For Blue Monday we can't think of anything more appropriate than this charming depiction of a man getting his face eaten off by a leopard. #MosaicMonday

I can only thank Franchesca once again for her patience and generosity of spirit. Time after time she has credited me when it would have been so easy just to let it slide. Please, visit her shop and check out her fantastic designs. shop.franchesca.net

Brief summary of my time on Twitter: Eye of newt does not mean mustard seed, the Easter Bunny is not a pagan remnant, 'blood is thicker than water' is not only half of the 'real' phrase, Samhain was not a time 'when the veil between worlds grew thin', and the black goo is not Deacon's blood

Your daily reminder that it’s OK for first drafts of anything to be rough around the edges, like this original concept sketch for the facehugger in “Alien,” drawn by screenwriter Dan O’Bannon

Performance, line delivery, is music. Without contrast, feeling, sustains, drops, hesitations, dirtiness... the character isn't thinking, feeling, reacting. It's monotone. Unnatural. A lie. But with it, it can break your heart or make you sing.

My favourite fact about Iceland is that we have many, many crime writers but only one forensic pathologist, and he was so busy answering all of their questions that he decided to have a small seminar for writers to get some peace. It immediately sold out so he had another one that also sold out.

problem here so far, as far as I can tell, is that there aren't any real antagonists yet, we look like the villagers in a novel pleasantly going about our boring lives waiting for plot to happen to us

Like not to do my one bit - but stuff like what is happening over at the bird site is how you get a "dark ages". There was a bunch of writing. It has been mishandled. It will be lost. That's all it takes! Now do that over 1200 years. Rich guys have been fucking up since time immemorial.

welcome to all new bluesky users. please keep in mind that it is still in beta. there are many features still missing, so please be patient. for example, you may notice that this app loads posts and then shows them to you, instead of not doing that for some reason.
