been stewing on an analytical approach to fiction which I call "is this book afraid of me?" and in order to answer this question you determine how hard the book is trying to make sure you don't come after the writer on twitter
Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

u survive literally every single event in your life & still every time a new event happens you feel like this is the event that will kill you and that you will never move on from but actually you will continue to survive like you always have bc u have a 100% win rate of surviving events. btw

Okay so when I got sucked into the phantom zone last week while watching youtube shorts a lot of the content it fed me was ADHD tips and a lot of it was either useless for me or redundant but there was one REALLY good tip about taking breaks that wasn't about taking breaks it was about RETURNING from breaks and the tip is: when you are about to go on a break, before you step away from your task (work, craft project, school stuff) decide what you'll do as the first thing when you sit back down at your task and set up your workspace to do that thing.
That means you've got an easy re-entry point to go back to doing the thing instead of sitting back down and having to make a decision or having to reorient from break mode to task mode. You have pre-reoriented and can just go back into working mode.
I've been doing this by circling what my next task on my tasklist is and bringing up the windows that I'll need for the task before I step away from my desk.
Brilliant hack, works great for me, hope it works great for you as well.

There are so many things I’ve wanted to know regarding just how different (or not different) aspecs and allos are from each other, and I know I can’t be the only one wondering such things. So I made a survey open for everyone to take! Whether you’re acespec, arospec, or allo. I need responses from ALL in order for the results to be any good. Anyone can take this, and even if you don’t, reblogging or boosting this survey is much appreciated!
(I’ll probably post results once I get a satisfactory amount of responses. I feel like some of this could end up being valuable to aspec communities!)
Shoulda realized I had adhd that time I misplaced a two-ton vehicle and didn’t realize for 48 hours

I’ve always had it That feeling - of not knowing the reason why I’m here - is too much to handle
I’ve always waited I’ve searched and searched for a place where I felt I could exist and I came here
I’m used to loneliness and giving up I’m coated in sadness and pain If I’m the only one who gets hurt that’s fine by me As long as I can protect what’s important to me
My name is Mob So leave me be
But suddenly you appeared before me Offering me your hand, you said “Tell me, you’ve been suffering, haven’t you?” Mob, oh
The world suddenly brightened up that day And you were there by my side, breathing with me
For the first time I was able to truly cry
I finally understand How to use these powers
Mob, Mob, woah oh Mob, Mob, woah oh
I’m used to being alone, to silence I have no interest in joy or pleasure If I’m the only one who disappears that’s fine by me Since nobody will notice anyway
My name is Mob So don’t come near me
But suddenly you appeared before me You pointed at me of your own free will and said “Tell me, you’re strong, aren’t you?” Mob, oh

If you think the world building in Harry Potter is even close to decent and you’re over the age of 13, you’re in no place to speak on fantasy literature at all. A handful of shiny gimmicks does not good world building make
