No Offense But The Soft Uncertain Kiss Followed By A Pause Where The People Look Each Other In The Eyes

In terms of like, Please For The Love Of God Get Hobbies That Aren't Scrolling Through An App For Six Hours A Day, I understand and experience completely the argument of like. with the stressors of modern work, you don't have the energy at the end of the day to do anything but mindlessly watch Netflix and scroll through your phone. but like I would like to gently encourage you to simply force yourself for a time to do something instead of pick up your phone, bc the phone is literally designed to light up your brain with no effort from you whatsoever and it does in fact rot your brain. It makes literally anything but scrolling on your phone seem difficult and joyless. But if you stop scrolling on your phone all the time, and start like, reading or embroidering or gardening or going for walks, you will eventually find the joy in them once more

I understand and it is true that it is hard to have a life outside work and scrolling but there is not a near future where that won't be the case and you should still live a life. And you won't create a future where that isn't the case if you don't have the confidence and experience and drive to fight for it

Person B: “(Person A) WE’RE ON THE FUCKING HIGHWAY NOW IS NOT THE TIME!”

Resources Wednesday

Today in our Resources Wednesday, we are making a general shout out for @writingwithcolor, a blog dedicated to create resources centered on racial, ethnic and religious diversity. Their incredible team of Mods have important resources for writers, plus they answer questions about writing, as far as they comply to their guidelines. Their site works beautifully and is very easy to navigate, so if you ever have any doubt on any topic, go check on what they already have. We highly recommend you to stop there from time to time to check the resources and asks to keep yourself thinking and learning! We certainly do so <3

Some examples of great resources they have (but there are so, so many more, including those that talk about the importance of diversity, of defying the default whiteness of media, and other topics):

Words for skin tone

Words to describe hair

Stereotypes and tropes, that includes general resources for POC and specific ethnic groups.

Go and give them a follow, their resources are invaluable for everyone, even those of you that don’t write!

Be gay, prevent crime

Let’s go, Pride Knights!

just realized it’s ok if i’m depressed or feel bad or whatever cus that’s life

like my experiences as a human being on this earth so far are collectively trial and error

i’m figuring out how to deal with myself, my emotions, my surroundings, everything in existence

i’m gonna fuck up and that’s ok

cus i’m growing and learning and eventually i’ll get there and if i don’t that’s ok too

i’ll still have memories of everything before and those count for something too

i am as sophisticated as i am childish

love the idea of someone being strapped to a table in a mad scientist's lab, about to undergo horrible and unethical experiments and they look off to the side and there's just some guy sitting on a couch eating cheese snacks and watching tv and they turn to the mad scientist like "who the fuck is that"

"oh that's ted, he's the control group"

HAPPY INDIGENOUS PEOPLE’S MONTH!!!

anyway happy Indigenous People's month, plz don't let it be overshadowed by Pride like it already is.

I'm happy that it's Pride month but these two issues need to be given equal attention.
