it's just CRAZY to me that the platform we used to talk to astronauts and find friends and build revolution and help each other through natural disasters is now a distribution system for white supremacy.

1/2 As I focus more strongly on my original work and the fandom space has been becoming somehow even more toxic and awful over the past 6-12 months, I've been seriously considering removing the bulk of my fandom presence from all but some trusted discords.

When you tell the 8 year old not to do something and explain the reason when asked why, and are unexpectedly met with:
"Mmm... That -does- seem like the responsible decision. Thanks."
I.... Is this my child? Is this a changeling? What's happening??

It's the evening of Nov 1st and I'm only just now able to settle in and start on #NaNoWriMo. I've been excited for #NaNo for WEEKS, but this week has already been exhausting and stressful and as I sit down at my desk to write I'm suddenly questioning what to work on and whether I should just sleep

One unexpected thing in my qualitative study w natural scientists (one-hour interviews) is how deeply, deeply sad the climate scientists are. They say things like "you have enough information from us, why won't anyone act?" -- the psychological distress these people are enduring is very great.

Maybe it's just me, but I read these in two entirely different ways.
"Woah" is more elongated in my brain and like when you're pulling up a horse.
"Whoa" is faster and can be an exclamation of disbelief (eg Keanu in the matrix)
🤷

Controversial question:
"Woah" or "Whoa"?
This is important.

Alrighty. I think I have everything I need to start drafting for one of my novels. Except for the protagonist's name. That's exciting!
Maybe I really should get off my butt make that author profile like I was going to way earlier in the week...

So... Everyone that has been holding on and trying to still claim that "but she's not transphobic! She's never said or done anything openly transphobic!" (Even though she really, really, absolutely has) are all going to stop denying her transphobia now right? Right??

A little late with this week's #bujo spread, but I *have* done it! Second last week of the abundance of flowers theme. Time to start thinking about a theme for November.

the flawed idea is that creating art about monstrous things makes monstrous things happen in real life.
When, in fact, people make art about it because it happens.
