Okay, there has been a quote from a blog post going around about the increase of visual description and decline in interiority in novels and prose more widely, which I do agree with, and I think the advice in the full post beyond the link and quoted section are sound and currently relevant. As a prose writer who took a long detour into screenwriting and is a spatial thinker, I do find myself getting caught up in the idea of conveying what's happening on a screen and needing to return to the affordances of the medium, even several years on from writing scripts, and knowing that scripts themselves often have very scant description.

However, I think many of the comments that I've seen going around on that post overcorrect into an idea that any description in prose should be eliminated, especially as they seem to ignore how setting, and conveying a sense of place, plays a role genre to genre. Many novels do not need much description, if they are not looking to create an atmosphere grounded in place, but other stories, and certain genres in particular, rely upon the grounding involved in describing the setting. In Science Fiction and the Mass Cultural Genre System, John Rieder notes that in its full-fledged form, when it began to be used as its own genre, sci-fi leaned substantially upon an "[a]ttunement to such a distinctive handling of the setting" to impart the norms of the world and conceit that satisfied the higher level of audience buy-in that was necessary for the story to function. I would argue that something of this ilk has long been a hallmark of genres in the more speculative realm, fantasy of course being another major one, but also those grounded in reality but in some way distanced, like historical fiction. To point to a few generic hallmarks, Hugo might've been getting paid by the word, but many of the descriptions of Paris and its systems are to an extent important to achieve audience investment in the plight of the poor of the city, and Tolkien's establishment of the feel of Middle Earth is crucial to creating in the reader an echo of the love the members of the Fellowship feel for their homes that drives them on their journeys.

I do think authors should generally be more willing to explore character interiority and not simply write out a blow-by-blow recount of the action that might be taking place on screen, but given how prone writing circles are to taking writing advice as all or nothing, I think it would be a mistake to run with the idea that interiority is the only way a prose format should or can convey the information needed to tell a story, and I'd encourage writers not to apply it unthinkingly or unilaterally to their own work.

Academia tumblr, how do you find your phd topic?

[aro-culture-is]

aro culture is getting really annoyed with the relationships unit in your sociology class because the whole thing is just 100% amatonormativity.

:\

if think your teacher, professor, and/or TAs might be interested in discussing the concept, I have some idea of bringing up the topic?

I'd personally say something like, "Hi, During our section in sociology around relationships, I couldn't help but think it would be interesting to discuss how a sociological theory called "amatonormativity" might relate to these lessons. I gathered a few sources from the professor who coined it, a thesis written on it, and a law review written about the connection between it and laws in the USA. There's some connections between its use in feminist thought and in queer theories, and I'd love to know your thoughts about it. I personally was thinking of when [specific statement] was said, and how I would apply this theory. I hope it's as interesting to you as it is to me."

I want to be isekai'd to Proud Immortal Demon Way to admonish and give a reality check to Shen Yuan Snen QingQiu.

He is an incompetent teacher, and he is negligent in his teachings. He is giving his student manuals while he is in dream-bullshit-land thinking about meaningless things like his miserable life (and not even in a serious way).

Ye ye, he is so worried about becoming a human stick, but he is sleeping on bay leaves, not planning methodologically.

I can't believe he has so many capable students (capable by PIDW standards because, objectively, all of them except for Luo Binghe are talentless, superfluous, and bland cultivators), and he is sitting there, reading stupid poetry, not making any sense, and leaving the teaching aside.

He is not a teacher; he will never be; he is just a pathetic man who redeems himself as smart because he is a literary critic, pretends to be grandiose by knowing a few lines of poetry (that he doesn't understand), and has a mediocre sword he barely knows how to use.

I'm joining a volunteer program to help out in the computer science classes at local high schools. Finally I get to fulfill every young adult's worst nightmare of returning to high school at age 26.

The Critical Role of Accreditation in a Distance MBA Program: Things Every Student Must Be Aware Of

Imagine doing an MBA for two years and spending lakhs of rupees only to find that your degree is not even worth the paper on which it is printed. Scary, right? That is where accreditation comes in. Based on whether it’s Dy Patil Distance Learning MBA a distance MBA by Sikkim, or a distance MBA by Symbiosis Centre for Distance Education, the understanding of accreditation could be what separates…

was thinking about this and i was like what if the teacher confiscated the note when kaido passed it to kuboyasu

and she thinks kaido was bullying kubosai (calling them gay n shit☠️) and passes it up to the matsuzaki since hes the guidance counselor

so he has to figure that out and calls the three of them to talk but he takes one look at kubosais blushing faces and the way theyre avoiding each others eyes after he shows the note and immediately is like "... ah."

not sure if this is a hot take but school is extremely traumatic and needs huge reform. it causes immense damage to everyone who goes through it. no large-scale school system is exempt from this. this happens in all countries, not just the ones where it's worst. this problem's also inextricably tied to capitalism and neither can be fixed without also fixing the other

school genuinely breaks people (and others) with even worse being done to those with intellectual disabilities and neurodivergents and those with other psychiatric disorders

Don't let the distance between where you are and where you want to be scare you out of moving forward.

But how?

This fear is like gravity. I can't feel it pulling me down, it is not prominent. It is not in the top of my head and making me fret every moment. It is not crushing or intense, it is not making me implode.

But it is there. It is keeping me from moving. I am paralyzed without even realizing. It has stopped me from being hopeful, or even looking at the future.

What's the cause? The distance between where I am and where I want to be, rather where I have to be. It is so far because I lagged behind once. And I am lagging behind still because the distance is daunting me now.

It's a loop. One thing feeds the other and vice versa. As time passes, the distance just keeps growing and I am standstill right where I was a year ago. And with the distance grows the fear. I get anxious more and more, and even simple tasks feel monstrous now. It is only a matter of time for me to succumb into the loop: to spiral into a blackhole.

How do I get out of this loop? How do I break this loop? How do I not let the distance scare me? Right now, I am all questions and no answers. I am writing this blog post to lift some weight off my chest and put it out in the open.

What helps you in such moments? Have you escaped the loop before? Or, are you too stuck in a loop like me?

brother i cannot watch shows (fiction or reality shows) that feature people around my own age (aka early 30s). So many people have already been around the world, own their own companies, or at least have been in their jobs/pursuing their passions for 10-20 years, so they have all this experience and stories, and here i am feeling like a fucking 16 yr old cause i've never lived. I feel so stupid and childish all the goddamn time.
