struggling through frequent brain fog and the difficulty keeping straight what i've done, parts i've planned, organization, where notes are a few days of clarity but the notes aren't where they should have been so i forget i already thought of some major plot points and do they even work
FanAstraea@fanastraea.bsky.social · 11h agoi unintentionally set up a complicated project for this novel, given that i haven't managed to plan and write a whole novel before

as a connoisseur of men in wigs and extensions i find this unacceptable
Deidre Lynch@drbibliomane.bsky.social · yesterdayYou can/should read Emily Wilson's latest take on the Odyssey, but I'm logging on to convey my hairdresser's reaction. She was AGHAST that Nolan, with his million $ budget, gave Matt Damon ONLY 6 hair extensions. As a result, his hair did not blow around properly, & that ruined the film for her.
“i mean it’s just a little oopsy right” this person gets it
i've imagined Arm doing that "fighting a smile with how much i'm falling in love right now" thing countless times when imagining my fics seeing Bas actually do that even as another character was truly a highlight
I have an outline to work on which means i really want to make gifs which i don't actually enjoy doing, only the result and the freedom to put them out in the world however and whenever i want to
Just listening to and reading lyrics of the songs from The Vampire Lestat season (along with Britney Diamond, THE best reactor) and how is this fictional song for a fictional band one of the best musical takedowns of modern American culture
![[Verse 1]
Congratulations 'M-M-Merica
You really Babe Ruthed it this time
Oh, straight up vampin' is so easy now
I can't tell if anythin' is even a crime anymore
(Unless you're poor)
Congratulations to roofie and murders
To Musk man and old Vlad too
Oh, Harvey LeRoy must be thrustin' in his grave
A hard-on the size of a hot air buffoon, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
It all reminds me of somethin'
Hmm, maybe Louis XVI
Was it Antoinette or Friedrich Flick

hot take but if social media was what it is now and had gotten hold of Ursula Le Guin's comments on HP she would probably have gotten the same treatment as Emily Wilson right now
I think "AI" plumpers should be happy I'm focusing mostly on the nonsense it's doing to my field, rather than how it's very clearly designed as a tool for the capture of wealth and capital by a bunch of accelerationist weirdos enthusiastically huffing their own farts from the depth of their K-holes
The Register@theregister.com · 3d agoSci-fi authors Scalzi and Stross decry AI's dystopian impact on their craft
i haven't been in the mood to make gifs but there are so many moments i want to capture of Bas in When Light Fades 😭
Just finished Octavia Butler's Dawn and once again women writing sci-fi in the 80s were doing genders omegaverse bitches could only dream of
Nathaniel Hawthorne: In my book I invented the Scarlet Letter “A” as a cautionary tale Tech Company: At long last, we have created Scarlet Letter TOS restrictions from the classic novel the Scarlett Letter
Suzanne ✨🌑@tendermiasma.com · 4d agoThe TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us

Sam Cole@samleecole.bsky.social · 5d agoa bunch of popular ASMR artists lost their channels forever this week, after YouTube cited them for violating terms against "sexually gratifying" content: www.404media.co/youtube-asmr...
look at how sweet and domestic they are nothing will ever go wrong for these two
physically and mentally wiped out today so it's time to watch Ep 2 of When Light Fades
Even in pretty solid online discussions, the inability for a lot of (particularly American) people to think about anything beyond "who is allowed to write something based on high level social power dynamics" is incredibly frustrating
Using lists of three is not an "AI tell." It's a common trait in human writing because our brains biologically want to make sure there's always one thing to marry, one thing to fuck, and one thing to murder.
