Occasionally I start thinking about writing a story about a devoted knightly robot and a cranky wizard ... and then realize I'm just reinventing O14 again

"Not everything has to be gay!" I disagree. Everything needs to be gayer and I won't stop until it is.

A VERY important point -- this bill is not final, not at all. It will now go to the Senate. If the Senate makes changes to the bill (they likely will), it will go back to the House for another vote. The House passed it last night with ONE VOTE. We can stop this. We have to.

Worldbuilder, always.

time to take action and help people in need. you can fund a kit for as little as 10 dollars.

A poll floating around Tumblr asked what the premise of the earliest fics you can remember writing was--and for me, almost all of them were 'same world, but a whole new original cast of characters' Even as a tiny child, my first allegiance was to the worldbuilding.

If you're subscribed to me on AO3, you may at some point soon get a notification of a new fic. I have not written a new fic! +

I genuinely need to write some cozy romance so that I stop worrying whether people will be bored (The Engineers of Radiance is my idea of cozy romance, so ... yeah, there's probably gonna be some death and trauma in there)

Slammed a Five-Hour Energy; was briefly wracked with delusions of invincibility; attempted to run up and down a sheer cutaway, and was very lucky that I only sprained my ankle

Hey, to the person who just scraped AO3 AGAIN--go fuck yourself. Fuck everyone who uses genAI and churns out soulless slop after feeding what was created through love, blood, and tears into a machine and claiming whatever it spits out as your own. I found all my fics on this last scrape--

Well, my original stories (and all the other ones, too) got scraped from AO3 AGAIN. Apparently locking stories to the archive doesn't prevent them from being scraped. I'm strongly considering taking down my original stories.

Apparently five days is all it takes to start fretting that my new writing project is boring and everyone will be bored

Ever since July when the strike started (and my work at Akupara stopped) I've been floating by on just streaming and convention money. I've put off having to take outside help for as long as possible but my savings have finally run dry and rent is due in a couple weeks. ko-fi.com/senabryer

in the last place they ever wanted to return to, sunyaev discovers they aren't as alone as they thought they were. my first gpose comic. takes place during the lvl 50 drk quest "the wages of mercy." cw: dehumanizing language in flashback #gpose #gposers #gposecomic #sidwol #sunyposting (1/3)

Someone posts photographs of modern-day Rattay juxtaposed with screenshots from Kingdom Come Deliverance I recognize the architecture ... from a tabletop wargaming terrain build recreating a different castle from the same game

Look at all those chickens💕 ko-fi.com/hungryghost/... #ffxiv #ffxivmerch

Have at least two hobbies that have nothing to do with your job and that you’re not trying to monetize

Feeling the best I've felt in months. Seasonal affective disorder got me harder than I thought--but also, it feels so good to be outside, working on garden stuff, carrying and pulling and digging. It feels good to finish a task and see the work of my hands. 💚

How did Heavensward end again? ... oh, right

people don't see artists (musicians, writers, crafters, etc) as laborers and that's the entire problem right there people are inclined to see creativity as a hobby or downtime activity, you can't make it actual real work, what rights do you possibly want when you're being a slacker with no ambition

That thing where you're so afraid of being a Reply Guy that you just don't talk to people

was discharged from another hospital stay last night. be it a dollar or a repost, any help would be appreciated as I attempt to stabilize. thank you to everyone who has helped so far, it means more than I can articulate.
