Update :3

ok i think we're out of the woods! most major plotholes have been resolved (at least partially.) i am putting the vampires back in their coffins for a later AU

(whiteknuckling the edges of my mechanical keyboard) I will not fill these plotholes with vampires I will not fill these plotholes with vampires I will not fill these plotholes with vampires I will not

I had to do it.

this is how I feel about kids' games. samey neon 3D art and clickbaity drama be damned I could give Gen Alpha something with Story and Heart

I need to get into mobile game development so I can make puzzle games for middle aged moms. those women deserve better than predatory energy systems and weird fetish ads every 3 seconds. I could be the one to give them something better. I could give them a candy crush clone with SOUL.

hey if you're the type of writer that's like me where you tend to write specific scenes first that vaguely weave together into a plot, you might like using obsidian as a writing app.

my frustration with other writing applications is that i will write my scenes out of order and it's hard to move things around and rearrange them on a regular document.

but with obsidian there's this canvas feature where you can just write all your scenes and plot moments on these little cards that you can freely rearrange. you can color code them and connect them too.

here's the canvas i've created for my current multi-chapter fic: (if you zoom in you can see all the text in each card this what it looks like zoomed out)

as you can see, i color code them based off chapters and will group them next to a document card with the working title of the chapter. anything not color-coded are scenes that don't have a proper place quite yet or it's just world building references. this app can also be good for note-taking and collecting research!

best of all, it's FREE!!! the only downside is that if you want your stuff to sync across devices, you do have to pay for that. i constantly hop between my laptop and desktop so i pay for the syncing. but if you write on only one device it's completely free! EDIT: some reblogs have mentioned that you can apparently link your own personal cloud storage (dropbox, gdrive, icloud, etc.) to obsidian for free! that way you can access your obsidian vaults across multiple devices without the extra fee. i don't mind supporting the devs but just something to look into if costs is a concern.

i typically use it for organizing my thoughts for a first draft. once i get all the scenes arranged and mostly written out, i will copy and paste them into ellipsus (also free & highly recommended as a google doc alternative) so that they're all in one document that i can edit.

bitch ass motherfucking piece of shit drone

god i hate writing for this stupid fucking fandom.

no one knows what the hell is going on. the timeline is all over the place. my favourite character (wet cat archaeologist with visions) gets taken into custody and we never see her again. Some Guy manages to stay young until like 2090. those Fuckass Drones break the laws of physics so hard I have to add magic into the worldbuilding so it doesn't all fall down

Hi I've been stranded on Mars for about the equivalent of 1 Earth week and my crew probably thinks I'm dead by now. It's really boring up here. Is Poob available in space? I have access to a computer but if that doesn't work I plan to dig up and refurbish a rover.

Poob is available in all planets, moons, and dimensions!

So today in "Batshit things happening during the Australian election" - the Liberal Party has dropped a rap diss track about the Prime Minister and shopping prices on Soundcloud, and for those wondering, yes it is the worst thing you will ever hear.

As if that wasn't weird enough on its own, there's plenty of accusations circulating that they made the song using AI, given the bizarre choice of using an American accent in the song, and it's been pointed out that the cover art is parodying a Drake album cover which isn't exactly someone you want to be aligning yourself with in a rap battle right now.

Shoutout to this quote from Channel 7's story when the song dropped:

I need you to understand that when I say "comments are appreciated!" I mean that I will reply to every one of them. I mean that an email with an ao3 notification has a higher priority than a message from my mother. I mean that I will have entire discussions in the comment section if you're up for it. Message me on tumblr and I will have the same discussions on an even more unhinged level. I will dissect entire personalities and ships and fictional political structures and worldbuilding with you. I will become your new best friend. You already ARE my new best friend. At the last battle, I would raise Anduril and say "For my ao3 readers" while a single tears rolls down my cheek, and dive into the fray. I would upload from beyond the grave if someone asked about the next chapter

reblog if you’re okay with people writing fanfics of your fanfics and/or fanfics inspired by your fanfics

This is quite possibly the most photoshopped ad I have ever gotten, and that's saying smth 💀💀💀💀💀💀

a little detail i noticed

Vis's surname at the start of TWOTM is Solus, meaning "one", "sole", "lonely". Presumably, this is a standard surname given to kids in orphanages.

Throughout the book are constant references to his identity issues: the constant lying, his relationship to his names and titles (Vis/Diago, the Telimus surname, the title of Catenicus), everything about the Suus beach episode, etc.

And in addition, the book ends with us seeing multiple versions of him across what seems to be different dimensions.

Here's the synopsis for the sequel, The Strength Of The Few:

Essentially, he goes from having a name that means "lone" to being more than one. I dig the irony (intentional or not.)

snippets from my old writing, about the same time. the story was about a magic student who enters people's dreams to solve mysteries. there's a lot of radiation and Chernobylesque imagery because that was my special interest at the time.

(chanting and pumping my fist like a kid in the backseat) ROAD TRIP! ROAD TRIP! ROAD TRIP!

Some feel-good ideas…

I’ve been longing for a feel-good story. I know RC specializes in fantasy and supernatural thrillers, but we could use something a little more relaxing. No deaths. No cults. No curses. Just fun.

Some possible ideas…

1. Something Friends-ish — MC, 2 female LIs, 3 male LIs all live with or next door to each other. They’re all friends. Or maybe more.

2. Christmas — a small town, snow, gingerbread cookies, ugly sweaters. The whole cliché. It’s predictable but well loved.

3. Tropical getaway — Or the complete opposite. Let’s escape the cold, gray skies (looking at you, HSR, ABH, SC, KFS, ATHWTU…) and head to Fiji. I could really use someplace warm and sunny.

4. 13 Going On 30 in reverse — a woman in her 50s achieves success atop the corporate ladder, only to discover she’s miserable. She gets sent back in time to her early 20s, fresh out of university. She reconnects with old flames, forgotten friends, and some burnt bridges. It’s a second chance to get things right.

5. Road trip! — Some pals travel across country. It could be US, Canada, anywhere that has some diversity. Of course they meet some sexy LIs along the way. It could be cute and romantic or trashy and fun. Or all the above and leave it up to players.

6. Hot dads — is it weird that I want hot dads? They don’t have to be old, but they don’t have to be too young either. I just want a cool, slutty daddy. 😘

Tags for reblog games are welcome!

Similarly, my asks are open if you want to get to know me a little better.

I don't take DMs unless we already know each other.

Anyone can interact as long as they're respectful, SFW (I'm a minor and request that 18+ / mDNI blogs follow their own boundaries) and try their best to keep an open mind ^^

That being said, I do ask that we keep controversy, politics and discourse to a minimum here. While I can have strong opinions, I tend to lose the ability to advocate for myself or articulate my thoughts in stressful situations (like online arguments.)

haven't played anything from the HS series yet but absolutely. Lane is a lot like me tbh

Hmm… Lane is twice exceptional…

In her case, twice exceptional meaning she has a developmental disorder (autism) but is also intellectually gifted.

Can’t believe I didn’t see it earlier…🤔

Some signs:

• She didn’t cry as a baby.

• She was a quiet, calm child.

• Her parents thought she was strange.

• She didn’t play with other children.

• She preferred solitude over relationships.

• The way she played with her toys was “wrong.”

• She followed the same routines.

• She doesn’t fit into social norms.

• She easily recognizes patterns most are unable to connect.

• She has hyperlexia. She is fascinated by letters and numbers, loves rearranging them.

• She can hyperfocus on one thing for hours without a break. Even delaying sex to finish her job! 😂 Poor Dmitry.

The reason I’m thinking about this is because it reminds me of my daughter when she was a baby. She didn’t cry. She was a really easy baby. But she also played by lining things up. She knew all her phonics when she was 2. She started reading on her own when she 3. Sounds really similar to Lane, which makes me like her more. ❤️♾️

yk sometimes I wonder how the YouTube auto-recommendations see me as a person

Context: I'm working on a fantasy/fairytale AU for PHM in which the Hail Mary is a giant ship (the Lightark) and the sky is the ocean but funky. I make these choices because I want to feel.

I don't want Rocky to be anything too humanoid because (IMO) his dynamic with Grace works best as two individuals who have completely different bodies but are otherwise kin.
