every single day. If the collection began on a Tuesday with an overwhelming amount of material, by Friday, barely a few people stopped by. This very clearly demonstrates the reactivity of the working class when it comes to facing an issue.

This reactivity also manifests in the things themselves that people donated. Valencia very quickly received tons of clothing, and by the second day, people in the ground unanimously said to stop donating clothes, and the official collection points set up by the state stopped accepting clothes. Despite this, clothes continued to be donated en-masse. In my collection point, around a tenth of all products donated was non-protective clothing. I think this is the case because of two reasons. First, because instead of buying products explicitly to donate, people emptied out their closets. Given how much clothing is just thrown away per capita each year, I think it's a safe assumption to take. Second, because instead of stopping to research what Valencia needed at the time, most people wished to donate something immediately, perhaps to feel better about having helped out, to forget about it by next week. The sharp dropoff in donations supports this.

In the organizing side of things, people are still heavily conditioned by reactivity. The collection point was at first spearheaded by two inexperienced people who by the end of the first day were already drowning in pessimism and burnout, stating that it was impossible to organize the ~50-70 people who were in some way involved at our collection point at the time. These are people with a very admirable instinct, but who lacked any tools, experience or even ideas to properly organize as was needed. This was magnified by the virtually no help given from the university's institutions.

Of the people willing to continue organizing the aid, there are some groups who stand out because of their focus on agitation to place political blame. While this is very necessary and not at all contradictory, their enthusiasm for this blame was inversely proportional to their enthusiasm for the collection of money or aid. These groups have transparently outed themselves as opportunists, grifters, and hippies.

We have not stopped organizing to continue to deliver aid, pivoting to the collection of money in order to buy the more expensive tools that nobody donates, such as shovels, water pumps, and more. Even as this continues, more and more people have lost all interest in helping. Valencia's most affected areas, workers' neighborhoods, still need help, and a good portion of the food that was donated will perish sooner rather than later. There has even been another flash flood, less destructive but still serious, in Málaga, and this time no official support networks have been set up.

So what can be concluded from this?

Activism is useless for any kind of defined political or social goal. Most of nothing has ever been achieved by a handful of people deciding to show up at a place and burn out in a few weeks. As things stand, we can't rely on coasting on the comings and goings of mass outcries, conditioned by that day's news cycle, and by a desire to never stray too far from one's individual behavior.

Any kind of political organization with its own goals must learn to have constant work, to set its own rhythms in periods of social calm such that burnout is avoided, but experience can still be scraped off every street, classroom and workplace. And it must also be prepared to encompass the rapid acceleration of a mass's movements, it should be ready for the limits of the organization to exceed themselves, and temporarily encompass those people willing to do temporary work within the organization's structure. This is how a social base is slowly built, and how communists can begin to demonstrate the validity of their positions properly. Not by being the most extreme voices for its own sake, or by unduly inserting ourselves into spaces without much sense, but by making whoever is willing an active participant of our own structures, methods and analyses.

Misconceptions about farming are so widespread.

Vegans. I hear you.

You can argue that we do not have the right to use the bodies of animals in the way that we do, and you can make a morally sound argument out of that. I fundamentally agree, I agree more with every passing year, and would be happy to back you up in a lot of arguments to this effect.

I don't think the way you regularly get attacked is fair, I also see the holes in many of the arguments made against you. I know that a lot of you are perfectly reasonable, knowledgeable people that I would be glad to know. I probably know a lot more of you than I think I do, because it's always the worst people who are the loudest.

But to the rest, if you have to use lies to prop up your moral stance, your moral stance is going to be perceived as fundamentally untrustworthy and dishonest, because that is how you have been acting.

If you lie, people are going to be very reluctant to publicly throw in with you or defend your moral positions because they do not want to be seen as associated with anybody who would spread absolute nonsense.

You especially need to be aware of wider environmental and social issues surrounding the food you propose as alternatives to products that involve using animals. There are times when you have to take the L because the alternative is worse, just easier on the conscience. Vegan leather and agave nectar come to mind. You need to push for better alternatives, that are cheaper and safer and better for animals and people and the environment. You can't just look at the fact that there is such a thing as vegan leather and say that the problem is solved. It hasn't been. Vegan leather is actually worse. They used your moral stance to make something worse, and to profit from it, and that actually should make you sick.

You need to intimately familiarize yourself with farm workers, and people who are trafficked or forced into that sort of labor, and work to make sure that shit stops happening. Humans don't deserve to be abused anymore than animals, especially not if they're working to grow the vegetables that you say people should eat in order to keep from being cruel.

You are not immune to propaganda, and if you are going to present proof of your claims, you have to be absolutely certain they are valid, and if you are going to take something that you are told or shown at face value, you actually do have to do the research and make sure that you have not been lied to. It sucks, but that's what activism is like. If material is shocking or off-putting, claims to come from a secret source, claims to be revealing the truth about some big lie or conspiracy, you really, really have to do your homework. That means reading stuff from the other side and doing your research. Sometimes it really sucks, I know.

You also have to accept that for some people, a vegan lifestyle is not feasible. Fully, I am not kidding you, genuinely, totally not possible. You have to acknowledge and trust those people when they tell you their barriers and their needs. If you can work to help, help. If you can't, be polite and let them manage their own lives. I am one of these people, the situation is incredibly complicated. It really pisses me off when I see people deny that what I experience is valid and say that I don't deserve to have accessible options that don't make me sick. We are not the only animals in the world who for some reason do not deserve to have dietary needs met in a way that is safe and sustainable. If you really want to help people like me, advocate for much higher SNAP benefits and Social Security benefits, and send somebody to my house to fix my stove and my sink for free, because neither are currently working. If all of that were done I could make a start. I still wouldn't be able to eat most vegetable matter without being in a lot of pain I don't deserve to be in.

And if you compare animals to humans in the context of slavery or trafficking or anything like that, I really think you deserve the shellacking you're going to get when you say that shit out loud. That is fully indefensible.

Also, please please please get rid of PETA. They're horrible people. And don't feed your pets vegan pet food unless they are animals that naturally eat only vegetable matter. That's abuse.

Sorry if any of this is weird I am using speech to text.

This is an opinion brought to you by a rancher, who knows quite a few other ranchers and dairy farms.

I recently watched a documentary called Earthlings, which gets praised on a lot in the Vegan, animal rights, and animal welfare tags.

This documentary is complete, biased, exaggerated, and twisted bullshit (At least when it comes to beef and dairy, which is what I’m talking about)

It opens on beef with branding, showing an animal being hot ironed on the face. In my state, you cannot register to brand a cow on a face. In fact, the face is the least common branding site available, as it can damage the cow’s jaw and make it difficult for her to eat. The most common branding site is the hip, rib, and shoulder, but the documentary simply says, cows are branded on their face.

Does it say why? No. Because obviously we scar our animals for fun, right? Cattle don’t have microchips like a dog. If your dog gets stolen, you can usually find it because of it’s Microchipped. Cows don’t have that. Cows are so expensive, they’re like gold, so often Ranchers brand their cattle. If a cow has a brand, she cannot be sold without the brand owner’s authorization, meaning, someone can not steal young, healthy animals from my pasture, and sell them for slaughter.

Next they go on to dehorning, stating that it is cruel, painful, and often done with simple pliers. HAaha.

If I have an animal, I don’t want to ruin it by painfully tearing off it’s horns. This animal will never let me touch it again!

Most cattle, and I DO mean most, are dehorned either as calves (Less painful, not remembered), or have a shot to numb the area at the base of the horn before it’s CUT off, not YANKED off. This way, the cow can still be handled.

Does the documentary say WHY cattle are dehorned? Does it mention that a cow with horns is a danger to itself, humans, and other animals? No? Of course not!

Beef cattle are not stuffed into trailers until it’s so full the animals die. This makes absolutely no sense. If the animals die before they reach the sale ring or slaughter house, no paycheck for you! You make less money if the animals die before slaughter.

Nothing the documentary covers is explained why. WHY do they do that? It’s biased. It makes it seem like ranchers and farmers WANT to hurt their cattle. They don’t. Most of us get attached to our cows. It exaggerates EVERYTHING

Dairy

According to the documentary, Dairy cattle are CHAINED to their stalls, in their own feces, with no water or food, pumped full of hormones to make them milk more. Wrong.

A dairy barn consists of a long isle down the middle of the barn, with a large alley on each side for the cattle. The cattle can walk down the main alley, or lay in a padded stall. They can stick their head through railings to eat food specially mixed to meet all their needs, or drink water. Dairy barns, because they produce milk that MUST be clean, cannot milk a cow pumped full or hormones and chemicals, and clean their barns daily to avoid bacteria. WOW! It’s almost like we take care of our animals so they produce! WHO KNEW?

Most dairy cattle are allowed to graze in a pasture with their calves, until they’re milked in the morning and the evening. Others keep their cows in a well airated barn. Calves are removed to avoid injury! Calves are often kept it smaller pens, with calf huts, pads, soft bedding, and even blankets! It is counter productive to not care for a calf. A calf is your future cow! Dairy farmers feed them the highest quality milk so the calves grow into strong, productive animals.

Dieing cows are not left in the isles. If a cow begins to appear sick, a vet is called. Simple as that.

The documentary states that a cow’s lifespan can reach 20. WRONG. at the age of 8 or 9, a cow starts to lose her teeth. If you kept a cow alive until 20 she would be malnourished and miserable, unable to eat. The average cow lives until 8 or 9, at which point they are sold. It would be cruel to keep an animal who cannot eat or fulfill it’s own needs.

Cows do not, on average, die at FOUR YEARS OLD because of exhaustion! Four years, at almost any dairy or ranch you visit, is a cow in her PRIME! We do not run our animals to death. We do NOT torture them.

You don’t eat meat? Great! Do your thing! Eat your veggies! That’s fine! But don’t make me out to be devilspawn if I eat meat. Don’t make me out to be cruel, (As stated by the documentary, as cruel as hitler to the jews), because I raise cattle. Fuck. You.

The shit thing about that documentary is it preys on people who have never been on a farm or dairy. If you’ve never been to one, it’s easy to believe things like this. If I made a documentary about how vegans grew their food, and showed it to people who have never met Vegans, or seen how crops are grown, I could easily exaggerate and make Veganism seem horrible, like this documentary does to livestock owners.

Please stop hating on ranchers and farmers. Please?

Author Note; I know absolutely zero things about cars, I had to research as I wrote so I apologize if anything is wrong. bare with me 🙏

~~~

Cars have been your thing for years, ever since you were a kid in your dad's shop. They'd been your whole life. And when you finally got your first car, a BMW I series 2013, you put your heart and soul into that car. Your dad had managed to get it used, knowing that you would be able to fix it no problem. Make it good as new. That was your talent.

It's been a few days and right now you were under the car. Tinkering away at finer details, bringing it to your exact mental image. Which was quite complex for what the car was. As you worked, you failed to notice your girlfriends enter the garage. Gretchen and Karen sharing a glance with a certain gleam in their eyes. Regina with her arms folded, eyes never leaving the spot where she knew you were working under the car. They loved coming to watch you. Seeing you all dirtied up, the way your muscles flexed and how you seemed to know just about everything in this field. It was beyond hot. Honestly, hot may have been not the right word to describe the sight. What's better than hot? Mm, holy? Godly? Something like that.

Probably would have gone the whole time without noticing them. If not for Regina's cat call whistle. Your heart practically leapt out of your chest at the sudden sound, flinching so hard all your limbs hit the bottom of the car. "Ah- fuck-" You grunted, giving your head a rub after smacking it on the surface. Christ. You rolled out from underneath, the creeper (the little thing with wheels that mechanics lay on) sliding along with practiced ease. Your head popped out from under as you looked at your girlfriends. Who were losing it laughing. "Ow." You murmured.

Regina walked over and crouched in front of you, giving your cheek a little squeeze before she wiped the oil smear from it. Only making it worse. Which was her real intention. Then she kissed you. Your lips moving against hers with a force that got a noise out of you. She pulled away, watching you with hints of desire in her eyes. "Better?" Regina had a smug grin across her lips but you nodded.

"Loads.." You pushed out further, getting off the creeper and stretching. A bunch of your bones cracked with your movement, making you grimace and shake your arms a bit," damn. Never gets any easier coming up from there."

Gretchen chuckles and walks over to you, wrapping an arm around your waist. Hardly minding how dirty your work clothes were," so... we have a little issue. With Reggie's jeep." Her hand rests on your chest, getting your attention.

"Issue? Like what?" You look at Regina for an explanation, since it was her jeep and all. Regina plays innocent, as though she totally did nothing to it. Because why would she ruin her own car? It's not like she had a hot mechanic partner she'd get to watch fix it... nope, she sees no reason for why she would ruin it.

"Oh... I was supposed to get an oil change a while ago. Like two weeks or something. Didn't feel like it," Regina shrugged, looking down at her nails. Her tone laced with innocence. You cringed at that. How Regina was even able to use her jeep right now you weren't sure, the engine had to be fucked up.

"Regina. You're going to completely fuck over your car," You sighed. Walking out of the garage at a slight jog to check on the jeep. Regina smirked as she watched you run, admiring the certain... aspects of your body. She glanced at Gretchen and the two shared a silent amusement. While Karen looked a little worried for the car too, following after you.

"Will the car be okay?" Karen asked, looking at you as you pop open the hood. You look at her and give Karen a quick kiss.

"Ain't no car I can't fix. Don't worry," You smiled and got to work. Giving everything a quick once over in the hood before even trying to go under the car to drain it. That's when you noticed something. A whole ass spark plug was missing. What the fuck? Your eyes widened and your head snapped over to Regina. Who was walking over to you with her arms across her chest and Gretchen behind her.

"How do you have a whole ass missing spark plug?" You asked, Regina just shrugged again.

"I dunno." She took it when she got here. That's how. You sighed deeply. Who knew your own girlfriend was your hardest client.

You went back to your garage, grabbing a few tools. You didn't want to drive the jeep in. Just in case you fucked it up further. So you brought the equipment to it. Getting it work while your girlfriends watched in amusement.

🏛 👑⚔️"Gladiator II" thoughts 🏛 👑⚔️

Before I start, I have to say that (and please don't throw me into the Colosseum for this) I think the first "Gladiator" is just okay. A solid epic historical/action flick, sure, but to me it's no more than that. And... well, "Gladiator II" is more or less the same, but with a less tight script and therefore less emotional resonance.

It's my biggest issue with the movie. The spectacles are great and the action sequences are solid, but I'm not interested in any of the characters (with the exception of the emperors and Macrinus.) They're all very one-note. To be fair, Acacius doesn't require a lot of dimensions and Pedro did a good job with the character, but Lucius and Lucilla... meh. For a movie that is 148 minutes long, it feels oddly rushed; I felt like I never had the time to get to know the characters or become invested in their fates.

On to the good parts: like I said, the emperors and Macrinus. The review that says Denzel is acting on another level and Joe is the only one that comes close to matching him is spot-on. Out of all the characters, Geta and Macrinus are the only two with some depth. Denzel is amazing, affable and gregarious one minute and then chilling and menacing the next. As for Geta, maybe I'm just biased, but it's so easy to make him one-dimensional too, except Joe imbued the character with nuance and subtlety, so although we don't get to spend a lot of time with them, we understand these two emperors and their dynamic very well. Fred also did great with Caracalla - in fact, if his character wasn't so deranged and erratic and Fred didn't play that to perfection, Geta wouldn't stand out as the sane one as much as he did. They really were the perfect double act.

OK, so those are my spoiler-free thoughts. If you haven't seen the movie, click away now! It's going to be all spoilers from here! This is your last warning! (Oh and I'll start posting my Geta fic next Tuesday. Here's a preview; if you want to be tagged, drop me a comment!)

Now if you don't mind spoilers, read on...

When we found out that Ridley Scott had done a switcheroo and made Geta the elder brother (interestingly, the subtitle at my theater has Caracalla as the elder, which suggests the translator did more historical research than Sir Ridley and his writer!), I guessed that the movie would still follow a bit of historical facts with Macrinus manipulates Caracalla into killing Geta (OK, the bit about Macrinus manipulating Caracalla is not historical, but Caracalla killing Geta is), and then Macrinus would kill Caracalla to take the throne. Well...

And Geta's death is... my God. I gasped out loud in the theater. The head afterward was a bit goofy, but I can't say it's not effective. Poor Joe. Not only his characters always get killed, they often get killed in the gnarliest ways too.

I'm very annoyed at those early reports saying that the emperors have about 20-30 minutes of screen time though. It's more like 10! This video?

That's basically all of Joe's scenes! (Fred gets more, obviously, but not by much.)

And again, I wish they would stop using cut scenes as promo (like with AQPD1), because this still?

Never happens.

The final fight between Lucius and Macrinus is weirdly anti-climactic. Macrinus is never set up as a great fighter anyway, so there is no tension in Lucius facing him.

Also, I know I complain a lot about the lack of historical accuracies, but the ending particularly annoys me because it makes it seem like Rome is finally getting better, except it wasn't! After the terrible reign of Caracalla, we get the even worse reign of Elagabalus, and then Severus Alexander, which is basically the calm before the storm that is the Crisis of the Third Century. So if Sir Ridley is doing "Gladiator III", I'd like to see how he wriggles his way out of that!

SDV Headcanons: Sam 2/?

I promise I sometimes think about the other characters (keyword: sometimes) but Sam's pull is just too strong, what's a girl to do, I've got to gravitate.

Sam having a crush headcanons:

Long, insisting stares. Nothing weird or uncomfortable, he'd just kind of get lost in thought looking at you, a faint smile plastered on his face and his eyes drinking in your every change in expression. If you caught him and called him out on it, he'd probably sheepishly apologize, grinning like a dummy and laughing about it. He might try to flirt if he felt comfortable enough, "sorry you kinda took my breath away just now". He's a bit of a goofy flirt.

Always scanning the area for a glimpse of you. Not to spy on you or anything, you'd just kind of be like his daily dose of sunshine and he'd just literally function on that energy he gets when he sees you. Not only that but he'd want to make sure you look ok. If you seemed tired or down, he'd try to help out and make you feel better. Sam really does care, and he'd want that smile of yours to be showing always.

He'd want to learn about whatever it is that you like and about your hobbies. Even if you were interested in something he wouldn't really have cared about prior to knowing you, he would research it and try to learn about it so he can bring it up when you're hanging out. He'd even go as far as trying it out with you if that was a possibility. The same way he loves for you to take an interest in his hobbies, he wants you to feel appreciated and comforted in the idea that he is genuinely interested in what makes you happy.

He would slowly yet surely try to use pet names when addressing you. At first he would maybe drop one jokingly, saying it in an overly exaggerated tone, and then it'd become some sort of habit. He'd call for your attention using it and enjoy the fact it was something special between the two of you.

Regardless of whether or not you felt the same way about him as he did you, Sam wouldn't want to lose your friendship. He would have fallen for you because of who you are and even if he had to let his crush go or keep it to himself, he wouldn't sacrifice any bit of the bond you share together no matter your feelings. If anything, he'd probably keep on admiring you and cherishing you, but he would try to make it so that he's not burdening you with it.

Sam is definitely big on PDA. He would want to be close to you. His arm brushing against yours, his head centimeters away from yours while you're showing him something on your phone or in a magazine, his hand gently resting on the small of your back, even touching your hands while he's daydreaming or talking about something he's especially passionate about... this man craves for your touch and he'll take as much as you give him as long as you're comfortable giving it. He'll respect your boundaries, no justification needed.

Sam wants to hug everyone. But especially you. Oh you're saying hello? Here's one as a morning treat. You've done something you're embarrassed or shy about? No worries, he's got you... he'll hide you in a strong warm bear hug. Feeling like the world is beating down on you? He'd hold you so tight you would feel like nothing else exists outside of him and his reassuring smell. There is nothing better than a hug for him to show you he's there and will be there for you no matter what.

He will bring you whatever reminds him of you. A flower on the way home that wore your favorite colors? It's yours now. That little keychain that looked cute and had your vibe? Hey, better have some spare space on that key ring clip. A new yummy pastry made of your favorite flavors his eyes stopped on while ordering his go-to pizza? It's free food delivery time o'clock baby. You might need some sort of box to store all of these if we're being honest because he just won't stop.

Sam would become very protective of you. He is very protective of the people he cares about in general, but with those feelings for you, he would want to make sure everyone knows that if they crossed you the wrong way he'd make them eat their audacity. Not that he believes that you can't handle yourself, he's actually quite proud to boast about how strong and cool and amazing you are at any given opportunity, but there's just that little itch in him that pushes him to want to make sure no harm is every in the way of getting done to you. If he had to take a punch for you, he'd do it and not bat an eye.

He will be your hype man. If you ever feel like shit or you can't make peace with yourself on a particular day, he'll throw those compliments at you as fast as Pierre would run after that 1 gold coin. And nothing disingenuous, it's all heartfelt and he means all of it. He won't let you beat yourself up, he'll make sure that his voice is louder than any other that might try to put you down, even your own. You are precious to him, and he will make it a point to have you know in excruciating details exactly why you are.

Another tell tale sign of his falling for you would be the changes in lyrics regarding the songs he usually hums to himself. While he'd usually go for empowering songs, falling for you he'd catch himself listening to slower, more romantic songs with all those sappy lyrics he kinda made fun of before. And he'd listen to them on repeat, lying down on his bed, looking at the ceiling and just picturing your face as the melody goes. He'd have them stuck in his head so much he'd mindlessly sing them around you or others. Seb wouldn't let him live it down.

that was us

abby tears her rotator cuff and doesn't get her range of motion back after the surgery and rehab. she quits swimming.

one of her friends is going through med school and they go out together sometimes, and there's a rotating group of first responders who come out with the residents because they've gotten to know each other at the hospital.

she's not really in a partying mood, and sometimes she can drift to the back of the group and talk with the tall firefighter who looks as awkward as she feels. they spend an entire evening dissecting love actually and debating if die hard can be seen as the sequel where alan rickman's character finally gets what he deserves.

she tries training other swimmers. but some of them are the people she competed with, the rest are babies, and other than "you really shouldn't exceed the coach's orders on practice time" and "maybe don't go to a roller rink when you're not great on rollerskates", she doesn't have much to teach them. they've already got their forms down, and while she can hold their arms in the proper positions, she can't show it to them in the pool without aching for the rest of practice. the doctors warn her that if she keeps trying she might end up with more damage.

she gets a receptionist position. it's fine. it's boring. she learns how to balance a company's books and how to direct visitors to the correct office.

she and the firefighter (tommy) spend two months at the bar debating the 1995 bbc pride and prejudice.

she quits her job. abby says she wants to do something that means something. a friend of her friend looks at abby and suggests she tries dispatch. what the hell. it's three months of training. it's not like she's getting roped into eight years of med school.

the first time she's able to help someone at dispatch it feels like winning a race.

she asks tommy if he wants to grab a coffee.

it's really easy to talk to tommy. they recommend books to each other, go to the movies a lot. they date casually. abby's not sure she wants something serious right now. they spend weeks hitting up every small hole in the wall they can find.

abby offers to bring tommy lunch at the fire house. his face does something complicated and he admits that his captain isn't a great guy. tommy would rather keep abby away from him.

she tells him if it gets worse he should try and switch houses.

tommy finishes his probationary year and takes abby out to the fanciest restaurant she's ever been to. they both hate it and end up grabbing a burger on the way home.

they're not living together but they are spending almost every night together. abby gets a lead on a gorgeous apartment fifteen minutes away from dispatch. tommy and his friend sal help her move all her furniture in. tommy's lease was renewed before she found out about the apartment, but he's over so much it barely matters.

the family introduction goes well. he charms her mother and her brother thinks he's pretty great, choices in sports teams aside. three months after she moves into her new place, tommy makes her dinner and proposes.

(it's so much better than the fancy restaurant.)

she catches him looking at houses. it's just a thought he has, finding a place that needs to be fixed up. maybe he keeps it, maybe he sells it later, but there are so many places around town that just need a little love to be good again.

the housing market crashes in the recession and tommy finds a small two-storey place that's closer to the harbor station, which is when abby finds out that tommy wants to fly again, he's just waiting for a spot to open.

she thinks that's much safer than running into burning buildings, but she doesn't say that out loud.

he signs for the house the next day, and abby starts looking at paint chips. she's not much for do it yourself, but she knows how to paint a mean wall. it's an older house and she does research about what colours were common when they were built, knows that tommy wants to preserve the original house as much as possible.

she's priming the newly drywalled living room when there's a loud curse from down the hall and the sledgehammer tommy is using to tear down the kitchen crashes into the wall.

his captain tanked tommy's transfer to harbor.

tommy's miserable. she doesn't know what to say to make it better, because there is no way to make that better.

abby knows what's coming when he sits her down a few weeks later. (if he hadn't, she was going to.) she leaves the ring on the kitchen island. it's the only thing that survived the sledgehammer. part of her wants to ask for updates on the house. the rest of her knows a clean break is better.

"i really hope you get what you need."

and that's that.

part two

do you have any advice on like getting better with writing?

hey! i definitely do!! i’ve talked about this before but i have a lot of new readers, so ill start off by saying i’ve been writing for my entire life, and im 30 so thats a lot of years. if you’re a new writer, trust me i used to be there and good god if you guys could see the stuff i published in old fandoms 💀 really, really bad haha

i only say that because i by no means consider myself a great writer, there are fic writers in this space alone that i’m always so floored by and look up to…. but people have been very kind about my writing style and it’s something that took time to develop it’s not something i just “had”. outside of fic, i was a literature and creative writing major, and got very used to writing and workshopping pieces.

now! onto some actual advice —

1. read a lot and read more, but read stuff you actually like and not stuff you feel pressured to read. i love high brow litfic as much as the next pretentious english major, but i started writing a ton after reading a bunch of kindle unlimited romance because it was fun and it got me inspired

2. watch well written television for dialogue and pacing. people do not talk in proper english, they don’t say things eloquently, and there’s a lot of filler and fluff. that’s good! that’s real, so i love well written tv to show me how it’s done

3. get comfortable writing in weird ways. for years i used to sit down and be like “ah okay so chapter one” and then i was stuck, stalled out, and just felt bad about the process. when i started writing both aurora and tnt, i started in the middle. i had an image of a scene in my mind (for tnt it was actually the claim attempt) and i just wrote it out and then bounced around later

4. outlines are your friend! sometimes i’ll get a random line of dialogue in my head or an image but that doesn’t mean i’m ready to write it. i throw it in one big outline so i don’t lose it.

5. if you’re wanting to write really good smut i have two suggestions but please only do this to your personal comfort level. this is what works for me but do not make yourself uncomfortable— for good smut, i watch porn for reference and for good dirty talk, i listen to nsfw audio. i like to really write the visuals for smut and make it immersive but lol i haven’t experienced everything ive written about and logistics of the body are hard!! i usually find a video or an audio and let that help guide the imagery im writing.

6. be comfortable with the editing process. i know the temptation to post something the minute you finish it is there, but sleep on it. come back and edit it, read the dialogue out loud if you have to. i swear you’ll make the piece better just by leaving it and coming back.

7. don’t be afraid to post. most people are kind, and the worst thing that will happen is you don’t get a lot of notes. that’s okay, it’s a process.

8. research! as i’m writing anything, even a silly little oneshot, im doing research on something. i am hyper aware that im not korean and have never spoken korean or lived in korea, so for my fic i try my hardest to ground elements of that in reality. i truly cannot tell you how many hours ive spent reading like korean case law on revenge porn just for like 3 lines of dialogue. and you don’t have to go that crazy, i’m arguably too intense, but i do think some of that helps the story and the dialogue feel real.

9. describe something real- every place in my writing is based on something real. every apartment, hotel, cafe, venue, etc., they’re all either something i’ve found online or drawn from my life and use that to my advantage. i use apartment listings and save photographs, i do google map walks to see what neighborhoods look like, anything to get the feel of a place or an experience. for the christmas chapters of aurora, i watched hours of gwangju walking tour videos on youtube while i was writing just to understand how to describe their walk in the snow. it really helps me to have a visual that i can put words to.

10. find your weak points and see what other writers do differently. if you want to improve, you should find a small place to start. is it dialogue? overall plot? smut? etc. - i’ll never forget being on a creative writing retreat, and a very important writing professor said to me “everything you write is very pretty but you haven’t said anything. you have to decide to say something.” that feedback hurt, but sent me down a much better writing path when i realized where i was falling short and not challenging myself.

okay i hope some of this was helpful and if it’s a mess im sorry im on mobile. i really just love writing so deeply and will always talk about it, so i hope this was helpful 💗

NIGHTMARE WITH OSDD

I love your headcanon and I'm going to take it and it into a 5-star meal🙏

May I have more please🙏😔 /nf

I love NM with OSDD!!! Yay!!! Free ramble pass!!!!

There are so many good options for this. I'm gonna go with fuzzy system of 5, where Nightmare(the corruption) is their host, Night(little guy before the apple whoopsidoodle), Moon(the hurt, scared, grown up version of Night), Dream(little guy before the apple whoopsie doodle), and Sun(a grown up Dream. The kind of brother he wanted and needed, but never quite got.) Lots of fuzzy cofronting, lots of gray amnesia and emotional amnesia with occasional blackouts.

Silly BSP hyjinks ideas:

Nightmare worrying, trying to find one of his boys because he doesn't remember that he sent them out on a mission that morning. (Killer finds him and reminds him that Dust and Horror are out on a mission, and not to worry about them)

Horror finding out they're plural and learning that alters have different tastes??? He would be so excited to figure out everyone's favorite food!!!

Cross learns NM is plural and immediately does all the research possible so he knows he isn't accidentally being offensive, and also so he can be more helpful. (He has to be the helpfulest all the time! That's what he's good for!)(he is so mentally ill)

Killer does the research in secret and then purposefully says ignorant shit so Cross gets scandalized and NM gets to watch them argue and have a little snack on Crossy's indignance and terror. NM knows he's being annoying on purpose because he starts doing really considerate shit without being outward about it. (Bringing back a bunch of sticky notes in different shapes and colors from his missions, casually asking him how to be more helpful, wrapping him in a blanket and laying on him when he's dissociating into high hell so he's nice and grounded, or just cuddling with him while he's having a long, slow switch. Bringing him water and headache medicine once it's leveled out, catching up whoever is in front now, making sure they know they're safe...)

Dust is obscenely good at telling who's fronting. He noticed way before Nightmare told any of them. "[Shrug] Shit didn't add up," is all he says about that. Nightmare has no idea what that means, but at least Dust can tell him he's doing the hand wringing thing that Night always does when he's fronting, so he can tell who's cofronting and giving him a massive migrane. He's just very watchful.

Evil ideas:

Moon is so frightened and overwhelmingly broken, for a long time. Nightmare can tell he's near front when he starts to feel tearful and hurt seemingly without reason.

Sun lashing out at one of the boys because he feels like they're being threatened (the boys are trying to be nice to him)

Sun feels helpless in the body because he has near no control over their tentacles. He can't protect them and that's very scary for him. He doesn't like feeling out of control.

Night had a phase where he would write in books, Nightmare hated this.

Sun has a habit of trying to convince the boys to leave them because he doesn't want anyone close to them. He feels like he has something to make up for, with all that Moon went through. He feels so much pressure to be better than Dream ever was to them.

More silly to cleanse the owie:

Nightmare's system is relatively functional and stable once Sun gets off his "hurt them before they hurt us!!" Horse.

Sun has a silly lil crush on Killer that he will vehemently deny if asked about.

They're silly and I love them.

Holy fucking shit, says you?

@theinfernalcollective We met you in 2016. We spent every moment at group together, got yelled at because we never stopped talking and laughing with each other. We left group because we had to move away, but we kept your dad's business card you gave us because we didn't have another way to talk to you.

We found out we were queer because of you, and we were bullied relentlessly for it. We spent a lunch with you and it put a target on us for months, until we dropped out of school. But we still had your dad's card and later, finally, managed to find a way to keep in touch with you. We tried desperately to find ways to help you when you lost your cat, whom you loved, so dearly. We drew a Christmas card with a dragon on it because you were obsessed with dragons and gave it to you. We still have it somewhere, you never took it with you.

We're your ex. We dated. We helped you make a prop sword from SOW because you absolutely loved the series. You were going to make a furry head for us in return, you tried so many times. You sat on our bedroom floor drawing out the pattern, and when you messed it up, we hugged you, fixed it for you, and finished it. We stopped talking because you insulted us for being Otherkin, but it still hung above your doorway, you found it funny that we strengthened it with the handles of paintbrushes, our paintbrushes we took apart so the sword would be strong enough for you.

We met your partner at work, talked about art and Wicca. They were deadnaming and misgendering you and we mentioned it to you, because we were worried something was wrong. We had just started talking to you again because even after what you said, we forgave it because we wanted to be friends with you still. You invited us to stay the night with you and your partner, and we did. You and us and your partner went into town, and you bought buns, and shared them with us, causing a little to switch in because you made us happy. We went on a walk together in the evening and we went on a ramble about being Otherkin, because we wanted to help you understand what it meant to us, even if it was weird to you.

Then you stuck us in a VR horror game, recorded it and posted us on TikTok without telling us, and when we looked on your profile, you stated clearly you were anti-endo. Even though we helped you learn about plurality when you were asking us why you felt wrong, and we were trying to help you feel better. We taught you about Tulpamancy because you felt like you weren't ready to address your trauma yet, and you had possible causes for accidental Tulpamancy, we remembered because before that, you talked to us about how meds negatively affected your ADHD. We went through diagnostic criteria with you because you wanted help, and we wanted to help you, so much. You knew we were pro-endo from the start. And when we brought it up to you later over text, your partner compared arguing over it to fighting over a toy. Debating somebody's identity and existence, the equivalent of fighting over a toy. We didn't message again after that.

Much later, you reached out to us in the comments of one of our TikToks. You told us you were sorry, and wanted to learn about endos so that you could support them. We messaged you, and we started talking again, if only for a bit, where we are explained non-traumagenic plurality to you. We didn't even have our document then, hadn't even thought about making it, but we still went through all our lists of research to find things for you. You told us you understood, and although we still didn't talk a lot after that, we made sure you knew we would always, always be around, if ever you needed anything, if you ever needed something from us, if you needed help.

Then we started talking again, we were more active on the social media you were on because of our husband @theharbingerofxhaos . A little bit after we started talking again, your partner came up to us and Xhaos at work and asked why we weren't talking to you. Honestly it was strange, we barely knew your partner, barely even knew their name, we hadn't talked to them before except for the time at yours. But we ignored it because, hey, maybe you'd been wanting to talk to us again, too.

This time we made sure you were safe for us to be around, though. We asked about non-traumagenic plurality. You told us you were just sort of endo-neutral, they existed and that was fine, and we made sure you knew you could ask if you needed any more information on them.

Our husband's already posted about this a few times now.

We discussed other things as we talked. We helped you around the queer group here. Helped you with HRT. Taught you about RAMCOA because we were questioning if we experienced it, and we probably did. The racism of Wendigos, the awful Hazbin Hotel creator. You came to us about an argument over all nonbinary people being transgender, and we let you know that not everyone who is gender non-conforming considers themself under the trans umbrella. Little things. We were always there if you needed us, always. You mentioned difficulties you were having with your partner, and we tried to help, suggested talking to them about some of the issues you were having, even if it was difficult.

Then you started coming to our partner's Twitch streams, a neurodivergent, endogenic, Otherkin-safe space. And started flirting with her and us. Then you started commenting about us. Talked about having a crush on someone, asked us if we were polyam. Talked about how hot us and our husband were, little uncomfortable, and we told you that, over and over again because you kept going.

Then you asked us on a date, on Valentines day, while you have a partner, and we're married. Hell of a lot more than a little uncomfortable, and we told you that too.

We should have noticed it then, or even before that, but we didn't.

We supported your TikTok account you had started making about being a system. Helped you with anything you needed, since we had been on it for a while at that point.

You posted a video on systemcringe, and we talked with you about how absolutely horrendous and harmful of a subreddit it is, and you agreed.

Then you posted a video on endogenic systems, where you said you believed they were just traumagenic systems in denial. We talked to you about it, or tried to, said that it is not endo-neutral, it's anti-endo, because you believe they don't exist. And you argued with us about it, and talked about how they don't exist. How they don't exist, because you had read a book on dissociative parts, and didn't understand the research and sources that we were sending you. Despite somehow understanding a book on dissociative parts, although you also told us you'd only believe a source if it were a physical book and you read it.

It went on, and on, and eventually we'd had enough, and blocked you.

We wanted that to be the end of it. But then we saw you on Twitter, where you reposted Hazbin Hotel content after we told you it was racist. Then we saw you on Reddit too, and remembered how you told us you don't have an account on other social media.

You'd lied to us. You'd lied to us about being safe to be around. Our husband is mixed origins. We have non-traumagenic headmates. We were self-diagnosed before we got an actual diagnosis, and we are still struggling with finding support. It's a privilege to get a diagnosis, funded or not, because of how much it can fuck up somebody's life.

You say professionals know best, but you should know the mortality rates of marginalised folks who are ignored by doctors, because you are in multiple marginalised communities. You've experienced it yourself, you know yourself better than many professionals you've seen, saying otherwise is hypocritical and erasing so, so many experiences. You use your psychiatrist's words to fakeclaim endogenic systems, say she knows best because she does ACC Sensitive Claims. Your psychiatrist is a fitness coach, and taking Sensitive Claims has nothing to do with how experienced she is in trauma. We'd told you before how we'd seen a clinical psychologist with 11+ years of experience in the field of trauma who supports endogenic plurality. But like you it was told to us in private during a session. We have no record of it, so we try not to go around telling everybody. And if he suddenly changed his opinion, we would hear him out about why. But you do, and say otherwise. You use your psychiatrist's words to harass people. You participate in making fun of and fakeclaiming systems, RAMCOA, disorderd, traumatised, and not, in your own space and in horrifically shitty places like systemcringe that absolutely hate you, that you know are bad, that harm people like you. We've been posted in places like that and we were harassed endlessly, for weeks. You support abusers, not just online but in real life too, abusers that we know, and have abused us. You went through trauma yourself. You have been abused and harassed and treated like shit. But you've doing it to other people. You lied to us, gaslit and manipulated us, told us you were safe to be around, because you wanted to hook up with us. That's fucking pitiful. You've tried to interact with us again and again after we blocked you, at public events, in private communities. We've had to make a report about you irl because you're putting people in your own communities in danger with what you're doing, both online and irl.

"They take the slightest negativity against endos as the biggest thing." You lied to us and manipulated us over and over and over again. You are putting your own communities in danger. You even know full well that we don't use "they".

You were so, so important to us when we were younger, but now you'd tell us and our husband to suffer because we experience things differently to you, and support those who expereince things differently to you.

You talk about being fakeclaimed, you talk about being sent death threats, about being sent triggers, yet you do those and support people who do those. You say a diagnosis isn't something to be scared of, that it can't take away autonomy, except it literally does and has for millions of people. Just look at "hysteria". Psychiatrists can be sexist, racist, transphobic, ableist, those exist and they exist everywhere. Marginalised people who were given an incorrect diagnosis to limit what they can do exist, everywhere. A diagnosis can be used to take away whatever control you have over yourself. You can be forced into a psych ward. You can be forced into harmful treatment. You can be deemed unable to take care of yourself. You can lose the ability to go to school, to get a job, to get a license, to move to another country, because of a diagnosis. Just because it hasn't happened to you doesn't mean it hasn't happened. It's happened to us. We've been denied support because we were diagnosed with anxiety instead of autism, before we were reassessed. We were nearly forced into a psych ward for having DID. We've been denied support for being diagnosed with gender identity disorder. Our husband struggled moving countries alongside her family because of her autism diagnosis, despite already having full citizenship. Having your DID diagnosis would stop you from accessing HRT in multiple places. A diagnosis can, will, and has got so many people killed. It is a privilege to be able to have one.

We wish so badly that you would listen. That you would stop lying, that you would stop being abusive. You didn't used to be. But what we want more is for you to just leave us and our husband the fuck alone. Stop trying to be friendly to us when you would harass us. We see each other as different people because that's what we are and what we've always been. We're not different from those you tell to suffer just because we were friends.

Don't bother responding. We unblocked you so we could send this, and we're going to block you again. If you keep trying to talk to us IRL we're going to get a restraining order against you. You lied to us, manipulated us, said you were safe, so you could try to fuck us. You caused us trauma that's fucked up an entire year of our life. Leave us alone.

Attention: After Talking to Another Real System, I've Come to Believe That the Endo Community is Being Infiltrated and Controlled by CIA Operatives

I need everyone to be aware and be vigilant because the threat is real. The endogenic community was invented to divide us and keep us distracted.

Having combed over several big potential CIA operatives, I've narrowed the field down to four possibilities. Remember that any or all of these could be CIA operatives, but I'm certain at least one has to be.

Possible CIA plants

@guardianssystem: This system claims to be a pro-endo "traumagenic" system as a way to give themselves authority. They have activity across multiple websites including TikTok and X. They're notable for compiling this document of "sources" to prove endos exist. This document is everywhere. It has suspiciously become the main compilation of endo sources that they love to link to at every turn.

@cambriancrew: They're a tulpa "system" who runs r/tulpas. For anyone who doesn't know, "tulpamancy" is essentially a form of brainwashing. Tulpamancers say they can change a person's brain to give them headmates, and they've convinced multiple "doctors" to back them. All of this sounds like MK Ultra stuff. Cambrian Crew, besides being an outspoken endo, appears to be well connected, and used those connections to help organize an AMA on r/tulpas. In this AMA, their CIA-paid doctors claimed to have conducted brain scans on tulpamancers that showed changes in brain activity when their tulpas were possessing limbs.

@sysmedsaresexist: A nefarious saboteur, Sysmedsaresexist posed as a prominent anti-endo voice for YEARS, building up a massive anti endo following on this site. Between their SysmedsAreSexist and JustAnotherSyscourse blogs, they practically single-handedly ran the "#shit endos say" tag dedicated to mocking endos. But then all of a sudden, they turn? And like CambrianCrew, SysmedsAreSexist appears to have a close relationship to "doctors," posting a screenshot of an email from Colin Ross, an expert in DID, that appears to support the existence of endogenic systems. All of this looks like a years-long psyop to gain people's trust and convert them.

@sophieinwonderland: Finally, that brings us to Sophie, another tulpa "system." She also has her own page filled with endo "sources" though not as detailed or widely disseminated as Guardians'. The more I looked into this one, the more disturbed I became. Sophie is, as far as I can tell, the system who started "The Future is Plural," the mass movement which we all know seeks to traumatize children en masse and give them dissociative disorders. She also openly brags about teaching people methods to dissociate and hallucinate, says that she believes she can rewire people's brains, and cheerfully is arguing in favor of propaganda.

Please, whatever you do, do not engage with these people. Not only to avoid harassing them, but because if they are indeed CIA operatives, it may not be safe to do so directly. I may be putting myself at risk just by talking about this aloud, and I believe they're already trying to discredit me, but I feel someone has to talk about this.

Community input in finding the spies is incredibly important.

Knowing all of the facts, I'd like to know who you all think is most likely a CIA operative.

The 'Baron replaces Riz' stuff has made my brain bring a REALLY dark way it could go…

cw - suicide

The way everyone is looking at Riz, thinking he might turn evil again, becomes too much to bear for him so he finds a fast acting poison used for goblins and sneaks away to take it. Even though he knows it's likely he won't end up in Bytopia with his dad, wherever he does end up has to be better. (He actually ends up in Cassandra's heaven because they feel partially responsible due to Baron seemingly being a creation of the Nightmare King). By the time they find him; for an additional twist of the knife, their new rouge is the one who finds the body; it's too late. Kristen tries Raise Dead but it doesn't work. The soul has to be willing, after all.

oh no

He has everything he needs to get back to the past but there's ONE problem in his plan that he's realising with creeping dread. He's not a wizard. He cant actually cast the spell and he's stuck like this now.

It's too much for him. He abandons the stolen research where he knows his ex-party will find it and leaves. He dies. They can't revive him and, now that they know it was really their friend they're heartbroken. They drove him to this with how they were treating him and Aelwyns mental intrusion was the final nail in the coffin.

Adaine ends up gathering up all the research to 'return' it and takes it home in secret. Riz's calculations were perfect he just lacked the magical aptitude to cast the spell himself so the elf does it instead.

She finds herself back in the nightmare Mordred manor. See's Riz walking towards the room where he ends up getting trapped and as he opens the door and the mirror Baron used comes into view she shatters it into a million pieces. The next second she is gone. That timeline totally destroyed by the one act of preventing her friend from getting trapped for five horrible years.

{And just in time, it seems. From downstairs, a slam is heard as the garage door closes. Kik listens, trying to gauge what sort of mood Edwin might be in. They get their answer when they hear footsteps approaching, and sit at their desk-- careful not to disturb the Lords-- opening the book and looking like they were working.} (Edwin enters, he doesn't knock, and Kik's head pops up to look at him.) "Hey, kid. Do you want to explain to me why the house is a mess?" (His tone has an edge to it, he doesn't want a response.) {Kik fumbles for what response he might be looking for, something about how they were going to but then got caught up in their research, but he continues before they can manage to say much.}

"And how long have you been working on those same goddamned papers? Have you actually been doing anything or have you just been twiddling your thumbs? Don't you remember that you have a job to do? You know better than that! You're more mature, you're more qualified, that's why you're here, that's why I took you in, because you were good enough. I'm not interested in raising a child, I'm interesting in raising capable adults. Act like one."

{For a moment, Kik is silent. Embarrassment has made their face flush, since they know they have an audience. They... don't really have a response. They try to muster one anyway.}

I-- I'm sorry. I can clean up the house.

(Edwin sighs, exasperated.) "Thank you, Katherine. I'll be in my office. I don't want to be disturbed." (And with that, he's walking away, shutting the door behind him. Kik mutters a 'yes sir' as he leaves.)

The Book

{Ever since Nibblenepphim visited the other night, Kik has found it increasingly obvious that something is different with the Black Book. It isn't responding very well to them anymore, mixing up its own pages and obscuring texts as if refusing to be read. The translation was taking longer than ever, and Katherine felt the pressure from their father to get it done.

And what's worse: They had barely heard from the Lords recently. They couldn't really feel their influence.

What an awful week.

Leaning back in their old wooden chair, the teen tries to reach for any of the Lords with their mind. Sighing, their eyes look to the ceiling, then close. In their mind, they recite the names, hoping that they are still connected.}
