Everything I learn about Rose Wilder Lane makes me more and more aware that she was a hilariously outrageous person who needs a movie made about her immediately.

After leaving Missouri, she moves to California and marries a real-estate guy who once tried to get her to help him con the railroad.

She gets hired at a San Francisco newspaper known for its yellow journalism, where she does things like writing a series of columns featuring the "real-life stories of a police detective" who, in real life, was a high-end jewel thief.

Her first book is a first-person "autobiography" of Charlie Chaplin that she (after a few interviews with Chaplin) completely made up, and that Charlie Chaplin immediately threatened to sue her publisher for.

Her second book is a biography of Jack London, which his wife only reluctantly allowed her to write because Rose presented herself as "someone who had never written for the newspapers before and needs a chance to break into the magazines." This book was also almost entirely fictional, and her publisher also almost got sued over it.

Third biography is the first-ever biography of Herbert Hoover, also a heavily-fictionalized account. (Doesn't seem to have been sued for this one. Steps in the right direction!)

Traveled as a reporter through Europe (to places like Albania and Poland) post-WWI. (If we want to talk about legal things that she did).

Wrote a book based on Laura's late-childhood pioneer experiences while Laura was writing the early books of the Little House series, and did not tell Laura about it. (Laura was ticked off).

Kept trying to insert a story into Laura's memoirs (and Little House on the Prairie) casting Pa as a member of a posse that hunted down the infamous (and never-caught) serial-killing Bender family (despite the fact that this was historically impossible). (It got to the point that Laura herself told this story to the public as an example of "a true story I couldn't out in my children's book." Despite the fact, I say again, that this was historically impossible).

During WWII, endured a minor incident (it involved one cop coming to her house) where the FBI investigated her as a potential communist based on a postcard she sent that was critical of the government. Turned this into a short story that presented herself as the righteously-outraged American citizen fighting against an oppressive government, and used this to whip up a nationwide media campaign against J. Edgar Hoover for spying on American citizens.

Flew to Vietnam as a war reporter when she was in her seventies.

#history is awesome #rose wilder lane #little house #i finally finished pioneer girl perspectives #to think i didn't even want to read the essay about the bender family #i skipped over it and left it til last #cuz i thought it would just rehash the fact vs fiction stuff i've seen covered elsewhere #turns out it was about the history of yellow journalism and provided most of the facts i've listed #(i was today years old when i learned that 'yellow journalism' was short for 'yellow kid journalism')#(and it came from a popular 'yellow kid' cartoon character that hearst and pulitzer both fought over to get into their papers)#also it turns out the bender family was a popular yellow journalism topic (because they'd never been found so people could make stuff up)#usually the stories centered around posses that found and killed them #but my favorite is the story that they made a hot air balloon from a natural gas deposit in a swamp in kansas #and escaped over the gulf of mexico #until their balloon popped and they landed on a passing ship where one of them could make a deathbed confession #history is awesome but the history of fake history is its own special kind of awesome

there is nothing weirder then going into a (mildly) obscure fandom and (mildly) obscure ship on ao3 and sorting by kudos just to see the 500ish word fic you wrote when you were 15 near the top of the list.

glad y’all like it? what the fuck tho

#the narwhal speaks #i guess it was just near the top of the list cause of its age?#but still. holy sjit #was not expecting that #dp #<- since it was for the dp fandom #dont wanna clog the parent tag so ill use my rb tag #by ‘mildly’ obscure i mean like. a 20 year old cartoon that probably hasnt replayed on TV since 2010

OC-tober (late) Day 7: Personality

Guess who finally watched ATLA

#oc-tober #bweirdoctober #bweirdoctober 2023 #oc: fross #oc tag #deni's stuff #deni's art #oc art #i believe artekai would find something to relate to in most of the gaang BUT would not like anyone from the fire nation #bc they're carja coded. yes yes artekai has forgiven the carja but it would still bring back horrible memories #fross tho. pretty sure he would latch onto zuko and only zuko like a leech #i like to think he watches it while in sirius with stanley bc. well. things get boring as an immortal.#so i like to think they start catching up on any old media they have in the apollo archives. just like in general. that's my headcanon #so anyways. they are watching a/tla but then they get to the moment when zuko realizes he betrayed the one person who ever believed in him #and fross is like ''hmm. don't like that.'' so he shuts down the holo and he's like ''welp! too bad there are no more episodes''#and stanley is like. what. it can't end like that. and fross is like hmmm well it does. it does end like that #and stanley is like. there are more episodes in the episode list. and fross is like. ah. well. those are the lost episodes #there was a fire at the. factory. in the archives where they keep the cartoons. they are no more we can't watch them #and stanley's just like hmm. none of what you said sounds right. fross are you okay? i know what happened to your aunt-#and fross is like SHUT UP YOU STUPID ASS!!! THERE ARE NO MORE EPISODES!!!!! sorry i yelled at you please don't leave me 🥺#and that night when stanley is asleep fross sneaks out and wipes out the rest of the episodes from the apollo database #anyways who do you think fross ships zuko with? i have three guesses #one is sokka bc he fits fross's perception of kai best. so it's like shipping frosskai to him #(which is funny because. while kai DOES relate to sokka he would INSIST he's way more of an aang. kai and fross get into fights about this)#the second one is mai because. idk. i see him being into it. can't explain it #and my third guess is just his own oc. he makes his own oc to ship him with zuko #i love the thought of fross having even littler guys of his own LMAO. come one he's lived 900 years he's GOT to have made ocs #oh ALSO i was going to draw stanley in the background but he wasn't turning out like i wanted him to so i just left the anime girl. sorry #OH I FORGOT i also wanted to add. very fitting that i made fross's shadow a prince huh. i think i really did something there

We should bring back that thing some websites used to do where whenever you made a post you could also list a bunch of random details alongside it, like the mood you’re currently feeling while writing the post, what you’re eating, music you’re currently listening to, what device you’re writing the post on, some random emoji, your personal motto at the moment, etc. It’s like additional character lore

#I think you can do this with facebook still like you can put a current mood 'feeling XYZ' BUT you have to choose from their list #of premade emotions. You can't just type your own.#and you can't add a bunch of random extra details for no reason #Also DID websites actually do this? I might just be thinking of one or two. specifically I htink on deviant art (which I rarely ever #used except for one small period when I was like 14 yrs old and thought it would be Professional to post art there lol)#when you made a journal post type of thing I think you could put information like this. And I THINK you could maybe do something similar on #the journals on gaiaonline?? maybe also myspace but I remember so little about mysapce or if they even have a journal #type function. I MISS websites randomly having journals as like..a thing #like you had your normal post feed and then also a diary type place. Kind of like how poeple used to use facebook Notes different #from just a normal facebook post.#If I ever actually do anything successful in my life and somehow defeat the mental illness and physical issues and Situational Barriers #and actually accomplish like.. anything enough to be a professional with their own website (like how famous authors will have #their own websites where they post updates that are NOT social media like a facebook but. their own custom website or whatever)#then I'l make sure that in the code it's set up so whenever I make a post I can add these options ghhbjhb #Imagine some official really imporant release of a movie or game or something and then alongside it it's just like #Feeling: Evil 🤭 Eating: Shredded cheddar cheese Drinking: water out of an old coffee tin #(I had to google some online place to copy and paste emojis ghbhjb i have no idea how they work )#Though also it wouldn't be interesting for me because I have a limited emotional range and also love routine so I'd basically always #feel neutral and just be cycling through the same 5 foods/drinks/music/etc. at all times hjbjjh #I also always wear the same clothes like a cartoon character #BUT it'd be interesting to see about other poeple I guess lol

Man I really need to add my interests to my pinned post or smth but like that's soo much workk

#I have too many interests and if I had to add like #cuz there are things that I know about and that I'm aware of that I'm okay with and or interested in from a far #that I also might rb sometimes but I'm not like actually into it or anything so I wouldn't want someone coming to me to talk abt it #as if I knew stuff abt it #and then there's also stuff that I totally know everything about but I'm not like majorly into it but like I'm still okay with it #like it's still a part of my interests just not that much y'know lmao I just like to know about it #man and then I would have to like update it everytime I get into something new which at times can be Often LMAO #if someone tells me to watch or get into something I will very likely do it and usually within sort notice #anyway and I like to be very thorough so it wouldn't just be like ''current interests'' or anything bcuz I have #y'know interest in cartoons that even tho I don't rlly engage in it anymore since they're old cartoon I still go rabid if I see them #so I would have to put down like every old cartoon I ever watched and I don't even remember then all !!#I don't remember most my interests like I need to keep track of them for myself honestly not just for other people to look @#regardless Imma have to make a list of all my interests 😩😩 even outside of media presence I simply need it for myself

I don't know how DEEP this is culturally speaking, but when I first joined a Brazilian fantasy writing group, there was this guy with "Myrdinn" as a username and I was SURE it was a joke username. You see, "merda" is the direct Latin translation of English "shit". And "Myrdinn" sounds EXACTLY like "little shit" in Portuguese, if you pronouce it with my regional accent.

When doing research for The Chrysopoeia of Victoria Harvey, not only I discovered that "Myrdinn" is Merlin's original name, but I ALSO discovered that it was changed to Merlin by medieval writers PRECISELY because "Myrdinn" sounded like "shit" in Latin. Like, it was not a fun translation bonus. The translator DID say the name of Arthur's wizard buddy out loud, some medieval scholar giggled and the poor man went "oh. OH. We will have to change this if we don't want to arise everyone's inner fifith grader".

But here is the truly funny twist that always ALWAYS breaks me: when I was a teen, when we wanted to say "merda" in polite company, the most used substitution was... "merlin".

#I'm ABSOLUTELY SURE it was a coincidence #it just highlights how similar the words are and how easy it is to make the change #scene cuts to 25th century Brazil and now “merlin” is a synonym to “poo” and the poor wizard is now Martin or something #I had a BLAST reading some Star Wars wikipedia article on Count Dooku because in Portuguese it sounds like “Count of Asshole”#(his name was changed here)#then I entered a list of Star Wars characters and there are SO MANY names which are vulgar puns in Portuguese #to the point that I'm CERTAIN there was a Brazilian intern in the SW writing team suggesting names while giggling like a cartoon villain #I know there are other countries that speak Portuguese out there but this kind of childish long con SCREAMS of Brazil energy #(it's mostly obscure characteres you are safe to say Luke Skywalker or Palpatine or I dunno Jar-Jar Binks in Brazil)#but if a character from an obscure old SW novel be a bit careful

I was makin a tier list of women in cartoons and first of all

there are like 4 types of women in cartoons

1.- The Mom .

Typical mom will have big cake and big lips and possible a short haircut

2.- The Girly

dress always in pink or femme clothing, long hair, could be really mean or just really happy and bubbly

3.- The Dark/Gothic one

Raven coded, just serious bitches, prob or a really good friend that doesn’t show feelings a lot or just a really rude masc girl

4.- The weird one

Mabel coded, weird girl with a lot of energy could be autistic

#cartoons #salem talking shit #women #women in cartoon #daria #gumball #goth #raven #this applies more to old cartoons #tier list #rant
