You're depressed and then a girl finds you and you're less depressed and then a gay man walks up and you're more depressed and then a transman hugs you and it acts like antidepressants so you defeat your thematic antithesis.

oops wait was that too interesting

This is extremely helpful omg thank you thank you mwah mwah (platonic mutual kisses)

Y'all, I need help...

I need tips for writing Joel? Cause I've got a Chapter 2 lined up from Joel's perspective where he's coming back on the ship, but I don't know how to write it

If it helps, here's what I've got:

"The ship was in full disarray. The crew rushed back and forth, heaving lines and tightening the sails, throwing the sandbags overboard. Everyone was ecstatic to be returning home after three years at sea, "

Yes that's all that's in the chapter right now and yes I stopped in the middle of a sentence

PLEASE HELP I'M GOING CRAZY BUT I NEED TO FINISH THIS PART AND ESTABLISH THE JOELOTTIAN TRIO BEFORE I CAN GET BACK TO LIZZIE AND HER SHENANIGANS

Hi! Me and my friend, @cheetah-roll have started writing a crossover fic! It is Honkai Star Rail X The Life Series! You don't really need a lot of knowledge of either series, and it's a passion project! If you want to check it out, it would be appreciated! Me and Cheetah are having the best time writing this :DD THIS IS ALSO MY FIRST POST YAYYY!! I don't know how Tumblr works really, but I love everyone here!! <3

idk if i told the full story on here but i signed up for a research study where they were testing a new opioid, and it was supposed to be up to 5 injections increasing the dose to see what people could tolerate

i got the first dose and almost immediately fainted. they had to call in a whole medical team and it was a huge fucking deal

i was kicked out of the study and got a phone call later where they were supposed to tell me what the drug was, so i could avoid it in the future. they told me it was saline water. a placebo. i fainted from the placebo effect.

anyway, it's been a few months and i just got an email from the same department asking me to be a research participant in a new study: testing the effects of open-label placebo.

open label placebo is when the subjects and the researchers all know it's a placebo. they're testing the power of my mind. my power to imagine anything.

i like to think that they chose me for this specifically based on their past experience with me. "get the guy who fainted like a little bitch boy from saline water." anyway i just submitted all my info and i'm looking forward to getting started.

Oh wow, I get to be Siren Lizzie, and I get to have a bunch of magic singing powers, and Scar and Jimmy as friends, and-

Oh. Oh, wait. She is so gonna murder me for stealing her husband.

you are personally and directly hit by a bus¹ and isekai-ed, via resurrection, into the body of the main character your most recent WIP

reblog and tell me: on a scale of 1–10, how screwed are you right now?

¹ this is, transparently, a plot device, so if you are about to tell me "joke's on you, I never leave my fifteenth floor apartment!" then you may rest assured it will have tremendous comedic value when the bus is launched into the sky and crashes through your apartment wall to flatten you anyway

The human ability to Escape From Things is truly unmatched

What a thankless job....

Reblog to unleash this cat on your mutuals

So, let me guess– you just started a new book, right? And you’re stumped. You have no idea how much an AK47 goes for nowadays. I get ya, cousin. Tough world we live in. A writer’s gotta know, but them NSA hounds are after ya 24/7. I know, cousin, I know. If there was only a way to find out all of this rather edgy information without getting yourself in trouble…

You’re in luck, cousin. I have just the thing for ya.

It’s called Havocscope. It’s got information and prices for all sorts of edgy information. Ever wondered how much cocaine costs by the gram, or how much a kidney sells for, or (worst of all) how much it costs to hire an assassin?

I got your back, cousin. Just head over to Havocscope.

((PS: In case you’re wondering, Havocscope is a database full of information regarding the criminal underworld. The information you will find there has been taken from newspapers and police reports. It’s perfectly legal, no need to worry about the NSA hounds, cousin ;p))

You see, Perry the Platypus, when Vanessa was a little girl, she wanted to take estrogen. Of course, I said yes. And since then she’s always been my little girl. Well recently, Vanessa’s school deadnamed her on her reports! Can you believe that!? I mean we live in a fairly progressive area and—hey, isn’t that not allowed in public schools??

Anyway, that’s when I got the idea for THIS! The deadname-eraser-inator! That way, not only will Vanessa no longer be deadnamed, but EVERY OTHER TRANS PERSON IN THE TRI! STATE! AREA!
